The full details of clearings for the week covered by the
above statement will be given next Saturday. We cannot, of
course, furnish them to-day, bank clearings being made up by
th e various clearing houses at noon on Saturday, and hence in
the above the last twenty-four hours of the week have to be
in all cases estimated, as we go to press Friday night.
Our usual detailed figures for the previous week, covering
the returns for the period ending with Saturday noon, June 9,
•s well as the comparative totals in 1893 are given below.
Compared with the preceding week, the aggregate exchanges
■how a decrease of nearly seventy-four millions of dollars, the
gain at Hew York being twenty-nine millions. Fourteen of
the cities record gains over the corresponding week of 1893,
but in the total for the whole country there is a decline of 21*8
per cent. Th" heaviest losses are at Chattanooga, 54*9 per
cent; Buffalo. 53*1, and Seattle, 536 per cent. The most
important gains have been at Memphis, 47*5; Fort Worth,
39-9 ; Binghamton, 23*9, and Dai Moines, 21 per cent.

THE CHRONICLE.
THE FIN AN CIAL SITUATION.
Present appearance* favor the conclusion that the
industrial depression has culminated this week.
The
bituminous coal strike, the most disorganizing labor
trouble the country has ever experienced, has been
‘ 'se ttle d " by the Executive Board of the “ United
Mine W orkers." We state that it has been settled, al
though the men in many districts have up to the time
we write refused to concur in the terms agreed upon,
and have asserted that they will not return to work on
Monday, the day fixed. Notwithstanding this opposi
tion, the better opinion seems to be that the strike is
,at an end. “ The Executive Board " had the authority
under the rules of the “ United Mine W ork ers" or
ganization to effect a settlem ent; they have not gone
beyond their authority at all, and consequently a large
number of the strikers will conform to the terms
agreed upon and go to work. It is quite possible that
in some districts the men will hold out for a time ; but
no doubt the strike is broken, and after two weeks or
less there will most likely be very few men not
working_who can get work. The break would have
come sooner than it has if the State officials, wherever
the strikers were engaged in lawless acts, had done
their duty earlier and stopped the attacks on working
miners and the destruction of private property. Two
weeks ago we said “ the end is near,” as “ the men
have recently become more violent and riotous,” and
as a consequence the “ State authorities have begun to
interfere.” That forecast appears to have correctly
represented not only the result but probably the state
of affairs which induced it.
What this settlement may accomplish in its influence
on our industries may be in good part gathered from
our monthly article on railroad earnings on subsequent
pages to-day. It will be useful to recall, as a preliminary
to a correct judgment, the very favorable improvement
in business which had taken place when the strike was
ordered. In the C h r o n i c l e of April 14, page 616, we
remarked upon this change, citing the increase of the p>g
iron furnaces in blast as conclusive evidence of it. O cto
ber 1, 1893, was the date of greatest depression; on that
day the number of furnaces reported was only 114,
with a capacity of 73,895 tons per week. From that, the
lowest point, a slow increase started, continuing slugglish until February, when it became more marked;
in
March the
development was much more
decided, the total furnaces in blast on April 1 being
144,“■
with a weekly production of 126,732 tons— an in
crease of more than 26 per cent in number and over 71
per cent in capacity. Before April closed, however,
and while the business revival waB making such satis
factory progress, this labor trouble began. It will be re
membered that the coal strike was inaugurated April 21,
throwing out of employment about 150,000 men. How
speedily and how effectually that movement suppressed
and_destroyed all appearance of returning indusirial
activity is clearly shown by the fact that on the first of
May, ten days after the strike was begun, there
were only 127 furnaces in blast, yielding a p rodu c
tion weekly of 110,210 tons, and on the first day of
June this had been further decreased to 88 furnaces in
number, with a capacity of only 62,517 tuns.
Could a more graphic object lesson be presented of the
consequences of the strike, or indeed a better indication
cited of the disorganizing influence of any industrial dis
turbance, than these brief statements afford ?
It will
be noted by comparing the figures for the first of June
[V ol . LVIII,
with those for October 1, 1893, that the pig-iron fu r
naces in blast at the beginning of the current month
were 26 less in number and 11,378 tons less in the
weekly production than they were at the date of lowest
depression during the panic of last year.
That
comparison, it must be remembered, is but the evi
dence of the effect of this disturbing agency in a
single department of production, not in any degree
a measure of the extent of the interruption to
business it has caused.
To attempt to describe
with even an approach to accuracy the full
suspension
of
work which has resulted would
be impracticable. It is only where furnaces, factories
and the like have been absolutely closed or the running
of railroad trains has been curtailed, or when through
traffic returns we see the shortened business done,
that the results come to the knowledge of the general
public. The weekly railroad earnings since the strike
was ordered are very suggestive. For the fourth week
in April the loss was 1616 per cent; for May, that is
for the next four weeks, the loss was respectively,
beginning with the first week in the order given, 16-24
per cent, 18-10 per cent, 19-47 per cent, 17-66 per
cent; to-day we have for the first week of June a los3
of 21-98 per cent. I f our readers will look at the
record of our weekly statements, which we gave last
Saturday on page 985 running back to the third week of
August, he will see how suddenly with the strike came
the increase in these percentages, and how much
greater the loss has been since, than at any time pre
vious except for the last week of December when it
was 16-87 per cent.
Now that the strike is practically at an end we may
anticipate, in view of the facts we have given, a
certain though a slow recovery. We say slow, because
pulling down is always an easier and a quicker process
than building up. Besides, so long as the Senate con
tinues to discuss the tariff day after day without hav
ing voted upon a single item, as has been the case so
many days this week— a discussion, by the way, which
apparently is of advantage to no one, for it changes no
results— any very decided improvement in business can
not be anticipated. W e have heretofore taken the more
hopeful view that even the Senatorial deliberations
must have an end, and early in the week we were en
couraged to think the close would come quickly. We
venture no predictions now. Of course so long as this
delay continues, the strain among the mercantile
classes increases, the Treasury situation is aggravated
instead of relieved, little new enterprise is possible, and
nothing much better than extreme caution and a wait
ing condition of affairs can prevail.
It has been announced this week that Messrs. Brown
Brothers & Co. have purchased from the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad Company for account of Messrs.
Brown, Shipley & C o., London, $8,500,000 Baltimore &
Ohio first mortgage terminal 40 year 4£ per cent gold
bonds. Whether it has been this negotiation which
has affected gold exports this week is not obvious.
There .has been no material change in the nominal
rates for exchange.
It
is a fact,
however,
that the exports are relatively small, reaching
only $2,250,000 for the week and $200,000 from
Boston. We are informed that it is the purpose of the
banks to furnish hereafter the gold required for export.
As our Clearing-House institutions held last Saturday
100^ million dollars of that metal, besides over
119 million dollars in currency, they are fully
able to
provide
whatever is needed.

