This has been, to a large extent, a holiday week, and not much basiness has been in progress in any department. Throughout the manufaoturing districts the Whitsun holidays have, aa usual, been strictly observed, and but few new features have presented themselves either in the commercial or financial world. In the money market there has been continued ease. The supply of mercantile paper offering is still very moderate, and the rate of discount for three months' bank bills is not more than aj^ to 254 per cent, while the quotations for short loans is only 1^4 to 2 per cent. The easy condition of the money market, peculiar to the early summer months, has therefore again manifested itself, and there are certainly no indications of immediate improvement. Hopes, however, are still entertained of a revived inquiry for money late in the season, but there are no anticipations of dear money. The proportion of reserve to liabilities at the Bank of England is now 4SP/i per cent, against 45?^ per cent last year, and the bank rate of discount is 3 per cent, against 2^ per cent the open market quotation being 2^ to i% per cent, against l'?4 to 1% per cent. The supply of bullion held by the Bank amounts to £23,154,704, against ^£25,919,935, the total reserve being £12,573.824, against £14,908,140. The position of the bank, therefore, is somewhat less satisfactory than it was twelve months ago, but it is still a fairly good one. The state of the money market and the favorable reports which are published respecting the growing crops, not only in this country but on the Continent, justify the belief that a further expansion of our trade will take place daring the autumn. The harvest of last year was a decided improvement over that of the previous year, and a revival of agricultural prosperity, though as- 1881. 1882, a Circulation Public depoalta Other ....

The difference of one working day is equal to about £6,000, and this if deducted from the decrease of £7,066 in gross receipts shown in the monthly return, would reduce the decrease for the month to about £1,000, which closely agrees with Ihe decrease computed from the weekly returns. The accounts received from the agricultural districts respecting the growing crops are very satisfactory, and on the Continent in France especially the harvest prospect is a very good one. The season is about a fortnight earlier than usual, and the cutting of clover hay has been already commenced in some districts. If the weather for hay-making proves to be fine the crop will be a large one of excellent quality. Last year's crop 'was a very short one, and hay has consequently been dear; but the scarcity of hay was not so very severely felt during th 3 winter months owing to the exceptionally mild weather, which enabled farmers to graze their stock in the pastures, and thus economize their hay crops. The weather has recently become milder, and the nights are warmer. Some light rains have been falling throughout the country, which will prove to be a great benefit to the root crops, which, in England, have just been sown. The favorable weather and the satisfactory reports respecting the crops naturally produce much quietness in the trade for cereal produce. There is, however, not much movemt^nt in prices, but the tendency is slightly in favor of buyers. The supplies of produce afloat to the United Kingdom have fallen ofiF, being 2,143,000 quarters of wheat, 206,000 quarters flour and 290,000 Canada — shown in — Indian corn. During the week ended May 27 the sales of home-grown wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales amounted to 23,305 quarters, against 31,012 quarters last year and 23,336 quarters in 1880; while it is estimated that they were in the whole kingdom 113,220 quarters, against 124,100 quarters and 93,350 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the 160 principal markets have been 1,663,929 quarters, against 1,508,549 quarters and 1,175,587 quarters, the estimate for the whole kingdom being 6,655,720 quarters, against 5,678,200 quarters in the corresponding period of last season and 6,727,800 quarters in 1879-80. Without reckoning the supplies of produce furnished ex-granary at the commencement of the season, it is estimated that the following quantities of wheat and flour have been placed on the British markets since harvest.

