gain advantage for themselves by catering to the popular prejudice, and they vied with each other in their

years.
For instance, the Chicago & Eastern Illinois Tout
In the Northwest 8 roads out of 22 show losses, inhas a gain of $75,386, the Columbus Hocking Valley
cluding the St. Paul, the Rock Island, the "Soo"
& Toledo a gain of $74,736 and the Buffalo Rochester
& Pittsburg a gain of $50,450. These are all coal Road, the Minneapolis & St. Louis, the St. Paul &
roads.
At least two of them suffered from strikes last Duluth, the Cedar Falls & Minnesota and the
year, and all three had losses then, so that the present
gains follow in part from that circumstance.

Grouping the roads, we find in the group composed of
the trunk lines and Middle Western roads quite a good
many heavy decreases. We have already alluded to the
New York Central, the Grand Trunk and the Wabash,
and the Ohio & Mississippi also reports a falling off.
These roads had large gains last year, and they doubtless suffered the present year from the low rates on
grain and dressed beef, and also from a smaller grain
movement. There are 17 roads altogether in the
Middle Western group which fall behind in their earnings,
but on the other hand there are no less than 37 which
report gains, including the Chicago

[From our own correspondent.]

London, Saturday, November 1, 1890.
Although apprehension is widespread in the city and the
took markets are extremely depressed and agitated, the disount market remains quiet. In the open market indeed, up
to Thursday the discount rate was hardly better than 4,58 per
cent, but yesterday it hardened to nearly 4^ per cent.
Billbrokers have been able to borrow during the week at from 3
to 4}^ per cent. The belief is now very general here that gold
will not be withdrawn for Germany. According to the last
two returns issued by the Imperial Bank of Germany, that
institution within little more than a fortnight has increased
its stock of gold by nearly 3,000,000 sterling and has contracted
its note circuIatioQ by nearly 4,000,000 sterling.
Its position,
therefore, is very greatly improved. Gold has come from St.
Petersburg and Paris, and it seems to be expected that further supplies will be received from those two cities. For the

was found to be a very large bear speculation, some of the
stocks being actually scarce, and there is also a considerable
bear speculation in American railroad securities and in British

railway stocks.
While the settlement was going on no failures were announced, but late on Wednesday evening the cheques of four
members were returned. One of those was declared a defaulter next morning and another yesterday, but it is hoped
that the accounts of the other two will be arranged. Another
unpleasant feature was the suspension of a broker, who has

done a large business, on the grourd of breach of faith with
one of his clients. The suspension has to be confirmed on
Monday, and the name, therefore, has not been published.
Although the settlement passed over so much more smoothly
than was expected, alarm sprang up again on Wednesday after

of all kinds, but chiefly American, of the

nominal value of al'out five millions sterling. Some of the great
financial houses and a large number of brokers combined together to take over those stocks, but it is in turn re]x>rted, denied, and again reported, that the weaker brokers got alarmed,
and Instead of carrying the stocks sold largely. Though the
report was not true, fresh forced sales caused fresh alarm, and
disquieting rumors Ix'came as plentiful as ever.
Most of those rumors are believed to be either quite unfoundetl or greatly exaggerated, but it would be useless to
deny that there are real and very serious difficulties. And the
end of the liquidation has not yet been reached. The general
uneasiness was increased by a telegram from New York to the
effect that Mr. Windom in his annual report will recommend
legislation hostile to the Canadian railways passing through

believe the report, it seems incredible that Congress will adopt
such a policy
yet the telegrams created some alarm, and
heavy selling resulted, bringing on a serious drop in Canadian
railway securities. American railroad securities have suffered
very heavily likewise. There has been also a break in home
railway stocks, but the decline iu securities dealt in upon the
Paris Bourse has been much less than could have been expected. It is true that those securities are not held to any
considerable extent in this country, but there is great weakness in Berlin, and it was thought that the break in London,
with the weakness iu Berlin, would lead to a heavy fall. As
yet, however, the Paris Bourse has been able to prevent that.
Dr. Plaza, the delegate of the Argentine Grovemment, has
arrived in London, and opened communications with the
great financial houses. It is understood that the main object
he has in view is to arrive at an arrangement which will allow
the Argentine Government to assume the debts of the provinces which are insolvent, the Government taking over all the
assets acquired by the provincial governments by means of
the loans. Further, he desires to arrive at a friendly conversion of the provincial Cedulas, which somewhat exceed in
nominal value 300 millions of dollars.
The idea is to convert
the Cedulas into gold bonds bearing a low rate of interest.
Lastly, he is prepared to take back the Buenos Ayres waterworks from the company formed here, but never really floated.
The opinion that trade is somewhat falling off is gaining
ground. The McKinley Act, the crisis in South America and
South Africa, and the disorganization of trade in silver-using
cotintries, it is feared will have a bad effect upon it.
So, also,
it is thought, will the heavy losses on the Stock Exchange
during the past few months and the labor disputes, which
are extending and becoming serious every day, are likely to
disturb all branches of trade.
The wheat market is firm, but with little change.

