.passenger traffic is large. The great complaint in the
commercial markets has been that prices were not remu¬
nerative. Only a little addition to the demand, however,
of which there seems at present to be good promise, will
rectify this. In fact there is this week a decidedly more
cheerful feeling in all departments of business ; labor
troubles also seem to be subsiding and the industrial out
look everywhere improving.
It is no surprise, therefore, that the stock market should
show more buoyancy and strength than it has for a long
time, and this was the more natural as there were many
special causes operating in the same direction. The upwTard
movement seemed to be inaugurated last Saturday by a
start in Central New Jersey, in which there was a large un.
covered short interest, the stock having been freely sold
by speculators in the expectation that it would decline
when the lease to the Reading had been consummated.
The price however was steadily pushed upward until the
leading shorts were induced to cover. The next decided
movement was in Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul.

aggregates $650,728. As the
net earnings last
year were $3,363,756, this is equivalent
to a gain of pretty
nearly 20 per cent, which must cer¬
tainly be denominated as a very satisfactory ratio of in¬
crease.
A noteworthy feature in the
April return is that
the corrected gross
earnings for that month exhibit a
small increase instead of a decrease of
$162,000, as the
earlier statement of approximate
figures made it appear.

With regard to the Union Pacific, as already stated, the

state that the gain in May, 1S82, was-$476,261, or

(!) per cent, and that, though the earnings of May,
1883, are $131,000 below those of that year, they are
$345,000 above those of 1881.
As to the small gain again recorded by the Chicago &
124
Northwestern road, as compared to the very large gain
made by the St. Paul, it is not very difficult to offer a few
explanations.
In. the first place, the St. Paul has,
as
said
a
month ago, a much larger mileage than the Northwest, a
good part of which is only just beginning to be developed;
in the second
place, the Northwest in May last year had a
heavier gain—$231,000, against only $90,000 on the St.
Paul; in the third place, the St. Paul, having extended its
line to Omaha last year, is now getting some of the Omaha
business, so that the Northwest’s percentage of the same
is no longer so large as it was; and, finally, the Northwest
appears to be suffering some loss of earnings from a falling
off (under a decreased demand for the product) in the
mineral traffic from Northern Michigan, in which
falling
off the St. Paul does not participate, since it does not run
into that region. The Northwest, as our readers know,
penetrates the Northern peninsula of Michigan by
means of its Peninsula
Division, and j thus secures for
itself the transportation of some of the ore taken from the
Michigan mines. The falling off is perhaps not very import¬
ant in amount of traffic, but as the Northwest
presumably
gets a long haul on it, the effect on earnings is quickly felt#

although in the aggregate the grain movement was
smaller than in April, 1882, at the Northwestern
points it
was
large and heavier than a year ago, the falling off being
entirely at other points. In May quite the reverse is true,
and though St. Louis, Toledo and Peoria exhibit
enlarged
totals, Chicago falls materially behind 1882. This will
appear from the following table of the receipts of flour and
grain at the principal lake and river ports for the four

last year that is here shown to
place at St. Louis and Peoria, we need not be
surprised to find the roads carrying to those points record¬
ing handsome gains. Take, for instance, the Missouri Pacific
running to St. Louis. Last year this road had a decrease
somewhat less than $30,000.
Thi3 year this is not only
made good, but largely improved
upon, for the increase
over
1882 aggregates $158,594.
Indeed, not only the
Missouri Pacific, but all the roads in the Southwest, show
very large gains on last year, which is particularly note¬
worthy from the fact that it is precisely these same South¬
western roads (barring
only one or two exceptions)
that made quite liberal gains in May, 1882.
On the Gould
Southwestern system the gain this year reaches the
large
aggregate of $432,848, and of the roads embraced in it we
see that the Texas & Pacific has a
gain of $75,459, after
having made a gain last year of as much
as
$139,435,
the Kansas &
Texas a gain of
$95,352 on a gain of $86,589 in 1882, and the Iron
Mountain a gain of $39,668 on $40,045 gained last year.

But the increase is not confined to these roads.

bushels last year, and 17,967,405 bushels in 1881.
Thus
while the movement was somewhat
larger than in 1882,
it was considerably smaller than in 1881.*
Particularly
noteworthy, however, is the movement at Chicago—
Chicago being the great Northwestern market. Here we
find that while all the items of small
grain record
an
increase, corn shows a very -heavy decrease, so
that the total
receipts of 'grain foot up only 6,040,717
bushels this year, against 7,111,875 bushels in the
same period
of 1882. Going back one year further,
to 1881, we get total
receipts still larger—namely, 7,446,748
bushels.
Compared with that year, though, the falling
off is not alone in corn, but in wheat and oats as
well, and
flour, too, shows a decrease, barley and rye exhibiting a
slight gain. With a diminishing grain movement, not
only last year, but again this year, it is not surprising
that Northwestern roads
(or at least those chiefly affected
by that movement) made only relatively small additions to
their May earnings in both 1882 and 1883. » On the other

