MICHIGAN CENTRAL & THE GRAND TRUNK.
There appears to
be
some
misconception
as to
the
mean¬
ing of the
announcement that the Michigan Central has
withdrawn its through passenger service from the Great
Western of Canada and will hereafter give it exclusively
to
the Canada Southern.
to be to
regard it as
The
prevailing inclination seems
something entirely unlooked for aud
uncalled for, and consistent only with the idea of an inten¬
tion on the
part of the Vanderbilt people to force an open
American-owned lines the
policy which was subsequently
pursued—namely, consolidation ; and with that consolida¬
tion and the formation of a through line from Buffalo to
Chicago under one management, the use of the CanadaSouthern end alone (instead of it and the Great Western'*
of Canada as formerly), followed as a matter of course.
But it may be claimed that the Canada Southern and the1
Michigan Central have for a long time been under sub¬
stantially the same ownership, and yet the parties in
control never gave the former the whole of the Michigan
Central’s traffic.
"Why, then, should the change bo made'
now ?
There were evident reasons for the former policy,
and there seem to be good reasons also for the change/:
It is just about five years since the Vanderbilts obtained
possession of the two roads. Both were acquired simul¬
taneously.
In fact, the acquisition of one made the'
acquisition of the other a necessity, for even at that
time the amalgamation of the Great Western and the
Grand Trunk was among the possibilities, and with either
the Michigan Central or the Canada Southern in adverse
hands the other would have been of comparatively little!
use.
Yet, when Mr. Vanderbilt did secure both roads,
he did not deprive the Great Western of its proportion of
the Michigan Central through traffic.
There was talk,
indeed, even then of building the E>sex Cat-Off (the'same ;
that ha3 now been built) and giving the Canada Southern
the whole of the traffic;- but if there really was any inteii-*
tion of adopting that policy it must have been soon aban-’*
doned, for only a little time afterwards we hear of ’the ’
appointment of Mr. Thomas A. Scott as arbitrator/ to ’
decide what percentage of the through business between
Detroit and Buffalo was to go to the Canada Southern*1
and what to the Great
Western; and hi3 decision that the
percent and the latter 60 per cent
on
passenger business and 45 and 55 per cent respectively '
on freight business.
Some dissatisfaction was expressed
at this decision by the Canada Southern people, but it was
accepted, and we believe the percentages have never since
been changed.
With the Michigan Central delivering all '
its traffic to the Canada Southern, instead of dividing it *
with the Great Western, the Canada Southern’s percentage
of this pool business between Detroit and Buffalo would
no doubt have been much
larger, and the question recurs,
why did Mr. Vanderbilt content himself with such a small
pbrtion of the business for his road.

15,000 acres of private property had swelled to 950,000
years,
There were some fifty-one separate estates, ranging
in size from 1,000 to 100,000 acres.
These different
estates were for the most part in the lower country where
the land is most valuable, and were connected by 200 miles
of railroad.
There were eleven principal stations, at each
of which was built a factory, costing from $750,000 to
$1,000,000. According to a reasonably fair calculation,
the material imported for railroad purposes must have cost
at least one million sterling, and the railroads and factories
included must have exceeded in cost the sum of three
millions sterling. These eleven principal stations, with
their sugar factories and their connecting railroad system,
represent only about one-fourth of the land formerly owned

sugar estates, and there were numerous cotton estates in
the Delta.
The

Daira estates and

managed separately. The latter had been distributed
for the most part as they were acquired among the
members of the Khedivial family ; and as they repre¬

It is

but the second finds most
favor.
The difficulty seems to point to the scarcity of
probable buyers. One banker, however, has promised to
find purchasers, on condition that all sales whether
nego¬
tiated by him or not shall yield to him a commission of 2
per cent ; and a local bank, the Credit Foncier, has
undertaken to advance, when desired, 60 per cent of the
purchase money, on the security of the property, and at the
rate of 1 per cent above the rate at which it can procure
money in Europe.
If this plan should succeed with the
Domains, it will be resorted to in the case of the property
of the Daira.
Carried out the plan would extinguish the
debt on both the Domains and the Daira ; but it would
leave the foreign debt as it is. It seems to be doubtful
whether native capital will be able to provide the 40 per
cent necessary to make up the price of the lands.
The
experiment will be watched with interest, as it promises to
be an important step towards the liberation of Egypt from

