It appears that the net earnings have been sufficient to pay the interest charges. It will be observed that the statement of operating expenses does not include the items of taxes and insurance. The taxes, under the charter, are two per cent of the gross earnings, equal for the nine months to |5,741, and the insurance amounts to about f 500 more. They are omitted, although it is much better, according to the custom of many railroad companies, to include them in their published statement of operatexpenses. If these items had been included, the statement would show for the first nine months a small deficiency of f4,434, though this deficiency it is expected will be more than made good in the month of July. The company has now completed and in operation 130 miles of railway, from St. Paul, Minn., to Manly Junction, Iowa, where it connects with the Central Railway of Iowa. At the town of Lyle, 109 miles from St. Paul, it also connects with the Iowa lines of the Illinois Central Railroad Company. With both of these companies it interchanges traffic. The line from St. Paul to Lyle (109 miles) was completed and put in operation Oct. 2, 1885, and has since been operated by the company. The line from Lyle to Manly Junction (20 miles) was comfileted Dec. 1, 1885, and is operated by the Central Railway of owa, under a lease coupled with a traffic contract for ninetynine years. The report of the President, Mr. A. B. Stickney, of St. Paul, The mg says " The Chicago St. Paul & Kansas City Railway Company, owning a line from Waterloo, in the State of Iowa, to Des Moines, the capital of the State, a distance of 115 miles, having entered into a contract to extend its line northwesterly from Waterloo to a junction with the line now under construction by this company, and also from-Des Moines southwesterly to St. Joseph and Kansas City, in the State of Missouri, the directors have entered into a traffic contract with it similar to the contract now existing between this company and the Central Railway of Iowa. It is estimated that the revenue derived from traffic interchanged with it, taking into consideration the longer haul,' will be much larger and the business more profitable than the business with either the Central of Iowa or the lUinois Central.'" The relative positions of the four companies, namely, the Minnesota & Northwestern Railroad Company, the Illinois Central Railroad Company, the Central Railway of Iowa, and the Chicago St. Paul & Kansas City Railway Company, will be more clearly understood if a map of the Minnesota & Northwestern is hereafter published in the Investors' Supplement. " The company has now under construction a line from a junction with its present line at the town of Hayfield, 81 miles from St. Paul, to Dubuque, Iowa, a distance of 'iTi miles. The work has so far progressed that the directors are assured it will be ready for operation by the first of October next. It will connect St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota, with Dubu<iue, Iowa, where a connection is made with the Illinois C+-ntral Railroad for Chicago. The latter company has heretofore used the lines of the Chicago Burlington* Quincy for a portion of the distance, namely from Forreston to Chicago. This arrangement terminates with the end of this year, and the comjiany has commenced the construction of an independent line from the city of Chicago to a junction with the Illinois Central Railroad, 'near Freeport, 111., a distance of 10!) miles, which it hopes to have ready for operation bv the first of January, 1887. When these lines are completed, the company will own a continuous line of railway from St. Paul to (Chicago, 430 miles, except a section between Dubucjue und Freeport, 68 mUee, owned by the Illinois Central, which it intends to use under an arrangement with that Cash on hand July 1, 1885, as per last report From rem of railroad (on account) From rent of real estate From notes receivable, paid From interest ou notes and from deposits $46,886 240,000 2,167 4,311 In bank 382 Cash borrowed temporarily, averaging 27 days' time Discount on old claims bought In and charged at face..

President Clement's report is brief. He mentions the decision in the company's suit declaring valid the certificates for 3,970 shares of preferred stock issued to Mr. Clement in December, 1882, and January, 1863; the discontinuance of the Company vs. Page, and the statement that up to date about $69,412 of the rent reserved in the lease of the road has been withheld by the lessees on the ground of the amount of taxes apportioned by them to the Rutland Company, under the present statute for taxing the gross earnings of railroads. The company^ claims that such retention is without right, and that it is entitled to receive the full amount of rent stipulated in the contract. QuicksilTer Mining Company. ' company."

The annual report states that every effort has been made during the year just closed to accomplish two results, to wit " to maintain as nearly as possible our average production of Quicksilver, while at the same time prospecting in every direction of promise for new ore bodies. The former of these results has been substantially reached in regard to the latter, we can say that in some directions the indications are very hopeful indeed, but that in most we have not yet reached objective points at which profitable results are looked for. These explorations are now being carried vigorously forward. In this connection it is proper to say that while we have made explorations covering more than a full square mile in surface, and nearly half a mile in depth, still we have opened but a very small portion of the property of your Company which is supposed to be charged with the ores of quicksilver. We have produced during the year 20,000 fiasks of Quicksilver. The price, as we last year hoped it would do, has ruled slowly but steadily higher, and there is stiU reason to expect a considerably greater advance." The production of the year was ; 20,000 flasks.

The speculation in cotton for future delivery at this market has shown leas spirit for the week under review, and a material d-cline in prices. The adverse reports from the AgricuUural Bureau and from the National Cotton Exchange regarding the condition of prospects of the g^wing crop on the 1st of July were regarded as somewhat exagg:erated, or at least modified by tha recent brftter weather, and proved to have been wholly " discounted " in the views of speculative operators. A heavy selling movement followed, promoted by lees favorable reports from Liverpool and Manchester. Under these influences the advance of last week wss fully lost. Yesterday, in tbe later dealing*, there was a sharp reaction toward better prices. To-day the Liverpool report, though stronicer, was disappointing to tite " bulls," and yesterdav'a late advance wai lost; but there was a partial recovery ana a feverish closing. Cotton on the sp jt was active for home consumption, with a moderate export early in the week, but became quieter, with prices favoring bayers. until yesterday, when at a declme of 1-lGc. then was a revival of activity for export. To-day the market was steady but quiet at 9^c. for intddliog uplands. Low gradea ato becoming scarce. The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 459,000 bales.

In these States— embracing the Cirolinas, Georgia, Alabama and Misi-sippi the bottom lands pariicularly have suffered severely, and the fertile black lands have lost much of the prospect thpy had. Over most of these States the early spring was cold and a bad start was made. May conditions were not good, and June bas again lowered them a little and rendered the outcome more critical. Still, over this area, embracing as it does so large a percentage of upland, with favoratile conditions in July and subsequently that is, seasonable showers, allowing (arm work in clearing out grass, and the absence of hot, dry weather to bake the saturated soil and Bco:ch the plants, which have been rendered unhealthy by extreme moisture, there is room for improvement. It is to be noted that the insect ravages usually accompanying these meteorological conditions have beea slight, and stwnds, which were not very good to start on, have not been impaired on that account. Over all this district the crop IS late, and therefore exposed to the vicissitudes of the fall season. In the noithern portion of the belt, however, Tennessee had a good start, and has held her own pretty well, and North Carolina is better than the coast disirict below her.

A large part of the cotton planted in bottom lands has been washed away by the floods. RuBt, shedding and lice have attacked the cotton in some regions, and in others the incessant rain has turned it yellow, and it is dying. The condition of the cotton in upper Carolina, with 100 as an average, is reported at 73, in Middle Carolina at 76 and lower Carolina at 85, making an average for the State of 78, against 96 for the same time last year.
