America was in the position to take gold from us, she could
take it now, as money is very cheap in this country, but it is

evident that ocr indebtedness to foreign countries is
by no
means great, and that the balance of trade is in our favor. On
the other hand, the continuance of
the Bank rate at 5 per cent
is undesirable for the reason
that, as money in the open market
18 at so very moderate a point, many
merchants are disposed
to assume that the directors of
the Bank of England view the
future, if not with apprehension,
at least not very favorably;
and this is obviously calculated to exercise an
adverse influence

upon our trade— a

by no means

to be wished for.

IFrom our own correspondent.
London, Satarday, Oct. 28, 1882.
The money market continues in a very easy conditio in, and
the rate for choice bills is not more thaa 3}^ per cent; but the
Bank of England directors at their weekly meeting on Thursday decided on making no change in their published minimum,
which is, consequently, still 5 per cent. So large a difference
is to be regretted, and there are a few who contend that a reduction to 4 per cent might have been made this week ; but the
majority seem to consider that th« Bank authorities are justified
in the policy they have pursued. Those, however, as far as I
know, who support the course which is being adopted by the
Bank directors were only a few weeks ago, when the rate was
5 per cent, contending that a 6 per cent rate, though not immediately necessary, should be at once adopted. The probable
withdrawals of coin, in connection with the harvest and with
augmented commercial engagements, together with a threatened demand for gold for exportation to the United States,
were cited as causes justifying such a movement.
But those alarms have proved groundless ; the provincial requirements for coin for harvest purposes have been scarcely
perceptible.
The improvement in our autumn trade, to the extent, certainly, that had been anticipated, has not taken place,
and there have been no exports of gold to the United States.
The 6 per cent rate of discount has not only, therefore, become
entirely unnecessary, but the open market has been rapidly
falling away from the official rate, until, as stated, a difference
of as much as 11^ per cent is observed. It is now said that a
reduction in the Bank rate to 4 per cent is impracticable, as it
would lead to an adverse mov'ement in the exchanges, and gold
would be speedily sent to New York, at least in sufficient quantities to create anxiety ; and it is also contended that the transmission of a moderate quantity of coin to Scotland :for a brief
period is a sufficient reason for allowing so great a discrepancy
to exist between the official and the open market rates of discount. It is very clear, from present indications, that there is
only little prospect of the value of money in the open market
improving, and consequently, if the present abnormal condition of things is to be terminated, the

directors of the

will probably
per cent until the return
movement of coin from Scotland takes place, which will be
towards the end of November.
There has been very little demand either for loans or discounts during the week. A " settlement" has been in progress
on the Stock Exchange, but the inquiry for loans has not perceptibly increased, the rate at the banks and discount houses
on the best security being only 2 to 2}^ per cent. Mercantile
paper is still very scarce, and there is no prospect of any increase in the supply. The following are the present quota-

Ihere are outstandiDg upon the road about $775,000 of first

—The

Mexican Financier reports
that "the Minister of Public Works has just signed a contract
with Mr. Delfln Sanchez, Superintendent of the Morelos R. R.,
for completing the railroad across the isthmus of Tehuantepec.
The road has been partly built by an American company, but
was declared forfeited last August, as more fully referred to in
our editorial columns. The Government has determined to complete the road, and Mr. Delfln Sanchez will at once proceed to
the United States to purchase materials. The contractors bind
themselves to adhere strictly to the plans already adopted if
modiflcations are deemed necessary, these must have Governmental approval. The work is to begin next November, and the
entire road is to be completed on or before the last day of February, 1885." In commenting upon the subject editorially the
Financier says: "The contract just closed by tha Mexican
Government for the completion of the Tehuantepec Railroad, as
given in our railroad column, promises to be the end of a complicated and vexatious question, whose late is.sues have caused
much comment in the United States. The subject was deemed
important enough to form an item in the last Presidential Message to Congress, and severe criticism had been passed on the
action of the Governme-Jt declaring the concession to that road
forfeited.
We hold that these criticisms, while very natural to
the 'injured' party, were not well-founded." * * * » "So
far, however, from showing an unyielding demand, the Mexicia
Telinanteppc (.Hcxico),