THE CHRONICLE
markets have been in any
degree active. On the contrary, con¬
sidering how fine is the weather and how free the money market
seems to be from disturb mce, the business is
surpri-ingly quiet.
Of course, this shows that there is no such complete restoration
of confidence as induces the general public to take an active
part iu Stock Exchange business. It would not, however, be
correct to attribute this disinclination entirely
to a want of con¬
fidence.
The return given below shows that the commitments
to new undertakings this year have been very
heavy, and that
large payments have to be made. The public’s capital cannot be
in two places at the same time, and for some months
past new
undertakings and loans have been more tempting than the
older classes of securities.
Some loans have been advertised
this week, but two of them have for their object the

The usual business of
company will be transacted.
After last Saturday’s rain—which,
the eastern and southeastern
a
laud and mortgage
however, only extended to
districts—the weather has been
brilliant, and vegetation has been making rapid and healthy
progress. At the present rate the harvest will.not be so mack in
arrear, but the season is still late.
The prospects for the crops
is more satisfactory than it has been for some seasons
past. The
yield of fruit is expected to be large and of good quality. Hops
promise well, and, owing to the high prices which have been
current during the season, it is understood that a
larger area of
land is under cultivation. This will not, however, add to this
year’s production, but will augment the supply iu future years.
The wheat plant is now looking strong and healthy, and there
is prospect of a fair yield of good
quality. Other cereals, as
well as beans and peas, promise well; but for these later-sown
crops some showers of rain would be beneficial.
Fine weather and ample supplies from abroad have caused
the wheat trade to rule extremely quiet, but there has been no
material change in prices. English wheat is reaching market
in good condition, and as the quality is very satisfactory, a
steady consumptive sale is experienced for it. There is no
speculation in the trade, and-as long as the weather remains
fine, there is no reason for expecting any change from the pres¬
ent condition of tilings.
The large imports of wheat—and especially of flour—during
the current season, and the augmented deliveries
of home¬
grown produce without any corresponding increase iu the stocks,
have, for some lime past, been an enigma which lias not yet
been very satisfactorily solved.
It will b3* seen by the usual
returns that the quantity of wheat and flour derived from
home and foreign sources during the first 39 weeks of the
has amounted to 97,667,874 esvt., which compares with
80,063,690 cwt. in the corresponding period of last season. The
increase is, therefore, 17,600,000 cwt.
But the stocks of foreign
produce at the outports have not increased in a corresponding
ratio, and the trade is, therefore, driven to the conclusion that
the consumption of bread has been
materially augmented.

