Our readers will remember it well. It was in
1874 and following years.
The panic was-a thing of the
past, but our wretched currency system had- cast its
blighting influence over all industries, leaving us without
enterprise and at length without hope. How almost uni¬
versal was the verdict then; that railroad building in this
country had been pressed in advance of its wants fully
half a century.
Our wisest judges believed this so abso¬
lutely, that it was a matter of common daily discussion, what
form investments would take in the future.

Europe in a few weeks. The movement at Western
points has been a little irregular. New York exchange at
Chicago fell to 50 cents per $1,000 discount early in the
week, against that rate per $1,000 premium less than ten
days ago. This change was probably due to the demand

Altogether over 430,000 bales were exported, against only
about 285,000 bales last year, an increase of pretty nearly
150,000 bales. In the face of such an increase in quantity
the decline in price could have very little effect on the
aggregate value of the exports of that staple. We have
already referred to the case of New Orleans. The other
cotton ports show in general like results.

The case arose out of the foreclosure of a mortgage of

This was company to issue, after a foreclosure sale, certificates of

under

becomes of the interests of stockholders of the original
company ?
Mr. Platt, one of the old Sodus Bay &
Corning corporators, thought he had a right to come in as
member of any new organization.
An act of 1853 (Laws
of New York, chap. 502, sec. 2) declared that any stock¬
holder of a railroad foreclosed upon, should have the
right,
for six months after sa1^, to redeem proportion ably; that
is, he might offer to pay to the purchaser such proportion
of the price paid on the foreclosure sale as
his; shares
might bear to the whole capital stock, and might demand
the same relative interests in the
property. In practice
this has been found very inconvenient.
Upon the fore¬
closure of the old Oswego Midland it became an embar¬
rassing issue, and it was reported that $300,000 was paid
to extinguish the
supposed right to redeem. Mr. Platt
demanded this right in the Sodus Bay case.
The pur- ■
chaser refused to
recognize it.
And the Court of
Appeals has sustained the purchaser’s position. There has
not been,
indeed, an}^ distinct repeal of the law of 1853,
but the Court holds that it must be deemed
repealed by
implication, because laws passed in 1854 and 1874 are
inconsistent with it, and provide a new and different
way
for
proceeding after these foreclosures (Laws 1854, chap.
282; laws 1874, chap. 4 30). . The leading feature of the
plan they indicate is, that a new corporation shall be
formed to own and operate the
road; and the Court holds
that this is inconsistent
with, and therefore supersedes, the
former rule by
which the title to the property must be

This,
however, is no indication of a revival of shipments by the

regarding the situation in Ireland indi¬
; and the peasantry, backed
up by the Land League, are not only setting the law at
defiance, but setting up a law of their own. Collisions
between the peasantry and the police are of constant
occurrence ; and the Government,
it is said, is contem¬
plating the complete suppression of the League.
Mr. Gladstone and his associates in the ministry know
well that they will not be readily forgiven, if as the result
of excessive leniency, they allow Ireland to drift into a
condition of anarchy. The presumption, therefore, is, that
the rumor is well founded that that portion of her Majes¬
ty’s dominions will, if the collisions continue, be placed
under military rule.

Treasury operations, and the
great success of Secretary Windom in extending the fives
and sixes of 1881 at
per cent, May became a decidedly
buoyant month. In a word, there wras the immediate
prospect of such heavy disbursements by the Treasury up to
August 12 as would throw on the market a superabundance
of loanable funds, and after that date the gradual disburse¬
ment of perhaps $65,000,000 more during the autumn, in
payment for bonds to be called or purchased for the sink¬
ing fund.
The support lent to the Stock Exchange markets by the
monetary prospect was well backed up by the great body
of railroad capitalists and operators who were heavily
interested in the floating of new bonds and stocks—whether
of watered stocks or income bonds representing clear profits
to the holders, or new bonds on railroads in process of
construction, sold in the open market for cash.
The money market was easier and easier as the month
progressed, and on call loans the rates on the different
classes of collaterals were 2@4 per cent.
Time loans for
two to four months were made at 2£@3£ per cent, and
prime commercial paper sold at 3@4 per cent.
Investment securities of all sorts were in great demand,
and many of them rose to the highest prices ever made ;
United States fours of 1907 sold up to 11SJ.
Railroad
bonds advanced materially wherever their prices were not
already so high as to leave no margin for a further rise.
In speculative stocks and bonds the business was mod¬
erately active, but the volume of transactions was not up
‘
periods of stock
speculation. There were great combinations, negotia¬
tions and law-suits in progress, which engaged the atten¬
tion of many of the heaviest operators.
Also, the floating
of new stocks and bonds was the favorite game of the day,
as an
easy source of large profits, rather than the oldfashioned method of heavy bull or bear movements at
the Stock Exchange. The bears in stocks were temporarily
disheartened, too, as the plethera of money had given a
strength to prices which more than overbalanced in the
market the well-known loss of earnings on the western
railroads from January to April inclusive.
The general
tone of the stock market in the latter part of May was one
of great strength.
Foreign exchange made a considerable advance up to
the middle of the month, and the bankers even talked of a
possible export of specie; but, from the 15th, rates fell off,

