The

returns of the VanderbiJt roads for the

first

six

months (June being estimated) were published two weeks
ago, and they showed large diminutions in receipts.
As
to these and all other roads that had to contend with
the storms, snow and ica of the past winter, it is to be
said that the causes that operated to diminish profits were
exceptional and temporary, and not general and permanent.
While it may or may not be possible to retrieve
the present loss in subsequent months, there can be no
doubt that, being the work of exceptional circumstances,
another such loss

to

is

not likely to be

experienced for

If the amendments are not radical, affecting the

consider them in a friendly spirit; but it seems to be
assured that if Mr. Gladstone is well supported in the
Lower House, he will not allow the Lords a second time
to defeat his efforts to improve the laud tenure system of
Ireland.
It is impossible, however, to attach too much
importance to the possible behavior of the Irish people at

very nearly exhausted, and the determination is general

assumed by holders may alone be justified by the fact
that in this country, as well as on the Continent, stocks are
running very low. As far as this country is concerned, from
six weeks to two months must elapse before supplies of new
produce in any quantity can arrive at market, and the farmers'
deliveries during that period must necessarily be upon a very
limited scale. Last year's crop, as is now well known, was far
from abundant, the deliveries since harvest having been only
900,000 quarters more than in the corresponding period of the
previous season, which was one of the most unfortunate seasons

which 18,000,000 are males and 17,000,000 females.
During the week ended June 18, the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and "Wales
amounted to 21,929 quarters, against 24,278 quarters last year
and 49,42G quarters in 1879 and it is computed that in thp
whole kingdom they were 87,720 quarters, against 97,120
quarters in 1880 and 197,700 quarters in 1879. Since harvest
the sales in the 150 principal markets have amounted to
l,4S9,44t; quarters, again.st 1,252,500 quarters in 1879-80 and
the estimate for the whole kingdom

Period*.

2.

—

the news was telegraphed from Washington that the President
had been shot, it was at first deemed unworthy of credence, and
it took some time, with the repeated dispatches,
before the
financial markets could fully grasp the situation. Then there
was a rush to sell stocks which resulted in a decline of more or
less importance throughout the list.
Fortunately, the next
business day was a holiday, and by Tuesday the condition of the
President had much improved, so that any tendency towards a
panic was easily checked and the re-actionary feeling led to
stronger prices on the following days. It may be said that
throughout the week the pulse of President Garfield has been the
pulse of Wall Street, and as his condition improved the aspect of
financial aifairs improved with it. The tribute of confidence to
Mr. Garfield's administration is sufiiciently obvious ; and it was a
high compliment paid in the mo.st quiet but practical manner,
namely, through the rise in values of property, as the prospect
daily brightened of his permanent recovery.
The disturbance in the markets and the shifting (jf loans on
stocks caused an advance in the rates for money, and call loans
to stock-brokers were quoted at 4@6 per cent for a day or two,
but soon declined to 3/6@4/6 per cent, which were about the
rates today. On Government bonds the rates have usually
been 2^@3 per cent ; prime commeicial paper of 60 days to
four months 4@4yz per cent.
The Bank of England statement on Thursday showed a
decrease in bullion of £311,000, and the percentage of reserve to
liabilities was 44M per cent against 44)^ last week
the discount rate remains at 2}^ per cent. The Bank of France
gained 4,595,000 francs gold and 1,356,000 francs silver.
The last statement of the New York City Clearing-House
banks, issued July 2, showed a decrease in the surplus above
legal reserve of $2,362,900, the total surplus being $6,911,300,
against $9,274,200 the previous week.

State and Railroad Bonds. The Southern State bonds are
strong. Alabama bonds sold at 78%, ex-July coupon, for class
A., and 95 was bid for class B.
South Carolina Brown consols
quoted at 1 05^@107. Louisiana consols sold at 64, and the bonds
are coming from London and are bought for New Orleans account.
Tennessees are depressed, and old bonds sold at 71.
Kailroad bonds have been firmly held on a quiet business, and
the numerous bonds which are now selling ex-July interest have
not yet recovered in price a part of the coupon just paid, as they
may reasonably be expected to do this month if the demand for
investments is as large as it naturally should be.