not generally known till after business hours. The failure of

Railroad and Miscellanoons Stooks.—The stock market
the past week has been very active, and at times much excited,
call money having ruled for a short period as high as
J^ per
cent a day plus 6 jier cent interest. The decline in bank reserves shown by the bank statement of November 8 caused
weakness and lower prices on Saturday, and on Monday fears
of a panic both here and in London were freely expressed.
There was a scramble to dispose of stocks, and large amounts
were sold at a heavy sacrifice.
The death on the floor of the
Exchange of Mr. Struthers. an old member of the Board, resulted in an adjournment for half an hour and gave time for
dealers to collect their senses, and when business was resumed a better feeling prevailed.
On Tuesday the advices from London were encouraging, and
the tone of the general market was stronger, prices advancing.
Then the Villard securities were pressed for sale in large
amounts, producing sympathetic weakness in other stocks.
It came to light that several firms were embarrassed, and chief
among them the tirm acknowledged to be Mr. Villard's representatives, who had pledged enormous amounts of Northern
Pacific and other stocks as collateral, and these had to be sold.
After a substantial rally by the market as a whole there wa»
a reaction yesterday, and to-day a number of stocks were decidedly weak, Lackawanna dropping from 136 to 181,7^ at the
close.
Pacific Mail also declined to 31}^, but closed at 32?^.
North American closed last Friday at 31 J ^, on Tuesday ife
fell to 17}^, and on Thursday rumors that the company was
in financial straits in consequence of the failure of Mr.
Villard's brokers sent the price as low as 7, closing at 11 Jg.
over 118,000 shares being sold on that day alone. The price at
the close to-day was 11}^. Northern Pacific common and
preferred tumbled from 26f^ and 70)^ respectively last Friday
to 16?^ and 55. To-day they have been weak closing at 30i^
and 57J^ respectively. Edison General Electric, another of the
Villard group, dropped from 90J^ to 65, and closes to-day at
841^. Toledo Ann Arbor & North Micliigan also being suddenly thrown on the market, as a consequence of a broker's
failure, the price fell from 33?.^ last Friday to 12, closing at H^i
to-day. Pullman dropped to 168 from 195 last Friday ana
closes at 184J^.
Union Pacific was strong, rising from
44 J^ last Friday to 49, but closing to-day at 45':;^. Rejiort has
it that Mr. Jay Gould lias purchased a large interest and that
some change in management will take i)lace. Reading w-as
down to 37>'.^ on Monday, but to-day tho last sale was at 30,
against 32J^ last week.
The unlistetl department has been in the background this

there is a disposition to await their report. Dealings in Sugar
have been moderate in amount, the price, however, fluctuating considerably. From 57J^ a week since it has been down

North American Company.

— This corporation

was formed

to take over the assets of the Oregon Trans-Continental Co.,
which it did on Aug. 18, 1890, issuing then in the statement to
the New York Stock Exchange the exhibit of assets below
given.
On Tuesday the following notice was sent out:
"New York. Nov. 11, 1R90.
"Gentlemen; You are requested to attend a meeting of the creditors
ot this company at 10 o'clock to-morrow morning. The company la
solvent, but owing to the stringency of the money market and other
disturbing circumstances, it may be necessary to ask your indulgence.
"EespeettuUy yours, Colgate Hoyt, Vice-President."
Nearly all the creditors of the company responded to this invitation at the meeting held on Wednesday, and it was decided that the interests of all the creditors would be protected
if the entire matter were placed in the hands of a committee.
That committee was appointed, consisting of R. G. Rolston,
President of the Farmers' Loan
Trust Company; C. H.
Coster of Drexel, Morgan
Co. William Salomon of Speyer
Co. and also representing the Deutsche Banke of Berlin;
William Rockefeller, and Jacob Schiff of Kuhn, Loeb
Co.
The following was sent out on Thursday through the news
agencies:
statement having appeared in the public prints that the
committee appointed at a meeting of the creditors of the
North American Company were appointed with authority to
liquidate the said company, I desire, as the chairman of that
committee, to state that the meeting was a meeting solely of
the creditors of the North American Company, called at the
instance of that company for the purpose of preventing the
forcing of the securities held by the creditors as collateral for
their loans for sale upon the market. And the said committee
was appointed solely for the purpose of protecting their own
interests, and in no wise for the purpose of liquidating the
affairs of the North American Company.
It will at once he
seen that the appointment of the comniittee for stich purposes
was not only in the interest of those holding the obligations
of the company, but also largely for the benefit of the North
American stockholders.
This course prevents any sacrifice of the collaterals held as
security for the loans mad'' by the North American Co.
R. G. Rolston, Chairman of the Committee.

