Thirdly, there

a further reason for ample reserves
banks throughout the country are
looking forward with some anxiety, not unmjxed with a
wholesome fear, to the approach of specie payments. It
has been affirmed that the national banks are hostile to
resumption. So far as we have observed, this charge is
without confirmation. The fact is that ir.any of the
chief authorities among our banking community are firm
advocates of a sound monetary policy, and the whole of
our b.inking system is being conducted with a view to
the early resumption of specie payments. Of this conservative policy, one of the essential conditions is the
holding ©f an ample cash reserve by all our banks.
There is, however, another tendency which also begins
to show itself at this season in our banking community.
Money is generally so easy, and the rates of interest rule
BO low, that a great number of bad loans are apt to be
carelessly and mischievously made. " During the months
of July and August,' it has been said, " more bad business
is done by our banks than during any other two months
of the year." It was even affirmed that most of the
loans which crippled some of our banks in the crisis of
1873 were made in the months of July and August of

most notable growth might be looked for.
Turning now to the report of the Committee, we find
that they trace the fall of silver to two chief causes, the
decline of the effective demand and the augmented
pressure of the supply on the market. As to the first
point, the demand for silver has fallen off from various

But
since the con-

the yeans 1868-72 England sent to India an average of
£10,000,000 in silver and of £7,400,000 in bills. In
1872-6 the average was £4,100,000 in silver and £12,000,000 in bills. Furthermore, it is' said that the proportion of silver

of the most timely and instructive documents
which has been prepared on the silver question is the
report of Mr. Goschen's Committee, appointed by the
British House of Commons to inquire why the price of
silver has fallen, and what effect the fall has j)roduced
upon the exchanges with India. Although the report of
the Committee has not been officially published, portions
of the evidence it has collected have transpired from
time to time, and we have before us the copclusion of
the report, containing the inferences deduced by the Committee from the testimony of bankers and numerous other
men of experience who were summoned before them.
It is premature to express any very definite dpinion as
to the manner in which the Committee have fulfilled
their task, but it does appear to us that some important
departments of the inquiry entrusted to them have been

Moreover, India has a large trade with China, rendering

principle prove true, the

will receive a notable enlargement.
In the second place, the Committee give a very elaborate and full account of the enormous increase in the
supply of silver pressing on the London market. This

from causes, some of which are temporary. The chief

that the increase of the gold supply poured new life into
the veins of commercial industry, and thus enriched
the nations of Christendom, instead of embarrassing
and impoverishing them. Gold did, indeed, depreciate,

As a consequence partly of the appreciation in gold and

natural result. Such vast amounts of capital are now

There still seems to be a general desire amongst manufacturers
to work short time, and it is very probable that in the cotton trade
an early announcement will be made closing all establishments on
Friday night and not resuming work until Monday. A reduction
in the operatives' wages, amounting to ten per cent, is also spoken
of.

our principal railway companies has fallen off so materially of
resort
is
also
and the demand for rolling stock has, in consequence,
become so greatly diminished, that the railway companies find
they possess a super -abundant supply, and have now but little to
do, except to attend to the work of repairs.
Excessive caution, in
fact, continues to pervade every department of business, and
no improvement is possible until the return of autumn at the
least, and e^ren then there is not much probability of any great
activity.
Many classes of goods, in the absence of any great
power on the part of the general public to purchase liberally,
late,
are
now
quite cheap.
Heavy
losses
sustained in foreign loans
and public companies have obviously diminished the spending
power of the community, and it is obvious that some time must
elapse before the position of those who have lost can be restored.
There appears to be no speculation of iiuy importance in any
department of trade, and it is more than probable that business
will remain in a quiet state as long as eo many political uncertainties exist.

