the week covered by the above will be
given next Saturday. We cannot furnish them to-day, clearings bemg made up by the clearing houses at noon on Saturday, and hence in the above the last day of the week has to
•be in all cases estimated, as we go to press Friday night.
We present below our usual detailed figures for the previous
week, covering the returns for the period ending with Saturday noon, Nov. 15, and the results for the corresponding
week
1901, 1900 and 1899 are also given.
Contrasted with
the week of 1901 the total for the whole country shows a gain
of 4-5 per cent. Outside of New York the increase over 1901
is 8-3 per cent.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
A

highly significant change for the better is dis
closed by the latest foreign trade statement that for
October, issued this week. The agency which has of

—

done most to derange industrial surroundings has
been the prohibition put upon the export of manufactured commodities and the stimulus imparted to
their import by high prices; thereby our large favorable trade balance has been gradually lessening until
it is assumed now to be wholly used up and an export
of gold needed to meet current trade requirements.
Under these circumstances any suggestion Govern-

late

ment returns

afford of a reversal in these conditions

becomes of course a source of hopefulness. This is
chiefly so because contained in the thought is a
chance that a way is in process of being opened for
paying what we owe abroad without sending so much
gold as has been the prospect recently.
Of course it has' all along been felt that our abundant crops afforded ground for a belief that the;
would help us to work through the strain. That expectation has not been given up, and yet the material
decline in the favorableness of the foreign trade

fig-

months has been in that way a little
discouraging. We have been wont to charge the decrease in exports to the small remnant left for export
of our very small crops of corn and oats last year.
That explains the situation only in part. For instance, the totals of merchandise exports for July and
August of the current fiscal year were only $183,732,ures for some

same month the previous year

that the last total, the one for October,

the largest merchandise outany month of any year in our record except
October 1900, when it was $163,389,680, and December
1900, when it was $145,889,865, and October 1901,
when it was $145,659,415.
The chief interesting fact, however, with reference
to this year's report for October remains still to be
stated.
It has already been noted that last year's
total October exports were about 2£ million dollars
larger than this year's total, and that the 1900 October total was 20 i million dollars larger. Notwithstanding that circumstance, the general merchandise
exports (that is, the exports over and above the total
of the articles grouped by the Statistical Bureaujunder
the head of Exports of Breadstuffs, Provisions, Cotton, Petroleum, &c.) in October 1902 exceeded the
month a year ago by $3,682,484, and were very nearly
the same as they were in 1900. That is to say, the
outflow of general merchandise this year is as large as
it was two years ago and larger than it was a year ago;
consequently, if, when the larger crop movement gets
fully under way, this feature of increase in the general
merchandise movement is continued, we may assume
that our exports will exceed any former total.

Mr. John Stanton issued the usual
monthly figures on Friday of last week and they
showed that the output for October ran above that for
September and was close to the largest figure ever
reached in any single month, the amount being put at
26,252 tons, which compares with 24,098 tons In 1901
and 23,345 tons in 1900. On the other hand, the exports of copper are only of moderate proportions, though
much larger, of course, than in this month last year,

October 1901 and 12,682 tons in October 1900. The

UNIONISM AND THE BOYCOTT.
Three very notable incidents of the past few days
have been the attempted boycott of the Schenectady
street car lines by a trades union of that city, the
continued attack by other unions on workingmen
identified with the National Guard and the examination of Mr. John Mitchell before the Strike Commission in the matter of the coal-strikers' attitude
towards non-union men. We have grouped these
three incidents under the general head, " Unionism
and the Boycott," because that is the question which
was involved in each of them. The purpose of the
Trades Assembly at Schenectady was avowed with
more openness than that of the other bodies referred
to, but it is sufficiently clear that in a greater or less
degree the State militia has been boycotted in the
case of the several unions who have proscribed members connected with it, and that the whole community
in the coal fields was boycotted by the anthracite
union miners, so far as it had anything to do with
non-union labor. We have a word to say about each
of these undertakings.

may be said that there was a slight improvement in
this respect, the average for the late year having been

The improvement, It would seem, however, does not represent
any increase
in the charge to shippers

means that there was a falling off in
the lower and cheaper class freights, while at the same
time there was an increase in general merchandise

from the poor crops of the year preceding, while the

The following shows the merchandise balance
each year back to 1875.

