The full detail of clearings for the week covered by the
above statement will be given next Saturday. W e cannot,
ef course, furnish them to-day, bank clearings being made
up by the various clearing houses at noon on Saturday, and
hence in the above the last twenty-four hours of the week
ha ve to be in all cases estimated, as we go to press Friday night.
We present below our usual detailed figures for the pre
vious week, covering the returns for the period ending with
Saturday noon, November 14, and the results for the correspond
ing week in 1893, 1894 and 1893 are also given. Contrasted
with the preceding week there is an increase in the aggregate
exchanges of a little over one hundred and fifty million dol
lars, but at New York alone the gain is one hundred and seven
teen millions, tn comparison with the week of 1895 the total
for the whole country shows an excess of 3-2 per cent. Com
pared with the week of 1894 the current returns record a
gain of lrt-3 per cent and the excess over 1893 is 22-2 per cent.
Outside of New York the decline from 1895 is 7’7 per cent.
The increase over 1894 reaches 3'3 per cent, and making com
parison with 1893 the gain is seen to be 8’ 1 per cent.

THE CHRONICLE.

THE
F IN A N C IA L
S IT U A TIO N .
Reassuring features of the week have been (1) the
foreign trade statement for October, upon which we
have remarked in a subsequent colum 1 ; (2) the pros
pect of a continuance of favorable trade results in
near-by months, ensuring the non-fulfillment of the
London forecast that the ante-election gold imports
would be returned to Europe immediately after the
election and making a further movement of gold t )
this center not improbable; (3) the Treasury net gold
reserve, which has shown steady gains, reaching, ac
cording to the Government report made public yester
day, $126,611,711; (4) the large stock of gold coin and
bullion held in the country, being to-day probably not
less than $679,000,000, a total larger than has been
held at any time since May 1892, four and a-half years
ago; (5) the trade revival which, to the extent of
opening mills etc. theretofore closed, and increasing
work in other establishments already operating in part,
has now extended to every section of the country, in
cluding up to this date (according to the record kept
by the “ Journal of Commerce and Commercial Bul
letin”), 383 resumptions and 291 establishments which
have increased their force ; and (6) the higher prices
ruling for wheat and the better prices ruling foj; other
food products.
But while we may say with accuracy that the fore
going and all other developments since the election to
this date have been favorable and promising, we must
add that the expectation which many appear to indulge
of an immediate boom which is to keep our furnaces
and factories running night and day and all prices
constantly rising, is quite certain not to be realized.
At any season of the year a healthy industrial reviv d
from extreme depression and the wide interruption of
work, such as has existed during the summer, must
progress slowly step by step; and this is especially true
when the recovery begins at the opening of winter.
Never could a recuperative movement start under
better auspices than now; it is sure to make progress,
and as we get towards the spring an accelerating prog
ress. The thought of prospective tariff revision has
tended in some measure to check demand. It is a
foolish notion, however, for revision, if it is carried
through, will be up, not d)wn; that is it will tend to
advance prices, not lower them, and consequently the
larger the stock of goods a merchant carried in passing
from a low to a higher tariff the better off he would be.
Some disappointment has been felt with regard to the
inquiry for goods. But the explanation is really very
smple. The idea of an immediate heavy increase in
requirements was based to some extent upon a miscon
ception. It was based on the supposition that as
a result of the extreme depression which ruled
from July to November, interior stocks of goods
had become exhausted. But as a matter of fact, while
it is true that the interior merchant stopped buying, it
is equally true that the interior consumer also stopped
buying, thus leaving stocks pretty much as they were
Of course with the revival in business which is now
in progress, these stocks will be quickly disposed of, and
thereafter the demand should be steady and regular,
widening and developing with the expansion in trade.
The Seaboard Air Line “ deal” appears to have fallen
through—at least for the present—the parties with
whom Mr. Ryan was negotiating for a controlling in
terest in the property having found it impossible to
turn over the stock of the road as promised. The only
[V ol . L5I11.
interest tne public has had in the matter nas been as tothe effect of the expected change of ownership upon
the rate situation in the South. The Seaboard
Line during the summer pursued a sort of
guerilla warfare, which, while directed only against
the Southern Railway, threatened to involve all the
roads in the South. The courts interfered a number
of times and checked a wholesale slaughter of rates and
revenues, but this was considered a poor reliance at the
best and objectionable in many ways. Hence when the
announcement came that a new interest wa3 to acquire
control the event was hailed with considerable satis
faction as furnishing a feasible way out of the
difficulty and as marking a step tending to conserve
important interests. But the plan met with con
siderable opposition.
President Hoffman’s friends
opposed it, and the Southern public also looked upon it
with disfavor because of reports that the Southern
Railway was the party back of Mr. Ryan. These
rumors met with explicit and emphatic denials, but
they kept cropping up again and again. In one sense
therefore it may be best that the scheme has failed.
Of course all depends upon what attitude the man
agement may now assume. Mr. Ryan, through
the purchases of stock which he has made from
parties outside the pool, has acquired a very sub
stantial interest in the property, and this should give
him some say in the management. Very likely,
too, wiser counsel may prevail with the managers, and
the old tactics of cutting rates be abandoned. Recent
statements of earnings show that the property is doing
quite well, a gain being reported for the September
quarter of $152,450 in gross and of $113,438 in net.
The effects of the revival of confidence and the
starting up of trade are already beginning to be re
flected in the returns of bank clearings. The number
of cities showing gains is steadily increasing. Last
week out of the seven leading cities included in our
telegraphic returns (namely Boston, Philadelphia, Bal
timore, Chicago, St. Louis and New Orleans, besides
New York), three reported gains, namely New York,
Boston and Baltimore; this week there are four with gains,
only Chicago, Philadelphia and New Orleans recording
decreases. In the case of railroad earning3 the manifes
tation of the revival in trade will come more slowly.
This should be borne in mind in considering current
returns of earnings. For the present these returns are
very poor, but they represent past conditions. We re
ferred last week to the large falling off indicated for
the first week of November by our preliminary sum
mary for that week. The final statement makes even a
worse showing, the loss reaching $1,333,633, or 16-74 per
cent on the 77 roads included in the tabulations. The
result was particularly bad because of the occurrence of
election day in that week. The returns of net earn
ings for October, which are now beginning to come in,
are also subject to the remark that they represent past
conditions. Thus the Pittsburg Cincinnati Chicago &
St. Louis reports $339,585 decrease in gross and $189,468 decrease in net, and the Pittsburg Youngstown &
Ashtabula, $77,214 decrease in gross and $64,249 de
crease in net. The following is a four-year comparison
of gross and net for a number of roads which have
this week submitted statements for either September
or October.