Prime commercial
persons refuse to accept its figures as representing correctly
the condition of the crop, and on the other hand the reports
spring wheat, especially in the Northwest, continue very
good. The prospect for a large corn crop is also very favor¬
ably regarded jp,t this date.
Speculation in grain and in petroleum has been less active,
and prices of grain have declined in view of the better grow¬
ing weather and the improved crop prospects based thereon,
despite the adverse report of the Bureau.
The financial situation remains almost unchanged, except in
the one feature of increased confidence in regard to the general
aspects of trade and industry for the future, and though this
may seem a somewhat vague and general expression, it is a
well recognized fact that capital is less distrustful than a few
weeks ago, and more disposed to take hold of new enterprises.
At this time a year ago it was apparent that in many brandies
of trade and industry—notably in the iron, leather and dry
goods lines—the outlook was not particularly encouraging. It
is believed that all these have now passed through the worst
stages of depression, and that the effects of the readjustments
of credits and values in each are gradually disappearing.
The money markets of this country continue abundantly
supplied with funds at low rates of interest, and though there
has been no change in rates of discount for mercantile paper
the past week, there is increased willingness on the part of the
banks to make liberal discounts. Tne expansion of $3,560,800
in the loans of the New York banks, according to their state¬
ment of averages last week, was, however, believed to have
been made largely for speculative purposes in the stock market,
and the correctness of this presumption has been sustained by
a large ad vance in prices of stocks during the week. The banks
are still in a position to increase their loans several
millions
and yet be in stronger position than at the corresponding time
last year, as the surplus reserve on June 10 was $9,069,175,
against $5,135,325 at the corresponding time in 1882.
The Bank of England continues to gain in specie, the gain
for the week to June 14 being £569,000 and the reserve having
increased from 35% last week to 39% per cent of its liabilities
this week. The total gain of the Bank since May 17th has
been £1,538,000, and the percentage of reserve has been in¬
creased to 39-4 per cent from 32% per cent since then. The
on
3,400,000 francs in
gold and 675,000 francs in silver, and the net result of the last
three weeks shows a loss of 7,017,500 francs in gold and silver,
the greater part (namely 5,625,000 francs) being in gold.
The following table shows the changes from tne previous
we^k and a comparison with the two preceding years in the

Exchange.—The market for sterling has been very quiet
with no change in rates during the week. At one time in the
last week, as also at one time in the previous week, the Cana¬
dian banks advanced their posted rates % cent, to $4 86% and
$4 90, but the other leading drawers did not follow and the
attempted advance was a failure. The exports of cotton and
breadstuffs are only fairly liberal, but the imports are small.

Financial Situation.—The gen¬
eral mercantile situation lias changed but little the past week.
In the dry goods jobbing trade there is cnly a moderate busi¬
ness in the Eastern cities, though there has been a rather
larger volume of business at the West, and the Western mer¬
chants report sales good and collections satisfactory. The
iron trade, though somewhat improved from a week ago, is
still depressed, and it is noted that steel rails are selling at the
lowest prices ever reached and many other varieties of iron
are also at nearly the lowest figures for many years.
The June report of the United States Agricultural Depart¬
ment on the condition of the winter wheat crop is even less
favorable than had been expected, but many well informed

railroad bonds
moderately active, and prices, where changed at all,
have advanced.
Foreign investors continue to take moderate
amounts of the best railway bonds, but the demand from that
quarter is not so large as several weeks ago. Such as it is,
however, it represents the total of investments of foreign
capitaUn American securities, as there are no purchases (or
scarcely any) of railway stocks for foreign account. The
largest business during the week has been in the West Shore
bonds, at prices ranging from 78% a week ago to 80% on Fri¬
day, June 15. Texas & Pacific (Rio Grande Division) 6s have
sold pretty largely at 84 and up to 85% on Friday, closing at
85%. There have been some important changes in prices of
other issues, though on a small amount of business, namely,
Lehigh & Wilkesbarre cqnsols, which advanced from 103 to
105}4, Louisville & Nashville bonds from 89% to 91%, Rome
Watertown & Ogdensburg 5s from 70 to 74, and re-acted to 72%;
Alton & Terre Haute dividend bonds advanced to 81. The
most notable advance has been in Wabash general mortgage
6s, from 75% a week ago to 79 on Friday, June 15. This ad¬
vance is said to be part of the operations of Mr. Gould in the
general advancing of the Wabash securities. •
There has been very little change in State bonds, though the
general demand for interest-paying investments has produced
an advance in some of the better class of these bonds.
On
last Saturday
there was an advance of 5 per cent in the
Little Rock & Fort Smith Railroad aid bonds. The pending
suit to test the validity of these issues by the State does not
seem to have affected the prices of the bonds this week.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—There has been an
advancing market for railway'stocks during the week since
last Friday.
The highest prices of last week were nearly all
made on Friday, the 8th, and comparing the closing prices on
that day with those of Friday, the 15th, there was an advance as
follows, viz.: Canada Southern, 1%; Delaware Lackawanna &
Western, 1%; Erie, 1%; Illinois Central, 1%; Lake Shore, 2%;
Louisville & Nashville, 2%; Michigan Central, 2; Manhattan,
4Jg, and the new common Manhattan, 7; New York Central,
1; Jersey Central, 1%; Northwestern, 1% on common
and
2%
on
preferred; Northern Pacific, 1% on
common'and preferred respectively; Oregon Navigation,
3%: Oregon & Trans-Continental, %; Reading, 2% 5 St. Paul,
if Manitoba, 2%: Wabash, 3% on common and 2
on preferred ; and Western Union, 1% per cent.
Other stocks
than the above named have shared only to a limited
extent in the advance, though it is apparent that with improv¬
ing crop prospects, the subsidence of apprehensions about a
war in the trunk line pool, and the ease in the money market,
the disposition to speculate on the bull side has increased.
This disposition is, however, as yet confined to a limited pub¬
lic in this country, while foreigners, as said above, are buying
State and Railroad Bonds.—The market for
has been
_
scarcely
any
stocks.