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks. The course of the

an element de novo ; something never thought of or calculated
upon in the stock market, and the first shock to public sentiment
naturally resulted in a decline in prices of railroad stocks, which
was less, perhaps, than one might have anticipated from such a
stunning event. T'he attempted murder of the President, instead
of throwing all things into confusion, rather served to show how

semi-annual reports of the roads west of Buffalo, the fact is daily
in significance that no less than four lines are now
actually in progress, each backed by large capital, which will
compete witli Mr. Vanderbilt's roads for the East and West traffic.
One line is parallel to the Lake Shore, from Chicago to Buffalo;
the Erie connecting line runs from Marion, O., to Chicago; the
West Shore line from Buffalo to Albany, or vicinity,
and thence to New York; the Lackawanna connection
from Buffalo to Binghamton. While these roads were projected
mer(ilv on paper, they were things of the future; but smce they
are all under vigorous construction, and the money raised
to build a good part of them, it is time that they should at least
appear to the stock market as specks on the horizon. The
elevated railroads close stronger to-day in consequence of the
election of Messrs. Sage, Gould and associates as directors of the
Metropolitan Company, and the adjournment of the suits to July
Railroad earnmgs are fully reported on another page, and it

is plain that the exhibit of gross earnings is very strong; the increase over June, 1880, is large. At the same time, expenses
have probably increa.sed, and we would suggest to stockholders
that tney respectfully but persistently urge upon their directors
the importance of publishing the net as well as gross earnings.
Pennsylvania Railroad publishes them; Erie publishes them;
Chicago Burlington & Quiney publishes them; St. Louis Iron
Mountain & Southern publishes them; several other companies
also publish their net earnings, and if these leading corporations are liberal enough to furnish this information to their
stockholders, why can not all do it ? London and New Yorjt
both demand it more loudly as time goes on.

now agreed upon is perfected, the
Cincinnati Hamilton & Dayton, the Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati & Indianapolis (known as the Bee Line), the New York
Pennsylvania & Ohio, the Columbus & Toledo, the Columbus &
Hocking Valley, and the Ohio & West Virginia Railroads,
which combination will place in their hands all entrance to Cincinnati from the north and east except by way of the
Pan Handle and the Baltimore & Ohio, which comes in
by the Marietta line. It also gives them a firm grasp on
all communication between
Detroit and Toledo, and the
south and southeast, except by the Ohio Central road. The
coal interest, purchased by the syndicate, comprises a majority
of the coal mines in the Hocking Valley, and insures complete
control of all, as no coal from that region can find any market
except by railways named, always excepting such as can be
shipped by boats on the Ohio river. Now the Ohio Central
Railroad & Coal Company owns the coal fields on the other side
of the ridge in which the Hocking mines are found, and, owning
the coal and the road as well, ha.s been able to nnder-sell the
Hocking Valley men, and In the matter of freight to cut under
the roads just sold. The new arrangement gives an entirely
different aspect to affairs, for the syndicate owning coal and
roads, and having unlimited capital, can force the Ohio
Central people to come to their terms and make and sustain
such rates as they may impose, or else can under-sell and
crush tkem out. So much for the immediate effect on the
coal market.
The extensions to be built will not only give
greatly increased power to the consolidated companies, but will
prove a positive prohibition of the contemplated southeastern
extension of the Ohio Central, which has already been decided
upon, but which now will probably never be built. This extension was to run to Pomeroy, on the Ohio River, and thence
across the mountains to meet and consolidate with the Richmond & Allegheny Railroad now building. It would have been
an expensive line to construct, but would have opened the
mines of the company to the Richmond and Che.sapeake Bay
markets; but the new combination has only to build sixty miles,
as already mentioned in the Free Press, from Gallipolis, to
Charleston, W. Va., to complete a shorter line to Richmond
than the one proposed by the Ohio Central ; giving, in fact,
the shortest practicable route not only from the coal fields, but
from Detroit and Toledo, to Richmond, and all the territory
tributary to that great city. The distances will be as follows :

gross earnings over the previous fiscal year of 24 percent. The

net earnings for the same period were also largely increased.
Propositions to lease the road were submitted by the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad Company and the Midland of North
Carolina Eailroad. Each offered the same rental and substantially the same terms, but the stockholders, by a vote of 15,585
to 910 shares, directed that a lease be made to the Midland.
The committee appointed to receive and report the bids recommended the acceptance of the Midland's offer, as that company
proposes to use the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad as its
eastern division. The A. & N. C. Road now runs from Beaufort
Harbor to Goldsboro, and is ninety-eight miles long. The
engineers of the Midland Company are now surveying an airline from Goldsboro to Salisbury, and the entire road will shortly

be put under contract.

Bingham Canyon & Camp Floyd.—Messrs. Ludlow & Co.,
of C. W. Schofield and Greorge T. Davis, trustees, sold
all the property of the Bingham Canyon & Camp Floyd Railroad Company —a line twenty miles long, extending from Salt
Lake County, westerly, into Bingham County— for the sum of
by order

$300,000.

