[From onr own oorrespondent.J
London, Saturday, October 24, 1885.
The prospect of the final solution of the Eastern difficulty
seems to be as remote as ever at all events it cannot be said
that any distinct progress has been made in that direction
during the week. But although the delay is to be regretted,
it affords opportunity for the ultimate settlement of the dispute on such a basis as-shall not be easily upset. Whatever
arrangement may be come to should be lasting. The Burman
trouble has not entered upon any new phase. King Theebaw,
according to all accounts, retains his bellicose attitude, while
the Indian .Government is equally determined upon the matter being settled on its own lines.
The political position
generally cannot be said to have appreciably altered, at least
not in such a way as to influence commercial affairs.
Sanguine hopes as to the future are still being indulged in,
founded unquestionably on the more encouraging advices
from America, A feature of some significance is that the
demand for freights is looking up. But in spite of that fact,
and of the more hopeful tone now pervading most departments of industry, the evidences of an expansion of trade are
not very distinct. Liverpool seems to be the favored spot, but
we still look in vain for an increase in the goods receipts on
the leading railways. In place of an expansion, there is in
fact a contraction from the depressed totals of last year. The
Bankers' Clearing House returns, also, are quite capable of
amendment. All we can be sure of, therefore, is that satisfactory obanges are now going on across the Atlantic, of which we
receive almost daily telegraphic confirmation; and thit a continuance of the movement there must swell the volume of
trade here, and possibly by the new year it will have gained
sufficient force to admit of results being clearly estimated.
Attention has at length been directed to the continued
inquiry for gold for export, and the question is again being
discussed whether the Bank of England will not soon be compelled to adopt measures to prevent the stock of bullion being
much further reduced. In the present state of the commercial demand for money, however, such action is not easily
carried out. It is argued that the Bank of England should
reduce the heavy balances unemployed in the outside market
by borrowing on consols, and thereby causing the open market
and official quotations to approximate more closely. But such
a movement would be fictitious. Quotations for money cannot
be permanently enhanced until the incjuiry for it has increased
to a much greater extent than at present.
It is of course
imperative that the Bank of England should protect the bullion resources, and the directors may be trusted to do so; but
they can hardly, in fairnes?, be called upon to saddle themselves with heavy balances which there is no present chance of
using profitably. Were there any signs of financial disturbance in the near future, some display of energy might be
looked for but so far as can be ascertained there is no immediate prospect of the chronic quietness of the market being
upset. At present there is no inquiry for the metal from
America. The sums recently taken for the Continent about
£800,000 are no doubt in a great measure the result of the
political troubles in Eastern Europe, and must therefore be
looked upon in the light of exceptional transactions rather
than as ordinary exchange operations.
The demand for
money usual at this season may be expected soon to assert
itself, and between now and the close of the year some movement in the Bank of England rate of discount may be looked
for; but there are no signs of any tending excitement, or any
need to adopt more than ordinary means of precaution.
It is to be noted, in this connection, that during the past
two days some improvement has taken place in the demand
for money. Day-to-day loans, which were going begging at
per cent, and the discount
to
J^4 per cent, have risen to ^^
charge for three months' bills has risen from 1 to \% per cent.
Some rather important movements are noticed in the weekly
Bank of England return. The reserve has decreased to the
extent of £457,132, the amount being £11,701,167, or fully
£1,000,000 more than at this time last year.
The actual
decrease in bullion is £635,162, and the present supply of £30,920,972 is about £360,000 more than last year. This is a fairly
good total, but it will not bear drawing upon much further to
supply foreign requirements; and in the event of any important orders being received, the advisability of some advance in
the Bank rate will have to be considered. A decrease of
£1,626,000 in private deposits must be regarded in a favorable
light, as it shows some dispersion of balances; but the total is

There is a large class here who have had their income seriously

question that large supplies of money lying idle here would

The grain trade has been wanting in activity. During the
earlier days of the week there was some slight indication of
firmness, but it was not maintained. In spite of the unsettled,
and at times wintry, weather, wheat has shown signs of weakness, and had sales been forced, holders would have been
compelled to make some concession. The rumors of a threat-

