large influx of gold from abroad, and the disbursement of
$2,500,000 per week by the Treasury Department for bonds
purchased for the sinking fund, brought a large amount of
currency into use. During the month the amount of specie
imported at New York was about $16,000,000.
The rates of exchange stiffened up slightly in nominal
prices, and at times they appeared to be too high to warrant
the large imports of gold
but the firmness was more apparent than real. It was believed that a very considerable
export of securities was carried on, which accounted for
the balance in favor of the United States, as the merchan'
dise movement was not sufficient to account for it.
At the Stock Exchange business was large, with great
animation, and the general buoyancy had not been equaled

was made at the Board.
Total sales of leading stocks for the week ending Thursday,
and the range in prices tor the year 1879, and from Jan. 1, 1880,
to date, were as follows:
•

Railroad bonds have been very active at high prices. The
leading speculative bonds have kept pace with the stocks of their
respective coiqpanies, and rival them as favorites for speculative
transactions at the Board. The prices of old bonds are so high
that nearly everything of respectable stand bearing 6 per cent
interest is now advancing towards par, or even selling above that
figure.

Railroad and miscellaneous Stocks.
fhe stock market
has been quite irregular, with a pretty large volume of business.
On Monday, before the elections, confidence was well sustained
and prices of many stocks advanced. On Wednesday, when the
result was known, the market was also buoyant on large transactions.
But it was almost inevitable that after the elections were
over there should be a very coasiderable movement to realize by
many holders of stocks who could secure a handsome profit; and
such a movement actually taking place, -prices naturally gave
way on Thursday and this morning. This afternoon, however,
there was a sharp rally, and the closing prices were often near
the best of the day. Against the idea of any great collapse in
stocks under a bear attack, similar to that of November, 1879,
there now stands the almost unlimited confidence in the commercial prosperity of the country, and in the capacity of the
railroads to make large earnings. The practical result of this should
be to bring in strong purchasers of stocks on every decline which
seems to offer a fair profit. Tlie ways of cliques*, however, are
past finding out, and if the money market should work closely
and a bear combination should l)e foiined to l)uy in stocks at
lower figures before the end of the year, it is not impossible that
pnces cjuld be hammered down materially.

—

Among the State bonds Tennessees have been decidedly strong on the defeat of the repudiators' ticket in that State.
Virginias are also strong, and the
deferred certificates are dealt in on speculative account, and the
holders in London have just appointed a committee to endeavor
to get some recognition of these bonds. Louisiana bonds are
also strong.

Reading has been active and again advanced to-day above 50
New York Board, on the announcement that the American
committee appointed by the managers of the I^hiladelphia &
Reading Railroad Company to confer with the English interest is
as follows: Messrs. J. B. Lippincott, J. V. Williamson, Eckley P.
Coxe, H. Pratt McKean, Moses Taylor, or a representative he mayname, Charles H. Rogers, Isaac liinckley, Frederick Fraley and
Thomas Cochran. Pennsylvania Railroad is steady on the 4 per
cent semi-annual dividend. Among the stocks that have advanced
most is Central Pacific, and it is (j^uite possible that this company
or the Southern Pacific, which is nearly the same, may control
the Galveston Harrlsburg & San Antonio Road. In the two
Wabash stocks there has probably been as much disappointment
by purchasers for an advance as m any otherf, and the preferred
has fallen back about 4 per cent from the best price of the week.
The daily highest and lowest prices have been as follows:

American Union Telegraph. —The Baltimore & Ohio RailCompany took possession October 31 of the entire lines of
telegraph on its Pittsburg Division, which had previou-sly been
roacl

operated in connection with the Western

ville an(i

Cumberland.

