London, Saturday, May 24, 1884.
The weather during the past week has been very brilliant,
and the reports which have been received regarding the growing crops are, with scarcely an exception, of a very encouraging character. Some assert that rain is required, and no doubt

also said that,
appearance of the cereal crops is promising,
and vegetables are increasing in abundance.
The money market is also in an easy condition, and yet, in
spite of all these favonible conditions, business is still in a very
unsatisfactory state. The trade which is the most active, and
apparently the most remunerative, is that for wool, the public
sales of colonial descriptions which aie now in progress having
exhibited a firmer tone since their commencement a fortnight
ago. The uncertainty of the political situation, no doubt, has

past twelve months, and there are certainly no present indications of any retrograde movement. This is obviously a fact
which should engender confidence in the future.
The Bank of Rngl.and rate of discount remains at 3*2 percent,
and although no activity has been apparent, the open market fe

current season will be a short one, as there will be supplies of
newly-harvested produce at market at an earlier date tlian
snal. Un loubtedly the proapact for consumers is a very satisfactory one, and the only encouragement which is likely to
accrue to British farmers is this that there is a promise of a
crop of good quality, which is a very essential result wfien so
much competition exists. The intrinsic value of the crop is
enhanced considerably, and less difficulty will be experienced
in securing a ready sale. The crops, however, both here and
abroad, have to pass through some critical stages before we
can congratulate ourselves over another "harvest-home." The
following ara the estimated quantities of wheat, flour and Indian com afloat to the United Kingdom; the supplies from the
Baltic are not included, but these are now increasing in importance.

Exchange.—The market for sterling was still considerably
unsettled during the past week, owing to the movement of
foreign capital in connection with the purchase and sale of
stocks on foreign account. But on the whole the market hasbeen stronger, owing to the continued scarcity of commercial
bills.
The posted rates were advanced two or three times
during the week, and now stand at 4 S5i| and 4 87i^, with concessions of about 1 cent per £ on actual business.
Quotations tor foreign exchange are as follows, the prices
being the posted rates of leading bankers:

