to advance the price from time to time without

these bonds, as the annual report for the year ending Sept. SO, 1880, showed that the company had
reduced Its debt over $450,000 during the two preceding years, besides adding largely to the rolling
stock and machinery, and also purchasing 6.300
tons of steel rails. For seven months ending 30th
April, 1881, the net receipts exceeded $240,000, equal
about 6 per cent on its capital stock, after paying interest, rents, and all other fixed charges,
besides paying largo amounts for equipment, steel

The directors of the Bank of England have not seen their
way to making a further reduction in the Bank rate this week,
and consequently the minimum quotation remains at 2/^ per
cent. 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
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
securities."

mand for aecommodation, justifies, no doubt, a reduction of
the Bank rate to 2 per cent but on the other hand the Continental money markets are in advance of ours, and already have
;
a large number of bills been remitted to this market for discount. 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 supply 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 continuance of an easy money market seems to be assured; but
should the directors of the Bank of England decide on lowering 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 unsoundness exists. The iron trade is by no means in a satisfactory state, but the weather has been more favorable for the
crops, and some stimulus is expected to be given to general

for deciding upon a joint agreement entered into by the
directors of the Midland Railroad Company of New Jersey,
the Paterson Extension Bailroad Company, the Midland Connecting Railway Company, the North Jersey Railroad ComSany, the Water Gap Railroad Company, and the Pennsylvania

respectively, for the consolidation of said companies and railroads, which agreement will then and there be submitted for
consideration.
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

There has been a slight fall of rain, but although it has been
insufficient, it has done a vast amount of good.
The weather
has again become brilliant and the temperature is higher.
The crops are making satisfactory progress, but those newly
sown still require more moisture. On the whole, however, the
prospect is regarded as satisfactory. The trade for all kinds of
grain has been exceedingly slow, and holders have had to
submit to a slight redaction in prices in order to effect sales.
During the week ended May 14, the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to a4,110 quarters, against 26,793 quarters last year,
and 57,209 quarters in 1879 ; while it is computed that they
were in thfi whole kingdom 136,440 quarters, against 107,200
quarters and 228,850 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the
150, principal markets have been 1,360,135 quarters, against
1,121,895 quarters in the previous season and 2,031,487 quarters
in 1878-9 ; the estimate for the whole kingdom being 5,440,540
quarters, against 4,527,700 quarters and 8,130,000 quarters in
the two previous seasons respectively.
Without reckoning the
supplies of produce furnished ex-granary at the commenceseason, it is estimated that the following quantities
of wheat and flour have been placed upon the British markets since harvest. The visible supply of wheat in the United

an addition to the Hungarian debt. It has
been issued for the purpose of redeeming the six per cents, and
the operation having been placed in powerful hands, it has
been a complete success. The financial position of the AustroHungarian Empire has undoubtedly improved of late years.

Stated Court of Claims decided

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
May
31 against the
The case arose out of a difference of opinion as to the
construction of the charter of fha Union Pacific Railroad Company. The government has maintained that it has the right to
nx the rate at which the road shall carry the mails under general powers and has declined to pay more than a certain sum.
The road has maintained that by its charter it has the right to
charge the government the same as it does private parties for
similar services, namely, for express cars. In that way the
charter only gives the government the right to priority in transmission. The company recently sued the government for some
$1,200,000 which it is claimed the Treasury Department has
wrongfully withheld in violation of its charter.
Messrs. Fisk & Hatch have advanced the price of Elizabeth

