So with the Insurance Superintendent. Although neither
of the two was under obligation to have the gift of
prophecy, it was his duty to understand, in 1874, that the
financial trial must have its effect on the life insurance
business; and while new companies were forming, and the
volume of business was doubling and tripling annually, it
was his part to perceive that this was an unnatural forcing which could not last. Seeing this, he could have
urged the Legislature to remove the dangerous facility
the law gave for new organizations; he could have
thrown his influence against the unhealthy competition;
he could have watched the companies, particularly the
younger ones. The first incumbent, whtfse ten-years*
term ended in 1860, was probably the most at fault, for
done well at all, and has almost been a failure. Upon
both these classes of corporations the speculative mania
which rose in 1862, and feljl in 1873, has been allowed to he took everything for granted, sailing with the current,

At the weekly sale of bills on India, held at the Bank of England on Wednesday, a better demand for the means of remittance
to the East waB indicated, and the price obtained was Is. 8|d. the
rupee. Tenders on Calcutta and Madras for bills at that price
received about 10 per cent, and all above in full. On Bombay, at
that quotation, 50 per cent of the tenders was accepted.
The silver market has been firm during the week, and fine
bars are now worth 54Jd. per ounce.
On the Stock Exchange, an impatient feeling has prevailed.
The retreat of tbe Russians in Asia and the slow progress which
the invasion in Europe appears to be making, seem to have confirmed the belief of those who were in favor of a protracted war.

Very small supplies of English wheat are now offering, and as>
we require weekly some 350,000 quarters of foreign wheat and
flour, a firmer tone has pervaded the trade, and an advance of
some 2s. per quarter has recently been established throughout theKingdom. The weather has been favorable for the growing?
crops, and a fair average harvest in Europe is anticipated.
The deliveries of home-grown wheat are now reduced to very
small proportions. During the week ended July 8, they amounted
in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales to only 17,974

government bonds, considering the disturbances of the week,
and the prices in currency have shown little fluctuation with the
changes in gold. There is some speculative bu siness in fivetwenties, but the demand from regular investm* nt buyers has

by the shorlH. This strength in a leading stock, with the dov better tone as to railroads, gave quite a buoyancy to the
market, which whs lmrdly warranted by any circumstances pertaining to the actual value of stocks. There is a feeling, however, that the bottom must have been reached with railroads, so

The business of the past two years has also seemed to demonstrate the fact that the fast freight lines, whether those formed
by the partnership with the railways in the cars, &c, used upon
them, or those which are independent joint slock companies, cost
the railway entirely too much to be paid for by any benefits
received.
The cars owned by the company and kept on its own
line in general freight business have been made to earn each
over one thousand dollars per annum, whilst the cars in the fast
freight lines have only earned about five hundred. This business
could have been done quite as Well had the trunk lines been
willing to co-operate in a simple but effective business interchange of freights, without the cumbersome and expensive
organization of the fast freight lines and their disproportionate

The Receiver turned over the possession of the property
and its management to the purchasers, John W. Ellis and
others, trustees, on the first day of January last. The new
Wabash Railway Company was organized soon after, and is in
complete control and operation of the road.

was $1,328,584 greater thau that of 1876, it did not meet
tbe expenses of that year by $161,361, while the smaller revenue
of 1876 was $467,090 in excess of the expenses, making tbe difference of $628,452 on the net result in favor of the year 1876.
The most striking peculiarity of the freight business of the
Wabash Railway is found in the comparatively small difference
between the local and through rateB. This is occasioned by the
fact tbat the line being a diagonal one between Lake Erie and
St. Louis, it is cut at very numerous points by East and West
" Competitive "
lines which are in direct competition with it.
points, therefore, are almost as numerous as the counties through
which the road runs, and the rates from these points being necessarily " through" rates, no very marked difference can be made at
tbe few small stations intervening. This is a fixed fact in regard to
the business of the road which cannot be removed, and must be
taken into the account whenever the character of the road is
analyzed. This difference, however, 'bough comparatively small,
is of serious importance when it affects a large volume of business, and the policy steadily pursued for two years past of localizing tbe business as far as possible, shows its fruit in the
increase of the proportion of freight carried at local rates to that
carried at through rates, which has been attained without sacrifice of any class of business.