THE CHKONICLE.
Bureau
of
Statistics
yesterday issued another
month's foreign
trade figures, and the
results
published only add to the force of the re
marks we hare made on previous occasions with refer
ence to gold exports. These statements come out with
so great promptitude now that their usefulness has been
increased. It seems that the net merchandise exports
in May were $4,415,000 against a net import the
same month last year of $7,000,000; and as the
silver exports netted $2,987,000 this year against
$1,294,000 a year ago, the total favorable mer
chandise and silver balance in May, 1894, wa3 $7,402.000 against an unfavorable balance in May, 1893,
of $5,700,000 ; and yet last month we exported $23,124.000 of gold, and in May a year ago we exported
only $15,200,000. Since the first o f January 1894
(five months) the net exports of merchandise, gold and
silver have together reached $116,567,000 against a
net export for same period of 1893 of $3,253,000.
These are certainly wonderful contrasts. We give the
full trade statement at the close of our remarks on
foreign exchange. Foreign bankers seem to think now
that gold exports to Europe have about ceased for the
season.
Call loans representing bankers’ balances still rule at
the rate of 1 per cent at the Stock Exchange and, con
sidering the fact that there is a pressure upon this
branch of the market of idle funds from almost every
quarter, it is not surprising that there should he no
change. The banks and trust companies quote 14 per
cent. The average of call money for the week was
1 per cent and renewals were at thi3 figure. There
are no new features in time loans. Lenders are desirons of making short engagements and offer money
freely for periods under four months, while borrowers
who are in a position to make contracts prefer loans
which will carry them over the usual period of
stringency in the closing months of the year. The
business is small, mainly for the reason that com
mission houses can get all the accommodation they
require either in the call loan branch of the market or
at the banks, where their loans can stand undisturbed
for indefinite periods. It is suggested that in the
event of a decided business revival following the pass
age of the tariff bill, money that is now being offered
by merchants for want of employment in trade will be
withdrawn, and this may result in the establish
ment of better rates. Quotations for money on firstclass collateral are 1 per cent for thirty days, 1 4 per
cent for sixty days, 2 per cent for ninety days to four
months, 21 p ercen t for five months and 3 percent
for longer periods running to the end of February.
Commercial paper continues in good demand for firstclass, and the difficulty of obtaining such names, owing
to their scarcity and the active competition for them,
even at the low rates ruling, has induced some
o f the banks to withdraw from the paper market as
buyers and to coniine their business to discounting at
Vto 5 per cent for their best customers. Some of the
banks are doing a fair business re-discounting for their
correspondents in the interior, and some four months
paper with collateral and a bank endorsement has
been done at 44 per cent. Names are very closely
scrutinized by buyers in the market and none
but, the best are taken, and these command low
rate?. A line of four months commission house names
was sold this week at 2f per cent, but the grade was
very high, and that figure is not regarded as a fair
quotation for this class of paper. Rates are 24 per
1009
cent for choice acceptances,. 2J to 3 per cent fo r
sixty to ninety-day endorsed bills receivable, 3 per cent
for four months commission house names, 34 to 4 per
cent for prime and 44 to 54 per cent for good four to
six months single names.
The death of Muley Hassan, Sultan of Morocco,
which wa3 announced on Tuesday, threatened pol
itical complications in Europe until arrangements were
made by the Powers unitedly to prevent a civil war.
The effect of this news was to cause an upward
reaction in English consols on Thursday. The Bank
of England minimum remains at 2 per cent, notwith
standing the further large increase in bullion this week,
and the proportion of reserve to liabilities is now 70‘ 63
per cent, the largest ever recorded. The cable reports
discounts of sixty-day bank bills in London \ of 1 per
cent, while ninety-day bills are f of 1 per cent. The
open market rate at Paris is 14 per cent, at Berlin it is
If to I f per cent and at Frankfort it is also I f to I f
per cent. According to our special cable from London
the Bank of England gained £783,903 bullion during
the week, and held at the close of the week £37,844,493.
Our correspondent further advises us that the gain was
due to receipts from the interior of G-reat Britain
of £108,000 and imports of £676,000, of which
£383,000 were bought in the open market, £233,000
came from Australia and £60,000 were sundries.
The mark-'t.for foreign exchange is very narrow; it
continues to be insufficiently supplied with hills for
current remittance, and the deficiency has to be made
good with gold exports. But, as already stated, bankers
believe that there are indications that these shipments
will soon cease. One feature this week has been the
offering, for the first time in nearly three months, of
long sterling, drawn in the expectation that it can be
covered at a profit within sixty days. This is an indi
cation that bankers anticipate lower rates a3 the result
of the ending of the suspense regarding the tariff. The
offerings of these bills were promptly taken, but it is
thought probable that more will come upon the market.
There was no change in the tone for exchange until
Wednesday , although bills for $1,000,000 gold which
was shipped on Tuesday were sold ou Monday and
there was abo a fair amount of commercial drafts
marketed ou that day.
On Wednesday the tone was
easier, partly because of the sale of long sterling
above noted,’ and the market also felt the effect
of
offerings of
bills
against
$750,000
gold
engaged for
shipment on T hursday; on the
following day the market became steadier by reason of
the absorption of the gold bills. Yesterday there was
no change, the tone being firm ; $500,000 gold was en
gaged for shipment to-day. The following shows the rates
of exchange posted by leading drawers during the week:

The report of the Agricultural Department at
Washington for the 1st of June shows on the whole a
pretty satisfactory condition of the country's crops.
W inter wheat improved during the month, and the
average is now given at 83'2 per cent, against 81-4 on
May 1st, and against only 75-5 on June 1st last year.
F or spring wheat the average is reported as high
as 88, which compares with 86‘4 at the same
date last y e a r; Nebraska however shows a very
low condition, only 44, and in South Dakota
the average is 79 ; for North Dakota it is 97, for W is
consin 96, for Minnesota 99, for Iowa 90 and for
Washington 89. In the winter-wheat States the aver
ages generally are quite light outside of Kansas and
California. In Kansas the condition is given at only
57, but even that is better than a year ago, when the
average was only 47, and besides this the acreage in that
State is larger. In California the condition is re
ported at 60, as against 72 in 1893. The following
shows the averages for the leading winter-wheat States.

Thus the average for the whole country is 84-7 the
present year against only 78-8 last year. But it should
be noted that though the condition is better the acre
age is nearly 5 per cent smaller than last year, and in
fact the breadth sown to this cereal is the smallest for
many years past. Hence while the promise is for a
good crop there is no likelihood of a very large crop.
As concerns the other crops, their comparative condi
tion is shown in the following.

It is of course too early yet to look for any improve
ment in railroad earniDgs. A fter the coal miners shall
have returned to work a change for the better can be
depended on. We give on subsequent pages to-day
our review of the gross earnings for the month of May,
and the showing, as there pointed out, is the most un
favorable we have yet had since our industries have fallen
into a state of depression. For the first week of June
the exhibit is still worse, the decrease from last year,
according to our preliminary statement, being 21-98 per
cent. Our tabulations do not cover any of the New Eng
land roads, but that the lines in that section are suffering
hardly less severely than those in other sections is
evident from the action of the board of directors of
the New Y ork New Haven & Hartford Railroad in
reducing their quarterly dividend from a basis of 10 per
cent per annum to 8 per cent. We are justified in
assuming that this action would not have been
taken unless the course of the company’ s earnings
had made it unavoidable, and in the circumstances
it was of course a wise step. The Illinois Central re
turn for April has been issued this week, and it shows
gross of $1,347,425, against $1,542,998, and net of
$273,342 against $383,711. For the fiscal year since the
1st of July however the company is $1,488,979 ahead
in its gross earnings and $1,198,128 ahead in its net
earnings, these gains reflecting the special benefits which
the road derived from the Fair. The Union Pacific
for April has $758,250 loss in gross and $389,409 loss in
net. The Louisville New Albany & Chicago for A pril
has gross of $230,358 against $266,791, and net of
$75,629 against $98,512; the Elgin Joliet & Eastern
gross of $82,976 against $79,780 and net of $25,258
against $11,260; the Flint & Pere Marquette gross of
$190,727 against $263,615, and net of $46,271 against
$78,059; and the Ohio River gross of $49,229 against
$65,152, and net of $13,284 against $19,522. For the
month of May the West Virginia Central & Pittsburg
reports gross of $56,716 against $105,606, and net of
$16,175 against $37,580, the heavy reductions of course
being due to the coal miners’ strike. The Nashville
Chattanooga & St. Louis for May reports $55,730 de
crease in gross and $19,997 decrease in net.
The following gives the week’s movements of money
to and from the interior by the New Y ork banks.

