has occurred in the

prices of breadstuffs and provisions, and the resulting
failures showing immense liabilities and only trifling
assets, confidence everywhere lias been disturbed, and the
public has been ready to believe even the most absurd
rumors.
At times large numbers of individuals, firms,
and more especially some banks, were claimed to be in¬
volved in a general ruin.
The foolishness of the latter
statements is readily seen, when we remember that the
banks hold the produce, and all they can lose in any case
is a mere percentage of its value, for the produce is worth
something ; and furthermore, that the Chicago banks, at
the last return, had over 3 millions in surplus and
undivided profits to lose before their capital would be
touched.
It is very possible that some one or more of
the number will suffer to an extent
there is no bank but
makes bad debts at times, for it is a part of the risks of
the business ; but there is not the least reason to suppose
that any of their losses will be so serious as to affect in
any degree the financial condition at that centre.
In the meantime, while there has been this general
agitation in business circles, the actual situation has been
improving day by day. In the first place the old stock of
wheat and provisions and corn has begun- to move freely
to market, which means better earnings for railroads and
a
setting loose of capital locked up in these articles.

prices the world will consume or take all we raise,
and that is just the situation in which
values, according to
the present outlook, are placed. Yet the weather
during
coming weeks may do much to change some of these con¬
ditions, especially wTith reference to foreign markets.
"With the heavy decline in breadstuffs and
provisions
and the large purchases for
shipment, it is natural that
foreign exchange should have shown a tendency to lower
rates. Still, the
offerings of commercial bills have not been
liberal, and they have all been promptly taken by bankers
remitting for securities, or by importers paying for goods, so
that at the close the market is
strong for sight and cables.
It is anticipated that this demand will continue
pretty
steady, at least until about the middle of next month, for
at this period remittances are

though prices are likely to be low,

fail to be plentiful in

bered, too, that the bills for the sales of breadstuffs, &c.
lately made at Chicago, may not be available here until
the produce is on
shipboard, which perhaps accounts for
the comparative
scarcity of commercial bills on the
market, notwithstanding the increased engagements of

staples gave such statements a presumption of truth and
therefore pretty ready belief.

a

have risen only about a quarter of a million.
Still, the
net are larger this
year than last (which is not the case
with the May
figures), and larger than in any other year
except 1881. On the lines west of Pittsburg, which are
separately reported, the deficiency in meeting all liabili¬
ties is only about $35,000 this
year, against a deficiency
of about $75,000 in
May, 1882. May is never a very
profitable month on these lines, though it should be noted
that in 1881 there was a surplus of
$144,000; on tlieother
hand, in 1879 the deficiency amounted to pretty nearly
$220,000. For the five months of the year the exhibit on
these Western lines shows improvement
on 1882, there
being a surplus of $350,000 in 18S3 against* a deficiency
of $68,000 a year
ago, but compared with either 1881 or
1880 there is not
improvement, but retrogression. In the

upon the business of all the roads out of Chicago, already

likely to suffer most, first because the Erie traffic up till
now has passed over it, and secondly because the new line
is situated close enough to that road to make it a strong
competitor for some of its local traffic. A little further
south, we find the Indiana Bloomington & Western, which
last year built 140 miles of road between Indianapolis, Ind.,

Lake Erie to Peoria, and to Decatur and thence (via the
Wabash) to St. Louis. This line of course is not going

There is, however, the French view of the case; and it

It was he who obtained
correct estimates of the future earnings and income of the concession for the present canal from the then ruler of
hosts of companies, and it is. for this reason that it has Egypt, Said Pasha—a concession which gave him “ex¬

through the Isthmus of Suez; and it is claimed that
concession is sacred
and inviolable for a period of
ninety-nine years, and that it absolutely precludes the
cutting of another canal by any one under any circum¬
stances.
Of the right of way across the Isthmus, M. de
Lesseps is, therefore, absolute master. His power in this
particular, if this be the correct view of the case, is more
absolute than that of any Khedive, any Sultan, or any
King. If the canal is to be widened, or otherwise made
suitable to the situation, it must be at the will and pleas,
ure of M. de Lesseps.
But M. de Lesseps is not so blind

