Bank of Bengal, however, redaoed its rate of dis­
count from 5 per cent to 4 per cent. Hon. Edwin H.
Conger, the United States Minister at Pekin, has an­
nounced in a cable to the State Department that the
representatives of the Powers have reaohed an agree­
ment on the basis of Secretary Hay's proposition,
which was that this Government would reduce its in­
demnity claims against China from $25,000,000 to
$24,000,000 if most of the other Powers would reduce
their Bhares proportionately. The total reduction will
be about $10,000,000, thus making the total indem­
nity to be paid by China $433,000,000. There re­
mains to be settled, however, the important question
of the demand of some of the Powers that the indem­
nity be paid on the basis of exchange at the present
time instead of that on the date of the signature of
the treaty. The Chinese Government contends that
the indemnity payments are to be made on the latter
basis, and in this contention the United States Gov­
ernment joins. Owing to the depreciation in the
value of silver since the treaty was signed, if the de­
mand of the other Powers should be sustained, the in­
demnity payment would be increased by about
$70,000,000.
The statement of the New York Associated Banks
last week showed comparatively unimportant changes.
The reduction in cash reserve was $1,250,900. Loans
were decreased $1,325,700 and deposits were $2,429,900 lower. The reserve requirements were reduced
$607,475; this sum deducted from the $1,250,900 loss

The foreign exchange market has been generally
firm this week, with fluctuations within a remarkably
narrow range. The changes have been so slight as
not to be quotable by fractions, and even quotations
by decimals show small variation. One feature of
the market, which was observable early in the week,
was tbe offering of Bixty to ninety day bankers5 bills
representing sterling loans. Later there were some
of this class of drafts speculatively sold in the expec­
tation of covering or re-buying in August or Septem­
ber at a profit. These bills were promptly taken and
their offering seemed to make no impression upon the
market, for there was not the least change in rates.
The only indication of activity was in sight sterling.
There appeared to be a good demand for it on Mon­
day for the next day’s mail, but when this inquiry was
satisfied, the tone grew a shade easier, recovering, how­
ever, on Thursday. Some business was done in cable
transfers, which were firmly held throughout the
week. Bankers reported that there were few com­
mercial bills except futures against grain exports, and
there were not many drafts offered against securities,
and none, so far^ as could be traced, representing
transfers of collateral to tbe European centers. The
Assay Office paid $778,638 32 for domestic bullion.
Gold received at the Custom bouse duriDg the week,
$80,815.
Nominal rates for exchange were 4 85^@4 86 for
sixty-day and 4 88@4 88£ for sight. The market for
actual business opened on Monday unchanged, com­
pared with that at the close of last week, at 4 84
4 85 for long, though decimally stated the rate was
4 8485@4 8490, a decline of five points on the asking
price. Short was also unaltered at 4 87f@4 87-J4 8735@4 8745. Cables were the same as on Friday, at
4 87^@4 88; decimally expressed they were 4 8785@
4 8795, against 4 8790@4 88 on Friday. As above noted,
there were some offerings of long bills on Monday
and again on Tuesday, and an inquiry for short on
the first-named day, but with these exceptions the
market was without feature, and it so continued until
Thursday, there being no change either in fractions
or in quotations decimally expressed. On the abovenamed day, however, short advanced to 4 8740 @
4 8750, fractional quotations remaining at 4 87f@
4 87i, and the tone was firm. The market was steady
on Friday at 4 8490@4 85 for long, 4 8740@4 8750
for short and 4 8790@4 88 for cables. The following

The address which Mr. Jam es'J. Hill of the Great
Northern Railway Company delivered in Chicago on
Wednesday of last week at the dinner of the Illinois
Manufacturers’ Association has attracted a good deal
of attention, and deservedly so. The address is full
of interesting thoughts and suggestions. Moreover,
Mr. Hill shows a clear insight into the conditions
which have raised this country to its present promi­
nence and prosperity, and which must govern its future
growth and advancement. He possesses the faculty
of lucid statement, and by means of facts and figures
is able to bring these governing conditions into view
in such a way as to make their bearing and effect ob­
vious even to the minds of those who have not made
a study of the subject.
A large portion of the address was necessarily de­
voted to showing the part played by our railroad
transportation interests in promoting the Industrial
progress of the United States, for these arteries of
commerce lie at the basis of our national achieve­
ments. In discussing railroad matters, Mr. Hill is
dealing of course with a branch of human endeavor of
which he is master. B at he has no narrow concep­
tions. His horizon is an extensive one, and he takes
large and broad views of things. Mr. Hill makes a
statement which no one can controvert when he
says that next to certain fundamental things which
he mentions (such as religion and common

LVOL. LXXIV.

schools) no other single work enters into the wel­
fare and happiness of the people of the whole
country to the same extent as the railway; no other
work could have made it possible to occupy the enor­
mous stretches through the interior of our country,
and people them with cities, towns and villages. His
other statement also cannot be controverted, namely
that while mistakes of j udgment or of intent may
have been made in the management of the railroads,
the result on the whole has been to create the most
effective, useful and by far the cheapest system of
land transportation in the world.
He gives figures to illustate the truth of this latter
declaration. In England the average amount paid by
the shipper for moving a ton of freight 100 miles is
$2 35; in France, $2 10; in Austria, $1 90; in Ger­
many, where most of the railways are owned and
operated by the Government, $1 84; in Russia, where
there is also Governmental ownership and where the
shipments are carried under conditions more similar
to our own than in any other country as respects long
haul, $L 70. On the other hand, in the United States
the average charge paid by the shipper is only 73
cents or less than 40 per cent of the average cost in
Europe. This difference in favor of the American
shipper is the more noteworthy as every article used
by the railroads, including labor, costs mure in this
country than it costs in Europe, with the exception
of coal and right of way. Wages in the United
States are as a rule more than twice as high. F ur­
thermore, the cost of the things used by the railroads
is constantly rising. Mr. Hill takes as an instance
the material in an ordinary box-car, the cost of which
has increased in the past three years over 20 per cent.
The manufacturer, when the cost of production is in­
creasing, is able to find compensation by raising the
selling price of his wares; not so the railroad, rates of
transportation in the United States having gone
steadily down from year to year. The latest report of
the later-State Commerce Commission shows that in
the fiscal year ending Jane 30 1900 the average rate
received per ton per mile by the railroads of the
United States was only 729 thousandths of a cent, as
against 9 ll thousandths ten years before in 1890.
Mr. Hill’s analysis naturally brings him to a con­
sideration of the proposition of Government control
of the railroads. The great reduction in transpor­
tation rates just noted has been brought about en­
tirely by the railways themselves in the effort to serve
the public and promote their own interests—not by
legislation or Government interference. It is now
seriously proposed to hand these large transportation
interests over to Government control. Two proposi­
tions are suggested—Government ownership or an in ­
crease in the power of the Inter-State Commerce
Commission. Mr. Hill is equally emphatic in his
condemnation of both propositions. Th6 reader has
doubtless noticed that every now and then covert in­
sinuations appear in the newspapers hinting that the
great railroad combinations which have been the feat­
ure of the last two or three years are preliminary to a
movement in favor of Government ownership—that
the syndicates behind these combinations, while osten­
sibly opposed to Government ownership, are secretly
in favor of it, hoping thereby to dispose of the prop­
erties to the Government at a high price. If any one
has been inclined to credit these statements, Mr.
Hill’s remarks will certainly servo to disabuse the
mind. For while Mr. Hill has been very active in

J une 14, 1902.]