YUKK., FRIDAY, JUNE 6. 1SS4-6 P. M.
The Money Market and Financial Situation. The past
seven clays have shown evidences of a further improvement in
the general tone of the financial situation. One fact which contributed to the restoration of confidence was tliat on last Saturday the New York banks published their usual detailed statement of the condition of each of the banks in the Clearing
House Association. The banks are still using the Clearing
—
House certificates, but the amount outstanding is being graduIt is even complained of in some quarters that
the banks are excessively anxious to retire these certificates,
and that in their determination to get the cash to do so they
are to some extent refusing their customers the accommodations they are entitled to. The banks, however, are very
cautious, and will not retire the certificates faster than the
Bituation waiTants.
There have been no further bank troubles in any part of the
country, excej^t a disposition on the part of savings depositors
in Wasliington to withdraw their money from the banks there.
Buttliere have been a number of disturbing features connected
with railroad properties. Thus the Philadelphia & Reading has
again passed into the hands of receivers, though the coupons
due June 1 on the general consols of 1911 were paid by the Drexels in Philadelphia.
So the Texas & Pacific did not meet its
interest payment on the Eastern Division consols, but had the
Mercantile Trust Company buy them instead. Then tliere
have also been renewed disquieting reports about the losses
incurred by the Louisville & Nashville through the operations
of its late President; but tliese reports, though they liad a ba<l
effect on the price of the stock, have been dejiied. The furtlier
decline in the bonds of the New York West Shore & Buffalo
road is accepted as evidence that the companj''3 finances are in
a more unsatisfactory condition than had been supposed, and that
the funding scheme is not meeting with the success anticipated
for it. On the otlier hand, the settlement by compromise, on
Thursday, of the long-pending and acrimonious litigation
between the Elevated railroad companies in this city is calculated to have a good effect on the market generally.
There has been no change in tlie general condition of trade
and industry throughout tlie country in the last week. The
iron and anthracite coal interests remain depressed, but this
is partly due to the competition of bituminous coal and to the
increase in the producing capacity of the antlu-acite mines.
The grain movement via the Western trunk-line roads is still
large, and, with the prospect for good average cro))s of all the
small grains in till parts of the AVest, there is abundant ground
for taking a hopeful view of the outlook there.
The New York money market continues very quiet. The
field for employment of money on collaterals of railway
stocks has been so diminished by the shrinkage in value of
the stocks ;ind the much more conservative policy of the banks
that rates for call loans have been quoted at from 13^ to 4 per
cent during the week. These rates, however, have been
largely nominal, and the attempt to borrow to any extent
would probably show that the banks are doing comparatively
little, and what they do is nearer 6 per cent than lower figures.
In time loans there has been very httle done, though rates may
be quoted at from .5 to 6 per cent. The rates for mercantile
discounts remain unchanged at 5i^ and 6 per cent for two and
four niontlts on endorsed paper and at 6 and 6'^ on single
names.
The last weekly statement of the averages of the New York
banks was much more favorable than was generally expected
by the public.
It showed that by the contraction of only
^8,529,200 of their loans the banks had increased their reserve
of legal tenders and specie $2,578,000. This, together with
the reduction of $8,214,000 of their dei^osits, left their average
deficiency below the required reserve only $1,975,625, as compared witli a deficiency of $6,007,125 a week previous.
The statement of the Bank of England showed a loss of
£1,600,000 for the week. The reserx-e was also reduced to 4Q'':^
per cent, from 48 1-10 per cent the week previous. The Bank
rate of discount remains unchanged at 2J^ per cent, though
the rate on the street is If'g. The weekly statement of the
Ban of France showed a gain of 1,812,000 francs in gold
and 3,562,000 francs in silver.
The following table shows the changes from the previous
week and a comparison with the two preceding years in the
averages of the New York Clearing House'banks.

points and the land grants 4. The Louisville
general mortgages were depressed by the rumors of the company being embarrassed for ready nionej'. The Kansas
Texas issues were affected by the si me causes that depre;sed
Pacifies, and the Ea.st Tennessee .5s bx- the finanthe Texas
cial difficulties of Mr. Seney.
The West Shore 5s were lowe*
from the faci that no progress has been made toward a financial scheme for the relief of the company.
Many of the other
speculative bonds were depressed by the difficulty of using
them as collaterals for loans. Tlie settlement of the elevated
railroad difficulties helped the Metropolitan Elevated fii'sts.
The Oregon Short Line 6s also re-acted from their extreme
depression of last week.

(For the year ending Dee. 31, 1883.)
The first annual report of this re-organized company is jtjst
published. The remarks of the President, Mr. Orland South,
are given at some length.
&
This company is tlie successor of the Marietta
Cincinnati
Railroad Company as re-organized.
Under date of April 9, 1884, the President says " Negotiations for the sale of the Old Line,' between Main Line Junctson, near Canaanville, in Athens County, and Moore's Junction, on tho Marietta Division, to the Marietta Mineral Railway
Company, have been progressing, and have about reached a

:
"Showing an increase of |!64.80H 13 in 1883, or 4J,^ per cent.
The minimum rental of §37,500 per month has been promptly
paid, making a total of $450,000 for the .year, and the sum of
^G,7a9 for account of 1883 in addition. Under the new lease,
$450,000 is all your company should receive until the earnings
exceed !j;l,75o,000 per annum. The experience of a year's
operation under the lease gives us the most satisfactory evidence that tiie lessees will carry out their undertakings and
obligations in good faith. It is their evident purpose to make
your road equal in all respects to tlie best of the Western
trunk lines—a result which tliey will very soon reach if they
continue the work of improvement and development with the
far characsame ability, energy and liberality that have thus

