principal features of tlie past week have been the further depression in speculative stoclis, and the prevailing dulness in the
other departments of financial business.
Government bonds,
since the Treasury sale noticed last vfeek, liave been less active,
and the demand from both
city and out-of-town purchasers has
Railroad stocks are greatly depressed by the
quarreling among the officers of the leading trunk lines and
one of the worst features of the railroad " war" is in the fact
that it tends to demoralize mercantile business, as well as stock

duration, and altogether unsettles freight rales, as merchants do
not know from day to day what the terms will be to-morrow, nor
does one party know for how low a price another may ship his
goods.
The local money market has been easy at 3 to 4^ per cent.
Of very choice commercial paper, some sales have been made as
low as 4 to 4} per cent., but this is exceptional, and prime paper
is quoted at 5@G percent, with the next grades at 7810 per
cent.
Most of the legal tenders which went into the Sub Treasury on the sales of gold last week, have not yet been paid out.
The Bank of England, on Thtirsday, reported an increase in bullion for the week of .€119,000, the discount rate remaining
unchanged at 3 per cent.
The last statement of the New York City Clearing House
banks, issued April 29, showed an increase ofr $875,13,5 in the
excess above their 2.5 per cent, legal reserve, the whole of such
excess being $9,.533,62o, against $8 658,500 the previous week.

—There has been less
business in govappears that the Treasury sale had
the effect of concentrating business into the few days just before
and after its occurrence. It is cot known whether the new fives
taken last week will be sold here or mostly sent abroad as a
matter of business, however, there would be no profit in sending
them to London, as they can be bought there lower in moderate
amounts, though the purchase of bo large a lot would probably
put up prices. There has been some demand here this week
from Baltimore and other points southward.

Railroad and IfllsGellaneous Stocks. — The stock market
has continued to show great depression on most of the active
and the decline in prices culminated with a fall in Michigau
Central to-day to 4"2}.
In partitil explanation of the present situation of stocks, it may be stated briefly that the Messrs. Vanderbili and Jiiy Gould are both in a position to depress prices,
and with the weight of two such parties, from different directions,
bearing on the market, it is not remarkable that a decline should
take place. It is true that tlie attitude of the parties named is
altogether different Jay Gould is accredited with being thei
leader of the bear clique, which, commencing its operations
against Western Union Telegraph some two months ago, has since
i been operatine heavily against that and other stocks, and has carried down nearly the whole list. The Messrs. Vanderbilt in their
stand on the question of railroad freights are in a posiiion of virtual hostility to the maintenance of railroad earnings, though we
cannot pretend to say who are the parties most in fault for the
present disagreement.
It seems an absurdity for the Grand
Trunk of Canada, in its present financial position, to attempt to
dictat e terms to the X. Y. Central, as another railroad war, long con
tinned, would be suicide for the former Company. If they cannot
get the terms they desire, they should get the best pos.sible from
Mr. Vanderbilt, and remain on friendly terms
it is only the
Chinaman who commits hi,ri-kari when he cannot get what he
wants.
The Post, to day. says that Mr. Joy, of the
Michigan Central, telegraphs that he will refuse to prarate with the Grand Trunk Line in its recent reduction
in rates for through business, and if he holds to this wise resolution the latter company will probably be driven out of their
reduced tariff. The net earnings of the Michigan Central for
March, just published, are $195,801. Tlie latest gross earnings
are given below. The extraordinary decline in this stock to day
is said to be from other causf s than sales by the prominent
directors, and chiefiy from the fact that there was no clique or
speculative party to support it. The attacks on Vi estern Union
Telegraph seemed to culminate about Wednesday, and there has
been strong buying since then, with a decided advance in price.
This stock was sold in some heavy lots, '• seller 60," on Wednesday, and on Thursday morning came the news of the breaking
of all the Atlantic cable lines connecting with the Western
Union leaving only the direct cable working, which connects
with the Atlantic and Pacific. These facts occasioned a good
deal of unfavorable comment.
The Western Union has obtained
control of the Southern and Atlantic line, but upon what terms
i: is impossible yet to ascertain.
The coal stocks close weak, but
the outside public must operate in the dark, as no information is
given of their financial condition. Railroad earnings keep up
well as compared with 1875, and a fair increase is shown in most
of the April reports thus far received.

Net gain for 1875
increase of earnings and expenses for the year are attributable, in part, to the leases made Oct. 1, 1875, with the Kansas
City Topelta & Western Railroad Company, a road running from
Kansas City to Topeka (a distance of 67 miles), and the Pueblo
& Arkansas Valley Railroad Company, a road running from the
west line of the State of Kansas (in process of construction) to
Pueblo, Col., 148i miles. T.l.'e Colorado & New Mexico Railroad
Company, from the State line to Granada, Col., a distance of 11
miles, being consolidated iiito the P. & A. V. Railroad, Oct. 1, the
lease with this company is cancelled. The aggregate net earnings
on these leases from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31, 1875, were $40,525 57.