Buchanan County, Mo. The authorities of Buchanan County,
Mo., in which the city of St. Joseph is situated, have failed this
year to make any provision for the annual interest due on the
bonds issued by the county, in 1869, to the St. Louis & St.
Joseph Railroad Company, and have retained attorneys to defend
the county against Buit for such default. The interest has been
paid by the county for seven years.
Chicago & Lake Huron.— In Detroit, Mich., July 10, the TJ. S.
Circuit Court granted a decree of foreclosure under the mortgage
of the Port Huron & Lake Michigan road, which covers the line
from Port Huron to Flint, 66 miles, the decree being granted at
the suit of the Union Trust Company, trustee. Subsequently a
supplemental bill was filed by certain bondholders to set aside
the decree, and for leave to file a new complaint, making the
Chicago & Northeastern Company also defendant. The bill also
asked that the present receiver, W. L. Bancroft, be removed, and
a new receiver appointed. The complaint in this bill alleged
fraud in the management, to the detriment of bondholders' rights.
It set forth that the Port Huron & Lake Michigan Company had
acquired right of way for the 45 miles between Flint & Lansing,
and had done work to the amount of $300,000, all of this property
being covered by the mortgage; that a new company, the Chicago
& Northeastern, was organized and took possession of this property without paying therefor ; that this company had only a
nominal amount of stock subscribed, and built its road really at
the expense of the Chicago & Lake Huron Company; and, finally,
that a land grant of 36,000 acres had bet n disposed of in some
manner unknown. The bill further asked that the Port Huron
& Lake Michigan mortgage be decreed a first lien on this 45 miles
of road from Flint to Lansing.
On July 17 the Court gave its decision, refusing to allow the
relief asked for in the supplemental bill, on the ground that its
allegations were not supported by proof, and that they were
sufficiently disproved or explained.
In order, however, to give
an opportunity for bringing further proof, and also for examining the accounts of the receiver, it was ordered that the foreclosure sale should not take place until the middle of September.
The Court was also of opinion that the mortgage does not
cover the Chicago & Northeastern road. It. R. Gazette.
Colambns & Hocking Valley.— 1 he Ohio State Journal says
that the stockholders of this company, at their last annual meeting, had under consideration the reported discoveries of large
and valuable veins of iron ore in the territory tributary to their
road. They instructed the directors to have a thorough and
reliable examination personally made by a committee of the

would warrant the building of one or more branches, that such
branches should be forthwith built, to rea.ih points where the
land-owners were about to build, or were actually in progress of

A committee of directors most largely interested as stockholders, and quite conservative in their notions, made the examination, and became satisfied that existing facts and assured pros
pecta would warrant the building of at least two branches at this
time. Thereupon the construction of the Monday Creek and
Snow Fork branches was ordered. They are now being constructed, and the track will be laid on a part thereof within
the
coming month.
At the last meeting of the directors, they determined that rather

Court, Chambers, this week, on a motion to vacate an attachment

the bonds were $500,000 of what is known as sinking fund convertible bonde. Default was made iu 1873 iu the payment of