THE CHRONICLE

railroad consolidation work, he Beta out the dangers
of Government ownership in suoh trenohant words
that it is difficult to see how any one can be found to
argue in favor of the proposition after reading his
remarks. The mere suggestion of the proposition, as
he well says, arouses in the mind of almost every
thoughtful man the fear that such power would end
in the destruction of the Government itself. Aside
from all economic questions and the increased cost
to the public, either in direct advance of rates or in­
direct cost of increased taxation, it would mean the
political appointment of an additional million of pub­
lic officials and the exercise of a power sufficient to
imperil, if not to destroy, free Government in the
United States.
As to the other proposition, namely to increase the
power of the Inter-State Commerce Commission,.he
demonstrates that that would be no less dangerous.
He believes that all public service should be regulated
by fair and reasonable laws. Existing statutes furnish
shippers full redress against the railways for any
grievances they may have or for any damage inflicted
upon them. In common with all practical railroad
men of large experience, and with railroad students,
he finds the existing powers of the Inter-State Com­
merce Commission as adequate and ample for the
purpose. Giving the Commission the authority to fix
rates, either in the first instance or the last instance, is
a suggestion which cannot be defended. The only
difference between a commission of five men fixing
the rates on all the railways of the country and &
commission operating under Government owner
ship is a difference in name. In either case the busi­
ness of the country would be face to face with the
worst financial crisis our people have ever been called
upon to meet. “ Because difficulties have arisen in
the enforcement cf the law growing out of failure to
prove its violation, it is proposed to amend the law,
not in such way as to make it less burdensome under
given competitive conditions or to make proof of the
violation of the law less difficult, but by conferring
upon five men, or three, if the five do not agree, the
power to regulate the earnings of railway companies
by fixing rates. This is in effect to give to the Com­
mission, a political body, power to make or break
railway companies, to send their stocks or bonds up
or down in the market, to control importations, to
limit exportations, to build up or ruin cities by estab­
lishing differentials, to array one section against an
o th e r/7
Mr. Hill truthfully says that should the Commission
be given rate-making power, it would have absolute
dominion over the commerce of the country and over
all interests dependent upon such commerce. Com­
pared with the evils which would result from the
granting and exercise of such power, existing evils or
alleged evils would be as nothing. He points out that
it i 3 to the interest of the railroad to build up the
territory tributary to it. The prosperity of the peo*
pie served by the railway is the only path to prosper­
ity for the railway. The railway and its patrons must
always prosper together or suffer together. Moreover,
the greater the volume of business the lower the rates
can be made. If, for instance, a railway has to raise
one million dollars on a traffic of 1,000,000 tons, a
simple calculation shows that its profits must be $1 a
ton; if there are 2,000,000 tons 50 cents a ton; and if
there are 4,000,000 tons 25 cents a ton will bring the
same profit. In order to secure this additional ton­

1223

nage, intelligent railway management is constantly
called upon to secure for the producers on its various
lines a market for their production, and if possible a
return load for the car carrying such product to
market.
Mr. Hill gives an interesting illustration of how
this principle has been observed from the very begin­
ning on his own system of roads, namely the Great
Northern. On that point we cannot do better than to
quote his own words: “ We have on the Pacific Coast
the largest body of first-class saw timber left in the
United States. When I first visited that country,
with a view to extending our lines to the coast, I saw
at once that unless we could carry their lumber to
market at a price that would enable them to manu­
facture and ship it with a profit, our railroad would
have no business. The first and great crop of that
country is its lumber. We made a rate of 40 cents a
hundred for 2,000 miles, or four mills a ton per mile,
on this lumber, in order that we might load back
the cars that carried out the merchandise to the
West. This rate was necessarily met by other roads,
and the result was the expansion of the lumber trade
of Washington and Oregon, so that to-day it is over
ten times what it was nine years ago, and in place of
seeking additional loads for our cars from the West,
we are now seeking additional loads for our westbound
cars going out to be loaded with lumber for the great
treeless States of the Middle West, and the develop­
ment of this Pacific Coast lumber traffic will work a
greater change in the Oriental trade of the country
than all the efforts of all the men engaged in that
traffic.7
7
In connection with this phase of the matter Mr.
Hill made some announcements that have an immense
bearing on the future commercial expansion of the
United States. He says that it was in order to keep
pace with the enormous demand for the lumber of
the Pacific Coast States that he has built the largest
ships in the world. He then goes on to state that in
that way he hopes to be prepared this fall to meet not
only the rates of other trans-continental lines, both in
the United States and in Canada, but the rates made
by Bteamer from the Atlantic ports via the Suez
Canal. In other words, every manufacturer reached
by any railway in the United States will be able to
ship his goods, Mr. Hill says, to the Orient by rail to
the Pacific Coast and thence by steamer at rates that
will compete with water transportation from the
Atlantic seaboard to the East by way of the Medit­
erranean and Suez Canal. “ Ware it not for the cer­
tainty that there is a car load of lumber waiting for
every empty car we can furnish on the Pacific coast
we could not carry the Oriental business at twice the
rates we will offer.7’
He then dwells on the great opportunities there are
for developing our commerce with the East. Twenty
years ago the foreign trade of Japan was not to exceed
I I per capita of the population; to-day this trade is
equal to 16 or 17 per capita of its population. In 1890
the entire foreign trade with China amounted to about
90 cents per capita. With a good stable government
which will protect the Chinaman iu the fruits of his
own labor and enterprise, there is no reason, Mr. Hill
thinks, why the Chinese trade should not increase as
rapidly as that of Japan has increased. The China­
man he considers the better merchant of the two.
Should the Chinese trade increase to three or four
dollars per capita, it would amount to more than the

TH E

entire exports of the United States, and surely this
trade is worth striving for. With Manila as an
American port in the East, and the best ships that oan
be built, we should be able to maintain ourselves as a
nation in the control of a large share of this traffic of
the Orient.
The address also contains some pertinent observa­
tions on the need of combinations of capital in carry­
ing on the enormous undertakings so essential in a
country as large as ours. But that is a matter we
need not touch upon on the present occasion.

St. P et e usBUitOr, R ussia, May 22, 1902.
The dosing quarter of the last year has witnessed
an event which will remain memorable in the annals
of Russian history and memorable also in the progress
of human enterprise in general. I refer to the driving
of the last spike to the Great Siberian Railway.
Although this great trunk line, cutting across two
Continents, will hardly be open in its entire length
for freight and passenger service before the fall of
1903, the Russian people can well be congratulated
upon the success of having substantially finished such
a gigantic task. Thus the much cherished plan of
the late lamented Czar Alexander III. has now been
crowned with success, in spite of difficulties which,
in view of the climatic conditions prevailing through
the whole of Siberia, seemed almost insurmountable
to a good many even of the wiser heads.
But the final achievement of this greatest of high­
ways built of steel has been due to that great feature
of the Russian character, the almost fatalistic pa­
tience—a doggednesa “ never to be discouraged."
EXTENT OP THE 11AJ LEO AD.