The
nieetinfj;
Congres.s in December will now be the next event in the
political world, and since the silver question is likely to come
up for early discussion, the business community will watch with
some eagerness for any indications of the temi)er of the new
House of Representatives on this important subject.
The declaration of a 2 per cent semi-annual dividend by the
PenD»ylvania liailroad Company, instead of the regular 3 per
cent, was imquestionably a surprise to most of the .stockholders
and to the public. But it is to be remembered that the trunk
line earnings have not yet felt much benefit from the advance
in rates, and the Pennsylvania Railroad in reducing its
dividend is merely taking a step which the other trunk lines,
and for that matter most of the railroads of the country, wherever located, felt it incumbent to take some months ago.
On Thursday the presidents of the trunk line railroads met
to act on the agreement prepared for their signatures, and the
meeting was continued through Friday. The chief characteristic
was the spirit of amity and harmony that prevailed. The
agreement is necessarily long and elaborate, but it was taken up,
clause by clause, and it aoes not appear that any serious obstacles
were encountered. It provides for the appointment of various
committees, each having charge of certain special matters, and
supreme within its own department, and yet, in certain circumstances, having the right of appeal to the next higher committee, and so on, till the central body the presidents and the
arbitrator is reached.
But this latter body it is not contemplated shall be called upon except in extreme cases. The
agreement covers both east-bound and west-bound business,
and both freight and passengers, and the parties to it are to
deposit a stated sum of money with the Commissioner, out of
which the latter is to pay any tines imposed for violation of the
compact. Perhaps the most important feature of the plan is
that each line is to be made responsible for the action of its
Western connections. These latter are to have representation
on the Joint Committee, but the appeal will be to the Executive
Committee, composed of trunk-line representatives alone, thus
placing the trunk lines in full control of the situation.
At the Stock Exchange the strength of the market continues
unabated. Indeed, there is great buoyancy and enthusiasm to
the upward movement, with the advance in prices almost
phenomenal. Special prominence has this week been given to
the stocks of the granger roads, particularly Chicago Milwaukee
St. Paul, which is up 6 points, and one reason for this is the
splendiu record of earnings which the road makes for the
fourth week and month of October.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have had an extreme range of 1@10
per cent, though the ruling rates have been 2@3 percent;
to-day the rates were 2 J@3 per cent. Prime commercial paper
is quoted at 4@4^ p. c.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed
a loss in specie of £110,134, and the percentage of reserve to
liabilities was 38 13-16, against 39 3-16 last week; the discount
jate remains at 2 per cent.
The Bank of France gained
4,410,000 francs in gold and 1,073,000 francs in silver.
The following table shows the changes from the previous
week and a comparison with the two preceding years in the
averages of the New York Clearing House banks.

Railroad and Miscellaneons Stocks. That the movement toward higher prices was not yet at an end was amply demonstrated this week, when the market again became active
and very buoyant, most of the leading stocks advancing sharply
and touching the highest figures for the year. The week
opened on Saturday (Oct. 31), with a strong market, and the
tendency continued upward, with only small and unimportant
reactions until Wednesday afternoon (Tuesday being a holiday)
when there was a sharp decline, due to realizing sales and a
raid by room traders and the bears, the result being that the
whole market went down several points. This weakness did
not last long, however, and on Thursday prices were once
more buoyant and went higher than before, the feature being
an active and widely fluctuating market.
As has been the case for some time past, the changes in the
chiefly of a revival of speculative confidence; yet there are increased indications of improvement in
railroad business, and the earnings of some of the imjKirtant
systems, especially those in the Northwest, show gratifying
gains, and this has had its influence on the market by
stimulating the rise in the granger stocks, among which St.
Paul has l)een the feature, having risen 7 points during the
week, to 954 (closing at 044), and exhibiting a marked Aefrtt»
market were the result
Another imjiortant favorable feature, of course,
of strength.
was the meeting of the trunk-line presidents and the practical
accomplishment of the new pooling agreement between the
trunk-line roads.
To-day (Friday) the market was active and unsettled, opening strong but afterward reacting, with the olose ratlicr weak.