Under a law passed by Congress some tliree years since, all the
railroads which have received a lani grant are obliged to apply
to the Court of Claims for cnmpensation for all transportation
done for the United States Govsrnment. The amount due for
transportation to Dec. 31, 1875, is about $130,000. Tlie case has
been argued in the Court of Claims for our approved account to
April 1, 1875, $08,690 13, and will speedily reach the Supreme
Court, where alone the question can be finally decided.
The notable event of the year, and the one which promises to
be a source of large revenue to the company, is the construction
of the Pueblo & Arkansas Valley Railroad, from the terminus of
your road to Pueblo, Col., which will be completed on or before
March 1, 187G, This road has been leased by your company lor
the term of thirty yeirs without any guaranty and the value of
this enterprise to the company cannot be over-estimated. It gives
;
us a western terminus, wbich commands a large amount of traffic,
both in freight and pas.sengers, east and west. It opens a new
route for the tourist to " the Switzerland of America." It furnishes a ready market ior much of the produce of Kansas in the
mining regions of Colorado. It provides for the use of the company, and of the settlers all along our liue, a superior quality of
coal at a cheap price.
It brings our road nearer ly a hundred
miles to the vast and rich territory lying south and west of Kansas than any other railroad.
The report of the Land Commissioners shows that the sales of
laud during the year past (75,415 acres) amount to $410,409, at an
average price ot $5 59 per acre. The sales for the last four months
of the year were larger than those of the eight months previous.

There las, therefore, been for the past half-year no balance
available for dividend ou the preference stocks, and the above
sum of .£36'2, added to the balance from the last account of
£1,324, makes a total amount to be carried forward to the next
account of £1,6S6. The operations of the half-year have resulted
in a diminution of gross receipts (after deduction of discount on
American currency) of .€83,388, or 7.53 per cent., as compared
with the corresponding period of 1874, which has, however, been
nearly compensated for by the reduction of £72,051 elFected in
the working expenses. The net revenue, therefore, has only
been reduced by £11,337, having been £305,460 against £210,787

or nearly 10 per cent as compared with 1S74, has been caused
simply by a diminution in the numbers of the traveling public,
and is an index of the commercial depression which exists. Such
a loss of traffic cannot be completely recouped by reduced train
service, as the accommodation afforded to the public cannot be all
at once restriced; but the executive were enabled during the
half-year to make some reduction in the passenger train miles
run. The loss in the freight traffic of .£49,070, or nearly 7 per
cent, accompanied with an increased tonnage of 59,958, as compared with 1874, is the result of entirely lower rates. The follo«ing comparative statement shows the average distance each

In reviewing the events of the whole year of 1875, the proprietors cannot fail to observe that the company has passed through
a period of great difficulty and anxiety. Up to the close of 1874

This deficiency
in the traffic earnings is chiefly due to the continuance of the very low rates, especially on through busines-,
to which reference was made in the last report.
Towards the end
of the balf-yf ar some improvement took place, but too late to
bring up the traffic receipts to the former level. The volume of
traffic was in excess of that of the corresponding period in 1875
ty about 115,000 tons of freight.
The permanent way and works throughout the Great Western
system have been maintained in an unexceptionally good condition.
Rather more than 31 miles of steel track have been laid
down during the half-year. In the working expenses is included
the sum of £7,453, being the balance of the change of-guage
account. This account is now finally closed, and there will be
no further debit to revenue in respect of it. The total amount

3,345,491, showed a decrease in floating debt of $565,491, but
the interest on the mortgage debt has not been paid. Starting
with a cash balance of $147,503, the receiver had ou Jan. 1, 1870,
t cash balance of $301,507. He has paid out, on account of debts
accruing before he became receiver, $5,003,503, and has received
on such account $1,339,3^)8.
Mr. Jewett considers the subject of the receiver's paying money
to save to the Erie Railway Company the coal lands in Pennsylvania. The amount paid by the receiver on this account last year
was £331,714. Mr. Jewett, in his testimony, gives his view that
the contracts under which over 8,000 acres of anthracite coalland and 20,000 acres of bituminous coal-land were secured for
the first at about $3,000,000 and the second at
the Erie R ihvay
•boot $1,000,000— were, at the timej they were made, good contracts lor the road, and now, when only $700,000 is duo on the
first and $000,00J on the second, it would be folly to sacrifice
what has already been paid by a failure to pay the rest.
The January statement of the receiver shows that he has inoreased his certificates of debt $193,460, and his cash balance only
'$13,814, while the extraordinary expenses are $39,200 for locomotives, $13,950 tor construction, &c., and $33,423 for payments
on mortgages and to the two coal companies. The following is
the statement of the receiver's certificates of debt issued and
jredeemed in January, 1870.