It appears that Mr Twycross purchased certain sh«res in the Lisbon Steam Tramways Company, limited, and he contended that had
he known of two contracts which were in existence, but which
were not published with the prospectus, he would not hava purchased those shares. The contention was that the prospectus was
a fraudulent one, and that the money should be returned. The
cage has occupied about a week in all, and has excited considerable interest.
Mr. Grant defended his own case, and made an
able speech extending over two days, but the jury returned a
verdict in favor of the plaintiff for £700; but the presiding judge
respited judgment, and said that the plaintiff must move to enter
judgment on the findings on Monday week. The other defendants were Messrs. Clark and Punchard, the contractors. The
plaintiff in this case having been successful, it is stated that 80
more claims will be made.
The demand for money during the week has been very moderate, and with a good supply seeking employment, the rates of
discount have remained easy. In the open market the best bills
»re taken at 1^ per cent., and the Bunk rate remains at 3 per
cent.

accommodation have diminished tbe gross profits of several
banks; but, on the other hand, there have been fewer losses,
owing to the caution with which the banks have conducted their
business of late. The net result is, therefore, more tatisfactory
on the whole.
A meeting of the Standing Committee of the North of England
Iron Trade Arbitration Board was held on Wednesday, when the
report of the accountant (Mr. Waterhouse) as to the results o*
his examination of tbe employers' books for the last quarter was
presented. The average net selling price per ton of manufacfor
tured iron, including
rails, plates,
bars,
and angles, was £7
6s«
during the quarter by between
0,000 and 10,000 tons, the total made being under 39,006 tons.
Of the whole finished iron production, rails formed only about 27
per cent, instead of 54 iu a normal state of trade. Taking all
classes of manufactured iron, there was a total reduction of 7s
4d. per ton but, owing to a less production of rails, which are of
a cheaper claFS of iron, and an increase of plates, the latter being
higher priced, there is only a reduction of Cd. per ton on the total
average. These returns are made to regulate wages by the selling prices of iron but as no notice has been given by either
maifters or men, no change can take place before October,

Mr. Holraan'a amendment is as follows:
That so much of the act entitled "An act to provide for the resumption of
specie payments,^' approved Junnary 14, 1875, as authorizes or requires Ihe
Secretary of tlie Treasury to redeem in coin on and afier Ihe 1st day of Jacnary, 1819. and to isnue and sell United States bonds fur that purpose, is
hereby repealed.
The report of the Committee of Parliament on the silver
question is one of the most important docuiueats on this no* engrossing topic, and the following is an extract from it:
—
To sum up the mere striking facts which have been brought
before your Committee, the situation at the present moment
appears to be this
1.
The total annual production of silver has risen to upward
of £14,000,000, from an average of about £8,000,000 to £9,000,000
:
in 18C0.
3. Of this amount of £14,000,000, the mines of the United States
are estimated to have produced about £7,100,000, with the prospect of an increase for some years to come. On the other hand,
it the price of silver should remain as low as at present, there
may be some diminution in the production elsewhere.
3. Germany has still to dispose of an amount which is certainly
not less than £8,000,000, with the possibility that it may exceed
£30,000,000; but with the possibility on the other hand that a
considerably larger sum tiian the estimated amount may be
ultimately required lor subaiJiary coinage.
4. Tlie Scandinavian Kiogdoms have discontinued the use of
silver; but the amounts ol demonetized silver coin which they
have thrown or can throw on the markit are not important.
5. Austria has apparently been exchanging silver for gold, the

to £6,000,000 since 1871.
G. lialy has been gradually denuded of her silver currency.
Since 1865 large amounts have been exported her forced paper
currency jias apparently expelled the whole of the metallic currencv, of which the silver coinB amounted, at the beginning of
180(5", to about £17,00»,000.
7. France, on the other hand, has for some years past been
replenishinjf her stock of silver, jf which, during the last four
years, her imports have exceeded her exports by £33,500,000.
8. England, Russia and Spain have each been buyers to the
extent of some millious.
9. Japan and China and other countries in the East have
absorbed a certain amount.
10. India still takes silver, but in greatly decreased amounts.
11. The Home Government has bills to sell to the extent of
£15,000,000 per annum, wliich debtors to India can buy in the
place of remitting bullion. This total has been gradually
reached, and represents an excess of more than £10,000,000, compared with £0 years ago.
13. The gross remittances of silver to India during the last four
years have bien £15,000,000, compared witU £38,900,000 in the
four previous years.
Legislatively, the position is as follows

