VANDEBBILTS JOURNEY WEST.

Mr. Yanderbilt's trip to the West has called public
attention to his increasing investments in

Western and

Northwestern roads. That he was pecuniarily identified
with some of the leading properties in those sections of
the country has been known for some time, but this week
he is reported as stati ng that he has a large individual
interest in the Chicago Rock Island & Pacific, the Chicago
BurUngton & Quincy, the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe

and the Union

Pacific.

It is also stated that

IFrom our own correspondent.
LoNDOs. Saturday, June 10, 1882.
The position of the money market has not materially changed
since this day week. Id fact, the market has been devoid of
any important feature, but a tendency to ease has been
apparent. For short loans, the rate of interest is only 2 per
oent per annum, while the rate of discount for three and four
months' bank bills is only i)i per cent, with somewhat frequent
transactions below that figure.

wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to 22,209 quarters, against 26,137 quarters last year
and 27,856 quarters in 1880; while it is computed that they
were in the whole kingdom 88,840 quarters, against 104,550

150 principal markets have been 1,656,138 quarters, against
1,534,686 quarters and 1,203,443 quarters, the estimate for

righteousness of strikes, and by no means the unlawful violence often practised by strikers towards non-union men or
towards employers; but when a workingman who is supposed
to represent an average family of five persons, asks that
he may get 20 cents an hour for employment that is not regular, his demand does not seem altogether unreasonable to an
outsider. Granting that the men are not furnished with work
during one-fifth of their time, and the wages would amount to
$10 per week, or about $500 per year. Does this appear to our
railroad officers to be an exorbitant sum for tlie support of

old bonds, whether mortgage bonds or not, constitute an
obligation of the company, it is obvious that the interest on all
must be paid if the company is to maintain its credit; and
hence all the junior issues have jumped up this week, as the
payment of back interest on the general mortgage and income
mortgage bonds was begun.

Railroad and MisccUaneons Stocks.—The stock market
has been well sustained when we consider the remarkable
advance of last week, and the fact that there lias been no
essential change in the commercial situation. It does not
appear that the rise was produced merely by a temporary rush
to cover short contracts, but while that influence unquestionably helped the advance, and made it more sudden, there was
also strong purchasing on the bull side. The principal reaction from tlie best prices made has been led by Louisville &
Nashville and Denver & Rio Grande, and in regard to the first
named it was known that there was dissension in the board
of directors and that two members had resigned. This led to
all sorts of damaging rumors, whicli, however, met with a
persistent denial at the office, and an assertion that the
But even if it is paid,
next dividend would be paid.
there will now be some suspicion that it is like the
Rio
Wabash dividend of November, 1881. The Denver
Grande stock, having passed its dividends, is easily depressed, and the increased obligations are not known to be
balanced by a corresponding increase in net earnings. The

&

Paul stock is stronger than last week, and it is reported on
good authority that Mr. Vanderbilt has recently bouglit quite
St.

a block of it it is also stated quite positively at the office that
the 10 per cent stock to be issued against undivided profits
will be distributed as a stock dividend. We regret to say that
last week we were misled by a very direct and positive statement published that a leading director had made quite a different assertion. The account even gave the report of a personal interview and the very words used, but it has since been
flatly contradicted by the director in question.
The Philadelphia & Reading movement has been { ming the
great events of the week, and the stock has been exctpiionaUy
strong and active, as well as the bonds. The prospectus for a
loan of $13,000,000 of the new five per cent consolidated mortgage was issued Friday morning, but as to actual work accomplished by Mr. Gowen the public yet has absolutely no
certain information, and amid the bushels of rumors the only
grain yet of solid hard fact consists in the cash now being
paid out on the over-due coupons, as above stated.

United States Bonds. There has been rather more activity
in government bonds and some movement in the 3}^ per cents,
owmg to the passage of the amended bank charter bill in the
Tlie eleventh section how reads as follows:

reeelve at the Treasury any bonds of the United States bearini? 3ia per

Mr. Milbank denies that he ever made any such statement.
The remarks upon the subject made in another department
of the Cheoniclb] last week, were based upon the assumption
that Mr. Milbank's reported account was true, as there was
then no reason to disbelieve it.
As to the facts, Mr. Wadsworth now states that "the stockholders at their annual meeting authorized the directors to
issue of the common stock 20 per cent pro rata to the common
and preferred stockholders 50 per cent to be paid for in cash
and the other 50 per cent on account of net undivided income.
The issue will probably be made in October."
In regard to the whole business of giving out rumors and
reports, whether about Milwaukee & St. Paul, Winona & St.
Peter, or any other sainted companies, it is proposed that the
Stock Exchange should take some measures to test the true
spirit of the modem rumor-apostle, as he appears in his various
phases, and see whether he really belongs to the following of St.
Peter and St. Paul, or to that of Ananias and Sapphira.

aid in the building of the Cincinnati depot and elevator and
purchase new equipments, was ratified. President Ingalls submitted a financial statement of the business of the road for the
year ending June 30, 1882, with June estimated. It shows the
gross earnings to have been $2,520,323 expenses, $1,473,394,
leaving the net earnings $1,046,928. From the latter amount
the interest, taxes and rental expenses, $631,599, and a dividend
of $360,000, is deducted, which leaves a surplus of $55,329. The
usual 1^ per cent dividend was declared, payable July 15.

