THE FIN AN CIAL SITUATION.
Further unfavorable developments in railroad and
industrial properties, together with a very close and
discriminating money market, have continued to keep
Wall Street in an unsettled state the past week. This
condition of money has also proved a severe strain and
borne heavily upon mercantile classes, as commercial
paper has been hard of sale; in fact, that market has
ruled almost stagnant. A feature, however, of the
monetary situation of a compensating character, is, that
the money pressure, so far as it restrains speculation in
commodities, is likely to prove a benefit to the country
at large, as that will tend to increase our exports and
decrease onr imports. Still another redeeming quality
is that for the time being dear money has checked gold
shipments, and that in turn has given opportunity for
the Treasury gold reserve to increase, though the accu­
mulation goes on very slowly considering the large
offerings of gold to the Treasury by the interior hanks
reported a week ago. In part explanation of the more
moderate inflow than expected, it may be said that these
offerings were conditioned on an exchange for small
bills, and the Department no doubt finds difficulty in
the rapid supply of that demand ; a further explana­
tion is that the gold offered is in some cases found to
he light-weight coin, which the statute does not allow
the Secretary to accept.
We need add but a word or two here with reference
to the developments in railroad and industrial proper­
ties which so largely have aided in unsettling the
market. The Reading report i 3 very fully remarked
upon in a subsequent article.
This report was at first
favorably received on the Street on account of the
small balance of floating debt shown; but when the off­
setting credits were more fully examined the public
took a less hopeful view, and after it was realized what
a large body of coal remained on hand, classed as a
quick asset, in addition to another large item for sold
coal not yet paid for, and all notwithstanding the ex
tremely favorable winter for the consumption of coal,
and finally, when a drop of about fifty cents in the
price of that commodity was announced, the
whole line of coal stocks was alversely influ­
enced.
The industrial stocks were likewise easily and
some of them very materially depressed under the ex­
treme rates for loans on that class of security, the dis
crimination against them being very marked because
of previous secret manipulations and general lack of
confidence in the little information given out with re­
gard to such properties. These two classes of stocks,
the coal and industrial, have developed greatest weak­
ness and done most to unsettle general values. The in­
crease in New York Central stock from 89 millions to
100 millions, and the purchase by the road of the New
York & ^Northern property, seem also to have been

[Y

ol

. L\L

viewed unfavorably, as Central stock became weak after
the news was made public. On the other hand the an­
nouncement that the switchmen at Chicago had deter­
mined not to strike was a supporting influence affecting
the roads centring at-that city, though the active money
market prevented any important improvement in prices
on that account.
Anxiety with reference to currency affairs has
greatly moderated the last week. While money re­
mains stringent gold will hardly be exported, but as
soon as a change in that particular comes, the move­
ment must to some extent start up again. This is
obvious from the present condition of our foreign
trade and from the special demand which the syndicate
that has just placed Austria’ s loan i 3 likely to make
upon us. We have explained the situation of this
requirement for gold from Austria-Hungary in a subse­
quent column. With reference to our foreign trade,
we have a fresh reminder of the situation in the issue
this week by Mr. Brock, of the Bureau of Statistics, of
the preliminary figures of fhe export of leading articles
for February (the details of which are given as usual
iu connection with our remarks on foreign exchange)
and in the statement of the imports and exports at
New York for February to be found in our Commercial
and Miscellaneous News.
It will he noticed that
our exports
of leading articles in February
1893 were only $40,982,776, against $66,324,280
in February 1892, and $54,963,232 in February
1891. That is a loss compared with 1892 of nearly 26
million dollars in that single month, and of 14 million
dollars compared with 1891. For an indication of the
imports for the whole country we find that the February
imports at New York were $51,828,975 against $44,354,000 in February 1892, or a gain of about 71 million
dollars; furthermore we have before us the figures for
the same mouth at Boston, Baltimore, New Orleans and
ten other cities which in the aggregate show a further
gain inimports of 41 million dollars— altogether, there­
fore, compared with last year there is a loss in the ex­
ports of these leading articles in February of 26 million
dollars and a gain in imports of 12 million dollars, or
an adverse change for the month of 38 milliou dol­
lars. In February 1892 our foreign trade showed a
favorable balance of 2 1 |- million dollars, and hence this
year the unfavorable balance is likely to be at the least
17 million dollars aud probably a little more than that.
With these much worse trade results than a year ago
we would expect, if all other things were equal, a de­
cidedly larger outflow of gold in coming months. But
there is another fact besides the temporary circum­
stance of stringent money which is acting in our favor,
aud that is greater confidence iu Europe in our securi­
ties, and consequently a larger movement of them
to Europe, mainly of bonds.
The Reading dis­
closures and bankruptcy very reasonably had an adverse
influence on this new demand. But that event is not
likely to prove a hindrance long, for no doubt the tide
in this matter of European investments has turned,
and the flow will be out instead of in during coming
months. We look too for a falling off in merchandise
imports, and it would not at all surprise us if the ex­
ports should hereafter make a better comparison with
last year than they have of late months, though the ex­
tremely low prices now prevailing for our breadstuffs
may prevent this latter condition from being realized.
As already indicated, money has been active this
week, but a change for the better developed as the week
progressed, aud yesterday offerings were freely made at

a
slight increase during February, the total hav­
ing risen from 532,375 tons at the beginning
of the month to 601,854 tons at the close. The in­
crease has occurred in face of a decrease of 43.214 tons
in the production of coal as compared with February,
1892. There had also been an increase in tidewater
stocks last year, and at that time the total of stocks
was larger than at present. It will be interesting to
see how the amount of coal apparently disposed of by
the companies, after allowing for the changes in
tidewater stocks, compares with previous years. Such
a comparison is furnished in the following.

Thus notwithstanding the severe weather the com­
panies apparently disposed of slightly less coal in
February 18*93 than in February 1892, though this
result is based only on the changes in tidewater
stocks; it seems reasonable to suppose that if we
could include also the changes in the quantity of
coal held at interior storage points, the showing would
be different. Moreover, we are comparing with a
period last year when the amount disposed of had been
exceptionally heavy, in great part no doubt as the
result of the formation of the coal combination
and the announcement of the intention to ad­
vance prices. As compared with 1891 the amount
disposed of this year reflects an increase of over 800,000
tons, and as compared with 1890 an increase of over
1 , 200,000 tons. For January and February combined
the 1893 consumption is in excess of that of any pre­
ceding year, standing at 6,254 400 tons, against 5,892,287
tons in 1892, 5,210,132 tons in 1891, and 4,016,752 tons
in 1890.

AU STRIA-H U N G AR Y’ S N E W CURRENCY.
Austria on February 27th opened subscriptions for
the 60 million florins of the 4 per cent Austrian Gold
Rente Conversion Loan issued to procure gold for mint­
ing purposes, and the transaction proved to he a great
success.
It seems that on the 11th of January an
arrangement was made by the Austrian and Hungarian
governments separately with the Rothschild syndicate
for takirig their bond emissions required in carrying
out their proposed currency reform.
In behalf of
Austria the syndicate took one-half of 60 millions of
florins at their own risk and the other half at option.
Subsequently, and about the last of January, it was
announced that under this arrangement with
Austria, and within ten days from the date of
the arrangement, 33£ million florins gold had
been obtained. It was to secure the rest of this 60
million florins, the portion which was taken on option,
and to place the whole of the amount in investors’
hands, that the subscriptions which were opened Feb­
ruary 27th were offered. The price between the syn­
dicate and the Government was said to be 95|, while
the price at which the 4 per cents were offered to the
public was 98£; the subscriptions reached over 600
millions instead of the 60 million florins wanted. Of
course only about 30 million florins of gold will now be
needed in response to these subscriptions (that is the
amount which the syndicate took on option), the gold
for the other half of the loan having, as already stated,
been provided in January.
This interesting occurrence in the progress of another
nation towards the reform of its currency, and the fol­
lowing letter of inquiry, have lead us to collect and give a
few of the details with reference to the present attempt
of Austria-Hungary to establish gold piyments.

