Of course speculators are making the most of every unfavorable rumor, of every storm, and of every variation in temperature. But as still to us seem the climatic conditions since the to have been as favorable season, except that the start has been slow and the was crops are wheat, corn, oats and spring really opened during any similar very late, the growth as all backward cotton look to-day ; otherwise promising. a West, particularly, and less extent, there ha3 very fair distribution of under the improving appearance a evidently goods this spring, and of the merchants crops, in the agricultural, sections are anticipating a further speedy development of business.

The customs duties paid in New York for May were about 4 millions (or almost 33 per cent) less than for the same month of 1882. If we can continue thus to keep the import movement down, there can be little doubt, with good crops, of an influx of gold in the early fall, which may derer a silver catastrophe until Congress can have the opportunity to prevent it altogether. The only really disquieting feature at the moment is the strong tone for foreign exchange, which is, however, due to the scarcity of bills and not to any such exceptional demand for sterling as characterized the market a week ago. So long as money rules so extremely easy here, and so high at London, this condition cannot fill to excite caution and impart a feeling of peculiar sensitiveness in financial circles. The private statement by cable Thurs¬ day afternoon illustrates this, which was to the effect that the Continental bourses were depressed on that day in consequence of the Czar having in his manifesto ignored the popular reforms demanded of him. This was soon contradicted and shown to be sensational,- but served presumed, therefore, that such banks as are disclose the weak point in our monetary situation Dow encouraging speculation in breadstuffs. are not only suggesting the disturbance such a movement' would sure that they hold the warehouse receipts, but also that likely to produce here. they have good names back of them. So far as the London market is concerned the fears It is to be very In the business situation the indications show what a some- improving tendency. The satisfactory settlement of the labor troubles at Pittsburg is one among many evi fences of this. We have long been told that the iron h’ade was in tiie last stages of collapse, and the fact that prices had declined so materially encouraged the belief. Mow we find the manufacturers yielding the contest with their men without a struggle and signing last year’s scale prices without a condition.

Those This view is seen to be well-grounded when we remember who magnify the former usually ignore entirely the that even if there be no other resource, the high rates for heavy corresponding decrease in expenses, the latter sterling will naturally stimulate speculative sales of making the net result even more favorable than a year the drawers intending to cover them by exports of remain bills, produce sixty days hence, or provided the outward move¬ ment of produce is not then liberal, by renewals made for another sixty days. The great obstacle to free shipments of breadstuffs at the moment is the existing speculation, based upon an assumed scarcity of grain for delivery within the next two months. Con. eequently, prices of these staples are maintained at figures which effectually bar out exports. If, as now appears probable, the crop of wheat should prove to be abundant the movement to market of that portion which is earliest harvested must break down prices at least of wheat, and thus bring the produce within the reach of exporters. This line of reasoning will doubtless be adopted by foreign bankers who may be disposed to make speculative sales of sterling, and therefore we may reasonably look for a gradual decline in the rates of exchange. Still, under the existing condition of the money markets of London and New York, and in view of the possibilities referred to speedy demand for even the best American securities can be expected sufficient in amount to make any appreciable impression upon exchange, i With the London market more quiet, crop accounts favorable, and no serious disturbance anywhere, our stock above, no illustration, take the figures to the latest ago. As an date for which we both have reports of namely, to the 1st of April. gross and net— During the three months earnings declined $195,086 below those of last year, but during the same period expenses were reduced no les3 than $782,988, leaving net earnings for the quarter actually $587,902 greater than in 1882. The truth is, the company’s reports thus far have been very satisfactory, and the only uncertain point is with reference to the success of its efforts to fund, its floating debt, which, however, wo showed early in the year was not very large for a company of its size. There appears to be some doubt as to just what the company has accomplished with its collateral trust, loan, and if the officials would enlighten the public on this matter it would certainly tend to clear up much confusion. A point of some interest to investors and speculators in bonds is the fact that with the 1st of June the distinction heretofore existing between the Now York Lake Erie and Western second consolidated bonds and the New York Lake Erie & Western second consolidated funded ended with that date gross coupon bonds will disappear. These two classes of bonds and the only difference secured by the same mortgage, between them has been that while are the former have borne fluctuations six per cent interest all along, the latter have borne but during the week. In the absence, however, of any five till yesterday, when they too began to bear Q per real disaster, the speculators for a decline have made all cent. The total of these funded coupon bonds being they could of the labor troubles, cutting of rates, mis¬ understandings between roads, and other passing rumors $8,597,400, the company will hereafter have its fixed and reports.

This story, so $300,000, only $150,000 (one coupon) would be called for.