Exchanges has seldom been equaled, and
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
panic of May and June, 1880, was bi ought about almost entirely
by influences exerted directly on the market for speculative purposes while the railroad earnings were large beyond precedent,
and the condition of the country was one of undoubted prosperity.
But the truth is that we had not then grown up to a
realizing sense of the developments which were actually in progress, and it would have been almost impossible to force the
stock decline of May, 1880, could the market have then had
before it, chalked up on its blackboard, the actual figures for
1880 as they were known at the end of the year the production
of wheat, corn and cotton, the railroad earnings, the returns of
immigration, land sales, &o. These general influences may not
affect the stock fluctuations of a single day, but in the long run
they tell, and not a railroad stock or bond is floated in New York
or London which is not in truth marketed by the assistance of
;
—
these material considerations.
There is nothing flctitions in the talk of a rapid and wondergrowth in the country, which must have a favorable bearing
ful
upon railroad and other property but as
upon stock prices, the great danger arises
;
and discounting

to its direct bearing
in over-estimating the

to be in 1895 or 1900, if every-

State and Railroad Bonds. State bonds have been onlr
moderately active. The Tennessees are awaiting further developments in the suit against the State authorities, and one report
said that the officers would disregard the injunction, claiming
that they were not legally bound by it. In Virginia the meeting
of a reaajusters' convention is not calculated to exert a favorable
influence for the moment, but it is possible that their movements
may develope so much of weakness as to fortify the position of
the bondholders.
Railroad bonds show a large business, distributed throughout
the list.
Boston Hartford & Erie bonds, which are merely the
equivalent of 'New York and New England stock, have led[ the
list in activity, closing at 85.
Erie second consols have also been
active and higher, selling ex-coupon at 106.
The Ecening Post money article, to-day, says " We neve r
remember the time when flrst-class investments sold so high a s
now, or, in other words, when first-class borrowers were able to
obtain money at such low rates. Yesterday the State of Ohio
borrowed $2,800,000 on bonds the average length of time of
which is less than four years, at a rate little above 3 per cent per
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 per cent. The telegraph reports that the State of Missouri recently made a short
temporary loan at plain 3 per cent. The New York New Haven
& Hartford Railroad Company recently borrowed $1,200,000 on
its Portchester & Harlem RR. branch at 4 per cent ; the Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad also recently sold $5,000,000 4
per cent bonds, which are now ruling at about par. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company have also recently issued a
$10,000,000 collateral trust loan, secured by their recent purchase of a controlling interest in the Philadelphia Baltimore &
Wilmington Railroad Company's stock, which bears 4 per cent,
and which will doubtless be sought by investors at par as soon as
:

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 confidence.
As to any bearish tendency on the market, perhaps it
would better define the position of those who are inclined that
way, to say that they feel it is a dangerous time to sell 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 the basis for a new upward turn.
In particular stociks 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
receiv^rship 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 construction, and the trunk line facilities to the West are certainJT
destined to be increased. The Reading litigation, it is hoped,
will be terminated with the present refusju of the Supreme
Court to grant Mr. G-owen a re-argument.
The market to-day was fairly active, and prices at the close
showed a little weakness.

Chicago & Pacific— Over a year since Robert Law filed a
bill in the Superior Court against the Chicago & Pacific Railroad 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 aiguea. 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:

brief but forcible, and at the present motnent it probably
expresses with tolerable correctness the prevailing sentiment in
Missouri &c
The' lease of the Mo. Kansas & Texas to the Mo. Pacific Railroad Company for 99 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 addition 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, bnt from official sources
we learn that the lease is for 90 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 other bonds, or for such other parpcses 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. Company is to be entitled to possession of the railway and cancelAlthough this lease is for 99 years, it

is understood that it is likely to be a temporary arrangement,

acific Railroad had leased the International & Great Northern
line for 99 years. This news was about two weaks old, as the
lease of the M. K. & T. carried this road with it.