No doubt currency reform in Austria has a
general interest in the United States. We wrote
briefly iu reference to it last September (page 485)
and have since noted the more prominent incidents
in the progress of the work. But the affair has alsoa special interest to the American public inasmuch
as the needed gold has hitherto been almost wholly
drawn from this country.
The Vienna corres­
pondent of the London Economist stated the charac­
ter of this movement from America, and the reason for
it, in the issue of that journal of September 17, 1892;
speaking of the Austro-Hungarian Bank and the rapid
arrivals of gold the reports of the Bank disclosed up
to that date (which was of course long before any por­
tion of the loan referred to above had been negotiated),
he writes that “ this inflow is progressing, although the
rates of foreign exchange are not very favorable, aud
it must therefore be attributed iu the first place to the
working of the American Silver Act by which the cir­
culation of legal currency in the United States is being
saturated.” The same correspondent writing under
date of January 31, 1893, stated, with reference to the
gold obtained for the first half of the 60 million 4 per
cents, that it chiefly came from the United States..
Now it will be noticed from the statement of our own
London correspondent in his letter printed to-day
that “ the expectation is that the metal” (that is, the
last 30 million florins, about 3 million pounds sterling)

■“ will be easily obtained in New York.” Under such
circumstances it is not surprising that a desire should
be expressed for a fuller explanation of the transaction.
The attempt to secure a specie standard has been
under discussion in Austria and Hungary for a long
time. No actual advance in the movement having that
end in view was made until a committee had been ap
pointed to give its opinion with reference to the char­
acter of the currency reform to be undertaken. This
committee was summoned to meet in Vienna and BudaPesth on March 8, 1892. Up to that time it had remained
in doubt whether Austria-Hungary should adopt a gold,
a silver or a bimetallic currency; and hence the first
question submitted to this committee was, “ Which
standard should be adopted when specie payments are
returned to ?” Both commissions had completed
their labors about the 20 th of March and the question
was answered alike in Hungary and Austria, each de­
ciding that the new standard must be gold. Another
point the same commission determined was, that the
value of the future currency should be based upon the
actual value of the Austrian florin in the international
money market. These two conditions control the
present movement— that is to say, a gold standard is
"the end sought, and in securing that end the old cur­
rency is to be redeemed in this gold currency, not at its
par value but at its average current value (about 16 per
cent below par) during the years preceding 1892.
After the commission had made its report as above
narrated, the necessary laws were prepared, but it
was not until May 1892 that the bills were introduced
into the Parliament of both countries. On August 2 ,
1892, all these measures had gone through the various
stages of legislation and were passed and published by
the Government. Mr. Leech, the Director of the
United States Mint, has obtained the laws through our
State Department, and has given them in full in hi3
report for 1892. Consequently, any of our read­
ers who wish to inform themselves fully with reference
to the details of the plan adopted can do so by obtain­
ing a copy of this report. It is only necessary to state
here the leading features of the system adopted.
The gold coins are to be nine-tenths fine and the
unit of calculation for the currency is the (krone)
crown. This is an entirely new coin for Austria, and
is only to be minted in silver. Its value is about
twenty cents. The gold coins will hereafter be ( 1 )
pieces of ten crowns, ( 2 ) pieces of twenty crowns (both
of the foregoing are new), and (3) the Austrian ducat.
The so-called gold florins of the denomination of four
and eight florins will no longer be coined. The other
new coins will be, ( 1 ) of silver— one-crown pieces and
50-heller pieces, (2) of nickel— 20-heller pieces and 10heller pieces, and (3) of bronze— 2-heller pieces and
1-heller pieces. Besides the foregoing, it is provided
that ( 1 ) the old 2 -florin silver piece must, so long as it
remains in circulation, be taken everywhere at 4
crowns, ( 2) the old silver one-florin piece must be taken
at 2 crowns, and (3) the old silver quarter-florin piece
at 50 hellers. These old silver coins are to remain in
circulation until further notice is given, but no more
are to be coined.
There is only one other feature to mention. It will
be remembered that the committee appointed to suggest
the character of the currency which it was proposed
to adopt, reported that the value should be based upon
the actual value of the Austrian depreciated florin.
This has been attained through the new coin, the
crown, and by the provision of Article X X I II that

437

the present paper currency shall remain a legal tender
and be accepted by all officers of state and private indi­
viduals inpayment of all legal obligations contracted in (
“ crown ” currency until withdrawn from circulation,
and in the meantime for the purposes of these pay­
ments one gulden (or florin) is to be reckoned at two
crowns. Without taking the space to give the details
of this-adjustment we would illustrate the situation by
stating that the crown is worth about 20£ cents and
the old florin is worth about 48 cents; consequently 2
florins would equal about 96 cents and 4 crowns about
81 cents. Hence for a debt in florins of 96 cents the
creditor would receive 81 cents, or a little less than 16
per cent below the gold value. That is to say, AustriaHungary in the readjustment of its currency leaves the
people at large to bear the loss of the depreciation in
its legal tender currency instead of redeeming it at par
in gold and making the Government bear the loss.

THE READING. RECEIVERS’ STATEMENT.
There is little that is encouraging and much that is
discouraging in the floating debt statement issued by
the receivers of the Philadelphia & Beading Railroad
Company this week. It is perhaps too early to pass
judgment upon all the acts of the management during
the last twelve or fourteen months, and it is certainly
quite impossible at the moment to determine what the
final effect of those acts is likely to be upon the future
of the company and the value of its securities. But
the present report, meagre though it be, seems to estab­
lish very clearly a- number of important facts, and
from those facts certain conclusions and deductions
would appear to follow with equal clearness.
At the outset we discover that the floating debt is
as large as the highest estimates that have been cur­
rent regarding it. Roughly the receivers report 10
million dollars of notes and bills payable outstanding
on February 20, 1893— in exact figures, $9,867,347—
three million dollars representing the loan of Speyer
& Co., three million dollars advances by the Finance
Company of Pennsylvania and Philadelphia Warehouse
Company and $3,867,347 bills payable held by other
parties. But in addition to these notes and bills pay­
able, and which may be called the floating debt proper,
the company had nearly as much more of other current
liabilities, such as amounts due for wages, supplies,
rentals, &c., and sums owing to connecting roads &e.
Of course large liabilities in connection with ordi­
nary operating accounts are unavoidable in the case of
big corporations like the Reading, but the liabili­
ties exist all the same, and have to be provided for
at the proper moment, and moreover in the present
instance the total appears to be exceptionally heavy,
reaching $8,605,481.. Adding this amount then to the
amount of loans and bills payable, the aggregate of all
current liabilities reaches 18| million dollars— $18, 472,828. This includes of course the accounts of the
Reading Coal & Iron Company, but there is nothing to
indicate that it includes the Lehigh Valley Railroad,
and we presume that any floating debt of the latter
would be additional to that of the Reading.
As against the 181 millions of current liabilities the
receivers report 15f millions ($15,779,784) of current
assets. Of this total of l o f million dollars, just
$29,241 consisted of actual cash and $89,996 of bills
receivable. This single fact tells the story of the com­
pany’s embarrassment and the need of a receivership
more clearly and more eloquently than anything else.