But according to the foregoing
P E N S IO N E X P E N D IT U R E S A N D THE COST
figures the combined cost of the State governments,
OF G OVERNM ENT.
A t the present time, when the Government revennes
are falling so decidedly short of the Government ex
penditures, an inquiry into the cost of government is
peculiarly opportune. As a result of the intense
depression in business from which mercantile and
financial interests are suffering, both Customs and ex
cise receipts have materially decreased. Most persons
are cognizant of this one fact in the situation and
hence are disposed to think that it offers an adequate
explanation of the existing embarrassed condition of
the Government— that there is no need of going out
side o f or beyond this great and serious unfavorable
element. But admitting that revenues have fallen off
enormously, can it be affirmed that these revenues are
not even novr sufficiently large to defray the cost of
conducting our national affairs provided our laws were
framed in accordance with correct principles so as
rigidly to exclude baseless and unjustifiable expendi
tures ?
A Census bulletin has recently been issued which is
of great aid in answering these queries. The facts
have not ye: attracted attention, but they throw a flood
of light upon the whole subject. The bulletin we
refer to relates to the receipts and expenditures of the
national, State and local governments, and ha3 been
prepared by Mr. J. K. Upton, the special agent of the
Eleventh Census in charge of that subject. W e are
not now concerned with the details, but simply with
the grand aggregates as summarized in the following
statement as given on the first page of the bulletin in
question.

These results are deserving of very careful con
sideration, The total revenue collected in this coun
try under the authority of Government is thus found
to be over u thousand million dollars— in exact figures,
1,040 million dollars. Bat it is not the mere magni
tude o f the total that causes one to pause, for in every
thing that the word implies this is a large country.
What docs arrest attention is the distribution of the
revenues as between the national and the State and
local governments. It appears that out of the aggre
gate of 1,040 million- of taxes exacted from the people
of the United States in the Ceusaa year 1890, no less
than 461 millions were imposed by the National Gov
ernment— that is, over 44 per cent of the taxes which
in one form or another our people were obliged to pay
In that year were collected by and under authority
of the United States. This is a striking and a
startling fact. Consider what it means. Onrs is a
very simple form of government. Its functions are
comparatively few. It is not charged with the care of
educational matters, nor has it control of the police—
these being delegated to the State and the municipality.
N or are we a military power with a huge military es
tablishment to maintain. And yet the taxes levied by
the National Government took 461 millions of the
people's money in a single year. Much has been said
o f the costliness and inefficiency of our local govern
ments—-how ‘ 'r in g " control and political trickery are
adding to local expense accounts and increasing the
the Territorial governments, the county governments,
the municipalities and the other subdivisions of local
authority— all these combined, with their varied and
manifold functions and duties, took from the earnings
of the people in the Census year hut little more than
did the National Government alone— that is, they took
579 millions, while the United States, with its few and
limited duties, took 461 millions.
It will no doubt he said that the revenues collected
by the National Government in the Census year were
in excess of its needs, that they left a surplus of over
100 million dollars. But that does not alter the fact
that the people had to pay them and had to hear the
burden of the same. Excessive revenues in their way
are hardly less objectionable than deficient revenues,
and we all know what unfortunate results attended the
locking up of enormous sums of money in Government
vaults in those days. But let us see how much more
favorable to the Federal Government the compari
sons would be if instead of figuring on the basis of
the revennes we should figure on the basis of the ex
penditures. Here is a statement of the expenditures,
after the same form as the statement of the revennes
above.

Thus, including the National Government the grand
aggregate of expenditures in 1890 was roughly 916 mil
lion dollars, and of this the amount taken by the
National Government was as much as 352 million dol
lars. The proportion is somewhat smaller than in the
other case, and yet is nearly 40 per cent of tfie whole.
Out of the remaining 60 per cent there was paid all the
expenses of the State and local governments of every
description. What this latter comprehends will he un
derstood when it is recalled that it covers the cost of
the fire, health and police departments, of public street
lighting, of parks, of penal and reform institutions, of
educational and charitable institutions including p ub
lic schools, of the judiciary, of the legislative and ex
ecutive departments, of the State militia, of the mainte
nance of water-works,roads, sewers, &c., as well as the re
quirements for interest. Only 60 per cent of the total
expenses went for these multifarious purposes, which
are usually assumed to embrace the outlays which hear
with especial weight upon the people, while 40 per cent
went for the comparatively few and limited purposes
of the National Government. The disparity in the pro
portionate cost of the two kinds o f outlays is certainly
very great.
The aggregate of 916 millions covers the postal ex
penditures, which are in great part reimbursed by postal
receipts. Eliminating these the per capita cost of
maintaining the national, State and local governments,
including the schools and all other expenditures, is
found to have been $13 65. The National Govern
ment total, even with the postal expenditures excluded,
still remains very close to three hundred million dol
lars, or not far from $5 00 per head of population in the
Census year. In other words, of the $13 65 per capita
cost of all government expenditures nearly five dollars
1012
THE CHRONICLE.
($4 76) went to defray the cost of the National
Government. It has been a popular impression that
only local government expenditures were of much con
sequence and especially burdensome— that it was in
those departments that lack of economy was chiefly
manifest— but in the light o! the results here submitted
opinions must be revised, since, as we see, the outlays
incurred by the National Government form a large
part o f the whole.
Proceeding a step farther in our analysis we find
that the ordinary expenditures of the National Govern
ment are not on a very extended scale, the cost of Con
gress being about 6-J- million dollars, of the executive
department 11£ million dollars, of the national judiciary
million dollars, of foreign intercourse 1| million dol
lars, &c., &c. Bat for pensions the expenditures were
about 107 million dollars, this form ing over one-third
o f the entire expenditures of the National Government,
exclusive of the postal service. In addition the expen
ditures of the "War and Navy departments aggregated
70 million dollars more, making for these three items
over 177 millions, which therefore constituted nearly 60
per cent of the entire national expenditures. As a fit
tin g contrast to these large outlays, and serving to
emphasize their magnitude, we may note that the total
outlays for all our public schools in the same year were
but 139 millions.
These facts make it evident that even in the Census
year the expenditures o f the National Government, as
compared with the expenditures of the local govern
ments, were on an exceedingly lavish scale. B at since
then they have been further materially augmented.
Th e large surplus revenues which the Government was
collecting with the resulting heavy accumulations of
cash in the Treasury, had their usual effect in beget
ting prodigality and wastefulness. W ith one hand
Congress cut down the revenues, with the other it in
creased the appropriations. Both operations have had
part in bringing about the present situation.
And
obviously, except for the application o f this doable
process in extinguishing the surplus, the revenues of
the Government would not to-day be falling so heavily
short of the expenditures. The fact should not be
overlooked, either, that while it is true that business
depression has very seriously curtailed the revenues,
Some of the sources of revenue previously existing were
entirely cut off by the law of 1890-—notably the revenue
from sugar— so that aggregate Government receipts
decreased after 1890, even before the depression came.
W ith regard to the augmentation in the expenditures,
through the increase in Congressional appropriations,
that can he shown in no better or more graphic way
than by the following statement, which covers merely,
the three classes of expenditures we are considering in
this article. These figures of course are not taken
from the Census bulletin.

bors. The United States is supposed to occupy a pecu
liarly fortunate position, inasmuch as it has no large
standing army, and therefore is not under the neces
sity of raising large amounts to maintain its military
establishment. Yet, as will be seen from the forego
ing, our expenditures in the late year for the War and
Navy departments, and for pensions, did not fall much
short o f a quarter of a thousand million dollars. I f we
take the last four years together, the expenditures in
this way reach the enormous aggregate of 835 million
dollars.
As contrasted therefore with the burdens resting
upon the European nations, are our burdens a whit less
onerous ? Is it net high time that a corrective should
be applied ? The pension payments especially are reach
ing at once the proportions of a national calamity and a
national scandal. W e have already seen that in theCensus year these pension payments amounted to 107
millions, while the requirements for the public schools
in the same year through the whole length and breadth
of the land were but little more than 139 million dol
lars. In the year preceding (1889) the pension pay
ments had been only 88 million dollars; for 1893, as the
above shows, they amounted to 159 million dollars,
being an addition in the four years of 71 m illion
dollars. L ook now at the follow ing remarkable record
of the number of pensioners on the roll.