—The Vermont Supreme Court has ordered
Union Trust Company, as truson August 1. The mortgage dateB from 1867, when T. W.
Park and H. H. Baxter borrowed $500,000 from Commodore Vanderbilt to complete the road to Chatham Four Corners, to connect
with the New York and Harlem road. This loan was secured by
a mortgage to the Union Trust Company. Default having been
made in interest, the trustee began suit to foreclose iu 1870,
and the present decision is in that suit.
Iowa Railroad Tariff Law.— The late "granger" decision of
the United States Supreme Court, made a few weeks since, has
been crowded out of the Chronicle, as matter that would
keep, and because the principle involved was fully settled in
the cases previously decided. The title of this suit is the Chicago
Burlington & Quincy Railroad Company, appellant, vs. M. E.
Cutts, Attorney-General, etc., et al.; appeal from the Circuit
Court of the United States for the District of Iowa. The opinion
states, in substance, that railroad companies are carriers for hire.
They are incorporated as such, and given extraordinary powers
that the road be deHvered to the
tee,
in order that they may the better serve the public in that
capacity. They are therefore engaged in a public employment
affecting the public interest, and under the decision in Munu and
Scott vs. the People, just announced, subject to legislative control as to their rates of fare and freight unless protected by their
charters.
The Burlington & Missouri River Railroad Company, the benefit
of whose charter the Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad
Company now claims, was organized under the General Corporation Law of Iowa, with power to contract in reference to its
business the same as private individuals, and to establish by-laws
and make all rules and regulations deemed expedient in relation
to its affairs, but being subject, nevertheless, at all times to such
rules and regulations as the General Assembly of Iowa might
from time to time exact and provide. This is in substance its
charter, and to that extent it is protected as by a contract. Whatever is granted is Becured subject only to the limitaiions and reservations in the chart.-r or in the laws or constitutions which
* * *
it.
But when the Legislature steps in and prescribes a maximum
of charge, it operates upon this corporation the same as it does
upon individuals engaged in a similar business. It was within
the power of the company to call upon the Legislature to fix
permanently thiB limit, and make it a part of the charter, and if it
was refused, to abstain from building the road and establishing
the contemplated business; if that had been dene, the charter
might have presentel a contract against future legislative interference but it waB not, and the company invested its capital,
relying upon the good faith of the people and the wisdom and
impartiality of legislators for protection against wrong under the
form of legislative regulation.
It is held that it does not affect the case that before the power
was exercised the road had been leased and its income pledged to
the payment of its debts, and that as the road was wholly within
the State the latter had full power in the absence of legislation
by Congress.
Louisiana State Bonds.— The New Orleans Picayune says:
" By agreement between relators and the State's attorney, the cases
of the State ex rel. Forstall, vs. the Board of Liquidation, and
State ex rel. J. Mathers, Jr., vs. the Board of Liquidation, were
tried by the Supreme Court sitting at Monroe.

For future delivery some further improvement was noticeable on

Liverpool advices and improved crop accounts but yesterday
some irregularity was developed; after sharp fluctuations the
close was at a slight decline for the early months, and a corresponding advance for the winter months, which may be accounted
for by the consideration that the latter were relatively too low.
Liverpool advices have been drooping, and crop accounts, asreported to the New York Cotton Exchange, generally favorable,
though possibly an excess of rain may have fallen in Alabama
and Mississippi. The temperature, latterly, is pretty high. Today, there were rumors of a purpose to "corner" the market on
the early months, and they were la higher, but the later months
did not improve much.

that some of
the demand for home consumption is due
to the delay by the
railroad strikes, in the receipt of
cotton shipped to mills
overland from the Southwest.
The principal transaction
for export was 3,000 bales on Monday
afternoon for
io-day,
there
was
a
good

Weather Reports by Telegraph.— The development of
the crop the past week has been generally satisfactory. The
temperature, however, is not in the average as high as desirable,
especially considering the backwardness of the plant and at
Memphis and a few other points, less rain would seem to be
desirable.
From Galveston we learn that caterpillars have certainly appeared, though the injury done is limited excepting
beyond the Colorado River, where much damage has been done.
Galveston, Texas.
It has rained on three days of the week,
(showers) with a rainfall of twenty-five hundredths of an inch.