•or whether the amount was originally larger and has
since been reduced either voluntarily or through neces­
sity and if so the profit or loss on the dealings. All
the receivers say in reference to the matter is contained
in the statement that “ in connection with 24,036

“ York & New England Railroad Company stock, there
“ were outstanding $783,000 collateral trust bonds and
$1,544,000 3d preference income bonds,” and that
e: there is reasonable ground to believe that these col“ laterals will ultimately revert to the company.” This
means that the stock was not bought and paid for, but
that it was bought on margin, some of the Reading
securities being used to furnish the margin. The
transaction was thus speculative in nature, dependent
upon market fluctuations, the Reading's hold on the
stock purchased being cnilingent upon the sufficiency
o f the collateral and the company’s ability to keep the
margin good both in case of a decline in the
stocks themselves and in case of a decline in the
securities constituting the margin. It seems almost
incredible that the Reading managers should have
sanctioned such a proceeding. That the company was
not in fit condition to enter upon a venture of that kind
is of course perfectly evident. We have seen from Mr.
McLeod’s testimony that as early as last September the
company was carrying
millions tons of unsold coal.
Its floating obligations were correspondingly heavy,
and its ordinary every-day operations were on such a
acale as to tax its resources and credit to the utmost.
And yet the management did not hesitate to assume
these new obligations in connection with the New
England purchases. Under a different and more favor­
able state of the company’ s finances there might be
honest differences of opinion regarding the wisdom and
expediency of the Reading having entered New England
territory at all, but under existing circumstances, and
considering the method by which the purchase was
effected, there is room for only one conclusion, and
that emphatically adverse to the proceeding.
Incidentally, the receivers’ statement shows that the
-company has issued a considerable amount of new third
preference incomes in addition to those previously out­
standing. Thus $1,000,000 of such incomes constitute
part collateral against the Speyer loan, $1,000,000 more
are pledged as part collateral against the loan of the
Finance Company, $200,000 are pledged against the
bills payable, and $1,544,000 were used to furnish mar­
gin against the Boston & Maine purchase, making
3 f million dollars together. Current rumors have had
it that some of these third incomes were also used for
■other purposes, but the receivers furnish no information
on that point. Possibly if we had the full report for
the late year the mutter might appear clearer, but un­
fortunately we have been unable to procure a copy of
said report, a telegraphic request for the same having
elicited the reply that the report had not yet been pre­
pared.
With the above facts before us, it is easy to trace the
successive steps in the company’s downfall. The man­
agers, Eoon after they effected the coal combination,
found themselves etnbatrassed by a large accumulation
of coal on hand, aud by heavy floating obligations, the
latter in pare the result of these accumulations and in
part the rtsult of the greatly enlarged character of the
Reading’s business and operations. They could not
dispose of the coal in their own territory, so tney wan
dered off in search of a new field in New England.
They had very little cash, and hence were driven to buy

439

Boston & Maine stock, &c., on margin, depositing soma
of the Reading collateral mortgage and 3d preference in­
come bonds to protect the purchase. This venture^
however, failed to relieve them of their coal, while
adding greatly to their financial burdens. Then came
the time for the payment of interest on the preference
incomes. The company had no money for this pur­
pose, though the monthly statements had been made to
show that the interest had been earned; hence
the managers evidently thought the payment was es­
sential to the preservation of the company’s credit.
This latter was obviously a consideration of very great
importance, for a huge superstructure of current and
speculative liabilities had been erected on a very weak
financial base, and it required dexterous management
to avoid an immediate collapse.
Consequently the
money to pay the preference interest was borrowed.
This unfoitunately made matters worse instead of
better. The company was still in need of money and
its borrowing capacity was now exhausted. All its col­
lateral trust bonds had been pledged and several mil­
lions of the third preference incomes; even the coal on
band and the coal accounts were covered by a lien to
the Finance Company. To be sure some more of the
third preference incomes might he put out, as their
issue is not limited, but these were evidently no longer
acceptable to the money-lenders. The company, there­
fore, found itself in the predicament where it had
eleven hundred thousand tons of unsold coal, eighteen
and a-half million dollars of current liabilities and
$29,240 88 of cash.
The inevitable could not be
staved off any longer, and the managers, always quick
to grasp the situation, had themselves appointed re­
ceivers.

LA R G E

G R A IN EX PO R TS FROM N E W
ORLEANS.

The statement of breadstuffs exports for February
which the Bureau of Statistics at Washington has issued
this week, emphasizes a feature in the export trade
which has not as yet attracted any special attention.
We refer to the growing prominence of New Orleans as
a grain-exporting point. It is well known that the
Illinois Central has been bringing large amounts of
graiD to that centre from Memphis, and has greatly
extended its facilities at the Crescent City for that
purpose, seeking in every possible way to build up
traffic at said point. This week also we have a refer­
ence to the matter in the Texas & Pacific report, where
it is pointed out that the heavy grain movement to
New Orleans rendered necessary the erection of a grain
elevator by the Texas & Pacific company to enable it to
handle the business.
But even with the knowledge of all this the actual
proportions of the grain movement at New Orleans
are a surprise. It appears that during February al
most two million bushels were exported from that
point— 1,967,894 bushels— and that this compares with
1,572,170 bushels last year, thus showing an increase
of nearly four hundred thousand bushels, and this at a
time when the wheat exports from the country as a
whole fell off nearly three-quarters of a million bushels,
not counting flour, in which there was a further large
loss.
New Orleans actually shipped more wheat
abroad during February than did New York, where
the export was 1,941,871 bushels, though Few York
shipped in addition considerable amounts of flour,
while the flour shipments from New Orleans are of
course quite small. From Baltimore the wheat ship-

410

THE CHK0N10LE.

ments during the same month were only 433,093
bushels and from Philadelphia but 388,452 bushels,
while Boston shipped no wheat at all in this period ;
to be sure, the flour shipments from these points were
much heavier than from New Orleans, but even after
reducing flour to its equivalent in wheat the shipments
fromNew Orleans are in every ease very much in excess
of those at the other three points mentioned.
As these are the figures for only a single month, they
may be considered as possessing less significance than
if they covered a more extended period.
But taking
the exports for the eight months of the Government
fiscal year from the first of last July, we find aggregate
shipments from New Orleans the present year of
10,226,620 bushel against 11,905,998 bushels in the
corresponding period of last year, being a decrease of
only I f million bushels, whereas from the whole coun­
try the outward movement during the eight months fell
off over 34 million bushels, of which only the equivalent
of 6 million bushels was offset by an increase in the
flour shipments.
For this period the exports at
New Orleans are larger than at Boston, even
giving the latter credit for the flour shipments, but not
larger than the shipments from New York, Baltimore
and Philadelphia treated in the same way. That the
growth in the wheat trade of New Orleans is a very
recent development will appear when we say that the
exports from that point now reach as much in a
single month as they did two or three years ago in a
period of twelve months. In fact, while, as we.have
seen, the wheat shipments in February amounted to
almost two million bushed, in the whole of the calendar
year 1890 they were only 1,308,710 bushels, in the
calendar year 1889 but 982,315 bushels and in 1888
1,027,322 bushels.
In the case of the corn movement the comparison is also
favorable to the Crescent City. There is of course a fall­
ing off in exports on account of the smaller crop, but
New Orleans has lost relatively less than the rest of the
country. For February 1893 its shipments were 763,440 bushels, against 1,595,546 bushels in February 1892,
hut the exports from all ports were only about onethird those of last year, being but 3,319,074 bushels,
against 12,728,990. As against the 763,440 bushels
exports from New Orleans, the exports from
New York in the same month were only 622,803 bushels, from Boston 490,790 bushels, from
Philadelphia 333,912 bushels and from Balti­
more 793,908 bushels, the latter being hence the
only point with heavier corn shipments than New Or­
leans, and the difference between the two points being
really very small. For the eight months to February
28 the points mentioned have very much heavier totals
than New Orleans, but in the general falling off which
has occurred in this period, as compared with the large
movement of the preceding year, New Orleans has
fully held its own, the shipments from that point for
1892-93 being 1,504,667 bushels, against 2,975,069
bushels in 1892, and the shipments from the whole
country 22,189,728 bushels, against 45,076,838 bushels.

