This statement more gratifying that earnings in May, 1880, were very heavy, our table for that month exhibiting an improvement over May, 1879, of almost 24 per cent, and even in May, 1879, earnings were already slightly better than in the preceding year. Taking the roads as a whole, the upward movement in earnings, which began, say, in May, 1879, has continued without material interruption for two years now, and there appears as yet to be no check to its progress.

In this State, to constitute an indorsee of negotiable paper, a holder for value, so as to exclude the equities of antecedent parties, it is not sufficient that the transfer should be valid as between the indorser and indorsee, but in addition the latter must have relinquished some right, incurred some responsibility, or parted with value upon the credit of the paper at the time of the transfer. And the court further held that an actual relinquishment of the debtor's previous check in exchange for the note transferred was sufficient, and that something of the kind was necessary, to constitute "parting with value," by New York law. + 289,513 295 564 146 295 492 146 2,634 -87,268 2,415 840 220 335 840 220 335 3,800 2,770 3,000 2,253 261 -f 6,903 -fl6,126 -1,900 -f8,751 -3,752 -1-403,256 -11,932 -(-31,405 -(-26,243 -(-9,821 -(-23,787 -451 -(-323,072 837 620 80 391 144 690 -3.176 87 -f 12,672 508 311 470 80 391 156 422 -(-49,045 8-23 -14.315 292 522 918 402 212 152 625 385 87 508 311 823 293 522 918 402 212 152 544 308 1,840 1,561 330 113 246 243 506 316 734 250 195 330 113 218 158 506 282 723 125 195 71 686 499 656 100 -f44,738 -(-38,279 -25,539 -2,711 -H6,897 + 8,809 + 12,737 + 154,686 + 15,981 + 4.199 + 18,025 + 27,821 + 16,167 + 31,570 + 82,267 + 16,542 + 74,642 + 22,379 7.022 71 + 131,247 686 598 800 100 763 - + 107,536 + 100,743 + 4,321 + 120,300 + 323,968 + 21,953 + 2.466,457 3,446 2,479 50O 3,002 2,384 32,905 28,96a In each year, earnings than in the corresponding —- Jims n, month cotton THE CHROxVICLR 1681.1 in 1880, we had this year a heavy increase in the makes quite a gain for an interior depot.

THE CHRONICLE. 1881.] [From our own correspondent.] London, Saturday, May 28, 1881. There has been rather more demand for money this week, owing chiefly to the settlement on the Stock Exchange, which was comparatively heavy. About £2,000,000 is also said to have been locked up in connection with the new Hungarian loan, and the quotation for short loans has ia consequence risen to 2 per cent. In the state of the discount market, however, there ia no The supply of mercantile paper is still very material change. limited, and the rate of discount for three months' bills does not exceed IM to 1% pet cent. The market shows no indications of change, and, with the exception of a temporary demand for Stock Exchange purposes, it has presented no important feature. The banks, have, however, for some time past been affording the Stock Exchange great facilities for speculation, and these operations seem to form a large proportion of their business.

The subscription price of the $1,000 bond is £202, which Is equal at the present exchange Messrs. J. of $1,000,000 (part of a total of to about 97 per cent. During the week the prospectuses have appeared of seveni new companies, chiefly of mining undertakings. The directors of the "Victorine Gold Mining Company (Limited)" invite applications for 69,855 first mortgage bonds of £1 each, part of an issue of 100,000 bonds, the balance having been already subscribed. The company is to work a group of gold mines in Nevada. The share capital is £305,000, in £1 shares, of which 300,000 go to the vendor in payment, with £50,000 cash. The bonds are a first charge upon the property ; they will bear interest at the rate of 10 per cent, and are redeemable at £2 each by six half-yearly drawings in 1882, 1883 and 1884. & Co. have issued a prospectus of a loan for £2,450,000 in six per cent (bonds at the price of 91 per £100 bond) for the Argentine Republic. The money is required fop railway purposes. About 150,000 bales of wool have been disposed of at the gublic sales of Colonial wool now in progress, being nearly onealf of the quantity to be brought forward. Respecting these sales Mr. Helmuth Schwartze writes There is no now feature to record in tlie sales, which progress very steadily. Australian greasy wools sell in full parity with the closing rates of last series, souiei imes even at an advance, especially In the case of the bettei- classes. Fleece-washed sorts are in less request and command only very modciate rates. Superior Port Phillip fleece and. medium Sydncys may thus tje bought very reasonably. Crossbred wools. when fine, continue in good demand, and the coarse-st sorts are less depressed than tit the outset of the s;Ues. The saiuc may bo said of 'aulty scoureds, for which there is now rather better comi)etitiou. As rcgaids Capes, the only sorts still showing any decline ar« low snow whites and scoureds which sell i^d to Id. below last sales. .Ml the other sorts are practically on the March level.

