Tenders are to be received at the Bank of England on Friday
next for fl, 500,000 Treasury bills] in the usual amounts of
£1,000, £5,000 and £10,000 each. This loan is to repay bills
which mature on the 11th proximo.
The annual report of the Deputy Master of the Mint has
appeared this week. It establishes the fact that a sovereign
becomes light after being in circulation for eighteen years, and
the report concludes with the statement that before the end of
the year the Mint will probably be in a position to undertake a
long and continuous gold coinage. It also suggests that the
Treasury may now proceed to consider what steps should be
taken to deal with the evil of light coinage. About £50,000,000
will require to be recoined, and on the withdrawal of that sum
there would be a loss of about £650,000.

The silver market has been steady, the price of fine bars
being 52J^d. per ounce.
On the Stock Exchange during the week business has been
ery quiet and restricted. The tone has, on the whole, been
stsady, but there hav^ been no features of importance.
Favorable weather for the growing crops has had the natural
efifect of producing much quietness in the wheat trade.
The
supplies of home-grown produce offering in the country markets remain small, and the receipts from abroad have been only
moderate. The quantity of produce afloat to this country is
still considerable, and as there is the prospect of an early harvest in Europe millers natural'y prefer to keep their purchases
within strictly necessary limits. The holders of wheat, however, are firm, and they show no inclination to accept lower
prices, especially as far as the better qualities of wheat are
During the week ended May 20 the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to 41,266 quarters, against 28,402 quarters last year
and 26,677 quarters in 1880j while it is estimated that they
were in the whole kingdom 165,100 quarters, against 113,600
quarters and 106,700 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the
150 principal markets have amounted to 1,635,624 quarters,
against 1,477,537 quarters and 1,152,251 quarters; the estimate
for thejwhole kingdom being 6,542,500 quarters, against 5,554,150
quarters in the corresponding period of last sea.son and 4,634,400
quarters in 1879-80. Without reckoning the supplies of produce

furnished ex-granary at the commencement of the season, it
is e.stimated that the following quantities
of wheat and flour
have been placed on the British markets since harvest. The

London. Satarday, May 30, 1882.
The arrivals of gold from New York have been considerable,
and advices of farther supplies having been received, the
money market has assnmed an easier appearance; bat the Bank
rate remains at 3 per cent, while the open market qaotation for
discount accommodation is 2M to 2% per cent.
Evidently,
therefore, the important receipts of gold have not depressed
the money market, and this is to be accounted for by the Italian
demand for gold and by the more general activity which has
manifested itself of late in the financial world. It cannot be
said, however, that the demand for money for commercial purposes has increased, notwithstanding that the volume of our
commercial transactions has been augmented. Mercantile business is evidently conducted on the basis of short credits, and
bankers are not much resorted to for assistance. But on the
other hand, the large business which is now in progress in connection with public companies is exciting some influence over
the money market, and is checking any return of the depression to which the money market has been subject during recent
summers. Of late years, at thi.i period of the season, the value
of money has fallen to a very low point, one year in particular
the rate of discount in the open market being only 1,
and
even
per cent per annum, with a bank rate of 2 per cent. No
such unsatisfactory condition of things is now possible, aa gen-

There has been a small demand for gold for export to
Holland; but the export movement has been far from active,
and the bulk of the supplies received from New fork has been
sent into the Bank. The sL'ver market has been quiet, and
prices have slightly decliced, the Continental demand having
fallen off. Mexican dollars have been sold at 5lMd. to 51Hd.

THE CHUONICLE.

Brown, Shipley, and J. S. Morgan & Co.), who are buyers of
of eichange in the United States, Canada and South
America, have, with practical unanimity, decided to adopt the
same rate for bills negotiated abroad after the 15th proi.
Messrs. Bariug Brothers & Co. announce that they are prepared to receive applications for |3,750,000 Atchison Topeka
& Santa Fe six per cent railroad bonds, the balance of a total
of .$5,000,000 being taken at Paris, at 105 per cent (4s. per $1),
or £210 per bond of |1,000. There is a sinking fund of 1 per
cent for the first ten years, and afterwards of not less than 2
per cent per annum.
The weather has been very brilliant, but the nights havg
been cold, owing to the prevalence of easterly winds. Vegetation has, therefore, been somewhat checked but the prospect
bills