The purchaser

is

C. F. Woerishoelfer.

Buffalo Pittsbni^ & Western.—The Buffalo Pittsburg &
Western Railroad has notified holders of the Oil Creek Eailroad
bonds due April 1, 1882, the Union & Titusville Railroad bonds
due July 2, 1890, and the Pittsburg Titusville & Buffalo Railroad consolidated bonds due February 1, 1896, that it is prepared to exchange them for the Buffalo Pittsburg & Western
Railroad consolidated 6s, due April 1, 1921. The exchange will
be made dollar tor dollar, with an equation of interest ; and
the privilege of conversion expires August 31.

Chicago St. Louis & New Orleans.—A marked instance of
the preference of investors for long-date bonds, well secured,
is shown in the success of the Chicago St. Louis & New Orleans
Railroad Company in funding its old bonds into seventy-year
gold 5s of 1951. This company has already taken up and canceled $408,000 of eight per cents, |2,110,000 of seven per
cents, and $7,482,000 of six per cents, by the issue of $10,000,000
of five per cents, thereby saving $129,260 per annum in interest
charge.
The company is now paying par and interest to
August 1, 1881, for the valid overdue second mortgage bonds
of the Mississippi Central Eailroad Company, thus retiring
about $400,000 more of eight per cent debt.

Columbus Chicago & Indiana Central.— A subscriber of
the Chronicle sends the following for publication:

be observed that in the above table the distance from
Detroit to Toledo is placed at sixty miles instead of sixty-five,
as it is by existing roads. This is on account of the saving of
five miles in getting into Toledo, the depot grounds of the Columbus & Toledo being so situated that the circuit of the city
made by the Lake Shore and the Canada Southern roads is
avoided, even when their tracks are used after leaving the city.
It is possible that the new line to be built will still further

"Denver & Rio (Jrande— Union Paciflc— Work is to be
pushed on the Denver & Rio Grande new short line to Leadville, which will leave the main line at Acequia, Col., eighteen
miles south of Denver, and run by Fairplay to South Arkansas,
where it will join the present Leadville line. The new line will
be somewhat shorter than the Denver South Park & Paciflc
Road from Denver to Leadville. The Eagle River Branch is
now completed and opened for business to Tennessee Pass, nine
miles northward from Leadville. The San Juan Division is

completed to Arboles, Col., thirty-seven miles west of the late
terminus at Amargo, 123 miles from Antonita and 402 miles
from Denver.

Gen. George W. Cass appearing by M. J. Smiley, Esq. D.
Darwin Hughes, of this city, appeared for the Pennsylvania
road, the Pennsylvania Company, the Grand Rapids & Indiana
Company, and the Continental Improvement Company, and
filed an intervening petition, asking the same thing, both
nominating Kdmnnd Smith, Second Vice-President of the Pennsylvania Railroad, as such trustee. Samuel J. Tilden, Clarkson
N. Potter, and others, of New York, holders of over $600,000 of
bonds, appeared by Clair, Kingsley & Klenhaus, of this city,
and filed a bill in chancery also asking the appointment of a
trustee, but objecting to the appointment of any one interested
in the Pennsylvania Railroad, which now practically controls
the Grand Rapids & Indiana, and is guarantor of it.s iS7,000,000
of bonds. They also affirmed that such an appointment could
not be made on petition, but must be made on a bill in chancery.
It is surmised that they fear a foreclosure on the bonds, as the
Pennsylvania Road holds $2,000,000 of past-due coupons, and
thus a depreciation of their investrflent, which is now considerably above par. Judge Hoyt decided to-day that he could and

plaintiff is George H. Lespinaose, Who sues as a bondholder of
the New York Klevated liailroad Company. The allegationa
are the same in each action, it being claimed that payment of
dividends t)y the Manhattan Company will endanger the rightn
of the bondholders of the two elevated railroad companies. The
motion in the Weiler suit wa« adjourned by mutual consent to
July 21. In the other suit Mr. Thomas Thacher, who appeared
for the plaintiff, asked for a brief adjournment, stating tnat he
had iust come into the case and had not had time to prepare
for the argument. Mr. David Dudley Field opposed the application, saying he had come 160 miles to argue the motion, in
response to the order to show cause, and insisted that the hearing should proceed, as his client wan delayed in the receipt of
$4,500 every hour the iniunction was continued.
Judge Larremore finally adjourned the hearing until Friday,
and then it was put over to July 21.
The motion to continue the injunction in the snit brought in
the Superior Court by the New York Klevated Railroad Company against the Manhattan Railway Company was adjourned
to the 15th.
An application was made to Judge CuUen, in the Supreme

suit begun by the Attorney-General on May 18, for the dissolution of the Jlanhattan Railway Company.
A new suit upon the
same grounds has been begun in the Albany district, and the
Manhattan Railway Company is ordered to show cause, at the
Supreme Court in Kingston, on the 13th inst.,- why a Receiver
should not be appointed. It is also restrained from disposing
of any of its property or assets.

