FRIDAY. JUNE 9, 1876—6 P. M.
The money Market and Financial Situation.—The

principal features of the past week have been the suspension of
the Atlantic Mills of Lawrence, Mass., and Cochrane, McLean &

dry goods jobbers in this city, a renewed strength and activity
in government securities, and a rather better tone in speculative
stocks on the declaration of a dividend by Western Union Telegraph, and good reports of railroad earnings for the month of
May. The embarrassments just referred to are, perhaps, designated more Droperly as liquidations than faiiures, if the large
amount of reported assets in proportion to liabilities, may be
taken as a standard; in the case of the Atlantic Mills, the treasurer
states that the land, water-power, mills, machinery, &c., stand
charged at $3,400,000, and the value of the cotton goods and supplies is estimated at $335,000, making the total assets of the corporation !«3,63u,000. The debt May 37 was $843,500, which
deducted from the assets leaves a surplus of $1,783,500. As to
the jobbing house, it has been known for some time that their
paper was not selling well in this market, and it was not therefore so great a surprise when the suspension was announced; in
The
their case also, the amount of assets is said to be large.
occurrence of such failures, however, after putting the l)est possible face on the matter, is undoubtedly prejudicial, and the effect
is immediately seen in the preference given to exceptionally
choice paper, even at 4 per ceut., and in the demand for government securities at the high prices now ruling.
Our local money market has shown no particular change, the
per
rates on call being 3@3i per cent., and on prime paper 4 to
cent., with much discrimination iu favor of the choicest paper.
On Thursday, the Bank of England reported a gain of £47,000
specie for the week, and the discount rate was left unchanged at
2 per cent. The Bank of France gained 13,091,000 francs.
The last statement of the New York City Clearing-House
banks, issued June 3, showed an increase of .$3,041,935 in the
excess above their 25 per cent, legnl reserve, the wliole of such
excess being $16,450,150, against $14,414,235 the previous week.
The following table shows the changes from the previous
Co.,

week and a comparison with 1875 and 1874

United States Bonds. The strength and activity in government securities have been one of the noticeable points of llie
week. There was a marked advance in the prices of five-twenties
in London, which seems to be scarcely accounted for satisfactorily
by the telegrams that it was owing to large purchases made for
the Continent. Both in London and here the advance was chiefly
in the
per cent, is-sues, and comparatively little in the 5 per
cents, which seems to indicate that purchasers have lost confidence
that practicable funding measures will be adopted at the present
session of Congress. Notwithstanding the large advance in
London (generally attributed to the fear of war in Europe), there

has been

done between that market and this, as there was
margin for profitable transactions. Tlie largest
buyers here have been, as usual, the moneyed corporations, but
there have also been numerous inquiries from individual investors,
who have been made very cautious by the decline in stocks and
little

sufficient

railroad bonds.

amount.

The lease of the Southeastern Railway and equipment to the
Passumpsic Railroad, and the contract between the latter railroad
and this corporation, expired, by limitation, in March last. These
contracts havo not been attended with direct profit, but have
resulted in an efficient and economical line to Montreal, which, in
•connection with other incidental advantages to both the Passumpsic and this corporation, promises, with the recurrence of
business activity, favorable pecuniary results. While, therefore,
the lease and contract have not been formally renewed, they have
been practically continued in force, and the line and the business
operation and connections of the roads forming it have been continued as heretofore.

The best interests of the corporation seemed to the directors to
require the extension of the branch from the Fahyan House to
the base of Mount Washington, a distance of about seven miles,
there connectingjdirectly with the Mount Washington Railway
extending to the summit. Accordingly, contracts for its construe
tion were entered into last fall and the work was then commenced.
It is expected that this extension will be completed and opened
for public travel by the first of next July.
The directors trust that the future of the corporation will soon
warrant the issuing of the consolidated stock to the satisfaction
and for the best interests of all concerned. During the past year,
we have sold consolidated bonds to the amount of $345,100, the
proceeds of which have been applied towards payment lor the
branch extension.
BOSTON CONGO 'in 4 MO^tTRIAI. HAILUOAD, MARCH 31, 1876,
Dr.