some of said bonds have been put afloat on tbe market, and are
being preseed for sain to brokers and others in Now York'. No

Long Island Railroads.— The Tribune sayi that at a Joint
meetiLKor tbe directors of the three Long Island railroad*, a
compact was completed by -whicli the Long Island liailroad
Company takes an indefinite lease ol the Flushing and Korth
Shore and Southern railroads, thus reducing under one eeoeral
management the Lonfir Island roads ru ning from Huoter'a
Point to all stations east on the Island.
This result was
attained through the influence of Mr. Poppenhusen, who lately
obtained a cintroUing interest in all three roads. The Long
Island Railroad Company, in accepting tbe lease, does not accept
the liabilities of the other roads, the mortgages on those roads
remaining as before. It i» anticipated that a large gain will be.
made by avoiding competition in rates and reducing the operating expenses.
Missonri Kansas & Texa«.— It is reported by telegraph that,
under a decree of Judge Dillon in Davenport, the Missouri Kansas
& Texas Railroad has been transferred from the hands of Wm.
Bond, the receiver, to the Union Trust Company of New Yorlc.
Under this arrangement it is stated that Mr. Bond is appointed
general manager of the road.
Mortgage Loans in Nebraska.— A telegram from Omaha,
Neb., May 4, says: Judge Dillon, in the United States Circuit
Court, in the case of Moore, assignee in bankruptcy, against the
Mutual Life Insurance Company, rendered a decision adverse to
the insurance company. Tbe Court holds that its loans on real
estate in this State, amounting to some $500,000, are usurious,
and the penalty provided by the statute must bo inflicted on the
company.
This decision involves the loan of $3,000,090 or
$3,000,000 in this State. The legal rate of interest in Nebraska
is 10 per cent, or any rate on express contract not greater than 13.
Usury prohibits the recovery of any interest on the principal.
New York and Boston Railroad.— The New York
and Boston
Railroad will be sold under a decree of foreclosure at White
Plains, in Westchester county, on May 9, to satisfy the first
mortgage. Tliis road was the first division of the New York
Boston & Montreal Railway. A decree of foreclosure has been
granted against the Dutchess & Columbia Railroad Company, the
third division, and the Harlem Extension has been sold, leaving
the Putnam & Dutchess and Pine Plains Si Albany Railroads to
satisfy the mortgage issued
by the New York Boston &
Railway Company, which amounts to $12,2'i0,000.
Bonds to the amount of $6,250,000 were negotiated by Bitchoffsheim & Goldschmidt of London, and the money thus obtained
was used in completing the New York and Boston division, improving the Dutchess & Columbia and Harlem Extension divisions,
partially grading tbe Putnam & Dutchess, and surveying the Pine
Plains & Albany division, no portion of the latter division havings
been graded, iVfio York Tribune.

PeniisylvaHla Railroad. Tbe annual report of this important
corporation was given some weeks since in the CllKO.MCl.B.
From the full paiupliiet report, since issued, we have the detailed
statement of all tbe stocks and boods owned by the company,
which go to make up the enormous amount of $70,750,012 given
as the cot thereof to the Pennsylvania Railroad. The par value
of these stocks and bonds is $90,045,86!), and their actual market
value is a matter of vast importance to the company. Nearly the
whole of these securities are issued by ?ompani'>s leased or in some
way under the protection of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and their
valuo depends largely, in many caees almost entirely, on that
protection. A decline of only 1 per cent, in their value is a loss

Portland & O^deusbnrg'. It is statfd that parties interested
in the Vermont portion of ttie Portland & Ogdensburg road, from
the Connecticut River to Swanton, are seeking authority to get a
preference mortgage of $.WO,000 put below the present bonded
debt of $2,300,000, in order to complete the line and open it
through to its Ogdensburg and Montreal connections. Ot the
whole distance ol 117 miles, only 35 miles are incomplete, and, if
the mean.s are obtained' at once, this portion can be finished and
the road fully opened by August. The prospects are now said to
be encouraging, more than two-thirds of thenecefsary proportion
of the present bonded interest having agrf ed to the arrangement.
If carried out it would give a road 117 miles long, with a bonded
debt of 13,800,000, or iesa than $24,000 a mile.