Connecting at Tscheljabinsk with the railway sys­
tem of European Russia, the Great Siberian Railway
now absorbs and unites what was formerly known as
the Western and Central Siberian systems, and prop­
erly ends at the city of Irkutsk on Lake Baikal, hav­
ing a length of 3,048 werstf on its passage through
Siberia alone.
Its northernmost point is situated at Krassnojarsk
and the most southerly one is at the terminus, i . e . ,
at Irkutsk.
Near the latter place begins the Transbaikal Road
of the Great Siberian System. About 60 werst from
this city the trains are transferred to ferryboats—
such as are common on the Great Lakes of the United
States as well as in New York Harbor—which land
passengers and freight on the eastern border of Lake
Baikal.
Although the Russian Government has spent a great
deal of money to provide the strongest and most per­
fect ice-breakers possible, human ingenuity has had
at times to yield to its stronger adversary—Nature.
The cold has at times been so intense that the trans­
port of freight and passengers has been more expedi­
tious by sleigh across the frozen cover of Lake Bai­
kal.
But in order to cope with all emergencies a short
loop aronnd the Southern border of Lake Baikal is in
course of construction.
At the Station Kaidalowskaja the Transbaikal Sys­
tem of the Great Siberian Railway is split into two
branches; the one leading east to Nertschinsk and

Stretensk, having its terminal on the banks of the
River Schilka, a distance of 1,096 werst from Irkutsk,
on the eastern side of Lake Baikal, remaining all the
time on Russian territory, known as the Northern
part of the Maritime Provinces.
The other branch also stretches in an easterly di­
rection, but further on turns down to the Chinese
border line, which it crosses at a distance of about
325 werst from its starting point, Irkutsk.
On the Russian side we have the station Sibir, and
across the border line, Mandschourla, or Nagadan, as
the Chinese call it.
Prom the latter place the Eastern Chinese Railway,
equipped with American locomotives—from the
Quaker City, I believe—leads its way over Ohailar,
Zizlkar and Charbin (Sungari), 1,440 werst from its
starting point to the station, Pogranitschnaja.
The Eastern Chinese Railway has a second branch
line—with a length of 980 werst—from Charbin to­
wards the Southwest via Mukden to Daljni and Port
Arthur, now the most Southerly port of the Russian
possessions on the Chinese Sea.
The main line of the Ussuri Railway leads from
Wladiwostok, the largest Russian port on the Pacific,
to Chaborowsk on the Amur, having a total length of
721 werst.
Thus the Great Siberian Railway has a total length
of 5,372 werst on Russian territory, and the Eastern
Chinese Branch, with the Southern Mandschouria
Railway, having 2,420 werst on Chinese territory,
which makes a total length of 7,792 werst, distancing
all previous records established by the Pacific trunk
lines crossing the new world.
Or, measured from the most western point on the
European border of the Russian Empire to the eastern­
most point on the Pacific coast, the traveler will have
to cover not less than 9,220 werst of railway to Port
Arthur and 9,877 werst on a stretch to Wladiwostok—
that is, in accordance with the schedules for the ex­
press trains.
This figure well illustrates the vastness of this
Great Northern Empire and this figure may at the
same time indicate—to the uninitiated—what diffi­
culties had to be surmounted before this gigantic task
could he put to a successful end; especially difficult
became the work on the Eastern Chinese and on the
Mandschourian Railway, as these two lines were
hardly finished when the Chinese troubles began.
USEPULXESS AS A MILITARY OE WAE MEASUEE.

It is a good proof for the efficiency of the road that
during the Chinese troubles the Russian Minister of
War was able to direct about 220,000 men over the
Great Siberian Railroad to the theatre of the Boxer
rebellion, although at that time the road was only in
course of construction and part of the troops had to
be transported down the Schilka and Amur rivers on
barges.
The cost of this Transcontinental trunk line is at
present exceeding the figure of 780,000,000 roubles, %
which will be further considerably enhanced by the
construction of the Loop around Lake Baikal, because
the territory in its neighborhood—on account of the
high mountains surrounding the lake—will offer
many technical difficulties to the engineers called
upon to solve this problem.
Another expense in view will probably be the pur­
chase of heavier rails and the latter may be necessary

before the whole system has had a fair chance to
show its earning capacity.
The Siberian Railway is of great importance to the
welfare of the Russian Empire in political, or rather
military respects, chiefly through the fact that Russia
can transport as many troops as she likes in perfect
safety from her Western frontier on the Baltic Sea to
her Eastern outpost on the Pacific Ocean. All this
time the troops would remain upon her own territory,
as at the end of the Nertschinsk and Stretensk Branch,
proper connections are made with steamer lines down
the’rivers Schilka and Amur via Blagowjetschensk to
Ohabarowsk, from where steamers can be had down
the Amur, going straight north to its mouth with
Nikolajewak as port on the Sea of Ochotsk; in a south,
erly direction the Ussuri Railway leaves Chaborowsk,
following upstream the river Ussuri for W ladiwosto^
the great Russian port on the Japanese Sea.

When the various governments of .Western Europe
will next consider mail subsidies, it is quite within the
cards that the fast steamers will have to make their
first surrender to the Fast Siberian Express, i . e . , as
far as mail deliveries to Japan and China—with Hong
Kong as the most southerly point—are concerned.
1 hear that the Japanese are making the most
strenuous efforts to secure for their steamship lines
the carrying of mails from the terminal points of the
Siberian Railway to other ports on the Chinese and
Japanese seas, and even across the Pacific Ocean.
As far as the fast-freight possibilities are concerned,
it is rumored here that Australian papers have been
ventilating the question of establishing a line of
steamers from a port in Queensland, say Brisbane, or
from a point in Northern Australia to Port A rthur; this
trip to require only about 8 days—which line would

ines (on the Pacific) will come into closer touch with
each other; then we must further consider the better
commercial relations and quicker transportation
facilities which will be offered buyers and sellers in
Russia proper and in her Asiatic dependencies.

As soon as this superiority of the Great Siberian
Railway is established, it would be quite natural to
suppose that the passenger traffic must follow.
But here I must put a little damper on the joyful
thoughts of the Russian patriot and of those European
and American tourists who ventured their opinions
upon the subject, and who have made the trip in the
summer-time.
Ju st here is the rub. Through the international
passenger traffic this line will probably profit, only,
however, through the spring, summer and fall; but
as for the six months of winter it will be another
affair altogether.
I t takes a Russian constitution to go through a
winter at the capital, the present one having lasted
not less than 5 months and 28 days; and here at the
capital comfort and luxury are certainly not lacking;
but the long winter in Siberia, with its Arctic night,
will probably not tem pt many travelers outside of
Russia to undertake a trip across the Asian Continent
on the Great Siberian route, with all the risks to
health that would involve, excepting perhaps those
who have direct business in Siberia during the winter
time, such as fur dealers, for instance.
The Ministry of Finance has worked out time-tables
which—provided the limit can be kept up—would
make remarkably good connections.
They are based on an average speed of 50 wersts an
hour—which would not represent an exceedingly nigh
speed—and on this basis the stretch from Moscow to
Port A rthur would not require more than 8£ days,
whereas at present it requires about 20 days.
Such splendid results, however, could only be ob­
tained after the finishing of the loop around Lake Baikal
and the laying of heavier rails wherever necessary.
And then again there will be difficulties in the
w i n t e r t i m e , which an engineer on any other road in
Europe or America has hardly ever to cope with.
In the summer time the schedule could be kept up
with comparative ease; the more we approach the
lands of the midnight sun—those clear nights, when
evening and morning dawn melt into one, would be
extremely favorable to the running of fast trains and
would offer a new sensation to the fastidious globe­
trotter never to be enjoyed anywhere else.
At present there are three weekly express trains,
leaving Moscow for Irkutsk to provide the necessary

In the second place we must view the advantage
which Siberia herself derives from the railway in her
relations as an exporting country—exporting her agri
cultural products to the great consuming centres of
England and Continental Europe as well.
As far as Western Siberia is concerned, her efforts
in placing dairy products, especially butter, on the
principal English markets have been successful, and
it is expected that meat, provisions, timber, lumber
and grain will follow later on in larger volume than
heretofore.