silver.
No indications are given of any intention on the part of RusBia and Austria to paos any laws with regard to their currency.
The actual facts which have been enumerated speak for themselves, and it will be seen at once which of tbem are in favor of
a rise in the price of silver, and which of them tend in a contrary direction. It is important, too, that the temporary character of some of these facts, and the normal character of others,
should be fully taken into account. Tlie surplus stock of Germany will in all probability weigh heavily on the market for
to come
stil 1. it is a temj orary circumstance.
On the
other hand, the United States will afford temporary relief to the
market by retaining for her own coinage considerable amounts
of the silver there produced. It is indeed possible, according to
the evidence adduced, that the United States will retain as much
silver for her new coinage operations as Germany may have to
isell as the result of hers.
The case of France deserves especial attention. The replenishment of her stock of silver can scarcaly be regarded At other than
a temporary circumstance. During tlie last four years, out of a

It
is
impossible
to
assume
that
it can be conbeen
tinued oQ the same scale. The natural iuferonce to be drawn
would be in tlie opposite direction.
With regard to India and the Enst, hitherto the largest consumers of silver, so much must depend upon the prosperity of
the populations, on the abundance of the crops in fact on their
powers of production that it is impossible to make any forecast
and, as regards actual facts, no more can be stated than that, on
the one hand, they have always possessed a very large power ot
absorbing bullion, while, on the other, that power has been
diminished by the growth of the sums annually payable by
India to the Home Government.
The only facts in any calculation as to the future which are
certain, and appear to be permanent, ara the increased total production of silver and the effect caused by the necessity of the Indian Government to draw annually for a heavy amount. Both
are adverse to the future value of silver, so far as they go ; but
they may be partially counterbalanced by changes In the trade
with the East.
As regards Europe, much must depend upon the action taken
by the governments of the various countries where the question
of the currency to be adopted is still unsettled. Your committee
have not considered it to be within the scope of tue questions
referred to them to make inquiry as to the intentions of these
governments, though many references to their views will be
jound in the var!ou8 official documents procnrred fDr the committee by the Foreign Office. Your committee od this point
would simply remark that it is obvious that, if effect should be
given to the policy ot substituting gold for silver, wherever it is
ieasible, and giving gold, for the sike of its advantages in international commerce, the preference, even among populations whose
habits and customs are in favor of silver, and thus displacing
silver from the position (which it tias always occupied) of doing
"the work of the currency over at least as large an area as gold,
no possible limits could be assigned to the further fall in its
value which would inevitably take place but your committee
are bound to refrain from giving any opinion on the expediency
of such a pol cy or the necessity for its adoption.

Erie Railway. — The members
of the Bond and StockholdAssociation assembled in London on the 13th instant, for the
purpose of meeting Mr. Jewett. Sir E. Watkin, In a few introductory remarks, said that he was sure Mr. Jewett was not responsible for the war which had exipted between some of the great
lines in America, but had done all he could to bring it to an end
as soon as possible. Mr. Jewett stated that the wide gauge was
a great disadvantage to the company and that another cause of
expense and misfortune had been that the 400 engines now on
the road it; a serviceable condition were of no less than 85 different patterns.
He also stated tliat the floating debt, including
everything, was about |4,400,0O0, and that there were upon the
road profitless contracts amounting to $17,000,000; also that he
had paid in money out ot the earnings, since June, 1875, $1,560,000 to relieve the company from those claims.

outstanding Sinking Fund Mortgage bonds, in accordance with
the provisions of the indenture l.'etween the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Union Trust Company of New York, took
place at the office of the railroad company. No. 44 Equitable
Building, at noon yesterday. As provided, tho drawing was conducted in the presence of the trustees, representtd by Mr. E. B.
Woiley, of the Union Trust Company, Mr. Elisha Atkins, Vice-
Western Union Telforaph.— Mr. Orton, President, has written at much length to the Tribr.ne in regard to its coraments on the
recent financial statement of this company. The only new point
brought out, however, is his explanation of the $125,000 received
from tli-i I. 0. T. Company, as follows
" The Western Union Company voluntarily, with f u'l knowledge
of all the facts, surrenders, in common with other holders of preferred stock, its preference upon 5,000 shares of stock, and, according to the Tribune, gets in exchange $135,000. It is precisely
at this point that the misconception begins.
The re il consideration wliicU the Western Union Contpany received veas not the
$135,000, but the appreciation of 5,3'^5 shares of common stock
which the company ownfd. So that thereafter its proprietorship
of the I. 0. T. Company's stock, all of it standing alike, would
be substantially the same as before the right of preference upon
a part of the stock had been surrendered."

