1870 Parliament declared the debt to be redeemable at
par at the pleasure of the Government. Since then consols have risen to a premium, and have remained steadily
above par for a long time. This seems to be an opportune time, then, for an attempt to reduce the interest on
the whole debt, and that is what Mr. Childers proposes by
the government bill now pending in Parliament.

In the wheat trade, there has been continued dulness, the
accounts which have been received from all parts of Europe
having been of a decidedly favorable character. At the present time a somewhat early harvest is looked forward to, and,
as is usual in dry seasons, an excellent quality of produce is
expected. The arrivals of wheat into the United Kingdom
this week have been rather limited, and the result has been
that the quantity afloat has been somewhat augmented. The
supplies actually or almost immediately available are still fully
adequate to our requirements in fact, they exceed them. The
only policy, therefore, for millers to adopt is to buy from hand
to mouth, and to keep their working stocks at a full working
point a course which, it is understood, they have pursued for
many months \ ast. Only a very quiet trade for wheat can>
therefore, be anticipated as long as the weather remains fine

A
feature in the trade just now is that the Continent, or
rather the Western part of it, including Germany, is a large
buyer of foreign wheat. The Baltic ports have, for some time
past, been re-opened to navigation, and rather considerable
shipments of wheat are being made from St. Petersburg. Ac
cording to the last weekly return 84,348 chetwerts were sent to
the United Kingdom (direct ports), and 35,188 chetwerts fo'
orders, but to the Continent they were as much as 126,984 chet
werts. The cause of the movement is obvious. The agricultural se.Tson on the Continent, more especially in the Southern
districts, is more advanced than it is in the North and in thia

—The attention of Chronicle readers, and particularly of
parties having money to invest, is directed to the advertisement of real estate mortgages on Western farm property negotiated by Messrs. Jarvis, Conklin
Co., of Kansas City, Mo.
This firm, located at one of the principal cities west of the
Mississippi River, has had some years experience iu tliis class
of business, and has invested large amounts of money for
parties at the East, as they state, without the loss of a single
dollar to their customers.
Among otlier parties for
they have plac-ed money is the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance

anything more definite, and though the directory of the road
is "known to be inharmonious, the only outcome of tliat has
been the resignation of President Rogers and the election of
Mr. M. H. Smith (formerly Vice-President) in his stead.
The New York money market has continued dull. The
decline in railway stocks and bonds has caused all money lenders to adopt an extremely conservative policy, and yet on satisfactory collaterals, money has been very cheap. Call loans
on such collaterals have ranged at 1}^ to 4 per cent per annum.
Time loans on dividend stocks have been offered for four and
six months at 6 per cent i^er annum. Mercantile discounts
have remained dull and unchanged at 5>^ and 6 per cent for
and 6>^ on
two and four months on endorsed paper and

The last statement of the averages of the New York banks
loans
in
the
of
$7,040,300
showed the large contraction
and the decrease of $5,038,100 in the deposits. The contraction
of loans was undoubtedly made in pursuance of the great desii-e of the banks to cancel their Clearing House certificates.
The total amount of these in actual use on Friday the 13th by
the New York banks was about $1 1 ,000,000. Be sides these tliere
were also a little less than $6,000,000 more which had been taken
out by banks but never used, thus making a total of about
$17,0(X),000 still in existence, and showing that the banks have
returned |T,000,000 of the $34,000,000 originally issued.
The weekly statement of the Bank of England on Thursday
exhibited the large gain of £1,400,000 in bullion. The percentage of reserve was increased to 40Js per cent, from 46?^ per
cent last week. The Bank rate of discount remained unchanged at 3J^ per cent. The weekly statement of the Ban
of France showed a loss of 717,000 francs in gold and
1,517,000 francs in silver. The report of the Bank of Germany
showed a gain of 743,000 marks.

State and Railroad Bonds.— The volume of business in
railroad bonds during the last week has been very irregular.
This irregularity was presumably due to the uncertainty of
dealers and investors as to the probable course of the market.
The general tendency of prices has been towards lower figures,
and the declines in some cases are very large. The various
defaults on interest during the liist few weeks, together with
the low rates of freights and diminished net earnings of some
leading railroads, have had a depressing effect upon all railroad
bonds, but more especially on those of tlie non-dividend paying properties. The mast important fluctuations have been