Our people, being so largely interested in Mexican railroads, follow closely the efforts which have lately been at London to settle tho old Mexican debt and restore Mexico’s credit. terest This debt is an ancient matter, the in¬ abeyance ever since the present republican government was organized. It is well known that the connection of England with the on least the on the excuse, repudiation. It is sixteen now was years since the committee formed, and the arrangement which been entered into is the result of its work and of the new-born desire the 'persistent Mexican Govern¬ ment feels for improving its credit. hopeful feature of this settlement is that it seems to bo satisfactory to both parties ; for while its terms are far from onerous to the Mexican Government they are regarded by the bondholders as more favorable to them than their own proposition, submitted as recently as last October. The bondholders at that time were prepared to fund their coupons at full face value, and with this done accept a sliding rate of interest, beginning at a very low figure, upon the debt thus enlarged. In the first year only one per cent was to be paid, in the second year 2 per cent, and in the succeeding seven years the same figure ; after that 3 per cent, if the resources of the coun¬ try should prove sufficient. The proposition now submitted, and which is supposed to have the sanction of the Mexican Government or rather to emanate directly from it, oilers only £12 for the coupons unpaid from January 1, 1867, to date—in other words, £112 in new bonds for every £100 of tho principal of the old bonds with.all coupons attached—but offers to pay full three per cent interest at once upon the new debt instead of 1@2@3 This is on per cent, as per the bondholders’ proposal. the 3 per cent debt of 1851. On the so-called debt of 1864, which to the amount of 60 per cent of its total par value represents unpaid coupons of tho former, new bonds are offered to the extent of this 60 per cent, with £7 4s. for the coupons on the same—that is, £67 4s new bonds will bo given for every £100 noihinal A amount the of old bonds with all coupons on.

The total issue of bonds is to be for £20,000,000, and of this £15,300,000 is to be appropriated for the exchange of the old debt above referred to, and the remainder, £4,700,000, is to be at the disposal of the Government “for the arrangement of certain obligations of certain of the internal debts of the republic,” and for various expenses attending refund¬ ing, &c. Out of this £4,700,000, the English papers say, there will first have to be paid the British Convention debt of between £800,000 and £900,000 ; this is a loan that was guaranteed by the British Government, and as the rate of interest on it is 6 per cent, it is calculated that the whole amount to be settled for—that is, the original principal, plus 16 years’ interest—aggregates as much a? £1,800,000.

Altogether, then, it is clear that Mexico’s financial affairs need most careful handling. But it is equally clear that circumstances therefore be expected to bring more than all other necessary work to complete the same. Allowing for these items, and remembering that the new bonds bear only three per cent interest and could not under the as establishing offices, appointing agents and doing on loan cannot It is not known just which “ certain obl¬ igations of the internal debts” the Government wishes to arrange for with this money, but it is presumed that one of them is the payment of the sum which it has agreed to give the Tehuantepec road people for their property— somewhat over 1£ million dollars. As to the ability of the Mexican republic to meet promptly the interest on this 20 million loan, there is this to be said, the burden does not appear heavy in view of the country’s resources and revenue. If subsequent loans —and it is not denied that another may be attempted when the- present is successfully completed—do not by ,their increased requirements for interest interfere, there would seem strong reason for believing that the £600,000 required annually on this 20 million debt can be found without any greaj difficulty. Mexico has undergone great development within recent years, and under the stimulus of the railroads now being built there, she has every prospect for continued progress in the future. There'is no more convincing proof cf this than the gain in the national revenues, and we give below their total for four years past. be very great.

In the Chronicle, two weeks ago, we remarked, in commenting aside from a upon the rise in foreign exchange, that movement of securities this way, there was a in a less favorable condi¬ foreign trade, and adduced some figures in support of this statement. The returns for April, issued this week by the Bureau of Statistics, not only fully confirm the opinion then expressed, *but in the result which they disclose will no doubt appear a great surprise to many persons who have not watched the movement very • closely. • The large balances in our favor which almost all recent months had recorded—such as March with 17 millions, January with 23£ millions, December with 33£ millions, and November with 25|- millions—had encouraged the belief that an equally favorable showing might be expected in the months just past, but the figures for April make it clear that it was only through the circumstance of lower imports that any balance at all was left to us in that month. The total of the exports reached only $60,860,588, the and imports being $57,029,723, the balance remaining was but $3,830,865. Had the imports been as large the month immediately in as preceding, the balance would have been less than $80,000, and had they been as large as in April, 1882, the balance would have been against us in the sum of 51- million dollars. It is true that even a bal¬ basis for the tion of present high rates our ought to prove difficult to pay an requirement of only about 3 million dollars annu¬ ally. Mexico is at present suffering from a reaction ance of $3,830,865 looks favoranle when compared with (similar to that experienced in the United States and in the $8,408,791 balance on the other side last year, but great part produced by it) from the extreme elation and considering the wide disparity between the two years in prosperity witnessed a year or so ago, and perhaps the the matter of crops, the difference in favor of 1883 is country’s growth will be more steady and sLo>v in the by no means as large as could with good reason have immediate future than it has been.

