export, the difference, if large enough, would lead the districts now supplied by New York to seek their supplies

There has been a " settlement " on the Stock Exchange this
week, and, as might have been expected, much excitement and
depression prevailed. With the exception of American and
Canadian, securities have been offered freely, without finding
buyers, and consequently prices have declined considerably
Turkish and Egyptian stocks have experienced a heavy fall,
and the latter are proving a serious loss to those who bought at
high prices, believing that the investment was a sound one.
The following is a comparison of the prices of Egyptian
securities to-day with the highest quotations current last year:

During the week ended July 8 the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to 14,190 quarters, against 16,140 quarters last year
and 15,753 quarters in 1880; while it is computed that they
were in the whole kingdom 56,760 quartets, against 64,560
quarters and 63,012 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the
150 principal markets have been 1,760,937 quarters, against
1,638,075 quarters and 1,316,606 quarters, the estimate for the
whole kingdom being 7,043,750 quarters, against 6,196,300
quarters in the corresponding period of last season and 5,291,820
quarters in 1879-80. 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 placed on the British markets since harvest. The
visible supply of wheat in the United States is also given:

THE CHRONICLE.

it became necessary to show that the cost of transporting
freight between New York and Chicago was or ought to bo less than the
cost between Philadelphia and Clucaito, or Baltimore and Cni»ago. or at
least that it was not greater. But upon tiiis pi.int, unfortunately, the
inforniiition that was produced before na did not appear to be very precise or very accurate. The expressions of o'llnion wereiudced clear and
strong, but they wore generally supported ))y argument and inference
ratlicr than Dy evidence. • • »
" We are without reliable information by which to apply the cost principle in the regulatiim of charges of transportation V)etwecu the
Atlantic cities and the interior, and we cainot say that the application
would be to the advantage of New York. Prima facie the case seems to
be against New York, especially when the Pennsylvania Railroad,
whlcli constitutes one of Its most Important IItics, la taken Into the
account. • - " It only remains for us to state that no evidence has
been oflferod before us that the existing differentials are unjust, or that
they operate to the priyudlce of either of tlie Atlantic scnport cities.
Difi'ercutial rates have come into existence under the operation of competitive forces; they bear some relation to relative distance and relative
cost of service they reioguize, as we think, the relative advantages of
the several seaports, and they are subordinate to the great principle
which compels the carriers of property competing between the same
points and offering e(iual fiieillties to their customers to mai»e the same
rates. We therefore cannot advise their being disturbed.
" But we do not assume that the rates which are just to-day will be
Just indefinitely. They have become estal>lished by tbe force of circumstances, and they ought to give way If future circumstances shall be
such as to render it right and proper."

cate the flrat and second of these principles generally agreed that the
third should not be discarded, but that it had its legitimate place and
must have its legitimate influence also. Brief notice will be taken of
these three principles respectively.
'•
It was contended by the commercial representatives of Philadelphia
and Baltimore that freight charges on like classes of freights between
tho interior and the seaboard cities ougbt to be proportioned to distance.
We understood tlicm to mean by this that the shortest line from Chicago
to each of the Atliintic cities should be taken as tho standard for meas'%iring the freiglit charges between Chicago and that city, and that the
charges for all the cities should then be determined by the mileage. By
referring to the accompanying note it will be seen that if the mileage
tandard were adopted the freight charges between New York and
Chicago would bo about 10 per cent greater than those between Philadelphia and < hicago, and aliout 13 per cent more than those between
Baltimore and Chicago. Thoi-e between New York and Cincinnati
would be about 28 per < eut more than between Philadelphia and Cincinnati and about :)8 per cent more than between Baltimore and Cincinnati. Accordli.ir to the average rates on grata and provisions this year,
tho differentials have only been about62) per cent In favor of Phihidelpniaand loper cent in favor of Baltimore; and the distance principle would, therefore, on an average, increase them greatly. It was
urged that it was by this princlide that tho several roads, constituting
a competing line, are accustomed to upportiou their Joint charges, ami
tliat these ve y trunk lines adopt it in dividing the charges iipon'through
freights with the roads fri
wliich they receive the freight or to which
they deliver it. The New York representatives, on the oiher hand, contended that the distance piincipic could not with any Justice control,
for the reason that distance docs not measure either the cost or the
value of the service; so that if ailoiited as the standard of charges it
would be an ai biirary standard, and the element of equity in the rates
m
would be riistegardcd. • • •
"New York parties who rejected the distance
principle were inclined
to favor tbe grading of rates by tlie cost of service; and if this were
done, they claimed that the differentials would disappear altogether.
» * • To show that the cost principle would be to the advantage of
annuities $2,428,089. It has returned to its policy holders in the
-_ dividends $3,996,441, and for surrender and lapsed
way of
policies $5,267,284. The total payments to policy holders have
been $18,568,716. During the past week agents have brought
in over a quarter of a million dollars of new business with
them, which added to the two millions already issued, made a
very handsome half-year's work."