steady in the afternoon, and no change was made in
the rates for actual business. On Wednesday the range
for nominal rates was 4 82J@4 83 for sixty-day and
4 8G@4 864 for sight, and the tone was firmer. Rates
for actual business closed at an advance of onequarter of a cent for long and short, at 4 81£@4 82

rates was 4 82£@4 83 for sixty day and 4 86@

tained the higaer figures and the market was strong,
influenced chiefly by a demand for long sterling

time met the views of borrowers early in the week by
offering money at 4^ to 5 per cent for ninety days to

Some writers have had difficulty in accounting for
higher rates for foreign exchange following the elec
tion. That movement has been wholly natural. Gold
imports considerably in excess of tn d e requirements
had been stimulated by a substantial premium to
satisfy the hoarding disposition, and to such an extent
that London fully expected a return of the metal as
soon as the 3d of November had pissel. A return
would have set in had not our foreign trade continued
so decidedly in our favor. As it was, instead of a
reversal of the gold movement, merely a stronger
exchange market was the outcome. Now at length
even the advancing inclination appears to have
about spent itself, rates having again given evi
dence of a declining tendency, though as the week
closes a firmer tone has been noticeable, due to a tempor
ary special demand for investment.
The truth is, the market’s surroundings include a
condition of our trade with the outside world so favor
able that the large imports of gold referred to must,
we may assume, by this time have been substan
tially covered; moreover the current exports of
merchandise will soon, it would seem, produce
another trade balance which will have to be
settled for with a further movement of that metal or
of capital. What the extent i3 of the merchandise
exports now in progress may be gathered from the out
flow in October and previous months of 1896 just made
public by the Bureau of Statistics. It appears that the
total in October reached $113,385,497, which, accord
ing to our record going back to 1873, is the largest
(with the single exception of December 1891, when it
was $119,935,897) reported for any previous month
within the period mentioned. Again the imports of mer
chandise were also during October phenomenally small,

beiDg $50,373,675, so that the merchandise balance in
favor of the United States for that single month was $63,011,822, which the record we keep shows is the largest
merchandise balance in favor of the United States in any
month since 1873, making the favorable balance for the
first four months of the current fiscal year (July 1 to
October 31) $132,028,000, also ths largest in our tables
for the same four months. Finally, if we carry the
compilation back to January 1 1896 the merchandise
balance will be found to be the largest for the ten
months ending with October 31 1896 (when it was
$206,985,482) that it has been for the same ten
months of any calendar year since 1878, and with that
exception probably larger than it has ever been. I t is
in point also to add that this feature of our trade is
not only continuing in November, but is, we are led to
believe, progressing in even greater volume, if the
New York City movement for the two weeks ending
with the 14th instant is a correct indication.*
Situated as this country is with reference to its cur
rency and its incipient business revival, these facts are
highly important and gratifying. We must remember
though that they, of course, do not represent a permai ent or a wholly normal or a strictly healthy condition.
The net balance, so far as the small imports enter into
the calculation, is evidence of the intense strain and
struggle we have passed through, and is a curative state
which that strain has produced; the exports also no doubt
have been in some measure added to by reason of the
curtailed home consumption of our products and the
consequent depression in prices. Chiefly however
the increase in the exports is known to be a result
of our large crops and of the special foreign de
mand for our food products. Altogether, regardless
rf how the favorable balance has been secured, that
balance is, as we have already said, highly important and
gratifying. It is so because for the time being it
imparts peculiar strength to our financial situation and
gives us the opportunity to rectify the evils from which
we have been suffering for three years so acutely, and
to some extent ever since we resume 1 gold payments.
What we need now more than all things else is a period
free from these harassing influences and of long enough
duration to model a sound currency system for the
country. Just that our trade conditions are to day
offering us.
Shall we improve the opportunity ? This question,
according to our view, concerns tbe matter of most
serious import of all the issues which are at present be
fore the people, or have been before tie people for
many a year. Not only does the trade condition make