[VOL. XXXII.
England' have not seen their
to making a further reduction in the Bank rate this week,
consequently the minimum quotation remains at 2/£ per
There has been
a
somewhat increased demand for money,
chiefly in connection with the new Hungarian loan, which has
been largely applied for, and the Bank of England return
shows a considerable improvement under the head of “ other
securities.” This increase cannot be due to improved trade, as
the
general business of the country remains much in the same
condition, and hence it is inferred that the directors of the
Bank of England have been granting greater facilities to the
Stock Exchange. The supply of floating capital in the Lon¬
don market, taken in conjunction with the limited trade de¬
mand for accommodation, justifies, no doubt,.a reduction of
the Bank rate to 2 per cent; but on the other hand the Conti¬
nental money markets are in advance of ours, and already have
a large number of bills been remitted to this market for dis¬
count.
This fact has, no doubt, induced the Bank authorities
to hesitate before making a
change, and the course they have
adopted is obviously judicious. At the same time, the New
York money market presents an easy appearance, and the sup¬
ply of gold on passage to this country is larger than for a
long time past, being about £800,000. With the usual limited
trade demand for money during the summer months, the con¬
tinuance of an easy money market seems to be assured; but
should the directors of the Bank of England decide on lower¬
ing their rate of discount to 2 per cent, it will be largely with
the object of affording to merchants all the facilities available.
General trade is by no means active, and the recent failures in
Amsterdam and Mincing Lane lead to the belief that some un¬
soundness exists. The iron trade is by no means in a satisfac¬
tory state, but the weather has been more favorable for the
crops, and some stimulus is expected to be given to general
trade. Foreign politics have, however, produced some distrust,
the Tunis affair and the state of Russia having been the causes
of some anxiety.
Should, however, the political events which
have recently manifested themselves cease to induce politicians
to believe that there is anything perilous in them, we may
hope, if we should have a good harvest and reasonably cheap
food, for more activity in commerce. The following are the
present quotations for money.

Union Pacific.—The United States Court of Claims decided
May 31 against the Union Pacific Railroad Company in the
suit for extra compensation for
carrying the mails. The court
held that the company is entitled to no more
compensation for
that service than is paid to any other
railroads, and that its
charter confers upon it no special
rights to demand a higher

The case, arose out of a difference of
opinion as to the

fix the rate at which the road shall
carry the mails under gen¬

The road has maintained that by its charter it has the
right to

Market and Financial Situation.—We immerge
this year with buoyant markets, and with the indust¬
rial and material interests of the country in a state of unwonted
prosperity. The tone of confidence now prevalent at the Stock
Exchanges has seldom been equaled, and this is in striking con¬
trast with the first of June last year, when we were in the midst of
one of the worst, and at the same time one of the most senseless,
depressions in the stock market tha thad ever been experienced.
We say one of the most senseless depressions, because the stock

obtain money at such low rates. Yesterday the State of Ohio
borrowed $2,800,000 on bonds the average length of time of

annum ; the bonds nominally bear 4 per cent annual interest,
but the premium at which they sold brings the rate which the
money costs the State down to a little over 3 percent. The tel¬