;

is

as satisfactory as could be desired, certainly as far as cereals

we concerned. The

understood to have suffered
much from the gale which visited us three weeks a^o, but the
grass crop promises to yield good results, and in many other
respects vegetation is making healthy progres-s. As soon,
probably, as the east winds leave us, we may have some warm
and genial rains. These would be productive of great benefit,
as the rainfall this year has been exceedingly light.
The trade for wheat during the week has been very quiet
but, owing to the still diminishing visible supply in. the United
Stat-es, prices do not decline to any important extent.
Good
vheat is in fact held at full prices, which are, in the majority
of cases, obtained. Millers buy sparingly, and only to supply
actual wants. This course they will no doubt continue to
pursue as long as the weather remains fine, and there is the
prospect of an early and average harvest.
During the week ended May 13 the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to 35,915 quarters, against 34,110 quarters last year
and 26,793 quarters in 1880; while it is computed that they
were in the whole kingdom 143,660 quarters, against 136,440
quarters and 107.180 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the
150 principal markets have been 1,594,358 quarters, against
1,449,135 quarters and 1,125,574 quarters; the estimate for the
whole kingdom being 6,377,500 quarters, against 5,440,540
quarters in the corresponding period of last season and 4,527,700
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
yisible supply of wheat in the United States is also given

" Messrs. W. M. Johnston, of the firm of R. T. Wilson & Co.,
bankers, of New York City, owners of the New Orleans & Mississippi Valley Railroad, and John A. Grant, chief engineer of
the new line, returned to the city after having made a thorough
reconnoissance of the entire roate from here to Memphis, the

terminus of the road.
" The gentlemen give an enthusiastic account of the section
of conntry through which the new line is being constructed.
They find the line very favorable for constraction, with easy
grades and very few water courses to cross." * «
"The contractors have already begun work between New
Orleans and Baton Rouge and Vicksbarg and Port Gibson." * *
" It is expected to have the entire line completed and in operation
between New Orleans and Memphis within eighteen
months."

New York & New England.— A meeting of the New York
& New England Railroad Company is to bf held on Jane 15,
instant, to see if the company will accept the act of the State
Legislature to provide for the sale or exchange of the shares of
the Commonwealth, and a resolution of the Legislature of Connecticut amending the charter of the company, and also to
take such action as may be deemed expedient in relation to the

iwue of bonds secured by a second mortgage on the property
and franchises of the company for an amount not exceeding
96,000,000, and to the retirement or acquisition by the compuiy of the shares of its stock held by the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts and to the provisions of said act of the Con;

Villard of the Northern Pacific Railroad Company announced
here to-day the fact that his company had closed the purchase
from the St. Paul Minneapolis & "Manitoba Company of the
latter's line along the eastern bank of tne Mississippi River,
between Watab and Anoka. He also states that the Northern
Pacific Company will now proceed to bridge the Mississippi
at Anoka, and from that point extend the purcha-sed line into
Minneapolis. These changes assure to the Northern Pacific a
continuous line, owned by itself, from Minneapolis to Brainerd
on its trunk line, and from Minneapolis trains will reach St.

Legislature.
The terms are, thirty per cent of its gross
earnings, with a guarantee from the Old Colony Company of
five per cent interest on the first mortnge bonds of the Fall
River Road of $200,000. The Fall River Road is doing a good
basiness, which is steadily increasing.
Daring the past year
this company has made many improvements at Fall River, and
has paid most of its floating indebtedness, and will prove to be
an important acquisition to the Old Colony system, and of great
advantage financially to its stock and bond holders.

made in two or three leading'stockB, necesBarily affecting in a greater or less degree the whole market,
and this is but a legitimate fruit of the inflation of 1880-81,
in which prices of certain specialties were carried up far
above their reasonable value.
The average buyer of stocks will now be inclined to make
two inquiries first, What is likely to be the course of the
General mai-ket in the next two montlis, as it may be directed
y the attitude of the great operators and by the export of
gold, the crop yield, the labor strikes, and the commercial
prosperity of the country at large ? Secondly, What is the
the large decline