Financial Situation. There has
been little of importance to affect the quiet of Wall street, beyond the daily reports from W a?hington relating to tho new silver legislation. It is liardly necessary to remarlt that the proposition to make silver a legal tender to any amount, and consequently a proper medium for tho payment of bonds, interest,
customs, and all obligations whatsoever, is regarded with unqualified disapproval by tho laajorlty of business men in this vicinity.
Aside from the immediate prospects for the bill itself, the matter
lias exerted a slightly depresMng influence in opening up a new
view of the possibilities before Congress. It had liitherto been
Bupposed that the probable scope of injurious laws relating to
the currency was limited to the issue of more paper, or the fail
Hut now, the turn in a new
lire to provide for that outstanding.
direction and proposal to seize upon depreciated silver as a suitable medium for paying debts, both public and private, has presented anoiher view of the temper and possible action of Congress, that is, upon the whole, somewhat discouraging.
Our local money market remains in the same condition of extreme ease, at 1^ to 2^ per cent for call loans, and 3 to 4 per cent
for prime GO days' paj er.
On Thursdaj, the Bank of England weekly report showed a
gain of £744,000 in specie, and the discount rate was left
unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of France gained 11,627,000
francs in specie.
The last statement of the New York City Clearing-IIouse banks,
issued July 23, allowed an increase of $t)".27,425 in the excess
above their 25 per cent legal reserve, the whole of such excess
being $31, 703,130, against $21,075,725 the previous week.

there has been a notable
decline in the orders from private investors. The general exodus
from the city in the last part of July, and the uncertainty thrown
over the specie question Ijy tlie daily reports from Washington
of tho discissions in Congress, appear to be the principal cau.ses

State and Railroad Bonds.
The transactions In State
bonds have been limited to a very few sales, and prices are not
much changed. Tennessees and Lo«isiauas are l)olli neglected,
and there is little home demand f r either. The commissioners
for funding Alabama debt are now in New Yoik, and have olUces
at 25 William street; they have already issued about $1,200,000
The Brooklyn
of the new bonds in excliange for old issues.
three-year loan for |1,000,000 sold at 105.47 for tho 7 per cents,
and 102.51 for the 6s.
Kailroad boiuls have shown fair activity and penernlly stronger
prices.
Tliere is some speculation in the St. Paul & Northwest
co.tsolidated bonds, in connection with the movements of the
respective stocks, as based upon the financial statements recently
issued.
The Pacific Railroad bonds are, as a rule, stronger, and
the unfavorable tone of the bills before Congress has but little
effect, as it is believod they would be uucxmstilutional, if passed.
Ohio & Jlississippi second mortgage bonds have sold down aa low
as OOi, and there is much loss of confidence in the company's
sounilness.
Closing prices of leading State and Railroad Bonds for three
weeks past, aud the range since Jan. 1, have been as follows:

Lackawanna and
—
of the stock till to-morrow, and there was a similar difference
between the price,^n sales made lor cash aud in the regular way
deliverable to mo7row. Ohio & Mississippi and Michigan Central
have been amoni; the weakest of the leading speculative favorites, and in regard to both it is supposed that tho railroad freight
war is bearing severely on th^-ir net earnings, as their reports of
cross receipts api>ear lately to be less favorable. Tho further
decline in the stocks of coal-carrying roads, with large sales of
New Jersey Central and Delaware Lackawanna and Western, has
been one of the features of the week. The coal combination to
maintain prices is yet unbroken, but there are many who suppose
that it will ultimately have to be dissolved, aud. in the meantime,
the small business done is sufficient to reduce earnings. An important cause for wide Hurtuations in these stocks is found in the
fact that so little intormatiou is given to the public about their
airair.-i, and stockholders being unable to learn tlie real cmdition
of their property, become easily a'armed and throw their stock
overboard. Tlie market was generally weak, but with some
recovery before the close.

