No less than 117,419 of the total number of

Great Britain (England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales
combined) the arrivals during the same twelve months
were only 117,068, and from Germany they were 130,622; 80 that Russia sent us more than the United Kingdom and not far from as much as Germany.
But besides these 117,419 immigrants from Russia and
Poland we got in the same year 45,797 from Bohemia
and Hungary and 60,944 from Italy, making a total
from those three sources of 224,160. As 619,320 immigrants came in altogether during the twelvemonths,
those thrte sources furnished considerably more than
changes.

the other hand, the banks which do business only in the Prov-

inces, as well as those which have branches both in London
and the Provinces, with the exception of two or three, all
maintain the same rates of dividend as they paid in the first
half of last year. The London mouey market is more dependent upon the Stock Exchange demand, upon the operations

tFrom our own oorreaponaent, J

London, Saturday, July 16, 1892.
Some of the joint-stock banks are trying to keep up rates
by refusing to take bills from the bill brokers at leas than Jg
per cent. The joint-stock banks, of course, discount directly

Some of the railway dividends already declared are better
than had been expected, while others are very disappointing.
The London & Brighton Company, which is chiefiy a passenger line serving important seaside towns like Brighton, declares a dividend for the first half of the year at the rate of
3M per cent twelve months ago the dividend was only 3}4
per cent. The Metropolitan Company, which is a purely
London underground line, maintains the same rate of dividend, S}4 per cent, but it gives a bonus of 3^ per cent upon
the Surplus Land stock. The London & Tilbury Company,
which runs parallel with the Thames to the docks at Tilbury and some distance farther on, declares a dividend at
the rate of 2J^ per cent, against 2 per cent twelve
months ago and the Manchester Sheffield & Lincolnshire
Company declares a dividend at the rate of J^ per cent, the
same as a year ago. Both the gross and the nee receipts
of this company increased handsomely during the six months
but there was a corresponding increase in the fixed charges.
On the other hand, the South Eastern Company, which is
likewise a passenger line, though it has a good deal of goods
traffic coming from France, declares a dividend at the rate of
1^ per cent, [against 2]4 twelve months ago, and the Great
Eastern company, whose traffic is very mixed, declares a
per cent, against IJ^ per cent
dividend at the rate of only
twelve months ago. The latter dividend was so much worse
than had been expected that the general market gave way.
The rates for money have been as follows:

Thursday for the million and-a-half sterling of Treasury bills
offered, and consequently the Government had to pay very
nearly % per cent for its 3 months' bills and 2}4 per cent for

are not likely to succeed for any length of time. There is too
much unemployed money and too little demand for it, and in
the early future there is no prospect of muoh incrtase in the
demand. The Stock Exchange settlement this week hardly
affected rates at all, and the general elections have not with-

drawn

as

;

ex-

pected.

The price of silver has been oscillating during the week
about 89S^d. per ounce. The general belief here is that there
must be a further fall. Trade in India, the Straits Settlements and China, especially in China, is very bad. Tbe demand, therefore, for the East is exceptionally small. For the
Continent there is no demand, and the impression is growing
that the American purchases must cease before very long.
All this keeps alive apprehension respecting; the Eastern
banks. They have suffered heavy losses from the fluctuations in silver during the past two years, from the depression
in the Eastern trade and "from frauds; and if there is a

The general elections have deepened the stagnation upon
the Stock Exchange that has been growing ever since the beginning of the year. It is now certain that Mr. Gladstone
will have a fair working majority, and as the city is very
conservative, it is greatly disappointed. Besides there is doubt
whether at his great age Mr. Gladstone can bear the labor of

Metropolitan Traction Co.— The report from Philadelphia
that the Metropolitan Traction Company is to be reorganized
The capital stock of the new corporation is to
is coafirmed.
be $30,000,000. Each holder of 100 shares of the present stock
will receive 120 shares in the new company, thus taking
$24,000,000 of the new capital. It is also proposed to permit
present stockholders to subscribe to 10 per cent of their present holdings in new stock at par, which will put $3,000,000 of
money in the company's treasury. The remaiuing $4,000,000
stock is 10 be held for future use in developing the property.
Mr. Thomas F. Ryan, Treasurer of the Traction Company,
said in reply to a question as to whether there was a reorganization in part:
"Yes. It is the intention of the company to reorganize
under the laws of the State of New York. The legislative
pjlicy of this State has become more liberal, and there is no
necessity now for New York capital desiring to invest in any
enterprise to go outside of the State. » » » »
"The persons interested in the Traction Company have been
considering organizing a New York corporation of sufficient
capital to purchase the stock of the Metropolitan Traction
Company, wbich is organized under the laws of the State of
New Jersey. They will be obliged to pay quite an amount of
taxation annually to the New York treasury in excess of that
required under the laws of New Jersey. It will probably
amount the first year to $50,000— more than they pay in New
Jersey, but as the property is here and the business here they
prefer to do it notwithstanding.
"The stock of the Metropolitan Traction Company of New
Jersey is selling at about $140 per share, and is liable to an
assessment of $40 per share. The New York Company will
buy the stock at about 120, and issue the stock of the New
York corporation for it, which will be paid-up stock, andgi\«
the privilege on $2,000,000 stock at par."
He also said that there was no truth in the report that the
Traction Company is trying to purchase control of the Elevated roads of New York.

