Sometimes the courts have condemned labor organiza"in restraint of trade;" sometimes because they involved undue interference with employers and sometimes because they exercised unjust 'coercion over other workmen.* To all these grounds Mr. Cheyney takes exception. The restraint of trade by labor organizations is a mere trifle compared with that which results from organizations of capital. The disturbance and fluctuatioa resulting from strikes is not peculiar to those trades where labor is orgiinized, but is even more severe in some others.

But the South is developing so fast in a general way that this circumstance does not appear to have had much effect. The Louisville & Xashville, the Mobile & Ohio, the Richmond & Danville, the Erlanger roads but one), the Nashville Chattanooga & St. Louis, have striking gains. Even the smaller roads like the Cape Fear & Yadkin, the Natchez Jackson & Columbus, the New Orleans & Gulf, and the Savannah (all all Americus & Montgomery, are distinguished in the same way, which shows how general is the improvement in that section. Out of thirty-four roads there are only about eight that report any decrease, among them the Chesapeake & Ohio, whose loss is due to the transfer of through freight to the Richmond & Alleghany, forming part of the same system. The subjoined table will give some idea of the progress making in the South. It shows that on the nine roads embraced in the statement, gross earnings in May, 1889, were $4,483,337 against only $3,161,339 in May, 1886, being an increase of over 40 per cent in three years.

Tl.e city of Oporto in Portugal is just now passing through a serious crisis. Some months ago the Government granted a large subs.dy to a new wine company, and gave it such privileges as would enable it to ruin all competitors. The city of Oporto, which is the centre of the port wine trade, protested so vigorously that the measure was withdrawn, but a new company is now subsidized with even larger and more objectionable powers than the first. All of the win? meroliants in Oporto have protested, and have closed their doors. The workpeople are thrown out of employment, and serious distress is feared. The workpeople, however, fully sympathize with their emisloyers. They have been holdii g large and enthusiastic meetings to protest against the Government measure. But the Government has answered by marching troops into the city and dispersing meetings by force. As yet there have been no serious riots, but fears are entertained that the city may at any moment be thrown into a convulsion. The sugar market is strong, the quotation for this month's delivery being about 23 shillings per cwt. The visible supply is only about 845,000 tons, against over 1,200,000 tons at this time last year and 1,260,000 tons at the corresponding date two years ago. A South African paper of the date of May 1st just received states that the export of gold from South Africa in the year 1885 was only of the value of £69,500, in 1887 the value had risen to £236,000 and in 1888 the value was £906,200. In the first four months of the present year the value of the meta' exported was £428,000. The wheat market is unchanged. On Sunday the weather, -which for a fortnight previously had been very beautiful, broke, and since then there has been a heavy fall of rain all over the country, accompanied by lightning and hail with floods in some districts. It was expected, therefore, that quotations would rise, but as a matter of fact there has been scarcely any advance. The negotiations between the copper-mining companies and the warrant holders are dragging. It was reported last week that an agreement had been arrived at between the American companies and the warrant holders, but it is now said that the agreement is not in writing and is not binding. With the English companies negotiations have made little progress. The Mason & Barry, the Tharsis and the Cape copper companies were not paid for the copper delivered by them to tlie Societe des Metaux at the beginning of the year, and they will agree to nothing until payment is made. The liquidator of the Comptoir d'Escompte has offered a compromise, which, however, has been rejected, and for the moment, at upward movement all events, ever. On looks as if an arrangement were as far off as the prospect of an arrangement being made copper it mining shares rose, but the market seems to be again Wheat o-wt.

Financial Situation.—The Stock 14, The Money Market anil Exchange continues to be the centre of interest in financial Now that its transactions embrace dealings in petrooircles. leum certificates, cotton oils, sugar trusts and lead trusts, the Exchange reflects the situation in these leading articles of commerce as well as in the numerous stocks and bonds which represent the capitalization of railroads and other corporations, and the Government, State and city debts. The extraordinary strength here and there in special stocks or groups of stocks has been the chief feature of the past week, and while the general confidence in railroad securities shows no signs of abatement, the most active dealings have been in these specialties. The very considerable rise in stocks leads some operators to realize before leaving town for the summer, and also suggests to others that there is less room for a fiu'ther rise than there was a mouth ago. Earnings keep up very well, and if the railroads can only obtain fair prices for transportation of the crops this season, their prospects would seem to be generally good. There is a certain interest attaching to the prices paid on the transfer of membersliips in the various Eschangcs in N_»w York and other cities, and it appears that while the New York Stock Exchange seats command higher fi ^ures than a year ago, nearly all of the other Exchan <e memberships are iield to be !es3 valuable than they were in" June, 1888.