CONSOLIDATION OF OHIO & MISSISSIPPI
AND BALTIM ORE & OHIO SOUTHWESTERN.
The proposed consolidation of the Ohio & Mississippi
with the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern is an event
deserving of more than a passing notice. It marks an
important step in the development of these properties
and also in the development of the plans for making
%

them a definite part of the Baltimore & Ohio system,
for under the consolidation the latter is to get full con­
trol of the amalgamated company.
There are many elements of advantage in the gener­
al unification of these variohs lines. We regard the
Ohio & Mississippi and the Baltimore & Ohio South­
western as indispensable parts of the Baltimore & Ohio
system. It is equally true, however, that the welfare
and prosperity of those roads depend in very
great measure upon the maintenance of close relations
with the Baltimore & Ohio.
They can be operated to
better advantage in connection with that system than
in connection with any other. In effect those roads
and the Baltimore & Ohio are inter-dependent, and the
possibilities of traffic for both can best be developed by
their union.
The Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern
runs from Marietta to Cincinnati, the Ohio & Missis­
sippi carries the line to St. Louis, with a branch to
Louisville, and also a branch running from Shawneetown to Beardstown, through Springfield, 111. In con­
nection with the Baltimore & Ohio, these lines form
the shortest and most direct route between Baltimore
and St. Louis.
Aside from the fact that the Ohio & Mississippi, the
Ohio Southwestern and the Baltimore & Ohio all form,
natural connecting lines, amalgamation of the same is
a necessary outgrowth of the existing railroad situation.
Consolidation is the order of the day. The Ohio &
Southwestern and the Ohio & Mississippi are both small
roads, the one having only 281 miles of main track,
the other 636 miles. In these days of sharp competi­
tion small roads cannot be operated to advantage ex­
cept as parts of large systems. In the making of traffic
arrangements, in the drawing up of tariff schedules, in
the division and apportionment of business, and in
various other ways, a small road is in no position to
cope successfully with the large and powerful systems
by which it is surrounded. Its rights must be cham­
pioned by one of these latter to secure recognition.
This situation and requirement has given rise to the
process of absorption and consolidation which has been
such a feature of recent years. And in no part of the
country has the process been going on faster than in
the territory of the Central Traffic Association, where
are located the lines of-the Ohio & Mississippi and the
Ohio Southwestern.
The consolidation may also be regarded as essential to
complete the Western system of the Baltimore & Ohio,
and to enable it to compete with the other leading trunk
line roads. These latter have all been perfecting and
extending their Western lines, such lines forming of
course important feeders and tributaries to the main
stems and in turn furnishing Western outlets to the
same. The Pennsylvania Railroad early made arrange­
ments for its system of Western roads in the organiza­
tion of the Pennsylvania Company, this taking care of
the so-called Northwestern system. Within more
recent periods, the Pittsburg Cincinnati Chicago &
St. Louis, organized in 1890 in the same interest,
has furnished the basis for an amalgamation under
a single control of the so- called Southwestern system
— that is the lines to St. Louis, &c.
In the case
of the Vanderbilt roads, a powerful system in their
interest in the Central Western territory has been built
up during the last few years through the consolidation
of the Cincinnati Indianapolis St. Louis & Chicago,
the Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati & Indianapolis,
the Indianapolis & St. Louis, the Cairo Vincennes &
Chicago, the Cincinnati Sandusky & Cleveland, the.

Peoria & Eastern, &c., all these being comprised in the
present Cleveland Cincinnati Chicago & St. Louis.
On its part the Baltimore & Ohio in the same inter­
val has not been idle. The acquisition of the Pitts­
burg & Western, the Valley of Ohio, the Columbus &
Cincinnati Midland, and the building of the Akron &
Chicago Junction and various other roads, furnish evi­
dence of this statement. The Chicago extension of
course has been in operation a great many years. The
company was also able through reorganization to get
definite control of the old Marietta & Cincinnati, now
forming the Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern. But
the relations with the Ohio & Mississippi continued dis­
turbed and unsettled, and no satisfactory arrangements
with that road could be made till the jiresent time.
The contest for the control of the board of directors of
the road is so fresh as to be within the recollection of
every one. All obstacles having at last been removed,
that road will also now be definitely and indisputably
attached to the system, for there seems no reason to
doubt that the security-holders will come into the
scheme. The reorganization of the Ohio Southwestern
as is known, proved very successful and has been at­
tended with excellent results. The present plan is
simply an elaboration of the same idea on a larger scale
so as to include both the Ohio & Mississippi and the
Ohio Southwestern.
It i 3 not necessary to go into the details of the
exchange of securities proposed. Suffice it to say that
the plan provides for the issue of $36,000,000 1st
mortgage 4| per cent gold bonds, guaranteed principal
and interest by the Baltimore & Ohio (this to take up
all outstanding bonds of both companies, excepting
only $1,500,000 of Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern
Terminal bonds), $8,750,000 of 5 per cent class “ A ”
income bonds, $10,000,000 of 5 per cent class “ B ”
incomes, $20,000,000 of 7 per cent non-eumulative
preferred stock, and $10,000,000 of common stock, the
latter to be taken by the Baltimore & Ohio and carry­
ing the control of the company. A strong feature in
the plan is that it provides means for supplying the
present and future capital wants of the consolidated
lines. It is estimated that after the old bonds have
been converted, a balance of $4,500,000 of the new 4^
per cent bonds will be left in the treasury, available
for improving the physical condition of the Ohio &
Mississippi and for the general purposes of the com­
pany. There is also to be provision in the new mort­
gage for the issue, under proper conditions and restric­
tions, of additional bonds for terminals, double tracks
and equipment, these additional bonds to bear 4 per
cent interest and to be guaranteed the same as the
other bonds of the same issue by the Baltimore & Ohio
Company.

The loss in net earnings the present year is the:
more noteworthy since it follows a loss in the same,
month last year, there having been a decrease then o f
$381,126, or 6T5 per cent. But the weather condi­
tions were unfavorable at that time too, only to a less
extent, and in different sections and in a different way,
the chief sufferers in that year being the road3 in the.
South, where there were heavy rains and overflows',
and the roads in the Southwest and also some of those
in Southern California. In the years preceding 189%,
however, January earnings had been very satisfactory,
there having been large gains in both gross and net.

A feature in the present year's return is the very
heavy losses in net earnings sustained by the leading
east-and-west trunk line systems. Thus the Pennsyl­
vania reports a falling off in net of as much as $828,515 (Eastern and Western lines combined), while the
Reading has a decrease of $419,950, the Baltimore &
Ohio a decrease of $.241,041, the Cleveland Cincinnati
Chicago & St. Louis a decrease of $149,348, ihe Grand
Trunk of Canada a decrease of $59,365, and the Wa­
bash a decrease of $53,219. Outside of the territory
embraced by these roads the large losses are compara­
tively few, embracing among others the Norf. & Western
with $80,644 decrease, the Northern Pacific with $78,924 decrease, the Mexican Central with $51,592 de­
crease, the “ Soo,” road with $50,400 decrease, and the
Chicago & Eastern Illinois with $48,167 decrease.
The systems with large losses have an aggregate
decrease of $2,197,008. The falling off in net on the
whole 125 roads in our table, as has already been seen,
is only $1,320,999. It follows that there must have
been decided improvement on some of the remaining
roads, and that is the fact, a few leading systems in the
South and Southwest showing very heavy gains. The
Louisville & Nashville, for instance, reports an increase
in net of $239,469, the Southern Pacific an increase
of $230,339, the Atchison an increase of $109,221, the Chesapeake & Ohio an increase of $85,854 ;
besides these, the Erie has $91,523 increase, the Illinois
Central $63,533 increase, and the Mexican National

THE CHRONICLE.