THE CHRONICLE.
an effort at this moment timely, but otherwise we are in
excellent shape to improve the occasion that favor
able balance evokes. The thought we have in mind
has been embodied in a toast at the Chamber of
Commerce dinner Tuesday night, to which Mr. Boa>ke
Cockran so eloquently responded. That toast read that
“ The forces of patriotism must not disband while a
patriotic duty remains to bs performed.” Mr. Cockran
gave the suggestion his earnest approval, and in some
measure sought to show how the different elements
which combined for Major McKinley’s election “ could
be welded into one co-operative harmonious force for
the success of his Administration.” He asked, “ How
are the fruits of this great victory to be harvested, if I
may use the words which have been uttered by the dis
tinguished Postmaster General ? Can we afford to
disband the forces of order while the forces of disorder
are still in the field, being marshalled by their defeated
leader for a new assault upon credit and upon indus
try ? Can we afford the luxury of political divisions
as to the administration of the Government when the
existence of the Government is imperilled ? Can we
afford to quarrel about systems of laws while the moral
law itself remains a feature in American politics ? I
believe it is the duty of all the men who contributed to
win this victory to contribute now to the harvesting of
its fruits.”
Can any one object to such a sentiment as that ?
But Mr. Cockran went farther, and we trust he will
carry with him the large body of independent voters
that helped to win the victory on the 3d of November.
He expressed the opinion that the proper course for
every one to pursue was to strengthen the hands of the
President-elect in any financial policy he may adopt.
"Unless we put full power into his hands, we cannot
impose full responsibility upon his shoulders.” Coming
to specific acts, he said we are “ confronted with the
necessity of raising revenue at the very threshold of
this Administration. Shall we show to the world the
spectacle of a government compelled to borrow money
for its daily expanses while it rules and administers the
business of the richest and most powerful people
in the world ? • • * That question mast be met,
and for mv part I am ready to concede the right of the
majority to fix the means by which it shall be met. I
would deplore as the greatest disaster that could over
take this country the spectacle of the President of the
United States elected on a platform of sound money
forced to bargain with the silver Senators for the pass
ing of the legislation necessary to support the Govern
ment of the United States. * * * Let him be given
the needed powers without any conditions whatever
except the responsibility which he owes to the people,
who will judge his Administration at its close by the
fruits which it shall have borne.”
Mr. Cockran also throws out another suggestion,
although he does it with hesitation and with appar
ent misgivings; and yet while he fears it i3 likely to b3
rejected, he expresses the hope that it will serve to
"scatter seed which will flower in substantial fruit.”
His idea is that evea the tariff issue sbouli be compro
mised to pave the way for a union on the financial
legislation which is needed. With the tariff issue
settled in a spirit “ of compromise and amity, the one
issue which tnreatens to split the successful triumph
ant force into factions would pas3 from the region of
practical politics, and together, as a united, irresistible
body, we could address ourselves to the problems of the
currency and to those problems of social discontent to
901
which my friend the Postmaster General has so elo
quently alluded.”
Coming back then to the thought with which we
started, may we not say that the people have to-day
at their command a marvellously favorable opportunity
for settling the currency question in this country for
all time. Our foreign trade invites action. We passed
through in this respect like surroundings in 1878 and
1879, when a similar work was pressing, and they
proved jast the conditions needed at that critical
juncture. Moreover, the gold reserve favors action,
for it is larger now than it has been since
May 1892. According to the Government fig
ures of November 1 1896 the gold coin in the
country was 8624,017,484 and the gold bullion $47,617,328, making a total stock at that date of $671,664,812. Since November 1 the imports of that metal
have been about $5,000,000. Hence, including the
net production, the total stock at the present time
can not be far from $679,000,000. It was reported to
be $680,438,794 on the 31st day of May 1892, nearly
4-£ vears ago, and has been less than it is now according
to the Treasury record every month since that date, and
a large portion of the time very much less. It is reas
suring to know also that if more gold was found neces
sary our trade conditions would enable us to secure
whatever might be needed.
Finally, the existing relation of parties, as Mr.
Cockran said, incites action. For the time being they
stand in unique position ; probably not more than
twice before have they been so nearly at oae on the
controlling issue of the hour. What a chance this situ
ation presents for those who have recently voted
together to make their action so effective in perfecting
financial legislation as to mark a new epsch, may we
not say a new birth, in the life of the nation. It is a
highly critical period. Shall we finish the wirk so
well begun or leave it to plague us again ? SiaU his
tory say of us that we were almost equal to the occa
sion—but not quite ?
THE BALTIMORE & OHIO REPORT.
The Baltimore & Ohio management are to be com
mended for issuing a complete annual report, the same
as usual. It generally happens that where a property
is placed in receivers’ hands, as has been the case
with the Baltimore & Ohio, the reports are for a longer
or shorter period discontinued. The result is that at
the very time when security holders are mo3t in need
of Liie information contained in the reports, they are
left helpless, without anv facts to guide them in their
judgment or action. To say that this is unfortunate
and to be regretted, is to speak mildly. Hence the fact
that in the Baltimore & Ohio case Mr. John K. Cowen
(who is both President of the road and one of its re
ceivers) has pursued a different course deserves more
than a passing notice.
We are glad to see too that the accounts and opera
tions cover the full twelvemonths. Very frequently the
results are divided up, the company reporting for the
period while it was in control and the receivers for the
rest of the term, destroying much of the value of
the statements and sometimes rendering difficult com
parisons with previous yea's In this instance Mr.
Cowen alludes to the fact that the company, having
been unable to meet its liabilities, on March 1 passed
into the hands of receivers, but adds that it has
been deemed proper to continue the regular annual