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The
stock market has
been somewhat variable in tone, but, upon the whole, prices have
been well sustained, and the prevalent feeling is one of con¬
fidence. As to any bearish tendency on the market, perhaps it
position of those who are inclined that
that they feel it is a dangerous time to fjell short,
rather than admit that prices, in their opinion, are not too high.
There are times when the possibility of working prices up ten or
fifteen points on particular stocks is such an easy task that short
sales become dangerous, whatever the range of prices may be.
As to the other side, the bulls, they claim that there is no reason
for any decline in the market before August anyhow, as the
usual influences of monetary ease, active support, &c., are all
against it, and by August, if the crop returns are very good,
there will be tlie basis for a new upward turn.
In particular stocks there have been less important movements
than usual. The elevated stocks are all comparatively strong, on
rumors of a pool in the stocks and also on the prospect of a
sharp fight against the Attorney-General in his suit for a
receivership of the Manhattan Company. The plan of a Chicago
line for the Erie Road appears to be well matured, and the
financial measures already perfected. The parallel opposition
line of Lake Shore from Buffalo to Chicago is also under con¬
struction, and the trunk line facilities to the West are certainly
destined to be increased. The Reading litigation, it is hoped,
will be terminated with the present refusal of the Supreme
Court to grant Mr. Gowen a re-argument.
The market to-day was fairly aetive, and prices at the close
would better define the
way, to say
showed
a
little weakness.

REPORTS.
of roads with which this road is connected
during several of
the winter months, which somewhat diminished the
gross
receipts while largely increasing the expense of carrying the
traffic westward,
whether this diversion caused
any other loss
is extremely problematical, as the through business, which is a
very large proportion of the traffic, continues to return a
very
small revenue per ton per mile. During the
year, 498 tons of
steel rails and 54,186 new ties were laid; 2,200 tons of steel
rails
have been bought, which will complete the steel track on the
main line. No satisfactory arrangements have
yet been made
for the connections of the Peterboro & Hillsboro road.
Nego¬
tiations are pending with the Central Vermont for a settlement
of differences as to through business.

Chicago & Pacific.—Over a year since Robert Law filed a
bill in the Superior Court against the Chicago & Pacific-Rail¬
road Company to restrain it from mortgaging or
leasing its
road to the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad. At a
stockholder’s meeting it was voted to give the mortgage lease
in defiance of the injunction. A supplemental bill was then
filed making the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul
Company a
co-defendant. A demurrer was then filed to the supplemental
bill by the Chicago & Pacific upon which the
validity of the
mortgage and lease was argued. On May 28, Judge Jameson
overruled the demurrer, holding in substance that the
Chicago
& Pacific Company had no power to execute the
mortgage and
lease because a domestic corporation had no
authority under
the statutes of this State to lease its road to a
foreign corpora¬
tion. The question as to the validity of the stockholders’ acts
was not passed upon. The defendants were
given time in which
to decide whether they would stand by their demurrer or
pro¬
ceed to the trial of the case.— Chicago Inter-Ocean.

Southwestern Railroad was sold at Chicago,

Mr. Gould’s railroad combinations in the Southwest, entitles
expresses with tolerable correctness the prevailing sentiment in
Texas, Missouri, &c.
The lease of the Mo. Kansas & Texas to the Mo. Pacific Rail¬
road Company for 09 years was ratified by the M. K. & T.
stockholders at their late meeting, as reported at the time in the
Chronicle. The Missouri Kansas & Texas already had a lease
of the International & Great Northern Road, and in ad¬
dition to that lease holds nearly all of the International
stock, which it purchased by the issue of its own stock,
two shares for one.
No copy of the M. K. & T. lease to
the Mo. Pacific has been published, but from official sources
we learn that the lease is for 99 years; the Mo. Pacific is to
operate the M. K. & T. road and keep it in repair; the lessee
assumes no liability for mortgage interest, but is to apply the
net earnings of the road, after all the expenses of operating
and maintenance, to the payment of interest on the general
consolidated mortgage bonds and all prior liens, and pay over the
balance, if any, to the M. K. & T. Company, to be applied
to the payment of interest on the second mortgage income,
or ether bonds, or for
such other purposes as the board
of directors may deem proper. If there is any deficit in the
income, so that it is insufficient to pay the obligatory interest
on the mortgage bonds, the Missouri Pacific may, at its option,
advance the necessary amount to pay such interest, and such
advances will be a charge against the M. K. & T. Company;
or in case of failure to make such advance for a
period
of .six months after
interest becomes due, the M. K. & T. Com¬
pany is to be entitled to possession of the railway and cancel¬
lation of lease.
Although this lease is for 99 years, it
is understood that it is likely to be a temporary arrangement,
reliminary to a consolidation of the Gould properties of the
outhwest. The foregoing sufficiently explains the press dis¬