Originally the Messrs. Baring and Messrs. J. S. Morgan & Co.
were opposed to the step. The Messrs. Baring still are so, but
Messrs. Morgan & Co. will not protest, although they do not
Join in the movement. The intention, as explained last week,
is, if the Argentine Government consents, to ask the British
Government for the loan of two financial experts to study the
subject. The experts, however, are not to negotiate.
International securities have been well supported. There
has even been a rise in Spanish. The 63 million pesetas of
Treasury bills which were offered over a month ago have
at last all been taken. They are for three months and are
renewable once ; therefore, they do not become re-payable for
six months, and it is hoped that the proceeds will enable the
Government to go on until the Congress adopts other
measures. The discredit of the Government, however, is
shown by the fact that it has taken more than a month to
place these bills, though they amount to no more than a
nominal 2}^ millions sterling. There has been a very decided
rise in Greek bonds. Some time ago the Greek Government
asked the governments of the United Kingdom, France and
Germany to send financial experts to study and report upon the
finances of Greece. The week after next Mr. Law, the British
expert, will send in his report, and it is believed that his col­
leagues will do the same contemporaneously. The nature of
the report, of course, is not known ; but the Greek Govern­
ment is negotiating in London for an advance of 4 millions
sterling, half to be raised immediately and the other half
later. The proceeds are to be applied in the first place to the
withdrawal of currency in the hope of raising it to par.
Special revenues are to be mortgaged, and there is to be a
commission to receive and disburse the money. The Aus.
trian loan for 5 millions sterlings has been very successful,
having been covered more than ten times. It was especially
successful in Germany. The syndicate of bankers took half
the loan firm, with option to take the remaining half. As the
subscriptions have been so large the syndiciti has now ex.
ercised its option and the whole loan is thereby placed. In
consequence the syndicate will have to supply the Govern"
ment with a further sum of 3 millions sterling in gold; but it
has a long period to fulfill the contract. The expectation is
that the metal will be easily obtained in New York. As stated
last week, it is hoped that no further instalment of the loan
will be issued this year, certainly will not if the bankers’
advice is followed.
There is every prospect now that the threatened strike in
the coal trade will be averted. The Miners’ Federation has
been anxious to induce the miners all over Great Britain to
Stop working for a time. A meeting was held this week
at Birmingham to consider the subject and the Federation’s
proposal was rejected. It is now considered certain that the
sliding-scale arrangement will be carried through in South
Wales, and in Northumberland the proposal of the employes
for a reduction of 5 per cent in wages has been accepted
Generally, therefore, the' prospect now is that wages will be
lowered all over the country without a serious struggle. The
dispute in the cotton trade, however, is still unsettled.

Foreign Exchange.—The high rates for call money have
held in check the business in foreign exchange and caused
only moderate transactions, but as money relaxed rates for
sterling bills became firmer. There have been no gold ex­
ports this week, probably due to tlio monetary situation.
Actual rates of exchange are: Bankers’ sixty days sterling,
4 84%<g4 85; demand, 4 86%@4 87 ; cables, 4 87@4 87%.
T ub following were the races of domestic exouange o n New
York at the under-mentioned cities to-day: Savannah, buying
par, selling l ,, premium ; Charleston, btiying par, selling 1
premium ; New Orleans, bank, $1 50 premium, commercial,
7oe.; at. Louis, 90c. per $1,000 premium ; Chicago, par.

Government Purchases of Silver.the amount of silver purchased to date in March by the Gov­
ernment.

The Money Market and Financial Situation.—The high
rates for money this week have held business within narrow
limits but otherwise there are some signs of better feeling and
a tendency towards more confidence in the general situation.
The foreign trade balance does not improve, sofar as indicated
by the February returns, and further exports of gold seem to
be kept down only by the tight money. The imports of mer­
chandise continue on a large scale, and importers apparently
feel safe in buying foreign goods now, as any premium on gold
in the future would find them with a heavy stock of merchan­
dise already paid for. The great issues of silver dollars and
legal-tender coin notes forced on our Government have been
mainly for the purpose of increasing the volume of
circulating medium in the country, and it is the
strongest possible argument against this policy that
during the past year there has been very little net increase,
for the simple reason that with the issue of notes against silver
purchases gold dollars are driven out of the country. Thus in
1892, while these notes actually increased 817,418,000, the gold
exported was 819,045,000, an actual loss as between these two
items of $11,637,000. Could there be a stronger argument for
our Congressmen to consider ?
The railroads have had a very hard winter but have the
prospect of a much better business hereafter. The World's
Fair opens in about six weeks, and the lines carrying pas­
sengers to Chicago ought to profi t largely.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have ranged from 1% to 20 per
cent, the average being 9 per cent. To-day rates on call were
1% to 7 per cent. Commercial paper is quoted nominally at 6
per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed
an increase in bullion of £142,000, and the percentage of re­
serve to liabilities was 51-21 against 51'82 last week ; the dis­
count rate remains unchanged at 2% per cent. The Bank of
France shows an increase of 25,000 francs in gold and
1,450,000 in silver.
The New York City Clearing-House banks in their statement
of March 11 showed a decrease in the reserve held of $5,558,600
and a surplus over the required reserve of $4,643,275, against
$6,503,125 the previous week:

State and Railroad Bonds.—Sales of State bonds at the
Board have included $52,000 Tenn. settlt. 3s at 75 % ; $1,000
La. con. 4s at 94% ; $10,000 Ala. Class “ A” at 102 and $1,000
N. C. 4s at 98.
Railroad bonds have naturally been’ dull on the general in­
quiry for investment, while the principal dealings have been in
some of the low-priced bonds that are touched more or less
by the same influences that affect the stock market. The
Phil. & Reading bonds having already declined to very
low figures are steadier now, without much change
from day to day, except with the slight variations in demand.
There will probably be more confidence in Reading bonds when
the holders are satisfied that the properties are being strongly
and economically managed, and that all will be made of them
which their capacity permits. The Richmond Terminal os have
sold quite fi'eeiy and prices are a little lower. Chicago &
Erie incomes have been active at times and sold at 37%,
some of the sales having probably been for foreign account.
Erie second consols have also been active, closing at 97.
The Northern Pacific issues have been fairly active, and to­
day the consol, os sold at 685^ and the Chic. & Northern Pacific
os at 76%. The prices of many good bonds have yielded
slightly of late, owing to the lack of buyers and the tight
money market, and where parties are well satisfied with the
character of the security the prices seem relatively attractive
to purchasers for investment.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market has
been dull most of the time, as usually happens after the occur­
rence of a crisis that has broken down prices. There has been
much liquidation and continued closing up of accounts,
owing to the high rates for money and the discour­
aging events of the past few weeks. Towards the close
there have been signs of a better feeling and con­
siderable covering of shorts at the low prices now
ruling. New York & New England has been a feature
and since the election of the McLeod directory, on the 14th,
touched 21 on Thursday, closing better to-day at 24%. Read­
ing has been tolerably steady around 23-24 most of the week,
as there was not much margin for further decline, and closes
at 23%. General Electric made a break to 98 but sharply
recovered afterward to 104% on the reported buying by strong
parties, and closes to-day at 101%. The coal stocks as a class
weakened on the reduction in prices of anthracite coal made by
the agents, but they are steady at the lower range. After
the annual meeting in St. Louis Missouri Pacific sold down to 48,
but has recovered to 52%, presumably on purchases by friends
of the company. The leading grangers have been more active
the past few days and Burlington, St. Paul, and Rock Island
all met with considerable business to-day, the first-named sell­
ing off 1 per cent at the morning Board, but ail closed better.
About the strongest stock to-day was Northern Pacific pre­
ferred at 44, as it has been taken quite heavily the past few
days on reports of some good news to come out as to the
company’s finances, and it closes at 42%. Am. Sugar was a
leading stock as usual, and after the dividend came off the
price, the common declined, touching 92% on Wednesday,
from which it rallied sharply on buying by insiders, and
closes at 99%. Lead closes at 38% and Tobacco at 95%, the
talk of possible competition in each case being made prominent.

