The question is much discussed whether any
further attempts ought to be made to negotiate the
small remainder of the fries except in connection with
the four per cents.
This point, with some others
relating to the public debt, is likely to command much
discussion in Congress.
One difficulty which has arisen is from the filling
up of the foreign markets during the last five years
with a multitude of securities, national, industrial,
municipal and miscellaneous, which have more than
supplied the demand. It is computed that the savings
of Europe create every year a mass of new capital,
amounting to 3,000 millions of dollars a year or more.
Of this capital, part seeks investment in die ordinary
industries of the people, and part is utilized in numerous
ways, or invests itself in securities of various kinds.
Now, great as is the aggregate of the new capital thus
pouring every year into the money markets of Europe,
the demand for it has been greater still.
It is a remark¬
able feature of the last few years that a larger amount
of miscellaneous securities and government securities
have been thrown upon the money market than have
ever been
created in any like period before.
Some
persons ascribe this extraordinary activity to the Ger¬
man war
against France and to the unparalleled dis¬
placement of wealth which was caused by the payment
of the indemnity by France.
Two or three years ago

true one.

behave under this unparalleled contraction of currency.
Every well-informed banker and merchant well knows
that the French money market in this whole period was
tranquil and undisturbed. The depletion of the currency
to so enormous an extent had no power whatever to
make stringency or cause trouble.
What is equally
noteworthy is, that this period of contraction in France
was the very time chosen by French commerce and indus¬

progress. During the present year the contraction has

growth and the unparalleled increase of productive power
and negotiable wealth that have distinguished the age in
which we live, we shall not now discuss.
For the pres¬
ent purpose it is enough to point out the simple fact that
the rapidity with which bonds of all sorts have been
thrown upon the European money markets has received
a check, so that their hold on
capital is not What it Was.
As these inferior securities will no longer be such
formidable rivals of our federal bonds in the European
money markets, the time ought to be propitious for our
funding operations, and it will no doubt be'so regarded
by Congress and by the Secretary of the Treasury, in
carrying out the plan contemplated in the Funding Act

printers and dhooties have moved only in small lots ; full rates,
however, have been required. In other sorts of cloth, stocks

THE CHRONICLE
“Some time ago the present officers of the company sent an agent named
Tisdale to negotiate with the Mexican and Central American republics for
subsidies on account of the continuation of the present
steamship service.
He has just returner!, anfl reports that he has made contracts with these
gov¬
ernments, and the company is to receive the following subsidies
per annum
in gold: Prom Costa Rica, $13,000; from
Nicaragua, |12.004; from Honduras,
$12,000; from Salvador, $15,000; from Guatemala, $25,000; from Mexico,
$30,000 ; total, $107,000 in gold. Mr. Tisdale also made arrangements to re¬
cover $40,000 in gold from the Mexican
government, due for the past services
of the company.
“In addition to this the company yesterday received
telegraphic dispatches
from England announcing that a preliminary contract with the Australian
Government had been simied for a monthly mail service between
Sydney,
Australia, and San Francisco, wher-by the Pacific Mail Company is to earn a
subsidy of $450,000 per annum. To cap the climax of the several combina¬
tions, it was further announced that the Pacific Mail and Occidental and
Oriental Steamship Companies and the Central and Umou Pacific Railroad
Companies had formed a compact whereby the mail, passenger and freight
service between China,
Japan. San Francisco and New York should be per¬
formed as follows: The Pacific Mail Company now receives an annual
subsidy
of $500,000 for performing a monthly mail service between China and San Fran¬
cisco. The company gives a semi-monthly service which was
begun «t the
time of the granting of the additional subsidy by the United States. This
latter
subsidy was withdrawn, bnt the Pacific Mail Co. still continued to perform Ihe
service. It is now arranged ttiat the Pacific Mail
company shall only perform
a monthly service, and the Occidental & Oriental
company a like service. The
vessels of the two companies, sailing on alternate intervals of about fifteen
days will make a semi-monthly line between China and the United States..
The steamers will all run in connection with the Pacific
railroul, and the
Pacific Mail company and the railroads will divide the
earnings on the through
tea and
other business between China and the United States, one-half
going to
the steamship company and one-half to the railroads. The railroad
companies
also agree tq guarantee €00 tons of freight semi-monthly to
the coast steamers
of the Pacific Mail. This
freight will be of