" The intervening petition of this company in the foreclosure

Louis Kailroatl Company), in which the claim of this company
to priority in tlie distribution of the proceeds of the sale of
the Indianapolis & St. Louis Railroad was made, was formally
submitted to the court in the early part of 1883, after full
argument, but no decision has been rendered at this date." * *

'Wliile this result is not gratifying, yet, when all the circumstances are considered, it may not be found altogether discouraging. The crops of the year, both on the line of the road
and on the line of its principal Western connections, were
unusually light. Mineral interests, particularly the manufacture of pig iron, constitute a large element in the local business
of the road. These interests have everywhere suffered a very
discouraging depression, the effect of which has been felt not
only in respect to the industries directly concerned, but in all
the collateral branches of traffic. In the month of February,
1883, the road suffered greatly, in diminution of revenue and
in inca-ease of expenses, by reason of the then unprecedented
flood, which caused an almost entire susjjension of freight business for many days, and entailed a largely increased expense in.

and in- places wholly, subftierged. Besides, the beneficial
effects of the new equipment were not felt til the later months
of the year. An examination of the earnings and expenses by
months will show that the n?t earnings for the half-vf ar ending December 31 were ^34;J,019, wliile for the half-year ending
Juno 30 they were only $158,023.
" With fair crops and a revival of the iron industries, supplemented by the additional equ!]>nicnt now on the road and yet

The plan of reorganization formed at a meeting of stockholders, held in Boston February 24, was approved, and the
directors were instructed to execute proper conveyances when
the stock and bondholders shall have signed their assent, which
is being done at the office of the International Trust Company
in Boston; and in case the requisite assents shall not be' given,
it was voted that the February committee shall continue to act
for the protection of tlie equitable rights of the stockholders.

in the net earnings of $42,011.
"Judging by the present condition of the road-bed, track,
locomotive power, passenger and freight equipment, it ia fair
to believe that the operating expenses charged to maintenance
of way and motive power, for the next two years or more, will
be considerably less than for several years past.
"Sales of tlie consolidated bonds have been made to the
amount of $13,000. the proceeds of which have been applied to
the payment of the cost of the branch to Mount Wasnington,
as will appear by reference to the financial statement. The
sinking-fund bonds due in 1889 remain as stated in the last
report.
"The negotiations for the renewal of the contracts with the
lower roads have been continued during the past year without
arriving at an entirely satisfactory result."

Mexican Central. The committee apjKiinted to consider
the proposition to fund the coupons falling due on July 1 was
not reiidy to report on Thursday. The directors, however, informally considered the matter, and though they passetl no
resolution, there is reason to think that the holders of bonds
will be asked to forego interest until the road earns it.
The Boston Advertiser says: "It appears that the annual
interest now amounts to $2,560,250, or |213,350 per month.

cent, which would leave net |)er month $125,000 Mexican
currency, equal to about $104,000 in United States money. The
subsidy can be expected to average $90,000, making $194,000
per month available for interest. There is besides to be provided for the interest on the year loan of $1,000,000 and some

the attorneys of the company, James E. Gowan and Samuek
Dickson, agreed in suggestingto the Court for appointment a^
receivers the names of Edwin M. Lewis, George de B. Keim„
the President, and Stephen A. Caldwell. The court acted in
accordance with this suggestion, and in the decree ordered that
an injunction should i.ssue against the defendants to restrain
them from interfering with the receivers, that a master should
be appointed for auditing the accounts of the receivers, and
that a bond of §500,000 should be required froM the receivers.
This bond was furnished at once.