it was stated that the nature of the chaafce of
motive i>ower had been the subject of careful >.tudy. The duplex cable
system was unanimously declared the most reliable and satisfactory
motive [M)wer. We met with an adverse decision of the Court of Appeals In not granting us the right of changing our motive |>ower. The
General Term rendered a decision adverse to the report of the Kallroad
Commi8.sioners in our favor. The Court of Appeals, however, upon a
new phtt.ie of the case heing presented, rendered a favoralile decision
for us. The last Legislature passed a law referring such matters to
tho Railroad Commissioners, and upon this act we secured the right to
change our motive power.
The business of the year has been indeed gratifying. Last rear's
business, 1889, over 188s, shows an increase in receipts of 9181,981 14. This year over last shows an Increase of $97.014 88, mining
a total for the two years of $278,996 02. or 5.579.920 pussentrers.
We fully expect to have our cable road in operation by Oct. 1, 1891.

The net receipts of the St. Paul Minneapolis & Manitoba
Railway Land Department for the past fiscal year were §303,387 75; out of these, land grant bonds of that company to the
aggregate amount of $300,000 00, principal, were redeemed.
Pursuant to the conditions of the lease and agreement with
the St. Paul Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway Company, the
collateral trust bonds of that company, amounting to $8,000,000 00 principal, were paid and canceled during the fiscal year.
As provided in the lease to tliis Company, the St. Paul Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway Company will buUd its line to
the Pacific Coast, on Puget Sound, a distance of about 800
miles. To furnish the funds for this extension the St. Paul
Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway Company has executed its
mortgage to the Central Trust Company of New York to secure the payment of the principal and interest of its sterling
bonds to the amount of £6,000,000, bearing interest at four per
cent per annum; the payment of the principal and interest of
the same being guaranteed by your Company. Subscriptions
have been made for the first £3,000,000 of this issue, the entire
proceeds of such subscription being now in hand and available for the prosecution of the work.
It is expected that this extension will be completed to Puget
Sound, at or near Seattle, Washington, prior to Jan. 1, 1893.
A large portion of the Pacific Extension has already been
located, leaving the existing Montana Extension line near
Fort Assinniboine, Montana, and running thence westward
on as direct a course as possible.
An extremely favorable pass over the main range of the RockyMountains has been found for this line, ]>ermitting a maximum grade on the eastern approach of 53-8 feet per mile, no
tunnel being necessary. The descent on the western slope
will also be favorable, both as regards grade and curvature.
When this extension has been completed your Company will
have a continuous rail line from Lake Superior, St. Paul and
Minneapolis to the Pacific Coast shorter than any existing
trans-Continental railway, and with lower grades and less
curvature. Its cost and capitalization will also be much less
than those of any other line to the coast. It is expected that,
with the foregoing favorable conditions, the heavier products
of the Pacific Coast region, which up to this time could seek
markets only by ocean routes, can be moved eastward to the

futures was stronger early in the week, but to-day was almost
panicky. Lard on the spot closed at 5-90c. for prime city,

prompted mainly by the belief that unsettled rates
of exchange and dissatisfaction of planters with prices will
curtaU the crop movement for some time to come. To-day
Liverpool disappointed our bulls, and the whole market declined.
Cotton on the spot was steady and became more
active on Tuesday. The demand was mainly for home consumption. To-day the market was quiet and barely steady at
9^c. for middling uplands.