Unfortunately, the free gift of three millions sterling for
and of two millions sterling to
compensate the loyalists for their losses will practically wipe
out the surplus which Sir M. H. Beach anticipated. It will
be recollected that he expected a total surplus of revenue
over expenditure on the basis of the taxation of the present
year of about 10 millions sterling. Oat of this he proposes to
resume the sinking fund, which will require somewhat over
four millions sterling and which of course will go to the
the repatriation of the Boers

foi

There would then remain between five
and six millions sterling, which would also goto the redemption of debt. Unfortunately the Boer gift thus wipes out
five millions, so that the redemption of debt in the three
months ending with April will be five millions less than
everybody anticipated recently. Still, there will be a sinking fund available of over five millions, and that will no doubt
soon affect the market, especially as ruon-y is likely by and
by to be plentiful and easy. Moreover, next year the reduction of the interest on consols by \i per cent will set free
about a million and a-half sterling, wmch will also be available for the redemption of debt.
In other departments there is little to call for notice.
There is some uncertainty as to the course of trade in the immediate future. Up to the present the Clearing House returns
and the railway returns are exceedingly satisfactory and
show that business is very active. But there are complaints
that new orders are not coming in freely, and there is some
apprehension that we are entering upon a less active period.
On the other hand, careful observers and gool judges think
that the outlook is favorable, and that we are much nearer
an improvement than is generally supposed. la any event,
the uncertainty has some inflaence upon Stock Exchange

The Money Market and Financial Situation.— The liquidating movement which was the conspicuous feature of last
week's market had practically finished its course when that
week closed. There was a hardening tendency during the short
session on Saturday and Monday's market showed still further
improvement. During the progress of the week the tendency
has, with more or less irregularity, been to firmness under

Elevated shares. Various rumors accompanied the latter
movement, the latest and best accredited of which seems to
be that a lease of Manhattan has been made to the iDterborough Company. If this is true it will result, as is well
known, in a passing of Manhattan control from Gould-Sage
to Belmont interests, and therefore in a harmonious management of the Elevated and Rapid Transit systems when

international trade balance during the coming grain and

Street Railway Net Earnings.— In the following we show
both the gross and the net earnings to latest dates of all Street
railways from which we have been able to procure monthly
returns. As in the case of the steam roads, the returns of the
different roads are published by us each week as soon as received, and once a month (on the third or the fourth Saturday of the month) we bring together all the reads reporting,
as Is done to-day. Besides the companies furnishing monthly
returns, we have added this time the roads which make
quarterly returns.

President William H. Baldwin Jr. says in snbstance
General Results.— The operations for the past fiscal year show an
:

in the general traffio earnings and in the physical condition of the property. The increase in gross earnings, including
York
Rooaaway Beach Ry. (in both years), was $664,849, or
12-7 per cent. The operation of the road has been made more efficient

OENEBAL BALANCE SHEET JUNE

Improvement

&

New

$

In every department, but the increased facilities furnished, together
with the unprecedented cobi of fuel, wages and supplies, are refleeted intbe expenses, whioh lnoreased $380,419.
The surplus net income was $544,255, whioh was credited to extraordinary expenditure fund, and after charging against that fund $ 56,824, the amount standing to its credit June 30, 1902, was $583,240.
The principal charges to Long Island extraordinary expenditure
fund were: Bridges, $42,477; rails, fastenings and interlocking,
$50,562; new stations, $3 -.649. The net oharges to capital account
were: Roadway, buildings and fixtures, $290,528; equipment, $533,163; marine equipment, *50,899; total, $874,!i91.
Majntknancb, Improvements, Etc.— During the year 3,300 tons of
100 pound rail were laid, releasing good relaying rail, whioh was used
on branobes. The appraised value of the equipment is In excess of its
book value. There were added to the equipment this spring 8 ten- wh^el
20x26 cj linder locomotives; 53 oars in passengers service (lnoluding S
vestibule parlor cars) aud 2 passenger motor cars. Eleven grade
crossings were eliminated and six are In process of change.
Large expenditures will be necessary upon the New York & Rookaway Beach Ry. to replace equipment worn out or destroyed In past
years, oonstruot additional tracks across Jamaica Bay, and equip it
for electrical operation In order to protect Its business and meet the
competition of other lines.
Tbollet links.— In order to accommodate thlokly settled districts
adjacent to the railroad two additional trolley lines were constructed
at a total cosr of $r 7,793— the Northport Traotlon Co., extending from
East Northport 8tation to Northport Harbor, 269 miles, and the
Nassau County Railway Co., from Sea Cliff Station to Sea CUff, 1-59
1

miles.