The fact that for the current year the production of
Siberian butter is expected to be about 50 per cent
larger than for the past year must be accepted as a
conclusive proof that the policy pursued by the Rus­
sian Minister of Finance, M. de Witte, has been a
highly beneficial one to the empire at large.
The third and much-contested point amongst the ad­
vantages to be derived from the Great Siberian Railway
is the capacity of the road to carry freight from the Far
East in transit to Western Europe and vice versa.
As soon as the earnings of the Great Siberian Rail­
way will admit the putting on of express trains for
the freight service, I think that there is a good chance
for the road to carry the more valuable freight, such
as silk, tea, etc., which especially suffer somewhat by
the sea voyage and, through their intrinsic value, can
afford to pay a higher freight than steamer rates.
The advantages of rapid transit across two conti
nents are already shown in the far better mailing
facilities; when about two years ago it took almost 50
days for a letter from Wladiwostok to reach the capi­
tal of all the Russias, such letters are delivered in 21
to 23 days, and that even now in the winter time.
The mail from other important places in the far
East has lately required

THE CHRONICLE

transportation facilities for the passenger traffic be­
tween Russia proper and Siberia in both directions;
no special provisions have as yet been made for transit
passengers from Western Europe to the two principal
porta in the Far East, situated on Russian territory,
i. e„, Wladiwoatok and Port A rthur.
The “ train de luxe," however, which leaves Mos­
cow once a week is considered “ up to the m ark" in
every respect, but thus far it can not proceed beyond
Irkutsk.
In order to draw part of the annual passenger traf­
fic away from the steamer lines, say about 50,000 pas­
sengers each way, two express trains a day would be
necessary, with a change of cars at Moscow and I r ­
kutsk for passengers from or to Western Europe.
As soon as the necessary rolling stock can be sup­
plied for the road—which, of course, is a State railway,
being built, managed and owned by the Imperial Gov­
ernment of Russia—the advisability and practicability,
at the proper seasons, of the overland route will im­
press themselves upon all likely passengers on account
of the extremely cheap rates, Russia having the
passenger tariff “ by zones,” «. e . , on a sort of a
wholesale principle, the further you go the lower the
rate per werst (or mile).
I expect to revert to this subject at length in a
special article later on in the season, the subject
having been treated by one of your former Treasury
officials in one of your monthlies towards the end of
last or the beginning of the present year.
As far as the carrying of the mails is concerned, we
run up against the remarkable fact that the treaties be­
tween Russia and her Western neighbors, principally
Germany and Austria, do not provide for any money
consideration in exchange for the carrying of the
mails, i. e., the contracting parties transport all mail
m atter free of charge for each other, which is quite
easy, as the three States enumerated above own all
their principal trunk lines and the charters of all
private lines, which m ight be called upon to carry
mail matters, contain, I believe, a clause which calls
for the free carriage of the mails.
W hether Russia would be willing to carry mails free
which are directed from a foreign country to a foreign
country is a question which will probably be ap­
proached in the future, but at any rate I believe that
the carrying of the mails by the overland route will
not be as costly as th at practiced upon at present by
steamers, which upon the long voyage to China and
Japan make too many stops, on the way out at least.
These are about all the principal tasks which the
Great Siberian Railway will have to face, and as the
Ministry of Communications is subject to the final
control of the Minister of Finance, M. de W itte,
there is no doubt th at the prospects are good ones.
Once the Great Siberian Railway, placed on a sound
footing, its projected parallel line in a more southerly
latitude, the Taschkent-Peking Railway, a continua­
tion of the Central-Asiatic Railway, and th eK jach ta
Peking Railway, connecting the former with the
Great Siberian route, will receive proper considera­
tion by the highest Russian Government circles.
This intention to approach the various sections of
Assia with each other has clearly been set forth
through the projected Orenburg-Taschkent Railway,
to which the first spade has been driven a few months
ago. This line will connect the Russian possessions
and protectorates in Central Asia (Turkestan, Bokha
ra, etc.,) with the sections in the neighborhood on the

Eastern Bide of the Ural Mountains, thus forming a
well designed step towards the development of Sibe­
ria, about which I expect to entertain your readers

IN T E R S T A T E COMMERCE COMMISSION—
IT S POW ER TO M A K E R ATES.
We have received the following answer to Mr. E. P.
Bacon's communication In the C h r o n i c l e of May 31st
on the proposed grant of power to the Inter State
Commerce Committee to make railroad rates. While
not by any means closing the discussion, the communi­
cation contains in definite shape information upon
points touched by Mr. Bacon which is of decided in­
terest in this controversy.
J u n e 3 1902.

The E d ito r o f The Commercial and
N ew Y o rk C i t y :

F inancial Chronicle,

Dear Sir — have read with a great deal of interest the
I
various editorials in the Chronicle upon the proposed
amendments to the Inter-State Commerce Act designed to
confer the rate-making power upon the Commission, and
also Mr. E. P. Bacon’s communication of May 20th last, pub­
lished in your issue of May 31st. Thinking it may possibly
be of interest, if not of assistance, I take the liberty of sub­
mitting some observations on Mr. Bacon’s communication.
Mr. Bacon says that railways are public highways, and
that railway corporations are performing a public service,
which should, therefore, be performed in the same manner
as if done by the Government itself.
This generalization, being incorrect, naturally proves mis­
leading. Neither in this country nor in Great Britain, from
which we derive the principles of our government, has it
ever been regarded as a governmental function—except in
rare and temporary cases—to operate railways or other means
of transportation, It has been deemed a governmental
function to provide ordinary highways, but never to operate
vehicles upon them. Not even the highway has ordinarily
been provided by the government in the case of railways.
The provision of the highways, as well ss the operation of
the conveyances upon it, has been left to private capital and
enterprise.
It would no doubt require an amendment to the Constitu­
tion of the United States before the United States could
operate railways. This is simply another evidence that such
operation is not a purely governmental function.
It is, therefore, unwise to reason from such faulty prem­
ises. The declaration that railway transportation service
must be performed in the same way as if performed by the
Government itself is without foundation, and, moreover,
makes no progress toward a solution of the question. If a
governmental function and performed by the Government,
the|Government would have absolute discretion as to how it
would perform it.
Perhaps the only substantial principle deduced by Mr,
Bacon from the fallacy with whioh he starts out is that rail­
way service must be performed at rates no greater than are
necessary to afford a reasonable return upon the capital
honestly invested iu the property used for the purpose. This is
a very startling proposition. It seems the Government has
never exercised the right, if it has it, to operate the railways.
I know of no reason, therefore, either in law or in morals,
why the Government should prevent the individuals who
choose to invest their money in these enterprises from reali­
zing a return commensurate with the risks incurred and the
energy and skill employed, and from realizing enough in
prosperous years to carry them through years of depression.
I do not understand that Mr. Bacon’s rule makes allowance
for these considerations. A corollary to his proposition
would seem to be tbat if the railroad in performing this
alleged public service shall not realize m ore than a reasonable
return, it shall likewise be guaranteed by the Government a#
least a reasonable return. This feature, however, seems to
be lacking in Mr. Bacon’s plan.
Perhaps the most vital objection is that Mr. Bacon is deal­
ing in a purely theoretical way with an essentially practical
subject. By the application of false theories he arrives at an
unjust and unworkable rule. Owing to the infinite compli­
cations of modern railway transportation, it is utterly in\