In 1889 (twenty-four years after the close of the Civil

short space of four years. In the five years from 1889
to 1893, both inclusive, the amount paid out for pen

months o f the current fiscal year up to the 1st of Jun c
130 millions more have been paid in this way, m aking
743 millions for a period of less than six years. Th e

per cent. The Illinois Central, as already stated, has
$285,844 decrease, but that is in comparison with the
extra large earnings of 1893 caused by the Fair, from
which that road derived special benefits; compared
with May 1892 the loss is only $4,G91, showing that
the ordinary revenues of the road have been strikingly
well maintained. The Great Northern must also be
considered to have done well. Including the Montana
Central and the Eastern of Minnesota, it has only $102,052 decrease, though the northern Pacific, as we have
seen, has over seven hundred thousand dollars decrease.
The company is operating a larger mileage than in 1893,
and no doubt some traffic delayed by the strike of the
road’s employes in the preceding month came forward
in May.
A t Chicago the receipts for . the even month wer e
1-J- million bushels less than in May 1893., and at that
point there was a falling off also in the flour receipts;
on the other hand, the live-stock movement appears to
have been larger than in 1893, the receipts of hogs
having been 573,187 head against 463,897 head in 1893;
of all kinds of live stock the deliveries were 23,459 car

We have spoken above of the great falling off in the
wheat movement in the West. The receipts of oats, of
barley and of rye at the same points were also slightly
leas than a year ago, while on the other hand the corn
movement was a trifle larger and there was also a gain in
the deliveries of flour, though this latter occurred
chiefly at Duluth. In the following we show the grain
movement in our usual form for the five weeks ending

As regards the cotton movement in the ^South, that
is not much of a factor at this time of the year. How
ever, such as it is, it was smaller than a year ago, the
gross shipments overland having been only 51,136
bales against 73,325 bales, and the receipts at the
Southern ports 89,895 bales against 102,934 bales.

When we consider the roads by groups, we find the
heaviest ratio of loss in the group of roads running
through the Middle and Middle Western States. It is
Bin,
here where coal mining is on the largest scale and here
( b u sh .)
where coal plays the greatest part in the traffic of the

The Southern group has on the whole done better
than any other, the decrease for the leading roads
being only 15-41 per cent— in amount $ j11,120.
The small loss on the N orfolk & Western is explained
by the fact that a3 the miners on its line kept at work
and the demand for coal was urgent, the road was able
greatly to increase its output.

NEW
Among the events o ' the week some of the more im
portant have been direstly connected with A frica. The
arrangement come to bitweea Great Britain and K in g
Leopold of Belgium, as sovereign of the Congo Free
State, continues to be a causa of very considerable irrita
tion ia Fr trice, and especially in French colonial circles.,
For the moment, however, the general public mind has
four.d larger occupation in the unexpected death of the
■Sultan of -Morocco. The death of the Sultan and the
Congo agreement are of the greater consequence that
both are liable to prove disturbing elements in general
European politics. The himger for African territory
which manifested itself so fiercely some few years ago,
and which seemed to have abated, has been revived in
appearance at least; and the jealousies of the European
Powers have added an element of bitterness to the*
scramble. I f Morocco shall succeed in settling her
own aSairs without the necessity of interference from
without, there is the less to fear in that quarter. But if
civil war should necessitate intervention, occupation
and partition, with all their attendant troubles, may
be regarded almost as certainties.
However events may shape them3elve3 in M orocco,
the difficulty which has arisen in Central Africa and
through this new Anglo-Belgian arrangement, is not
likely to be got over without a good deal of diplomatic
fencing, and possibly not without the aid of a Court o f
Arbitration, In itself the actual cause of trouble is a,
matter of comparatively trifling importance. In the
arrangement which was entered into some few years ago
when a sort of partition was made of African territory,
l-,1018
THE CHRONICLE,
so muoh being set apart for Great Britain, so much
for Germany, so much for France, so much for Italy,
and bo much for the Congo Free State, Great Britain
either found it impossible or was lax in her efforts to
secure what it had been confidently expected she would
secure, a broad and continuous tract of land from Cape
Tow n in the south to Cairo and Alexandria
in the north. The arrangement which has been com
pleted between Great Britain and the sovereign of the
Congo Free State accomplishes what was then left
undone or rectifies the mistake then committed.
Since the original arrangement was made, up until the
present, all communication between British possessions
in the southern half of the Continent and the British
sphere of influence in East Central A frica was c o m
pletely cut off by the Congo Free State and German
East Africa, these territories occupying between them
the entire central breadth of the Continent. The new
or rectified arrangement opens up this desired way
o f communication, the necessary territory having
been obtained by lease not from Germany but from
the Congo State.
The nature of the agreement will best be understood
if reference is made to some of the terms of the treaty
signed at Brussels last month by the representatives of
the British Government and of the Congo State.
Article I II of the new agreement reads as follows: The
Independent Congo State grants under lease to Great
Britain, to be administered when occupied under the
conditions and for the period hereafter determined, a
strip of territory 25 kilometres in breadth, extending
from the most northerly post on Lake Tanganyika,
which is included in it, to the most southerly point on
Lake Albert Edward. Under the same conditions
Great Britain in another article grants a lease to the
sovereign of the Independent Congo State of all the ter
ritories bounded by a line starting from a point situ
ated on the west shore of Lake Albert, immediately to
the south of Mahagi, thence following the watershed
between the Congo and the Nile in a northerly and
northwesterly direction. This mutual arrangement is
to last during the reign of His Majesty Leopold II.
sovereign of the Independent Congo State, and at the
expiration of his reign, with some important modifica
tions, which cannot be given here in detail, “ so long as
the Congo territories as an independent State or as a
Belgian colony shall remain under the sovereignty of
his successors.” Great Britain recognizes that she does
not “ seek to acquire any political rights in the strip of
territory granted to her on lease between Lake Tan
ganyika and Lake Albert Edward other than those
which are in conformity with the present agreement;”
and K in g Leopold makes a similar recognition with
regard to the territories ceded to him in the Nile Basin.
Permission is given the British Government or to any
company authorized by the British Government to
■construct through Congo territory a line of telegraph
connecting the British territories in South Africa with
the British sphere of influence on the N ile, providing
that the Congo State shall have facilities for connect
ing the line with its own system. Mr. Rhodes,
it will be seen, will thus have ample scope for
carrying out his Trans-Continental Telegraph scheme.
Altogether, looked at without
prejudice, there
is nothing in the arrangement which ought to
be offensive or disagreeable to the other Powers who
nave claims on Central African Territory. It has the
appearance of being a very harmless and natural
attempt at the rectification of frontiers.
[Vol.LVIIL
As has been mentioned above, France has taken the
matter very seriously ; and, as many think, public sen
timent has become unnecessarily sore on the subject.
Some of the French papers nave gone so far as to call
it a perfidious arrangement wantonly made for the
injury of French interests. The French Minister for
Foreign Affairs has produced documents which cover
African treaty arrangements from 1884 up until the
present time to show that, in Eastern Africa and in
Central Africa alike, Great Britain has assumed rights
to which she had no just claim, and has distributed
territory and made treaties, at her own will, when she
ought to have consulted the other Powers. It is note
worthy that the other Powers do not take the matter
so seriously as France. Germany has had far stronger
grounds of complaint than France, on account of this
Anglo-Belgian agreement.
It has been seen that in
securing a continuous line of communication between
the British possessions in South Africa and the
British sphere of influence more to the north, territory
must be obtained either from the Independent Congo
State or from Germany. The territory having been
obtained from the former, Germany is brought face to
face with Great Britain, by far the most aggressive
power, at present, in Africa, and also for various rea
sons the most necessitous. Collision with the Inde
pendent Congo State wa3 not to be apprehended. Col
lision with Great Britain may not be regarded as at all
to be greatly dreaded.
But the presence of a strong
and aggressive power like Great Britain is always a re
straint; and Germany may feel her movements some
what hindered.
But Germany has so far shown no
special concern about the matter. There have been re
marks in some of the newspapers, but not a word from
the Government.
That France should show so much
irritation in the premises it may not be difficult to ex
plain. To justify it might not be so easy. It is noto
rious that France had never any claim or title to the
territory leased to Great Britain by the Congo State.
There is no evidence that any French soldier has ever
assumed to take possession of the special region. Such
occupation as has been effected was done by the Congo
State.
The territory which has been handed over in
lease by the one party and the other was legitimately
the property of the respective lessors.
But French
ambition, although it had accomplished nothing,
pointed in that particular direction; and now that this
ambition is effectually checked there is mortification of
feeling.
This, however, is not the only cause— nor is it the
principal 'cause— of French irritation.
Since the
British Government decided to keep Uganda it has
attached more importance to the southern provinces of
E gypt; and evidence is not wanting that it is prepared
when the proper time comes to reclaim for the Khedive
the entire Upper Nile region. The British flag floats
at Wadelai; and Captain Baert is in occupation o f
Lado and of other stations between the watershed of
the Congo and the Nile Valley. W orking in a friendly
way and more or les3 for a common purpose, British
and Belgian influence will help to determine the fate
of those regions. The new treaty does not encourage
the hope which the French indulge that the British
will soon find it convenient to evacuate Egypt. This
is the sore-point. It remains to be seen how far the
present state of feeling against the British will carry
the French Government and people. A demand may
be made for a conference or a court of arbitration. It
is doubtful whether the British Government is in a