Exctaanse. Foreign exchange has been a shade easier this
week, and the asking rates of leading drawers were reduced 4
point on Monday.
The small demand for bills seems to be the
principal cause for easier rates, and in consequence of the decreased firmness, the amount of specie going out is comparativelv
iijtht.
In domestic exchange the following were rates to day on New
at the cities named
Savannah, i premium; Cincinnati
quiet and firm, 50 to 100 premium New Orleaus, commercial, I,
bank, |
St. Louis, 75 premium
Chicago, 60@75c. premium ;
Charleston, offerings light, i premium; buying i premium.
On actual business in sterling bills the rates thij- afternoon
were about 4.88 for prime bankers' 60 days', and 4.831 for demand.
The iraasaciioas lor tbe week at theUustom Uoase and SubPreagurT have been as followa:

" The bill authorizes the issue by the United States of coin notes in exchange
for bullion, bars of gold and silver, the gold to bo computed at its coining value,
and the silver at the rate of 412 8-10 grains staudard silver to the dollar.
Seventy-five per cent of the bullion thus received is to be held in the mints and
assay ofHces for the purpose of redeeming the coin certificates whenever they
may be presented. The coin notes thus authorized to be issued are made a legal
tender without limit for all du-s to the United States, and the silver coin for
all debts of every nature, public and private, not specified to be paid in gold
coin.
The most important amendment reported by the Committee is one directing the coinage of silver dollars in the mints of the United States, and Mr.
Bland, of Missouri, who has charge of the bill, has agreed to admit an amendment proposed by Mr. Holman, repealing that part of the Resumption Act
of 1875 which provides for the redemption of United States notes in coin oa
the Ist of January, 1879, and authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to sell
bonds for th accumulation of a redemption f nud.

" Thin, in brief, ia the proposition. It proposes to pay the truat
debt in full to pay 60 3-3 per cent, at par of tbe first mortgage
bonds without interest, and 30 per cent, of the second mortgage.
It proposes to pay .TO per cent, of the Vermont and Canada, without interest, and as tbe interest in arrears now amounts to
upwards of $960,000, it will be seen that unless tbey treat this
interest aa a port of the trust debt (and this is not in the programme), the Vermont & Canada will, get but a pittance of its
worth. It, should be borne in mind, too, that the offer is not of so
mucli money, or of securities wbicli have a market value it is o(
stock and bonds which unitedly represent a capital higher than
tbe roads would now sell for ($11,000,090), and there is a certainty
that it would be more than this, under the clause that the now
company shall pay all other debts than those above specified.
For instance, the foregoing provision for the floating debt is
$1,600,000; the actual floating debt, exclusive of all Interest
claims, is certainly in excess of $2,000,000."

The Cin,jinn,tti Sonthern.— Rapid progress is being made in
the building of the Cincinnati Southern R.jad, to extend as far
south as Chattanooga, Tenn. Much interest is felt in the road
by the city of Cincinnati, which up to date has contributed
$16,000,000 towards its construction. By January 1, the road
will be open for 160 miles from Cincinnati to a point south of
Danville, Ky. and it is expected by the trustees of the road that
the entire line, through Kentucky and on to Chattanooga, a distance of 338 miles, will be completed bv July 1, 1877.
Tlie Coal Combination.— The New York limes of July 25 says;
" The Board of Control of the Coal Combination held a meeting
Tuesday afternoon at the oi&ce of the Delaware and Hudson
Canal Company, in this city, to consider the question of the June
shipment of coal by the Lehigh Valley Railroad to tide-water,
which was 80,000 tons in excess of the schedule of tonnage agreed
upon by the several companies last winter. Amojg the members of the combination present were Mr. Sloan, President of the
Delaware Lackawanna & Western Railroad Thomas Dickson,
President of the Delaware & Hudson Canal Company
Mr.
flowan,of tha Reading Railroad Company; Messrs. John Taylor
Johnston, President, and Parish, of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey and Messrs. Pardee and Swoyer, of the Lehigh Valley
Company, reported that a large meeting of Lehigh Valley operators was held at Mauch Chunk, Penn., on Pridav last, at which
it was refolved that the Lehigh Valley suspend shipments ot
coal to tide-water for two weeks in August, in order to equalize
their tonnage to the proper amount, and reduce their June excess and, also, that the operators of the Lehigli Valley ccal
region would abide by the action of the Board of Control, and
limit their shipments for the remainder of the year to their
proper quota as established by the combination. After the adoption of a further resolution to hold monthly meetings of the Coal
Combination at their office in this city, for the consideration of
questions relating to the govercment of the trade, the Board
adjourned."