character,
“The Pacific Mail steamers, which are thus released
by this arrangement
from the China service, will be placed on the Australian branch of the
line,
and will ply between Sydney and San Francisco.
Dispatches from the per¬
sons representing the Pacific Mail
Company yesterday stated that the pre¬
liminary contract with the Australian government had been signed, and that
the regular formal contract would be transmitted
by mail to receive the sig¬
natures and seals of ihe officers of the
company. Dispatches received from
San Francisco state that the Central Pacific directors have ratified the
contract
with the Pacific Mail, in so far as concerns their
company.
VTCE-rnESIDENT SCOTT*S STATEMENTS.
**
George S. Scott, the Vice-President of Pacific Mail, in explanation of the
events of the dsy, said last evening that subsidies ha<l been
obtained from
the Mexican and Central American Republics that will secure to the
Pacific
Mail Steamship Company a revenue of between
$90,< 00 and $100,000 per
annum, about $30,000 of which is from the Mexican Government alone.
The
greatest ad\antage of the contract with these countries will be in the exclusive
coasting trade of the Pacific shore, which will greatly add to the revenues of
the Company. The terms that have been
agreed upon with the Australian
Government for carrying the ma Is are .£89,950 for twelve round
trips. This,
however, is only
small part of the advantages of the arrangement with the
a
Australian Government.”

A number of them came

The Court has now decided against the
validity of the old bonds. The lands affected by the suit were

the exports of leading articles from the port of New'York since

(COMMERCIAL EPITOMK
Friday Night,’June 25, 1875.
Trad© this week has been
generally very fair for the season,
though receiving a check from the advance in rail freights west¬
ward, and from the approach of t lie National Holiday. The
weather has become intensely hot, and that has some influence in
retarding business. There has been, however, a partial recovery
of speculative confidence and increase of speculative action in
some of the staple domestic products, but, on the whole, a tame
spirit prevails. Exports begin to compare favorably with former
years, and prospects for the growing crops are even more favor¬
able than last week, in consequence of needed rain s having fallen
in many sections.
Values have latterly been affected to some ex¬
tent by a decline in gold and exchange.
The demand for coffee has been less active, and, with liberal
receipts, stocks at this port have increased to 68,115 bags Rio,
37,629 mats Java, and 16,773 bags and 5,000 mats of other growths.
Rice has remained quiet at 2£@2fc., gold, for Rangoon, in bond.
Molasses has increased in stock to 9,700 lihds. foreign and 4,0:)0
bbls. domestic, and Cuba refining, at a decline to 35@36c. for 50
test, has been more active. Raw sugars have declined £c. for
the medium and 3-16@tc. for the lower grades, and at this de¬
cline the close is more steady.

The revival of speculation in pork and, lard has been quite
marked, and yet feverish in tone, with the rise not well sup¬
ported. There has been more doing in pork for export, mainly at
$19 80@$19 85 for mess and $16 for extra prime. The specu¬

*Of
lation for the future in
mess has fluctuated between
$19 75@
$19 95 for August, and $20@$20 10 for September. Lard has
been scarce and firm on the spot, with very little doing; and the
speculation for the future has been mainly at 13f^l3 7-16c. for
July, 13£@13 9-16c. for August, and 13 9 166&13$c. for September.
Bacon has been dull, but pickled meats are quoted at £c. advance
for all descriptions. A report from Cincinnati says that the
Summer packing of swine thus far falls 150,000 below last sea¬
son, and yet prices of swine are fully maintained, so tha», whatever
is done is at high cost. Beef has been quiet. Butter has shown
some weakness in prices, especially for medium grades.
Cheese
advanced £c. early in the week, but, under large receipts and hot
weather, the improvement was yesterday lost. Tallow has been
active and firmer at 8|@8 15-16c. for prime. To-day, there was
an export demand for pork at $19 75, cash, and it closed at
$20
for August and September, and 500 tea. prime Western steam

change.

641166c. in casks and barrels.