VERSUS SILVER
C E R T IF IC A TES.
In the follow ing letter Mr. George S. Coe discusses the
proposition to substitute legal-tender notes for silver certify
kales. Mr. Coe's high reputation as a writer on financial
matter! commands attention for whatever he has to m y , and
hi* views in this install-e w ill no doubt interest many of our
reader*:
N e w Yoke , June 18, 1894,
3". Y . :
D ear S ir : 1 have read, as you r iuesU-1. the letter o f Mr,
Biwail recommending an issue oi “ legal-tender notes to an
amount sufficient to redeem and cancel the silver certificates
and Treasury notes and for retirement o f gold certificates,”
I can only rut in reply that this seefa* to me neither more nor
less than a plan to convert our whole national debt into the
permanent f o t t a of flat or greenback notes, perpetually re
deemable, and therefore necessarily re issuable for ail time to
com e.
*

Governments have certainly no creative power more than
have individuals. Numbers cannot change their essential
character. Be they few or many, they can supply their needs
only by borrowing from those who have first secured to chemMtves the independent capital, and therefore have it to lend
to other*. Read capital is an existing fact. It cannot be com
manded into being by any human power because it is aloae
the product of antecedent industry. The only result o f creat
ing fictitious debt must be to deceive the public by enabling
them thought!* -sly to expend what they do not possess, thus
impoverishing the nation to a degree certain to end in many
time# the cost o f toe name amount of capital legitimately bor
row ed with mt* rest upon its value.
*
*
*
The truth is, our national obligations in the diverse forms
of currency existing already exceed every legitimate demand.
They have grown t ito exc- j-iv e magnitude and variety, car
ried, if we carefully study their inevitable results, at tne ut
most cow, to the country.
It is not more currency but
greater econom y that we need—economy restricted by real
ability. It •ould be infinitely better, and in the end cheaper,
to recognim every ooligatioa of the Government based upon
ftui vat-!-- reto ived for value given than to prolong the pres
ent ptoceiM » f waste and destruction.
I •annot ih-r* ; ,r> sec any good result in Mr. El well 8 sug
gest! in . If you think it necessary to call the Finance O juim i'tc* together t >consider it more niiturely, please do so. A s
advised at present, I do not.
Yours truly,

|From our own eorrespoodent.J
L on d o n , Saturday, June 2, 1894.
During the week ended Wednesday night gold amounting
to FI ,887,000 was sent into the Bank of England, raising the
! total stock to somewhat over 36 millions sterling. The largest
j amount ever before held was under 35% millions sterling, so
that the present holding exceeds the largest in the past by
considerably more than a quarter of a million sterling. And
■ the metal is still pouring in in large quantities from all parts
j of the world. India is now sending considerable amounts,
|
Arrangements have been made in Bombay to ship during the
present month over half a million sterling ; and bankers in
Bombay, in a good position to judge, estimate that the ship
ments for some months to come will be larger still. Every
thing, therefore, points to a long period of abundant and
cheap money. Short loans in fact are being freely made at
% per cent, and the discount rate in the open market is barely
% per cent. It should be added that the reserve of the Bank
of England is now very nearly 28 millions sterling, which is
by far the largest reserve ever held. It is worthy of notice
that while the total note issue of the bank exceeds SO millions
sterling, the actual amount of notes in circulation is under &
millions sterling, so that more than half the notes in issue t
held by the Bank.

The Money Market and Financial Situation.—The re
ported ending of the coal miners’ strike was received here
with a grain of allowance as to ultimate results. But the
miners can hardly resist the terms of compromise agreed to
at Columbus on the 11th by their own officers, and this is
doubtless the beginning of the end of the whole disturbance,
and the belief in this has had its influence in helping to re
store confidence and Impart a more buoyant tone to the markets.
The Senate has made some progress with the tariff bill
during the week, and while there is much criticism of the re
sult of its work by both parties, it will be of immense benefit
to the country at large to have the matter disposed of. Gold
shipments have fallen off and there is some expectation of
their early cessation altogether; so with the tariff bill settled,
the strikes ended, and the shipments of gold stopped, there
would seem to be no reasonable excuse for a further continu
ance of the extreme depression which has characterized all
branches of business for many months past.
At the Stock Exchange business has been prejudiced
somewhat by the decline in two of the leading specialties—
American Sugar and Chicago Gas. It is unsatisfactory to
general dealers in securities that the market should
be affected by two prominent stocks about which the
public can get no satisfactory or detailed information, and
also that in the present instance the action or non-action of
Congress in the one case and the Attorney-General of the
State of Illinois in the other should furnish the levers by
which these two stocks are worked up and down through
manipulation.
The open market rate for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals has been 1 per cent, all the busi
ness being at that figure. To-day rates on call were 1 per cent.
Prime commercial paper quoted at 2% to 3 per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday
showed an increase in bullion of £783,903 and the percentage
o f reserve to liabilities was 70’63, against 69 73 last week; the
discount rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of
France shows an increase of 2,900,000 francs in gold and
a decrease 1,800,000 francs in silver.
The New York City Clearing-House banks in their statement
of June 9 showed a decrease in the reserve held of *1,361,400
and a surplus over the required reserve of $76,918,250, against
$77,965,100 the previous week.

Foreign Exchange.—The exchange market remained dull
and firm early in the week, but has been easier in tone the
past few days. This is probably owing to the purchases of se
curities for foreign account, including some new bonds. The
demand for gold to ship has fallen off, and $500,000 was re
turned to the Sub-Treasury by one firm that had engaged a
considerable amount for export; there is also talk among
bankers of the shipmenis soon ceasing. Exports for the week,
including to-morrow’s, amount to $2,250,000, with probably
$200,000 more from Boston.
To-day actual rates of exchange were as follow s; Bankers’
Sixty days sterling, 4 87%@4 87%; demand, 4 88%@4§8%;