THE CHRONICLE.
statements, and therefore the report covers the
operations of the entire fiscal year both prior
and subsequent to the receivership—which is
as it should be. We may note, furthermore, that the
stockholders at their annual meeting this week also
authorized the publication of the report of Mr. Stephen
Little, who, as will be remembered, made an examina
tion of the books and accounts of the company imme
diately after the appointment of the receivers. The
report is now being printed, and it is expected will be
ready for distribution within a week or two. Saeurity
holders and the public will thus ba placed in possession
of all the facts in the case.
Until Mr. Little’s rep ort appears it will of course
be impossible to form any definite opinion regarding
it; but those who ought to know say that there will be
some favorable features in it. As we hear, it will
show on the one hand that dividends on the company’s
stock ought not to have been paid, but on the other hand
will also show that the fixed charges were earned in all
the years, according to very strict methods of account
ing. This latter, besides being a welcome, is likewise
an encouraging, fact. A further gratifying feature has
been developing ever since the receivers have been in
control, namely the facility with which it has been
found possible to extend and enlarge the road’s
business. Indeed, the way the gross revenue of
the system has been added to in recent months,
in face of adverse business conditions, has been a very
agreeable surprise. It suggests that while the late
management gave perhaps adequate and possibly undue
attention to other things, it did not avail in full of the
opportunities for developing the road’s traffic. This
discovery of course makes the outlook brighter than
had been thought possible, and opens up new possibili
ties for the future. In view of that fact it does not
seem likely that a plan for the reorganization
of the property is within the probabilities of the early
future. It appears to be everybody’s desire to see what
the property can do under the new conditions and
management, over a fair period of time, before consid
ering plans for its financial rehabilitation. Indeed,
this work cannot be intelligently undertaken until the
capacity of the system for creating and acquiring busi
ness has been fully tested. We should not be surprised
if a whole year were allowed to elapse before an effort
were made to formulate a reorganization plan.
The company’s report is for the fiscal year ending
June 30 last. It shows a surplus of $127,505 above all
charges (amounting to nearly 7^ million dollars) for
the twelve months, though of course not including
dividends on the preferred stocks or payments made to
retire bonded and other indebtedness. That this is, all
things considered, a very s itisfactory showing will ap
pear as we proceed. Of course no one needs to be
told that the latter half of the year, that is the six
months from January to June, covered a period of
great industrial depression throughout the United
States, in which therefore the conditions were decid
edly unfavorable for an ordinarily full volume of traf
fic. But in addition a good many special circum
stances operated to reduce net results on the Balti
more & Ohio. Some of these were only transient,
others permanent in their influence, but all have an
important bearing both as regards the future and as
explaining the changes from the previous year.
As against the $127,505 surplus above charges for
1895-96 the surplus for 1894-95 had been $1,709,681.
This is a falling off of $1,582,176. How is the differ
[v o l .
l x h i.
ence accounted for? The answer to that question will
bring out all the peculiarities in the accounts and re
sults for both years. We find in the first place th a t
there has been an augmentation of $443,211 in the
fixed charges. Before explaining this augmentation
it will be well to point out that the statement
of the fixed charges is a complete account of
everything the company was obligated to pay as
a fixed charge during the twelve months, whether it
was paid or not. The increase of $443,211 over the
year preceding is referable mainly to the fact thatinterest on the Baltimore Bait line mortgage, amount
ing to $300,000, appears in the accounts for the first
time and to the further fact that there was an increase
of $165,563 in interest on floating debt, discounts,.
&o. Interest on receivers’ certificates is given as a
separate item in the fixed charges, and counted for
only $20,000 in the year’s total—said interest having
accrued for only one month.
Besides the heavier requirements for charges it is
found that the “ income from other sources’- fell off as
much as $558,671. Two items explain the bulk of the
decrease. It appears that $320,000 of the previous year s
income under that head was merely a bookkeeping
item, representing the increase of the book value of
certain properties taken in at a profit. Then there
was another exceptional item in that year’s income,
this amounting to $149,000 and representing the profit
derived on the sale of bonds for the payment of the
Baring loan due March 1 1895.
We come now to the most important difference of
all, namely the diminution of $654,777 in the net
earnings from the operation of the road. The signifi
cance of the decrease here lies in the fact that ic has
occurred notwithstanding an increase of $1,127,599 in
gross earnings. In other words, operating expenses
increased in the large sum of $1,782,376 (11 per cent)..
It is this augmentation, therefore, of I f million
dollars in operating expenses that furnishes the
key to the year’s results, Examination of the
accounts shows that $920,488 of the increase isdue to increased cost of maintenance of equipment.
At the time the receivers took control of the
property there were about 5,000 freight cars on side
tracks awaiting repairs and more than 35 per cent of
the freight engines, we are informed, were unable
to move a wheel, and a large proportion of the passenger
engines were in the same condition. When the re
ceivers made application to Court for permission toissue receivers’ certificates they estimated that $1,460,749 would be required to place the equipment in
thoroughly good condition, including $409,851 to equip
cars with air-brakes and automatic couplers to comply
with the acts of Congress. At the same time it was
estimated that $990,000 would be required for new steel
rails, renewals of bridges and for tunnels and masonry.
The larger part of the extra equipment outlays
should have been made in previous years and charged
to the accounts of those years. It is not possible of
course to tell exactly how much of the increased cost
was due to the condition in which the equipment was
found by the receivers and in which it had been left
from preceding years, but we are informed that Mr.
Cowen estimates that the sum exceeds $500,000. We
also hear that the 1896 expenses include $150,000 of
suspended expenses due to the year 1895, the two to
gether amounting to $650,000. It is proper to state
that during the year the company also charged to profit
and loss account $461,409 for equipment put out of:

INTER-STATE COMMERCE COMMISSION
AND RATES TO SOUTHERN POINTS.
The Inter-State Commerce Commission has sustained
another reverse in the courts. The year has been un
usually prolific in important decisions defining and
limiting the powers and functions of the Commission.
d