The continued

With regard to the future prospects very much of course depends upon the progress of the European war and upon our
crop and yet the position of cotton is statistically very strong,
and the chances favor a Btrong market, if not a al ill further
advance in price. One circumstance, however, is working against
price and that is the increasingly threatening position the nation of Europe hold towards one another.
It does not relieve the
situation to prove that England is not likely to become a party
to the war, so long as she is doing what is generally construed
as tending in that direction for her acts under such circumstances paralyze enterprise almost more than war itself. Of
course, while this lasts, and so long as our crop reports can be construed as favorably as they can be to-day, European spinners will
take not a bale more than they actually need at the moments
and if the political aspect continues as threatening as at present,
European consumption will very likely be, for a time, to some
small extent decreased.
To show, however, how slight the
margin between the probable supply and demand during the
next three months, we insert Mr. Ellison's estimates for those
months. As to American supply, the better opinion here would

From the foregoing it appears that the takings by spinners
during the month of June have been 450,819 bales, against 409,836 bales for the same month of last year. Through the balance
of the season to October 1, if the political situation in Europe
remains unchanged, there is likely to be a constant small increase
in the takings compared with 1876.

Flour has met with a pretty good export demand, mainly at
$0 10@G 40 for common extras, but including the better grades
at $7 50@8.
The choice grades have been dull, with prices

spirit,
while considerable quantities of seasonable
Foreign good*
have commenced to arrive in liberal quantities, but as yet their
movement has been very slow. Despite the inactivity of the
past week, values of' staple domestic cotton and woolen goods
were steadily maintained, and there was no pressure on the part
of agents to make sales under existing circumstances.
Domestic Cotton Goods.— The exports of cotton goods for
the week ending July 25, reached 3,500 packages, which were
shipped as follows China, 1,734 packages; Great Britain, 1,065;
Brazil, 230 D. S. of Colombia, 231
Mexico, 176 New Zealand
27 British West Indies, 20; &c. Brown sheetings and drills
were in steady though moderate request, and prices ruled firm.
Bleached shirtings were in comparatively small demand, and
wide sheetings remained quiet. Cotton flannels were sold to a
fair aggregate amount, but corset jeans and satteens were lightly
dealt in, and colored cottons were sluggish aside from cheviots, in
which there was a fair movement. Grain bags continued in
good demand, and the late advance in price was fully sustained.
Print cloths remained dull and nominal on the basis of 4£c,
thirty days, for extra 64x64s, 44jc. cash for standards, and 3fc. for
56x60s. Medium and dark fancy prints were placed in moderate
lots with local and Southern buyers, but the Western demand
was light and unimportant. Ginghams were in fair demand and
:
;
;
;
steady at current prices.
Domestic Woolen Goods.— There was a comparatively slugmovement in men's- wear woolens, but flannels and blankets
were in fair request, and there was an increased demand for
Brussels and iDgrain carpets by local and interior jobbers.
Worsted coatings were less active, but agents still hold fair
gish
orders for these fabrics, and prices are firmly maintained.
Cassi-
meres were distributed in moderate quantities in execution of
former orders, but new business was light. Such, also, was the
case with overcoatings.
Cloths and doeskins were relatively
quiet, and there was not much animation In satinets or Kentucky
jeans, though fair quantities of each were placed with the Southern trade. Repellents were fairly active in grades ranging from
about 50c. to 90c, but finer qualities were sluggish. Worsted
dress goods were taken to a moderate amount by buyers from
remote sections of the interior, and there was more inquiry for
felt and Balmoral skirts, but shawls remained quiet.
Hosiery
and shirts and drawers were distributed to a liberal aggregate
amount.
Foreign Dry Goods.— There has been no material improvement in the demand for imported goods, though a few styles
were taken rather more freely by the Southern trade and looal
jobbers. Cashmeres, drap d'ete and pure mohairs were in moderate request, but iancy dress fabrics dragged. Silks were in
limited demand and steady.
Linen goods ruled quiet but firm,
and white goods moved slowly, but embroideries were in fair
request. Men's- wear woolens were devoid of animation, but
there was some inquiry for Italian cloths and satin de chenes.
Gloves were in moderate demand, but hosiery ruled quiet.
We annex prices of a few articles of domestic dry goods