New York & New England.— The special meeting of the New
New England's stockholders authorized the issue of

Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul.— The news was first telefraphed from Milwaukee that the stockholders of this company
ad authorized the directors to issue 20 per cent of new stock,
of which issue 10 per cent would be sold to stockholders at
par, and the other 10 per cent would be issued to represent
surplus earnings. This was understood to mean plainly that
the 10 per cent issued to represent surplus earnings would be a
stock dividend to stockholders, and it was so stated in the
Cheonicle. But presently reports were circulated that 10 per
cent would be issued to stockholders on the payment of par in
cash, and the other 10 per cent to represent surplus earnings
would be sold at its full market price, and there would be no
stock dividend at all. As the CHEOincLE had no other purpose
than to give the true facts of the case, the natural course was
pursued of sending to the company's office to get a correct
account of the matter, but at the office nothing further was
known than what the first press dispatches had contained, as
Mr. Wadsworth had not returned from the West. Just after
this, there appeared in the Wall Street Daily News an
absolute
and unqualified assertion that Mr. Milbank, a prominent
director, had given a definite explanation of the resolutions in
regard to the new issue of stock. The News had been accustomed to turn all things dark in giving its opinions of the

therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
like the following.
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the

which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

FiEST CoTTOiT Bloom at Memphis. Mr. Henry Hotter, the
Memphis Cotton Exchange, informs us that
Memphis received the first bloom of the season last Friday
(June 16), from Jas. B. Craighead, Stonewall Landing, Mississippi Co., Arkansas.
The first bloom last year was received
three days earlier and came from the plantation of Dr. Pan,
Courtland, Panola Co., Mississippi.
Comparative Port Receipts and Daily Crop Movement.
A comparison of the port movement by weeks is not accurate
an 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
constantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative
movement for the years named. The movement each month
since September 1, 1881, has been as follows.

market has been stpadily deeliDing, and as a raU
the transactions have been of very moderat* volume. Tbera
has been some specnlative demand, however, at the low prieM,
and some indications that export trade ma/ shortly show aa
improvement.
The depression has been most marked in th«
lower gradai of both spring and winter, and the better
grades are beginning to show rather more steadinem in price.
owing to the fact that they are by no meaas plentifal, bat th«
lowness of trade militates against any statistical advantage
which may favor holders. To-day the market was very slow
and the low grades cootinaed depressed.
Wheat has been irregnlar and unsettled, owing to the frequent fluctuations at Chicago. The clique there is being aided
here by sales for export at exceptionally low prices, in order to
dispose of the wheat which is being shipped eastward from
Chicago in order to put it oat of the reach of the short«. To
this end sales have been made here of No. 2 red at |1 37 f. o.b.
while the same grade in elevator for home use sold at |1 49.^0
|1 48. The warm weather at the West is very favorable to the
growing crop, and if vermin do no harm a good crop may be
expected, though the reports are not favorable from all th«
floor

important business in certain fall and winter fabrics, some large
which were forwarded to interior buyers direct from the
mills.
There was an urgent desire on the part of Western and
Soutliwestern buyers to make shipments of flannel blankets,
dark prints, jeans and staple cotton goods under their present
favorable freight contract.^, as it has been officially announceci
that the schedule for West-bound freights will be heavily
advanced on the 1st proximo. For seasonable goods there was
only a limited demand at first hands, and the jobbing trade in
staple and department goods was fair for the time of year,
though by no means active.
Domestic Cotton Goods.— The exports of cotton goods during
the week were 2,547 packages, of which 1,245 were sent to
Great Britain, 511 to Africa, 162 to Argentine Republic, PI to

lots of

British West Indies, 55 to Hamburg. &c. The demand at first
hands was irregular, but the volume of business was fairly
large, taking into consideration the freight embargo that pre-

vailed the greater part of the week. Cotton flannels were freely
shipped from the mills in execution of back orders, and there
was a demand for certain makes of fine brown and fouryard sheetings.
Bleached goods and wide sheetings were
in fair, but irregular demand, and there was a moderate
business in ducks, denims, tickings, and other colored cottons.
of bleached goods are a trifle easier in price, but
the tone of the market is generally steady. Print cloths were
in fair demand and firm at 3 13-16c. for64xt)4sand3%c.@3 7-16c.
for 56x60.s. Dark prints were (Jecidedly more active, and some
large lots were shipped to Western markets subject to the

request at agents' hands, and fairly active with jobbers.
I)oME.3Tic Woolen Goods.— The main feature of the woolengoods market has been a much more active demand for flannels
and blankets, resulting in a satisfactory business. Colored
flannels met with liberal sales, and dress flannels and sackings
were in good r<>quest. Colored blankets continued to move
steadily, and white blankets were taken with more freedom.
Men's-wear woolens were mostly quiet as regards new business,
and the movement on account of back orders was considerably
lessened by the freight blockade. Leading makes of heavy
cassimeres. suitings, worsteds, overcoatings, etc., continue sold
up to production, and prices are consequently steady. Cloakings were in fair but irregular demand, and there was a
moderately good business in Kentucky jeans and doeskins; but
satinets ruled quiet.
Heavy shirts and drawers were a little
more active, as were staple and fancy hosiery, but buyers are
still cautious in their operations.
FoEEioN Dry Goods were almost uniformly quiet in first
hands, as usual at this time of year; but the most staple fabrics
remain steady in price, and stocks are in pretty gooci shape.
There was a steady call by retailers for small assorted lots
of seasonable goods, but the business done by jobbers was only
moderate in the aggregate.