REPORTS.
Indiana Bloomington & Western
Railway Company.
(For the year ending Dee. 31, 1882.)
The annual report for 1882, just issued, has the following :
In addition to the mileage operated in 1881, we operated
-during the year the Indianapolis Decatur & Springfield Rail¬
way, extending from Indianapolis to Decatur.
Owing to the
delays resulting from long-continued unfavorable weather, the
completion of our new line from Indianapolis to Springfield,
Ohio, connecting our lines west of Indianapolis with our leased
lines in Ohio, with the necessary side tracks, station-houses,
water and coaling stations, &c.f was prevented until nearly the
close of the year.” * * * “ The business on the new line is
growing rapidly, and we find ourselves able to run fast through
solid trains over the entire system, making prompt connections,
and in the possession of a large and increasing traffic fully
equal to all just estimates, While the business on all other
divisions shows a satisfactory increase, the eatnings of the
Indianapolis Decatur & Springfield division fell off considerably
from the earnings reported by that company for the previous
year. During the first half of the year this lease proved a
considerable loss, but in the last six months the earnings largely
increased, so that at the end of the year the net deficit from
“
the lease amounted to $52,102.”
*
*
*
“In addition to ordi¬
operating expenses there are included in the subjoined
operating expenses very large extraordinary
expenditures ($257,000) incurred in completing the plans
adopted and carried forward in 1881 for the general improve¬
ment of the road and equipment.”
Large expenditures were also incurred for new work, includ¬
ing the acquisition of increased terminal facilities, the con¬
struction of side tracks, new docks, &c. These expenditures
being for absolute additions to the property, are carried to
account of construction and equipment.
At the close of the year 1881 401 miles were in operation,
but the Ohio Div., 190 miles, was acquired in May, 1881, and
the earnings given below include that division for the eight
months only. In January, 1882, the Indianapolis Decat ur^fc
Springfield (152 miles) became a part of this road, and during
the year the new line (142 miles) was opened, though not ready

