From the full year’s exhibit, now submitted, it is evident that these assump¬ tions were erroneous, and that the last half-year’s exhibit, far as through its incompleteness or its inaccuracy it paring the two increase its interest In other words, according to the yearly the second half statement, the net earnings for them, was positively misleading. The only really new item in the yearly statement is that allowing $ lid, 000 for a “possible loss on Georgia Railroad lease;” but had the result been what was expected from the half-yearly exhibits the year’s surplus would be suf¬ that. As the Georgia is the Louisville & Nashville and the Central of Georgia, jointly, the total “possible loss” to the two companies would appear to be $220,000. The road having been leased only since the 1st of April, 1881, this would seem rather a large loss thus early in the lease, especially the road has been one of the most profitable in the take care even of as with the last South; and the actual result contrasts sharply remark in the Louisville & Nashville report only October, that it was believed the lease would “return almost $230,000 smaller than actually reported only two short weeks ago. It is claimed that the June earnings have turned out less than expected; but it is really surprising that with but this one month to estimate a mistake of such a serious nature as this should be made.

June when they had really been only $320,893, as would appear from the yearly total ? Accepting these latter figures as correct, however, what is the reason for the extraordinary falling off from June last year,when the net earnings were $573,710?

But the total betterments and $16,409 in “extension of Athens branch,” for the full year appears to be considerably less than that together $223,780.

And if this was the only $10,000,000 trust bonds; and if the increase here noted income of this kind, it is pertinent to ask, what made the represents the total increase it is just about what it was amount so large in the first six months ? What source of generally expected to be. was in that income there the first six months did not exist On the basis of the statement given out for the last six months of the year, showing net earnings larger by over in the second ?

But there would seem reason to doubt the $341,240 in net. Thus there has been progress. The total really unsatisfactory feature in J;he company’s condition, correctness of the exhibit for the last half year, a Equally difficult to more same as a an 90 THE CHRONICLE. have before had occasion to remark, is the enormous addition within recent years to the company’s indebted¬ ness, entailing a large burden in the shape of interest. For instance, in the fiscal year just closed the fixed charges and taxes are reported as $4,054 200 ; in the previous fiscal year they were only $3,079,088. Conse¬ quently, instead of paying G per cent, as in 1880-81, it could pay only 3 per cent. The surplus ($84,256), undis¬ tributed, would make somewhat less than \ per cent more on the stock; and if we add to this the $110,000 of pos¬ sible loss on the Georgia lease, the surplus would be equivalent to about 1 per cent on the stock, which, added to the 3 per cent paid, would make 4 per cent earned as we altogether during the It will be year. that it is the increased interest [Vol. XXXV, .Under these circumstances, and with the freight 'war ended, it is not at all surprising that the stock market has been strong to buoyant during the week.

Now commission brokers report large orders from the interior and greater enthusiasm among outsiders than has been witnessed for many months, or indeed since early last year. Of course the speculative craze has been fostered by glowing accounts of the immediate prospective value of this or that property, and these statements and a little adroit manipu¬ lation have readily enticed purchasers of stocks which under other circumstances would probably not have been touched. No heed has been given to the fact that very many stocks are well watered, that the labor troubles have resuited in losses to the railroad companies, that the eastbound movement over the trunk lines is yet light, that there is likely to be greater competition this fall for'thro ugh busi¬ ness than was ever before known, and that we are approach¬ ing a period of the year when money usually becomes active. Regardless of these and all similar considerations, there has seemed to be but one desire, and that was to get pos¬ requirement eating up the stockholders’ dividends. And this augmented indebtedness is the direct outgrowth of the comj pany’s policy of indiscriminate expansion, in which many roads of doubtful value—badly constructed, poorly equipped, and having but an inadequate traffic—were secured” to the system on far from advantageous terms. In the current fiscal year it seems likely that the interest charge will be even larger. TVe have already alluded to the 10 million trust bonds placed in April.