—Attention is called to the offer of Messrs. Taintor & Holt
column of a limited amount of the City Cable
Railway Company of the City of Cleveland, Ohio. These are
first mortgage 5 per cent bonds and run for 17 years.
The
company owns a complete system of some 19 miles with full
equipment. Owing to the steady growth of the city of Cleveland the increase in the company's earnings has been constant.
Messrs. Taintor & Holt recommend this loan and will
furnish further particulars upon application.

excessive heat. The probable adjournment of Congress at an
early day and the defeat lately considered almost certain of
those particular measiu-es which had threatened business,
such as the Silver Coinage bill and the Anti-Option biU, have
served to give more confidence in the market.
Tlie high temi)eratiu-e throughout the country has generally
been good for com, and on Thiu«day when copious rains were
reported tliroughout Kan-sas, Nebraska, Iowa, &c.. tlie price
of com weakened in Chicago, and their operators became
bullish on Atchi.son and other granger stocks owing to tlie
better freight prospects.
For a time the so-called industrial stocks held first place
as active specialties in the market, and there is evidently a
re%'ival of confidence in the possible value of these stocks,
although the information the public receives in regard to them
is only a degree better than when they were trusts, when dealings in them were understood to be almost in the nature of
blind pools.
The outward movement of gold to-morrow of about f4,000,000 is somewhat disappointing, but last year the gold exports
did not cease till the latter part of July, and the present large
shipments did not depress our market to-day.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have ranged from 1 to 2 per cent,
the average being 1}^ per cent. To-day rates on call were
Commercial paper is quoted at i]4,@^% P- e.
1 to 2 per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday sliowed
an increase in bullion of £4,000, and the percentage of reserve to liabilities was 44'56, against 44'72 last week; the discount rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of
France shows an increase of 8,471,000 francs in gold and
2,038,000 in silver.
The New York Clearing-House banks in their statement of
July 23 showed an increase in the reserve held of $2,903,900
and a surplus over the required reserve of $23,063,800, against
120,207,150 the previous week.

Railroad and Miscellaneons Stoclis. The stock market
has shown some animation for the dull season, and in certain
lines there has been quite a notable activity. The industrials
as a class have come tolhe front and have taken a large share
of the whole stock transactions. There may be no better

—

reason for this at tbe moment than the general facta
near adjournment
that Congress is
and the fear of
unfavorable legislation will be removed for the time
and, secondly, the more substantial basis that
being,
the earnings of several of these corporations are reported to
have been very good for the first half of the current year.
It is also evident that the proceedings at law against trusts
and combinations, alleged to create monopolies in their several
branches of trade, have not thus far amounted to much,
while it is equally true that the legislation against railroads
has amounted to a great deal, and has been prejudicial in
some cases to their making fair earnings.
American Cotton Oil was prominent for large dealings and
the common advanced to 43%, closing at 43J^; there was good
buying, and some of this was attributed to insiders who have
been interested in the company since its reorganization. The
dealings in Amer. Sugar were very large and fluctuations
quite irregular, the common selling on Thursday from 105J^
National Lead
to 103J^ and then up to 107 J ^ near the close.
stock was also active at higher prices, selling up to 38)^ on reports of good earnings. Those who have access to the books
of the "industrial" companies are presumably among the
largest operators, as only tlie H. B. Claflin Co. has published
any semi-annual statement, and the public is therefore not
informed what these companies are earning the present year.
Among the railroad stocks Atcliiaon has been notably strong
on the good crop reports from Kansas, the other grangers
of the Far West being also strengthened by the crop situation.
Northern Pacific stocks are stronger since the extension of
the company's floating debt for a year. The Gould stocks
have been more active, Missouri Pacific closing at 60 Jg, Wabash pref. at 281^, and Western Union Telegraph, after pretty
large buying, at 97 Jg. The coal stocks as a class have been
rather quiet, and no further advance in anthracite for August
wasmaJe; but Lackawannii stock jiim()ed uo to 15978 at the
close on Thursday and to-d:iy sold at 160. Minneapolis & St.
Louis rose quickly to 17'^ and tlie preferred to 3y>4 on the
good report of earnings for the past year and the hope that
the litigation will soon reach sjme conclusion.