State and Railroad Bonds.—The sales of State bonds at the
Board include $105,000 of Tenn. settl. 3s at 79%-S0%, §92,000
Va. funded debt, 2-3s of 1991, at 60-59%; §10,0u0 Va. 6s
defd. tr. receipts, stpd., at 7%-7%; $24,000 Ala. Class “ A ”
at 102; $3,500 La. consol. 4s at 97%; $10,000 Ark. 7s, L. R, P. B.
& N. O., at 6.
Railroad bonds have been a little more active, and the A t
chison 1st. 4s led the market on Thursday with a sharp rise to
77 on good buying, which was supposed to be partly for Lon
don account. The reported agreement of the Committee to
leave the Atchison 4s undisturbed in the reorganization was
a sufficient reason for the advance in these bonds, as they now
carry nearly 4 per cent of accrued interest; the proposal
to make the 2nd mortgage bonds incomes was also the cause
for a decline in the class “ A ” bonds to 28%.
The
Rock Island & Pacific debenture 5s have sold fairly around
91-91%; Mo. Kan. & Tex. 1st 4s, now ex-coupon, are in de
mand at 79%; Nickle-plate 1st 4s at 100%; Northern Pacific
1st coup, close at 111%, as the July interest is to be paid;
Colorado Midland 4s have declined to 25 bid under their pros
pects in the Atchison reorganization, and the Atlantic &
Pacific 4s are quoted at 45-47%.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market
has been irregular, as usual, and the principal feature has been
the weakness of the past two days in Sugar and Chicago Gas.
The dealings in these stocks constitute a large proportion of
the dealings at the Board, and both have declined, though for
different reasons. The trading in Sugar is supposed to be
based in some way upon the Washington dispatches, but as
the price frequently goes in the opposite direction from what
might naturally be expected, it is a fair conclusion that the
buying or selling by parties having inside information is
the most potent influence. After selling on Wednesday up to
102% ex-dividend, the stock declined to 96% to-day and
closes at 97%. Chicago Gas has weakened under the reports
that Atty. Cenl. Moloney will now proceed more actively
with his quo w arra nto case, and how far the pool transactions
are affected bv these reports the public can hardlytell; thestock
fell from 79% to 75% and closes at 77%. Western Union Tele
graph ha9 been steady under the exhibit of diminished earnings
and the showing of a small surplus for the fiscal year ending
June 30. Burlington, St. Paul and Rock Island are barely
steady on moderate transactions. Union Pacific was weak
without any new development as to the company’s affairs.
General Electric held its advance tolerably well, with small
dealings, but closes lower at 36%. Am. Tobacco closes at 87,
against 87 last week, National Lead at 38% ex-div. against
40% and L. I. Traction at 15% against 15.

GENERAL INVESTMENT NEWS.
fVOL.
LVIU,
and the Farmers’ Loan & Trust Co. of New York were: Of
series A, $1,068,000; series B, $674,000; series C, $748,000, a
total of $2,490,000 out of the entire issue of $3,051,000. Bond
holders who may hereafter wish to deposit with the com
mittee can do so on such terms as the committee may prescribe.
More than a majority of the bonds being now in control of
the committee, it will proceed with the formulation of a plan
of reorganization.
Central Railroad & Banking Co. of Georgia.—The ThomasRyan Reorganization Committee, it is said, have united the
various interests in a plan of reorganization which will shortly
be made public. The United States Circuit Court of Appeals in
the Fifth Judicial District has affrmed (in the suit of Rowena
Clark) the right of the Richmond Terminal Companv to the
ownership and control of its majority interest in the Georgia
Central, which will now descend to the successor company,
the Southern Railway Company.
Mr. Henry P. Talmadge, 68 William Street, and others, are
a committee acting ia the interests of the holders of the cer
tificates of indebtedness.
Charlotte Columbia & Augusta—The Maryland Trust
Company, Mr. J. Willcox Brown, President, will begin its
business career withafinancial operation involving $2,000,000.
The company has organized a syndicate of B iltimore and New
York capitalists for $2,000,000 to underwrite a proposition for
the extension af the 7 per cent first mortgage bonds of the
Charlotte Columbia & Augusta Railroad. These bonds are due
January 1, 1895. The proposition of the syndicate is to ex
tend this mortgage for fifteen years from maturity, or until
January 1, 1910, offering in exchange for the existing mort
gage bonds similar bonds bearing interest at 5 per cent.
Holders of the present bonds who decline to make the ex
change will have their bonds redeemed at maturity. The ex
change would enable holders of existing bonds to continue
their investment at the lower rate of interest.
Chicago Sb Paul Minneapolis & Omaha.—At the annual
stockholders’ meeting of this company, the old board of di
rectors and the old officer? were re-elected. The regular semi
annual dividend of 3}.{ p.c. on the preferred stock was declared
payable Aug. 20. In accordance with the notice to security
holders printed in the annual report of the company for the
year ending Dec. 31, published early in the year, semi-annual
dividend periods for the preferred stock will hereafter be ap
proximately upon Feb. 20 and Aug 20 of each year, instead of
Jan. 20 and July 20 as formerly, and the transfer books will
be closed on the last days of July and January instead of
June and December.
Kings County Elevated.—The following information has
been furnished the Ch ronicle : “ The project of readjustment of
second mortgage bond indebtedness proposed in the spring of
1893 having been found inadequate tomeet thealteredconditions
of the business of thecompany resulting from the subsequently
developed competition of trolley lines and from the general
financial depression of 1893, a more radical adjustment be
came necessary and was entered upon later in rhe year, and
now promises to be soon consummated. The main features
of this pending plan are the substitution of long-time noneumulative six per cent income debentures for the entire
original issue of second mortgage bonds with one year’s in
terest thereon; the exchange of outstanding coupon deben
tures for a cumulative six per cent second mortg. income
bond of a series B and the sale of a further issue of $1,000,000
of such income bonds of a series A with the proceeds of
which to provide for floating debt, for the current deficiency
in first, mortgage interest, and for contingent obligations in
the future, thus leaving no fixed charges against the com
pany above those of the first mortgages. The completion of
the Fulton Road to the city line now about accomplished
and the consolidation of this road with the Kings County
Elevated, are also parts of the same plan of readjustment.”
New York New Haven & Hartford.—The quarterly divi
dend of the New York New Haven & Hartford Railroad was
reduced at the meeting of tne directors, and it was unani
mous^ voted to make the quarterly dividend 2 per cent in
stead of 2}/< per cent as heretofore. President C. P. Clark
.said: “ Our gross earniags for the last tea months have
fallen off nearly 9 per cent, and have not justified the last
three quarterly dividends paid. The directors have drawn
upon the company’s surplus, hoping for an improvement in
business. June 30 will close the fiscal year, and consequently
this dividend must be charged against another year’s earnings.
Our directors are conservative and do not assume any larger
wisdom about the future than their neighoors, but they do
not anticipate a speedy resumption of commercial activity.
There is no more accurate thermometer of the general pros
perity than the gross earnings of railroads. All the com
pany’s lines show the effect of the diminished output of New
England factories, and it is the last 10 per cent gross that
makes the greatest net, especially in passenger business. Ex
penses have been reduced, but ctnnot be made to correspond
to the loss in gross receipts without impariug the usefulness
of the road in serving the public, and by reducing the wages
of employes, neither of which onr directors are ready to do,
and therefore it is prudent to reduce the rate to the extent
which the general prostration of business seems to require.”
New York Stock Exchange—New Securities Listed.—The
Governing Committee of the New York Stock Exchange have
added to the lists for dealings the following :
Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe.—The Reorganization Com
mittee expects to announce its plan early next week. At a
meeting of the committee on the 12th it was decided to send
the details to London, Amsterdam and Frankfort in order to
secure co-operation. The plan will provide for the issue of a
new $30,000,000 second mortgage for improvements, at the
rate of $3,000,000 a year for 10 years. The 1st mortgage 4 p sr
cent bonds will not be disturbed. The “ A” and “ B” bonds
will be changed into incomes, with interest to be payable only
if earned. The assessment on the common stock will not
exceed $12 per share, and for the cash paid on this assessment
income bonds or pref. stock will be given. The committee, at
its meeting, fully discussed the plan, but final action will not
be taken until next week. There are certain details still to be
determined by the committee which prevent the formal
issuance of the plan at the moment. The London, Amsterdam
and Frankfort committees are working harmoniously with
the New York committee, and the plan when issued will bear
the endorsement of all committees. Details in connection
with the Atlantic & Pacific and Colorado Midland companies
are not yet ready. Mr. Stephen Little has already entered
upon his examination of the accounts of the Atchison system.
Dow, Jones & Co. say : “ We have learned the following
additional details concerning the Atchison plan : It has been
decided to give the new income bonds voting power until 5
per cent has been paid on them for three successive years.
The total issue of income bonds will be $110,000,000. While
a $12 assessment on the stock will be named it will be called
in five instalments extending over a period of about six
months. If the earnings should improve to warrant a smaller
assessment some of the instalments may not be called. In
come bonds at par will be given for the assessment. The As
and Bs will get income bonds. Colorado Midland 4s will also
be asked to take income bonds. Atlantic & Pacific 4s will be
given the $8,8U0,0n0 A. & P. bonds in Atchison treasury and
for the balance will receive a first mortgage on the A. & P.
lands. The $80,000,000 second mortgages for improvements
cannot be issued in excess of $3,000,000 in any one year. The
reduction in fixed charges alone is sufficient, it is claimed, to
permit, in an average year, the payment of 1 per cent on the
income bonds, assuming also that the full $30,000,000 2ds were
all issued.”
On the 15th it was also said that the Atchison committee
proposed to float a loan of $5,000,000 collateral trust bonds,
based upon securities in the Atchison treasury, for which the
$5,000,0u0 “ B” bonds pledged in London and $11,700,000
Atchison 4s, Colorado Midland 4s and St. Louis & San
Francisco bonds are to be used as the collateral. The pro
ceeds will go with the cash assessment for the purposes of re
organization.
Baltimore & Leliigh.—At Baltimore, June 15, the Balti
more & Lehigh Railroad, extending from this city to Delta,
Pa., was sold for $350,000 to J. Wilson Brown, one of the
mortgage holders.
Buffalo & Susquehanna.—The first mortgage 5 per cent
gold bonds of the Buffalo & Susquehanna were listed this
week on the New York Stock Exchange. The application to
the Exchange includes a balance sheet and the earnings of the
road and is given at length in another column. An abstract
of the mortgage was published in the C hronicle of October
14, 1893, page 639, and a map of the road appears in tbe I n
vestors ’ Supplement .
The bonds are a first mortgage both
on the road and 89,394 acres of timber land. Under the sink
ing fund provision $47,400 in cash will be applied on July 1
to redeem bonds.
Cape Fear & Yadkin Talley.—At the close of the time