It states that during the first six months of 1880 rather more than £4,150,000 was delivered to the Bank of England, in sovereigns and half-sovereigns, and the total value of the coinage was brought up to £4,185,000. This, add.s the report, is the largest gold coinage executed since 1876, when the amount Issued during the year was £4,700,000. During the intervening period of three years, owing to the general depression of trade, the annual average demand for gold coin from the Mint had been but little more than £1,000,000, the importation of sovereigns issued by the Sydney and Melbourne Mints having each year been sufficient to make up the quantity of new coin required by the Bank of England.

Consols have experienced a slight Business is being conrelapse, but their value is still high. ducted with greater caution, as the rapid introduction of new companies is occasioning greater anxiety. The weather during the week has been much more seasonable. There has been a moderate fall of rain, and the temperature is much higher. More rain, however, is wanted fop the grass lands and the late-sown crops. The wheat plant promises well, but the crop is decidedly backward. The trade for wheat has been quiet, but, on the whole, steady, without material change in prices. During the week ended May 21, the sales of home-CTOwn produce in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales amounted to 28,402 quarters, against 26,677 quarters last year, and 53,672 quarters in 1879 ; and it is estimated that in th« whole kingdom they were 113,600 quarters, against 105,600 quarters and 214,700 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the 150 principal markets have been 1,388,537 quarters, against 1,148,572 quarters in the previous season and 2,085, l.'in quarters in 1878-9 ; the estimate for the kingdom being 5,554,150 quarters, against 4,634,400 quarters and 8,344,700 quarters ia Without reckoning the tne two previous seasons respectively. 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 upon the British markets since harvest.

The tone of confidence, upon the whole, seems to be well maintained, and in some leading stocks there has been a further advance in prices.

It is a pertinent question now for stock operators to ask whether the market is not in such a position that it demands new events as stimulants to advance prices, or even to keep them up to the present standard.

In consequence of this transaction, or scrip dividend, or other transaction of eqaal moment, has taken else making this a pretext for high rates, call loans were bid up place with one railroad corporation or another, which has bulled to 5 per cent on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Canada Southern. (For the year ending December 31, 1880.) From the aunual report, i nst issued, we learn that the namber of miles of road operated iu 1880 was 403, being 67 miles less than the road operat«d up to Noyember 9, 1879, at which date the Chicago & Canada Soathem Railway passed from the control of this company. Of the 403 miles operated, 229 miles are main line (International Bridge to Amherstburgh, Ontario), and 174 miles are brriches and Ivlbutary roads. Th).s company now owns 396 miles, although 104 miles are nominally under four other ortaTizatio is. Of the 396 miles owned, the main line and the Tol. & Det. Div. are laid with steel rails—a total of 2S5 miles. To construction account there were charged during the year $127,746, and in previous years the following 1879, $310,128 ; 1876, $GS,066 ; 1875, !?142,876. 1878, $85,011 ; 1877, 5>31.040 TTie stoc>4 and bonds remain substaniially unchanged. Mr. W. H. Vanderbilt comments as follows upon the business of 1880 ; but although the report is dated June 1, 1881, nothing is said of the earnings during the current year " The year ISSOis distinguished as being the most prosperous year in the history of the Canada Southern Railway Company, and the directors and officers take pleasure in congratulating the shareholders upon the satisfactory and encouraging exhibit which is made in the figures accompanying this report, but particularly upon the large increase in profits which has made it possible to pay to the shareholders the first direct return upon their investment in the shape of a dividend."