Until this ciQestion of the rente is settled the Qovernment wtU par no subsidy on the link of 60 or 70 miles common to both the Pacific main line as formerly projected and the Sault Ste. Marie line. This indicates busineas-like caution on the part of the Government. 6. It is expected that the line from Prince Arthur's Landing to Winnipeg will be opened in July next for all practical purposes of freight and passenger accommodation, though the road will net oe actually complete in all its appointments. 6. Traffic will be taken to tne Georgian Bay, thence by water to Prince Arthur's I^anding, and thence on to Winnipeg and beyond by rail, a route through oor own territory accom- 6,830 miles." plished after long labors and great expense. Denver Utah & Paclllc.— It was reported this week that J. 7. Of the 433 miles from Prince Arthur's Landing to Winnipeg the rails are laid on 401 mlle.s, leaving oaly 32 miles more S. Morgan & Co. of London, had agreed to take and place to cover. But the line will not be actaally flnished till next $5,000,000 of the Denver Utah & Pacitlo first mortgage bond*. The construction company which is building this road is to season. receive $18,000 per mile in bonds and |20,00O in stock. The 8. The total expenditure on this section of the road to the present time that is to the last payment is .?13,224,000, and road will be narrow gauged, and will run in a southwesterly direction from the city of Denver to the Paciflc caast. the balance of expenditure will net exceed $1,400,000. Railroad Conslrnctlon (New).— The latest information of 9. The line is now located definitely 470 miles west from Winnipeg, and the Government does not intend to assent to the completion of track on new railroads is as follows farther location till it is seen whether the Kicking Horse pass Alleslieny Ccutral.— Extended from AnKeltca, N. Y., north b/ east to ; ; ; ; — — : is available or not, the evidence so far being in favor of a change from the hitherto accepted Yellow Head Pass. 10. The distance of 116 miles west of Winnipeg is now ander traffic. About 8,000 tons of rails are now on the spot, and large quantities are on their way for the purposes of track-laying. II. Up to the present time the company have been paid only 11,610,000 and 1,610,000 acres of land as their portion of the subsidy. 12. T'he Pacific Railway company have, in addition to their main line, graded 89 miles of a branch called the Winnipeg & Pembina Mountain branch, running southwesterly from Winnipeg to the border, and in addition to a branch connecting with Emerson, it is expected^that 100 miles will be under traffic during the present sea.son. 13. A branch from Brandon is also projected in a southeasterly directiin, 15 miles to Souris and thence west, in a'l 195 miles ; and this with the other branch of 225 miles will make a total, apparently, of 420 miles of branch lines which the company are building without subsidy. 14. The question of the Rocky Mountain pass is not yet settled. The government, in view of the probability of another pass being chosen, takes power to adopt it but in the meantime there are only strong probabilities in favor cf the change. 15. This change to the Kicking Horse Pass will, if it takes place, make a saving of 79 miles in the length of the road; but as in the case of the cliange on the eastern section, the cost to the company will be increased, not diminished, aa was said, by the alteration of the route. 16. The Yale-Kamloops section is progressing very favorably. It is the most expensive and difficult section of the road. The total value of the work done is, so far, 11,979,973. The date of completion is 3a\v, 1885, and the Minister anticipates it vcill be accomplished within that time. 17. The portion from Emory's Bar to Port Moody has lately been plac»a under contract at a probable cost of $2,486,000, to be flnished in July, 1885. 18.

(For the Balance 1881.) : Southern Railway are mainly dependent upon through and competitive business, it is not surprising that they have suffered the decrease shown in the figures of this report. It will be observed that the average rate pe.-ton per mile recei\ed for all freight, includiug local, was 1*12 mills less than tlie rate obtained in 1880, which, with theiiicreased tonnage of 1881, represents a loss to revenue of $546,521 36. The average rate per mile received from each passenger durinf^ 1881 was 351 mills less than the rate of 1880, whicl, with the mcreased movement of passengers iu 1881, represents a loss to revenue of |143,622 13. It is gratifying to notice that the local business of the road, aa compared with 1880, shows an increase of 15 03 per cent in tonnage and of 20 8 per cent in the number of passengers carried. " As might be expected, with an increase in the amount of freight and the number of passengers carried, there was also a considerable increase in operating expenses ; but, in addition to the increase naturally resulting from the movement of a larger busine.ss, there was during 1881 an advance in the cost of fn«n and materials used, as well as iu the wages of labor employed. The increase in operating expenses of 11"06 per cent 18 not larger than is easily accounted for by the inorea-se of 10 73 ger cent in the number of tons of freight and of 21 '4 per cent 1 the number of passengers carried, in connection with the other causes mentioned." * • * " On the 1st of January, 1881, the rate of interest on the company's new first mortgage bonds became five per cent instead of three per cent, as it had previously been, thus causing an increase in the amount of fixed charges for the year (on the basis of the bonds actually issued) of $270,825 09, the total amount of interest paid being |678,624 70, instead of $407,799 61, as in 1880."

