THE CHRONICLE.

JOHN BRIGHT AND THE EGYPTIAN DIFFI¬
CULTY.
The retirement of Mr. Bright from
Mr. Gladstone’s
Cabinet was for some days looked
upon by many in this
country as a somewhat serious matter for the British
Government.
His position was not
properly understood.
There can be no doubt that he has been a tower of

strength to Mr. Gladstone for
opposition and when in office

•was a
gain rather than a loss to Mr. Gladstone. The
presumption, indeed, is that his presence in the Cabinet
had much to do with that
policy of delay which has
added greatly to the
gravity of the situation.
It is not our business at
present to inquire into the
principles of the great Quaker statesman.
Mr. Bright’s
honesty and integrity have never been called in question,
and, in spite of his opposition on many occasions to the
public sentiment of his fellow-countrymen, his patriotism
has never been doubted.
His principles

finally shape themselves remains doubtful. Mr
Gladstone, however, rightly or wrongly, has been true
to
the principles on which he
originally acted. He has taken
no
undue advantage of the
opportunity afforded by the
success of the bombardment.
Of course he has not
halted
in the work of
preparation to enter Egypt and to
restore
order.
But he repudiates all idea of
conquest, and
invites co-operation.
He reveals no disposition to
rob
either the Sultan or the Khedive of his
rights; and to the
nascent national sentiments of the
Egyptian people he
would do no violence.
He is
evidently anxious to carry
with him the public sentiment of .the
civilized world; and
he is resolved to avoid as far as
possible giving any cause
of

quarrel to the other powers. If the Conference can
help toward the solution of the difficulty, he prefers to

act

in concert with them.

If the Conference

cannot, or
not, help, he is supposed to be willing to assume
the
entire responsibility.
To such a course even Mr.
will

hardly himself object.

If Mr. Gladstone shall succeed

in

restoring the status
in Egypt, and at the same time preserve the
European
concert, it will be to his credit. We are not

making progress towards that end.
France is showing signs of a

The weather has been very unsettled
during the week, and
the fall of rain has been somewhat
copious. It seems, in foot,
that we are abiut to have a very
unpropitious summer. The
harvest of cereals is therefore not

only being delayed, but the

crops are probably suffering some injury, The wheat trade
has in consequence assumed a firmer
appearance. Miller*
have operated with more freedom, and

prices have risen about
It is now being rather generally conceded that
will -not be so good as had been expected, and
will be a disappointing one unless the weather
speedily changes.
The following are the quantities of
grain now afloat to the
United Kingdom: Wheat, 1,887,000
quarters; flour, 178,000
quarters; Indian corn, 301,500 quarters.
During the week ended July 1 the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of
England and Wales
amounted to 19,400 quarters, against 19,371
quarters last year
and 21,470 quarters in 1880; while it is computed
that they
were in the whole
kingdom 73,000 quarters, against 77,500
quarters and 85,8S0 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the
150 principal markets have been 1,746,747
quarters, against
1,621,935 quarters and 1,300,853 quarters, the estimate for the
whole kingdom being 6,9S7,000
quarters, against 6,131,740
quarters in the corresponding period of last season, and 5,228,800
quarters in 1880-81.Without reckoning the supplies of produce
furnished ex-granary at the commencement of the
season, it
is estimated that the following
quantities of wheat and flour
have been placbd on the British markets since harvest. The
visible supply of wheat in the United States is also
given:

JULY

18S2-5

M.

Bonds.—Government

securities have been
active, and the continued fives and sixes and the fours of
1907 have been particularly strong.
The amount of bonds
likely to be presented for exchange into 3 per cents on the
first of August cannot yet be surmised.
The closing prices at the N. Y. Board have been as
follows*

The Money Market and Financial Situation.—For the
latest week reported—that ending with July 15—the receipts of
wheat at the eight Western cities, Chicago, Milwaukee,