;

Government did grant repeated extensions for the work. In his
message President Gonzalez says 'Four different times did the
Executive extend the terms of the contract. But seeing that in
spite of such extensions the work on the road did not advance
in the lea.st, and after duly notifying the company that no further extension of time would be granted, and the company decidedly failing to fulfill their engagements, the Executive was
finally compelled to declare the concession forfeited.'
This is
the other, and equally important side of the question,''

Quotations for foreign exchange are as follows, the hlgbert
prices being the posted rates of leading bankers:

day there has been an impression creeping over Wall Street
that Mr. Folger acted very wisely in not resigning liis
position as Secretary of the Treasury. As if to sliow his good
purposes, and that his policy will not be clianged by tiie elec-

he sent an order on Thursday to the Assistant Treasurer
Yorli to redeem, without rebate of Interest, any of tlie
called bonds yet outstanding, to the amount of not over
$5,000,000 per week, thus bringing the $15,000,000 caUed bonds
due Jan. 18 within the limits of those whicli may be tlius
redeemed on presentation.
The great topic of tlie week, of couree, has been the result
of the general elections, wliich give a majority in the next
Congress to the Democrats. There can be no change in tlie
Executive of the Federal Government before March, 1885, and
the Democrats in Congress will, in the meantime, be placed on
their good behavior to an extent hardly known before, so that
any depression in stocks at this time based on the idea of
extravagant action to be taken in the National Legislature, is
founded on the most shadowy of future possibilities. A common-sense view of the situation leads one to conclude that the
weakness in stocks has been engineered by parties who were
working for it or that prices might have declined tliis week
without any election, and that the latter was merely used as a
convenient handle to effect the result. Most assuredly, the
railroad earnings for October, whicli liave Iseen compiled so
fully and comprehensively in tlie tables given on another page,
do not show any cause for dissatisfaction, but give an indication

United Stales Bonds.— The result of the elections has not
had much .effect upon the prices of government bonds, and
this fact tends to prove that the decline in railroad and miscellaneous stocks was manipulated. It is reported on what
seems to be good authority that Mr. W. H. Vanderbilt lias
recently sold $10,000,000 of his 4 per cent bonds at private sale.
The closing prices at the N. Y. Board have been as follows:

of the large traffic in the season of 1882-3 upon which we are
now just entering. The N. Y. State canals wiU be closed on
the 7th of December.

Aside from the political outlook, the Western Union
decision has attracted more attention tlian any other event of
the week. The opinion of tlie Court says very squarely that
the issue of the stock dividend was void; but with the prospect of an appeal to the Court of Appeals, and the delay and
uncertainty incident thereto, it is impossible now to foretell
what the final result will be. But the unfavorable outcome
of Mr. Gould's recent litigations or negotiations excites a good
deal of comment first came the Story decision against the
elevated roads, giving property holders a right to recover
damages; then came the JIutual Union difficulty, entailing

State and Railroad Bonds.— As to Soutliern State bonds,
the result of the elections had a more direct bearing than oa
any other class of securities. The bonds of other States tlian
Tennessee appear to be well sustained, but Tennessee com-

promise bonds sold off to-day to 52. It is true that the lowtax party has been victorious, but there are many who believe that the recent adjustment of the State debt on such a
low interest basis will not be disturbed, and it would be great
folly and bad policy for the party in power to undertake anynew adjustment.
Railroad bonds have been variable and sympathetic with
stocks, and it 'is well worth while for cash buyers to look
about now for satisfactory purchases.