Since that time the anthracite coal trade has suffered from
over-production, and the jiartial suspension of mining has been
a necessity. Since the beginning of the Reading's present
fiscal year anthracite mining has been susi)ended 61 days in
all.
The Reading has needed a larger production than is possible under the circumstances in order to earn its fixed
charges."
Rome WatertOTvn & Ogrdensburg.— At the annual meeting
of this company on June 4 a statement of tlie operations of
the road for the year ending May 31 was presented from wliich
the following figures are taken

The decrease in gross earnings and the reduction in expenses
were in part caused by tlie giving up of unprofitable through
traftic.
There has been paid on account of the Carlyon accident, not included in the above statement, the sum of $83,162.
It is estimated that $5,000 more will cover the whole cost of
that accident.
Since Jan. 1, 1883, over 14,000 tons of steel
rails have been purchased, of which more than 12,000 tons
have been laid, making 208 miles of steel track now on the
road.
Five hundred freight cars and six locomotives have been
to the equipment during the year; $650,000 of consolidated bonds have been sold to obtain the money necessary for
purchase of steel rails and to pay a portion of the floating
debt. The latter^is less than one-half wliat it was one year
ago. The company still owns $566,000 of consolidated bonds.

—
Texas & Paciflc. Notice was published that the coupons
due June 1, 1884, of the consolidated mortgage bonds of the
Texas & Paciflc Railway Company, Eastern Division, would be
paid on and after that date at the Mercantile Trust Companj',
120 Broadway. But the holders on presenting the coupons for
payment at the Mercantile Trust Company received a statement that the Mercantile Trust Company was authorized to
buy the coupons of these bonds; the Mercantile Trust Company
buying the coupons for the Missouri Pacific Company. It is
stated that the Texas Pacific Company did not have the money
to meet its June interest, and that the Missouri Paciflc advanced the money for this purpose, taking tlie coupons as security.
The interest due June 1 amoimted to about $275,000.
To reporters Mr. Jay Gould, the President of the Texas
Pacific, said it was not a default^ and it did not mean, as reiwrted, that there was an intention to apply for a receiver for
the road. Tlie Texas
Pacific was operated under contract
by the Missouri Pacific. The accounts of the two roads were
necessarily kept together to a great extent. It was often the
case that the roads owed one another. The present aiTangement whereby the Missouri Pacific bought the Texas Pacific
coupons was nothing new. It had been done two or three
times before. Nothing would have been thouglit of the matter
if the Reading's coupons had not been bought by Drexel
Co.
Pacific would earn enough during the year to pay

&
the coupons.
A. L. Hopkins, a director, said that the Texas & Pacific iust
earned its way last year. Business had be<?n light this spring,
but the outlook for the remainder of the year was favorable.
Uiiiou Pacific— The Boston rrajwc;-^/?^ says : '-The auditing department of the Union Pacific at Omaha telegraphs that
the April expenses were $98,000 less than in 1883, and cannot
-vary $3,000 from this upon the actual figures.
As the estimated loss in gi-oss earnings was $247,000, this would indicate
a loss in the April net earnings of only $150,000, which is a
considerable improvement over the statements of the first
three months."
Tirginia State Bonds.— The amount of Virginia State
bonds presented for re-funding in May was $391,790, making a
total to date of $4,405,898. The total issue of 3 per cents is
$2,731,728. Of the amount surrendered in May, $168,168 was
in 10-40 bonds and coupons; $37,407 in consols; $63,180 old unfunded bonds and interest and $23,035 in other securities.
Wabasli St. Louis & Pacific- The receivers of the "Wabash
Railroad were ordered by Judge Treat of the United States
Circuit Court, to protect notes falling due May 31, amounting
to $223,333; also tliose falling due on June 14, amounting to
$85,000, and all other secured notes of the company maturing
pending furtlier ordei-s. The Iron Mountain Road consented
to the terms of the order.