Toledo, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louis, Peoria and Duluth, were
1,595,224 bushels, against 1,135,421 in the corresponding week
of 1881. This increase in receipts has but just begun, and in the
previous week, ending July 8, they were only 848,560 bushels,
against 1,044,166 bushels in the same week last year. The
potato crop throughout the country is reported very large, as
the acreage has been much increased, and an abundant jrield
is now almost assured.
With a drop in wheat of 50 cents per
bushel from the highest price made this year, and a drop in
potatoes from $5 per barrel to $1 50 per barrel, the situation of
the laboring man will be much improved, and the reason for
strikes will be greatly diminished.
At the Stock Exchanges in New York and other cities,
the activity has continued, and there are now a dozen
orders to buy stocks for outsiders where there was one
order some six weeks ago.
In fact, it may be fairly said
that since the Fourth of July there has been a more healthy
and active movement by bona-fide purchasers than we have
had in many months past.
On the other hand, we believe
that there are some
washed” sales, by means of which stocks
which have no basis for an advance on their merits are
galvan¬
ized into publicity for the purpose of making a market to sell
on.
Brokers’ customers should be careful about such stocks,
and not get in at the highest prices, after a large advance has
been successfully manoeuvred.
The general situation is good, and the prospect of a heavy
tonnage and passenger business on the railroads during the
next twelve months is excellent, while it is assumed in the
market now that the leading operators are for the present on the
bull side. The main points to be considered, on the other hand,
are the possibilities of
competition from the opening of new
lines this year, the increased expenses of operating railroads,
the considerable increase which has taken place
in many
cases in the yearly
obligations for interest and rentals, and,
finally, the circumstance that on some of the newer lines of
railroad there are still a great lot of stocks and bonds to be
distributed which have never yet left the first hands, into
which they went at small cost, or no cost at all.

JState and Railroad Bonds.—In State bonds the transactions

have been quite moderate, and limited mainly to
Tennessees.
which closed to-day at 58 for the old.
Some of the lowerpriced bonds were also dealt in, such as N. Car. special tax 3d
class at 8@8%, Virginia 6s deferred at 13, Arkansas 6s fund, at 36.
Railroad bonds have been very strong and more
generally
active throughout the list than at any time since the
present

buoyancy in stocks commenced. Some of the lower-priced
bonds, incomes, debentures, &c., have been conspicuous in the
Stock Exchange dealings, and have advanced
materially, as
will be seen by reference to the quotations on another
page.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market
lias been strong in tone with very small reactions from the

steady advance in prices.
The rapid improvement in two
weeks has naturally brought „out a large amount of stock on
which there was a handsome profit to be realized, and the mar¬
ket has not only taken all this without breaking, but shows
a readiness for more; or at all events, it closes

to-day with
highest of the week.
It is useless to make
what the heavy stock operators are going
far it is evident that their strong hands have
been plainly shown, and the campaign of July, 1882,
may be
remembered among the decided bull movements, even if it
goes no farther than at present.
The Street is full of rumors
and bull points about one stock or another, -which may or
may
not amount to something, but they are so far from the realm
of certain facts that they have no claim to a place in our re¬
port. There is, however, one general truth to be remembered
in this connection, and that is, that new combinations,
pools,
consolidations, watering, et id o nine genus, are more likely to
take place when the public is in the temper to buy stocks, and
per cent.
The Bank of England statement on Thursday showed a de¬ buoyancy is the order of the day, than at any other time.
Towards the close to-day there .was a downward turn in
crease in specie for the week of
£12,000, the percentage of re¬
prices,
but a rally in the last few minutes of business. Some
serve to liabilities being 40 3-16,
against 39% last week; the dis¬
reports
of gross and net earnings have been received since our
count rate remains at 3 per cent.
The Bank of France gained

{For the year ending Dec. 31,1831.)
This corporation operates the lines of the Pennsylvania sys¬
tem west of Pittsburg and Erie, and its stock is all held by the
'

Pennsylvania Railroad. The Philadelphia Press remarks upon
the report of 1881 as follows: “The fiscal year of the Pennsyl¬
vania "Company closes with the calendar year; but for some
inscrutable reason its annual report is not available until the
year following is half gone. Nevertheless the business of the
company is of so great importance that it is worth while to look
at the figures as a foundation for what we may expect in 1882.
“The directors say that the company, after providing for all
its obligations, was able to pay a dividend of five per cent
upon its full-paid stock of $20,000,000, and to carry to the
credit of Profit and Loss $1,866,183 01. The company has no
floating debt. Up to the end of the year $385,000 of the com¬
pany’s bonds, secured by Pittsburg Fort Wayne & Chicago
Railway stock as collateral, have been redeemed, leaving the
amount outstanding $2,815,000.
The number of tons moved
upon the lines operated directly by the company increased
2,238,894 tons, or 19 6 per cent over the preceding year, while
the ton mileage shows a further increase of 296,738,915
The passenger traffic also
tons, being 25*54 per cent.
increased over the preceding year, the gain in numbers being
13*69 per cent and in mileage 22*5 per cent.
The gross
earnings of each of the lines show a gain, as compared
with 1880, and an increase in the aggregate net earnings
of $143,061.
The earnings per ton per mile show a re¬
daction on all the lines except the Masillon & Cleveland, but
the expenses of moving the traffic were also reduced upon all
lines except the Erie & Pittsburg, Northwestern Ohio and Mas¬
sillon & Cleveland, the general result, however, being a de¬
creased profit per ton per mile.
The earnings per passenger
also show a decrease except upon the New Castle & Beaver