The report

lfeS2.)

states that the increase of business

made

it

imper-

atlTe to largely increase the equipment, and extensive purchases
of cars and locomotives were made in addition to what could
be bnilt in the shops.- Six powerful locomotives have been
bnilt or purchased. Twenty of the old passenger cars in use
upon the opening of the road in 1846, and in recent years used
chiefly for excursion business, have been sold, and in their
place twentj^-two new cars of the best modern style and of

Eighty box
large capacity have been purchased or built.
freight cars and two-handled coal cars have been purchased.
The amount paid for new equipment, after deducing all sums
received for equipment sold, has been $273,659, a much larger
amount than has ever before been expended in a single year.
The whole of this has been charged to the expense and improvement accounts, and while the equipment account on the books
has not been increased the value of the locomotives and cars is
greater than at the beginning of the year. To provide for the
growing business of the company a further increase will be
necessary in the next year, and contracts have already been
made for new cars and engines. The cost, however, will not
probably exceed one half of that expended the past year. The
company has now about twenty-three miles of double track out
of fifty miles between Boston and Fall River, and the directors
contemplate the necessity within a few yeats of completing the
double track for the whole distance. It can probably be done
out of income without interfering with reasonable dividends.
During the year a lease for ninety-nine years has been taken
of the Fall River Railroad, between Fall 'River and New Bedford, under the provisions of chapter 62 of the acts of 1882.
The Boston Clinton Fitchburg & New Bedford Railroad has
exercised its option to share in this lease. The rental is to be
thirty per cent of the gross earnings.
Nearly all the stock and
a major part of the bonds of the Fall River Railroad Company
are held by or in the interest of this company. The business of
the Fall River line to New York has been prosperous during
the year, and a dividend of eight per cent on the shares of the
steamboat company, owned by this coipoiation, has been
received.
The new steamship Pilgrim is nearly completed, and
will be placed on the line next year.
A new freight steamboat has also been built, and will be ready for business by
January 1, 1883. It now seiems that the investment of the
company in the stock of the Steamboat Company will prove
satisfactory.

Notes having more than one year to run have been issued
during the year to nearly the extent authorized the last year,
and It may be necessary during the coming year for the convenient transaction of the business of the company to issue such
notes; and the directors ask for authority to issue notes or
bonds to an amount not exceeding |500,000. The attention of
stockholders is called to the fact that the balance of interest
paid has been reduced the pa»t year by the sum of $41,457.
Vi all the expenditures made in the past year, nothing has
been charged to construction except for the purchase of land
and for the cost of the railroad from Raynham to Taunton,
loo^'fi^^ ^^"u^^^^y.^''^ ^' Taunton. These charges amount to
»J87,3b4.
The dividend was increased in July to 3}i per cent,
wliich can probably be maintained in
future at the same rate,
nnless unforeseen accidents prevent.

J

30, 1882.)
for the late fiscal year has just been made, and it
states that two dividends of 4 per cent each, clear of taxes, have
been earned and declared. The dividends on investments in
the Union Freight Railway and the preferred stock of the
Providence Warren & Bristol Railroad have bet n credited to
interest account. The increase in expenditures has been chiefly
due to the increase of mileage, higher taxation, renewals, repairs and additions to property. Taking advantage of the larger
receipts, many improvements heretofore delayed have been forwarded. Small parcels of land have been purchased in Providence, Pawtucket, Readville, Roxbnry and Bo.ston. At Pawtucket
a freight house, greatly needed, and at Dedham a new passenger station and locomotive house, have been fiuLshed and occupied. An iron highway bridge has been built at Canterbury
Street in Roxbury, rendered necessary by the extension of the
third track. The heavy ledge of rocks near by has been removed. Next year the third track will be completed from Mt.
Hope to Readville, and put in operation as soon as practicable.
All the improvements and additions to rolling stock and property have been charged directly to expense account. The main
line is now entirely equipped with steel, and there are 12
miles of steel rails in the branches.
The earnings and expenses, and the disposition of income,
together with the general balance, were as follows in 1880-81 and

