In 1880-1 the amount thus spent was even greater, being $2,285,689. The feature disclosed by these figures, aside from the fact that the outlay has been adjusted to meet the company's yearly earnings, is, that in the last two years the amount devoted to improvements, &c., has been only about one-half what it was in the two years preceding. We suppose that tho outlay might be still further contracted if the necessity existed, and yet only the company's officials can tell. We have raised the question, not to answer it, but simply to show its importance, for it $1,300,000 $1,300,942, spent, the previous year, but thia number is caused by an increase in tho of first-claas passengers carrie<l, and not by increase in charges. crease in the number reflects a decrease Tho gained.

Week after week, the value of securities has been depreciating, and yet there is no actual break-down. The profits of late.years, notwithstanding opinions to the contrary, must have been very great, for had they not been so, we could not have borne the heavy strain upon our resources. If the present condition of things continues, a critical moment may arrive, but there is reason for believing that the worst has been encountered, and that the future may be looked forward to with some confidence. The money market has been easier in tone, and the supply of floating capital has increased. Even the Stock Exchange settlement has exercised but little influence, and short loans are now obtainable at 1 per cent. A fair quantity of mercantile bills has been sent up from the country for discount, and it is therefore presumed ihat more mercantile business is in progress. Manufacturers are becoming busier in connection with the autumn trade, and especially so in the department for wool. The Board of Trade returns are indicative of improvement, and the crop prospects being very favorable, there is no reason why we should not work upon substantial bases. The weakest point is that the counti-y is not confident regarding the pohtical situation. The state of Egypt has gone from bad to worse, and we are quite at a loss how to define the future. This is a great incubus to business, and its removal would be the dispersion of a very threatening cloud. The Bank of England return is satisfactory, and it indicates that there is a larger supply of unemployed money than had been anticipated. There is an opinion, therefore, that the discount hou.ses committed an error when they raised last week theh- rates of interest for deposits to the extent of a half per cent. During the current month gold coin will be returning from provincial circulation, and the money market will be easy. The discount houses, tlierefore, will not be able to employ theh deposits to any great advantage.

These rumors have naturally an adverse influence, as they keep tlie public away from the markets, and restrict business to a very material degree. It is, however, a satisfactory feature tliat, although the general public are not buyers, they are not heavy sellers. The recent arrangement of the account indicates this in a prominent manner, heavy charges having been made for the loan of stocks in nearly all departments. This augurs well for the future, and it would seem that there is even now an opportunity of making profitable speculative investments. 13.311,81)8 1.1,771,159 U.9i;7.1.7 22,452.099 11,943,257 2(i,^87,it29 •20,737,126 13,591.760 15,971,259 21,306,083 23,610,700 26,522,419 Coin and bullion In both depiirtmeuts.. 24,836,531 Proportion of reserve 16-36 to liabilities Bank Zig p. rate The Bank June Rates of interest at Bank Rate.

Rates for call loans during the week on stock and bond collaterals have ranged at 1 to 18 per cent, and to-day at 2 to 4 per cent. Prime commercial paper is quoted at 53 ^«? 6 per cent. The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed an increase in specie of £389,000, and the percentage of reserve to liabilities was 4678, the same as la.st week; tlie discount rate remains at 3 per cent.

The heavy still decline in securities and large demand for money here and tho purchase of st6ck8 for foreign account were reported as the principal causes for the lower prices for bills.

What might occur as the shrinkage of months of bad business and decreased railroad eaminjQi^ is brought about in a single week by the pressure on the mnricet from the causes above indicated. If there was c ••r of the vitality behind certain stoclcs which exists -y times, it might bo thought that the present overaold conditions would place tbe shorts in a most dangerous position when prices might be jumped up 15 or 20 ixiints in a day or two; but as it is there is little use in (ireuicting anytlung abosit the course of prices, since the parties who in tiniee past have usually supported their respective stocks now generally abandon them. The only stocks recently supported have been the two Gould specialties Missouri Pacific and Western Union Telegraph — —and Delaware Lackawranna & Western.

This company owns a interesting position as a of western country. It railroad key to which traffic in is located in a most an important section is at present leased for thirty years to the Denver & Rio Grande Railway Company, and forms the connecting line for that road from tlie Colorado border to Ogden, the point of junction of the Central Pacific, Union Pacific and Utali Northern roads. Tliere are at least four great companies, any one of whicli might like to own or control the Denver & Rio Grande Western. There is, first, the Denver & Rio Grande, whicli is a narrow gauge road, and the parent company for wliich tlie D. & R. G. W. was built, and to which it is now leased for thirty years at a rent.il of -10 per cent of the gross earnings. But the lease is under litigation, and the lessee seeks to have it annulled. Secondly, the Union Pacific might well like to control tliis road and thus resume its former position as arbiter of rates west of Denver. Next is the Central Pacific, which might find the D. & R. G. W. Road a convenient through connection to the East via Denver. Then comes the Chicago Burlington & Quincy, which could by a sliort western extension from Denver connect at the Colorado line with the D. R. G. W., and tlius form a line from Chicago to Ogden, and compete more sharply tlian ever with Union Pacific. Therefore, if the present Denver Rio Grande Westem lease should be annulled, it hardly seems probable that the long in road would remain "out the cold" as a property not & & wanted by any one. The report of Mr. W^. J. Palmer, the President, is for the year 1883, but his remarks are dated as late as May, 188i. Mr. Palmer naturally gives his own views of the controversy between this company and its lessee the Denver & Rio Grande. The Denver & Rio Grande Western Railway, under the lease to the Denver & Rio Grande Railway Company, turned over 368 miles of road, as follows AUGUST 1, 18S2. Miles.