The

directors, nubject to the approval of the stoekliolder* of
lease of the Xashna Acton & Boston
Railroad for the term of ten years, from Jan. 1, 1870, and at the

company, have taken a

this

rent of $11,000 per annum. Id connection with this lease, par>
chases of the rolling stock, and other furniture of the same road,
have been made by this company to the amount of $70,0*0. These
purchases were necessary for the purposes of the leasr, bnt tba
property would bo useful to this read, and was taken at soeh
prices that there would be no loss to this company on it, even If
the lease should not be approved and continued. In addition to
this, a loan of $73,500 has been made by this company to tbo
Nashua Acton
lijston Railroad, to enable it to discharge soma
of its obligations, which it was desirable to have removed in
order to accomplish the lease. This loan is made on secaritjwhich the directors regard as reliable, and the interest on it ia
provided for by allowance from the rent of the lease. The sum
of $16,513 has been paid towards the purchase ol the property,
above mentioned from the earnings of this road, during the paat
year, and is included in the foregoing expenses of that year.
To provide for the balance of these purchases, and also to
supply the place of the funds used for the loan referred to, it haa
been necessary for this company to make temporary loana on Ita
own credit, for which its notes have l>een given.

The report has the following
Owing to the continued peneral depression of business, the
gross receipts have fallen off about $52,500 during the year, as
:

During the year, 456 tons of iron and 200 tons of steel rails, and
53,030 new sleepers have been laid in the track, and about 3,300
tons of rails have been repaired and ro-laid. One new mail mud
eleven freight cars have been built as additions to the equipmant
of the road, and one passenger engine and seventeen freight cans
have been re-built to supply the place of others and the road
and furniture have been kept in good repair. The report wtym :
The statement of earnings and expenses from the agent's
department, if compared with that of the previous year, woaTd
indicate a large decrease of income during the past year. Bnt «
part of the difference which thus appears arises merely from »
change in the form of the accounts; the statement of last y««r
having included certain receipts which now appear in the ItMK
of balance of interest account.
The actual falling off in the total income of the road darinf^UM
year, from that of the previous year, has arisen from those geaaial
causes which have so severely depressed the business of railroad^
in common with other enterprises, during the year.

The amount

of outstandi|ng Flint and Holly bonds is stated at
$400,500. This will appear iuconsistent with recently published
Bt»temeats in which the sum is given as $375,000. The discrep.
ancy is explained by the fact that the trustees redeemed the bonds
of tiiat issue that matured on the first of May, 18T5, but have not
yet returned them cancelled to the Treasurer's office.

The bonds

of the first trust having been redeemed and cancelled (except $1,000, as stated in the report), and the remaining
«B9et8 of this and the second trust being largely in excess of the
Flint and Holly bonds, $380,009 of which do no't mature till 1888,
this credit balance was disposed of, under direction of the Board,
as provided in the Trust Deed of Aug. 2, 1875, by a conveyance
to trustees of the latter trust of real estate to extent of $113,411
for security of bonds therein named, and by merging the balance
into the genera] fund of the company to the extent of .§01,593.
Tlie issue of 8 per cent land-grant bonds was not secured on the
bmds from which these funds were lealized.
The expenses of 1875 were largely increased by reason of tbe
Tery severe and protracted winter of '74 and '75, during which
the damage to track and rollinff stock and the cost of removing
Bnow were excessive. The cross earnings and operating expenses

report of this company lor the year 1875 contains the state
meuts below the report of the connecting line, the St. Paul &

The President says
The final arljustment of our lands with the State of Iowa has
not been made, and no deeds have been received from the State
during the past year. The suit brought by the McGregor Railway
Company, for about 190,000 acres of our lands, pending at date
of my last report, remains undecided. By the advice of a majority
of the Directors, I entered into an agreement with the McGregor
Company to refer the claim made by them to Eon. S. F. Miller
for decision, both parties agreeingto abide by his determination of
the cas". The greater portion of lands heretofore sold, haie been
for bonds, and at prices that would redeem the face of the bonds.
or neaily so. without including the lands in suit. Should those
lands be lost to the company, the remaining lands will h^ve to be
soH at the lull appraised value, and great care and economy
practiced to make the lands redeem tlie bonds.
As President ef
tlie coinpauv and Trustee lor the bondholders, I deem it uiy duty
to hold the lands at present pr'ces, until the qaesiiou of disputed,
title is settled. Feeling confident of success in obtaining title for
the lauds in suit. I have contracted to sell some of them, and a
small portion of the bonds on hand are deposited on account of
such sal-s. No deeds have been given, and if ou' title fails, the

At the

^'3,300 000. From sales made sinc^ January 1st, IST'J, boads have
been received for sale of deeded lands equal to the amount
received for sale or contract of disputed lands, so we miy safely
cancel the full amount shown by this report to be on hand.
I
think it proper lo remind all holders of land bonds that their
bonds may be exchanged for any lands of the company, at
appraised prices for land, and at the face value of the bonds.

