(5) General prices are high. Certainly last year’s bad
crops cannot explain all this.
Have bad crops made our
imports so large ? Have bad crops made prices of articles
other than food and cotton high ? These are questions
worth a thought, and are having a decided influence among
those who know the disturbing power of a vicious currency.
Only look at the imports. For the last six months
ending with May 1—according to the Statistical Bureau’s
figures issued this week—they aggregate, notwithstanding
our
poor crops, 365 millions against 307 millions the pre¬
vious year.
Furthermore, the movement at New York for
May indicates that -when the general figures for that
month are made up they will show no. falling off, so that
compared with the previous year when there was a decline
in May, there will be a larger increase in imports than
even
the past few months have recorded.
Is not this
a surprising
growth in the consuming capacity of the
country for foreign merchandise, especially a country that
has suffered this year a more general disaster to its crops
than it has ever before experienced ?
Our population may
have increased in the year two per cent, but our imports
are
increasing at the rate of 20 per cent. We have
reviewed these trade figures in another column ; but to
bring the monthly movement since January in a clear form
before the reader we have prepared the following interesting

The inclination in

speculative circles is to think that
renewed activity and prosperity are wholly dependent upon
the next harvest.
An abundant production in every de¬
partment of agriculture would be a powerful and whole¬

spasmodic—the fruits of
the violent speculation then prevailing—and was preceded
and followed by a much smaller movement; it furnishes
no basis for present comparison, sinco this year’s figures
have been preceded and are being followed by similar
large totals, as we have more fully stated above.
Looking at this trade movement from another point of
view, wo may see further reason for anticipating, even
with good crops, somewhat less buoyancy than specula¬
tive circles now expect.
That is to say, our activity the
last two years ha.s been in good part the product of our
imports of gold ; but can wo this year anticipate any such
imports ? The above statement shows an apparent trade
balance in favor of this country for the four months of the
calendar year (including both specie and merchandise) of
$4,414,754, against $60,483,725 for the corresponding
period in 1881. If there is no decided check in imports
the apparent balance at the end of June, notwithstanding
our largo gold exports, will be against this country.
To
make up the true balance wo must add to this the sum of
say about 50 millions to cover freight, low and under¬
valuations of imported goods and interest on securities
held in Europe.
This of course must all be liquidated
either with produce or securities or gold.

Only the total expenses for the year are given in
the company’s reports, and the percentage fluctuates so
widely that it would be hazardous to take any particular
figure as a basis. In 1880 the percentage was 6411, in
1881 it was 76-50.
Our readers must judge for them¬
selves which figure would more nearly represent current
conditions.
We will say, however, to those desirous of
making calculations as to this year’s net results, that in
allowing for interest and other fixed charges, from
$100,000 to $150,000 must be added on to the amount
for 1881, because of the increase in indebtedness over the
amount outstanding at this time last year.
Reports have been current in Wall Street that as to
both Lake Shore and Michigan Central the figures above

within Michigan, and that, therefore, the showing is more

An
additional fact of interest is the total of the crop which

We reach that point by adding to the above the stocks
remaining at that date at the interior towns, less stock

sharp scrutiny of the varying prospects as to the
probable surplus for export out of this year’s crop of cerealsThe floating of railroad loans and the general abundance
of money for speculation in all directions have been so
greatly stimulated by the inflow of gold since 1879, that
a return movement of
any large extent could not be re¬
garded with satisfaction—though a moderate export of gold
might place a healthy check on financial kite-flying.
The money market was easy throughout, and the rates
for call loans were down to 2@4 per cent, according to the
collateral offered, but time loans on stock collateral were
•reluctantly made.
During the pending of the bank charter bill in Congress,
the demand for government bonds was very slack, and
prices fell off from the highest figures of April. For other
investment bonds the demand appeared to be less than is
usual in May, and for the lower classes of railroad bonds,
prices declined, in sympathy with the stock market.

