MORTGAGE BONDS,

The title of the ST. LOUIS AND IRON MOUNTAIN
RAILROAD having been confirmed by act of the Gen¬
eral Assembly of the State of Missouri, and the bonds
declared valid, the work of extending the same to a
connection with the Southern system of roads at Co¬
lumbus, Kentucky, is now going rapidly forward;
91 miles being in profitable operation, 45 miles of new
work graded with rails enough on hand for 47 miles ;
it is expected that the whole line from St. Louis to
Belmont, 192 miles, will be opened for business early
next year, so that there will be a continuous line from
St. Louis to Mobile, New Orleans and other Southern
cities. Avery large trallic is anticipated. The old
part of the road (91 miles) already earns enough to se¬
cure ab 1 he luterest on the whole mortgage £ebt, and
the’extension completed will vastly increase the earn¬
ings. The proceeds of these bonds going Into the ex¬
tension of tlie road adds to the security, and a pro¬
jected branch 8 uthwestwardly from Pilot Knob for
which a cash subsidy of $15,000 oer mile is granted by
the State as a free gift to the c* mpauy, will add very
much to the value of t heir property.

Regarding the funded debt, the
president in his report says:
changed in two particulars; first, by the payment
and cancellation of $731,000 of our maturing sinking fund bonds ; and
second, by the substitution therefor, by exchange and otherwise, of
ronsolidated mortgage bonds of the company, and also by disposing of
a portion of the latter bonds for the Meredoeia Bridge and other pur¬
poses properly chargeable to capital.
The arrangement made some
time since for the extension of the first mortgage bonds, secured on the
Ohio and Indiana divisions of the road, is now practically accomplished.
It is also anticipated that during the yenr 1868, the balance of $269,000
of sinking fund bonds will be extinguished by exchange f r consolidated

CHRONICLE.
THE
Railroad.—An erroneous statement has
to the effect that this company had
negotiated a loan of $80,000,000, all taken by its own stockholders.
It is hardly necessary to deny the accuracy of such an extravagant
statement, and we do so merely to call attention to the real facts
appearing in circulars issued to the stockholders of the Chicago, Bur¬
lington and Quincy Railroad Company, by its Board of Directors, which
have been sent to us by Mr. Denison, Chairman of that Board.
The
assent of a majority of stockholders having been given to the proposal
that $3,000,000 bonds of the Burlington and Missouri River Road should
be taken by the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Company, the follow¬
ing, from a circular to the stockholders [of the latter [company auuouuc
ing the fact, will explain the whole transaction ;
A very large majority of our stockholders having responded to our
circular of Februaiy 20th, anJ expressed their approval of the pro-'
posed aid to the Burlington and Missouri River Railroad Company, to
secure the completion of ita road to the Missouri River, we have tn«
opportunity to offer you the $1,200,000 convertible Bonds which we are
to take up, aud the $1,800,000 Land Mortgage Bonds whirh that com¬
pany are entitled to issue on the 100 miles to be built as the final sec¬
tion. The two classes, amounting to $3,000,000 in the aggregate, are
to be sold together in the proportion of three Land Mortgage Bonds to
two convertible.
The Land Bonds are seven per cents, have twentyfour and a half years to run, (to October 1, 1893,) are the first and only
ien cn the road, rolling stock, franchise and land grant of about 400,000
acres—the lands believed to be sufficient to provide a sinking fund for
all the bonds secured on the whole property. The convertible are to
be eight per cent ten year bouds, to be redeemed in the preferred stock
of that company at or any time before maturity, and are to be taken

that Liverpool shipments will not pay out at over$I 07@1 08.
Besides there has been latterly an increased desire, to realize'

quantities are nearly due from

new mixed closing at $1 16.
Rye has met with a good distilling demand, and prices rule
very firm.
Oats have had considerable speculative support,
and the wants of the trade have been large, upon which prices
have ruled quite firm.
Barley and Barley Malt are in very
small supply, while the demand, though not large, is urgent,
and at the close holders are firm at very extreme prices.

gradually increasing firmness of market during the earlier part of
a somewhat rapid advance in
prices for all grades of jaw sugar. An active demand from the trade
and refiners, and to some extent also ^for speculation, has been the
nursing cause of this result. A desire to lay in stock beyond the need
of present consumption has apparently influenced1 the action of buyers

setting in of the rainy season in Cuba. In refined sugars no proportion¬
ate advance has tafcen place, though ptices for these grades are better*