The President remarks: "The loss of gross business, the
figures indicate, was experienced in July and August.
These months heretofore have given the company much business in the movement of wheat, while .this year we did not
move a car-load during this same time. 'We have a good crop
on our line, which will be moved during the fall, and our fall
months will gain what we lost in the summer months.
"Since the last report the completion of the great and
magnificent bridge spanning the Ohio, and connecting the
rails of this company with the L. & N. R. R., has occurred.
The bridge was opened in July for business, and we expect
therefrom a large increase of traffic, both freight and pas-

Evansville, Ind.— At Indianapolis, Nov. 3, in the Federal
Court, Judge Wood gave an important ruling on the Evansville bond cases.
At various times during the last fifteen
years the city issued bonds to aid in the building of railroads,
wharves and other improvements, and also redemption bonds,
the total amount of them being about $1,500,000, which, in
addition to the accrued interest, now amounts to about
$1,800,000. The interest was paid regularly for ten years, up
to 1883, when further payment was refused and suit brought
on the railroad bonds to enforce it. Payment was resisted on
the grounds, first, that the railway company was a foreign corporation; second, that the road did not reach Evans ville ; and
third, that the subscription was not made in accordance with
law. The Judge overruled all these points, and decided against
the city. The amount involved is about $1,075,000. These
decisions are on demurrers which involve the real issues. Their
effect is that the city must pay the interest on her bonds and
the bonds themselves.

New York Central— West Shore.— At a special meeting o

New England.—At
Hartford, Conn., Nov. 3,
of the United States Court,
handed down an
order authorizing the New York and New England Railroad
Company to issue not to exceed $2,000,000 of preferred stock
at par, the proceeds to go to C. P. Clark, Receiver, and be by
him paid to such creditors as the company may direct, the
company having the right to give preference to certain creditors.
The court also permits the receiver to deliver to the
company as many of its second mortgage bonds as it may
desire to issue, in settlement of its debt.
In Boston, Nov. 4, in the Supreme Court, proceedings were
instituted by a stockholder to enjoin the issue of preferred
stock to creditors, on the ground that such issue would be

30.
A synopsis of it has appeared in some of the Philadelphia
papers, but has not been officially corroborated. "When the
plan IS decided upon by the trustees we will publish it.
The Philadelphia Press of Nov. 5 says: "The reconstruction
trustees of the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad are nonplussed.
They have worked on a plan of reorganization for
weeks, and now are fain to confess that the effort to harmonize all interests and care for all classes of investments has
proven a f ailurn. Yesterday, to large holders of the various
securities, a brief of tlie plan was exhibited, inspection asked
and criticism invited, and in every case, it is authoritatively
stated, ti e scheme was condemned and epitomized as absolutely hopeless of acceptance and consequent success."
Up to October 30 the petitions to thf trustees of the general income and consolidated mortgage bonds, asking fcr foreclosure, if the plan of reorganization is not acceptable, had
been signed by holders representing $4,240,000 of the general
bonds, $1,110,000 incomes and |I, 600,000 consol. bonds.

further and material decline in prices. The comparatively
low figures which were reached at the close of our last did
not develop confidence. There was, however, from prudential considerations, some covering of contracts, and some
growth of opinion that values had pretty nearly " touched
bottom."
This derived some support .from the Manchester advices, and rather unfavorable weather for picking,
which has been reported from ditf<>rent parts of the
South from day to day. Yesterday a lower opening was followed by an irregular closing, the distant deliveries showing
more strength. To-day an early decline to the lowest figures
of the season, under weak Liverpool advices, was followed by
a partial recovery on a demand to cover contracts; but there
was a quiet closing. Cotton on the spot has continued dull
and prices have declined. Quotations were reduced 1^0. on
Saturday and again on Wednesday. To-day the market was
quiet and unchanged at 9?^c. for middling uplands.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 485,800
bales.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
for export, 1,523 for consumption)
1,523 bales, including
