pectations.

This week's Bank return has been looked forward to with
it is certainly quite as favorable as
had been anticipated. Before the next return is issued a
further addition will ba made to the supply of gold. The
present increase amounts to £1,436,148, against a recorded
influx of £1,186,000, showina: that in addition to our importations about £250,000 in sovereigns has been returned from provincial circulation. There has also besn a reduction in the note
circulation of £376,610, making an increase in the total reserve
of £1,?12,758. The proportion of reserve to liabilities has
increased therefore from 33'12 to 37 60 percent. The Bank of
England is now in a position somewhat stronger than prior to
the crisis on the Paris Bonrse. On January 25 the supply of
bullion held by the Bank amounted to £30,400,920 ; it is now
£20,737,213. The reserve was £10,976,115; but it now reaches a
total of £11,748,478, showing a moderate increase in both
instances. On January 25 the proportion of reserve to liabilities
was 39 per cent., and it is now 37"60 per cent. This reduction
does not materially affect, however, the general position, the
liabilities of the Bank having been augmented under the heads
of public and private deposits, due in a groat measure to the
collection of the revenue.
Money was wanted in the earlf part of the week, chiefly on
acconnt of the settlement on the Stock Exchange, which
proved, however, to be lighter than for some time past. The
directors of the Bank of England charged as much as 7 per
cent for loans on the best of securities, and on the Stock
Fzchange loans were only obtainable at 10 to 12 per cent per
annum. Since the settlement was completed, the demand for
money has subsided, bnt there has been a fair inquiry for loans
for short periods. The discount market has been very quiet,
and the quotations are as follows
considerable interest, and

United States has caused a very dull feeling to pervade the
trade in this country, and prioea bare declined to the extent of
48. to 28. per quarter. The supply of produce afloat being atiU
large, and the weather being very favorable for agricultural
work, millers operate with great caution and only to supply
actual wants. At the close of the week there has been ratht^r
more disposition shown to buy, but the trade is greatly wanting
in animation and there are no signs of improvement.
The
Australian crop gathered in at the close of last year la now ia>
process of shipment. The yield is understood to be decidedly
superior to the small crop of 1880, but is not believed to b«
equal to that of 1879. With the existing large sopplies, buyem
can well afford to operate cautiously and await the result of
the Indian, Egyptian and Chilian harvests, - the time for
securing which is not so very far distant. We must now eipect, however, our own supplies to fall off considerably, as
British farmers, out of a small crop, have been marketing their
produce freely since the commencement of the season.
Advices from Vienna state that for five weeks neither ralanor snow fell in Austria until Thursday, when there was aa
hour's rain. The drought is inspiring the most serious apprehensions in all quarters. On the one hand Vienna is threatened
with a total failure of the water supply, the reservoirs in the
neighboring mountains being now perilously low ; but, in the
second place, the country is menaced with a far more dire
calamity. Unless there is soon a plentiful downpour of rain,
the crops in most parts of the empire will be in the greateat
danger, and the farmers, who have had to suffer much of late
years, will be ruined. It may be observed, however, that inEngland we have had a remarkably dry autumn and winter,
and yet farmers were never more pleased with the condition of
their land, and with the appearance of their crops.

Tennessee Bonds. Prominent citizens of Tennessee have
been in New York conferring with bondholders regarding the
State debt.
This delegation suggests as the most feasible
measure a funding scheme based on 50 per cent of the present
indebtedness, with 5 or 6 per cent, interest. It is also proposed
that the settlement shall be based on the price paid by the
bondholder for his securities, on the ground that a settlement
is predicated upon the equities rather than upon the technical
rights of the parties. The Governor will not, it is said, convene
an extra session of the Legislature unless some distinct proposition is previously made by the bondholders.

" The earnings from traffic on these lines, and the line from
Koodhouse to Louisiana, including the bridge over the Mississippi River owned by our company, amounts to 43-13 per cent,
of the entire gross earnings during the year. The statement
of total passenger traffic on all our lines shows an apparent
decrease in earnings from through passengers, and a very large
increase in the earnings from local passengers, which without
explanation is likely to lead to an errimeous conclusion. During
the entire year our company has been comoelled by competition
to sell tickets between its terminal and junction stations at very
low rates, which has induced a large number of through passengers to purchase local tickets. We have no means of showing accurately the actual number of local or through passengers during the year. The tonnage of freight transported one
mile during the year was 34,464,753 tons, or 7 16-100 per cent,
less than in 1880. The reduction was mainly in wheat, com
and flour. The reduction in the quantity of wheat being
2,968,881 bushels, or 46 89-100 per cent.; corn, 3,428,396 bushels, or 26 92-100 per cent.; flour, 310,420 barrels, or 31 4-10

cent.
"The increased cost of operating and maintaining our lines
dnnng the last year has been in part the result of increased
prices paid for labor and materials. But the severity
of the
.last winter, the unusual amount of snow obstructing

the tracks
in January and February, followed by extremely
dry weather
in August and September, involving a large amount of
damage
(especially in Missouri) from accidental Area ignited
by sparks
from locomotives, and damage caused by floods and storms
in
autumn, have also contributed largely to that result
" As some of our shareholders appear to believe
that our
railway is mainly supported by earnings derived
directly from
the transportation of the products of farms, the
fonowing