Central Railroad of New Jersey.—The New York Herald
has contributed to the current information about this company
by publishing the figures contained in a report filed by a Master in the New Jersey Court of Chancery. The report is presumably correct so far as its quoted otficial figures are concerned, and the Herald reporter submitted it in full to the receiver for corrections before its publication, but Mr. Little declined to make any corrections or say anything about it. It is
the purpose of the Chronicle to gather in railroad information
from all sources, so far as matters of fact are concerned, and
credit is fairly given to all other publications as these, columns
from week to week bear witness. The animus of a publication
anything new as
is nothing to the Chroniolb, provided it gives
a positive fact about any railroad, and the conclusions made for
sensational purposes are usually dropped, while the truth, if
there is any, is sifted out and brought down to an intelligible
shape for the average reader. " So let it be with Csesar, and

Canton Company (Baltimore).
(For the year ending May 31, 1882.)
The annual report says " The past twelve months has been
an eventful period in the Canton Company's history, the sale
of the Union Railroad by the Canton Company to the North em
Central Railway Company having occurred since our last report.
:
Your directors deem that a brief recital of connecting causes
and facts will be acceptable.
•'
The Union Railroad was built by the Canton Company in
18*70-73 for the express purpose of developing Canton property,
giving transportation facilities to its various business enterprises.
" The wisdom of the project has been fuU^ vindicated by
actual results. In the early history of this road, its maintenance
was an expense, but business gradually increased until finally
*•
* *
it became satisfactorily remunerative."
*' Your directors offered to sell them (the North. Central) the
load, and after some negotiations accepted five hundred and
ninety-four thousand dollars, subject to the existing mortjfas;e of fifteen hundred thousand dollars and the interest thereon.
*'
What is known as the Union Railroad sinking funds, set
down in this report at $689,885, created by the Canton Company to protect its endorsement of said Union Railroad Bonds,
•was not included in this sale, but will remain, with its accretions, intact until the maturity and payment of said Union
Railroad bonds by the Northern Central Railway Company as
agreed, when it will revert to the Canton Company. In a
•written and recorded instrument it was also agreed, and made
Bart of the consideration paid for the Union Railroad, that the
Korthern Central Railway Company and its assigns should
hereafter, as set forth in detail, protect and promote the general business interests of Canton, as well as aid in the continued
development of Canton property."

The Herald report has the following
"Some idea of the true condition of the property may, perhaps, be gained at last from a report which has just been filed
in the Court of Chancery at Trenton by Mr. Amzi Dodd, SpecLathial Master appointed to examine and report upon Judge
rop's accounts as receiver. This report covers the whole period
1882
of his receivership— from February 15, 1877, to March 3,
and embraces two complete inventories of the property, one
made on the appointment of the receiver in 1877 and one on
January 31, 1882, and also a supplemental inventory at the
date of the appointment of the present receiver, March 3,
1882. The excess of receipts over disbursements for the entire
time is stated at $350,452 74, which sum, the Master says, 'was
the cash balance in the hands of said receiver at the date of
his decease.' This amount, in the precise language of the Masand
ter, was 'the difference between the aggregate receipts
expenditures * * * Iiad and made by said receiver durmg
the period of his receivership.' Neither the items of income
and expenditure, nor the gross amount of each respectively M
stated, but reference is made to monthly statements, which
were examined and verified by the Master."