Net Earnings M onthly to Latest Dates.—The following
shows the gross and net earnings to latest dates of all railroads
furnishing monthly statements. The compilation includes
every road from which we can get returns of this character,
and in that form is given once a month. Early returns are
published from week to week, as soon as issued, but for the
convenience of our readers all the roads making returns are
brought together here in the week in which we publish our
monthly article on net earnings—say on or about the 20th of
the month. A paragraph mark (if) added after the name
of a road indicates that the figures for that road have not pre­
viously been given, but appear for the first time in this
issue.

“ The car trust obligations, $332,899, cover a period of five
years in monthly payments, and are in no respect burden­
some. Of bills payable, $300,000, bearing five per cent in­

Texas & Pacific Kailway.
(.For the year ending Dec. 31, 1892.)
The annual report is signed by Mr. Geo. J, Gould. President.
He remarks that “ the net earnings of 1892 were ail that could
reasonably be expected considering the conditions that pre­
vailed in Texas Curing the year affecting the successful oper­
ation ot railways. The low rates established by the State
Railway Commission were in force from the commencement
of the year to about September 15, since which time fairer
and more uniform rates have prevailed. The tonnage han­
dled by your company was largely in excess of the previous
year—in fact, greater than in any year since the line was
opened for traffic, but this increase consisted largely of a class
of freight, grain, lumber and coal which,-under the rates
prevailing, produced but little revenue. The rate per ton per
mile was l ‘14c. against l-26c. in 1891. The cotton movement,
owing to reduced acreage, was 107,412 bales less than in 1891,
showing a loss in revenue in the transportation of that com­
modity alone, compared with the previous year, of §197,831.
Passenger business shows a dt crease of §106,143; of this,
§87,377 was local traffic; there is reason to believe that
this loss was solely due to the financial depression prevailing
in the State of Texas. With the encouraging crop outlook
and brighter business prospects, if the rates now established
can be maintained there is every reason to expect that the
present will be a much more prosperous year for your com­
pany than the one just closed.
“ ft is gratifying to state that the physical condition of your
property, its road-way, structures and equipment, is believed
to be better than ever before in its history.
*' “ The completion o f the Houston Central Arkansas &
Northern Railway into Alexandria, added to the general
movement of grain to New Orleans for export, which in­
creased from 5,460,078 bushels in 1890-91 to 23,479,180 in 1891-92
rendered the erection of a gram elevator at New Orleans
necessary.”
The company’s balance sheet shows that the current liabili­
ties at the close of the year exceeded the current assets to the
extent of $528,452, as follows :

St. Louis Vaudalia & Terre Haute KR.
If For the year ending Oct. 31, 1892.,]
Mr. Thomas D. Messier, President of this leased road belongmg to the Pennsylvania system, remarks in his report that
the increase in the freight earnings was wholly in the through
business, the increase in this branch of the traffic having been
$73,412, which was offset in part by a decrease in the earnings
from local freights of $10,383. The local tonnage decreased
19,147 tons compared with 1891, due to the falling off in the
traffic in coal and pig iron, but the effect of this decrease in
tonnage was partly offset by an increase in the average rate per
ton per mile obtained. The through tonnage increased 160,418
tons, or 21 54-100 per cent. Of the total increase in the tonnage
the principal items were those of grain, flour, mill products,
hay, fruits, wool, coke, lumber, petroleum, stone, bar and sheet
metal, merchandise, and other miscellaneous articles.
The passenger earnings were increased $1,480. The number
of local passengers carried during the year was 332,045, as
against 314,210, an increase of 17,835, equal to 5 68-100 per
cent. The number of through passengers carried during the
year was 97,956, against 84,372, an increase of 13,584, equal to
16 10-100 per cent. The average rate per mile received on this
class of travel decreased from 2 11-100 cents to 1 96-100, equal
to nearly 7 per cent. This, added to a slight reduction in the
average trip, resulted in a decrease in the through passenger
earnings of $1,549.
The cost of i oad and equipment was increased rturing the
year $100,968.
“ The indebtedness of the lessee resulting from the settlement
of 1890 has all been paid with interest. The amount received
from this source has been applied in further liquidation of
the dividends accrued on the preferred stock of the company.
Four paymems on this account were made during the year,
to wit: for 1881, 1882, 1883 and 1884, $108,129 each, making
$432,516; add amount previously paid, $6915,367. Total pay­
ments on account of dividends on preferred stock, $1,125,783,

“ On the 16th of May, 1892, the Supreme Court of the United
States affirmed the decree of the United States Circuit Court
for the Southern District of Illinois in the suit which had been
brought by this company to cancel the lease which had been
made of its railroad and franchises to the Terre Haute & In­
dianapolis RR. Co,, dated February 10, 1868. The Supreme
Court of the United States declared the lease to be wholly in­
valid and void, for the reason that the lessee company had no
power to accept a lease of a railroad in Illinois; yet it refused
to cancel the lease and restore the leased railroad and fran­
chises to the owner, because both lessee and lessor companies
were equally at fault in making such a lease, and under
established principles of equity jurisprudence neither party is
entitled to relief.
The operations, earnings, &c., for four years are compiled
for the C h r o n i c l e as below :

(F or the year ending Dec. 31, 1892..)
The company owns equipment costing over §5,000,000, free
and clear of car trusts, also equipment covered by car trust?
to the extent of $457,000, interest at 6 per cent and 7 per cent.
In November, 1892, the company contracted for 1,600 standard
coal cars of 30-ton capacity, which will be charged to operat­
ing expenses during the next three years.
The fiscal year ends Deo. 31, and annual meetings will here­
after be held on the third Tuesday in March.
From advance sheets of the annual report we make up the

( For the year ending Dec. 31, 1892).
The report of President Taussig says: “ Theincrease in earn­
ings does not indicate tire past year to have been a remark­
ably prosperous one—in point of volume of traffic and
rates it was only a year of fair average. Many circum­
stances combined to check the freight movement across
the river, foremost among which were the inadequate
facilities of some of our connections east and west,
to handle and rapidly dispose of heavy freight receipts.'’ * *•
“ Had it not been for these drawbacks, which are apt to occur
again and again if our connections continue to ignore the ne­
cessity of enlarging their terminal facilities, we would, in my
judgment, have carried about 10,000 more cars of grain and
other through freight than we did.” * *
“ All real estate purchases within the new Union depot terri­
tory have been made, and no more expenditures will be re­
quired on that account. The cost of all the real estate newly
acquired, exclusive of leased property, is $1,545,550, of which
$1,052,226 was paid for in cash, and the balance, $493,888 is
due in deferred payments.”
The earnings and expenses, and income account, for three
years, was as follows :

nual meeting of stockholders was held March 16. The total

ments, and they approved a contract for the imrcna-e from J.
Pierpont Morgan of the control of the New York & Northern
Railroad.

THE CHRONICLE.