The President makes a very brief report, without referring to the recent change in control of the company's stock. He says that in addition to the operating expenses of the year there his been expended for construction, equipment and other " The bills payable account, which was items. $141,500. $107,200 at la.Ht report, has been extinguished. Tbese pay. ments have all been made from net earnings and current assets of the company. No advances have been made since June 1, 1881, on account of our guarantee interest on the Cincinnati Richmond & Fort Wayne Railroad bonds, that road having since earned its own interest, with a fair prospect of continuing to do so, thereby relieving us of what has been an annoai average advance of $19,087 for the last nine years." * * • " The repairs to bridges and trestles have been more than double that of last year, the increase in this item al iue being « * "The aggregate bonded debt and guarantee |S7,669." stocks of the company, including its leased lines, as shown in the tables of the Secretary's report, is $10,326,500, a^inst $10,325,750 last year, an increase of $500; at the same time the ag> gregate annual payments of interest and dividends will be t846,> 520 the coming year, against $684,025, or a decrea.se of $3' ,505, which is a saving to this cotniyany of over 1 per cent on its capital stock." • * * "It was deemed inexpedient to incur a floating debt upon' the obligations arising for so much of the extraordinary renewals and construction work as was required to be done during the past year ; and, by the defeat of the consolidation policy, no other resource was left your board but to use the entire earnings for the benefit of the property."

Vanderbilt says in his report " The year 1881 was one of disarpointment and reaction in railroad business. During the first three or four months, traffic with the Wtfflt and Northwest was greatly deranged, and at times almost entirely suspended, in consequence first of snow-storms of unn. 8ual extent and severity, and afterward of resulting fliwds, which caused wide-spread injury to railroad property. Although this company's road was at no time seriously blocked, the severe weather encountered by its western connections occasioned a partial suspension of business during the time referred to, and a consequent loss of revenue. There had been but a partial recovery from the effects of these adverse circumstances when new difficulties arose in the form of a disastrous railroad war, which broke out early in the summer, and which continued with increasing seriousness until the end of the year. Tlie low rates made for both passengers and freight during this period are without precedent, and as the earnings of the Canada the CUKONICLB 4*i'l.2M0 Dlvl<lpn<lB just itwued states that the number of miles of road operated iu 1881 was the tame as in 1880 403-64, of which 229 20 miles are main line (International Bridge to Amherstbnrg, Ontario) and 174*44 miles are branches and tributary roads. The amount charged to construction account during 1881 was ?76,227. Nothing was charged to equipment account in 1881. The locomotive and the passenger oar equipment remain the same as at the close of 1880. The freight equipment shows a decrea.se of fourteen, being for cars worn out and destroyed, isai. fiiSSSa.

This excess of expenditure clearly represented one of the objects for which, under the reorganization, a separate fund was created, out of which it was accordingly met. The result has been that the road-bed, trestles, truss-bndges and the track on the main line of the east side division, and on the first forty-seven miles of the west side division (the last fifty miles of the ]att«r division being but just constructed, and hence in the best order), are in a much better condition than they have been for years. I deem it proper to say, however, that considerable work remains to be done in the same direction upon the oldest parts of the system. But, according to the e.stimates of the manager, the balance of the reorganization betterment fund still on hand will nearly suffice for the purpose, so that the current income will not have to be called on to any considerable extent. it is quite impossible for the management to indicate at this time, even approximately, the cost of the new line from Roseburg to the Junction with the Central the southern extension, Until the definite location of the heaviest line over the Siskiyou Mountains is finished, no reliable calculation can, of course, be made. From estimates of the cost of the actually surveyed and located lines to the base of the Siskiyou Mountains, I feel justified, and consider it my duty to state, however, that the construction fund represented by the available proceeds of the first mortgage loan as far as issued, will not be sufficient to build and equip the line, and that, in all probability, the authorized issue of bonds, at the rate of $20,000 per mile, will have to be made for the aggregate mileage of the southern extension, in order to provide the requisite funds."

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 may eonstantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative movement for the years named. The movement each month Binee September 1, 1881, has been as follows. 85 " The stand is not so good as usual and is an element of the reported depreciation. The cool, wet weather causes slow growth and unthrifty appearance, favoring the attacks of lice and rust and the prevalence of sore shin.' "A large number of returns say that with recent fine weather cotton is improving, and gives some assurance of a better report in July." ZXXIV. could be had at a shade less than these figures. Batts are in the same position. About 1,000 bales have been taken in small lots, but we hear of no large transactions. Prices are about steady, and holders are quoting 2%@2 13-16c. for paper grades MonlMy " The average condition of the entire ootton area indicates a depreciation of 11 per cent from perfect healthfulness and average growth. It is represented by 89. The June condition of the previous crop was 93 ; it was 99 of the fine crop of 1880. It is better than last year only in South Carolina and Texas. ",The cause of depreciated condition is mainly a temperature too low for thrift. In every State there was destruction of plants by frost. There was also too much rain for healthful growth. Both oases made necessary replanting in some counInstances are reported of ties of one-fourth of the acreage. two or three succeasire replantings, and the replacement was still progressing.