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The slock market
was depressed during aU the early part of the week, prices
showing a decline each day from Monday until AVednesday
evening. The only special feature was the appointment of
receivers for the West Shore road, but outside of this was the
general influence of the various defaults on interest and the
decrea.se in net earning by many roads, which affected the
stock mai-ket in the same way as these facts affected the prices

a recovery in all prices and the declines of the early part of the

Friday than a week previous, viz.: Missouri Pacific, 7^3; New

ANNUAL REPORTS.
New York

year ending Dec. 31, 188:!.)
Mr. Abrani S. Hewitt, Resident of tliis company, says in liis
" The revenue received from all sources amounted to
report
|ili2.9C8, showing a fallmg off from tlie receipts of the previous year of $2,iyi. The cost of maintaining and operating
the road, exclusive of taxes and interest, but inclucling the
&,
:
operating the Watchung Branch, a-nounted to 1^173,703,
being an increase in the expenses of $18,074. The amount of
interest on floating debt wa.s f 11,980.
The practical result,
therelore. of the year's business ia that the deficit on tlie 31st
of December, 188:3, amounting to .•?l'")2,93tj, has been increased
to ^184,711, the latter being the amount of delicit on the 31st
of December, 1883. This sum has been advanced to the company three-fourtlis by the New York Lake Erie
Western
Railroad Company and one-fourth by Coojier
Hewitt anfl is
secureti Ijy an assignment of the tax liens and of tlie liens for
wages advanced for ojierating the road." » » *
"It will
be oljserved tliat tlie i arnings of the business just about sufficed
for tl»e payment of the current expen-ses, and that the increiuse
in tlie deficit is practically the interest charge upon the floating
debt. But £0 far as the ojteration of the road is concerned, tlie
maintenance of way in 1883 exceeded the exiienditures of 1883
by ?11,6.')4. This lulditional expenditure is represented by an
increased mileage of steel rails, and of otiier improvements in
permanent way. During the present year the steel track will
be completed to Little Falls, or rather more than (mc-half the
total length of the road.
That the earnings do not increase is
due chiefly to the depression in the iron business, and to the
smaller receipts from the transportation of ice, which last year
was sold at a very low price." « » » " The Legislature of
New Jereey, at its last session, enacted a new tax law, iinder
the operations of which it is hoped that this company ma/ te
relieved from the burden of taxation, which, from the beginning, has weighed it down."

continue to discourse on bo long as the railroad companies with
stocks listed at the Stock Exchange decline to publish monthly
or quarterly reports of their gross and net earnings. The
Tribune says of the Delaware Lackawanna & Western:

that pursuant to the terms of the lease
there w;us expended by the plaitititfi about $10,668,413 that it
was also agreed tliat there should be issued sijecial stock called
the guaranteed special stock of tlie .Pittsburg Fort Wayne
Cliicago Railroad Company, which was to be issued to the lessees at par to the full amount of the expenditures made for
the improvements. The defendants, until the summer of
1881, approved the statements and requisitions for improvements and additions and issued to the Pennsylvania Railroad
the special stock." In the Bummerof 1881 the directors, without authority from the stockholders, refused to issue more of
the "guaranteed special stock." The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company in 1882, 1883 and the first four months of 1884 expended an aggregate of $1,018,192, and therefore demands the
issue of guaranteed special stock to the amount of $3,344,748.
The Court was asked to compel the defendants to issue at once
the guaranteed special stock to the amount of $1,26 j,.'55.'^, which
represents the balance of expenditures for work done, and that
a master be appointed to decide the matter.
From this bill it would appear that the efforts to compromise
and settle tlie differences between the Fort Wayne and Pennsylvania raih-oad companies, for which several meetings have
been held, were futile. The reason that the Fort Wayne people refused to issue tlie stock demanded was that it promised
soon t) excet?d the amount of the original stock and thus to
give the lessees entire control of the road which they virtually

to pay tlie coupons of the consolidated loan of tlie company was
only binding for thirty days, and a portion of the receivers'
certificates will be put aside for that purpose.

As to the exaggerated reports about the company's indebtedness to the GoverHuient, Mr. Dillon says that the matters in
controversy will be adjudicated this fall, when it will te shown
that the Government is debtor to the company. Mr. F. L.
Ames states that the U. P. floating debt, as reported to Congress,
is made up without taking into account the proper offsets, such
as cash on hand, bills and accounts receivable, securities oiher
than investments, materials on hand, etc. The debt on March
31, the date to which the Government examination e.xtended,
was, allowing for offsets, about $3,500,000, instead of the gross
figures represented.
The number of acres of land sold on the Nebraska division
from January 1 to June 1 was 1,617,024, and the amount
received was !?3,3(i9,250. On the Kansas division the sales

and 8 per cent sinking funds.
Wabash St. Louis & Paciflc. At St. Louis, Mo., an application h.as been filed in the United States Circuit Court by the
receivers of this Railroad, setting forth the approximste