The

Chicago & Northwestern Railway makes one of the
strongest exhibits of any road published this year, and the
semi-annual dividend on common stock has been raised to 3%
per cent, and the quarterly dividend on preferred stock to 2 per
cent.
The company has earned gross about $4,250,000 more
in the fiscal year ending May 31 than in the previous year,
and we should conclude that net earnings must be nearly
$2,500,000 more, while fixed charges have hardly increased more
than $350,000.
Expenses for the year have not been pub¬
lished, but an exhaustive article in the Chronicle of February
11, 1882, showed the increase in net earnings for seven months
of the fiscal year—June 1 to December 31—to have been
$1 ,387,275, and since then the increase in gross earnings for
the five months has been about $1,700,000, of which a good

But without regard
to these estimates, it is clear that the Chicago & North¬

surplus, and it must become a question in the management of
the company how the yearly surplus shall be disposed of.

State and Railroad Bonds.—There is nothing new in State
affairs, and the market for -Southern securities is very dull.
Tennessees closed

to-day at 57%.

Railroad bonds have been weaker in some cases, in sympathy
with the stock market, and this afternoon the Erie second
consols sold off to 90 ex-interest. Many of the new issues of
bonds have also been weak in the absence of much demand.

and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The week was
by the occurrence of the double holiday at the Stock
Exchange on Monday and Tuesday. When business was re¬
sumed again on Wednesday, there appeared to be considerable
strength in the market, and shorts were also inclined to cover,
so that prices became quite firm; but during the past two
days the improvement has been lost, and at the close
to-day there was decided weakness.
The strikes among
the iron men have been much talked of by the bears, and
to-day this was their best card# It is impossible to deny
that if the labor difficulties continued for a long time the
result would be damaging to commercial and railroad interests,
but it is more than probable that a speedy adjustment win be
made, as manufacturers having contracts to fill may accede to
the demands of their workingmen for the present, and shut
down afterward if they cannot make their business pay. The
weakness in stocks to-day was led by a decline in Jersey
Central to 67% on free sales, which were reported to be
for account of parties opposed to the Gowen interest. Read¬
ing was also weak as allied to Jersey Central, and because
the general mortgage bonds have not been called in as pro¬
posed, and no news of any success by Mr. Gowen lias been re¬
ceived. A drive was made on Erie in the last hour and the
price knocked down to 33%, closing at 34. Lake Shore an
Michigan Central have been rather stronger on their earnings
for three months, given above, and both the Vanderbilt an
Gould stocks were fairly supported to-day as compared wit
the rest of the market.
In Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania
Railroad stock has been rather weak in consequence ot its
large reported loss of earnings, but if these reports ^re.s^
stantially correct, and give a true impression of the busine
of the company, how mucli fairer it is that they should co
out now from month to month, rather than be held back
stockholders till the end of the year, as they would be n
back by most other companies.
It is another of those c
too, where the publication of gross earnings only, without
not earnings, would be positively misleading.

January, an important feature of which is that six
months’ notice is necessary before the contract can be abrogated.
“
In considering the net results of this year’s business, due
allowance should also be made for the large advance in the cost
of supplies and labor, which we, in common with all other
transportation companies, have experienced to our disad¬
vantage. The indebtedness of your company to the Panama
Railroad Company has been steadily and materially decreased
(to the extent of $278,216), as you will notice from the statement
of liabilities, and all of our payments on account of fixed
charges have been promptly and satisfactorily met. The steam¬

ships City of Rio de Janeiro and City of Para have been paid for
in full by an outlay of $523,767 since last annual report, and the
sum of $530,087 has been paid on the steamships J8an Jose* San
Juan and San Bias, now building at Chester, Pa.
Further
payments to the extent of $290,000 on the contract for these
three latter vessels have been provided for, and will be promptly
met as they mature.
The sum of $346,028 has also been
expended in extraordinary repairs on the following named ves¬
sels: Steamships Acapulco, Crescent City, Honduras, South
Carolina, Granada and City of Peking, ’with the result of
placing the company’s fleet in a most efficient condition. A new
treasure launch has been provided at Panama at a cost of
$4,833.”

ending Dec. 31, 1881.)