Hides have been in good
steady ; dry Montevideo sold at 21c., gold, and
city slaughter ox, 9£c„ currency. Codfish in active demand, with
sales of Georges at $5 58 and Bank at $5.
Whiskey has de¬
clined to $1 19L
Kentucky tobacco has been very dull and prices nominal at
9£@ll£c. for lugs and 13@23c. for leaf; tue sales for the week
embraced 250 hhds., of which 200 were for export and 50 for
consumption. Seed leaf has been freely offered, and sales include :
Crop of 1873, 114 cases Connecticut at 7@10c., 100 cases New
York at 7@10c., 250 cases Pennsylvania at 7i'3)16c., 100 cases

the head of “other ports” include from Balti¬
1,095 bales to Bremen; from Boston 515 bales to
Liverpool; from Philadelphia279 bales to Liverpool.
[JtW Our telegram from New Orleans to-night shows that
the amount of cotton ou shipboard, and
engaged for shipment at that port, is as follows : For Liverpool,
9,000 bales; for Havre, 12,000 bales ; for Continent, 1,500 bales ;
for coastwise ports, 1,000 bales; total, 23,500 bales ; which, if de
ducted from the stock, would leave 23,500 bales representing the
quantity at the landing and in presses unsold or awaiting orders.]
From the foregoing statement, it will be seen that, compared
with the corresponding week of la3t seasou, there is an increase
in the exports this week of 17,621 uales, while the stocks to¬
night are 29,607 bale* less than they were at this time a year
ago.

complaints of cold nights producing lice. There has
been very little re-planting or additional planting. The stands are
good and
the plants forming well, but there are as yet only a few blooms. The

whole, rather quiet the past
grades have developed some weakness in
prices; but for the regular shipping extras the demand has been
active, and, as the supply is moderate, prices for these grades
are higher.
In the course of Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday
morniug shippers took about 12,000 bbls., mainly in the range of
$5 25@$5 75 for extra and fancy, part from city mills. The
extremes of grades, low as well as high, have been neglected, and
prices have been weak. Rye flour and cornmial have been fairly
active at full prices.
To-day the market was firm, but quiet.
The wheat market was active early in the week at higher

Receipts
were
small, and parties having freight engage¬
compelled to pay as high as $1 14 for No. 2
Chicago and $1 20 for No. 2 Milwaukee; but this demand having
been supplied, there was a sharp decline, until yesterday the
sales embraced No. 2 Chicago at $1 11 for July and $1 12 on the

THE CHRONICLE.
Late 6ales of amber Winter have been at $1 35. Receipts
markets have increased, and there is a
large
quantity afloat for this market, to arrive soon. The weather has
been favorable for the growing crop, and Winter wheat
rapidly
approaches maturity in middle latitudes, while further South reap¬
ing has made good progress. To-day, the market was firm at the
above prices, and No. 2 Chicago sold for the first half of
July at
$1 1U.
Indian corn has experienced a
sharp decline. Receipts have
not been large, but there has been a marked absence of
de¬
mand except at a concession.
Yesterday steam and sail
mixed
sold
at
89c.@83c., with choice
yellow at
S4c.
and white 85c.; and at these prices the demand was
very
good. Receipts are comparatively small at the West, but
stocks are liberal and crop prospects
favorable. To-day, there
was a further decline and the close was flat.
Rye has been
held higher, with a moderate demand at old
prices. Canada peas
scarce and firmly held.
Barley malt has been held above the
views of buyers, consequently little has been done.
Oats are decidedly lower.
Being in large receipt and stock,
with the growing crop making good
progress, there has been a
pressure to sell, and buyers have taken advantage of it to obtain
lower prices.
Yesterday, prime mixed sold at 62@63c. and fair
white 63c.@64c., a decline of 6c.@7c. from the
previous Friday,
and even at this concession the demand was not active.
To-day,
there was a moderate business in
prime mixed at 62c., but this
price was not readily accepted.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
Friday, P. M., June 25, 1875.
The market
for domestic
productions has continued exceed¬
ingly quiet the past week, with the one exception of woolen
goods for men’s wear, which, although slow, were in moderate
demand by clothiers. The season has so far advanced and the
pemi-annual stock-taking is so near, that jobbers are only
buying
from the commission houses such goods as are
indispensably
necessary for filling orders; consequently, agents’ sales were
extremely light. As, however, there was no great pressure to
sell on the part of manufacturers’ agents, prices, on the whole,
were
well sustained, although some lines of
fancy prints were
distributed at reduced figures on private terms.
The Plunkett
Woolen Company disposed of 512 cases Tip
top coatings, doe¬
skins and cotton warp black cloths at auction,
being the entire
production of these mills, which are closed for the present. The
prices obtained were fairly satisfactory on the average, although
returning no margin of profit to the manufacturers. The only
further event of importance in the domestic
goods’ market was
the transfer of Central Park shirtings, Passaic, Lodi, Bedford and
Albany prints to Messrs. Chase, Stewart & Co. Imported goods
have subsided into that condition of quiet which is incidental to