Steamers —The steamer Sagamore was purchased as an additional
ferryboat, to ply between Wall St. and Long Island City, at a cost of
$50,899. The steamer Montauk, owned by the Montauk Steamboat
Co., was sold, and a large steamer will be built in Its place.
Favobable decision —The decision of Justice Marean of Brooklyn,
forfeiting runts of the company In part of the right of way and tracks
of the Manhattan Beach Division at the suit of the Oanarsle RR. was
unanimously reversed by the Appellate Division in June; the opinion
practically establishes ownership of the routes in our lessor company.
TuNNbLS Etc.— lhe suit of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co. to prevent the Atlantic Avenue improvement has been decided In our favor
on the preliminary motions and the injunctions denied, and the work is
prooeealng. The ohange of grade of traoks from Fiatbush to Atkins
Ave. was begun Nov. 8, 1901. Payment by the olty of its proportion
(one-half) of the cost of these improvements has been approved, and
the accounts win be settled as they accrue.
The application for a franchise for the LoDg Island Extension RR.
Co. to construct a tunnel between Manhattan Island ana Long Island
City has been withdrawn. Meanwhile the Pennsylvania RR. Co. has
applied ror a fr nchise to build two single-track tunnels from Its lines
In New Jersey to a large central station to be located at 33d St. and
7th Ave
Manhattan, and thence to Long Island City, with four
single-traok tunnels to a oonneotlon with the Long Island RR. It la
intended that thla terminal station shall also be used by the Long
Island RR. co.
On July 24 the Board of Rapid Transit Commissioners of the City of
New York awarded a contract to the Interborough RR Co. to construct a subway and tunnel from City Hall, New York:, to Fiatbush
Ave., Brooklyn, as an extension of the subway now being constru -ted
in New York. The completion of this most important work, within
three years, together with the completion of the Atlantic Avenue Improvement of the Long Island RR. Co., will pro vide a convenient and
satisfactory route for Long Island passengers to and from lower
,

Manhattan Island.
With the two tunnel connections, one from 83rd St., Manhattan, and
another by way of Brooklyn, a large permanent traffio will be secured,
as well as an Increased summer business. In anticipation of suoh new
conditions, considerable expenditures must be made in additional
track, yards and equipment, and the Indications are that In the near
future the problem to be met will be that of handling the business.

Detroit Southern Railroad.

(Report for the

fiscal

year ending June

30, 1902.)

President Samuel Hunt says in substance
Equipment.— Owing to conditions beyond control, the results have
been far from satisfactory. Through lack of rain the water supply for
engines was so extremely bad as to be ruinous to boilers. Unfortunately the greater part of the equipment- already old— acquired in
the purchase of the property had been badly cared for previously,
and the busy season (at once upon us) found us In a state of unpreparedness that was well nigh appalling. Moreover besides requiring
amuoh greater amount of fuel, the leaking and crippled engines,
throughovertlme, inefficient service and repeated break-downs, largely
Increased our pay-rolls. The work of rebuilding aud repairing both
engines and oars has been pushed as rapidly as possible with the
means at hand, and with newequlpment purchased and contracted for,
it Is expeoted better results will be attained during the coming year.
Wages —During the receivership of the Detroit & Lima Northern
Ry.. the scale of wages paid the employes was only 65 p. o. of that
paid on the Ohio Southern and by other roads In the same territory.
Soon after the consolidation, it was found that the disparity could not
be continued, and the wages on the Northern Division were equalized,
:

thus adding largely to the increased cost or transportation.
Ntw Terminals —Not only have the switching oharges In Detroit
been prohibitory In effect, but the rentals required for traoks and
station facilities at that olty are exorbitant. With the view of bettering this condition, the company has recently acquired s mewhat over
50 acres of land ou Zug Island, with a frontage on the Detroit River
and on the Short Out Canal, a total water front of 3,300 feet. This
land lies adjacent to the works of the Bolvay Piocess Co. and the plant
under construction for the Detroit Iron & Steel Co. It permits the immediate development of muoh needed freight terminals and storage
tracks, In addition to coal and ore docks, and will undoubtedly prove
of great value to the property. The cost of the land was defrayed by
the sale of $116,000 of the company's 4 per oent bonds.'