46i

The present capital stock of the New York Central is $89,428,300. The resolution of the board of directors provides
that it shall be raised to §100,000,000, an increase of $10,571,700. The stockholders will be called to meet at Albany on
April 19 for the purpose of ratifying the action o f the direct­
ors. Transfer books of the company will be closed on June
15. Stockholders of record of that date will be entitled to
subscribe between that day and July 1 for the new stock at
par to the extent of 10 per cent of their holdings. Payment
for subscriptions is to be made as follows: Fifty per cent on
July 1, 1893; 25 per cent on January 2, 1894, and 25 per cent
on July 2, 1894. Interest-bearing certificates are to be issued
on the payment and stamped upon the next payment being
made, to be convertible into stock when the last payment is
completed.
Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan said: “ The money obtained from
the sale of this additional stock at par to the stockholders will
be used for the extension of depots and the building of ter­
minals in this citv. A part of the proceeds will also be ex­
pended in completing the block-signal system between New
York and Buffalo, and in meeting expenses to be incurred
through the improvements contemplated on the Harlem River.
Additional real estate is to be bought at Buffalo, and provision
is made to purchase a large amount of equipment and to con­
tinue construction work, extensions and betterments as may
be found necessary from time to time by the board of direc­
tors for the proper and effective development of the property.”
—The statement of earnings, operating expenses, etc., for
the quarter and nine months ending March 31, March 1893
being estimated, is as follows :

[VOL. L ’VI.

New York & Northern.—The purchase of this railroad by
the New York Central & Hudson is now admitted but the
terms are not made public. The Central takes charge of the
Northern on April 1.
The Tribune reports Mr. Morgan as saying : “ I purchased
the control of the Northern from the New York Loan &
Improvement Company and it has been sold to the New York
Central. I am not worrying about getting my money. The
New York New Haven & Hartford will be protected by the
placing of the Northern Road in the Grand Central property,
giving the New Haven the same facilities and privileges as if
the Northern were part of the Harlem tracks. The New York
& Northern will have to be reorganized, hut that will be a
matter of future arrangement.”
Nevada Southern.—This road will have completed by April
1 thirty miles extending north from Goffs, a point on the A t­
lantic & Pacific road just west of the Needles in San Bernardino
County, Cal. During the year the road will be extended to
Good Springs, Lincoln County, Nevada, a total distance from
Goff’s of 100 miles. Thirty-year 5 per cent gold bonds at the
rate of $15,Oi 0 a mile will be issued as road is completed.

Ohio & Mississippi—Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern.—
Copies of the plan of consolidation can now be had at the
offices of the Farmers’ Loan & Trust Company, 22 William
Street, New York,'.where holders may deposit their securities,
receiving negotiable certificates therefor, which certificates
will in due course be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The details of the exchange will be found in the advertise­
ment on another page of this issue and need not be repeated

New York New Haven & Hartford—Boston & Maine.—
A t New Haven, March 11, the following official statement
from the directors of the Consolidated Road was given our.
The beard of directors of the Boston & Maine Railroad Com­
pany, at a special meeting held in Boston to-day, and
the board of directors of the New York New Haven &
Hartford Railroad Company, at their regular meeting in New
York, at the same time, unanimously ratified the agreement
reached by the committee of conference at their meeting
on Monday, the 6th, which is to the effect that neither com­
pany will interfere with the territory of the other, which is
defined to be for the Boston & Maine that north of the Boston
& Albany Railroad, and for the New Haven Road, the Boston
& Albany R. R. and all south of it in New England; with
a further agreement that each company will interchange, so
far as it legally and properly may, all the business of the
joint territories. This agreement or understanding is one
reached after conference between the two committees, who
agreed that the two great systems of New England should
work in harmony and, so far as lawful and proper, protect
mutual interests.

Oregon Pacific.—At Corvallis, Ore., March 13, the sale
of the Oregon Pacific Railroad was continued until June
28. The object of the continuance is to place the pro­
perty in the hands of an impartial receiver, and also to
obtain time to send experts over the road to determine the
value of an extension of the line east of the Cascade Moun­
tains.
The order removing T. Egenton Hogg from the receiver­
ship of the road, and appointing Everest W. Hadley, of
Corvallis, Ore., in his stead, has been received. But Mr. Hogg
is in possession at No. 45 William Street, and he will not va­
cate. Proceedings are now in progress to remove him.
Peoria Decatur & Evansville—Chicago & Ohio River.—
The special meeting of Peoria Decatur & Evansville stock­
holders called for the 14th inst. to act upon a proposed con­
solidation of the road with the Chicago & Ohio River was
postponed, a temporary injunction having been obtained by
parties opposed to the proposed action. The restraining order
was obtained by John Zimmerman in the U. S. Circuit Court
at Peoria and a hearing has been set for March 24.

Philadelphia & Reading.—The full statement submitted
New York & New England.— At the annual meeting in by the receivers of the Railroad Company and the Coal &
Boston, March 14, there was some acrimonious discussion. In Iron Co. is as follows ;

Speculation in cotton for future delivery at the commence­
ment of the week under review produced results principally
in buyers’ favor. Saturday’s market remained about steady
in consequence of moderate offerings and small local shorts
covering for safety, but on Monday pressure to realize became
quite apparent, especially from the outside operating element,
and prices declined about }-gC. per lb. On Tuesday the heavy
feeling was still more pronounced under additional free offer­
ings from holders of “ long ” engagements, a large number of
whom were compelled to liquidate in consequence of strin­
gency in the money market, and at the close of business rates
had settled off 15 points. Oa Wedneday morning 5@6 points
additional were lost, followed by a full recovery, with evi­
dences of a steadier undertone, and yesterday there was an
advance of 13 points, with a general showing of features con­
sidered quite encouraging. The weak “ long” interest appeared
to have become about all eliminated, with a new investing
demand drawn in at the modified cost. The English markets
were in better form as the result of resumption of work at
some of the Oldham mills, and it became known that for a
day or two there had been a great deal of quiet buying on
Continental account at this market and in the South. To-dav,
however, there was a sharp reaction under a most unexpected
break reported from Liverpool, for which no explanation was
given, except possible disappointment in settlement of Lanca­
shire labor troubles. Cotton on the spot has sold with in­
creased freedom during the week, piincipally to exporters,
and prices after some irregularity finally closed 3-16c. lower.
Middling uplands, 8 15-16c.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 1,303,000
bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
8,330 bales, including 5,416 for export, 714 for consumption,
— for speculation and 2,100 on contract. The following are
the official quotations for each day of the past week—
March 11 to March 17.

the interior towns. Last year the receipts from the plantations
for the week were 66,686 bales and for 1891 they were
66,461 bales.

We give below a statement showing the overland movement
for the week and since September 1. As the returns reach us
by telegraph late Friday night it is impossible to enter so
largely into detail as in our regular monthly report, but all
the principal matters of interest are given, This weekly
publication is of course supplementary to the more extended
monthly statements, The results for the week ending Mch. 17
and since Sept. 1 in the last two years are as follows:

THE

CHROJVLCrjR.

W e a t h e r R e p o r t s b y T e l e g r a p h . — Reports to u s b y tele
graph this evening indicate that the weather has been favor­
able as a rule daring the week, and that, as a consequence
preparations for the next crop have progressed well. In Texas
planting has been begun and in the Southern portion of the
State is about half completed. Our Dallas correspondent
states that farmers are paying no attention to the resolutions
passed at the cotton acreage convention, and that the area
in the State will be largely increased. At the close of the
week the temperature is lower.
G alveston. t'exas. —We have had rain on two days during
the week, the precipitation being seveotv-one hundredths of
an inch. The thermometer has averaged61, the highest being
74 and the lowest 48.
Palestine, Texas.—It has been showery on two days of the
week, the raiofall being two hundre lths of an inch. The
thermometer has averaged 62. ranging from 46 to 84.
H u n tsville, T ex a s. —There have been showers on two davs
of the week, to the extent of thirty hundredths of an inch.
The thermometer his ranged Ir >m 4i t >83, averaging 62.
D allas, l e x a s . —Farmers throughout the State are paying
no attention whatever to the resolutions passed by last week’s
cotton-acreage convention. In the southern half of the S'ate
planting is nearly half completed and in the northern half it
has just begun. All the same, the cotton land is all bedded
up aud ready for the seed. There will be a largely increased
acreage in every stction of the State. Estimates range from
ten per cent upto twenty-five per cent increase. My estimate
fram the limited data I have been able to ootiin is that the
cotton acreage of Texas will be sixteen per cent more than
last year. There seems to be a b-lief current among city mer­
chants that farmers from financial stre-s are unaole to greatly
increase their cotton acreage; but this is a mistake. They
have the financial ability to increase it to any extent they de­
sire. Financially they are belt r fixed than they nave been
for twenty years, and now show a disposition to practically
assert their independence. Tne c o rn acreage o f the State is
also increased. I estimate it at seven per cent. The truit
crop promises to be very abundant. We have had splendid
and timely rain on one day o f the past week, the rainfall
reaching one inch and eighty-eight hundredths. Average
thermometer 59. highest 78 andjlowest 40.