The property itself was again leased to Stewart and Abbot, trustees, on substantially the same terms as the temporary lease which they had accepted from the Receiver of the road during the period of foreclosure. The present lease to the trustees is terminable upon six months' notice by either party; and although, as trustees, you deemed it proper to decline to consider a more permanent connection, the interests of both parties will probably lead to the continuance of the * * * present arrangement for some time to come." " The figures given in the accompanying statement cover only the year ending Dec. 31, 1880.

Central of New Jersey. Negotiations have been nearly completed between the Central Railroad of New Jersey and Drexel, Morgan & Co., and the First National Bank, by which new mortgage bonds, amounting to $5,000,000, of the American Dock & Improvement Company are to be taken by these bankers. The bonds are to run forty years, and bear 5 per cent interest. The amount of the new issue is somewhat more than the former mortgage with the accumulated interest. Only $3,000,000 of the bonds under the former mortgage is outstanding, the remaining $1,000,000 of the principal being held in the treasury of the New Jersey Central Railroad, by which the whole issue was guaranteed. The railroad company will receive therefore, from the sale of the new bonds, over $1,000,000 in money. F. S. Lathrop, President of the Jersey Central, said yesterday that the addition of this sum to the money now in Lis hands would enable the company to pay its floating indebtedness and dissolve the receivership. He expressed the opinion that the company would be taken from the hands of the Receiver within ninety days. N. Y. Tribune, June 10. Central of New Jersey PennsylTanla.

A syndicate of eastern and Ohio have bought the controlling interest in the Ken- Kentucky capitalists The latest report concerning the transaction is in the Times dispatch of June 9 from Cincinnati as follows: "M. E. Ingalls, President of the Kentucky Central and the Cincinnati Indianapolis St. Louis & Chicago Railways, returned to this city to-day, and reports that the first sale of the Kentucky Central, reported a few days ago, has fallen through, and. that it has since been purchased by the Chesapeake & Ohio. He makes the following statement: The original purchase was by C. P. Huntington, one-fourth ; M. E. Ingalls, for Cincinnati interests, one-fourth ; Ballon & Co., one-fourth, and another New York interest, one-fourth. This transaction fell through, owing to a difference about the preferred stock, and C. P. Huntington and his friends took the entire option stock on the terms hitherto published— 60c. for common and par for preferred. The Kentucky Central will be extended as hitherto planned to Livingston, but in the meantime will be at once operated by the Chesapeake & Ohio, whose cars will be running into Covington within sixty days. The road will be made all steel, narrowed to the northern gauge, and newly-equipped. As C. P. Huntington already owns the Elizabethtown & Paducah and Paducah & Memphis roads, 250 miles in all, and has surveyors upon the line, 60 miles in length, from Lexington to Elizabethtown, it will be readily seen what a vast system he will control as tributaries to the Kentucky Central. tucky Central Railroad. & Keene.—The referees before whom the Company Manchester & Keene Railroad of the against the City of Keene was tried, to recover certain gratuities, have decided that the company is entitled to recover $128,951, with interest from December 8, 1878.