Iron Railway.— Near the close of the year a contraot was entered
Into for the purchase of the Iron Railway, extending from Ironton to
Dean, In Ohio, with branches to various ooal mines, In all 18^ miles of
track, with valuable terminals in Ironton and fa oar transfer on the
Ohio River oonneetlng with the Chesapeake & Ohio Ry. The purchase
of this property, ana the construction of the mileage between Jackson
and Lawrence Station (necessary to connect the two properties, will
assuredly result In materially lnoreaslng our earnings. Work is progressing satisfactorily on the extension and its completion is looked
for at an early date.
Maintenance, Etc.— No charges of any kind were made to capital
account except for the Detroit River terminals ($118,707) and 5 new
consolidation freight locomotives and 50 stock cars of 60,000 pounds
oapaoity ($105,413). This new equipment was received during April,
1902, and to pay for it $100,000 Ohio Southern Division bonds were
issued 5 additional freight engines of the same type, and 500 eightythousand pounds capaoity ooal cars have been ordered, for October
and November delivery. During the year there were purchased 151,487 ties, two-thirds of which had been placed in the track prior to
June 30. Four and one third miles of new seventy-pound rail have
been purchased and laid In the main track on the Southern Division,
and about 4^ miles of new slde-traoks have been built.

Eastern Trnnk Lines.— Wages.— Following the example

of the Pennsylvania RR, Co., noted last week, a number of
the leading Eastern railroad companies either have given
notice of an advance in wages or have intimated their intention to grant concessions. On the New York Central an increase of 10 p. c. is being gradually put in force; on the
Reading and the Central New Jersey the men, it is stated,
will be given as good wages as are enjoyed by the employes
of neighboring lines.
Wages.— Considerable prominence is being given in the
daily papers to an alleged determination on the part of the
Eastern trunk lines to recoup themselves for the advances in
wages by increasing the rates charged for carrying certain
classes of freight.
What change, if any, is contemplated in
this direction, other than usually follows the close of inland

The new standard-gauge engines are now in service between Laredo and Monterey, hauling southward over 1,200
gross tons per train as against 300 tons by the narrow-gauge
engines. The advantage thus attained is stated officially as
follows: " One standard-gauge engine hauls, therefore, over
four times as many tons as a narrow-gauge engine, and in
doing so consumes only twice as much coal, the result being
that the same amount of freight can be hauled under standardgauge conditions with one- fourth the number of engines,
one- fourth the iabor and only half the quantity of coal."—

New York & Brooklyn (Tnnnel) RR.—Preliminary Workin
Progress— This company has begun preliminary borings on
the property at the corner of Water and Beekman Streets
which was recently purchased for use in connection with the
proposed tunnel from Park Place, Manhattan, to Brooklyn.
This property is about 68 x 57 feet. The New York "Evening
Post " says
" Behind the Manhattan Transit Co. In this Important operation Is
sain to be the same syndicate of Englishmen who backed the construction of the London tuppenny tube.' According to the director,
passengers will be shot under the East River with the same method of
propulsion used by the soenlc railways at Coney Island. The two traoks
will be built with Inclines and reotprooal dips, the oars gathering
impetus by momemtum and self-checking excess of speed. Six million,
dollars have been raised by the English backers of the scheme, and
this sum is said to be deposited in New York at the present time. The
syndicate is to build the tube for the Manattan Transit Co., and the
company is to operate it and receive 50 p.o. of the earnings.
Fred B. Esler, formerly interested in the franchise, has disposed of
his interests in it. Ttie Manhattan Transit Co. Is the sole owner of the
franchise now. Gustavus Myers's "History of Publio Franchises In
New York City" says: the New York & Brooklyn Ry. Co. seoured a
franchise fr^m the Board of Aldermen in 1896 to construct and operate a tunnel from Ann St. and Park Row, under private property to be
acquired bv the company, and under Nassau, William and other
streets, to Pier No. 23, and thence to the City Hall, Brooklyn. The
company was reqnired to pay 2>* per cent of its gross reoeipts to the
olty in addition to the regularly assessed taxes. Mavor Strong approved the resolution. (Records of the Board, 1896 LXIV., p. 162.)