This change adds about 500 miles of line and about fifty new
offices to the system of telegraph lines operated by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company and the American Union Telegraph Company, and opens to the important towns and vast
coke region along the Pittsburg & Connellsville Railroad the
benefits of the enterprise and cheap rates for telegraphing
offered by tho American Union Company, while it severs the
connection of the Western Union Telegraph Company with
these towns.
Atchison Topeka c& Santa Fe.— The statement of the Atchi•on Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad Company made to the New
York Stock Exchange makes exhibit of 885 miles of track in
Kansas, exclusive of side track ; 285 miles in Colorado, and 374
miles in New Mexico, reaching to San Marcial ; a total mileage
of 1,544. The capital stock is $25,000,000 ; the bonded debt as
5 per cent
follows 7 per cent first mortgage bonds, $7,041,000
bonds (secured by a corresponding amount of 7 per cent first
mortgage bonds on the New Mexico Si Southern Pacific Railroad^
$1,185,000 ; land grant bonds ^secured by a mortgage upon the
unsold lands of the company, comprising nearly 2,000,000 acres,
and the lands still held under contracts of-sale for more than

$2,000,000), $3,115,500
dated mortgage bonds (convertible into stock), $278,500 construction notes (due January 1, 1882), $78,000; currency and old

Atlantic Mississippi & Ohio.—The Richmond press dispatches October of 30 state that by order of the United States
Circuit Court the sale of the Atlantic Mississippi & Ohio Railroad, which was advertised to be made on Monday, has been
postponed until February 10, 1881. This became necessary in
consequence of the discovery that the proper notices of sale
required t)y the law of the State and by the decree of the Court
to be served on the Board of Public Works aud the AttorneyGreneral of Virginia had not been served, and the advertisement
had not been published as required by law.
Atlantic & Pacific— The Secretary of the Interior has
appointed A. B. Nichols (the engineer of the Bureau of Railroad Accounts), Hoyt Sherman, of Iowa, and J. B. Bloom, of
New York, as commissioners to examine the recently-completed portion of the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad from AlbuThe
querque fifty-two miles westward, in New Mexico.

terms not satisfactory to the latter company. Tlie roads have
been operated separately ever since, and, although both parties
were ready to admit the mutual advantages to both of a single
management in many respect,", they have till recently been unable to agree upon the terms of such single management. The
directors of the two corporations have now agreed upon the
basis of a lease by the Boston & Lowell of the Nashua & Lowell
road for one hundred years, at a rental of $60,000 per annum,

which is equivalent to 7?6 per cent upon the capital stock of
the leased road ; ibject, however, to ratification by the stockholders of both corporations, whowill meet on the 10th of
November next to act upon the subject.
"Very little doubt is entertained as to the action of the stockholders in both cases. The lessor party will get as rental a
little more than it has paid its stockholders the past year by
way of dividend (7 per cent), while the lessee company will not
only realize the full amount of rental from the earnings of the
leased road, but can operate the two roads together at a diminished cost, equal to at least one-fifth of the entire rental, thus
reducing the rental from 7>6 to 6 per cent, or thereabouts."

Morton, Rose& Co., with Morton. Bliss & Co. and Reinach &Co ,
the remaining fourth. A guarantee of $1,000,000 will be deposited
with the Government, to be forfeited should the syndicate fail
in its contrast. The Government hand over to the syndicate the
sections of the road already completed or in course of construction, the value of which, including the surveys, etc., is put
down at $30,000,000, and give them a cash subsidy of $25,000,000
and a land grant of 25,000,000 acres. The land is valued at $2
per acre, so that the gross subsidy, with completed sections,
represents the sum of $105,000,000. The road is to be completed
in ten years from Lake Nipissing, its eastern terminus, to
Buzzard Inlet, on the Pacific Coast
but there is a special
proviso that the prairie section, roughly speaking, 1,000 miles
in length, from Manitoba to the Rocky Mountains, shall be

and running within three years.
The syndicate will control the completed sections, run
them and be responsible for the running expenses until
the completion of the road in 1891, when the Government will take possession. It is provided that the syndicate shall make no pooling traffic or other arrangements with American roads without the consent of the Government, subject to ratification by the Dominion Parliament.