THE CHROJN1CLE.
The Commission has often complained in its annual
reports, and with reason, of the great delay experi
enced in securing decisions in the courts, as a conse
quence of which cases involving questions of the high
est moment regarding the construction of the InterState law remained tied up, leaving the outcome
in dou
But latterly quite a number of lead
ing issues have been disposed of either in
the lower or [the final courts, and when the Commis
sioners write their next annual report the coming
month they will have a clearer idea of their
position, even if the decisions have been mostly not to
their liking.
Last March the United States Supreme Court de
aided that witnesses cannot shelter themselves behind
the plea that their testimony might incriminate them,
and previously the Court had ruled that the powers
of the courts can be used to enforce the process of the
Commission. The rulings in these casqs of course
tended to strengthen the hands of the Commission.
In April the Court rendered its opinion in the case
of the Cincinnati New Orleans & Texas Pacific vs. the
Inter-State Commission—commonly known as the Social
Circle Case—involving the construction of the long-andshort haul-clause of the Inter-State act, and also gave
an opinion in the case of the Inter-State Commerce
Commission vs. the Texas & Pacific Railway Company,
concerning the right of the railroads to accept a lower
rate upon import traffic shipped on a through bill of
lading from a foreign country than upon domestic
traffic carried over the same road to the same point of
destination.
In the Social Circle case the Court upheld the Com
mission in its contention regarding the long-and-short
haul clause but overruled it in its attempt to prescribe
rates—the latter a point of far-reaching effect and
which has since controlled the actions of the courts in
a great many other decisions. In the import cases the
ruling of the Commission was entirely reversed. In
May Judge Acheson in the United States Circuit
Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, fol
lowing the rule laid down by the Supreme Court in the
Social Circle case, dismissed the petition of the Com
mission in the complaint of Coxe Bros. & Co. against
the Lehigh Valley, where the Commission had sought
to fix rates on anthracite coal. Now the Commission’s
petition regarding rates to Southern points from Chi
cago and Cincinnati has also been dismissed in the
Circuit Court for Ohio.
"While the point at issue in this last case was not
greatly unlike that raised in other cases, the action
itself was one of considerable consequence, and more
than ordinary interest was felt in tbe outcome. It
was a case, too, where, considering the naked question
of differences in rates between important sections of
the country, the merits of the controversy were not
very easy to determine. In other words, there was a
good deal to be said on both sides of the question. We
discussed the matter at length when the Commission
rendered its decision, and an editorial article on the
subject was given in the C h r o i t c c l e of July 7 1891.
While we did not approve of the order of the Commis
sion, it seemed to U3 that the Board had in this
instance treated the issue raised in a broader way than
was their wont, and that their presentation and analysis
of the facts bearing on the case showed an appreciation,
even if only partial, of the complex nature of the
problem and of the difficulties attending attempts at
its solution.
[V ol . LX1II.
There were really two cases. One wa3 the complaint
by the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce, the other
was the complaint by the Chicago Freight Bureau. Both
involved the question of rates to Southern points from
Cincinnati and points north. It appeared that on
through shipments from Chicago via the Ohio River
crossings, it was not the practice to pro-rate but to
charge the sum of the rate north of the Ohio River
plus that south of the Ohio. As a consequence
tariffs from central territory to Southern points on
articles of merchandise and manufactures were higher
than the tariffs from the Eastern seaboard to the same
points in the South, discriminating unjustly, it was
claimed, in favor of manufacturers herein the East and
8gainst those in central territory. The preference
existed only as regards the numbered classes of freight,
which cover articles of merchandise, &c. In the case
of the lettered classes, covering products of the soil,
the differences were in favor of the central territory
and against the East.
It was claimed that this arrangement of the rates
was the result of an agreement made years ago by
which Eastern lines and Eastern territory were to have
the traffic in merchandise and manufactured articles,
and Western roads and Western territory were to have
the traffic in food products and the like. The evidence
tended to show that back in 1878, some such agree
ment as this, ensuring to each section an advantage in
its own classes of goods, did control rates, and that the
basis of making rate schedules had not undergone any
substantial change since then. However, the roads
did not seek to justify the discrimination in favor o:‘
seaboard territory on any such ground. They con
tended, rather, that water competition along the sea
board was the controlling factor in the fixing of the rates
and accounted for the lower charges here in the East.
The Commission found that this contention of the
roads as to the influence of water competition was
sustained by proof. Their conclusion was, however,
that the existing disparity ia rates was too great.
This view it is proper to say coincided with that held
by some other observers. Circumstances regarding
trade in manufactured articles have greatly changed
within recent years. There are now large manufactur
ing interests in central territory, where in 1878 there
were hardly any, and hence there has been a feeling that
sooner or later an adjustment of rates between Eastern
and Western manufacturing districts would have to be
made. Railroad men themselves are by no meansagreed that, the old basis of rates, when applied to the
present conditions, is equitable and correct. Of course
it has not been claimed that Western Territory is en
titled to the advantages belonging to Eastern Territory
by reason of ocean competition, simply that apart from
any such consideration manufacturers in the West
should be given more favorable terms.
But though all this was true, the action of the Com
mission was nevertheless open to criticism. The
new schedule of charges which it sought to enforce
was wholly arbitrary. Then it was by no means clear
that this new schedule would furnish a remedy for the
situation complained of. The order of the Commis
sion wa3 also objectionable because it was the assump
tion by the Commission of a prerogative which within
proper limits ought to belong to the railroads, the Com
mission having no fitness for the task. Finally, there
was nothing in the Inter-State Act to sustain the view
that the Commission had been clothed with rate-maki jg powers and functions. It is on this latter ground

When arranged in groups, five groups record losses
in the gross, only three in the net. The latter com
prise the trunk-lines, the Middle Western roads and
the Northwestern. The ratios of gain in net are heavy
in the anthracite coal group, where the increase is 21AL
per cent, and in the Southwestern group, where the
increase is 35A5 per cent. The r< suit in the ooe case
has been controlled by the very favorable return of the
Reading, in the other by the very favorable return of
the Atchison ; though with the exception c.f the Color

MEMPHIS AND SOUND MONEY.
The following corrects a mis-statement contained in one o f
our articles last week and which arose out of the fact that the
early telegraphic returns, on which our remark was based,
did not make the result as favorable as it should have been.
Memphis and other Southern cities certainly deserve great
credit for the large vote they polled in favor of sound money

Being an old-time subscriber and so rarely finding an erro
neous statement in your paper, I was surprised to read iu
yours of the 17th, page. 856, second column, as follows : “ In
Nashville and Memphis, traditional Democratic strongholds,
the free coinage Democratic ticket was almost defeated.”
Memphis voted a majority both for President for M cK iiley
and Josiah Patterson, sound money Democratic candidate for
Congressman. Yours truly,

All over Europe the utmost satisfaction is felt at the result
of the Presidential election of Tuesday last. Although, as I
explained last week, the general opinion was that Mr. McKin
ley would be elected, nevertheless as the time of the election
came closer and closer there was a decided feeling of uneasi
ness. This uneasiness was undoubtedly intensified by the
large sums of money which were withdrawn from Europe,
and especially from the Bank of England, upon American
account. These sums being so large and called for within so
short a time were regarded in very many quarters as in the
nature of “ accommodation money.” It is no exaggeration
to say that the interest taken in the result of the ( lection was
almost as keen in London as in New York, and the expres
sions of satisfaction when the result was known were, as I
have already said, unanimous. It is felt that not only have
the American people escaped from a terrible calamity (for so
the viotory of Mr. Bryan would have been regarded in
Europe), but it is also felt that they have upon a great occa
sion shown themselves worthy of the high character which
they bear in the estimation of other peoples of the world .