J une 14, 1902.J

THE

possible to estim ate the cost of perform ing any given service
or to estim ate in advance the cost of perform ing the aggre­
gate service rendered by a railw ay company. Hence, the
proposition th a t rates should be fixed on the basis of cost of
service, plus a reasonable profit, is w holly im practicable.
Moreover, no shipper’s satisfaction or dissatisfaction with
the rate charged him has any relation w hatever to the aggre­
gate income or profits of th e company, and it can have no
relation to the profits upon the p articu lar service performed
for him , because those profits cannot be ascertained.
Mr. Bacon is likewise purely theoretical in his a rb itrary
assumption th a t rates are paid by consumers except in case
of agiicultu ral products, where they are paid by producers,
and th a t they are not paid by the middle men. The obvious
tru th is th a t the distribution of both the cost and the profits
of industrial and m ercantile activity is affected by so many
factors th a t it is impossible to lay down any rule on th e sub­
ject. I understand th a t several years ago the rates on m ilk
from a considerable section to New York City w ere very
m aterially reduced, b u t th a t th ereafter the dairym en got no
more for their m ilk and the consumers paid no less th a n be­
fore, i . e., the m iddle men absorbed the reduction.
Mr. Bacon simply adds confusion to the discussion by saying
th a t the rate-m aking power is in effect a tax-levying power.
A railroad rate is not a tax , differs from a tax in many more
ways th an it resembles a tax, and cannot possibly be regu­
lated according to principles of taxation.
The simple, practical tru th , fully recognized by th e railroad
companies, is th a t the railw ay business is a business affected
w ith a public use ju s t as is a warehouse business, and is there­
fore subject to governm ental regulation to prevent UDjust
discrim inations and extortions, and the question of course is
w hat evils exist in these respects and w hat are reasonable and
proper m ethod of rem edying them . I am not aw are th at
any of the argum ents by Mr. Bacon, or any of those co-oper­
ating w ith him can be reduced to this practical plane.
Mr. Bacon’s im plication th a t th e Inter-S tate Commerce
Commission was designed as a trib u n al for affording sum ­
m ary relief is a t variance w ith the report of the Senate
Select Committee of 1888, from w hich he quotes, as th a t
report distinctly indicates th a t the Commission was sim ply
designed as an auxiliary trib u n al to aid the shippers and to
aid the courts, and was not intended to have any independent
power w hatever or to do anything more th an obtain in for­
m ation and set in motion the processes of the courts. T hat
report shows, moreover, in the plainest possible way, th a t
the Commission was not designed to have any rate m aking
power.
Mr. Bacon in effect alleges th a t tb e power of the Commission
to m ake rates was not questioned un til 1897,when the Supreme
Court decided th a t the Commission did not have th a t power.
In 1887 the Commission itself announced th a t it had no power
to fix rates generally. In 1889 and 1890 Judge Jackson, hold­
ing the U nited States C ircuit Court, indicated th a t the InterState Commerce A ct did not contem plate the m aking of
rates. In 1891 the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company denied
in court the Commission’s authority to m ake rates. In 1893
the Commission itself stated in one of its decisions th a t some
carriers continued to deny its power to fix rates upon com­
plaint. In 1898 the Louisville & Nashville R ailroad Com­
pany challenged the Commission’s pow er to m ake rates in
the first case affecting th a t company in which th e Commis
sion assumed to exercise th a t power. In 1895 the Commission
in its annual rep o rt asserted th a t its power to make rates
had been denied, th a t this dissenting view was not unsup­
ported by argum ent, and asked Congress to confer the ra te ­
m aking power upon it. In 1896 the Supreme C ourt decided
in the Social Circle case th at the Commission had no power
to m ake rates. T h at C ourt’s decision in 1897 in the “ m axi­
mum rate” case was simply an approval of its decision to the
same effect the year before.
Mr. Bacon’s statem ent th a t the exercise by the Commission
of the rate-m aking power for the first ten years of its exist­
ence produced the most satisfactory conditions in tran sp o rta­
tion affairs th a t have ever existed in the history of the ra il­
road service of the country, is not supported by, b u t is incon­
sistent with, the facts. The principal evils existing now and
in the past have been those incident to secret concessions in
rates. There is nothing to indicate th a t these same evils did
not exist during the first ten years of the life of the InterState Commerce A ct to the same extent as a t present, if not

1227

to a greater extent. There has been a steady dow nw ard
tendency in rates which was in no way 'arrested by the de­
cision in the m axim um rate case. Mach stress has been laid
upon certain increases in rates by changes in classification
about two years ago, but though num erous com plaints were
filed w ith the Inter-State Commerce Commission, and though
it has the undoubted au th o rity under the present law to de­
clare those increases unreasonable, and to take steps to pre­
vent their continuance, the Commission has not in a single
instance declared any of those Increases to be unreasonable.
Certainly com plaints as to unjust discrim inations between
localities are no more num erous or serious than in the j>ast.
Mr. Bacon’s statem ent th a t the Corliss bill does not con­
tem plate empowering the Commission to issue a schedule of
rates is incorrect. In the C incinnati and Chicago freight
bureau cases the Commission undertook to exercise precisely
the power conferred upon it by the Corliss bill, and in those
cases it in effect prescribed a schedule of rates on upw ards
of tw o thousand articles from Cincinnati and Chicago to
practically all points in the Southern States. This is a p rac­
tical illustration, not m erely of the au th o rity conferred by the
bill, but of the extensive use the Commission will make of it.
Mr. Bacon’s reference to the average delay of four years in
enforcing the Commission’s orders under the present p ro ­
cedure is misleading. According to the present procedure it
is the duty of the C ircuit Court to afford a speedy hearing of
the proceedings instituted by the Commission or others for
the enforcem ent of the Commission’s orders, and to enforce
all law ful orders of the Commission. No appeal taken by th e
carrier from a decision of a C ircuit Court enforcing an order
of the Commission can suspend the enforcem ent of th a t
order pending the appeal, unless th e C ircuit Court affirma­
tively perm its such suspension. The only delay, therefore,
there need ever be in th e enforcement, of a law ful order of
the Commission is th e tim e w hich it takes for a C ircuit
Court to render a decision upon it. Of course, if the C ircuit
Court, upon a consideration of all the circum stances of the
case, believes it w ill he more ju st to suspend the enforcement
of the order pending an appeal, it is obviously proper th a t the
order should be suspended.
Moreover, an exam ination of the num erous cases w hich
the Commission has taken into the courts will show th a t
only in one out of all of those cases, probably fifteen in
num ber, was the Commission finally sustained by the Court.
The fact is, therefore, th a t practically all the Commission’s
orders w hich it attem pted to enforce in court tu rn ed out to
be unlaw ful and were never enforced at any tim e. The
duration of the litigation over tht S3 unlaw ful orders, th ere­
fore, throw s no light cn the tim e it w ould take to secure en­
forcem ent of the Commission’s law ful orders. The fact is
th a t the Commission’s law ful orders are almcsfc w itnout ex­
ception prom ptly complied w ith by th e carriers w ith o u t the
necessity of going into court at all.
Mr. Bacon states th a t as a m atter of fact no ruling made
by the Commission during the ten years when it was its
practice to prescribe the rate to be substituted for one found
to be wrong has ever been set aside by the courts on the
ground of its being inequitable or unreasonable. If by this
he means to imply th a t the courts have always approved of
the reasonableness and propriety of the Commission’s orders,
bis statem ent is altogether misleading. Most of the cases in­
volving orders of the Commission have, w ith greater or less
emphasis, pointed ont th a t the orders w ere inherently un­
reasonable and im proper, aside from the question of the
Commission’s power to m ake the orders. See especially the
following cases : K. & I. Bridge Co. vs. L. & N. RR. Co., 37
Fed. 567; I. C. C. vs. B. & O. RR. Co., 45 Fed. 87, 145 U. S.;
I. C. C. vs. D. L. & W. RR. Co., 64 Fed. 724; I. C. C. vs. Ala.
Mid. Ry. Co., 69 Fed. 227, 74 Fed. 715; I. C. C. vs. L. & N.
RR. Co., 73 Fed. 409; I. C. C. vs. Lehigh Valley RR. Co,, 74
Fed. 784; I. C C. vs. W . & A. RR. Co., 88 Fed. 186, 93 Fed.
83, affirmed by Suprem e C ourt; I, C. C. vs. C. B. & Q. RR.
Co., 98 Fed. 173, 103 Fed. 249, ju st affirmed by Supreme
Court.
Mr. Bacon’s assum ption th a t investors have ample protec"
t ton in the power of the courts to set aside rates fixed by the
Commission, if too low, is unw arranted. It is clear th a t the
courts would not be disposed to exercise any control in the
premises, even if they had it, except in cases where the Com­
mission had been guilty of a palpable abuse of power and had
fixed rates w hichjpractically am ounted to confiscation. T has,