The general tone continues strong, and the demand keeps up well. Qtiite a number of bonds have been marked up, a few of the lowerpriced classes having also been relatively active, including Denver & Rio Grande 4s and improvement its, Denver Western Trust receipts, Atlantic & Pacific 4s and Missouri Kansas Texas 53 and 63. Though less active than these, the Reading bonds have all advanced, in sympathy with tlie advance in Reading and other coal stocks. & — Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.

"The territory of rapid growth of population and product had been pushed beyond the Missouri River into the region of cheap lands. In the meantime, while the lines of this comEany terminated at the Missouri, its competitors for business ad extended beyond, reaching in many instances the extreme western boundaries of population east of the mountains and Tims the volume of traffic received by this even farther. company for carriage to and from the west was materially affected, while, in order to restore the equilibrium overbalanced by the reduction in rates, the reverse was necessary; a larger .

Texas Land Grants.— Judge Key, in the District Court of Travis County, Texas, on the 10th inst., rendered a decision ia favor of the State against the Galveston Harrisburg & San Antonio Railroad, on a question involvi»ig the land grant. The dscision, if sustained, would be important as affecting the grants of a number of roads in Texas, but it is tliought in railroad circles that it will be set aside by the Supreme Court of the State. The decision rests on Constitutional gi'ounds and affects only land certificates located since 1876, when the Constitution present was made. If it should turn out that Judge Key has good law on his side, the State of Texas, instead of talking the lands away from the parties who have in good faitli come into possessioa of them, ought to hasten and have a law passed at the first session of the Legislatiue confirming their title beyond aU doubt. There is no charge of fraud or dishonest transactions of any sort, and the State procured and encouraged the building of railroads by these land grants The State has particularly invited the. outlay of Northern aud European capital in constructuig railroads within her bordere, and now, after thirteen years, to turn around and on a point extraordinarily technical, to undertake to regain possession of part of the lands, seems to be a proceeding as un just in its immediate effect as it would be unwise in frightening capital away from the State in the f utm'e.

The business for the three days was only 28.700 bales the smallest recorded for the same period in the history of our Cotton Exchange. Naturally the fluctuations in prices were within the narrowest limits. The statistical position on this side was regarded as an element of strength, but the improved rejiorts from the growing crop were about equally an element — of weakness. pool si>ot ' ' i ' On Wednesday the sluggish action of the Livermarket, after having been closed for several days, , ] I « had a discouraging effect upon our bulls, and they unloaded with considerable freedom. Some of the more venturesome bears aLso put out short contracts to a moderate extent, and prices steadily gave way until lO'GOc. for August was reached, when a slight recovery took place, on some buying to cover. Yesterday there was a slight advance, on a better report from Liver])ool, but at the better figures business again became exceedingly dull, and the early advance was more than lost. Today there was a further decline, August options selling about noon at 10'50c. From this price there was a partial recovery, New York is relatively much cheaper Cotton on the spot met with a good demand for home consumption at steady prices. The bears to the .speculation in futures declare that much of our stock is of very low grades, and that good lines are scarce; but there is probably some exaggeration in such assertions. To-day there was a decline of l-16c., middling uplands closing the bulls asserting that than any other great market. <» ' ° at lli^c. The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 207,400 bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week 8,107 bales, including 965 for export, 7,142 for consiunption, for speculation, and in transit. Of the above bales were to arrive.

At first handa the demand for seasonable goods was seemingly governed br preasing necessities, the close approtchof the "stock taking" period having rendered jobbers very cautious in their operations. There was more inquiry for such fabrics as dark priota and g^inghams, anil a fair business was done in this connection, though many of the mill agents are not yet prepared (o show full lines of samples. The jobbing trade was nuiet a* regards personal selection*, but the re-order demand (by mail and wire) was fully as good as is usually witnoaaed at this stage of this season.