Great Lakes Coal Co. New Enterprise. This company
was reoently organized with $5,000,000 of authorized capital
stock (all common, no bonds) by Gnffy & Qaeen, the wellknown oil firm of Pittsburg, and purchased about 25,000
acres of coal lands near Bradj's Bend, Pa., 40 mil^s northeast of Pittsburg. Ten mines are being opened and five more
are to be developed later, increasing the daily output to some
12,000 tons. The Western Allegheny RR. Co., which is
owned by the coal company, has begun the building of a line
of railroad to open up the coal tra^t. This road will be of
high-rlass construction and low grades. It will extend from
Red Bank, Armstrong County, almost due west 18 miles, to
a connection with the Pittsburg B-ssemer
Lake Erie RR.,
which road will carry the coal to Conneaut Harbor on Lake
Erie, whence it will be shipped by boat to points on the Great
Lakes. The new road is also projected to New Castle, Pa.,
making in all a line 50.miles in length. The "PittsburgDespatch," in an accredited statement, says:
The tract contains three good veins of ooal— the ^reeport vein, four
feet thick and suitaMe for coking; the Upper Kittanning, six feet
thick, and the Lower Kittanning, four feet thick, both said to be splendid steam coals. All of these mines are to be worked by drifts, and
they are so located on the hills that coal will be mined from the three
and loaned upon the cars from one steel tipple. The coal was coked
for 40 years by the Brady's Bend Iron Co., and used in its blast fur-

The promoters of the Susquehanna Electric Power Co. are In no

way Interested directly or Indirectly In the option held by the Continental Trust Co. on the stook of the United Electrlo Light & Power
Co. My negotiations with those gentlemen have never extended beyond their hydraulic development on the river. Furthermore, I am
not ready to report to those I represent the results of the investigations not yet completed, whioh have covered a period of nearly two
years ana which will determine where on the river the hydraullo and
eleotric plants should be looated.

The contraot, under which an Increasing amount of power through

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.
Friday Night, Nov.

21, 1902.

A development that has

received considerable attention in
the commercial markets has been the advance of 10 per cent
in wages made by numerous railroad systems. This advance
has been of especial importance to interior merchants, the

opinion being widely expressed that it means an advance in
West-bound railroad freights in the near future. At any rate,
anticipating such an advance, these merchants have become
freer buyers of merchandise at Eastern markets for prompt

shipment to the interior so that advantage can be taken of
freight rates now in force. As to the general business situation,
conditions are satisfactory, with the outlook for continued
activity considered encouraging. Important price changes
that have occurred during the week have been a sharp upturn to prices for sugar, and in the speculative markets
prominent bull operatois have been aggressive in wheat and
corn, advancing* pi ices,

and there has been a material

re-

covery in cotton values.
Lard on the spot has been sparingly offered, due to small
stocks, and prices have advanced, following the speculative

market. The close was easier at 11 '50c. for prime Western
and 10 50@llc. for prime City. The demand for refined lard
has been quiet, but prices have been firm and higher, closing
at 11 '60c. for refined for the Continent. Speculation in lard
for future delivery has been fairly active at advancing prices.
Shorts have been steady buyers to cover contracts, influenced
by the advancing prices for feed-stuffs. The close was easier.

in light supply for best grades, closing firm at 28^c.f or choice

Brazil grade oicoffee have been firmly held, sellers being
encouraged by a decrease in the movement of the Brazil
crop. Demand has improved slightly, and prices have shown
a hardening- tendency. The close was quiet at 5%c. for Rio
No. 7. West India growths have been in moderate demand
and steady at 8J^c. for good Cucuta. East India growths
have been quiet and unchanged. Speculation in the market
for contracts has been fairly active and higher on more
general buying, stimulated by a falling off in the receipts of