—

prospect for each particular stock on tlie list, judged on its
own merits and earning capacity, apart from the rest, and
without regard to the market forces of any particular week or
month ? In reply to the first inquiry, a rational answer would
seem to be, that the condition of the country is good, the crop
prospects are very fair for a much better yield than in 1881,
the export of gold is not yet threatening to our money market,
the labor strikes are more likely to be adjusted than to continue for many months, and the commercial prosperity of the
country is generally sound. As to the position of the great
speculators, whose operations have had so much to do with the
course of our market in the past year or two, it may be pretty
safely asserted that they will do in the future what they
have done in the past, and that is, try at each turn to make
a little more money for themselves, either by bulling or
bearing stocks, as may best suit their own purposes.
In answer to the second question above, as to the value of
each particular stock, it is obvious that no reply can be made
in the limited space of this report; and indeed it is only
possible to obtain such an answer by a constant study of the
stocks from week to Week,— their reports, earnings, current
financial operations, management, &c.
have urged before,
that in a ragged and unsettled market, such as we now have,
the only rational way to look at stocks was to take each one
on its own merits and not to trust again to any grand advance
along the whole line that would carry everytlung before it.
What connection is there, for instance, between Reading and
Texas Pacific, between Lake Shore and Richmond & Danville,
between Jersey Central and Illinois Central, between Central

We

Pacific

and Delaware Lackawanna

&

Western, and so on to
list ?
It is quite true that a large yield of crops
in all parts of the country would benefit all the railroads,
but even with this imiversal abundance there are many other
points to be considered in the case of each railroad.
As to the actual condition of the crops this week, a private
letter from one of the most prominent flour and grain houses
of the country says that wheat promises a decidedly larger
yield than in 1881 though probably not up to 1880, which was an
exceptional year other small grains are said to be " in larger
breadth and in better condition than ever before." As to com,
the delay in planting, on account of the cold, wet weather, is
fully admitted, but they say there is yet time to make a good
"
crop.

State and Railroad Bonds.— Transactions in State bonds
have been very limited. The Tenessees closed to-day at 56 and
old Tennessees at 56J^. The State officers are promptly on
hand, and have opened an office at 7 Nassau Street for the
purpose of receiving and examining bonds previous to funding them under the act of May 19, 1882.
Railroad bonds have not shown a large business for investment, but prices of the fii-st-class bonds vary hardly at all with
the fluctuations of the stock market. Erie seconds have been
active, and sold down to 87%, but afterwards recovered, and

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stoclcs,— The stock market
has been weaker than heretofore, and also much more active,
the sales on the decline having been large. One failure of a
stock-commission house occurred, through the inability of
customers to make good their margins, and this was made the
most of by the bears, and to-day the street was filled with
rumors of different failures, apparently without any foundaThe weakest stocks have been attacked, as usual, and
tion.
the decline effected in these lias been made use of to depress
the whole market. Two of the most active stocks in the
downward movement were Denver & Rio Grande and Louisville & Nashville, and from various indications it is surmised
that in each case there are strong parties trying to get control
of the property. It has been reported at the West that
C. B. & Q. would obtain the Denver & Rio Grande, but this
does not appear to us at all certain. It is tolerably clear
that where such efforts are made to depress prices as we have,
ha* the past fortnight, there are some parties very anxious
to buy; but whether this may be for the long account, to obtain control of certain roads, or merely to cover short sales, the
future must determine. After a very weak and unsettled
market during most of the day, there was a decided rally to-

wards the close, and prices became much steadier.
Western Union Telegraph has been well supported, although
the Mutual Union is reported to be progressing rapidly.
Among the other Gould stocks, Wabash wiis the weakest.
There is more steadiness in the Vanderbilts, and they do not
yield as easily as they did a few weeks ago. The Northwestern stock is very firm on account of the company's large
earnings. St. Paul, with the ten per cent stock dividend to be
made, and the right to take ten per cent more stock, at par, has
fluctuated within a moderate limit. There have been reports
of a negotiation between Messrs. Gould and Garrett involving

The New York City Clearmg-House banks in tlieir statement the Baltimore & Ohio's access to New York over the Jersey

on May 27.