In March last, steps were taken with the view to secure to
this company control of the lines of the Southern & Atlantic Telegraph Company, in case it should become desirable to
do so. Early in May it became expedient to close the matter,
which was done by purchasing a majority of the stock. A lease
of the lines has since been negotiated, the details of which have
been substantially settled, and it is expected that possession will
be given us in a short time.

General trade has remained dull, but speculation in Ixadiog
."laples hag received a new impulse from the condition and prospects of political affairs on the Continent, it bf^ing doubtful
whether peace shall be maintained in Europe, or whetiior a
general war shall break out. In mercantile circles the discussion
has been active concerninsr the probable effect of such a war
upon business and values, and the course of speculation basbeen
largely influenced by conflicting views.
Private advices from
England have jreneraDy given assurance of the maintenance of
peace; butthey do not receive full credit with us. The weather has
become warm, and crop prospects are almost uniformly favorable.
The speculation in hog products has been generally towards
higher prices, stimulated in part by the reduclion that has been
effected in stocks, but more directly by the expectation of war in
Europe, and the export demand to which it may give rise. Besides, the summer production is not so iarge as in previous years.
Mess pork to-day was quoted at $19 50 on the spot, and the closing bids for future delivery, were $19 20 for July, |19 05 for
August, $19 .'50 for September and for October. Lard has recovered nearly one cent a pound from the lowest point, and. sold

owing to the very extensive correspondence we have been undertaken this year, which promises to result in an amount of information on this subject never before gathered. One point in particular we have sought to determine, and that is the exact planting

If this can be reached, and the increased or decreased planting in

it is of far more importance to know, in seeking to reach a correct
conclusion, whether acres that easily produce 500 lbs. have been
substituted for those which, with difliculty, produce 90 lbs., or
nee versa, and just to what extent this has been done. With regard to the result of previous crops, we began collecting our information several months isince, and our returns have been very

In examining the American portion of the above, our readei
should remember that on 18th of May the American afloat fo
Liverpool was 303,000 bales, and the stock at our outports
4.58,325 bales, and the amount likely to be received at the port
from May 18 to Sept. 1, about 180,000 bales, or a total of aboui
840,000 bales. Out of this, we should allow for England ai
least .^50,000 bales more than the highest estimate of American
given above. It was not our purpose, however, to criticise tht
various items in these estimates, but simply to warn our reader)
against acting on the supposition that the prices named are to fc
for certainly we have no good reason for expectin'j
reached
them to be, in any event other than that we have mentioneda disaster to our crop.

vessels carrying cotton from United States ports :
Obibntal. Hedge, from Bavannab of. and for, Boston, wentashore on Harding's
Ledge, at 7:.30 P. M., June 4. in a fog. The passengers, twen'y in nnmber, were taken off by H-hing schooner Omega, and rwiched Boston
shortly after midnight. The steamer bilged and fllled with water, bnt,
with a continnance of favorable weather, may be saved. Her cargo will
be saved Two lighters, loaded wlthcoUon, wool and rosin, arrived at
Boston 6th.
—Boston, June 6 —Steamer Oriental still remains ashore, two lighter loads of
cetton, rosin and hide-* h.Hving arrived in Ihiscity. A purvey will be
h-*ld on the vess'^l this afterntson, when the question will be considered
whether ihe expense of gettin:; her ofl'and the cost of repurs necessary

market was without essential change during the past
week, but towards the close became more active, with a slight
upward tendency. The export demand wae good lor common
and medium extras, ranging from $.') 10 to f 20 and the better
grades of bakers' and family brands were latterly more salable.
This is especially true of Southern Hours. Supplies for this point
have not come forward very freely, but there is an iocrrased
production at the West, for which our receivers are inclined to
make room. Rye flour has tended upward, and corn meal haa
been quite active a: a slight decline. To-day, the market
dull and weak, except for common shipping extras.
The wheat market was variable throughout the week, in ton*
as well as in volume of basiness. Receipts all all points have
materially increased, and crop accounts are excellent, but the
influences have proceeded fmm the daily changes in the phases
assumed by political affairs on the Costinent. The offerings have
been free, and the demand promptly filled, so that very little
improvement has taken place on the reduced prices noted in oar
last.
Yesterday there were large sales of No. 2 spring at |1 ITJ
for Chicago and |1 20 for Milwaukee, with prime No. 1 at |1 32.
To-day, there was a further advance of ^.,whicb checked businees.