The Money Market autl Financial Situation.—The gen
eral situation, as it relates to Wall Street operations, has
undergone very little change during the week. Business at
the Stock Exchange has been more limited in volume than
last week, but is in a more normal condition and confidence
is becoming more firmly rooted.
Increasing activity in industrial affaire continues to be
a feature, although not so protounced as daring the ten
days immediately following the election. The larger volume
of business is shown by the increasing number of freight
cars now being handled by many prominent railroads
throughout the country, and by an increase of 1W per cent
in the hank clearings.
The fact that several railway systems report a decrease of
earnings compare i with those of J885 is accounted for by
the fact that last year the traffic was unusually heavy. Cur
rent reports compare favorably with those for the corres
ponding period o f 1894
The foreign exchange market is an interesting feature. It
has been alternately easy and firm, with corresponding
fluctuations in rates. The tendency to firmness was stimul
ated by the high discount rates now ruling in London, wl ile
our present foreign trade conditions naturally had an oppo
site effect. The statistics o f the foreign trade of the United
States for October, issued this week by the Treasury Depart
ment, are significant. They show for that month the largest
balance in our favor we have ever had with the single ex
ception o f December, 1891.
The condition of the banks and the money market is
evidence of the fact that hoarded money continues to flow
into the channels of trade. The bank statement to be issued
to-morrow will doubtless show a further large increase in
reserve and in deposits; the money market has been growing
easier day by day.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have ranged from 2}4 to i per
cent. To-day’s rates on call were
to 8 per cent. Prime
oommcTcial paper is quoted at 4jg to 5 per cent.
The Bank o f England weekly statement on Thursday
showed an increase in bullion of £213,942, and the percent
age of reserve to liabilities was 62'53, against 52'40 last
week ; the discount rate remains unchanged at 4 per cent.
The Bank o f France shows an increase of 3,978,000 francs in
gold and 2.724,000 francs in silver.
The New York City Clearing-House banks in their statement
of Nov. 14 showed an increase in the reserve held of f t 8,673,500
and a surplus over the required reserve of $23,503,925, against
114,810,400 the previous week.

State and Railroad Bonds.—Sales of State bonds at the
Board are limited to 815,000 Virginia 6s deferred trust re
ceipts, stamped, at 7%. and *2,000 Virginia fund, debt 2-3s of
1991 at 61%.
The principal change to note in the railway bond market
is a more limited volume o f business Offerings o f highgrade bonds have been readily absorbed by investors. The
activity has been chiefly with the low-priced issues, includ
ing American Spirits, Atchison, Reading, Northern Pacific
and Texas & Pacific bonds, but extends in some degree to
Chicago & Erie, Chicago & Eastern Illinois, Hocking Valley,
Rock Island, St. Paul, Mo, Kan. & Texas, Fort Worth & D.
C., Oregon Improvement, San Antonio & A, Pass, Southern
By.. Union Pacific, U. S. Cordage, Wabash, WestShore and
Wis. Central issues.
Southern By. bonds were weak on the failure of the Ryan
syndicate to obtain control of the Seaboard Air-Line. Fort
Worth & Denver City have advanced, on the restoration of
the property to the control o f the company.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market
has been exceptionally narrow notwithstanding the per
sistent efforts of traders who work for a lower range of
prices. There are a few exceptions to the rule in the rail
road list, including Manhattan Elevated, Southern Railway
preferred and some o f the granger shares.
Tills is not surprising in the case of Manhattan Elevated,
which had advanced over 13 points within two weeks. All
the Southern Railway securities have been weak for reasons
mentioned above, and the grangers were depressed because
of unfavorable traffic reports. The new Northern Pacific
preferred (when issued) has been in favor and is one of the
strong features of the market. The coal stocks have been
strong on limited sales.
The miscellaneous list has fluctuated more widely under
active manipulation. American Tobacco has declined nearly
7 points. Metropolitan Traction rose 5 per cent on the
declaration of the 20 per cent scrip dividend on Wednesday,
but the advance was not sustained. American Sugar and
Term, Coal, Iron & Ry. are 2% and 2 points respectively
lower than last week. Pacific Mail advanced 2% points,
as it is again on the list of dividend-payers. American
Spirits has been heavily dealt in and had advanced 2 points
on Wednesday, when it sold at 14%, but has dropped back
to last week’s quotations. General Electric, Western Union,
U. S. Leather preferred and Chicago Gas are fractionally
lower than last week.

Philadelphia & Reading RR.—Philadelphia & R eading
R y —The Heading Company.—New lompany Organized. —
At Philadelphia, Nov. 17, the Philadelphia & Reading Railway
Company was organized to succeed to ihe property and fran
chises of the Philadelphia & Reading RR. Co., sold in fore
closure Sept. 23. The new company has capital stock aggre
gating $20,000,000, in $50 shares. Us officers and directors
are as follows : President, Josepu S. Harris ; First Vice-Presi
dent, Theodore Voorhees; Treasurer, W A. Caurch; General
Solicitor, James D. Campbell and Comptroller Daniel Jones.
Directors — George F. Baer, Charles H Coster, Thomas
McKean, Francis Lynde Stetson, George C. Thomas and John
Lo vber Welsh. Of these directors Messsrs. Baer, McKean
and W ish were members of the old board. The directors
hold office until the first Monday of May, 1897.
Messrs, Coster and Stetson presented a deed of conveyance,
which was delivered to the directors, after they had handed
over to the accredited purchasers the entire capital stock of
the company, except seven shares—one share for each of the
board—and also a bond of the company for $30,009,000, dated
Nov. 18, 1896, and payable Jan. 1, 1997, with interest at the
rate of 6 per cent. The bond is secured by a mortgage on all
the property and franchises.
The expectation is that the receivers of the old Reading
Railroad will transfer the property to the new corporation at
midnight on Nov. 30. The directors of the Reading Coal &
Iron Co. also met and accepted the deed of conveyance given
by Messrs. Coster and Slots m, the purchasers of the coal and
iron property at foreclosure sale.
As appears from the preceding statements, the properties of
the Railroad Company and of the Coal & Iron Company are
to be held as heretofore by two separate corporations) out
sine, the present laws of Pennsylvania forbid the new rail
way company to own over 30,000 acres of coal land, the plan
is to have a company called the “ Reading Company” own all