World, says " The arranffements with the Pacific
Railway Syndicate having been concluded by the Grovernraent,
the Dominion Parliament will meet on the first Thursday in
December to ratify the bargain." * * » " The arrangment
is still a state secret, but the following particulars may be relied upon
One division of the syndicate is composed of Canadian capitalists, the chief among them being Mr. Q-eorge
Stephen. President of the Bank of Montreal ; Mr. Angus, formerly Manager of that institution, and now General Manager of
the St. I'auf Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway ; Hon. Jfames
Cochran, the well-known Quebec cattle-breeder, and Mr. McIntyre, formerly a dry goods merchant in Montreal, and now
the controlling spirit of the Canada Central Railway, which
will be the Montreal branch of the Canadian Pacific llailway.
These gentlemen are the principal subscribers, but it is probable
that they represent others whose names will not be disclosed until
the company applies to Parliament for its charter. For instance,
it is understood that Messrs. Stephen and Angus represent
the interest of Mr. Donald A. Smith, formerly Chief Factor of
the Hudson Bay Company, and one of the wealthiest men in
the Dominion. Two years ago Messrs. Smith and Stephen
bought the St. Paul & Pacific Railway from the Dutch (Amsterdam) bondholders, and as it is the high road and gateway to
Manitoba, they have made enormous profits from the influx of
emigrants and. freight into that province. The English division
is limited to Morton, Rose & Co., the agents of the Dominion
Government in London. Sir John Rose, at one time Finance
Minister of Canada, was a member of that firm for many years,
but he withdrew from it some time ago, leaving his interest to
his son. Mr. Greeufell is the senior partner of the firm. The
American division is Morton, Bliss & Co., the New York branch
of Morton, Rose & Go. The French division is composed of
Reinaoh & Co., of Paris and Frankfort, and the Societe-Grenerale

Pennsylvania Railroad.— The dividend of this company
was declared at the meeting of the board on November 1. It is
a semi-annual dividend of 3 per cent, with the addition of a
special extra dividend of 1 per cent, making 4 per cent in all;
this plan apparently being adopted in order that the company
should not be fully committed to the policy of 4 per cent semiannual dividends. For the purpose of distributing a portion
of the shares purchased from the city of Philadelphia, the
option is given to the shareholders of accepting the extra dividend of 1 per cent in scrip, convertible into the stock of the
company at par when presented in sums of $50, provided the said
option shall be exercised on or before Dec. 21, 1880, after which
date all outstanding scrip will be paid in cash.

extend the line from Essex Junction to Burlington, and in 1858 the
charter was extended for five years, and in 1861 the extension to Burlington throngli the Tunnel was made, and the conuection with the Rutland road completed. In 1850 and '51 the Vermont & Canada leased
this road to the Vermont Central company. They were to operate it and
pay 8 per cent, on the cost of constriution. which was i?!, 348, 500, as
annual rental. The security for rental was the reserved right on the
Vermont & Canada company's part, in case of non-payment of rent, to
enter in possession of both the Central and Vermont & Canada roads,
and to operate the same till rent w;vs paid. The road frqm liuilington to
the middle of the channel at Rouse's Point, adistaiice of about forty-seven
miles, and a branch from Swanton Junction to the Vei-moiit & Canada
line, a distance of ten miles, constitute the Vermont & Canada road. In

THE CHRONJCLK.

6, 1880.1

1852 the Vcriiiout Central comi)any failed and surrendered tbe Vermont
Central and the Vermont & Canada roads to the trustee* of the first
morttrage bonds of the Vermont Central road.
In 18o4 these trustees failed, and on December 1, 1854, failed to pay
the six months' rent tlieu duo the Vermont & Canada Company. Tlie
Vermont cfe Canada Immediately commenced a suit In the Franklin
County Court and souxht to enforce the aKreemont by which it was to
occupy both roads till back rents wore paid. Upon thfs apidicathm the
property was ut into the hands of receivers. In 1854 tliey were exGovemor J. GrcKOry Smith, Joseph Clark and Lawrence Bralnard. The
right of the Vermont & Canada (Company was disputed by all the other
Sartlcs intercstiMl in it, onc^ of the reasons heinB that the charter of
10 Vemiont & Canada Company authorized that cornoratiou to operate
a railroad from House's I'olnt to BurllnKton only, and it was beyond the
capacity of that corporation to make a contract by which it might operate a railroad from Rouse's Point to Windsor, fhe amount of tha cost
of constructicm upon which the eight poi cent rental was to be paid was
also disputed. However, in 1 SHI, the Supreme Court of Vermont rendered a llual decision In that clause flxing the cost of coustructiou at
$I,3iS,500.
In 1864 the compromise decree was made. The effect and construction
of this is the one thing about which the parties Interested in the property have been iuvolved before the courts. It having been complicated
with questions arising out of the debt created by the managers under
the decree and floated by them on the Boston market. I'rom 1864 to
1871 the Swanton branch and Burlington branch were built and the
proportv improved by erection of depots, &c. To pay for this the capital
stock was increased $1.6.'il,r)00, making the capital $.'3,000,000. The
managers have further
improved the property, and have floated bonds
'
as follows:
$2,000,000
Equipment bonds
500,000
S. 8. & C. 78
Missisquoi
500,000
1,<X)0,000
Vermont <fc Can.ada guaranteed 88
Income and extension
1,000,000
i