FLOATINO DEBT. creditors of the company, holding debts of whatever cla.s8, on transferring the same and evidences thereof to the Eeorganization Committee, and depositing the same in the Trust Company, will receive a certificate which, upon the comgletion of the reorganization under said plan, will entitle such older to fifty per cent of the amount of said debt in the new second mortgage income bonds at par. The cash realized under this plan, amounting to about 1330,000, after payment reorganization expenses, will be used in reconstructing present railway so as to put it in proper working order and providing for its full equipment. When the securities under this plan have been deposited, a contract will be made with substantial parties to complete the road, making a direct connection with the mineral fields of the State of Alabama and the trunk lines of the north. For this construction there will be issued: First mortgage bonds. $15,000 per mile; income bonds, |15,000 per mile; stocK, $20,000 per mile. The railroad will soon be sold under foreclosure. To save such disastrous result it is therefore important to the interests of all holders of each class of securities and indebtedness to immediately unite under this plan for their mutual advantage and protection. Holders of securities and creditors must deJosit their securities and debts under this plan on or before aly 1st, 1881, or the railroad will be sold under the foreclosure proceedings now pending. In the event that at least 90 per cent of bonds, stock and debts are not deposited with the Farmers' Loan and Trust Company on or before July 1st, 1881, the bonds, stock and debts then deposited can unite in the purchase of the property at said foreclosure sale for their own The benefit. New York Lackawanna & Western.— A $12,000,000, forty- 637 sent to Paris for ratification, and the members of the American committee were unwilling to make public it« terms. The Times says: "The general terms, according to a Htatament made by Mr. Park yesterday, were that Mr. Park and his associates were to receive $250 per share for the stock held by them, the cash in the trea.sury and all bills receivable to be retained in the interest of the shareholders. The assets thus excepted amounted to about 45 per cent of the capital stock, 80 that the actual price demanded was $295 per share. The amount was to be paid by the canal cc>mpany in six instalments, as follows: $4,000,000 on July 1, when the arrangement was to fake effect, and the rest in five annaal sums, each drawing interest at 6 per cent from the dat« of the ratification of tne agreement ana the payment of the first $4,000,000. But the canal company reserves the privilege of paying the whole amount at any date within eighteen montliM after July 1, or before January 1, 1883, providea three months' notice of such intention shall be given in advance. But unless this provision is carried into effect within the period specified, the payments are to be made annually, and until the last payment is made the present stockholders of the railroad are to retain control of the board of directors by an acting majority. By this arrangement, at the expiration of five years the canal company, by acquiring a majority of the stock, wlH enter into possession of the road. Mr. Park said yesterday that he had felt bound to protect other shareholders than those associated with hira, and had consequently stipulated that any holder of shares should receive the same amount per share that he and his associates received, by signifying his intention to sell within three months after July 1, 1881, and notices to that effect would of course be transmitted to all such persons. But in case of failure to receive such notice, any stockholder might take advantage of the terras of any date within the five years specified, by making oath that no such notice had been received by him until after the expiration of the three months named in the contract. The bonded debt of the company ($:3,989,000), secured by mortgage on the road, and $1,000,000 of iildebtedness, secured by the steamboat property belonging to the corporation, are not to be affected by the sale."

The Liverpool market was clo.sed during the first three days for the Whitsuntide holidays. Saturday was easier, and Monday very, very dull, but stiffened up at the close, and Tuesday made an important advance. A considerable "short "interest" became sufHciently anxious to enter upon active buying to cover contracts; but as this demand subsided, prices weakened; and on Wednesday, though Liverpool opened firmer, there was a decline with us of 11@15 point.s, closing, however, at some recovery. Thursday, the market was variable and unsettled; opening firmer in i-esponse to Liverpool, then declining, and finally closing irregular, this crop and September being slightly lower, and the next crop dearer, on reports of unsettled weather again in the Southwest. To-day the reports of the Southern Exchanges caused an advance of 9(^11 points, but this was partly lost at the close. Cotton on the spot has been quiet. There were no changes in quotations down to the close of ye.sterday's business. To-day there was a disposition to hold for higher prices, and there was more doing; but middling uplands closed at 11 1-lCo. 10.