This May, the only particular in which the latter month was more decline in imports may be ascribed to the fact that money favorable than April being apparently in imports, which, —chiefly from the United States, where we are not con- as we have repeatedly shown, are being forced down to a tributing as unstintedly as two years ago to railroad lower level by the course of circumstances.

The conservative ten¬ dency of these figures is most marked in the last month of the four—April—which shows a less total than the Bame month in any other recent year except 187u. It is to be observed, too, that a much smaller proportion of the goods imported this year than last was entered for consumption. That of course is due presumably to the enactment of the new tariff law, fixing lower rates of duty on many articles, to go into effect June 1 and July 1. It is a significant fact all the same, however, for if with materially smaller imports, we can keep an in¬ creasing amount in the warehouses, we have strong evi¬ dence of a slackening in the demand, otherwise such a itate of things would not be possible. The increase in the amount of goods in bond during April was very decided, for while the total on the 31st of March was $35,471,813, on the 30th of April it was $42,023,011, an enlargement of over 6} million dollars. The total of 42 see millions compares with a total of less than 28 millions the 1st of December, and with a total of not on quite 28^- millions on As to the 1st of the good showing then May a year ago. exports, the present year makes a pretty when we take the four months together, for get a larger aggregate than in any other year during the same period except in 1S81, but when we take April alone the exhibit is not so favorable. The total of $60,860,588 for that month is smaller than in any other month July, and though last a, few millions above April last 1880. year, is very much below either April, 1881, or The reason for this latter fact is found in smaller exports of both breadstufifs and provisions this year. The also true of March, though to a smaller extent, same was but in that month we had as an offset an augmentation in the shipments of cotton, which we did not have in April, for comparing 1881 with 1883 in this respect we find that while in April in the former year we sent out 445,994 hales of cotton, in April in the present year we sent out only 388,058 bales, and at a lower price, too. Compared with a year ago, however, there is a small increase, and the same may be said of the breadstufifs and provisions exports, which accounts for the heavier total merchandise exerts this year, as shown above and as given in the subjoined table of the import and export movement in 1883 and 1832 at each port.

For instance, the total increase is less than 3 millions, while the increase in the breadstufifs exports was $2,557,129, to which should be added an increase of $1,123,805 in the provisions exports, making together $3,680,934. Taking this in connection with the remark above that the cotton shipments were also heavier than a year ago, encourages the idea that there should be quite a large difference in favor of this year’s exports. But the fact is that while it is true that shipped we more cotton in quantity, it is not true that the value was greater. Last April about 352,000 bales of cotton went out, and this year about 36,000 bales more than that, but the price wag fully two cents per pound lower in 1883, so that value# must have been at least a million dollars loss. With this explanation, the increase shown in the following table of the breadstufifs and provisions movement at each port will no longer appear to be in conflict with that shown in total exports above.

One reason for this decrease at San Francisco is the fact that that port increase in the occupied a rather exceptional position last year, the failure of the crops East in the previous season because turned the demand largely upon the Pacific States; but another reason is that prices this year have retarded exports. In the individual items of the breadstufifs exports the increase over last year in the shipments of corn is again noticeable, while the gain in flour also continues. Wheat, however,—although flour does show an increased movement,—exhibits a total for April this year (with flour reduced to bushels) only about the it was in point worthy of remark, since then the movement was small because literally there was nothing left to export, while this year all reports agree April, 1882, which is a same as CHRONICLE. THE 606 Exchange the business was most of time exceedingly dull, and any revival in the strength of prices was quickly followed by a re-action.