for practical purpoaee, virtually the entire margin of profit
would be subjected to the absolute discretion of the Commis­
sion, a tribunal not fitted either by experience or tempera­
ment to make rates, and wholly incapable of coping with the
almost infinite factors and details which would be involved,
Mr, Baker assumes that the rate-making power assumed
by the Corliss bill would be of a very limited character, and
that there is at present no substantial control over railroad
rates. There is now adequate power and reasonable pro­
cedure for correcting any rates which are unreasonably high
or unjustly disciiminating. Under the Corliss bill the Com­
mission would virtually become traffic manager of every
railroad in the country to whatever extent it might
choose to assume that position, and there would be far less
judicial restraint upon the acts of the Commission than
there now is upon the acts of the railroad companies, for the
restraint upon the railroads is adequate and the restraint
upon the Commission would not be.
Yours truly, B. B.

[Vol. LXXIV.

Of course the continued activity of general trade
in the U nited States accounts for these u n in terru p t­
edly favorable reports of earnings. The prosperity
of all classes with the large consuming capacity of
the population resulting from th a t cause adds on the
one hand to the volume of the freight traffic and on
the other hand stimulates travel over the railroads,
while in addition railroad rates are well maintained at
fairly good figures. In one part of the country there
was an adverse feature which must have had consider­
able influence in reducing the revenues of the roads
directly affected. We refer to the strike of the miners
in the anthracite region. This strike began May 12
and lasted throughout the month. O ar present state­
ment, however, does not include returns from any
of the anthracite roads, none of which furnishes early
preliminary figures. I t is hence likely th at when the
statements of these roads are received later in the
m onth,the favorable result now disclosed may to some
extent be modified.
The grain movement was notably small. A few
typical illustrations will serve to indicate the situa­
tion in th at regard. Of wheat the receipts at the
Western primary markets for the five weeks ending
May 31 were only 7,872,789 bushels, against 12,245,810 bushels in the same five weeks of 1901 ; of corn
the deliveries were only 8,681,898 bushels, as against
19,723,501 bushels ; of oats 13,281,540 bushels against
17,249,355 bushels ; in the case of barley the receipts
ran about \ million bushels larger th an last year, but
taking wheat, corn, oats, barley and rye together, we
get a total of receipts for the five weeks the present
year of only 31,535,123 bushels, as against 50,732,773
bushels. The loss, therefore, was over 19 million
bushels, representing, say, roughly, half a million tons
of freight. The following gives the details of the
grain movement in the usual form. I t will be ob­
served th at even the wheat receipts at Minneapolis
and D uluth were smaller than last year notw ithstand­
ing th a t the spring-wheat crop of 1901 ran much
ahead of th at of 1900. Because of this larger wheat
yield.it is to be presumed th at the railroads in that
part of the country had an increased wheat traffic,
even though the shipments to the points mentioned
fell below a year ago.

There is nothing new to record concerning the
gross earnings of U nited States railroads. As for so
long past, the returns are encouraging in the extreme.
In face of a smaller grain movement and a smaller
cotton movement, the totals keep steadily increasing.
A few roads lying in the section where the crop short­
age last season was most pronounced, and where the
carriers are more exclusively dependent upon the
agricultural yield than elsewhere, have fallen some­
what behind in their earnings as compared with a
year ago; but speaking of the railroad system of the
country as a whole, continued improvement in re ­
ceipts is still the most conspicuous feature.
The compilations which we present to-day cover
the m onth of May. They embrace the results of 84
roads operating 91,858 miles of line. On these roads
there is a gain in earnings over the same m onth last
year in the sum of $4,619,227. The length of road at
91,855 miles compares with 90,262 miles in the p re ­
vious year. Hence we have an increase in revenues
of 9TB per cent, with an increase of only 1*76 per
cent in mileage. The May statem ents of earnings
have been strikingly good for several successive years,
making the fa rth e r expansion in receipts the present
year the more significant and im portant. Thus th is
year’s improvement of $4,619,227, or 9T8 per cent,
follows an increase of 15,236,185, or 10*04 per cent in
May 1901, which in tu rn followed an increase of

On the separate roads there are some gains for very
large amounts. The most conspicuous of these oome
from the transcontinental lines on the North, the
Great Northern system reporting $609,718 increase,
the Canadian Pacific $549,153 increase and the
Northern Pacific $415,237 increase. But in other
parts of the country the results are only slightly less
gratifying. Thus the Illinois Central in the Middle
West reports $266,362 gain, the New York Central in
the East $179,747, the Southern Railway in the South
$264,377, the Louisville & Nashville $213,247, the
Norfolk & Western $283,466 and the Chesapeake &
Ohio $131,225. Even in the Southwest, where some
of the crops last year were almost a complete failure,
we bare such additions to last year's total as $108,825

THE GENERAL MANAGER.

Mr. Clouston then sa id :
There is nothing of unusual interest calling for comment in the state­
ment we lay before you this year. I t shows a steady increase in our
busi ness and a corresponding increase in our profits. The following
are the principal changes as compared with last year. Our circulation
has increased $525,000 and the deposits $14,139,000, making our
total deposits here and in other countries $86,825,633; quite a respect­
able amount, but still not large as compared to the deposits of banks
with smaller capital in Great Britain and the United States. Our
readily available assets have increased about $ 1 0 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 , and our
loans and discounts $4,360,000. The overdue debts, secured and un­
secured, are $77,000 greater, but we believe that we have amply pro­
vided for any possible loss. The profits show an increase of $63,630,
after paying all charges of management, all additions and repairs to
our bank premises, and making provision for bad and doubtful debts.
I think you will agree with me that the statement is a fairly satis­
factory one.
Nor have i anything of Importance to say on matters outside our
own statement. Generally speaking, the past year lias been a prosper*
o 11 one for Canada, and so far the hand of the commercial barometer
still stands at “ fair,” The revenues of the country are large; rail way
eai plugs are steadily Increasing; farmers are prosperous; the outlook
or lumber Is Improving, and the tide of immigration has set in with

greater volume, ensuring to Western Canada, and indeed to the whole
country, more rapid progress in population and material prosperity.
The natural resources of the country are being steadily developed; the
output of coal is inoreas ng, and it looks as If we wore on the eve of
im portant results in the iron and steel Industry. There are indications
also that the recent consolidation of Atlantic steamship lines by au
American syndicate will compel Canada, In self-defence, to take up the
question of a fast Atlantic service, and if we wish to secure immigra­
tion, retain the traffic properly belonging to our own ports, and safe­
guard the interests of our commerce, we must see th a t the service,
both passenger and freight, is second to none in speed and equipment.
There have been exceptions, .and some industries have not shared in
the general prosperity, but these can in most cases be traced to undue
competition and bad management. Mining in British Columbia is
still highly unsatisfactory, and it may be' some time yet before it re­
covers from the collapse of the last two or throe years.
The Stock Exchanges of Canada have shown an activity unexampled
in the history of the country, and though speculation has been rife,
there lias been a certain foundation for the advance in the quotations
of securities, and it is not entirely the wild, reckless state of affairs
that foreign crities profess to believe exists here. Still, there is danger
of speculation being'carried beyond legit imate bounds, and we have
probably reached a point where investors and lenders would do well
to look more closely Into the inlriusio value of I lie securities they purI chase, or accept as collaterals.