Speculation in cotton for future delivery has been fairly
and there has been a sharp recovery in prices. The
selling for the account of discouraged speculative holders to
liquidate their accounts practically ceased at the close of last
development that has had considerable influence in
week.
favor of the market has been the crop movement, the reoeipts falling below expectations, and this has stimulated

weather reports from Texas also have had a bullish influence
upon the market, complaint being received of too much rain,
and that the late growth of bolls was not opening.

market and the decrease in the crop movement, and tbe reports that the late growth of cotton in Texas was not developing properly induced buying for investment account. The
Agricultural Bureau is expected to issue on December 3 a
bullish estimate of the yield of the present crop and there has
been some buying in anticipation of this report. The Southern spot markets have been reported as holding firm, with a
fairly large business transacted with both domestic spinners
and exporters. To-day the market opened at a slight decline
in response to disappointing advices from Liverpool. During
the day, however, there developed moderate buying for the
account of room traders and outside interests, and prices advanced. Later in the day, under realizing sales, the market
reacted, closing barely steady 2 points higher for November
but unchanged to 2 points lower for other months. Cotton
on the spot has advanced, closing at 8'50c. for middling up-

Cotton Facts.— Through the courtesy of Mr. Alfred B.
Shepperson, the compiler and publisher, we have received
this week a copy of his "Cotton Facts "—a handbook which
covers a mass of statistics and information which should be
of value to all those interested in cotton.

21, 1902.

Reflecting an advance in the prices for the grain, there has
been a firmer market for wheat flour. The volume of business transacted locally has reached only very moderate proportions, buyers as a rule apparently not having sufficient
confidence in the higher prices quoted to make purchases of
importance; consequently the sales made have been limited to
small lines to cover current wants only. Rye flour has been
quiet but steady. Buckwheat flour has had a slightly better
sale at steady prices. Corn meal has been firm but quiet.
Speculation in wheat for future delivery has been active,
especially in the Chicago market, and prices advanced on extensive buying, understood to be for the account of Armour
Co. The advance in prices was most pronounced for December deliveries, the aggressive operations by bull interests
creating considerable uneasiness among shorts in the near-by
positions, and they bonght to cover contracts. Cable advices from the European markets have been of an encouraging character, they reporting higher prices, and there
has been
some buying in the speculative markets
for foreign account.
The actual export demand, however, for cash wheat at the advance in prices has
been only moderate. The movement of the spring-wheat
crop has been smaller, weather conditions in the Northwest
during the first part of the week being less favorable for the
handling of the crop. Thursday there was a sharp reaction
in prices, especially for May delivery, under free realizing
sales by the recent buyers. The weather during the week
has been reported favorable for the growing winter- wheat
crop. To-day there was a less active and slightly easier market. The spot market was fairly active at steady prices, exporters being the buyers.

Indian corn futures have been active and prices for December contracts have advanced sharply in both the local
and Western market. Values for the more distant deliveries have improved in sympathy.
Daring the week
the weather conditions in the corn belt have not been
favorable for progress in drying the new crop. These
reports have made both local and foreign shorts nervous,
owing to the present small available supply of contract
grades, and they entered the market as free buyers to cover
contracts. Thursday there was a halt in the upward trend
to values. Clear and colder weather was reported from the
West, which was considered more favorable for an increased
of the new crop, and prompted free selling by
longs to realize profits. The spot market has been firmer
but quiet. To-day prices were again lower under continued
realizing sales. The spot market was quiet and easier.

Oats for future delivery have received only a limited
amount of speculative attention. There has been a slight
falling off in the crop movement, and this, coupled with
reports of a good cash trade at primary markets and sympathy with the rise in values for corn,has had a strengthening
influence upon prices. Locally the spot market has been
fairly active and firm. To-day the market was firmer on
reports of a more active cash demand.

ings and cloakings business has been dull outside of kerseys,
which are in steady request, scarce and firm. All descriptions of woolen and worsted dress goods have ruled quiet
but without change in prices. The market continues firm
for flannels and blankets.