P. T. Junction to Colorado line MAY Bait Lake City to Total miles Ogden 175 91 21, 1883. 37-46 368-00 [Vol. XXXVm. Mr. Palmer remarks "The lease of this road to the Denver Rio Grande Railway Company took etfect August 1st, 1883, wlien l^a miles were turned over. By the 1st of June, 1883, the whole line, from the Colorado border westward to Ogden, amounting with branches to 368 miles, began operation. The average distance vrorked during the 17 months from the beginning of tlie lease, August 1st, 1883, to December 31st, 1883, was 363 miles. Tlie gross earnings (after deducting those from construction material) were $96.5,399, equivalent to $3,591 per mile per year, of which 40 per cent rental amounted to an average of $1,036 per mile per year. The interest per mile, which eventually is to average 6 per cent upon $16,000 per mile of bonds, to-wit, $960 yearly per mile, is temporarily (by reason of uncompleted line) up to $1,13.5 per mile. "The above result includes 10 montlis which elapsed before the completion of the tlirough line. Since reaching a connection with the Central Pacific Railway at Ogden about June 1st, 1883, the gross earnings have been $633,333, or at the rate of $3,899 per mile per annum. Tlie rental during the same period, $348,933, or at the rate of $1,160 per mile per annum. The rental earned was therefore at the rate of (per year) .•f!l26,710 : & Total interest per Total interest per annum on guaranteed boU')S auuum on all bonds issued 407.880 411,000 "Althougli the rental earned slightly exceeds the interest, the results for tliese first 7 months are not so important of themselves as from the indication they afi'ord of the earning capacity of this line under normal circumstances. The hue being new, the business of couree had to be entirely organized and developed." * » * "In the lease between the two companies, provision was made for vesting the actual management of the leased property in a manager to be selected and appoiitted by the Trustees of tlie Western Railway bonds, unless tlie lessor and lessee should, within a re.isonable time, agree upon a person mutually satisfactory. They did, however, so agree at th€ beginning, and appointed Col. D. C. Dodge, of Denver, one of the ablest and most liighly respected railroad managers in the Western country, with twelve years railroad experience in the Rocky Mountains." * * * " In violation of this condition of the lease, the new President of tlie Denver & Rio Grande Railway Company, on tlie 3d day of March, this year, issued his order undertaking to appoint Mr. Ricker General Superintendent," * * * "and the executive of the Denver & Rio Grande Railway company undertook to force his Superintendent on the Western Railway until enjoined by tlie Utali courts from interfering with the author"The lessee now ity of Col. Dodge under the lease." * * » asks in the pending legal proceedings that the lease be declared » " * « The President of void and not binding upon it." the Denver & Rio Grande liailway Co. claims, in his recent annual report, to have expended towards finishing the Western road, in accordance with the contract,' to Dec. 31st. 1883, the sum of $656,370." " * * " The report of General -Manager Dodge, accompanying that of the referees appointed by the lessor and lessee companies, will show in detail the condition of the road when and as turned over to tlie Denver & Rio Grande Company under tlie lease, and the amount required to be expended to put it in good order and condition. This amount was found to be $173,088, wliicli has been cliarged by the Western Railway Company to the Construction Company, and credited by the Western Railway Company to the Denver Undoubtedly a certain Rio Grande Railway Company. amount lias been expended by the lessee since possession, in making improvements and betterments, as it was bound to do, and as this company is obligated to p.ay for to tlie extent and value agreed upon between the parties from lime to time sucli payment to be in bonds or stock or such other securities and evidences of interest as may be coiisi.sti!nt with tlio legal powers of the lessor, and as will be found most available to reimburse the le.ssee for such outlay. But this company lias no way of ascert.Tining concerning such improvements, because of the failure of the Denver & Rio Grande Railway Company to set going tlie office of the joint comptroller, provided for by tlie lease, and mutually agreed upon since, to be Mr. Wm. M. Spackman." * * * "A word as to the future: The Denver «S: Rio Grande Westem Railway Company is without floating debt. Its outstanding bonded indebtedness amounts, temporarily, to $18,750 jier mile, at 6 per cent, wliich will be reduced to $16,000 per mile when certain lines, upon whicli a large amount of work lias been done, are completed and track laid upon the same. "Its line is part of the most central of the great trunk lines or routes across the continent. It connects Colorado and Utah, the two most central and promising mining States of the West —one yielding $33,000,000 and the other $8,000,000 of buUion per annum. "For more than one-lialf of its length it lies within coniparatively easy reach of coal, the best of which, the 'Pleasant "Valley deposit,' is a ten-feet seam of excellent coal, without a particle of slate, from which, during the past winter, 8.000 to 10,000 tons of coal per month were mined and shipped. From these mines westward to the Pacific Ocean, in California, no coal glance at the map worthy of the name has yet been found. will show the importance, and significance of the line. That its earning power should be gauged solely by the result of the first seven months is of course illogical; but even in the face of this disadvantage the earnings would unquestionably have yielded a satisfactory surplus over the interest, had it not been for the washouts and the railroad war, which together reduced the earnings at least one-third." * * * "As regards the le.ise, while it would be simply suicidal for the Denver & Rio Grande Railway Company to bring about a ' & ' ' A — : Junk 38, 1884. : . .