and the Metropolitan C(jmpanyand the New York Company
are the defendants. The tripartite agreement of 1880 provided
for the payment by the JIanbattan Company of 10 per cent
dividends on the stock of the Metropolitan and New York Companies. Under the agreement madr* in October, 1881, this was
reduced to ti per cent. A temporary injunction was granted by
Justice Donohue, restraining the defendant companies from
issaiog certificates of their stock having thereon a memorandum
providing for the payment of interest or dividends at the rote
of 10 per cent per annum on the capital stock of the companies.
The General Term of the Superior Court has handed down
a decision in the Caro suit against the Metropolitan Elevated
Railway Company to restrain it from maintaining or operating
its road in front of his premises.
The Court holds that the application made in behalf of the company to resettle the judgment of the General Term must be denied. The company demurred to Mr. Caro's complaint, and the General Term overruled the demurrer.
Mr. Caro's attorney then entered a judgment based upon the opinion of the Court, according to which
the company was absolutely enjoined forever from running its
trains in front of Mr. Caro s house. The counsel for the company declared that the General Term had no power to grant an
injunction absolutely, but only in the alternative
the injunction to take effect if the company did not indemnify Mr. Caro
for the damages sustained by him. They applied, therefore,
to have the judgment entered by Mr. Caro vacated or resettled.
The Court holds that it has no power to grant the application.

these gentlemen, by their counsel, filed a bill in the Federal

a cross bill making the same allegations, and praying that the
mortgage and bonds be canceled. Judge Caldwell's decision

At the annual meeting for the
election of directors, Mr. Sajje voted only.600 shares, Mr. Cyrus
W. Field only 100, Mr. Gould for himself only 100, and for the
Manhattan Elevated 3,200 shares. The total vote of the Gould
party was 5,246 shares and of the Kneeland party 27,174
shares, although the latter appear to own 52,000 shares. The
following are the directors elected Joseph S. Stout, Jacob
Berry, Elijah Smith, Thomas T. Buckley, Ruf us H. Gilbert,
Sidney Shepard, Joseph N. Burnham, Morillo H. Gillett, Charles

and Morillo H. Gillett Vice-President. JohnE. Body continues
as Se(;retary and Treasurer.
None of the stock converted into

to this a large amount of stock was disfranchised, on account
of the inability of the owners to transfer it on the books of the
company recently. In this way nearly 10,030 shares belonging

complaint sfts forth that the plaintiff brings the action on his
own behalf and on behalf of all others in like situation shareholders of the Mutual Union Telegraph company ; that he
owns seventy-five shares of Mutual Union Telegraph stock ; that
the oiitjinal capital of the Mutual Union Telegraph Company
was $600,000, divided into 0,000 shares of f 100 each, and ihafc
the certificate providing for the increase of the capital of said
company to $10,000,000, divided into 100,000 shares of $100 each,
was not filed, as by statute required, until on or about the 16lh
day of February, 1882. And the allegations are made, in substance, that the agreement for construction and extension of

great detriment of the company. " Wherefore the plaintiff demands that the said modiflcaticjns be decreed to be null and void

Hudson.-In the great suit against
New Yorli Central
this company by the U. S. Government, through J. M. Bailey.
Collector, to recover the tax on the famous scrip dividend of
Dec. 19, 1868, the U. S. Supreme Court has just rendered a
decision iu favor of the company. To a World reporter Mr.

Wra. M. Evarts, of the firm of Evarts Southmayd & Choate,
counsel for the railroad company, related the history of the
suit as follows: "This is an intricate and interesting case, but
I can give you the points in a few words, though Mr. Choate
had the ca-.e in charge. The United States Government levied
its internal revenue taxes under the act of 1864 on the scrip
issued by the New York Central Railroad several years ago, and
which doubled the capital stock of the company. The Government levied this tax as if the scrip was a dividend on the profits
of the railroad. Suit was brought, and on trial in the United
States Circuit Court it was held that the scrip was not taxable.
Appeal was taken of the United States Supreme Court, which
reversed the decision and held that it was tasable, but sent the
case back for retrial. Mr. Choate then appeared and on trial
of the case in the Northern District he showed that a great
part at least of this scrip did not represent profits, but investments of the funds of the company. On this triil the comThe