books for the
puroose of showing the gro(to,,eamingg from that

(For the year ending December 31, 1881.)
The annual report of President Dickson says in reference tO'
1881: " The business of the year yielded a profit on the capital'
stock of a fraction over 10}6 per cent. The policy of restriction^
was judiciously applied by the producing compaiiies daring theyear, benefiting producer and consumer alike. Nearly uniform
prices were maintained, and the violent fluctuations which are
inseparable from an over-stocked market were avoided, and
while prices were fairly remunerative to the producer, they
were satisfactory to the consumer, and led to the consumption
of the largest required quantit}'. Consumption not having
overtaken the ability to produce, the mines were operated on
half time for nearly the first half of the year.
"The leased lines of the company show satisfactory results.

Philadelphia & Erie Railroad.
{For tlie year ending December 31, 1881.)
The general remarks in the annual report state that " it has
t)een found necessary to still farther incruase the operating
facilities of the road by additions to the car-shopa, sidings at various points, and double track near Milton. The aggregate cast of
this work during 1881 was $135,278 as against |lO»i,667 in 1880.
These expenditures, while not an actual operating charge, have
l>een cla.<ised as extraordinary expenses, and paid from the
«arnings of the property. The means for the payment of the
2.000,(X)0 of currency and Xi)00,000 of sterling bonds, the principal of which matured March 31, 1881, were provi(ied by the
«ala of $S.2t!3,000 of generul mortgage loan of date July ],
1869, said bonds being issued in registered form for $1,000
each, bearing interest at the rate of five per cent per annum.
All said maturing bond.s, with the exception of three currency
for $1,000 each and one sterling for £300, have been redeemed
and canceled, the money for the payment of the bonds still
outstanding being held by the Penn.sylvania Railroad Company
for the redemption of the same on presentation."

Atlantic tt Pacific.— The Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe
Railroad Company and the Southern Pacific Railroad Company
have adjusted their differences in regard to the Atlantic &
Pacific Road. By the terms of the compromise, however, neither
the Atchison nor the Atlantic & Pacific surrender any of their
rights to build in California. The agreement stipulates that
the Atlantic & Pacific Road is to be completed during the carrent year to the Colorado River. The Southern Pacific will
build east to meet it, as the act of Congress of July 27, 1866, requires, and agrees to pay to the Atlantic & Pacific 2.1 per cent.
of its gross earnings on through business, which is to be applied to the payment of interest on the Atlantic & Pacine
bonds, the same as the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe and the St.
Louis & San Francisco companies. The Atlantic & Pacific, in
consideration of this agreement being carried out, stipulates
that the present subscription shall be reduced from $16,500,000
to less than |6,.')00,000. Of the latter amount about $5,000,000
will be required to finish and equip its road to the Colorado
River, and the balance to build its Indian Territory division.
nnlTalo N. Y. & rhiladeluhla.— A mortgage has been recorded in the Cattarangu.f, Wyoming and Erie county clerks'
offices, given by the liuffalo New York & Philadelphia Railroad
Compauy to the United States Trust Company of New York,
for the sum af $11,000,000. The bonds are consolidated first
mortgage coupon bonds payable in gold forty years from date,
with interest at six per cent, semi-annually.
Central of New Jersey.— At Trenton, Feb. 24, in the United
States Circuit Court, a bill was filed asking for an injunction to
restrain the New Jersey Central Railroad Company from issuing additional stock, under the provisions of the bill recently
A temporary injunction was

granted and was made returnable March 7, when the qaeation
will come up at Trenton.
^The law permitting railroads to increase their stock was
passed by both Houses over the veto of Governor Ludlow,
although he is a good lawyer and held that the bill is uncon-

Cincinnati Sandusky & Cleveland.— This company and the
Columbus Springlield & Cincintati Railroad have filed a suit
against the Inaiana Bloomington & Western Railroad, at
Springfield. In March last the C. S. & C. Railroad, from Sand-

and Columbus to Springfield, was leased to
the I. B. & W. Railroad Company for a term of years, for a
consideration of 33 per cent, of the gross receipts of the two

roads. Several years before, the section. 24 miles, of the C. S. &
C. Road, from the passenger depot in Springfield to Dayton,
was leased to the C. C. C. & I. Railroad Company for ninetynine years, with privilege of renewal, for consideration of 35
per cent, of gross receipts. The suit is for a construction by
W., to determine
the court upon the lease to the I. B.
whether the C. S. & C. shall receive their quota upon the
entire receipts of this section, as they claim is their due, or
only upon the percentage named in the leese to the C C. C. & I.,
as the I. B. & W. managers claim. The petition filed is for allowance of $33,000, amount claimed due the C. S. & C. Company
for six months settled for, and involves the payment of the' sum
of about $70,000 per annum for ninety-nine years.

that the company had as much power to get out of its embar*

No one denied that it naa the latter power, and yet that power
was not expressly stated in its charter. If it has the right of
borrowing, it ought to have the power contended for it In the