For the purpose of supplying rolling stock which was absolotelr necessary, the Wisconsin Central stockholders were in
December, 1879, invited to join iff organizing a car oompanj
which should from time to time bay what new rolling stock and
motive power the trustees needed, when and as reqaired, and
thus enable them to retain and increase the business which was
within their natural territory. The trustees offered to hire from
the proposed new car company such equipment as they shoald
designate from time to time, agreeing to employ all cars so furnished as soon a.s they were deliverea on the road, and to retain
them on rental until such time as the trustees, or their successors in operating the road, should elect to buy them.
At first
$200,003 of new rolling stock was thas supplied but the neceshities of the road tiave reqaired successive additions, and Uie
leased eqaipment now amounts to $659,000.

abandon altogether the use of the Milwaukee & Northern Railroad, and to surrender its psssession on the 31st of July, 1883,
to its owners; and to encourage the immediate construction o£
a new line to Milwaukee from our terminus for our own ose.
" It was evidently so expedient for the Wisconsin Central
Railroad to control its own avenue to Milwaukee, that a new
organization was quickly formed among its stockholders to
build the Milwaukee & Lake Winnebago Railroad; and the
trustees and the Wisconsin Central Railroad Company decided
:

to join in leasing it for ninety-nine years. This railway is
being rapidly built along the west shore of Lake Winnebago,
throuprh the considerable cities of Oshkosh and Fond du Lao
to Schleisingerville, a town on the Chicago Milwaukee & St.
Paul Railway distant about thirty miles from Milwaukee.
Before the new lease is to take effect, the Milwaukee & Lake
Winnebago Railroad will be completely furnished with suitable equipment, and laid with the best qua'ityof 8te«l rails, 56
pounds to the yard, on a road-bed constructed in first-class
manner and in every way equal to the best portions of the
Wisconsin Central main line. The parmanent control of this

use of the St. Paul track from Schleisingerville into Milwaukee,
and of all the terminal facilities in Milwaukee of that great
company, have been permanently arranged by contract with
the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Company for the
use of the Wisconsin Central business; and it is probable that,
before the end of 1882, the Wisconsin Central Railroad will be
enjoying the full advantages of the new route." * * *
"I'he heavy outla.vs which we have been obliged to make in
renewals and improvements have been made with your sanction and authority. They have rendered, of course, the payment of any interest on the second series bonds, for the present,
impossible, but these present eipenditures will result in earning for the second series bonds tneir full maximum interest at
a much earlier day than any other policy could hope to aooomplish. The first series bonas. under the reorganization, beria

policy which you have adopted, and steadfastlr pursued, seema

reasonably early day, something may be apportioaed, under
the terms of the trust deed, ana paid for interest upon th»

Mr. H. B. Hammond, the President, remarks in his report,
•• that each year
there is a marked increase in the income of
your property and without a corresponding increase of expenses of obtaining the same. It will be observed that during the
first year of your organization (1875) the gross earnings were
$165,936, and during the last year $297,291, showing an increa.se
of $131,305 ; that during the first year the operating expenses
were $128,635, and during the last year $123,225, showing a
decrease of $5,410. This improvement is shown equally in the
physical condition of your property, and jyou are urged to
examine the same to verify this statement. Where once there
was a defective roadway with superstructure imcomplete and
worn o-^t, yon have now a roadway equal to any in the State
of Connecticut, with a superstructure of the most approved
character and in excellent condition. In place of the most

of the cables.'
" Every jear or two a fresh agreement of this kind has to be made,
and in their efforts to silence competition, the old companies are reducing more and more seriously their proportion nf joint earnings. After
the Anglo-American Company had absorl>ed the original Atlantic Tele-

graph Company, the first French Atlantic Telegraph Company was
started, and tliis was taken over by amalgamation, in which the French
Company certainly did nut obtain the worst of the bargain. Then the
Direct United States Cable was started, wiih the express pnrpose of
introducing competition but after a time the Anglo-American, with
the aid of the Globe Trust, succeeded in turning out the Direct Company's board and dividing profits. Then another French cable was
agam laid, and the same tactics of lowering the tariff were pursued,
until the second French company agreed to a joint-oiir.se arrangement.
Last year, Mr. Jay (iould started an American Cable Company, and
after a long spell of the Is. a word tariff, his lines are now bronght
within the arrangement. "The coast is. therefore, clear for the establishment of another opposition cable."

Canadian Pacific of 5,000,000 acres, together with a half

week, the transfer of the Connotton Valley & Slraitgville property
to this company was finally ratified, and the deed executed and
delivered. This line will be know aa the Straitsvilie Division.
By vote of the directors, it was resolved that measures be
taken as soon as possible to construct the .Straitsvilie Division

already surveyed and partially constructed, and that the Western Executive Committee be instructed to obtain proposals for
the work from responsible parties, and to execute the contract

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.
Fkidat Nioht, June

9, 1882.