Niagara Fulls Power.— A dispatch from Buffalo says
everything is bow ready for a duplication of tt»e Niagara
Falls power scheme upon the Canadian side. The company
secured the right to operate upon the Canadian side some
time ago, but all the agreements were not signed until recent
ly. Work on the wheel pit and the tunnel and canal will soon
begin. This Canadian project is controlled by the same in
terests that control the tunnel on the American side.

At Mil*rauk»>. June 14, Receiver Thomas F, Oakes testified
for himself in the Northern Pacific inwstigation. He said
that when he wan made President of the Northern Pacific
Comptay in i h e bad very little to say. The Chairman of
the board of director., who'was Henry Villard, presided at
the meetings and appointed all the committees. The Chair
man was. in fact* the President of the corporation, as he ap
pointed the Finance Committee and controlled the Treasurer.
The rentals of the Chicago A N. Pacific terminals Mr. Oakes
flamed out as follow-*, whentimes were good; Northern Pacific
and Wie. Central. $350,000;Great Western, #150,000; Baltimore
* Ohio, $20b,nOO; total, $700,000. Representatives of other
lines told him they would probably use the terminals, and in
a few year* he thought they could meet the tlxed charges.
Till then $1,000,000 in bonds were set apart to meet the in
terest on the purchase price of $18,500,000,

Ohio Southern—Cleveland Akron & Columbus. — The
Cleveland Akron & Columbus'and Ohio Southern companies
have been placed under one management and the offices
moved to Cleveland. George W. Saul is in charge of both
properties as President and General Manager. The recentlyelected directors of the Akron road, who are mostly prom
inent Cleveland parties, are Joseph H. Hoyt, a director of the
Valley Railroad and of the Commercial National and Western
Reserve banks of Cleveland: George H. Russell, cashier of
the Western Reserve Bank; William H. Chisholm, President
of the Cleveland Rolling Mills Company and Vice-President of
the National Bank of Commerce, of Cleveland: James HI
King, of Columbus; H. B. Morehead, of Cincinnati; Mills Wj
Barse, President of the Exchange National Bank, of Olean,
N, Y ,, and George W . Saul.
Pennsylvania Poughkeepsie &Boston.—The bondholders’
committee of the Pennsylvania Poughkeepsie & Boston Rail
road Company invite such holders as are willing to become
parties to an agreement for the purchase of the property,
upon foreclosure of the first mortgage, to deposit their bonds
aBd coupons and also cash to the extent of 20 per cent of
their holdings with the Fidelity Insurance Trust & Safe
Deposit Company of Philadelphia, under such agreement.
Philadelphia & Reading.—Special Master Crawford has
made his report in the case of Mr. Rice against the Reading
receivers and he decides against Mr. Rice in almost every par
ticular. The Master finds that there does not appear to be
any ground for a successful suit against the receivers in con
nection with the Boston & Maine and New England purchases.
Neither does there appear to be ground for a successful suit
against Prince & Co. or Ervin & Co. It was the duty of the
receivers to test the operation of the Lehigh Valley lease for a
reasonable time, and not more than a reasonable time was
empl >yed. No cause of action arises against the receivers
because that trial consumed earnings of the company and re
sulted in losses. There has been no wrongful concealment by
the receivers in any respect. The sale of coal by Reading to
Lehigh A'alley upon the abolition of the lease was beneficial
to Reading and altogether advisable. The fact that the de
posit of collateral bonds to secure contracts, or the substitu
tion of incomes therefor, was not published to the stockhold
ers, or to the creditors, or to the Court, gives no ground for
action against the receivers. In view of the whole premises,
it is the opinion of the Master that the petition should be dis
missed.
—In regard to the receivers of the road entering into the pro
posed agreement with the city of Philadelphia for the erection
of the subway east of Bread Street, counsel for Mr. Rice made
a new point. He objected to the agreement being entered
into by the receivers with the purpose of forming an obliga
tion (o'take precedence of the income bonds, and urged that
only the company itself should make the agreement with the
city, subject to its prior bonds and obligations. At the ad
journed bearing before Judge Dallas, on the 14th, the argu
ments led to an interesting discussion as to the status of the
terminal [bonds and their relation to the incomes. Mr Bijur
claimed that the income mortgage expressly excludes this
terminal charge from preference. The mortgage allows pay
ment for reasonable improvements and additions out of the
gross earnings of the company but an expenditure of $15,000,000, the cost of the terminal, could not be brought under
mch classification. It creates an annual charge which the
provi-ions of the income mortgage expressly forbid being
placed ahead of it.
Mr. Dickson argued that the income bondholders could
have no cause of complaint until the accounts for the year had
been made up and showed that the interest on the bonds had
been earned in whole or ia part and had been misapplied.
To this contention Mr. Bijur replied that the income mort
g a g e required the application of the earnings to the payment
of the fixed charges specified in the mortgage. That accord
ing to Mr. Dickson’s interpretation of the mortgage, the in
come bondholder was secured as to his _ interest, if
earned, but if it was not earned his mortgage
might be destroyed bv the foreclosure of a prior
mortgage owing to the use of the earnings applicable to.
the interest on the prior mortgages for the payment of the
terminal or other charges junior to the income mortgage.
The bonds of the Poughkeepsie Bridge Road were in the same
position as those of the terminal, and President Harris had
declared in relation to the bridge bonds that Reading’s guar
antee, having been made subsequent to 1888, the date of the
income bonds, was absolutely without value.
Judge Dallas listened with attention to the discussion, and
said that the points raised by Mr. Bijur required most careful
consideration. He added that he would hand down a deci
sion as early as he could.
A dispatch from Philadelphia on the 15th says : Judge Dal
las. in the United States Circuit Court, has overruled the ob
jections filed by Isaac L. Rice to the participation of the
Reading Company in the construction of the proposed sub
way on Pennsylvania Avenue and permits the receivers to
make the contract by which the city and the railway com
pany'bear equal shares in the cost of the work. But Judge
Dallas says the order is made without adjudication or preju
dice of any question as to how payment or charges under or
incident to the contract should be considered or dealt with in
ascertaining if interest be earned in any one year as provided
in article 40 of the income mortgage.______________________