THE NE W SUEZ CANAL.
Since

we

last remarked upon' this subject, M. de Les-

if recognizing so far at least the justice of the
complaints made against the Suez Canal and his man¬
agement, has taken certain preliminary steps to meet the
new requirements
of the situation. It does not appear,
however, that his plans are finding much" favor in
England. On the contrary, public feeling is increasingly
excited ; and the leading journals are unanimous in de
nouncing M. de Lesseps and his new scheme. Some of
the French journals are equally decided on the other side

aggression of England in Egypt. M. de Freycinet is
charged with letting England set one foot in Egypt and
then another, until now, according to the Paris. England
declares the house to be her own, and threatens to turn

foreigners out.
It might not be impossible to find some cause for the
state of feeling which prevads in England, in the resist¬
ance which was offered by M. de Lesseps to the occupation
of the Suez Canal by the British fleet during the late war
in Egypt.
It was certainly unpleasant for a nation like
England to have its action called in question in such cir¬
cumstances by the mere chief of a canal corporation ; and
there can be no doubt that the conduct of M. de Lesseps
at that time suggested some of the inconveniences insep¬
arable from the present canal management.
Situated as
England now is with Egypt on her hands, and with her
vast and ever-increasing interests in India and the far
East, the free and unqualified use of such a water-way is
an absolute necessity.
She cannot do without it. Look¬
ing to the future, it is quite natural that she should think
of the best means of providing against such recurring
contingencies.
But this is not the tole secret of British feeling towards
M. de Lesseps and his plans.
It is complained, as men¬

to his own interests

and to those of his friends as to force

English to build a canal for tbeir own special use;
and so he has consented to- improve the existing water¬
way sufficiently to make it equal to the requirements of a
rapidly increasing traffic. lie has done more—he has
asked the British shareholders to co-operate with him.
But to show that he is not dependent on the English
shareholders for carrying out the proposed changes, M«
de Lesseps has had the company vote the necessary funds. *
Two plans, it would appear, are under discussion.
One
of these is to cut a new canal parallel to the one now
existing. The other plan is to widen the present channel
from sixty to eighty metres at the suface.
When the
wiiening process would be completed, the canal would be
divided by some visible means, so as to make two chan*
nels.
R;sk of collision would thus be avoided, and
the

provision would be made for a traffic of eighteen million
tons.
The estimated cost is two hundred million francs.
Lesseps favors the widening process. Whichever
plan be adopted, it is thought that the work could bo

Comparatively few amongst the general public are bold
enough to invest during depressed times, and the depression in
consequence assumes a more acute form ; but, following the
same line of reasoning, the markets, when advancing, are stim¬
ulated by the additional buying from the public, and prices are
in some instances forced up at too rapid a rate.
There is prob¬
ably no danger of too rapid a movement just now, as heavy calls
have to be met by investors in new loans and public companies,
and consequently the ability to invest in the older loans and
undertakings is much curtailed. It is, however, very satisfac¬
tory to notice that all symptoms of panic have disappeared.

two serious failures have

resulted, while a much sounder state
things has been brought about. There is no doubt of the
fact that the brilliancy of the weather, the greatly improved
agricultural prospect, and the easier condition of the money
market, have been mainly instrumental in averting a semipanic, as the assistance which was granted to firms of respecta¬
bility in temporary difficulty would not have been afforded had
not such a condition of things existed.
The supply of bullion held by the Bank is now £21,396,032,
showing an increase of £569,100. At this period last year it was
£23,640,700, showing a present deficiency of £2,200,000. This is
a considerable amount to make up before the autumnal demand
sets in, but it is hoped that the stock will reach £23,000,000 before long.
A feature in the return is that some heavy
loans have been repaid to the Bank, the total of “other securi¬
ties” having declined to the extent of £1,015,604. The total is

ers on Saturday, June 23, in a suit
brought in the Richmond
City Circuit Court by the second mortgage bondholders. The
company defaulted in the payment of the interest on its second

also, rates of interest are easier, though the Bank
England still maintains its rate of discount at 4 per cent.
The Bank has been steadily gaining, however, in specie, the
aggregate increase since May 16 being now £2,581,000. The
gain in the last week was £346,000, and the percentage of
reserve
to liabilities is
41 5-16 per cent, against 41 last
week. The Bank of France, on the other hand, lost 1,454,000
francs gold and 1,144,000 francs silver during the week, while
the Imperial Bank of Germany lost 5,500,000 marks in specie
in the week to Tuesday.
The amount of quarterly interest payable on United States
bonds on July 1st is $7,375,841 on the 4s of the funded loan of
1870-71; also $1,938,705 for the semi-annual interest on the bonds
issued to the Pacific Railway companies. But, besides, there
is the much
larger aggregate of interest payable on the various
corporate securities of cities and railways, which will bring a
vast amount of money into the market during the next week
investment.

week and a comparison with the two preceding years in the

Exchange.—The market for sterling has remained dull and
nominally unchanged throughout the week. The off erings of
any kind of bills have been light, and the mercantile demand
for remittances lias been equally so.