The weather has been warm and summer-like the

past week,
iwith frequent rains, giving a great impulse to the growing
brops and 'relieving much of the apprehension that was felt in
Uay, owing to the prolonged low temperature. Strikes of ironworkers at Pittsburg and other points at the West are still in
brogress, unsettling values and causing some uneasiness in
correlative branches of trade. The high prices of agricultural
products has reduced our eiports, and caused great dnlness in
that branch of trade j and business generally, except in the
necessaries of life, is kept within narrow limits. But this
situation has manifestly passed the worst and is improving,
with strong probabilities of an early return of a prosperous

LivBRPOoL Cotton BxcHANas.—On Karoh 18 last we anaonoead
that the New York Cotton Biohange had been tAf\ni-i\ of tb«
organization on March 5 of a Liverpool Cotton Bichang.-, which
eipected to be readr for bnsinewt on or aboat Jane 1. Wa
expressed the hope that some compromiae miftht be arranged
with the Liverpool Cotton Brokers'^ Asaooiation, to enable l>oth
bodies to work together barmonionsly, bat the latter decided
on March 26 to expel any of their members joinlnir or even
employing a person who was a member of the new Liverpool
Cotton Kiehange.
It is said that efforts have since been made to effect an nnderstanding in order to anite the two corporations, bat tliat thus
far they have been nnsaccessfal.
We notice, however, that the opening of the Liverpool Cotton
Exchange has been pat off to the end of June, time being Uins
given for further deliberation.
As a union appears to be in the interest of both parties, not
only as regards regulation of all trading, but also with repect
to expensef, it would seem almost certain that this end will
ultimately be reached, even though deferred for the present.

given by a contemporary, we understand are not correct.
the New Orleans Picayune of the
4th inst. we take the following: "Messrs. V. & A. Sleyer & Co.
send us a cotton bloom, the first of this season, on Tiger Bend,
Avoyelles Parish. It comes from Mr. M. Haas, accompanied by
the remark that there is a favorable prospect of a good harvest."

The Fibst Bloo.m.— From

JirrE Butts, Baqgino, Etc.— The market is quiet and only a
jobbing business is being done. Buyers are indifferent and will
scarcely take a large quantity even when concessions are made.
Prices are about steady and holders continue to quote 7Mc. for
1?6 lb.. 8^c. for IM lb., 9^c. for 2 lb., aud lO^c. for standard
grades, but we hear that good buyers can obtain goods at a
shade under these figures. Butts are in the same position and
prices are nominally unchanged, but the feeling is easy in the
absence of large transactions. There have been sales of some
1,000 bales in lots, and for these 2}^@2 13-16c. were the figures
paid for paper qualities, while bagging grades are held at 2%
@2%c.. with some sellers naming up to 3c.
COMPAKATIVE PoRT RECEIPTS AND DaILY CKOP MoVE.MENT.
A comparison of the port movement by weeks is not accurate
as the weeks in different years do not end on the same day of
the month. We have consequently added to our other standing
tables a daily and monthly statement, that the reader may
constantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative
movement for the years named. The movement each month
since September 1, 1881, has been as follows.

com has been

irregular and unsettled and at times
owing to an active speculation. After frequent fluctuations, however, the figures current toward the
close show some decline for the week. Corn has sympathized
with wheat to some extent, and the weather advices from the
agricultural districts have at times been unfavorable, but
latterly the prospect has improved and prices have been correspondingly depressed. To-day the market was irregular,
cash corn being steady, while options were j^@lc. lower; No. 2

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
Friday. P. M„ June 9, 1882.
Business has been strictly moderate with the package houses

during the past week, in spite of the arrival of a good many
buyers for interior markets, and it has become evident that
operations in fall goods will be deferred until the actual condition of the crops upon which so much depends— can be
definitely ascertained.
There is, however, a much better feeling
in the trade, and a renewal of activity in the not far distant
future is confidently expected in the best-informed quarters.
The season has so far advanced that seasonable goods were
mostly quiet in first hands; but the warm weather has developed
a slight improvement in the jobbing branches of the trade, and
retailers have been so actively employed in the distribution of
summer fabrics that they will soon be compelled to re-enter the
market for fresh supplies. Values of the most staple fabiaes
of domestic and foreign manufacture are steadily maintained,
and stocks are in very good shape as a rule, though certain