As to the power to declare stock dividends by this or other
corporations, the opinion says
'"Ordinarily the law requires that addition.il stock to be issued by a
corporation shall be paid for. This power of disposition the directors
:

«
»
*
are to Uf^e in trust.
"The terms.ot the agreement of January 19, 1831, do not provide or
was
provision maite in any other way, that the discontemplate, nor
tribution of the new shares among the compjvny's own shareholders
should be made upon equivalent value being returned or promised to be
returned by the shareholders, nor, indeed, unon any new value to the
company. The agreement is sought to be upheld upon the theory that
the shares to be distributed represent the company's investmenis of
earnings in the purcli.ase, construction and equipment of additional
lines, wires and general plant since the 1st of July, 1806, and that as
these earnings are or were due to. or should ]i:ive been divided among,
the shareholders, an accej)tauoe ot a stock that represents them will be
a release by the sh.areholders of tl'c earnings, and is the same in effect
as if there had been a seve; ance of the eai'uings from the other property
of the corporation and a delivery of the sharehuldcrs and a return to the
company in the shape ol' capital. This theory would, upon the facts of this
ea.se, be open to no objection so long as the scheme involved in it has tlie
requisite sanction of a cert.iln proportion of shareholders if there were no
statutory obstacle to it.
But in its advocacy the respondents arc confronted with the following statute '-It thi.U not be lawful forthe directors or managers of any jncorpor.ited company in tills State to make
dividends excepting from the surplus profits arising from the business ot
such corporation; and it sliallnot be lawful for the directors of any sncll
company to divide, withdraw or in any way pay to the shareholders, or
any of them, any part ot the capital siot-k of such company, or to reduce
the said capital stock without the cont-cut of the Legislature."
"It seems too clear for argument that in the face of that statute the
is.sue of the stock to the shareholders of the Western Union Company
cannot be upheld as a dividend from surplus profits, because the profits
were no longer on hand. They were converted into other property.
Even if such other property remained and still is of equal value it nevertheless took the place of luoflts. It became capital.
:

The general

conclusions of the court are as follows
The power of the We-stern Union Company to create and issue, under
the provisions of chavter568 of the laws of 1870, to the American.
Union and Atlantic & Pacific companies stock in payment for their
lines, cannot be well disputed. But that does not touch tue question
:

"

whether the agi'eement of .Tan. 19, 18SI. as a whtde, .and when all the
olijects aud purposes to be accomplished by it are considered, is not in
other es.sential particulars iu exoesa ot the authority conferred by the
statute, nor the question concerning the legality or illegality of the
proposed division of shares among the shareholders of the Western
UniouCompany." • * * * " Conseqiiently, when the Western Union
Company attempted to di.stribnte that part of its capital stock among^
its own stockholders, without any new coneideration, the attempt
involved a division, withdrawal, and payment ot part of the capital
st ick without the consent of the Legislature, and w lihin the prohibition
»
.
.
.
of the statute."
" From the foregoing it will be seen that, notwithstanding the most
liberal interpretation of the facts, and the mo.st liiieral construction ot
the statutes in relation to the incorporation and regulation of telegrapti
companies, and the many assumplions made in favor of the We«tera
Union Companj', and the most rigid re-strietion of the standing of the
pl.aintiff in court, enough is left of plaiutifTs case to call for the interposition of the court on grounds affecting public interc«ts.'' • * * "The
Plaintiff h.as demonstrated that the proposed gratuitous division of
il5,526.590 of stock among the shareholders of the Western Union Company is wholly illegal. No action »n thep.artot directors or stockholders
or both combined, could overcome this difficulty, and as the illegality
complained of entered into and permeated the agreement of January 19,
1831— inasmuch as by its teims the capital .stock of the Western Union
'Company was to be first diluted to the extent of the proposed gratuitous
issue, aud payment for the property rights and franchises of the vendor
companies to be made in the stock thus depreciated— the agreement
itself cannot be sustained. The action was properly brought by the
plaintiff as a shareholder in the Western Union Coiui)any, on behalf of
himself find all other shareholders of that company similarly
and
situated,
though
the
matters
complained of
he
in
may represent only a comparatively insigniflcant minority, ho
has nevertheless a sutfleient interest and standing to make
it is the duty ot the court, for reasons afteoling public iuteiests, to entertain his complaint, and upon the proofs given in support thereof to
grant appropriate relief. The dismiss.il of the complaint, therefore,
constituted error. As tne case stood, planititf was .at least enlitlcd to an
ailjudicaiion declaring the illegaUty of the agreement <if January 19.
1831, and enjoining the distribution of the $15,520,590 of stock. How
much further relief should have been granted, if any, especially in view
of the far-reaching provisions of the statute that h.as been violated, it is
not necessary to express .an opinion upon. Thj't is a question which
may be best left to be determined on a new lii;il. Of coui'se. the fact
that at the time of the commencement of the action the agreement had
been partiallj' executed, and that since the erroneous dismissal of the