of receivers' certificates it would authorize them to issue. The

In naval stores, while there has been some speculative
movement in both rosins and spirits turpentine, the legitimate
outlet haa been quite indifferent, and to-day the former shows
weakness at $1 35@$1 321^ for strained to good strained, the
latter being quoted at 303^@30?^c. in yard. Refined petroleum
has dropped from 8J|^c. to 8o. for 70 Abel test, and the sales
for the week aggregate 125,000 bbls. at 8)^@8c.; cases have
declined to 8V^c. for cargoes, and have had a fair movement
to Japan, Calcutta and the Mediterranean. Crude oil certificates have gone by the board very rapidly, and yesterday
69c. was reached.
To-day there was an early improvement
to 73c., which was quickly lost, and 70j4c. was quoted; the
final figures were Tl}4c.
Of metals, oils, hops and wool nothing new can be mentioned, prices in many instances being
quite nominal.
In ocean freight-room the movement either in cereal*, provisions or in general merchandise has been quite moderate,
and yet, looking over the week, it will be noticed that, as a
ule, rates have remained about steady. The same remarks will

Monday, the report of the National Cotton Exchange appeared
and there was a return of good weather in the Southwest, under which there were sales to realize, causing a downward tendency to the close of Tuesday's business. On Wednesday, the
report of the Agricultural Bureau appeared, atid being regsu-ded as more favorable than had been expected, caused a
continuance of the selling movement.
On Thursday, there
was a steadier market till near the close, when selling orders
from New Orleans, growing out of a failure in that market,
caused a further decline of a few points. To-day there was
very little change, and the close was quiet. As compared with
last Friday, June is 4 points lower; the other months 9@ 13
points lower. Cotton on the spot was advanced 1-lCc. on Saturday, and remained without change to the close of yesterterday's business. The demand has been fair for export, but
business for home consumption was quite moderate. To-day,

Receipts prom the Plantations.—The following table isprepared 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 expense of the interior stocks. We reach,
therefore, a safer conclusion tlu-ough a compai-ative statement
like the following.
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figm-es, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are siuiply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which filially reaches the market tlu-ough the outports.

Report of the N.\tional Cotton Exchange on the
ACRE-AGE AND CONDITION OF COTTO.v.— The National Cotton
Exchange issued on June 9th its first report on the cotton crop
under the jilan adopted at the convention at Point Comfort.
report is summarized as follows:
.
Taking a general view of the present season, within tlie cotton belt,
it will be found from our returns that in all that seciimi ea-'t of meridian
la- west from Washington, which passes near New Orleunn and Jackson, Miss., an arcu of 10,765,000 acres, ;ui<l cmbraiiug Virginia, NortU
Carolina. Hnutli Carolina, Gcorgin, Florida, Abibamn, Tenm'..>*spe, and a
large part of the bottom l.inds of Ml«.si.-^sippi. tlie early sprmg, tfiough
wet and co:d, was followed b.v a dr.v May. with a range of tlie tlictmometer which, though quite unfavorable, was liiKliev than last year.
Though the planting was late, prettj' good stands wore obtained, the
fields were well cultivated in May and are conioarativcly free from
grass, and the lainls are mellow. Tiuiely rains would go far to conipenBate tor the lateness of the planting. This area, tluiugli embracing
about 61 per cent of the cotton aoicage of the South, produced only
about 53 per cent of the crop in lS8'-'-3.
West of this line of longitude, embracing the bottom lauds of Migsissippi. all -Vrkausas, Louisiana and Texas, an area of 6,013,000 acres,
The
•'
proilucing 17 per cent of the crop in 1SS3-3, the season lias been extn-mulv unfavorable. The rainfall throughout the spring' lias been ex
cessivo, rctiirding planliug from two to four weeks, iii.jurius the stands,
luoventing farm work, overflowing thii bottoms, wa.sliing up the young
plains that had come up. and seitiug the fields in grass. Tli'j worst
conditions, have prevsiilefl in Texas— replanting lias been rusjrtod to
largely, init in the latter-named .State the flooding rains of Juue 2 and
4 have ilii'own bade work, so that seeding is still going on. The general condition of this area is, tlicrefoi'o, very uutavorablo, Arkansas
prc.si'iiiiug the best chances for an average crop.
Taking ilie whole belt together, we find there has been no Increase In
acroiige. with the condition of the crop on May 31 no better than last
year, which was lower than for several years. L ilior is ploatiful, and
no compla uls are heard in relation thereto."