hand,
Galveston, New Orleans and Norfolk, particularly
the first and last, have quite marked gains.
But aside
from a larger cotton movement, it is evident (from the
gains in earnings which they report) that Southern roads
must also have had a larger volume of miscellaneous
traffic.
In
of the earlier months of the year,
in com¬
paring the earnings of different roads for a series of years
past, we had occasion to remark upon the small gains
recorded by Southern lines as a rule, at a time when
Western roads were making such gigantic strides for ward.
The same remark certainly will not apply to the month of
May, for not only have the leading Southern lines improved
upon their earnings of last year, but they have done this
in the face of earnings last year which were considerably
above those of 1881.
Take the Louisville & Nashville,
for instance. In May, 18S2, this company made a gain of
no less than $120,000; yet this
year we find a further gain
of $92,485.
Or take the East Tennessee, whose growth
is slower—in May last year this road reported earnings
$23,000 larger than in 1881, and this year it "reports
earnings enlarged $47,000 more. On the Richmond &
Danville system we have not the figures for 188i, but the
earnings compare well with last year, on all except the
South Carolina lines, which show on the Columbia &
Greenville

a
small loss and
on
the Charlotte Columbia &
Augusta but
a small gain.

Fair orders were also placed for cotton flannels for future
delivery, but bleached goods and most descriptions of
colored cottons were very quiet.
Print cloths • were in
moderate demand, and prices advanced ten points about
the middle of the month, but there was a subsequent re¬

therefore, which have been for a long time past in a danger¬

have results adverse to many who speculate, but an improved
state of affairs will ultimately arise out of the operation, and
then the public will be inclined to come forward and buy, even
if the terms obtainable are less favorable than they are to-day.
A very encouraging feature is that the return of the Bank
of England is more favorable than had been anticipated.
Some
critics have asserted that the statement is a bad one ; but such
criticisms assume that the part of a mouth should, and can, be
crowded into a few days. If the rate of progress during the
next few weeks is in proportion to that which has been made of
late, the Bank of England will soon be in a satisfactory condi¬
tion. It is quite true that the proportion of reserve to liabili¬

44% per cent last year. But the more favorable feature is the

The increase of £273,084 of bullion in Bank is owing to the
return of coin from Scotch circulation, and of money circulated
during the Whitsun holiday, making the total stock now amount
£20,130,894, against £23,385,099 last year. The note circula¬
tion has been diminished by £320,510, and the increase in the
total reserve is therefore £593,594. The reserve is now £10,413,659, against £13,324,924 in 1882. Loans and discounts have
been repaid to the Bank to the amount of £1,281,391 ; but the
market has been drawn upon heavily, as “ other deposits” show
a falling off of £1,368,868.
As there are many who are in want
of money, the dividends due in July on the National Funds are
already being anticipated, and this is a sign that the official
minimum is not likely to fall below 4 per cent for a time at

during the week have been largely in demand,
and, owing to the settlement oh the Stock Exchange next week,
the inquiry is now strong.
As stated above, we have had another week of brilliantly
warm weather, and vegetation has made further considerable
progress. The prospect is regarded as more than usually satis¬
factory, and it has been improved to-day, owing to the steady
rain which is falling. It is impossible for the weather to be
more favorable to the crops than it is now; and although they
are backward they will not, in all probability, be much behind,
should the weather continue so genial as it is now.
The trade
for cereal produce has, in consequence, been dull, and the
quotations have been with difficulty supported.
The sales of home-grown wheat, barley and oats in the 150
principal markets of England and Wales during the first thirty*ight weeks of the season, together with the average prices
realized, are shown in the following statement:

—A new map of Minnesota
Dakota have just been issued
and another of the Territory of
by Messrs. Warner & Foote, Min¬
neapolis, Minn. These maps cover a section of the country the
rapid growth of which is simply marvelous, and where map
making is an operation requiring about as much activity and
enterprise as any business in the community. The maps are
handsomely executed on a large scale, and are well worth the
attention of all persons interested in that part of the country.