Mine Hill road is to be held on November 27 and of the
Catawissa on Dec. 15, when the proposals of the Reading
Company for a reduction of the rental will be submitted.
Both boarcs recomend the acceptance of the reduction.
The semi-annual dividend of the Catawissa road is said to
have been withheld pending the decision of the questi in.
The proposal is understood to be t >reduce the dividend on
Catawissa shares from 7 to 5 per cent, on Mine Hill & Schuyl
kill Haven shares from 8 to 6 per cent. The "Pniladclohia
Ledger” says it understands “ that the Reading management
has proposed to the Chestnut Hill RR. to reduce the rental,
now 12 per cent, to 6 per cent.” The Reading Company, in
case of non-acquiescence, will not assume the properties.—

Notice of the sale of this road has been issued by Ed ward

the court being §3,000,000.—V. 63, p. 76.
Seaboard Air-Line—Seaboard & Roanoke RR —Trans
fers o f Stock Refused—It was officially announced on Mov.
17 that the deal for the sale of th“ Seaboard Air-Line to Thos.
F. Ryan, representing a New York syndicate, had oeen
Blocked by the refusal of the po it committee to deliver, as
Mr. Ryan alleges it bad c intracted to do, the stock which it
holds. ••Under the terms of the pooling agreement,” President
Hoffman is quoted as saying,“no sale of the pooled stock can
be made without the assent of three-fourths of the stock
pooled. There are 8,321 shares in the pool, and as less than
half that amount gave their consent no sale will be made.”
Thos. F. Ryan on Wednesday made substantially the fol
lowing statement regarding the situation :
[V ol.

paid it. The gross earnings since the defendant company
took possession of the Terre Haute & Peoria are stated as fol
lows : For the thirteen months ending Oct. 81,1893, §149,520;
for the year ending Oct 31, 1894, §404 014; for the yeir end
ing Oct. 31, 1895, $445,483; October, 1895, up to Sjpt. 1, 1898,
(estimated), §341,000, all of which money, it is alleged, has
been appropriated by the defendant.
The complai tants further allude to the fact, already made
known in these columns, that the interest payable by the
defendant company upon the bonds of tae Terre Haute &
L 'gansport and the Indiana & Lake Michigan is in default.
The complainants further expressed the belief that the in
terest hue Nov. 16 on the second mortgage bends of the Sc.
Louis Vandalta & Terre Haute, and also the interest and
principal due Jan. 1, 1897, on the first mortgage bonds of the
same company would not be paid at maturity. As a matter
of fact, we learn from the Central Trust Co. that the interest
on this second mortgage was due Nov. 1 and that the cou
pons were then and are now being naid on presentation.
In 1892, when ttie Terre HiUte & Peoria was leased to the
T. H, & I,, a new mortgage for §2,500,000 was executed by
the T. H. & P., and it was understood that all the old firs:
mortgage bonds of 1887, aggregating § i,800,000, were ex
changed at that time for the new bonds. It now transpires
that old first mortgage bonds for §112,000 remain outstand
ing, underlying the mortgage of 1892. —V. 63, p 407.

West Chicago Street RR.—New Mortgage for $10,000,000
Filed .—The new consolidated mortgage for §10,000,000, uader which the Central Trust Co. of New York is trmtee, was
tiled this week. Of the bonds authorized $3,969,000 are
placed in trust and can be issu“d only on retirem ?at of an
equal amount of cue outstanding firit mortgage fives. The re
mainder of the loan is applicable to the payment of the out
standing debentures and the floating debt, etc. Debentures
to the amount of §6,000,000, it seems, have been created, but
only §2,700,000 sold, and of this last amount $2,000,000, it is
understood, are subject to call on or before Dec. 1, 1896. The
remainder of the debentures were pledged as collateral to
secure the floating debt, which will now be taken up, consols
for $3,331,000 being reported already sold. The new bonds
are for §1,000 each, bearing 5 per cent interest (payable
M. & N.) and mature Nov. 1. 1936. Both principal and inter
est are payable in gold.—V. 63, p. 756.

Speculation in cotton for future delivery has been
fairly active but the course of prices has been down
ward. There has been general liquidation by “ longs,’1
induced by a continued free movement of cotton from
planters’ hands. The belief has been growing steadily lat
terly that the crop has been under-estimated. Saturday there
was a steady market, with the ohanges in prices for the day
unimportant. Monday, however, prices broke rather sharply,
as there were free offerings from the South and Europe, and
local operators were also selling, prompted by the fullness of
the crop movement. Tuesday the selling pressure was not
so great ahd a recovery of 3 to 4 points in prices was made,
as there was some buying by “shorts” to cover contracts.
Wednesday the market again turned weaker, prices showing
a deoline for the day of 13@16 points. There was renewed
selling for Southern and foreign account, and as prices de
clined stop orders were reached, which added to the weak
ness of the market. Thursday there was an irregular mar
ket. The opening was steady but later in the day there was a
pressure to sell, both for Southern and foreign account.
Toward the close, nowever, on advices from Texas stating
that the crop movement would show a falling off next week,
there was a recovery. To-day the market declined 5@7
points during early ’Change under general selling, prompted
by the interior receipts for the week showing a larger move
ment of the crop than had been estimated. Subsequently,
however, on a demand from “ shorts” to cover contracts,
prices advanced and the close was steady, with prices 3
points lower to 3 points higher for the day. Cotton on the
spot has been quiet and prices declined j^c. <n Monday and
1-16c. on Wednesday. To-day the market was quiet and
l-16o. lower, middling uplands closing at 7%o.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are
1,339,309 bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot
up this week 3,846 bales, including ---- for export, 346
for consum ption,-----for speculation and 2,500 on contract.
The following are the official quotations for each day of the
past week—November 14 to November 20.