Pennsylvania Railroad.—The Philadelphia Press reports
Pennsylvania Railroad Company has made arrange¬
that the
ments for the issue of
a new
four per cent
loan to the amount
of $10,000,000, the
proceeds of which will be used to. pay for
the Philadelphia Wilmington & Baltimore Railroad stock. The
directors had power to issue stock for the full amount of the
purchase money—some $1.8,000,000—but they chose to raise
more than half that amount by loan.
The promoters of the
loan will be Messrs. Drexel & Co., and Messrs. Kidder, Peabody
& Co., who take it, it was privately rumored, at 95. The form
of the loan is a four per cent registered bond, running forty
years from July 1,1881.
Every year $260,000 of the bonds will
be drawn by lot, paid and cancelled. The Pennsylvania Rail¬
road Company will deposit as collateral for the loan 200,000
shares of Philadelphia Wilmington & Baltimore stock.

50 per cent of its earnings. The debts upon the road, includ¬
ing the preferred stock and accrued interest, are something
over IJ2
millions, requiring an interest account of about
$120,000.
Without estimating for the large increase of
traffic business, which each year is sure to bring, and taking the
earnings as they are, we would have, after deducting one-half
for operating expenses and $120,000 for interest account,
$33,000 applicable as dividends upon the $1,000,000 of common

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.
Friday Night, June 3,1881.
Trade, for this 3tage of the season, is exceptionally good; in
fact, it would seem that in some staples the autumn season has
already opened. Needed rains over a wide area have improved
the prospects for cereal crops, though in sections it is claimed
that they have injured cotton somewhat. There appears to be
no apprehension of disaster to mercantile circles from any
source, and the prospects of business for the remainder of
1881 are as favorable as could be reasonably expected.

The above figures indicate an increase in the cotton in sight
to-night of 377,265 bales as compared with the same date of 1880,
an increase of 899,535 bales as compared with 1879 and an in¬
crease of 577,229 bales as compared with 1878.
In the preceding visible supply table we have heretofore only
included the interior stocks at the seven original interior towns.
As we did not have the record of the new interior towns for the
four years, we could not make a comparison in any other way.
That difficulty no longer exists, and we therefore make the fol¬
lowing comparison, which includes the stocks at the nineteen
towns given weekly in our table of interior stocks instead of only
the old
seven
towns.
We shall continue this double statement for
1879.

Akola Berar, East India, April 23,1881.
To the Editor
of the Xew York Commercial
and
Fin ancial Chronicle.
Sir:—The Manchester Examiner and Times bad sometime ago an
abstract from your paper quoting a passage from the Vicksburg Herald
regarding the present and next American crop.
The said paper says: “ Now, let us
firmly resolve to raise a 13-million
orop. The world can only stand such a crop once, and other countries
will have to
give up growing cotton,” or words to that effect.
The Vieksburg paper makes one mistake there,
seemingly. Omitting
tho question of
price, and assuming that it interests you to know down
to what rate it will
pay the Indian ryot, or peasant, to grow cotton, I
address this letter to you.
Practically, it matters little what the price is; for, as I am assured by
intelligent agriculturists, the ryot will sow cotton in rotation, no matter
what he gets for it. His expenses are very small, and if he only covers
them he would be content.
However, he would

and the question is.
therefore, what would pay him sufficiently to induce
him to sow a full share of cotton 1
Now, since I came here into the Berar

districts, thirteen years ago, cotton has paid the grower
better and better year
by year, in measure as the profits of the buyer up
country, the exporter, the shipper, tho agent at home, etc., were more
and more cut
down, and this is a fact that you should bear in mind when
calculating upon driving Indian cotton out of the market. Thus, thirteen