Adopted by the Governing Committee June 13, 1894.
Panama Railroad—Pacific Mail.—The contract existing
between Pacific Mail Steam hip Company and Panama Rail
road Company, whereby the latter used the former’s Atlantic
fleet for the year expired June 15, and will not be renewed.
The Panama Railroad Company has chartered the three
steamers of the old Brazilian line, the Alliance, the Advance
and the Finance. It will use pier 43, North River, for its
New York terminal. An officer of the Pacific Mail said that
on June 30 the company will resume its Atlantic service
under an understanding with the Panama Railroad to the
effect that the temporary injunction restraining the railroad
from interfering with Central American freight will be re
spected and that the steamship company will not attempt to
do through California business.
Richmond Nlcliolasville Irvine & BeattyTille.—A Louis
ville dispatch says Judge Barr, in the United States Circuit
Court, has ordered the sale at public auction of the Richmond
Nicholasville Irvine & Beattyville Railroad, The Court fixed
the upset price at $550,000, or about 39,000 per mile. The sale
is ordered on the petition of the Central Trust Company of
New York.
Richmond & Danville.—At Richmond, Va., June 15, Mr.
C. H, Coster, representing the Richmond Terminal reorgani
zation committee, bought the Richmond & Danville Railroad
at the upset price fixed by the Court. There was no competi
tion. The Southern Railway Company, successor to the Rich
mond Terminal Company, will be organized in Richmond,
Va., on Monday next, and it is expected that the sale of the
Richmond & Danville, which took place to day, will be
confirmed by the Court, so that the property can be turned
over to the Southern Company by July 1.
Tlmrber-Whyland.—An application was made to Justice
Andrews in Supreme Court, Chambers, on bshalf of the re
ceivers of the Thurber-Whyland Co., for leave to sell the
property and assets now in their hands in bulk for $600,000
to the Reorganization Committee appointed by the stockhold
ers, of which James M, Waterbury is the President. A ma
jority of the creditors of the concern have expressed their
willingness to accept the terms offered by the Reorganization
Committee, to pay 50 cents on the dollar in cash and to
pay the balance in notes of the new firm. Tue arrangement
that they propose making with the stockholders is that those
holding preferred stock in the old company shall get 20 per
cent of their holdings in preferred stock of the new company,
and those holding common stock shall be entitled to 10 per
cent of their holdings in the second preferred stock, and in
either case the balance shall be made up by the taking of com
mon stock.
The assets consist of merchandise valued at $400,000
which, if forced to sale, would hardly sell for $250,000; bills
and accounts receivable are figured at $1,100,000, but of these
at least $800,000 are uncollectible. As there was no opposi
tion to the application, Justice Andrews said he would re
serve his decision until he had consulted with Chancellor Mc
Gill.
Western Union Telegraph.—The estimated n°t earnings
for the quarter ending Mar. 31, 1894, were $1,050,000; the
actual were $1,094,701, or $44,701 more than tie estimate.
Estimated net earnings for the quarter ending June 30, 1894,
compare with the actual results in the same quarter of 1893 as

Fun her improvement has developed in general trade con
ditions. Buyers still act cautiously, but pressing necessities
compel the handling o£ larger quantities of staple goods, and
the increased distribution from jobbers’ hands noted one week
ago is now reflected in a growing demand upon bulk parcels
in first hands. The gain in business has strengthened, in some
instances slightly advanced, values, and the present feeling
in commercial circles is more hopeful. Considerable specu
lative interest has again been shown in leading commodities,
grain in particular receiving attention, and the temper of
operators, was generally optimistic, Wheat crop conditions
during early portion of the week were reported somewhat
unpromising, but toward the close advices were more cheer
ful, which served as a check upon investment buying. The
coarser grains are not considered out o f danger and are held
steadily.
Lard on the spot has received a trifle better attention, but
prices have made no changes of importance, closing steady
at 6 l :.'e. for prime City, 7c. for prime Western and 7-3Sc. for
refined for the Continent. The speculation in lard for future
delivery at ihis market has been at a standstill, and prices
have weakened a trifle in response to weaker advices from
the West and liberal receipts of swine at primary points,
closing doll.

Speculation in cotton for future delivery at this market has
been moderate and conducted upon cautious lines. The
reports upon acreage and crop conditions down to June 1st
were generally accepted as promising, but during tbe current
week dry weather has been advised from the Atlantic States
in such form as to create some apprehension regarding the
crop in that section, and served as a slightly stimulating in
fluence. Tbe ruling line of value has been considered too
low to warrant fresh “ short” ventures. On Saturday the
market opened weak and afterwards declined 9@10 points
under influence of the monthly crop statement from Agri
cultural Department, the general text of which proved better
than expected. Monday opened with another small decline,
followed by quick recovery, and the close showing 4 points net
gain, the shorts becoming alarmed inconsequence of generally
scant offerings. During Tuesday the dealing was moderate and
principally between local operators with some irregularity in
price, although a small net gain took place. A slightly fever
ish market prevailed during Wednesday in consequence of
erroneous interpretation of foreign cipher dispatches from
abroad, which at first gave an impression of a sharp advance
at Liverpool, and were afterwards contradicted. Responding
to those features our market gained 7(g8 points and then re
acted to 3 points net gain for the day. Thursday’s market
was somewhat irregular, but finally closed at a small net ad
vance. To-day conditions are slow and uneventful, with the
deal mainly among local operators in consequence of absence
of new information from home or foreign sources. Cotton
on the spot fairly active at 7 5-16c. for middling uplands.
T h e total sales for forward delivery for the week are 335.700
bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
5,646 bales, including 2,413 for export, 2,800 for consumption
34 for speculation and 400 on contract. The following are
t h e official quotations for each day of the past week—
June 9 to June 15.
Rates on and off middling, as established Nov. 32 'ov th Revision Committee, at which grades other than middling
may be delivered on contract:

June 15, 1894.
Early in the week there was a fairly active trade in the
market for wheat flour. Both the home trade and shippers
were buying and prices were advanced 5 3 1 0 c. per barrel, but
later, owing to the reaction in the wheat market, buyers with
drew, and prices dropped back to their former basis. Rye flour
has been in fair request at full values. Corn meal has been
moderately active and prices have been quite firm, owing to
the recent improvement in corn. To-day the market for
wheat flour was dull and easy.

THE CHHON1CLE.
I mined sat ly after our last issue the market declined under
a much more favorable report by the Government’s Agri
cultural Bureau as to the condition of the growing crop than
was generally expected, but later continued reports of un
favorable weather both abroad and at the West and stronger
foreign advices caused an advance. Subsequently advices
from the West and also from Europe reported more favorable
weather conditions for the crop, and this, with a weaker drift
to the foreign markets, prompted selling by longs to realize
profits, under which prices declined rather sharply. In the
spot market shippers have shown very little disposition to
trade and the inquiry from local millers has also been slow.
Yesterday the sales included No. 3 hard Kansas at lc. under
July f, o, b. afloat. To-day the market was weaker during
early ’Change under moderate selling, prompted by better
■weather at the West, but later rallied on reports of an in
creased export demand and steadier foreign advices. To-day
the spot market was fairly active for export. The sales in
cluded No. 3 red winter at H e . over July f. o. b. afloat, No. 1
hard Kansas at lc. under July f. o. b. afloat and No. 1 hard
Manitoba on p. t.

—There has been a better demand for
seasonable lines of fabrics and fancies under the influence of
fine weather, and some welcome clearances of broken stocks
have been effected. The fall demand is still backward for