1^5,000,000

In addition to this sum the management had a floating debt of
$2,800,000, upon which their notes went to protest in September, 1872.
In December. 1872. they failed to pay the semi-aunual rent of .$120,000
due the Vcriiioiit .fc r
ida Company. The Legislature of 1872 chartered the Central \'cniHmt Railroad Company with a view to organize
a corporation out of the ditterent securities whereby all the debt should
1)0 capitalized iuto stock of the new company.
In May. 1S7.), the Central Vermont Company organized with a cash
capital of $1,0U<),000— a ma,iority of which was subscribed by Duncau,
Sherman & Co., 'f rcnor \V. Park and other New York capitalists. There
was a clause in the Central Vermotit charter which provltled that nntil a
majority of th(^ first mortgage bonds of the Vermont Central road should
be retired under the new charter the Central Vermont Company iidght
operate the property temporarily under the orders of the Court of Chancery of Fr.aiiklin county. Availing themselves of this clause, application
was made to have the property temporarily intrusted to the Central Vermont Company, and on July J 1873, Chancellor Royce granted tbe ai>pUcation.
Tbe old question as to the relative rights of the Vermont & Canada comSany, as distinguished from the rights of the persons having the trust
ebts of almost .$8,000,000, was not determined, and has been since, in
one form or another, cimtinually before the courts, the Central Vermont
company retaining the possession for the past seven years. The opinion
of Judge Barrett in la77 has been claimed as a victory by both parties,
and now tbe expected decision by the Supreme Bench is quite currently
rejtorted to be in favor of the Central Vermont company. Tbe Vermont
& Canada stock In market has advanced, however, presumably by
,

speculators.

Tbe decision is a grave one and involves millions. Certain it is that
tbe present managers have one of tbe best roads in tbe country— steel
rails, Improved rolliug stock— and Vermonters were never so well served
as toi-day in railroad facilities.

President of the United States resulted in the choice of tha
Republican candidates. There will also probably be a Republican majority in the lower house of the next Congress, the
regular session of which begins more than one year hence.
Business has as yet hardly recovered from the interruption. No
new features are developed, but the indications are that trade
is being resumed on a scale of considerable importance.
There
have been slight flurries in the money market, with a tendency to advance rates.

appears to be an absence of speculative interest throughout the

In the preceding visible supply table we have heretofore only
included the int.etior stocks at the seven original interior towns.
As we did not have the record of the new interior towns for the
four years, we could not make a comparison in any other way
That difiiculty no longer exists, and we therefore make the following comparison, which includes the stocks at the nineteen
towns given weekly in our table of interior stocks instead of only
the old seven towns. We shall continue this double statement for
a time, but finaUjr shaU simply substitute the nineteen towns for
the seven towns
the preceding table.

GnNur Bags, Bagging, &c.— Bagging has shown no change,
and the demand has not increased. There is a moderate inquiry
for small parcels, and in the aggregate a fair quantity of goods
are reported as being disposed of but large lots cannot be
placed except at a low price. The market is steady as to price,
and holders are quoting 10c. for 1% lbs., lie. for 2 lbs. and
llM@12c. for standard grades. Butts have not been much inquired for, but there is a steady feeling in the market, and
quotations are 2%@3c., as to quality. The transactions for the

the close was more steady, owing to small receipts.
Indian corn was active and advancing. No. 2 mixed selling at
67%e. for December. Other grades are also firmer, with sales
of No. 2 white at 62c.; fair do., 58^c. Supplies have been
large, but the active demand and the confidence of holders
have cansed prices to imprsve. To-day there was a further
advance of He. for No. 3 mixed, with December delivery sold