It appears that this film carried on for many safe and lucrative business, and were known to be large dealers in unspeculative securities, such as railway debentures, debenture stocks and preference shares. Speculation, how¬ ever, which has entrapped and ruined so many, tempted them, or rather the senior partner, to incur great risks, and the result has been a serious collapse which will involve many firms on the Stock Exchange in heavy loss. The immediate effect of this failure on Stock Exchange prices was a serious decline in home railway securities, followed by a severe collapse in American properties. Of the latter the more prominent instance was the "Wabash stocks and bonds, the bonds being also affected by rumors, subsequently contradicted, that the first of June interest would not be paid. A meeting of the creditors of the failed firm was held on Thursday, when the liabilities—that is to say differences—were computed at £230,000, with assets amounting to only £7,000 to £8,000. The firm enjoyed so high a reputation that within the last few days, on its failing to obtain further assistance from the banks, as much as £20,000 was obtained on the security of I. 0. U’s. This failure, as well as that of L. B. Mozley, which was referred to last week, is of much significance, inasmuch as it indicates to what a dangerous extent speculation has been carried, and how hopelessly insolvent many members of the Stock Exchange are. Nothing, it is believed, but a great revi¬ val of business can save many from being compelled to meet their creditors, but the hopes of revival * are at present very indistinct, and the prospect is not, therefore, an encouraging one. It is undoubtedly the opinion of many that a severe weeding out of dangerous and insolvent firms will have to be effected before the public will have confidence and give their support to the markets. Although, however, British rail¬ way shares have experienced a heavy fall of late, it is not to be inferred that there is anything really unsound with regard to railway property. Owing to bad weather since January, and to somewhat indifferent trade movements, the traffic returns do not come up to expectations; but the fading off in that respect does not justify so important a reduction in values. The downward movement is, in truth, due chiefly to the fact that the quotations had been forced up to too high a point in years a several instances, and that forced sales to dose accounts have defaulters* safe condi¬ precipitated it.

President Wafrous said of the proposed loan of $5,000,000 on first mortgage bonds (as reported by the New Haven Pallet,(Hum), that part of the money would be used to meet obliga¬ tions already incurred, amounting to $1,000,000. Only $2,000,000 more would be expended at the present time. Should the two additional tracks be extended to New Haven the entire amount would be needed. Increased facilities were not required on the Hartford division nor at the New Haven end of rhe New York division ; the necessity was between Stam¬ ford and Harlem River. Another difficulty was in rhe constant demand for an increase of trains ; they must be trains of light¬ ning speed, and yet every town must be accommodated. The bonds could probably be sold at 4 per cent interest and a premium. The vote authorizing an Lsueof §5.000,000 of bonds was unanimous ; 68,386 shares of the 15b,000 were represented.

The extension has been completed from Tara, near Fort Dodge, running in a north¬ westerly direction across the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad at Rolf, and intersecting the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad at Rutliven, a distance of 56 3-10 miles, together with the necessary bridges, depots, grain-houses and cattle yards. This work has been done slowlv during the last two years, but it has been well done and economically.*’ * * “There has been purchased for the extension the following tquipment: Five 30-ton freight engines, one 30-ton switch engine, one hundred coal cars, thirty-six hat cars, nine hand cars, nine rubble cars. To meet the expense of this extension 672 six per cent bonds of this company have been issued, secured by a first mortgage upon the 56 3-10 miles of extension, and upon the above equip¬ ment, the ad iiiional cost beiug paid by the company from the proceeds of the sales of its lands, and from other sources. • A coal track has been built of six and a quarter miles in length, commencing at Angus, on the main line of the road, and extending into the extensive coal lands adjoining. This track enables the company to reach tour mines now open, and others will probably be opened on its line, the business from which materially aids the company. This track v.as laid with second-hand iron and cost $41,286. * * * “There have been sold by the company during the year 6,735 acres of land, at an ee'vragi price of £9 45, being an aggregate price of $63,but, eaving on hand unsold 14,764 acies.” * * “The ^ earnings of the road fall short by $54,000what, they were during the previous year, caused by tlie competition of two new roads crossing the Hue and the general reduction of rates. The corn crop is of greatly diminished amount also, but this we have reason to expect will be better during the next year. The* increased rate of the operating expenses is due iu a degree to the work on the extension and the hauling of construction materials, which will be omitted the coming year.” “ OF SI’AT E M E N T C 0 M FARAT IV E Y EARS, Earnin'}* from Freight, EARNINGS .. ..

To-day there was a slight recovery, but a dull market. In the last hour, however, the market became active and buoyant, all three summer months selling at about the same figures, and the next crop recovered Thursday’s decline. Cotton on the spot has been very dull. Little has been reported except an unim¬ portant demand for home consumption. Quotations were weak on Saturday, and were reduced l-16c. on Monday and again on Thursday. To-day the market was quiet and unchanged, middling uplands closing at 10^c. The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 3G6.500 bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week 1,740 bales, including 105 for export, 1,522 for consumption, 113 for speculation and in transit. Of the above, — babs were each to arrive.