some further

from the low prices already made. There was, on
Saturday evening, an effort towards a reaction, based on tUe
The
statistical position as presented in the last Chronici.e.
fact that the out-turn of the crop for the first two months of
the season was about 70,000 bales less than for corresponding period last season, and that at the same time the visible
supply of American cotton was about 367,500 bales smaller
than at the end of Oct., 18S1, caused some buying for the rise,
as well as a demand to cover contracts, but there was a further
decline on Mondaj'. Tuesday was a holiday. Wednesday opened
firmer on the better accounts from Liverpool but values soon
yielded, for the want of support. December and January were
notably weak under large sales for Southern account. On
Thursday prices again gave way, but there was a sliglit
recovery at the close and a steadier feeling. To-day tliere was
an early advance on a better Liverpool report, stimulating a
demand t» cover contr.icts, but as the inquiry on this account
subsided prices partially receded. Spots declined 1-lGe. on
Wednesday without leading to any marked revival of demand,
whetlxer for export or homo consumption. To-day the market
was quiet and unchanged, middling uolands closing at

than another at the eipen.se of the interior stocks. We reach
therefore, a safer concfuHion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Houthem consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

Ihdu Cotton Movkxkst from all Ports. We have during
the past year been endeavoring to rearrange our India service
so as to make our reports more detailed and at the same time
more accurate. Hitherto we have found it impossible to keep
out of our figures, as cabled to us for the ports other than
Bombay, cargoes which proved only to be shipments from one
India port to another. The plan we have now adopted, as we
have reason to believe, will relieve us from the danger of this
inaccuracy and keep the totals correct.

but generally speaking the quality so far is
particularly Mansiirat. Cotton from Zagazig is
rather disappointing. All the leading firms agree that the
plant has suffered from insufficient irrigation and by worms,
and there is hardly any putting forward estimates of more than
2M million cantars as the result of this year's crop."
Jdte Butts, Backsino, &c. There are no special features to
note in the bagging market, and business shows no increase;
orders continue to be for small lots only, as under present conditions buyers are not disposed to take more than required for
present wants. Prices under the competition of makers continue to rule in buyers' favor, and at the close the asking rates
are 7Mc. for lU lbs., 7^c. for IM 1 bs., 8Mc. for 2 lbs. and

OOMPAKATIVB PoST RBSEIPra AND DaILY CrOP MOVEMENT.
A comparison of the port movement by weeks is not accurate
as the weeks in different years do not end on the same day of
the month. We have c jnieqaently added to our other standing
tables a daily and monthly stat.-ment, that the reader may
constantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative
movement for the years named. The movement each month
since September 1, 1882, has been as follows.

This statement shows that up to Oct. 31 the receipts at the
ports this year were 24,26S bales more than in 1881 and
119,556 bales less than at the same time in 1880. By adding
to the above totals to Oct. 31 the daily receipts since that time
we shall be able to reach an exact comparison of the movement
for the different years.