Prices liave fluctuated widely, not only from one day to another, but in the course of a single day. There was some buying for the rise, on the belief that prices had fallen low enough to make such operations safe, and there was at times a demand to cover contracts. But each fresh advance brought forward a fresh array of sellers, and there being little heart to the buying movement, values again fell off. Foreign advices, and especially Manchester accounts, liave not been encouraging to the 'bull" party while crop accounts have so far improved that some extravagant estimates of the yield next season begin to be put forward. There were irregular declines on Saturday and Monday. The house of Staber & Co., cairying several thousand bales for the "bull" account, failed, causing much depression of tone. Tuesday there was a firmer opening, followed by a sharp decline, due mainly to the failure of the banking house of M. Morgan's Sons, large dealers in exchange. On Wednesday, some demand to cover contractb, with partial revival of specidative confidence, caused a re-action toward better prices, but it was not sustained, and on Thursday there was a fresh decline. To-day the market opened weak and declined 9@]8 points, closing, as compared with last Friday, 26@29 points lower for this crop and 12@ 16 points lower for the next. Cotton on the spot is decidedly lower. Tliere was a decline in official quotations of l-16c. on Saturday, Monday, and Thursday, and %c. on Tue^sday. There has Ijeen a large business for export and a moderate demand for home consumption. Stocks have undergone a rapid reduction, but the pressure to sell has not abated. To-day the market was easy, but without further decline, middling uplands closing at llj^c. The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 802,400 For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week bales. 34,256 bales, including 19,529 for export, 4,737 for consumption, bales for sj>eculation and in transit. Of the above, were to arrive. The following are the official quotations for each day of the past week. ' The Sales and Peices of Futubes are shown by the followng comprehensive table.

Fridat, p. H.. Juuo 27, 1884. There was during the past week a continuation of the quiet tone which has lately characterized the wholesale branclies of the dry goods trade, and but is improvement in the demand little looked for until shortly after the coming holidays. jobbers who make a point Loeal of closing out their open stocks of domestics, prints, ginghams, dress goods. &c., preparatory lo taking their semi-annual account of stock, were enabled to effect liberal sales of such goods by means of low prices the regular jobbing trade was very quiet. ; but Business continued commission houses representing domestic manufacand transactions with importers were few and unim- light with turers, portant. An blankets was the main feature auction sale of about 3,000 packages colored of the week. The sale largely attended by buyers for all sections of the country, the entire offering was disposed of, prices realized were unsatisfactory. and well There a very sentation of package buyers in the market, most of to be in very good spirits, begin operations for the financial upheaval was and distributed, but the is fair repre- whom seem but they are evidently indisposed to trade until later on, the late fall and some impairment of banking facilities having rendered them exceedingly cautious. Domestic Cotton CJoods. —The exports of domeatics for the week were 3,088 packages, the principal shipments of which were made as follows : Oreat Britain, 1,826, U. : , S. of 77J .iiwnwia t78, MjuUcaaear MO.

Tranaaotiona ia man's-wattr woolens were chieHy confined to a few of the moat popvlar makes of fancy caasimeres, worsteds and overooatiiigs, and the movement in this connection was mainly reatrietad to making deliveries in execution of back orders, Satineta »«ra more or less sluggish, but a fair business waa done in K«ituoky jeans by agents and leading jobbers. Jeraey clotba and stockinettes ruled quiet, and there was only a limltad'call for cloakings, and ladies' cloths, but more attention was paid to repellents by intending buyers. White blankets met with increased attention, and there was a somewhat freer roorament in while and colored ilanneU, though the damaad liaa not become general as yet. Shawls and skirts were in maafra request, and seasonable worsted and all-wool dreaa fabrioa » ere quiet in first hands, but some fair orders for fall dl«M goo-is, as cashmeres, baiges, &c., were pliced with agents. Wool hosiery was fairly active and steady in price becatuj of light stocks on hand, but shirts and drawers continued qniot and in buyers' favor, owing to a redundant supply. FoaEiGN Dby Goods.— Aside from a very few specialtiea required for immediate consumption, the demand for imported goods was very light, and no new features have been developed in this branch of the trade. The auction season has practically closed, the offerings of the week having been cliiefly composed of 'odds and ends" from the stocks of importers, moat of which were sold at relatively low prices.