The value of these New Sork exports since Jan. 1 to date
has been $11,702,429 in 1902, against $10,168,592 in 1901.
There has been no indication this week of a revival of buying of heavy brown cottons for China, and the general export
demand has been inactive. Business on home trade account
has been of moderate extent at previous prices. Sellers of
denims, plaids, cheviots and other coarse colored cottons report a well sold up market and no difficulty in maintaining
full prices in face of a generally quiet demand. The demand
for wide sheetings is quiet and is held in checfc in cotton
flannels and blankets by the scareity of ready supplies. Prices
unchanged. All grades of bleached muslins and cambrics
are steady in price, with no new feature in the demand coming forward. Kid finished cambrics are steady but dull.
Indigo blue shirting and mourning prinU have sold liberally
for spring, and there has been a fair business in light fancy

Yobk. Friday, P. M„ Nov. 21, 1902.
There has been no noticeable development in the general
demand for cotton goods at first hands during the week.
The day-to-day demand has averaged about the same as last
week, and outside of specialties for next spring has been
practically governed by near requirements. It is significant
of the general condition of the market that this demand suffices to keep most lines of merchandise well sold up and in
some quarters is even in excess of current unsold production.
In connection with forward business in heavy staple cottons,
the tone shows more steadiness than a week ago. Then, under
the influence of a declining|cotton market, sellers were showing signs of weakness on distant deliveries, but with cotton
recovering considerably this week there is noticeably a hesitation on the part of such sellers to repeat the offers of a week
ago. In no direction is there any quotable change in prices
and the general tone is steady. The jobbing trade reports
are generally satisfactory and few complaints are heard on
the score of collections.
Woolen Goods.— An increase in business has been reported this week in men's-wear woolen and worsted fabrics
in light-weights for spring. Clothiers are making progress
with their sample lines of spring garments and are beginning
to re-order more freely. The weather has been against the
clothing trade so far this winter by reason of its open character, so that with a cold spell, which can hardly be long delayed now, a considerable degree of activity ia looked for.
There is little doing in heavy- weights for quick shipment beyond closing out some stock goods at irregular prices. The
new heavy-weight season for 1903 is not expected to open for
several weeks to come, but some business in staple lines has
been done. No prices have been mentioned, but a higher market generally in next fall weights is looked for. The overcoat -

Cincinnati, Ohio.— Bonds Valid.— Local papers state that
on November 5 the Circuit Court decided that the law authorizing the issue of $180,000 in bonds to purchase sites for
branch libraries was valid, thus affirming Judge Murphy.
The entry, it is said, was not merely formal, but was made
after the Court had studied the case in the light of recent
decisions of the Supreme Court to the effect that laws relating to the things incident to the conduct of the school
system were not special legislation, though they related to
only one connty or city. See V. 75, p. 1052.
Logan, Utah.— Bond Litigation.— Suit haB been filed by
S. W. Riter against the City Counoil to prevent the latter
from issuing the $65,000 4 per cent electric-light bonds
voted this year.
It is contended that the city has no
legal right to issue bonds for more than $28,000. The State
Board of Land Commissioners, which purchased the entire
issue, was satisfied, it is stated, as to the legality of the
bonds, but in order to be perfectly safe insisted that the
question should be passed upon by the courts. The suit has
accordingly been brought. After being passed upon in the
District Court the case will be at once appealed to the Supreme Court.
Missouri. Amendments to State Constitution. We are
advised by the Secretary of State that unofficial returns indicate that all eight amendments to the State Constitution
voted upon at the recent election were adopted. Several of
these amendments relate to taxation; one permits the city of
St. Louis to frame a new charter, while another amends
Article 10, Section 12, by exempting water debt and the assumed county debt in the case of St. Louis and the water
debt incurred in 1895 in the case of Kansas City in computing the indebtedness of those cities. Another adds a
new section to Article 10, known as Section 12a. This latter
amendment permits cities of not less than 2,000 inhabitants
nor more than 30,000 to issue bonds to an amount of 5% of
the value of taxable property in excess of the prescribed limit
of indebtedness, for the purpose of purchasing or constructing water works, electric or other light plants to be owned
by the city, provided that such increase be authorized by
two-tnirds of the voters at an election oalled for the pur-

St. Panl, Minn.— Bonds Invalid.
The State Supreme
Court on November 14 handed down a decision holding that
the issuance of the $99,000 Z%% armory bonds (sold last May

&

New

to Allen, Sand
Co.,
York City), would be illegal, as
the city has already put out bonds to the amount of 5% of its
assessed valuation, the limit imposed on cities framing their

own

charters by the Constitutional