Valley and the Ashtabula &

Pittsburg roads, and the cost

decrease on all the lines except the Massillon
general result being a slightly increased
profit on that traffic upon all the roads.”
The net result of the operations of the company is thus

remarks

:

several months after the
property was turned over to us it was hardly in condition to
operate at all, and that during nearly the whole period of nine
months we suffered under extremely unfavorable conditions
for handling our business, there remains from this showing no
substantial doubt of the ability of the road to earn its fixed
charges in the future; and your board believes there is a
reasonable prospect that, with the improvements that are being
made and the new connections that are to be formed, the com-

will in time be able to earn interest upon its incomes and
its stock.” * * *
“At the time of the purchase of the
Springfield Southern
Railroad, and the organization of this company under its
present title, the financial scheme adopted embraced the issue
of $1,920,000 first mortgage bonds, which provided
for the
purchase of the road, and left $920,000 to be used in the
improvement of the property, including the completion of the
change from narrow gauge tracks, the laying of new steel rail
on a considerable portion
of the line, the strengthening of the
bridges so as to carry the heavy engines, the extending of new
switches to the different mines and furnaces, and the
purchase
of new equipment. Of this sum it will be seen that
up to
January 1 there was eipended $526,192, leaving $393,807 to be
used in the farther improvement of the
property.” *

speaking of his road as follows: “The New Orleans Pacific

of 325 miles, through the richest, most populous and fertile

The first ninety miles of the line out of
New Orleans follow the general course of the Mississippi River,

which for this entire distance is lmed with some of the largest
sugar and riee plantations in Louisiana, and is densely popu¬

—The Chicago Railway Age had an article upon this subject,
from which the following extracts are made:
“About one month ago we published a summary of the miles of
new track laid in each State and Territory of the Union for tho
first five months of the year, from January 1 to June 30, as fulljr
as it was reported to us.

that the present table
for six months gives an addition of 59 roads and 1,510 miles of
track. This increase, however, is not all to be credited to June,
but is in part the result of more complete returns to us for the
fuil period. How extraordinary has been the work of the past
season in comparison with its predecessors may be seen by the
fact that while it shows nearly 5,000 miles of new road, the
aggregate reported for the same period last year was only a
little over 2,000 miles, and during the same period of no pre¬
vious year has it equaled even that amount.
It is true that a large amount of this tracklaying is the fin¬
ishing up of construction well under way last year, but it is
also certain that a very large amount of tracklaying will be
done during the remainder of the year. Of the 179 lines on
which this work has been done, we find that 131 are still incom¬
plete and in progress. Beside this a large number of roads
upon which grading has been in progress for a long time are
now about ready for the track, and their number probably more
than equals that of the roads which have been finished this

EPITOME.

Friday Night,

July 21,1882.

£The weather has been warm and showery in nearly all sec¬
during the past week, and crops are almost uniformly
reported to be making great progress, causing important de¬
clines in prices of many articles of food. Strikes still disturb
trade and manufactures in the North and West, but some prog¬
ress seems to be making in the adjustment of difficulties.
The
public health remains excellent; the report of yellow fever at
New Orleans is not confirmed. The proposal to reduce import
duties on sugar and the tax on tobacco unsettles for the mo¬
ment the values of those staples.
A good speculation in lard has been noticed throughout the
week, and latterly a better movement in pork was reported.
To-day values were influenced downward by the failure of a
large refining house.
The recovery, however, was quick, and
prices closed strong. Old mess pork sold on the spot at $21@
2112%; new, $22; August options, $21 30@21 35; September,
$21 5u@21 65. Bacon quiet but firm at 13%@13%c. for long
clear. Lard sold at 12*90c. for prime Western on the spot;
August options realized 12,80@12'95c.; September, 12*90@
13‘07/^c.; October, 12*95@13T2}£c.; January, 12'70@12'85c.;
seller year, 12,72^@12,85c.; at the close the market was 2%@
5c. per 100 lbs. stronger; refined to the Continent, 13c. Cut
meats steady. Beef firm at $30@31 for city extra India mess.
Beef hams easy at $22@22 50. Butter and cheese were steadier
and in moderate call. Tallow firm at 8%c. for prime. Stearine
quoted 13@l3>ic. for prime.
Rio coffee has been fairly active and steady on the spot,