The following table is prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are sometimes misleading, as they are made up more largely one year than another, at the expen.se of the interior stocks. We reach, therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement like the following. In reply to freq^uent inquiries we will add that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the weekly movement from the plantatioas of that part of the crop which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

M, June 10, 1881. low grades of flour, through an increase in supplies and a falling off in the demand, which was noticed in our last, has continued throughout the week under review, while the medium and better grades, though less active, have ruled comparatively firm. The changes in prices of low grades has not been very marked, but the tendency has been in favor of buyers. Eye flour has also shown a downward tendency. To-day the market was quiet, the storm checking trade; but The depression in variable and unsettled, and yet have not been wide. Complainta of drought in winter wheat sections have been followed bj^ reports of excessive rains. The upper Ohio and its tributaries have been visited this week by violent storms, which are believed to have done much injury to wheat nearly ready for harvesting. To-day the market improved on these accounta, and No. 2 red winter sold at .?1@$1 2o}^ for July; No. 2 Chicago spring on the spot sold at |I19;!6@?1 20. Indian corn has been steadier, but the improvement is not important. There have been no very active influences at work yet there is a better feeling, and to promote an advance to-day No. 2 mixed sold at 56c. for July. The demand for white com has materially fallen off, and it no longer brings the extreme prices of last week. Yellow com is scarce and nominal. There has been nothing in the weather of the past week to ; affect the yield of the next crop, except that needed rains have fallen on the Atlantic coast. Rye has been quiet, and prices are nominally without important variation. Barley is entirely nominal, and the materially strikes in the breweries limit business in barley malt. Oats have advanced, but to-day were quiet ; No 2 graded on the spot were quoted at 48^c. for white and 47?4c. for mixed and No. 2 mixed were quoted at 46e. for July.

Overcoatings were in light demand, but leading makes are well sold up, and prices remain steady. Cloakings have received a fair share of attention, but the demand was irregular. Kentucky jeans were in better request (with most relative activity in low and medium grades), and there were moderate dealings in satinets. Worsted dress goods ruled quiet, and there was little inquiry for shawls or skirts; but shirts and drawers, fancy hosiery and knit woolens, were more freely taken by local and interior jobbers. FoBEiQN Dey Goods have been quiet with importers as usual between seasons but a fair distribution of assorted fabrics was made by jobbers, and prices of the most staple goods are gen- — — erally steady. Importations of Drr Goods. The importations of dry goods at this port for the week ending June 9, 1881 and since January 1, and the same facts for the corresponding periods of 1880, are as follows: e las?

There was a liberal movement in staple cotton goods on account of back orders, and clothing woolens were distributed in like manner to an importamount. Agents representing leading makes of anl; aggMg»i^ cotton goods also booked a good many orders for the most staple fabrics, for future delivery, but the current demand for clothing woolens was not very brisk. There was a freer demand to the fall trade, as the for some descriptions of goods adapted (fr- O to K) CO 3i * en CO to CO to OIJO oco Fbidat, p. M., June 10, 1881. — b: 5 g: •o; THE DRY GOODS TRADE. The demand which there was an increased business in wool flanshirts and drawers, Kentucky jeans and other heavy fabrics but dress goods, light prints, lawns and other spring and summer goods were mostly quiet in first hands, as usual at this stage of the season. The jobbing trade was of fair average proportions, the order demand having been better than at the corresponding time of last year. Domestic Cotton Goods. The exports of domestics froin this port during the week ending June 7 aggregated 2,462 packages, of which 1,880 were shipped to China, 315 to United States of Colombia, 130 to Great Britain, and the remainder in relatively small parcels to other markets. There was a strong and fairlyactive market for most kinds of plain and colored cottons, but stocks in first hands are so uniformly light that business was largely restricted to recording orders for goods to be made. Cotton flannels were in exceptionally good demand, and although the usual season for their distribution has not yet arrived, many leading makes are already under the control of orders. Print cloths were quieter than of late, but prices were steadily maintained at 4c. for 64x64s and 3 9-16c. for 56i60s. Prints, lawns and piques were dull in agents' hands, but fair sales were reported by jobbers, and ginghams were in steady request by package buyers and retailers. Domestic Woolen Goods. The main feature of the woolen goods market was a brisk demand for wool flannels, in which a satisfactory business was done by manufacturers' agents at prices somevriiat below last year's quotations. There was only a moderate inquiry for fancy cassimeres and worsted coatings, result of nels, hosiery, : 1881. 3,779,290 VbU. Ftour same ports from Dec. 27 XXXIl. [Vol,.