As you are aware the current
months is the interval of the lightest earnings
of the company, they being estimated at not over $4,300,000,
against $5,45.5,883 gross earnings enjoyed
by
the company during the six months ending February
1st, 1892.
At the same time this period is best adapted for
work upon the line in making necessary renewals and replacements. The best interests of the cocnpany require such
expenditure in these directions as will improve permanently
the condition and efficiency of the railway with reference to
the period when the interest upon the second mortgage will
become obligatory, and so as to establish its ability to operate
its road at a percentage of expenditure
which will leave
sufficient to insure payment of all its obligations, even though
six

temporary interruptions should occur in the existing prosperity of the region where the line is situated. Such a policy
it is believed will commend itself to ail proprietors of the
securities of the company who are interested in its permanent

welfare."

ground for confidence, supplemented however by increased
business for consumption both at home and abroad. No developments of an important character occurred during Saturday and Monday, but on Tuesday values commenced to harden
upon favorable construction given the news from Washington,
and also to some extent upon advices reporting lessened danger
of strikes at Lancashire mills. On Wednesday the same stimulating features were repeated, and as the local market absorbed an issue of some 18,000 bales August notices without
difficulty, the tone became buoyant, and 16 a 18 point-) advance followed, closing at the highest. Yesterday was irregular, opening a shade off; then sharply advancing until August
reached 7'48, from which there was a recession of 10 poiots.
To-day the general tendency was in buyers' favor, under some
disappointment in tenor of Liverpool advice? and more cheerful crop accounts received on the Exchange. Cotton on the
spot has advanced J^c. per lb. and sold freely to both spinners
and exporters.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 741,700
bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
32,161 bales, including 4,370 for export, 10. -191 for consumption

—Messrs. HiU, Fontaine

on July 28 their report on cotton
tor July, summarizing it as follows

Co., Mempliis, published

in the

Memphis

District

:

The weather during the month has been unfavorable for cotton,
and lor the season up to this period 326 out of the total of 340 reit much less favorable than last year.
Excessive rains
during the entire month of Juno and the first half of JtUy.

plies report
fell

The

all

lesult

is

shown

in

the backwarduess of

the crops.

Only

twelve report the season earlier than last year. \vhile3'2t report it later
and four the same, and au average otthe replies makes the season fully
fifteen days later. The continuous rains have also materially reduced
the acreage, as was given lu our May report. In all the four States
much of the bottom lands that were planted in cotton have been overflowed, which necessitated their abandonment. This is partly true of
the condition of the affairs as reported from Arkansas and Mississippi,
wliieii States seem to have suffered most. The present condition of
the cotton crop is anythiug but pro aising. Plauters have been unable
to work and the result Is that a very large percentage of fields are foul
with grass and 312 of the total report crops in not near so
good condition as last year. Owing to the backwardness of the
season and the very unfavorable weather, the pl.ant is not forming,
blooming and boiling well. Talcing the response-s as a whole, prospects
for cotton within the district were never less promising at tlils period
of the year, and the yield, even under the most favorable conditions,
from this time forth must ueoes-'arily be largely decreased from what
was reasonably anticipated in the early part of the season. Corn has
suffered, but not to the same ext*nt as coitou, but the increased acreage that was devoted to this cereal at the expense of cotton will comp,^usate in a measure for the damage sustained on account of the unfavorable weather.

East India Crop. -The following is from
Comber & Co.'s cotton report, dated June 23:

Messrs. Lyon,

From the crop accounts to hand to-day we see that sowing has commenced in the majority of the cotton districts, but generally speaking
more rain is recjuired before sowing oparatlons can all he completed.
Though a fortnight ago the southwest monsoon was blowing sti- ngy
but 300 miles out at sea, the current has been very weak all along the
ooast, and what rain we had has been unaccompanied with the usual
strong breeze which carries the moisture into the interior. Locally,
rain kas fallen nearly every day, aggregating 5'3 to 6^ inches, a little
short ot the average, but up country it has been very partial, In this
presidency inKatfhiawar about IHi to 1% Incheshave been regiatereds
In Guzerat fully 5 inches; in Khandeish about
in the Deocan about
Sholapore, 5>a inches;, and in the 8. Mahratta country, about 2 inobe*
generally, up to or in excess of the average fall to date. In tlie Ber»r«
but little rain has fallen in the fortnight, and more Is urgently wanted
for the germination of the seed which has been sown. In the central
provinces it is the same. In the Punjab scarcely any has been registered, but lu the N. W. provinces and parts of Central India there has
been a fair supply. In Rajputana very Uttle so far. On the other
hand, during the past few days, a good deal has fallen In parts of
Madras, especially in the central and Western districts and In the
extreme south; aUo a little in the Nizam's dominions.

m;

Egyptian Cotton Crop.— The following remme of reports
on the cotton crop in Egypt was issued by the Alexandria
General Produce Association, under date of June 80:

We have at last had during the whole of the month very hot weather,
and the cotton plants have profited well by it, especially in the
southern provinces, where ihoy liave regained the imckwardiiess noted
in previous resumet, and now jiresont an appearance iiluu)st as vigorous as that t)f last year at the same period. I'he effect of favorable ternperatiii e has beeu rather less apparent in tlm northern portion of Lower
Egypt. Nevertheless the fields are in good condition, though not so

The value of the New York exportJi since January 1 have
been |6.086,604 in 1892 against $7.749. 165 in 1891.
Business in staple domestics h.is been on a decidedly reduced scale this week from tlie cause referred to above, and
sales of both brown sheetings and bleachid shirtings have
been quite moderate. The export demand for sheetings and
drills is still slow for China and the Bast, but for South
American countries engagements have been up to the late
average. Prices are steady to firm for both brown and
bleached goods. Wide sheetings have been la steady movement in completion of previous purchases, as have cotton
flannels, while the movement in colored cottons of all descriptions has partaken largely of a similar character.
Kid fla«
ished cambrics have now reached 4^c. for 64 squares and at
this price the demand has slackened considerably.
New
prints have been in moderate demand at first ban Is, and not
selling so freely with jobbers as expected; medium to low
grades are in best request, and there is a noticeable demand for
old work in dark colors at low prices. Oinghams are quiet
throughout. Print cloths are without further change, with
few sellers, at 33>^c. for 64x6^ this aide of January, although
for delivery up to July next year 3 7-16c. has been accepted.
The Fall River weavers have decided to put in a claim for aa
advance in wages and there is much curiosity to see how it
will be met by manufacturers.

Domestic Woolkn8. Although the amount of business
transacted in this department compares favorably with the
results in cotton goods, it has not come up to the sales of last
week by a considerable quantity. The falling off has been
most noticeable in light-weight woolens and worsteds for
men's wear, the duplicating demand for heavy weights continuing on a free scale. Available stocks of tbe latter are now
so thoroughly cleaned up that agents are in a very independent
position, and in many instances will accept orders only at
an advance in price. This applies to both pure wool and cotton-warp goods as well as to satinets and union cassimeres.
Overcoatings are in a good position also, and the leading
makes of cloakings are well sold ahead. Flannels and blankets have ruled quiet, and but little new business has been
transacted in woolen and worsted dress goods.

Foreign Dry Goods.— The budding

activity of last

week

has been checked by the hot weather, and this week's business has been of moderate extent only. Importers and agents
have, however, made good deliveries out of current arrivals,
and a considerable quantity of dregs goods, silks, ribbons,
&c. have gone forward on account of importation order*.

and warehouses on account of back orders, and
although some progress must have been made in catching up
with such orders the market still continues in a well-sold-up
condition for the great majority of makes of domestics and
fancy cottons. Southern makes of brown sheetings are the
most abundant thing in the market just now, but even these
are steady in price, other descriptions ruling firm.
The
jobbing trade has been decidedly elack on the spot all the
week, and as the hot weather influence has been at work in
other markets besides New York, orders by mail have not
come up to expectations. A good business is expected with
more temperate weather, and the general outlook for the fall
trade is believed to be improving wherever any change is

ESSEX COUNTY rNEW JERSEYJ VALUATION AND
TAX RATE—NEWARK, ORANGE, ETC.
The Assessors of the County of Essex, Now Jersey, have
been in session this week equalizing valuations and consequently fixing the tax rates. It seems that there has been a
contest between the townships of Essex during past years in
this matter of equalization.
We presume, however, that it
has been a difference not very unlike the differences which
exist in all counties. It is generally the aim of each township to make its neighbor carry as much of the burden as
possible, and usually it is easy to put through a combination
which makes the richest the scapegoat. This time it appears
that Newark, with the help of Orange, has been able to reverse
the usual order of things, and the other townships were saddled with the extra load.
Newark's totals of valuation as now settled by this equalisation will for 1892 be $97,665,790 on real estate, and |25,984,764 on personal property less $1,741,386 sworn off, making the

On this total it is reported that the tax
rate for the year will be $18-70 per $1,000, against $18-30 per

the following from Mr. John D. Stevenson, Comptroller of the
City of St. Louis, bringing down all the items of information
respecting that city's debt, valuation, etc., to April 11 1893.
The debt outstanding April 11 1892 was $21,483,021. Adding $42,6)9 (which was advanced out of the treasury for the

redemption of maturities of 1890-1891, which must be covered
by the issue of renewal bonds or by the revenue of the sinking
fund), makes the actual debt on April 11 1892 $31,534,680.
The $600,000 6s due June 1 1893 were redeemed through
means temporarily advanced from the treasury; the amount
advanced will be covered by the issue of renewal bonds to
take the place of the bonds which were redeemed. We, however, continue this loan in the following statement (although
just stated the bonds have been redeemed), because the re-