Weilnesday's business, when the renewal of excessive rains in
the Southwest caused a movement in the fall montlw, at some
advance. Yesterday, with Liverpool doing rather better, the
turn of prices was generally upward, September closing i> points
dearer. There seemed to bo no longer any doubt that the
northern parts of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi have suffered so much from frequent and heavy rains that the prospects for a good crop in that section are seriously impaired.
To-day, with a further improvement in the Liverpool market,
a slight advance wa-f made, the offerings from sellere being
very small. The close was firm, and, as compared with the
close on Thursday of last week, there is an advance of a few
points for tho next crop. Cotton on the spot has not been so
largely dealt in as in the previous fortnight. Neither the demand for export nor for home consumption has been maintained; yet a very fair business has been done on both accounts. Quotations were on Monday reduced l-16c. To-day,
there was a good export business, and middling uplands closed
firm at 11 9-lGc.

Receipts from the Plantations.— Tlio following table is
prepved for tlie pnrpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from tlie plantations. Receipts at tlie outporta are sometimes misleading, as they are made \ip more largely one year
than anotlicr at tlie expense of the interior stocks. We reach,
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
like the following.
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Bouthem consumption; they are simply a statement or the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the outports.

Flour has been dull for most descriptions, and prices have
been depressed. There has been really no change in the general position of the market. The supply, though not what in
times of greater activity would be called at all excessive, is,
nevertheless, in the existing circumstance8,quite ample. To-day
the market was dull and weak.
Wheat has baen fairly active on speculation, but the fluctuations of prices have been within narrow limits; latterly a
slight decline has been recorded.
There has been a larger
foreign demand, and on Wednesday nearly 250,000 bushels
were purchased by exporters. It is noticeable, however, that
any attempt to advance prices causes a sudden falling off in
the export trade, just as a decline in prices has precisely the
opposite effect. The crop advices have been favorable. Bulls
in Chicago have at times sold very freely; they express disappointment at the slight decrease in the visible supply in
this country, while the fact that the supply there at this late
stage of the season is not only large but composed mostly of
contract grade, also exerts a depressing influence. The near
approach, moreover, of the time for new wheat to arrive
likewise causes some apprehensions at Cliicago, especially as
the heavy carrying charges have the effect of keeping the
wheat there. To-day the market here was irregular, opening
a fraction lower, but recovering later, owing to a pretty good
export demand, and advancing J^c. to Ic. No. 3 red sold at

week were 9,680 pMskagee, of which 1,4M were tbippad to
Oreat nriuin. 819 to Argentine Republfo, 17!} to Veneznelft,
183 to Hayti, 90 to New Zealand, &c.
There
a oontiniied
light demand for all deecriptione of staple cotton good* at flrat
hands, and the jobbing trade was of moderate proportions,
though a trifle iM'tter than the previous week. Some makes of
goods are doubtless accumulating because of the protracted
lull in the demand, but the most desirable fabrics are not in
excessive supply as yet, and prices are maintained with a fair
degree of firmness. Low-grade brown and bleached goods aro
barely steady, and buyers of "round lots" can readily obtain
concessions as an incentive to liberal operations. Print cloths
were quiet, and the ma^et closed easy at B^^c. for 64jc64a
and %}ic. for .'i6xfl08, some sales having been made (in exceptional cases) at a fraction under these figures. Prints ruled
quiet, but woven wash fabrics, as chambrays, seer-suckers,
block plaid ginghams, &c., were in pretty good demand, and
a fair trade was done in printed lawns and piques.
Domestic Woolen Goods.— The demand for clothing woolens was light and unimportant, but there was a steady moTement in cassimeres, suitings, worsteds, &c., on account of
former orders. Spring woolens were lightly dealt in by
clothiers, but a moderate business was done by cloth and dry
goods jobbers. Cloakings were in irregular demand, but on
the whole quiet, and ladies' cloths, tricots, Jersey cloths, and
stockinettes were in limited request. Satinets were somewhat
sluggish in first hands, but stocks are in pretty good'shape,
and prices remain steady. Kentucky jeans ruled quiet with
agents, but considerable sales were effected by large jobbers.
Flannels and blankets were mostly quiet as regards actual
business, but more inquiry for these goods has been made by
intending buyers. The demand for dress goods was chiefly