Cincinnati New Orleans & Texas Pacillc.— At a meeting of

accounts of the company for six months ending June 30, 1882.
The Cincinnati Co??ime7-ciaZ says: "Attached thereto was an
explanatory note showing that the early promise of the year
was pot sustained, and that the receipts which opened for the
month of January at an increase of iifty-two per cent suffered
severely afterwards, and in April the increase was only two per
cent, the cause being attributed to the exceptionally bad
weather, the short crops of last year and the heavy floods.
Under the unfavorable receipts it became a question whether

things considered, and bearing in mind the fact that the road
was not fully completed, it was decided to carry out a system
of liberal though careful expenditure to properly maintain the
road-bed, bridges and tunnels, in order to keep up a high-class
road, which should be fully able to deal with the heavy
business to be anticipated when the period of depression should
pass away." The receipts were as follows

Denver & New Orleans— Fort Worth & Denrer City.—BxGovernor John Evans, President of the Denver & New Orleans
Railroad Company, on hi.s way from New York to Denver, informed a reporter for the Chicago Times that he had just concluded an arrangement with Winslow, Lanier & Co., one of the
heaviest banking houses in New York, for placing $9,000,000 of
the company's bonds, which insures the completion of the line
to a junction with its Texas connections at the Canadian River.
Gov. Evans said that the press dispatch from Denver, announcing that in its suit against the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe to
enjoin the latter from discriminating in favor of the Denver &
Rio Grande, that Judge Hallethad rendered a decision, was misleading.
It was only a refusal, he said, to grant an injunction

that Under the constitution of Colorado the Atchison Topeka &
Sante Fe is required to exchange business with the Denver &
New Orleans- Raiiroad. The court argued this at length when
dismissing the Atchison & Santa Fe's demurrer.

Railway is now completed to Henrietta, Clay County, Tex.,
ninety-six miles from Fort Worth, and opened for traffic from
that point. Shipments of cattle began on the 18th inst., there
being about 30,000 head of cattle awaiting shipment at Henrietta.
It is intimated on excellent authority that the negotiations between the Denver & New Orleans Railroad and a
syndicate of New Ysrk Bankers have been successfully consummated, and that that roai will be completed forthwith to

The speculation in cotton for future delivery at this market
has been moderately active the past week. On Saturday the
danger that the troubles in Egypt were to be prolonged for an
indefinite period and the reports of excessive rains in the
Mississippi Valley gave an advance to prices, which was Icat
on Monday, under improved crop advices and dull accounts
from Liverpool. But on Tuesday there was a fresh advance,
which was continued on Wednesday morning, on the very
favorable accounts from Liverpool but the early advance on
Wednesday was lost in the afternoon, under reports from
Egypt that Arabi Pacha was willing to make terms for a surrender. Yesterday there was a slight upward movement at
the close, the comparatively free notices for delivery on
August contracts having been pretty generally stopped. To;

bales for the first thirty-nine weeks of the season. The Continental consumption for the whole of last season averaged 56,846
bales of 400 lbs. each. For this season the average will probably amount to from ."^g.OOO to 60,000 bales. Hitherto we hare
calculated upon 59,000 bales, but a number of our correspondents think 60,000 nearer the truth. We have accordingly
adopted this figure for the flrst thirty-nine weeks of the season,
whereby we reach a total of 2,340,000 bales.
On the basis Of the foregoing estimates, the movements for
the thirty-nine weeks of this season and last compare as follows, in bales of the uniform weight of 400 lbs.:

Ellison

Co.'s
Circular fob Jolt.— We have this week re-
ceived Mr. Ellison's circular dated July 10, and give
it
below:
ConKSE of the Manchester Mabkbt, June 9 to Jolt 10.
The business done dnting the past month has fallen much
below the volume attained in May but the contracts then
taken and the upward tendency of the raw material have kept
prices firm, and in some instances enabled producers to establish an advance.
Fine yarns have been exceptionally influenced
by the Kgyptian crisis, but at the close they are distinctly
;
lower than the figures toucht-d at the highest point. Compared with the races current a month ago, the medium counts
of yarn show an advance of >^d. for weft and J^d. to \iA. for
twist; but the current makes of shirtings are unchanged and
the position of manufacturers is very unsatisfactory, ahirtings
are about the same price as thsy were twelve mouthe ago in
;
The
excess in the mill stocks of Great Britain includes a considerable quantity of Egyptian and some East Indian cotton.
Of the Continental stocks there is a much larger proportion this
season than last in Russia, Austria. Italy and Spain, but a
smaller proportion in other districts. The following table shows
that the channels of distribution have this season experienced
considerable changes— a fact which has caused many people to
underestimate the stocks at the Continental mills, the spinners
having obtained supplies through new channels.

various grades, at 7^c. for 1>6 lbs., S^^c. for 1% lbs., 9^c for
2 lbs. and 10c. for standard qualities. Butts are not wanted,
except in small lots, the larger buyers being well stocked up.

FEIDAT, P. M., July 29, 1883.
Flour has been quiet and depressed in sympathy with the
weak wheat market, and also owing to the intense heat, which
causes a deterioration in the quality of much of the stock here,
especially spring
dull
wheat brands.
To-day the market was
still
and heavy.
Wheat has been active on speculation, and at times there has
been a good export trade; but the larger receipts at the West
and the unusually fine quality and heavy weight of the crop,
together with the splendid harvesting weather, have combined
to depress prices, and the decline for the week is from 5 to 8
cents per bushel. To-day the market was irregular, opening
at an advance of ?^@lc., but losing this later, and declining
@lc., with a fair business No. 2 red sold at $1 13^@$1 15^
for July, $1 \3}imi 15M for August, $1 14%@$1 16>^ for Sep-

Indian corn has been, a.s a rule, quiet, bat prices, thougli
early in the week depressed, have latterly been advancing in
response to a steady rise in Chicago, where speculative manipulations have caused the advance, aided by less favorable reports in regard to the crop, which is said to need more rain.
These statements are treated as canards by many, but h&T«
nevertheless influenced the course of prices. There has how-
ever been a noticeable disinclination on the part of both exporters and speculators here to engage in large transactions
lately. To-day the market advanced ^@lc., with a fair amount
of trade; No. 2 mixed sold at 84i^c. for August, %a%@^h%9.

Rye has been dull and declining. Oats have sold freely, but at
lower prices for the later deliveries, though July has advanced
2c. to 3c., owing tp a corner both here and in Chicago; the
trade has been mainly in options, as the supply on the spot has
been moderate. To-day the market was fairly active at a
slight decline in the later options, though prices on the spot
and for July were higher ; No. 2 mixed sold at 68@70e. for
July, 49^@50c. for August and 44^@44%c. for September. *

DoMBSTic Woolen Goods
The demand for woolen goods
has been spasmodic and irregular, but in some descriptions
there was a very fair movement. Men's-wear woolens were a
trifle more active, but selections were chiefly confined to relatively small pircels of cassimeres, suitings and overcoatings of
the better grades. Cloakings met with considerable attention,
and a pretty good business was done in sackings. Flannels
continued to move freely, scarlets and dre.ss ttiinnels having
been in noticeably good demand. Dress plaids and linseys
were also in fair request, and worsted and all-wool dress goods
were taken more freely by out-of-town buyers. Blankets, both
white and colored, met with considerable saloa at steady prices.