should be. and that these differences should be adjusted en a basis of equity
to ail intercHts, we have, through telegraphic correspondence, requested Mr.
Ilickson, of the Qrand Trnuk line, and Governor Smith, of the Vermont Cea.
tral, to meet us In New York and talk the subject over, to see whether we
could not arrive at some satisfactory basis of adjus'ment. We believe tliat
yonr shorter line between the Weal a?id New Enrlani ought to make a reasonable concession to the Grand Trunk ronte, which embraces that line, the Vermont Central and other connections, owing to ita local on and climatic and
other causes incidental to it aa a throug'i route.
In order to protect and promote the interests of the various roads of the
country, as well ae the beat interests of the pub ic, we trust ynu may find it
your interest to agree. If it can be arranged, toallow the Grand Trunk route
the following scale of didercnces on east-bound traffic to competitive points
in New England, which are much less than those heretofore existing, and
which we deem, under the circumstances, to be reasonable:
On live stock, 7 cents on cut-meata and perit^habie property. 6 cents; ea
first and second class, of which there is bnt a very lim'ted quantity. 4cent9.
The Grand Trunk to carry third and fourth class, which embraces 90 per
cent, of the entire traffic, at equal rates, na fixed from time ti) time. The
matter of west-bound rate* from New England to remain as adjusted between
yonr line and the lines of the Grand Trunk route.
Looking over the whole ground, it seems to us that if we can prevail on
Mr. Ilirkson to agree to this schedule, you ."hould agree, as well for your own
interesta as those of all the other lines in the country, to make this adjustment, and, if it is made, that the Grand Trunk ronte should then become one
of the Eastern Trunk lines, and be a pnrt of the organiziiion for making aad
adjusting rates and classiflcatioiis from time to time, on the general basis
that has prevailed hmong iha four trunk injs during the imst yeir. By
adopting this policy its result must be to protect larg-j amounts of property,
owned iu this and other countries, from a di-'stiuctioii that wethink. uader the
circumstances, is not watranted, and we believe that Ihe adjustment of this
whole uiatier rests entirely with you. The pending coneequencea are, in our
opinion, so serioua that we must respectfully request y-iu tog'v us an answer
by Saturday morning of this week. If you will addrefs yonr reply to u-j to
the care (;f Mr Jewett, at the Erie Ruiivv^y office, we thall be gbul to coopernte to the end Ihit an adjustment of existing and anticipated diillcuities
may bi^ leached, and a destructive competiiion be avo'ded.

The speculation in pork and lard tended strongly downward in
the early part of the week, and the lowest prices in many months
were made, mess pork going at $'21 40@2I 50 on the spot, and
$21 2o@21 50 lor spring and summer deliveries. Lard sold down
to f 13 75 for prime Western steam on the spot and $12 65@13 90
for the future. These relatively low prices were followed by an
active demand for export in lotson the spot, and to cover contracts
in the speculative account, upon which a considerable recovery of
prices took place, especially for delivery In the summer months.
To-day, pork was quiet, but lard showed a further advance, wiih
activiiy.
The closing prices bid for pork were $21 C5 for June,
$21 75 for July, and $21 90 for August and September; and for
lard, $12 97i for June, $13 12} for July, $13 22i for August, and
$13 30 for September. Bacon and cut meats have slightly declined, with a fair business.

quiet. Butter, at some further decline, has become more active.
Cheese has been quiet, and closes lower good to prime factories,

Coffee has been more active, but prices are without essential
change the statistical position continues to exert a depressing
influence.
Rice is dull. Molasses has been active, the sales of
Cardenas and Matanzaa aggregating 5,000 bhda., all at or on the
basis of 33 cents for 50 test. Sugars have been in fair demand
at unchanged prices. Teas dull, and fruits quiet.
Ocean freights have continued to advance, and show much
firmness, berth room especially, which is now rather scarce
grain charter tonnage is firm but the increased arrivals of
vessels suitable to the petroleum trade, have caused a slight

The eoano of prices in the flour market has again been downward the past week, and yet no considerable redaction can be
made in quotations. Desirable lines of low grades are not abundant, an! the local trade have purchased fairly of the medium
and ttetter grades and yet, such is the apparent eagerness of
holders to sell, that weakness of tone is imparted to the market.
Receipts are moderate.
The moat conspicuous of the depressing
influences have been the recent decline in wheat and an upward
turn to ocean freights. To day, there was a steadier tone generally, with a better demand for good lines of shipping eitras.
The wheat market was quite ac ive at some decline early in the
week, holders meeting with much readiness the views of shippers
but, latterly, holders have not been inclined to make further
redactions, and business has been on a limited scale, with quotations more or less unsettled.
Receipts are moderate at the
Western markets, owing to the occupation of the farmers with
feeding operations. There is some reduction, consequently, in

Prices of dress goods have shown such a shrinkage that tome reehipments, in bond, have been made to Europe. Silks have been

limited, demand, and large lines of white goods were disposed of
at auction. Embroideries and laces were in fair request, but
prices of the former are low and unsatisfactory.