In 1900 they were nearly 79 millions ($78,852,197).
And in the present year over U>0 millions t$l 14 000,000).
The keen competition among banks necessitates a greatly enlarged
business to maintain dividends, and the public gets its financial busi­
ness done much more cheaply now than formerly.
The increase of our rest by one million of dollars will, no doubt, com­
mend Itself to your judgment as a prudent step, and should enhance
the value of our property.
The large ad d itio n to our H ead Office Building, now in progress, was
rendered necessary by the inconvenient overcrowding of our present
premises. The addition is on a considerable scale, and will, it is hoped,
suffice for tlte wants of the bank for years to come. Large as it is,
however, it is not more in advance of our present wants than our pros,
ent structure was when erected to the, conditions then existing
The beautiful facade of our present building will not be impaired;
but the interior will be remodeled to adjust it to the now premises and
make it fireproof.
The marked increase in the general banking business of the Dominion
is an evidence of the prosperity of the country. Since April, 1897, flic
total assets of all the banks have increased from $243,400,000 to $448,300,000; the deposits alone having risen from $196,700,000 in the
*ormer year to $339,000,000, and the note circulation from $30,800,000 to $50,700,000.
The Bank of Montreal lias fully shared in the great improvement In
business above noted, the general increase in the public deposits in the
last five years being equal to 72x per cent, and that of our bank alone
-2
considerably exceeds 1 0 0 per cent.
The conservative course of your directors in continuing to strengthen
the resources of the Bank will, I am sure, meet with your approval,
for while the general prosperity of the country shows no sign of abate­
ment, it seems an undeniable proposition to say that had times may be
expected sooner or later.
In commercial matters generally nothing is so striking as the growth
of the foreign commerce of the Dominion. In the first nine months of
the current fiscal year, that is to March 31st, the aggregate foreign
trade has reached $302,500,000, as compared with $282,300,000 in the
corresponding period of the preceding year, while only five years ago
our foreign commerce for the entire period of twelve months barely
reached $249,000,000, a figure which, in the fiscal year ending this
month, will probably be exceeded by more than 50 per cent. This ex­
pansion covers both exports and imports.
The most gratifying feature of the trade returns is the increased
sales abroad of Canadian products, which from 1st July to 1st April
amounted in value to $144,547,000, and for the full period of twelve
months will probably exceed $190,000,000; whereas six years ago the
value of our shipments was only $ 1 1 0 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 .
Products of the soil still constitute much the largest portion of this trade;
but it is satisfactory to note th at in manufactures the increase is about
30 per cent, or as $12,000,000 to $9,800,000; and I need scarcely refer
to the enormous activity in the production of iron, steel, nickel, etc., to
say nothing of the extraction of the precious metals, which for the
present is under a cloud.
Meanwhile the carrying trade of the country has been in an unprec­
edented state of activity and prosperity; the great railways are
spending liberally on track improvements and rolling stock to meet
the demands on them, and new trunk lines are under construction.
Immigration is increasing rapidly, and will have a favorable influ
ence in every direction. Lands, especially in the Northwest, which
have for years been in little demand, have latterly been actively
sought for and taken up.
Turning to general conditions outside of the Dominion, the immense
aggregations of capital in the hands of corporations and individuals is
bringing about economic results of the most startling character. The
control of railway lines, the absorption of ocean transports, the con
solidation of industries, all fly directly in the face of economic theories
based on unlimited competition, and he would be bold who attempted
to predict the outcome.
No fewer than four new banks were incorporated during the present
session of Parliament.
Questions of vital importance to ourselves and the Empii’e are to be
considered by the Imperial Government and the premiers of the col­
onies, at the conference to be held in London; its decisions will be
watched with absorbing interest and involve momentous possi­
bilities.
The present moment seems to be most favorable for securing an in­
dependent line of steamships to a Canadian port. They should in
speed and equipment be equal to any afloat, and the prospects of finan­
cial success for the undertaking were never, in my opinion, so bright
as now, while its realization would be of enormous benefit to tills
country.
I t is with the highest satisfaction and gratitude that we receive to­
day the news of peace in South Africa.

THE REPORT ADOPTED.
Mr. A. T. Paterson, In seconding the motion for the adoption of the
report, said that it was quite unnecessary to add anything to the re­
marks which had fallen from the Oh sir, and to the statement made by
the General Manager, beyond stating that he enolrely concurred in
them, and endorsed them. There was one;tliing, however, to which lie
might refer, and that was that on that day he had come of age, not
personally, but as a director of the Bank, and he wished to take the
opportunity of thanking the shareholders for their long-continued con*
fldence in him. He also wished 1 o say that his many j ears’ expe­
rience as a director enabled him most thoroughly to endorse the
statements made as to the improvement in the position of the Bank.
After a few remarks by Mr. John Morrison, the motion for the adop­
tion of the report was unanimously agreed to.
Hon. James O’Brien moved :
“That the thanks of the meeting be presented to the President, VicePresident and Directors for their attention to the interests of the
bank.”
This was seconded by Mr. Donald Maemaster, K. C., and having been
adopted unanimously, was acknowledged by the Chairman.
Mr. E. B. Greenshields moved: —
“That the thanks of the meeting be given to the General Manager,
the Inspector, the Managers and other officers of the bank, for their
services during the past year.”
The motion was seconded by Mr. James Ross, and the Chairman
having added that he fully concurred in it, and thought it was exceed­
ingly well deserved, It was unanimously carried, and was acknowl­
edged by the General Manager.
Mr. George R. Hooper moved: —
“That the ballot now open for the election of Directors be kept open
until 3 o’clock, unless fifteen minutes elapse without a vote being cast
when it shall be closed, and until that time, and for that purpose
only, this meeting be continued.”
This was seconded by Mr. C. J. Fleet, and unanimously agreed to.
On the motion of Mr. John Morrison, seconded by Mr. A. F. Gault,
a hearty vote of thanks was accorded to the Chairman for his conduct
of the business of the meeting, and he acknowledged the same.
THE DIRECTORS.
The ballot resulted in the election of the following directors:

The Money M arket and F in a n cia l S itu a tio n .—The se­
curity m arkets have continued inactive and for the most
p art featureless under conditions practically the same as
were noted last week.
The labor situation in the anthracite coal regions rem ains
unchanged in general feature and it still appears likely
th a t when the strike is ended the m iners will have retu rn ed
to work or their places have been filled by others. In the
m eantim e there is ample evidence of general business a c tiv ­
ity, and this promises to be augm ented by abundant harvests.
The money m arket continues easy and the dem and for for­
eign exchange is limited.
The open m arket rates for call loans on the Stock Exchange
during the week on Mock and bond collaterals have ranged
from 2% to 3% per cent. To-day’s rates on call 2% to 3 per
cent. Prim e commercial paper quoted a t 4% @ 5 per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statem ent on Thursday
showed an increase in bullion of £760,964, and the percent­
age of reserve to liabilities was 52’00, against 50’08 last
week; the discount rate rem ains unchanged a t 3 per cent.
The Bank of France shows a decrease of 4,650,000 francs
in gold and 325,000 francs in silver.

copper stocks, the general aspect of the outside m arket has
improved somewTiat. A part, however, from the copper

tion. Standard Oil ranged betw een 621 and 625%, and
Am erican Chicle rem ained dull a t 102%@102, against 101%

