INVESTMENTS IN JULY.
great event this month was the closing of the United
loan on the 16th inst., with nearly $66,000,000
taken in this country at par, in gold.
This success, which was
far beyond the expectation of many, may be attributed to three
The

States 4 per cent

things:—1. The growth of confidence in the stability of the Gov¬
ernment, and the belief that repudiation under any administration
would be impossible.
2. To the impossibility of getting any
other satisfactory securities as a basis for the business of financial
corporations or the conservative investment of trust funds. 3.
To the immediate condition of the money market, in which there
is a great plethora of idle money not wanted in business, and
anxiously seeking investment at almost any rate of interest, so
that the principal be unquestionably secured.
Together with
this sale of four per cents, and partly in consequence of it,
there has been a general yielding in rates of interest, and in this
city the large savings banks and insurance companies have made
a common move

to

reduce the rate of interest 1 per cent on real

loans—the former rate was 7 per cent—and now
money is offered abundantly at 6.
Although this movement was
forced by the times, there was still an element of justice and fair
dealing in it on the part of some, if not all, of the heavy corpora¬
tions, for they made it apply to loans previously outstanding,
and offer to reduce the rate of interest to 6 per cent on a re-valu¬
ation of the property.
This change in rates for money will pre¬
sent to the next legislatures of many of our States, the important
question of reducing the rate of interest established by law,
wherever that rate is now too high.
In New York State, 7 per
cent is unquestionably too high, and it is a hardship to debtors
to have interest running against them now at 7 per cent.
The
main question before the Legislature would be as to the perma.
nency of the present decline in interest rates in the money market,
and the possibility that when business revives again, 7 per cent
might not be a fair standard. The better opinion would seem to
be that in New York State 6 per cent as the legal rate will proba¬
bly be high enough for all future time.
A feature of the market dealings in the old issues of govern¬
ment bonds has been the large distribution of these securities
among purchasers of small lots—people who have apparently
been depositors heretofore in savings banks, and who have

and reserving such amount as the trustees may deem
expedient as a surplus fund for the security of depositors, which*
to the amount of ten per cent of their deposits,/ the trustees of
any such corporation are hereby authorized gradually to accumu¬
late and hold, to meet any contingency or loss in its business
from the depreciation of its securities or otherwise.”
The above
paragraph is changed in two respects: “ 5 per cent” is substituted
for “ 6 per cent” as the rate of interest, and “ 15 per cent” for “ 10
per cent” as the percentage of their deposits for surplus.
The
law is also so amended that in determining the per cent of sur¬
plus held by any savings bank in the future, instead of estimat¬
ing the value of its interest-paying stocks and bonds “ at their
market value,” the Superintendent of the Banking Department
is directed to estimate as follows: “ Its interest-paying stocks and
bonds shall not be estimated above their par value,or above their
nearest market value if below par.”
Another important modifi¬
cation is made.
The banks are required to report their condition
semi-annually to the Superintendent, instead of once a year as
formerly. These reports are to be submitted on or before Feb¬
ruary 1st and August 1st every year.
An additional guard for the
depositors is provided in the following clause added to section 45:
It shall be the duty of the trustees of any such corporation,
as often as once in each six months during each year, to cause to
be taken an accurate balance of their depositors’ ledgers, and in
their semi annual report to the Superintendent of the Banking
Department they shall state the fact that such balance has been
taken, and shall state the discrepancies, if any, existing between
the amount due to depositors as shown by the general ledger.”
The amendments took effect July 1, 1877.
The railroad strikes in the last week have naturally exerted a
expenses

“

depressing influence on prices of railroad stocks and bonds; but
so universally are they regarded, among thinking men, as tem¬
porary and impossible to have any success as a power to direct
railroad operations in the future, that the present effect on prices
has been far less than might have been anticipated.
There is no
general sympathy with communism amoDg the mechanics and
laboring classes of this country, and the line of demarkation has
got to be very clearly drawn between the right to strike and quit
work, and the assumed right to dettroy or steal the property of the
employer and kill the new employe.
The

business

in

Western

has

been

decidedly active, and both the mortgage companies and the
firms of bankers
engaged in placing loans, have done
a
good trade.
The decline in rates of interest in other
directions has also been noticed here, and in most of the
favorable localities at the West the borrowers are not inclined to
pay over 7, 8 aDd 9 per cent, where
to 10 per cent, and sometimes even

formerly they readily paid

of distrust was thrown over Illinois loans when the Legislature
passed its silver bill, but as that never became a law, the question
as affecting the payment of mortgage loans never cjime up.

the Sta; e's obligation to the bhndholders was before
the United States Supreme Court, ai.d decided in
December, 1875, (V. 21, p. 591), in favor of the
State; no interest has been paid on these bonds

Georgia.—The State Legislature and a constitu¬

issues of bonds and railroad endorsements which
were claimed to have been tainted with fraud, and
the above statement is made of the recognized debt.
The So. Ga. & Florida Railroad also has $464,000 of
bonds endorsed, but the Company pays interest and
the road is estimated to be nearly worth the bonds.
The total State debt is $11,109,500, and there are
assets valued at $8,050,000.
Assessed value of

property in 1876 was as follows: Lands, $91,855,772;