New York & Greenwood Lake RR. Co.
(For the year ending Dec. 31, 1882.)
Mr. Abram S. Hewitt, President of this road, makes a report
for 1882, from which the following is condensed:
“
For the first time in its history, the receipts have been suffi¬
cient to defray the expenditures for operating the road. The
gross
revenue
from traffic amounted to $175,100, being
an.
increase over the year 1881 of $20,743, equal to about 13 per cent.
The cost of maintaining and operating the road, exclusive of
taxes, interest and losses
on Watchung RR., amounted to $154,decrease of expenses, as compared with 1881, of
$43,671. - The surplus amounted to $20,411, as contrasted with
a loss of $44,003 in 1881, showing a net improvement of $64,415
on the business of the year. It will be observed with satisfaction
that while the gross earnings have increased, the expenses have
been diminished, resulting largely from the expenditures here¬
tofore made for filling trestles and re-building bridges.
The loss incurred in operating the road in 1879, 1880 and
1881, including taxes and interest on floating debt, amounted in
the aggregate to $149,281. It is now $152,936, showing that
the actual loss on the operations of the year 1882 amounted to
$3,655, against a deficit of $82,237 in 1881. In addition to this
deficiency, arising out of the traffic operations, there has been
charged to construction since the road came into our possession
the sum of $60,698, of which $9,214 was expended in 1882.
“Daring the present year about four miles of track will be
relaid with steel rails, making about one-half the entire length
of the road thus re-laid, and insuring what has heretofore been
doubtful—the continued operation of the road.” * * *
“No further advances of money can be expected from the
New York Lake Erie & Western RR. Company and from
Cooper & Hewitt. It is only by means of the advances hereto¬
fore made by these parties that the road has at length reached
a position where it may reasonably be expected to be self-sus¬
taining.” * * *
The Watchung RR. (the branch to Orange) has furnished a
business more than equal to the increase of passenger traffic
during the last year. This branch is operated at a loss, but
not greater than the additional receipts contributed to our road,
and it is therefore deemed best to continue its operation, in the
hope that it may ultimately be extended to a connection with
the New Jersey Central RR which would make it a valuable

Carolina Central.—At Raleigh. N. C., June 7, in the United
States Circuit Court, argument was finished in the case of Mrs.
•
Virginia B. Matthews, against the Seaboard Railroad Company,
to recover possession of the Carolina Central Railroad, which is
now under the management of the Seaboard road.
The plain¬
tiffs alleged that the control of the Carolina Central Railroad
had ben secured by fraud, and that the road is now being
wrecked virtually by the defendants. The defence alleged
that the subordination of the Carolina Central to the Seaboard
system had not injured the former, that the transfer and con¬
trol Were legal, and that there had been no violation of trust.
Judges Bond and Seymour took the papers in the case, and
The case will probably go up oa ap¬
peal to the United States Supreme Court.

purpose of voting on a proposition to join
the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railroad Company in
guaranteeing stocks and bonds to the amount of $1,545,000 in
building the Pittsburg McKeesport & Youghiougbeny Railroad.

Comparative Port Receipts and Daily Crop Movement.—
A comparison of the port movement by weeks is not accurate
as the weeks in different years do not end on the same day of
the month. We have consequently added to our other standing
tables a daily and monthly statement, that the reader miv
constantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative
movement for the years named.
The movement each month
since September 1, 1882, has been as follows.

latterly have been somewhat nominal in value for that reason
To-day the market was dull, weak and nearly nominal.
Wheat has, on the whole, sold pretty freely for export trade,
beiDg stimulated by some decline in prices, the present figures
being lc. under those of a week ago. Options, on the other
hand, have been quiet, especially during the la^t few days, and
prices have fallen 1 to 2 cents. Owing to cooler weather at the
West an attempt was made in Chicago to advance prices;
covering by shorrs assisted the manipulations somewhat, but
the market soon fell back, the speculation in the West proving
about as spiritless as it has been Imre*, with die fluctuations
confined to a narrow range. To-day the market was H to %c.

moderate increase in the volume of business the
the incentive to liberal transactions in that class of
goods. The demand for seasonable goods was comparatively
light, and chiefly confined to such small assorted lots as are
wanted for immediate distribution ; but some descriptions of
fall goods have met with rather more attention from out-oftown jobbers who intend
making shipments by canal in order
to obtain
cheap freights. The feature of the week was a
peremptory auction sale of cassimeres, coatings, &c., which
attracted a large company of cloth and dry goods jobbers,
clothing manufacturers, &c., and at which over 12,000 pieces of
woolen goods wrere disposed of. The
prices obtained were by
no means remunerative to the
manufacturers, but as good as
were anticipated in the
present depressed and glutted condition
of the woolen
goods maiket, and the goods were w'ell dis¬
tributed.