ing from 32 to 84.

week, to the extent of fifty-nire hund edths of an inch. The

increase in the acreage of both corn and cotton, due to immi­
gration and opening of new larid. It has rained lightlv on
one day of the week, the rainfall reaching three hundredths
of an inch. Average thermometer 62, highest 82 and lowest
42.

Considered by themselves these figures would be taken as
foreshadowing a considerable addiiion to acreage this year,
but such a conclusion may have to be modified. For illustra­
tion a valued correspondent in Virginii writes this week as
follows : “ While the demand for fertilizers is quite active it
is questionable whether there will be any material increase in
acreage. The experience o f the present season (1892-93) has
demons rated that in the upper half o f the cotton belt the
crop must hive fertilizers to ensure its development and
maturitjAprior to occurrence of early frosts.”

68.000 bales less than at the same date last year

shows no abatement, deliveries being on a very large scale
against previous orders in both cotton and woolen fabrics. In
cotton goods leading brands of domestics are still in a good
position, being sold ahead and very firm in price. There are,
however, other makes not nearly so well conditioned, and
where this is the case buyers find the placing of orders encour­
aged by slight concessions in terms. Thus i here is some irreg­
ularity below the surface and not that uniformity of opinion
concerning the outlook which prevailed up to the beginning
of this month. Agents handling the goods in greatest request
are confident that prices will be maintained, perhaps occa­
sionally advanced; their less fortunate competitors hope there
will l e no tangible break but are by no means certain that it.
will be avoided. Outside of domestics the market is also quiet
at first hands and in some divisions not over steady in price
The jobbing trade has been fairly active in itsleading’ branches.
Collections are less satisfactory, increased irregularity being
shown this week. There are also complaints locally of much
difficulty in negotiating commercial paper, even when backed
by double names of unquestioned standing.
D o m k s t i c W o o l e n s . — Agents are well occupied in making
deliveries against recorded orders, in this way completing a
very considerable amount of business. The current trade in
the shape of new orders is decidedly moderate. Tnere is a
demand for spot parcels of spring weights, but with the sea­
son so far advan& d this is naturally limited, while buyers
who have placed their firrt orders for fall in men’s wear ma­
terials are waiting for some indication of w hat is to be the
popular fabric or fabrics before duplicating. Meanwhile
cheviots maintain theii position in favor. Fancy worsteds
are quiet. Overcoatings and cloakiDgs are well sold
and steady. Doeskin jeans, sa iuets and cotton-warp cassimeres are quiet. Woolen and worst d dress goods are in bet­
ter request for fall delivery, jobbers paying mote attention to
future needs. With the exception of sackings, which have
been advanced 2 per cent in leading makes, prices of dress
goods are unchanged.
D o m e s t i c C o t t o n G o o d s . —The exports of cotton goods
from thiir port for the week ending March 14 were 2,328

Why Not Include Baltimore 2—This is the question which
the city officials and financial institutions of Baltimore are
asking in reference to the proposed amendment o f the laws
limiting the investments allowed to savings bauk3 in New
York State. The bill now under consideration by the New
York Legislature (see C h r o n i c l e of last week, page 396)
would if passed authorize toe savings banks to invest in the
bonds of cities in New England, Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan and Missouri having
50,000 or more inhabitants and a net debt, excluding water
debt, not exceeding 7 per cent of the city’s assessed valuation.
“ This,” says Mayor Latrobe, of Baltimore, “ does our city
great injustice. Baltimore is the sixth city in population in
the country; we have now about 500,000 people, our 3}£ per
cent bonds sell above par, and our net debt is smaller than that
of any of the large cities.” According to figures furnished
by City Register James A. Robb, under date of March 13th,
Baltimore’s total bonded debt, less the sinking fund and the
water debt, is 116,222,290, and 7 per cent of the assessed
valuation amounts to § 19,600,000, showing the city’s debt to be
more than $3,000,000 within the limit required in the abovementioned bill. It is furthermore expected that the taxable
basis will be largely increased by next year’s assessment. A
full and detailed report of the city’s financial condition is
given in a foregoing statement.
Against Single Tax System iu Maryland.—On Tuesday
of this week the Court of Appeals at Annapolis, Md., handed
down an opinion declaring an act of the last L=gislature null
and void, as it disregarded the provisions of the State Consti­
tution by exempting from taxation personal property in
Hyattsville, Prince George’s County. A part o f the opinion
reads as follows :
“ The attempt made by the act of 1893 to disregard the fif­
teenth ai tide of the declaration of rights by exempting all
personal property from assessor ent must prove abortive, and
as the act undertakes to establish a scheme of taxatiou not
warranted by the organic law, it must be stricken drwn as
null and inoperative. We are not to be understood as deny­
ing to the Legislature the power, when State poltcy and con­
siderations beneficial to ihe public justify it, to exempr, with­
in reasonable limits, some species of property from taxation.
A long-contioued practice, neatly contemporaneous in its
origin with the adoption of the Constitu-iori itself, and many
adjudged and carefully-considered cases decided by this court
abundantly support that power. But a power to exempt for
reasons and upon considerations which are sufficient to
uphold the exemption is not a power to nullify the Constitu­
tion o f the State.”
It is too late, the court says, to compel the commissioners of
Hyattsville to restore the valuation of improvements to the
assessable basi3 and to include all personal property for the
year 1892, but hereafter the commissioners may be per­
petually restrained by injunction from proceeding under the
act passed by the last Legislature.
B o n d P ro p o sa ls a n d N e g o tia tio n s.—We have re­
ceived through the week the following notices o f bone a
recently negotiated and bonds offered and to be offered few
sale.
Alameda. Cal.— ( S t a t e a n d C i t y S u p p l e m e n t , page IBS.)—
City Clerk James Millington writes the C H R O N IC L E that bids
will be received untd April 3 for the purchase of §45,000 of
5 per Cent bonds. The bonds will be of the denomination of
$650 each, dated April 1, 1893. and will become due, five bonds
annually, from April 1,1894. Interest will be payable annually
by the city Treasurer.
The total debt of Alameda, including this issue, is $245,500 ;
equalized valuation 1892 was $11,787,100.
A deposit of 20 per cent is required with bids for the above
bonds, the balance to be paid three days after the sale.
Albany, N. Y.—( S t a t e a n d C i t y S u p p l e m e n t , page 43.)—
A bill has been introduced in the Legislature providing for
the issue of new water bonds to the amount of $2,800,000, for
a water supply.
Arkansas.—( S t a t e a n d C i t y S u p p l e m e n t , page 168.)—
The Arkansas Legislature has under consideration a bill to
authorize the refunding of the State’s bonded indebtedness,
with tire exception of the Holford issues, the proposed re­
funding bonds to bear interest at the rate of 4 per cent per
annum. The local pre-s is strongly in favor of this measure
as a means of building up the State’s credit, and the general
feeling seems to be that the bill in some form will go through.