sively dealt in at Chicago, viz., wheat, corn, provisions
and lard, has not only resulted in failures among the specutors in those commodities but has to some extent unsettled
confidence there. Bankers who have advanced money on their
merchandise collaterals have undoubtedly been obliged to
change their views somewhat as to their values, and have there¬
fore compelled a good many borrowers to liquidate.
The de¬
cline of prices is significant of the general acknowledgment
at the West that the crop prospects are at least as good as the
average of past years, and that with heavy supplies of wheat
left over from the crop of 1882 we shall have a good surplus for
export the coming fiscal year. Last year’s corn crop also was
considered a failure at one time, but has turned out a great deal
better than was thought possible ; and with the prospect of a
good crop this year it is anticipated that we may count upon a
lower range for the prices of provisions than has prevailed in
the past year.
With breadstuff's, provisions, cotton, iron, leather and other
staples at their present low prices, there is a vast deal more
safety in the financial situation than there was eight or nine
months ago, when the decline in these articles, and the conse¬
quent liquidation and readjustment of credits, began to cause
uneasiness.
The decline in breadstuff’s and provisions is too
recent to show its effects in a large increase in the export
movement yet.
The first effect of a decline in American mar¬
kets was to cause a decline in European markets, and this, of
course, was reflected back here.
But as soon as this vibration
is overcome, there will probably be quite a large export move¬
ment, which will affect the foreign exchanges in our favor.
The money markets of this country have had an excessive
supply of loanable funds, and rates for all classes of loans here
in New York have been at the lowest figures usually touched
at this season of the year. Call loans on collaterals of dividend¬
paying railway stocks have continued at 2(a}2% per cent, and
time loans for six or eight months at

State and Railroad

Ronds.—The general railroad bond

dull, and the principal activity has been in
special issues from special causes. The high-priced bonds have
been firm, the largest advance in any of that class being in
Northern Pacific firsts, which are r>8 higher, Central Pacific
gold bonds % higher, Union Pacific firsts % and Iron Moun¬

market has been

34 higher. In the speculative bonds Richmond &
Allegheny firsts have declined % from the closing price of
last Friday.
East Tennessee 5s are 1 per cent lower, Ohio
Southern firsts 2 per cent, Ohio Central firsts 3% per cent,
Rome Watertown & Ogdensburg 5s 34, Denver & Rio Grande
consols %. Dn the other hand, Atlantic & Pacific incoiiies
have advanced 1%.

tain firsts

in

The principal business in State bonds this week has been
the Arkansas issues in aid of railroads.
The Little Rock Sc
Fort Smith issues have advanced 10 points to 60.
The Pine
Bluff & New Orleans issues have advanced 2 per cent to 52,
and the Red River bonds, after declining 2 per cent, to 48, have
recovered to 50. In Tennessees the 6s new have sold at 3934
and the compromise bonds at 44.
The Alabama issues were

unchanged. Louisiana consols (ex-mortgage coupon) sold at
58%, and North Carolina 4s are higher at 80*4.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The decline in rail¬
way stocks, noted in our article of last week as resulting
from the unsettlement of confidence in financial affairs in
Chicago, was continued during the first half of this week.
There were also additional depressing causes in the reports
of damage to Western railroads and to the corn lands on the
Mississippi and Missouri river bottoms, and still other unfav¬
orable elements in reports of rate cutting and a possible war
These various influences operated to
among the trunk lines.
depress prices until about Wednesday. New York Central was
notably weak—mainly because of the talk of the competition
soon to be experienced from the West Shore road—and touched
the lowest price reached for several years. Since Wednesday,
however, there has been an improvement. The apprehensions
of further financial difficulties at Chicago have, in a great
measure, passed away, as have also
those of a rate-war
among the trunk lines, and it is believed the flood damages in
the West have been somewhat exaggerated.
These* circum¬
stances, together with the prospect of continued ease in money,
have caused a recovery of values to nearly what they were a
week ago, so that a comparison of prices with those of
June 22d shows but few' important changes, except where
there have been causes special to those stocks.
Among
the specialties, Long Island has advanced
4% per cent
and C. C. C. & I, 1%. Denver & Rio Grande has been very
weak, and shows a fall as compared with last Friday’s
closing price, of 2} per cent; at one time during the week
the decline amounted to 4% per cent.
Western Union is 1%
lower at 85%.
The aggregate of new securities listed by the New York
Stock Exchange this week was $107,000,000, and the Commit¬
tee adjourned over the summer months to October next.

In order to meet

the'extraordinary expenditures involved
making the needed additions to, and improvements of, the
equipment and property, the board deemed it wise to issue
$500,000 of the $1,000,000 of preferred stock aufhoriz-d by the
in

stockholders.