The market was closed for the half of the week under review,
the Exchange having adjourned from Friday evening, July 1, to
Wednesday morning, July 6, the national holiday having
occurred on Monday, July 4. The speculation in futures on
Wednesday was active, the tone buoyant, and prices made an
advance of 17@19 points for this crop, 15 points for September
and 11@13 points for the next crop. The best prices of the day
were not sustained, however, as Liverpool did not support the
advance which she had made during the recess in our market;
advices from Texas reported that the drought in that State
Lad been relieved by needed rains, and crop reports generally

The above statement shows
1. That the total receipts from the plantations since Sept. 1 in
1880-81 were 5,710,133 bales; in 1879-80 were 4,920,853 bales; in
1878-79 were 4,442,611 bales.
2. That, although the receipts at the out-ports the pa.st week
were 19,163 bales, the actual movement from plantations was
only 13,387 bales, the balance bein§ taken from the stocks at the
interior ports.
Last year the receipts from the plantations for
the same week were 10,917 bales and for 1879 they were 1,335

Weather Reports by Telegraph. The weather the past week
has in general been very favorable for cotton. In many sections,
especially in the Southwest, where rain was needed, they have
had delightful showers. In some sections of Texa.s, however,
they still complain that rain is needed. The temperature has
een extremely high in most sections.
Galveston, Texas. We have had rain on three days the past
week, but not enough to do much good, the rainfall reaching
but fifty-five hundredths of an inch. There have been light
showers throughout the State, doing good, but insufficient. Com
is past redemption; only about a half -crop will be made.
Cotton
needs rain everywhere, and in sandy lands and uplands is suffering much.' The first bale of new cotton from the Rio Grranda
regions leaves Brownsville to-day, consigned to New York, taking
rail at Galveston.

In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figure-s, of course, do not inclade overland receipts or

and Monday. At the reThe market was
opening on Tuesday the flour market was weak and unsettled,
and in the course of the next two days there were sales of lines
at 5@10c. decline; but generally holders remained pretty firm.
There is no excess of stock pressing on the market, and the depression has been mainly in sympathy with the course of values
for wheat. To-day the market was strong, but quiet.
The wheat market shows some further decline in prices.
Crop accounts have been good from nearly all directions, and
the speculation has been toward a lower range of values. A
marked decline at Chicago contributed actively to the decline
in this market, which yesterday caused an early advance
to be lost. Some new winter wheat has been sold for
arrival, including amber Missouri at $1 28@$1 29. There'
was considerable done in No. 2 spring on the spot at $1 20^#
f I 21, but the speculation is still mainly restricted to No. 2 red
winter. To-day the market was depressed; No. 2 red winter
quoted at $1 23 for Augist and $1 22Y8 for September, and
No. 1 white on the .spot at $1 24?4@|1 25.
Indian corn declined early in the week, bat has since been
moderately active, in the regular way and for speculation, at
pretty full prices. The weather has been more favorable to crop

the general demand was by no means active. Brown and
bleached goods, wide sheetings, cotton flannels, colored cotton;),
&c., continued to move freely, in execution of former orders,
many of which are still unfllled. Stocks of plain and colored
cottons remain very light in agents' hands, and a positive
scarcity of some makes is apprehended, as many of the smaller
class of jobbers have not yet entered the market as buyers.
Prices of the most desirable fabrics are firmly maintained, and
"
orders for goods to be made are booked " at value only ia
most cases. Print cloths were quiet, but prices ruled steady at
3 15-1 6c., less a small discount for 64x64s, and 3>6c. for 56x609.
Light prints were very quiet, but there was a fair business ia
certain makes of dark fancy prints.
Domestic Wooleu Goods. There was a moderate demand for

—

clothing woolens, in which fancy ca-ssimeres, suitings, worsted
coatings and overcoatings participated, and further large
deliveries of such fabrics were made by agents on account of
back orders. Leading makes of cassimeres, &c.. are still sold ia
advance of production, and prices are generally firm. Cloakinga