that the effect of the legal decision making Council Bluffs the

Farmers and planters, as well as manufacturers, complain of the
low prices at which they are obliged to sell their products, but the
adjustment of values to a lower scale is some compensation therefor; if one must sell low, he may also buy cheaply. The damage

THE CHRONICLK.

There Las been a very fair demand the past week from American epinners for cotton on tte spot, and yesterday quotations
were advanced l-16c. to llic. for middling uplands. Very little
lias been done for export, and speculation was less active. Desirable stock is pretty well concentrated at this port, and in strong
hands buyers in absolute need have, therefore, been compelled
Today, the advance of yesterday
to pay rather more money.
•was fully supported, with a fair business for home consumption.
For future delivery the market has been subj ect to more or less
speculative manipulation, not only on our own Cotton Exchange,
but through Liverpool, and frequent fluctuations have been the
result.
Yesterday, however, the impression gained ground that
not only do the caterpillars endanger the crop, but that in other
respects it is less promising than was generally believed a week
ago. The weather was reported lowering and quite cool throughout a considerable portion of the South. This, succeeding the
intense heat, was looked upon as unfavorable. Yesterday, however, speculation was quite slow, and only l-33c. advance
obtained. But to day there was a further and general advance
of l-16c., August being ^c. higher, with a moderate business.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 86,400
bules, including
free on board. For immediate delivery the
total sales foot up this week 7,576 bales, including 500 for export, 0,548 for consumption, 53S for speculation, and

There bas been some recovery of tone and prices in flour during the past week, Unas and stock, and lots that it was feared
would become so, had bsen pretty well closed out, and there was
a demand to supply immediate need?, which were increased by
the fact that much flour held by dealers and bakers had soured
ou their hands. In the course of Tuesday and Wednesday, there
was a liberal businees in shipping extras at $4 C0@4 75, but yesterday the urgency of demand abated, and part of the advance of
the previous two or three days was lost. Keccipts and production are small. Kye flour and corn meal have been more active,
at very full prices. Today, there was a hardening market for
the better brands of low grades of flour, with a good business.
The wheat market has also exhibited a marked recovery in
tone, though not very active, and prices very little higher. The
weatker has become much cooler, with a v?ry favorable effect
upon the condition of the stocks in store and afloat. Receipts at
the West and at this port have materially fallen off, and the
quantity afloat for this maiket is greatly reduced. There has
been gome decline in ocean freights, and foreign accounts have
been less depressed. Therefore, although the demand was not
active, better prices were obtained, the sales being mainly at 83@
85c. for Eoft No. 3 spring, 92@98c. lor soft and fair No. 2 do.'
$1 16@fl 17 for No. 1 Milwaukee, and f 1 19 for No. 1 Sheboygan.
Yesterday, the market exhibited some weakness, but closed about
steady. Winter wheats are even more irregular than spring
growths inferior sold at 70@75"., and good to prime red $1@
$1 15. Very little new wheat is ofTered as yet. To-day, there
was some further advance in spring wheats, with considerable

Milwaukee, Toledo, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louia, PeorU and
Duluth for the week ended July 22, and from Jan. 1 to July 83,
from the brisk demand and the increased confidence which the
cooler weather has imparted to receivers and holders. At the
close, yesterday, there was some re-action from the highest point.
Today, the market was steady, but not active.
Rye has been dull and unsettled. Canada peas remained very
quiet.
Barley nomiual, but barley n-alt meets with a more
general demand.
Oils have been in active request, and prices are decidedly
higher, the transactions embracing several parcels for export, at
57@33c. for No. 2 Chicago and Milwaukee afloat; and choice
white have brought extreme prices but the close last evening
was rather quiet. To-day, the market was quiet.)