Of this amount 3,479 shares have been sold at

increasing the capital stock of the compary $347,900, and
expenditures made as follows : For construction, $56,990 ; for
equipment, $333,935 ; for real estate, $36,131 ; for account of
elevator contract at Toledo, $69,289—total, $496,347.
The'bal¬
ance of
expenditures, $148,447, was advanced from current
earnings.
The Yrice-Pre.'ident says: “There was
uniformly a gain in
the receipts upon all divisions, and a like decrease in disburse¬
ments with all, except the C. H. & I.
Division, where increased
expenses were occasioned by increased train mileage and extra¬
ordinary repairs of the equipment.” ** * * “ The Indiana
Bloomington & Western Railroad Company having during the
year completed their own line to the eastern connections, and
the Indianapolis & St. Louis Railroad

The earnings of the Indianapolis pool cover a period of but
five months, as the contract was terminated September 1, by
mutual agreement. The earnings from the Dayton pool, as
shown, are for a period of but two months.
The Clev. Col. Cin.
& Ind. RR. Co. having declined to pay the rentals provided for
under the terms of the contract, no settlements have been made
siuce that time, although the terms of the agreement are being
maintained in other respects, and settlements are awaiting au
adjustment as between the companies.
“The apparent decrease in rent and mileage revenue is ow¬
ing to the change in the forms of accounts, and the termination
of the rentals paid by the Indiana Bloomington & Western
Railroad Company for terminal facilities at Indianapolis during
«*

the previous year.”
“In July, 1832, the

traffic of the New York Pennsylvania &

line between Cincinnati and
Dayton; the Great Western Dispatch Fast Freight Line was
re-established via the C. H. & D. RR. and Ohio & Mississippi
Railway for Southwestern freight business; and arrangements
made with the Union Line for a portion of its business from
Cincinnati via Dayton; all of which have been worked satisfac¬
torily and to the advantage of parties in interest. An arrange¬
ment for the interchange of traffic with the Indiana Blooming¬

covering of contracts by the shorts, and then there has
temporary recovery of tone ; but latterly the steadily
improving crop prospects have led to heavy sales at Chicago,
including blocks held without margins, and yesterday the mar¬
ket there was reported panicky, the decline being checked only
after a fall of two cents, by the .covering of shorts anxious to
secure their profits.
Some damage has of late been done to the
crops in the Mississippi valley by floods, but not enough to have
any appreciable effect on pi ices. The spring wheat crop in the
Northwest is reported in line condition. On the spot No. 2 Mil¬
waukee spring has sold at $1 11. The export trade lias been
largely for the Continent. To-day the market was %@lc. lower
on the spot, and options sold early at a decline of /4@l%c.,t
though afterward there was some recovery. No. 2 red sold at
$1 12@$1 13 for July, $1 14%@$115% for August, $1 17%@
$1 17% for September and $1 1S%@$119% for October.
Indian corn has at times sold very freely for export, especially
during the last few days, but the speculation has decreased
materially. Prices have, as a rule, declined 1 to 2 cents, owing
to lower prices at the West and favorable reports regarding the
growing crop. Southern has been scarce in demand and
higher. To-day the market was firm on the spot, but % to
1 %c. lower for future delivery.

notwithstanding a positive loss to the miller, at the presen
prices, the production is not being reduced. Some holders have
been storing their consignments rather than accept the current
quotations, but the decline in wheat has led many to offer
their supplies freely. To-day the market was dull and weak.
Wheat has been fairly active on speculation, and latterly a
good export demand has prevailed. Prices, however, have de¬
clined from 2 to 5 cents per bushel, the greater reduction being
in options.
The depression has been due to the unloading by
bull operators both here and at the West and the steady decline
in the Chicago market. At times, as for instance early in the

dry goods j obbers were only moderate iu the aggregate.
The most desirable cassimeres and overcoatings are held with
rather more firmness because of the great curtailment of pro¬
duction that has lately taken place, but inferior fabiics are
more or iess unsettled and prices are
iu buyers’ favor. Clcakings and sackings have received more attention from wholesale
buyers, and there was a modelately increased movement in
wool flannels, blankets and repellents to the Ulterior.
Ken¬
tucky jeans have been quieter and satinets were slow of sale,
All-wool dress goods\in fall shades) w-.-re in
me request for
future delivery, and some good ordm’ - v.vu placed for Matelasse and honeycomb sackings foi next season. Hosiery and
knit underwear were a little more active in demand, and large
deliveries were made by agents in execution of former orders.
Foreign Dry Goods were dull in first hands and sluggish
with jobbers, aside from a very few specialties in which there
was a moderate business.
Prices of staple goods remain steady,
and a recent advance in raw silk has had a stiffening effect upon
silk goods.

The general jobbing trade was very quiet, but a liberal distri¬

was made by some of the larger jobbers, who make a practice
of closing out their open stocks at low figures when on the eve
of stock-taking. There are a great many out-of-town buyers