November 20, 1896
There has continued a quiet market for wheat flour, as buy
ers and sellers have been apart in their views. The latter,
despite a weaker turn to the grain market, have held firm as
they hold only a moderate stock and the offerings by mills
have been small, but buyers would only trade at concessions.
City mills have been quiet but steady. Rye flour has been
quiet and without change. Buckwheat flour has been in slow
demand but steadily held. Corn meal has sold slowly, but no
changes have occurred in values. To-day the market for
wheat flour was quiet and unchanged.
There has been a fairly active speculation in the market for
wheat fu ures, but there has been a weaker tendency to
prices. Early in the week large Russian shipments and an
unexpected increase in the visible supply of wheat in this
country prompted free selling by “ longs” to realize profits, and
prices declined rather sharply. Subsequently, however, there
was a partial recovery on a demand from “ shorts” to cover
contracts, stimulated by stronger foreign advices and a
revival of ihe export demand, but yesterday the market
again turned weaker under liquidating sales by longs. In
the spot market shippers have been fairly large buyers, in
cluding about 200,000 bushels purchased for export to Aus
tralia. The business transacted yesterday included No. 1
Northern Duluth at 89%e. f.o.b. afl iat. To-day the market was
fairly active at declining prices under continued liquidation
by longs, prompted by easier foreign advices. The spot mar
ket was fairly active. The sales included No. 1 Northern
Duluth at 87%c. f.o.b. afloat and No. 1 hard at 9 0% o. f.o.b.
afloat. No. 2 red winter was quoted nominally at 93%c.
f.o.b. afloat.

TH E DRY GOODS TRADE.
year are as follows:
N ew Y ork . Fr id a y . P. M., N o v . 20, 1896.
The attendance of buyers during the past week has been
fair, bat considerably smaller than the preceding week, and
there has be.-n a quieter market on the spot in the cottongoods division. As a matter of fact business has hardly
borne out expectations even of the more conservative char
acter, and in a number of directions disappointment with re.
suits is expressed. The tone of the market is still steady, but
there are no apparent indications at the close of any improve
ment in prices, such ns were seen here and there immediately
after the elections. The weather has been too mild for a brisk
business in seasonable lines, whilst the weakness in the cotton
market bus been against sellers of staple cotton goods. There
is no wider ce of stocks of the latter accumulating, and in a
number of lines the market is out indifferently supplied.
The demand for new spring specialties has been fair. Busi
ness in men '-wear woolens continues dull, but prices are
firm. Dress goods are selling fairly. Several important auc
tion sales were held during the week, including woolen,
worsted and cotton dress goods, silk tiobons and silk hand
kerchiefs and mufflers, R-.ults were generally satisfactory,
but disclosed no striking feature,
Wooi.ES G oods —The re order demand for light-weight
woolens and worsteds for men's wear has shown no expan
sion during the past week, buyers atiil proceeding with much
caution in taking supplementary supplies. Sellers of fancy
all-wool goods in medium grades are not easy to deal with
and advanced prices are occasionally asked. Some new lines
of heavy weight goods for next fall have b e e n opened, but
the display so far is decidedly limited. An occasional^ line
show* an advance of about 5 per cent over last season. There
is a light demand for fall weights for immediate delivery.
Cotton-warp and cotton-mixed goods are dull. Over coatings
sell slow 1v, n? do cloakings. Tbe latter are affected by several
failures during the past week in tbe cloaking trade. Flannels and b l a n k e t ? are without material change. Spring dress
good? arc fairly well ordered at steady prices; fall business
quiet.
Domestic C o t t o - G o o d s — The exports of cotton goods
from this port for the week ending Nov, 16 were l,8uo
packages, valued at $96,983, their destination being to the
points specified in the tables below:

District Irrigation Laws of California Declared Valid.
—The Supreme Court of the United States has this week
rendered a decision sustaining the constitutionality of the
Wright Irrigation District Law of California. This decision
will establish the validity of Dume-ous issues of irrigation
district bonds, which has been in question for some time past.
Last year the United States Circuit* Court of Southern Cali
fornia decided against the Wright Law, which had been pre
viously upheld by the Supreme Court of California. The
United States Supreme Court now sustains the opinion of the
State Court and reverses the decision of the Federal Circuit
Court.
The “ District Irrigation Law” of California, popularly
known as the “ Wright Act,” was passed by the Legislature
after a hard struggle in 1887, and was amended in 1889 and
1891. It provides that the organization and government of
irrigation districts shall be much the same as that of counties,
t authorizes the districts to issue bonds for the acquirement
of irrigation works and canals, to make assessments for the
payment of the principal and interest of such bonds, and in
case the assessments become delinquent to sell the property
for their payment.
Protection of Municipal Bo ad Issues.—The system for
the more adequate protection of municipal bond issues inaug
urated by the U. S. Mortgage & Trust Co., of New York is
meeting with the success deserved. The company has cer
tified as to the genuineness of over $6,000,000 of bonds pre
pared by them. By the use of its own steel plates the cost
for printing bonds is greatly reduced, so that a small muni
cipality can avail itself of the system, and have its bonds
surrounded by the same safeguards as protect securities listed
on the New York Stock Exchange.
B o n d P ro p o s a ls a n d N e g o tia tio n s.— We have r<ceived through the week the following notices of bonds
recently negotiated and bonds offered and to be offered for
sale.