The full report

for thft year 1881 has just been issued. It
1881 was one of great activity, and there
were 381
miles of main track added to the system, with 32
miles of side track pertaining thereto. Mr. Wm. J. Palmer, the
President, remarks that the cost of the work as well as ad¬
ditional outlays upon further extensions, betterments and im¬
proved facilities, required the issue of $5,000,000 capital stock
and $1,000,000 consolidated bonds, but the proceeds thereof do
not enter into the account of 1881.
The mileage increased dur¬
ing the year from 636 to 1,067 miles, being the largest increase
in any one year. The increase in the average mileage operated,
as compared with 1880, was 66 per cent.
The increase in gross
earnings, as compared with 1880, was 79*5 per cent, which is
in excess of the increase in the average mileage.
In 1881 the
earnings per mile, on an average of 786 miles, were $7,945 05.
In 1880 the earnings per mile, on an average of 474 miles, were
$7,337 79.
Construction during the present year will be confined to
the completion of the Silverton extension and the Utah con¬
nection. Track will, however, be laid this spring on the 145
miles remaining to complete the branch from Alamosa to
Wagon Wheel Gap (60*7 miles) and on the 11T miles which
will complete the Blue River branch as far as Dillon, a point
85*6 miles distant from Leadville, or perhaps to Breckenridge,
nine miles further. The grading is completed on both these

continuance of the trust.
“Under the foregoing programme, the Oregon & Transcon¬
tinental Company has nearly completed over two hundred
miles of branch lines, and expects to complete, in the'eonrse of

the

present year,

a

total of about four hundred miles, to be

owned respectively by the following
companies : Tile Little
Falls & Dakota Railroad Company of Minnesota, Fargo &
Southwestern Railroad Company of Dakota, Jamestown &
Northern Railroad Company of Dakota and Columbia & Palouse Railroad Company of Washington Territory.
“

Negotiations are pending for bringing in the Northern
Fergus & Black Hills branch, under the same arrange¬

Pacific

ment, in which

case

one

hundred miles will be added to the

foregoing mileage.
In order to provide the
“

means for mileage already built
described, the Oregon & Transcontinental
Company has created a trust with the Farmers’ Loan & Trust
Company of New York for the purpose of placing with that
company all the bonds received in payment for the construc¬
tion of branch lines, not exceeding $20,000 per mile of finished
line, and of issuing thereupon an equal amount of its own
forty-year 6 oer cent first mortgage trust bonds, payable in
gold coin, with semi-annual interest, commencing November 1,
1882, and redeemable at not exceeding 105 and interest, by pur¬
chase or drawings under the provisions of their sinking fund.
These bonds will thus represent a triple security—a direct
obligation of the Oregon & Transcontinental Company, which
has no other bonded indebtedness; a first mortgage on com¬
pleted road not exceeding $20,000 per mile, and a guarantee of
income sufficient to pay interest and sinking fund charges on
these bonds by the Northern Pacific, making them a first-class
security in all resDects.
These bonds are offered to you at 90 and accrued interest.
Payment to be made in five equal instalments of 20 per cent
each, as follows: July 1,1882,20 per cent; Sept. 1, 1882, 20 pe

the

Total

week has been compara¬
tively light. Both Monday and Tuesday were observed as
holidays by nearly all the commission houses, and they experi¬
enced a strictly moderate demand during the remainder of the
week. The movement in foreign goods was spasmodic and
somewhat disappointing, and there was less animation in the

jobbing branches of the trade than might have been expected,
coiisidering the more seasonable condition of the weather.
Accounts from the interior indicate a slightly improved busi¬
ness at some distributing points, and reports regarding the
crops are in the main so satisfactory that the outlook for a
renewal of activity in the near future seems to be pretty well
assured. The tone of the market continues steady, notwith¬
standing the late lull in the demand, and values of the most
staple fabrics are unchanged, with the exception of ginghams
and print cloths, on which lower prices have been made during
the week, without materially increasing their sale.
Domestic Cotton Goods.—The cotton goods market has pre¬
sented very little activity, the demand having been of the same
hand-to-mouth character noted for

some

time past.

The

ex¬

port movement was of fair aggregate proportions, and in this