The Money Market and Financial
cidents the situation in this branch of trade is
more
hopefully
regarded.
The diminished production of iron, both from the
mines and the mills, will probably soon permit the
consump¬
tive demand to overtake the supply, and thus at least main¬
tain prices, if not soon advance them.
If the iron industry is
—as is often claimed—an index of the
general state of industry
and trade, it may be that the most unfavorable aspect of the
situation has been passed, and that any change is likely to be
in the line of
improvement.
The
general crop prospect has certainly improved, notwith¬
standing that the latest reports from Indiana, Illinois and
Ohio confirm the damage to the winter wheat crop.
But the
reports from the spring wheat region of the Northwest, and
from the further-west winter wheat States, are of the most
flattering character, and there is scarcely room to doubt that
the general crop will be at least a good average. Speculation in
various lines has increased lately, and the transactions in grain
and petroleum have been on a large scale in the last week. The
speculation in' grain has maintained prices at figures which
still operate against a free export movement, though wheat
has declined during the week in view of the improving
crop
prospects.
In the general monetary situation the features are
only
those usual at this season of the year. The domestic exchanges
are generally in favor of New York, and the accumulation of
funds here had given the banks of New York a surplus
reserve of $9,071,650 on last Saturday, against $3,951,100 on the
corresponding date of last year.
The accumulation of so
Jarge a surplus reserve this year was, however, about a
month later than last year, when it was $10,895,600 on
April
29th, and from that point declined to $3,951,100 by June 2d.
The cause of this more tardy accumulation of money in the
banks here
believed to be due to the fact that the volume of
products in the country to be moved this year was larger than
last year, and therefore the money was retained in the interior
longer. With the increase of money here, speculation has been
revived ; last week the banks increased their loans
$1,294,300,
the larger part of which was probably for speculative purposes.
was
Following this
advance in the stock market of from 2
in the last week, and an increased activity in the
speculation in grain and petroleum. Rates for money have
been nominally no lower than they were in the previous week,
but the supply of funds has been abundant at 2 to 3 per cent
for call loan so n stocks and 4 to 5 per cent per annum on the
same collaterals for time loans
running from 4 to 8 months.
The sterling exchange market has been very quiet, the
amount of business being small for the reason that the trans¬
actions in American securities on foreign account, as also
the exports of our domestic products, have been small.
Diminished imports of dry goods and general merchandise
have also made a light mercantile demand for exchange.

week and a comparison with the two preceding \ears in the
averages of the New York Clearing House banks.

Situation.—The im¬
provement in the general mercantile and industrial situation
in the last week lias been more in the subsiding of apprehen¬
sions of the future than in any actual changes in business
conditions, or in the volume of trade. Ten days ago there
•was a general feeling of distrust, on account of
apprehensions
of disastrous strikes and important failures, and a disorganiza¬
tion of the iron industry. The crisis, however, seems to have
been passed. Some furnaces have been blown out, the millowners declaring that they cannot allord to manufacture for
present prices, and at least one important failure—the Graf
ton Iron Company—has occurred ; but aside from these in¬

legitimate net earnings for the year were $346,173, after paying
interest on all the outstanding bonds of the Company.
In addition to the above, the sales of real estate were: Cash
received, $58,617; on time notes bearing interest, $23,488—total,
*•
$82,105.
Commencing January 1st, 1882, the plan was adopted of
charging, as an operating expense, a royalty on every ton of
iron ore and coal mined by the Company from its own lands
and on every ton of coke made, and these royalties were credited
to the proper capital accounts, lands or improvements, as the
case might be, thus reducing the amount at which such lands
or improvements stand on the books of the Company.
The
amount so charged and credited during the year was $83,687;
and while this is undoubtedly the proper course to pursue, it
should be borne in mind, when making comparisons with pre¬
vious years, that had the books been kept in the same way as
in those years, the net surplus for the year 1882, after paying
interest on bonds, would have been $429,861 instead of $346,173.
“The amount expended for construction and equipment during
“
the year was.as follows: Coal department (for mine

At

conference between President Gowea, of the Phila¬

Railroad of New Jersey, and holders of the income bonds of
the latter company, an agreement was reached for the settle¬
ment of the back interest on the bonds.
It was agreed that
the bondholders should receive in settlement of their claim
for back interest 10/£ per cent in scrip bearing 6 per cent in¬
terest, and convertible after 1885 into stock of the company ;
that the company should waive its right of redemption before
the maturity of the bonds in 1908, and make them also con¬
vertible after 1885 into stock, and that the bonds should be
entitled, hereafter, to 6 per cent instead of 7 per cent interest.

Keceipts from thb Plantations.—The
following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are some¬
times misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another at the expense of the interior stocks. We reach
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following. In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the prop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

India Cotton Movement from all Ports.—We have during
European Cotton Consumption to June 1.—We have received
past year been endeavoring to rearrange our India service
m as to make our reports more detailed and at the same time
more accurate.
Hitherto we have found it impossible to keep
oat of our figures, as cabled to us for. the ports other than
Bombay, cargoes which proved only to be shipments from one
India port to another. The plan we have now adopted, as we
iaave reason to believe, will relieve us from the danger of this
inaccuracy and keep the totals correct.
We first give the
Bombay statement for the week and year, bringing the figures
by cable to-day Mr. Ellison’s cotton figures brought down to
June 1. The revised totals for last year have also been re¬
ceived, and we give them for comparison. The takings by
spinners, in actual bales and pounds, have been as follows.

jeans were quiet as a rule, but very fair transactions were
reported in exceptional cases. Satinets have shown very little
animation, but stocks are in pretty good shape, and prices are
fairly steady. Many mills making men’s-wear woolens have
already curtailed production because of the unsatisfactory
state of the market (mainly caused by over-production), ana
many others are expected to shut down fur a time before the
close of the present month. Flannels and blankets have met

in commission and jobbing circles, but not more so than is
usually the case at this stage of the season, and a somewhat
better feeling has prevailed in regard to the future, because of
encouraging reports about the growing crops. Under the in¬
fluence of warm weather, the retail trade has at length started
up briskly, and jobbers have consequently experienced a
slightly improved demand for small re-assortments through the