Erie & Western.—The New York Lake Erie
Western Railway Company have acquired control of the
franchise of the Chicago & Atlantic Railway, extending from
Marion, Ohio, on the line of the New York Pennsylvania &
Ohio Railway, nearly to Chicago, and it is reported that the
company will at once complete the line to Chicago. By an
arrangement with the New York Pennsylvania & Ohio Company, the New York Lake Erie & Western will control the
entire line to Chicago, thus securing a through route between
New Y^ork and that city. Messrs. Kuhn, Loeb & Co. confirmed
the correctness of this report, and said that on behalf of a
syndicate composed of themselves, Winslow, Lanier & Co., L.
von Hoffman & Co., Woerishoffer & Co., Messrs. Ten Have &
Van Essen, of Amsterdam, and others, they have purchased
from the New York Lake Erie & Western Company an issue of
$6,500,000 of new mortgage bonds on the Chicago line, interest
on them being guaranteed by the New York Lake Erie & Western Company, and being additionally secured by a pledge of
the gross earnings of that company and of those of the New
York Pennsylvania & Ohio Company, on business derived from

a meeting and voted a consolidation between that road and the
Texas Pacific. The New Orleans Pacific is now being built, and
it is expected that it will be completed and in running order by
the first of September. The telegraphic report states that the
stock is to be exchanged for Texas Pacific stock, share for
share, and thus another important step will be taken in the

Pennsylrania Railroad. The Philadelphia Pregi reports
that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company has made arrangements for the issne of a new four per cent loan to the amonnt
of $10,0»0,000, the proceeds of which will be used to pay for
the Philadeluhia Wilmington & Baltimore Railroad stock. The
directors had power to issue stock for the full amount of the

more than half that amonnt by loan. The promoters of the
loan will be Measrs. Drexel & Co., and Messrs. Kidder, Peabody

of the loan is a four per cent registered bond, running forty

be drawn by lot, paid and cancelled. Ths Pennsylvania Railroad Company will deposit as collateral for the loan 200,000

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.
Friday Nioht, June 3, 1881.
Trade, for tlya stage 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 prospecte 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 following is a statement of the stocks of leading articles
of domestic and foreign merchandise at dates given :

glad to give because of the information it contains, althoug
we do not remember publishing the quotation cited.
Akola BEiLiR, East India, April 23, 1981.
To,the Editor of (he yew Torlc Co.m.mercial and Financial Chronicle.
Sir; The Matichester Examiner and Times had sometime ago an
—
abstract from yoitr paper quoting a passage from the Vicktburg Herald
regarding the present and next Ajueiican crop.
The said paper savs " Now, let-us flrmly resolve to raise a 13-mlUioa
:
crop. The world can only stand fttioli a crop once, and other countries
will have to give up giowing cotton," or words to that effect.
The Vleksburg paper makes one mistake there, seemingly. Omitting
the question of i>rice, and assuming that it interests you to know down
to what rate it will pay the Indian ryot, or peasant, to grow cotton, 1
address this letter to you.
Practically, it matters little what the price Is for. as I am assured by
Intelligent agriculturists, tlie ryot will sow cotton in rotation, no matter
what he gets for it. His expenses are very small, and if he only covers
them ho would be content.
ifowover, he would of course reduce the crop if others paid him better,
and the question is. therefore, what would pay him sufflciently to iudnce
lUm to sow a full share of cotton t Now, slnc« I came here into the Berar
or Oomraoteo districts, thirtccu yeai s ago, cotton lias paid the grower
better and better year by year, in measure as the profits of the buyer up
country, the cxiwrter, the shipper, the agent at home, etc., were more
and more cut down, and this is a fact that you should bear in mind when
calculatiLg upon driving Indian cotton out of the market. Thus, thirteen

has not yet set in. Carpets, worsted dress goods and shawls
remained quiet, but there was a freer movement in both hosiery

Foreign Dey Goods were distributed in fair quantities by
jobbers, bat the demand at first hands was comparatively
small, and few important offerings were presented through the
medium of the auction rooms. The most staple fabrics are
mostly steady in price, and the lessened supply has caused
some goods to be held with rather more firmness than of late.

business, but there was a steady movement in heavy cassimeres,

some attention was paid to flannels, horse blankets, &c by
early buyers, who are about makiog preparations for the fall