Boston & Philadelphia Steamship Co.—Re-incorporation.

organized to effect a re-capitalization and afford broader

Steamship Co., after declaring a cash dividend of 15p.c,, will
transfer its property to the new corporation for $712,600, a

outstanding share. Each stockholder may subscribe at par

Speculation in cotton for future delivery has been quiet.
The outside speculative interest in the market has largely
withdrawn, and the operations by regular dealers have been
confined largely to scalping transactions. The weather re­
ports from the cotton belt, especially in the Southwest, have
been the principal factor. Numerous complaints have been
received from Texas saying that the crop is in need of rains,
and advices received from some sections east of the Missis­
sippi report the condition of the crop as deteriorating, owing
to the absence of sufficient moisture. Based on the less favor­
able crop reports from the South, the tendency of prices, es­
pecially forthe newcrop deliveries, has been towards a slightly
higher basis. Cable advices were received on Thursday saying
that a heavy monsoon storm had broken over India, and this,
it was claimed, insures a good cotton crop for India. To-day
there was a steadier market, the continued dry weather in
the Southwest inducing some speculative buying, largely,by
room traders, and prices advanced a few points. The close
was steady at a net gain for the day of 4@i0 points, Cotton
on the spot has been steady, closing at 9 7-16c. fornniddling
uplands.
The rates on and off middling, as established Nov. 20,1901,

by the Revision Committee, at whioh grades other than
middling may be delivered on oontraot, are as follows.

W e a t h e r .—A lthough the w eek averaged som ew hat cooler than
usual in portions of the Lake region and N orthern N ew E ngland,
w here lig h t frosts occurred, the tem perature con d itions w ere general­
ly favorable in the districts ea st of the Rooky M ountains, and also in
the M iddle and South Pacific co a st regions. The S tates of the low er
M issouri V alley have again suffered from ex c e ssiv e rains, w hich have
also interrupted farm work in the northern portions of Illinois and In ­
diana and th e southern portions ot W isconsin and M ichigan, R ain Is
now gen erally needed along th e Gulf and A tla n tic coasts from Texas
to Southern N ew E ngland, and drought is becom ing serious in the
Oarolinas and in th e central and w©3t Gulf d istricts.
Corn —With am ple m oisture and favorable tem peratures corn has
made good grow th throughout the central v a lle y s, but is m uch in need
of cu ltivation in the S tates of the low er M issouri V alley and W iscon­
sin. In the low er Ohio V alley and T ennessee th e orop is w ell cu lti­
v ated and in prom ising condition, but in th e central and w est Gulf
S tates is suffering muoh from drought.
W in t e r W h e a t .—The w arm show ery w eather of th e p ast w eek has
been favorable to tb e developm ent of ru st in w in ter w h ea t in por­
tions of M issouri and In d ian a, and has caused lodging to som e ex ten t
in Illinois and Missouri. With th ese excep tion s a general im prove­
m ent in th e con d ition of th e orop is indicated. H arvestin g has begun
as far north as North Carolina, T ennessee and th e southern portions
of M issouri and K ansas, but is progressing under difficulties, resu ltin g
from h ea v y rains, In th e last-nam ed State. On th e Paoiflo co a st the
w heat outlook continues prom ising, although grasshoppers are caus­
ing som e dam age in th e Sacram ento and San Joaquin v a lley s.
Sprin g W h e a t .—Spring w h eat has m ade rap id grow th and is in
promising oonditlon throughout th e spring-w heat region, e x ce p t on
low lan d s, w here it has suffered from excessive m oisture.
Oats .—I n th e S tates of the M issouri and upper M ississippi v a lley s

and lake region, oats have m ade good progress and are in prom ising
condition, although too rank grow th is reported from portions of Il­
linois, Iow a, M innesota and W isconsin. In the upper Ohio V alley,
Middle and South A tlan tic and ea st Gulf S tates th e crop is inferior.

N e w Y o b k , F r id a y , P. M ,, Ju ne IB, 1902.
The m arket has passed through another q uiet, u n ev en tfu l
w eek so far as the hom e trade is concerned, but at th e close
there is practical evidence of more in terest being taken in
the h eavy brown goods situation by buyers on China ac­
cou n t, th e first business of any im portance since th e m iddle
of A pril being recorded. Should th is w eek’s b usiness be
follow ed by further transactions of any m om ent, it should
have an appreciable effect upon the heavy cotton goods d iv i­
sion, export grades Btill being generally sold ahead. In both
staple lin es and seasonable fancies the hom e trade adhere
stead ily to a hand-to m outh policy. T hey are evid en tly of
opinion th at there is noth ing in sig h t to cause apprehensions
of higher prices for som e tim e to com e, w h ile the opinion
still prevails q uite generally th at in som e directions there
w ill be at least a tem porary revision in their favor. Meanhile sellers pursue an even course w ith very few exceptions.
There are stocks on hand in occasional quarters, and in e f­
forts to clean these up price concessions w ere som etim es
m ade. Such concessions have, how ever, no influence upon
th e general tone, w hich continues steady.
W oolen G oods.—The re-order dem and for m en’sw ear
w oolen and w orsted trouseriDgs and su itin gs has again been
on a quiet scale this w eek, to the disappointm ent of sellers,
the m ajority of whom looked for an extension of supplem en­
tary buying by this tim e. To som e exten t the return busi­
ness is hampered by the fact that m any sellers are b eh ind ­
hand w ith deliveries of sam ple pieces, thus retarding th e
operations of clothiers in connection w ith the fall trade in
garm ents. C lothiers report, as a rule, fairly satisfactory re ­
su lts where they have been in a position to test their ou tlets
for fall, but even in snch instances there is no disposi­
tion to anticipate requirem ents to any extent. The g en ­
eral tone of the m arket w h ile dull is steady.
There
are irregularities In prices, chiefly in fancies, but stand­

Several thousand bales o f h eavy brow n cottons, c h ie fly
drills, have been sold for export to C hina this w eek at prices
w hich show a stead y m arket for export grades. The hom e
trade dem and for a ll descriptions of brown sh eetin gs and
drills has been in differen t, w ith som e irreg u la rity in prices of
3-yard and 4-yard sheetin gs. The looked for changes in the
prices of bleached m uslins have not y et been m ade, and buy­
ers are keeping purchases dow n to sm all proportions in a ll
grades. Cam bric m u slin s are w ell sold ahead and firm. The
demand for denim s is quiet, but stocks are sm all and prices
m aintained. Low -grade tick in gs sh ow irregularity in prices,
but fine grades are firm. Other coarse, colored cottons are
steady, w ith a m oderate business in progress. Sales of w id e
sheetings and co tto n flannels are lim ited , but cotton blankets
are in good request for quick deliveries. D ark fancy calicoes
have been in considerable dem and this w eek in best lin es and
firm in price. Staple calicoes are w ell sold up as a rule.
There is a fair dem and and th e tone of the m arket is firm.
F in e printed and fine w oven pattern ed fabrics are sellin g
w ell for n ext year. G ingham s are scarce and v ery firm.
Bids of 33^c. for regular print cloth s have been m ade and de­
clined, F a il R iver holding for 3J^c. N arrow odds h ave sold
on the latter basis. W id e odds are q uiet and unchanged.

promptly and regularly do all that it believes to be in its
power to preserve its credit and to proteot the city from
damage by future storms. The present plans contemplate an
expenditure of about $3,500,000 for sea w all and filling.
Copies of the proposition are being sent to holders of the
bonds who are parties to the bondholders’ agreement, and
these holders are requested to com m unicate w ith the Secre­