This led not only to the covering of contracts, but
to some buying for the rise. But on Monday the report for
November from the Department of Agriculture was made
public. It was immediately construed from its estimate of
an outturn of 187 pounds to the acre as indicating a crop of
8,000,000 bales or more. A subsequent explanation from the
Statistician of the Department, saying that the outturn per
acre this season is not estimated at any more than the outturn last season, led to a reduction of crop estimates as low as
7,450,000 or 7,50<),OOO bales, and caused some advance here
and at Liverpool. But the disturbed state of financial circles
on the Stock Exchange caused a quick decline. On Wednesday there was an irregular opening, the early months being
cheaper and the later months dearer, but all almost immediately advanced, with indications of liberal buying for the rise,
as well as covering of contracts. But the bull movement
showed very little strength on Thursday morning. Later on,
however, there was a buoyant market, on a demand to cover

THE CHRONICLE.

BREADSTUFF S.

IhuipU ot—

Fkidat. November 14, 1890.
The markpts for flour and meal have been quite unsettled
in the past few days, in sympathy with the downward course
of cereals, and to-day became wholly demoralized. No reliable figures could be had on which to base quotations. Those
given Delow must be regarded as nominal, with reductions of
10® 35 cts. per bbl. necessary to effect sales with any freedom.
The wheat market made some show of firmness at times
early in the week, but latterly has declined rapidly. The
movement of the crop in the Northwest showed a materially
increased amount, and the money market became so stringent aa to cause forced sales to be made. To-day the market
was at one time almost panicky, but there was some recovery
on a demand to close up "short" contracts. The lower prices
have led to a material increase in purchases for export, and
the sales to-day for shipment reached 98,000 bushels, including No. 2 Turkish red at 97i^(a99c.

some recovery in wheat and corn.

:

;

bushels; buckwheat, 14'5 bushels; hay, 1-20 tons; tobacco, 713
pounds.
The com crop malces the smallest yield reported, excepting only that
ot 1881, which was 18-6 bushels. Tliat ol 1887 was 20'1 bushels. It
Is 83 per cent ot ihe average tf the last ten years, a period which included four unusually poor years, and only 73 percent of last year's
crop. The Indications of recent returns have been so uniform that the
estimate lor permanent record will not be likely to change this tigure
unless by a slight fraction. The decline of the last decade Is not due to
impairment ot fertility, but to unfavorable meteorological Influences.
The highest rates are in New Eogland. as usual; New York averages
25-3; Feunsylvania. 27-5; Ohio. 20-7; Michigan, 26-7; Indiana, 21-3;
IMlnois, 25; Iowa, 26; Missouri, 25-8; Kansas, 11-3; Nebraska, 20-3.
The principal decline is In the corn surplus States.
The average rate of yield of potatoes is 87-5 Oushels. The condition
of the crop in October was lower than in any reported previous crop,
except in 1887, being 61-7, against 61-5, when tlie rates of yield was
56"9 bushels per acre. It imports scarcity and warraats high prices.
The low rates ol yield ol piiucipal States are as follows: New York, 62
bushels;! Pennsyivania. 68; Micliigan, 58; Ohio, 46; Indiana, 37; Illinois. 30; Iowa, 18; Mitsomi. 39; Kansas. 98; Nebraska, 27; Minnesota,
68; Maine reports 95; New Hampshire, 90, and Vermont, 95.
The yields ol the hay crop are large, as a rule, throughout the
country.
The cane sugar rop will be a large one, and sugar beets have done
well west of the Missouri, indicating a probably rapid development of
the sugar Industry.

Indian corn has also made an important decline, and the
speculation to-day was for a time in a semi-panic. There is
no improvement in crop accounts nor any change in kgitimate influences, but the stringent money markets were allpowerful in depressing values. The lower prices on the spot
greatly stimulated business, and shippers took 200,000
bushels No. 3 mixed at 58@59%c. afloat and for early arrival.

for dry goods has presented few nnw features
of noteworthy interest during the week under review.
Business was more quiet than otherwise in the wholesale branches
of the trade. The weather was uoseasonably mild, and therefore unfavorable for the distribution of heavy fall and winter
fabrics, and transactions in this relation were comparatively
light.
The demand for spring and summer goods at first
hands was considerably below tae average of preceding weeks,
many of the larger buyers having already placed their early
orders, while operations on the part of others were doubtless
deterred to some extent by the stringency of the moaey marAs a whole, the jobbing trade was quiet, but " jobs " in

Domestic Woolen Goods. The comcnission houaes continued to make liberal deliveries of men's-wear woolens in

Heavy wool and worsted suitings were in fair request, but
desirable makes are in meagre supply, and transactions were
therefore restricted in volume. Heavy overcoatings were
rather more active in some quarters, very fair orders for low