Agricultural Dep.vrtment's Report on Acre.vge, ^The
Agricultural Department at Wa-shington issued on the 10th

BREADSTUFFS.
Fbidat, p. M Juno 13, 1S84.
has sold very slowly, and has remained more or less
depressed in value.
The supply is large, considering the
smallness of the trade. To-day the market was dull and
weak for all descriptions. There is a lack of new or interest,
Wheat some days ago sold freely for export, the business
being largely in the spring cereal, but latterly the foreign
transactions have at the best reached only a fair aggregate.
The speculation has not been active, bulls sliowing no inclination to materially increase their holdings, and bears being
timid about putting out any large lines of shorts. Prices for
red wheat have declined. Tlie oallook toe the crop is favorable, not only in the Uuitcd SiJies, bat in most of the other
producing coontvies of tlie wo'ld. The re eiptT at Chicago
are incresslug, pnd new Soiiihein whe?t is already being marketed. It is said that harvesting will begin next week in the
region of Kansas City, and that even in the far Northwest the
outlook for the crop of spring wheat is exceptionally favorable. The favorable report in regard to the condition of the crop
by the Agricultural Bureau at Washington, in conjunction
with the other depressing influences, is said to be turning many
former advocates of high prices at the West into operators on
the short side of the market. To-day there was a moderate
business here at a decline in red wheat of ^^ to J-^c. No. 2 red
sold at |1 OiPa delivered, OOOOD'i'c. for June, $1 OO^gOU OII4
for July and fl 025^@,$1 03)^ for August
Spring wheat was
steady at 90c. for No. 3 and 96@97c. for No. 2; ungraded sold
No. 3 red closed at $1 OIJ2 (delivered, 99c.
at as low as 75c.
for June, $1 OOJg for July, |1 O'ZJi for August and $1 04} 3 for
September, showing- a decline of 2c. during the week. There
was some covering by the shorts this afternoon, and the close
was steady owing to this fact.
Indian corn has been quiet on speculation, though at times
fairly active for export.
Prices have followed the wheat
market downward. The slight decrease in the visible supply
at the West is disappointing to the bulls, while the large res
ceipts at Chicago, and the comparatively light shipmenteastward, have afforded the opposite party arguments for
lower prices. The favorable crop prospects, and some depression in the foreign markets, have likewise been dwelt upon.
To- day the market here was irregular, corn on the spot being a
fraction lower, while options advancsd slightly.
The supply
of contract corn in Chicago is not excessive. No. 2 mixed
closed at 63:''^c. delivered, 63c. for June, 63J.^o. for July,
G3^s^. for August and 647aC. for September, showing a decline
for the week of 3^c. in June and IcaU^c. in tiie later options.
Rye has been moderately active at firmer prices. Oats have
sold slowly at declining prices. A larg-e crop is expected this
year.
To-day No. 3 mixed sold at 37^8 c. for June, 373^c, for
July and S.JigQS.^l-^c. for August.

dry goods trade. The demand at firat
hands continued light and irregular, neither jobbers nor the
manufacturing trade having shown the least dispoaition to
eral condition of the
anticipate future wants. Business in jobbing circles was
spasmodic, moderately active days having been followed by
exceptionally quiet ones, owing to unfavorable weather at
times. The main feature of the week was a peremptory
auction sale of nearly 3,000 pieces fine 6-4 woolens and worsteds,
the balance of production to date of the Consholiocken Woolen
Mills, the Conshohocken Worsted .Mills and the Norristown
Woolen Mills. The goods were of a popular character and the
terms of sale (six months' credit) were liberal. There was ct nsequently a large attendance of the clothing trade and cloth
jobbers, and the entire offering was ((uickly disposed of.
The
best standard goods, 8uch as diagonals, tricots, &c., brought
good average prices, but some lines of worsteds (not strictly
desirable) sold low. As a whole, however, the sale was a
marked success, taking into consideration the preaent ooodition
of the market and the apathy lately manifested by buyers.
Another large public sale of woolens (18,000 pieces) will be
beld next week, and its results are awaited with much interest.
Domestic Cotton Goods. The exports of domestics for the
week were 3,773 packages, including 1,620 to Creat Britain.

hands, but distributers are poorly supplied as a rule, judging
by the constant re-order demands for small assorted lots. Print
cloths were dull and nominal at 3%c. for 64x64s and 8^c. for
56i60s, and prints ruled very quiet; but lawns and woven
wash fabrics were taken in small lots to a fair amount.
Domestic Woolen Goods. As above noted, the event of
the week was a large auction sale of fine woolens and
worsteds. The sale brought into the marset a large number
of out-of-town clothiers, but their presence caused no material improvement in the demand for men's-wear woolens at
private hands, the business of the week having been light and
disappointing. Kentucky jeans were in moderate requfst,
but satinets have become quiet, and there was only a limited
movement in Jersey cloths and stockinettes. Flannels and
blankets have met with rather more attention from intending
buyers, but purchases have thus far been restricted to a few