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 lieve that it between was the back, both when in and we can readily be¬ with mutual regret the official connection two statesmen Bright is opposed to all his views. His bitter cost him his seat for years ; sundered. was But -Mr. and he has never concealed opposition to the Crimean struggle wars ; Manchester at the general election in Mr. Cobden and others who acted with him were 1857. similarly punished. In peace times he is a favorite with the English people; but in war times he finds himself, as a rule, In the circumstances, his retirement very much alone. •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 are’undoubtedly sound at bottom. of War has been one of the greatest curses [VOL. XXXV. tancy which is almost painful to contemplate. How ters will mat 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 could Bright 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 wholly with¬ quo evidence that he is making progress towards that end. France is showing signs of a disposition to take part in the work of protection and of restoring order. It is not out improbable that the Sultan may be induced to send a given number of troops to act for a given time under the direction of the Khedive. humanity. Such an arrangement will It has too often been waged without good leave Egypt practically as it was. It will imply the reason or, rather, for reasons which were radically wrong. abandonment of the country by the foreign troops, at a Tinder the guise of asserting national dignity or defend¬ fixed time, or as soon as order has been restored and the ing national honor, might has in too many instances government re-established. We fear, however, that sooner trampled upon right, and the strong have devoured the or later similar difficulties will present themselves weak. and It it i> well that that there should be a which powerful protest against Mr. Bright has war ; exerted in a standing the interests of will not soon be forgotten. Furthermore, it is hoped that the time will soon come when a community of interest, among the peoples will make war next to im¬ possible. But that is not yet; and things being as they are, it is often a positive wrong to allow the sword to rest in its scabbard. we a presented itself in Egypt, and before, if there has been cause for blame as at all it is to be found in the inaction of the British Govern¬ ment at a time when an exhibition of force would have brought Arabi Pasha to his senses, and thus have prevented the shedding of blood and the destruction of property. It is certainly a misfortune that the necessity should have arisen for the bombardment of Alexandria. But the necessity had - arisen, and the British Government had no choice but to conform to its requirements. The truth is, the necessity existed long before action was taken.

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.

JULY 21, P. 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. The money market has been easy at 2%@3% per cent for call loans on stocks, with some exceptional transactions at higher rates; government bond dealers pay 2@2% per cent.

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 monthly article on earnings published last week. 3,125,000 francs gold and lost 230,000 francs silver.

VV.. {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 per passenger a & Cleveland, the : Net earnings Union Line Bureau Received for rents Monongahela Received for real estate Received for equipment Profits from extension.. 1881. 1880. $650,143 $754,017 23,962 37,500 41,500 15,707 $762,596 $848,724 $1,715,674 .$1,589,543 39,583 42,908 operating leased roads : Pittsburg Fort Wayne & Chicago Valley New Castle & Beaver Lawrence Cleveland & Pittsburj Dividends on stocks Interest on bonds Interest on general accounts 82,176 7,924 Expenses proprietary department Interest on Interest on . registered bonds 44 per cent bonds— 6 per cent Loss in operating leased roads, namely Erie & Pittsburg Massillon & Cleveland Indianapolis & Vincennes $2,262,561 $1,975,016 $297,854 $407,604 305,873 335,872 Total expenses expenses, interest, rental, etc Deduct dividends on capital stock $71,907 175,795 287,044 $61,602 $534,746 $603,799 $233,521 $242,819 21,011 199,185 $19,859 200,000 $1,208,325 $2,866,183 1,000,000 Balance, being the surplus for the year, car¬ ried to credit profit and loss accouut $1.866,183 By balance to credit of this account, Jan. 1.. 3,052,323 Profit on securities above value count sinking funds leased roads 4.091,723 110,031 109,377 395,321 Chartiers Pitts.

Henning, “ When it is remembered that for run 1. 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- 102 THE CHRONICLE. 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.” * No balance sheet is given in the report. [Vot.

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.

Jhe Commercial ^imes. COMMERCIAL Friday, P. M., 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.

On Saturday some views that prevailed regarding affair^ in Egypt, and especially the idea that a serious check may be given to the growth of cotton 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.

Rumors of cater¬ pillars are noted from portions of Alabama and Georgia, but 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.