July 21, 1882.
The Movement of the Crop, as indicated by onr telegrams
from the South to-night, is given below. For the week ending
this evening (July 21), the total receipts have reached 9,150
bales, against 8,142 bales last week, 9,586 bales the previous
week and 9,288 bales three weeks since; making the total
receipts sinoe the 1st of September, 1881, 4,648,865 bales, against
5,741,407 bales for the same period of 1880-81, showing: a decrease
since September 1,1881, of 1,092,542 bales.

in that country, caused some advance, but on Monday there
was a decided decline in the early months, and evidently there
was an abandonment of the purpose to
“corner” this crop,
which weakened the whole market. Tuesday and Wednesday
were very unsettled.
Tuesday opened lower and closed higher;
Wednesday opened higher and closed lower. Thursday there
was a steadier but quiet market.
Crop accounts, have con¬
tinued generally good, but rains have been rather heavy in the
Mississippi Valley. The first bale of new cotton from Georgia
was shown in front of our Cotton Exchange on Thursday. To¬
day there was some further advance, with somewhat excep¬
tional business at 12 *84c. “no notice” for August. Cotton on
the spot declined l-16e. on Monday and Tuesday, and was
more active on Thursday for export and home consumption.
To-day the market was firm but quiet at 12;t£c. for Middling
Uplands.

2. That, although the receipts at the oat-ports the past week

were
9,150 bales, the actual movement from plantations was
only 5,318 bales, the balance, being taken from the stocks at
the interior towns.
Last year the receipts from the planta¬

general, crop accounts are very satisfactory. Rumors of cater¬

they are of little importance as yet. Texas has been visited by
very beneficial showers.
*
Galveston, Texas.—We have had good showers on six days
of the past week, which were very beneficial, but we have not
had rain enough yet. Good rains have fallen nearly every¬
where in the State.
The corn crop was injured by recent
drought, but sufficiency is yet assured. Cotton crop is very
promising, but in uplands and sandy lands the plant has not
the growth desired for best results. Picking has been retarded
by showery weather. The thermometer has ranged from 70 to
90, averaging 80, and the rainfall reached two inches and
forty-eight hundredths.
Indianola, Texas.—We have had no rain, but fine showers
have fallen in the interior.
Crop prospects excellent. Tho

for July is as follows:
Cotton is reported below an average in every section of tlie State.
This is due to the effects of cool weather, which has prevailed to an
unusual degree this spring. Compared to an average, it is, in north
Georgia, 8 4; in middle Georgia, 92; in southwest Georgia, 94; in east
Georgia, 91 ; in southeast Georgia, 98, and in the whole State, 91. 'J he

Rye has been dull and nominal. Oats, owing to a scarcity and
a corner, have advanced materially, the rise being 5 to 10c. per

GOODS TRADE.

The past week has
developed a more active undertone in the
dry goods trade, with indications of still further improvement
in the near
future. Transactions with the commission houses

individually light, but there

such a large representa •
tation of Western and Southern
jobbers in the market that
business was satisfactory in the
aggregate amount. A fair
distribution of domestics, &c., was made in package lots by
a
few of the
leading
jobbers ; but the demand for assorted parcels

Foreign Dry Goods have remained in the same

buyers for distant markets are
about ready to begin operations for the fall

active movement is expected within the next
fortnight. Mean¬

flannels.
Blankets continue to receive a good deal of attention
from
package buyers, and transactions in both white and colored
makes reached-^ considerably
aggregate amount. Repellents
were fairly active, and there was a limited
call for doeskins ;
but Kentucky jeans and satinets were slow of sale.
For fancy
cassimeres and suitings there was a moderate
inquiry, and
agents experienced a fair demand for small duplicate parcels of
