One important incident of the
week was the adoption by the French Ministry of
extreme measures in order to compel Turkey to comply with the demands of France for the adjustment of
certain claims of her citizens, settlements of which
had been promised by the Porte. A French fleet was
ordered to Turkey, and on Tuesday it arrived at the
Island of Mitylene for the purpose of seizing the Customs, and on Thursday the principal ports of that
island were occupied. The Porte thereupon complied
with the French demands to settle all monetary
claims and to give complete guaranties.

promptly absorbed in consequence of a more or less
urgent demand for the repayment of maturing sterling loans and also for remittance.
One noticeable
feature of the week was the liberal supply of cotton
billp, which appear to be coming forward in much
greater volume than has hitherto been the case.
One
of the largest dealers in commercial bills reported the
receipt this week of about £500,000 of cotton drafts,
and presumably other large dealers have received
equal amounts. Notwithstanding these large supplies, however, the inquiry for them is so urgent that
they are quickly absorbed and rates are well maintained.
The gold which went forward to Paris this
week appears to have been covered with bills upon
London which, as was noted last week, will be paid
on presentation with the proceeds of Paris exchange
on London. The shipment of $250,000 American
gold coin to the British capital was reported as a
special transaction.
It is presumed, however, that
the draft against this export will likewise be settled
with Paris exchange. The Asaay Office paid $1,261,-

945 52 for domestic bullion. Gold received at the
Custom House during the week $266,158.

Nominal rates for exchange are 4 84^ for sixty-day

On Wednesday, while long was unchanged,
short and cables fell off one-eighth of a cent, to 4 86^
@4 87 for the former and to 4 87^@4 87§ for the latter; the tone was, however, firm at the close and it so

Low's plurality of 4,300 in Manhattan and the Bronx,
and even Mr. Jerome's remarkable run of 17,000, fall
materially short of the plurality by which Mayor
Strong was elected in 1894. That candidate's victory
in old New York was won by a margin of 45,000 votes.
But 1894 was a year when the opposition party was
everywhere victorious, largely because of dissatis
faction prevalent over the hard times, the blame for
which, as usual, was laid by the general public on the
dominant party's shoulders. Such votes are in their
nature blind, or at all events so dependent on the
circumstances of the hour that they cannot be permanently relied on. In 1897, when the same conditions
no longer prevailed, the combined vote of Mr. Low
and General Tracy on Manhattan Island fell short

There remains only the decrease in the copper exports to consider.

(crude copper) being 48,214, against 52,629 tons in
the preceding fiscal year.
Mr. Austin carries his investigation a step further
and goes into an examination of the figures of production. He notes that the statistics with reference
to production in [other parts of the world seem to
strengthen the conclusion that European countries
are purchasing elsewhere at least a part of the supplies of copper which they formerly obtained from the
United States. The output of copper in Australia,
which, according to Merton & Co. of London, was
8,300 tons in 1889, was, according to Rothwell,
20,750 tons in 1899; Japan in 1889 15,000 tons,
in 1899 27,000 tons; Mexico in 1889 3,780 tons and
in 1899 19,000 tons, while the latest information
indicates that the copper mines of
Chili
are
rapidly augmenting their output. This increase in
production in other parts of the world, coupled with
the enlargement of the American production from
105,774 long tons in 1889 to 259,517 tons in 1899 and
270,600 tons in 1900, seems to have caused, Mr. Austin
naively remarks, a greater reduction in price in other
countries than in the United States. This is proven,
he goes on to show, not only by the fact that the
European countries have made a less reduction in
their purchases from those countries than in their imports from the United States, but also by the very remarkable fact that foreign copper is now actually invading the markets of the United States, the greatest
copper-producing country of the world. In the fiscal
year 1901 the imports of manufactured copper into
the United States amounted to about $10,000,000 in
value, and the total, including ore and regulus, was

While Lodz has to hold its own against the sharp

without any competition worth speaking of as far as
the manufacture of woolen goods is concerned; for

The clouds of smoke hovering over the city and the

often the most elementary conditions of hygiene and

The pood (37 lbs. English) of foreign cotton, almost

Nevertheless the American cotton still represents the

It is natural enough that in a city of such rapid

made to care for this large mass of laboring popula

The Government does everything to further this

Generally speaking, the crop is said to be a good

$1,307,200.

On Friday it was announced that James Stillman, President of the National City Bank, had been elected a director of
the National Citizens' Bank, located at 401 Broadway. As was
the case with the Butchers' & Drovers' Bank, interests identified with the National City have acquired a large amount of
the stock, sufficient at least to dictate the policy of the bank.
An increase of the capital, which now is $600,000, is contemplated, and probably further changes will soon be made
in the directorate. The President of the Citizens' is E. Fleitmann, the Vice-Presidents are David C. Tiebout and E. S.
Sohenck and the Cashier is Henry Dimse. The average deposits;reported last week were $3,828,400. The City Bank now
has controlling interests in the manner above stated through
individual stock holdings in the Second National, the Lincoln
National, the Columbia, the Metropolis, the Fidelity, the
Butchers' & Drovers' and the Citizens' banks. The importance of its acquisition of control of the Butchers' & Drovers'
and of the Citizens' lies in the fact that the banks are located
in an active business section of the city which is rapidly
growing.

—At a meeting of the Clearing

House Association on Monday the Seventh National Bank, as reorganized, was restored
to membership.

—

The increase in the capital stock of the New York
National Exchange Bank from $300,000 to $300,000 and of the
surplus to $250,000 has become effective, and the fact was
recorded in the bank statement of last week.

Clearings by Telegraph.— Sales of Stocks, Bonds, &c—
The subjoined table, covering clearings for the current week,
usually appears on the first page of the Chronicle, but on
account of the length of the other tables is crowded out
once a month. The figures are received by telegraph from
the leading cities. It will be observed that as compared with
the corresponding week of 1900 there is an increase in the
aggregate of 21-3 per cent. So far as the individual cities are
concerned, New York exhibits a gain of 23 "2 per cent, Boston

[From oar own correspondent.
London, Saturday, October 26, 1901.
The stagnation in business this week has been aggravated
by the withdrawals on the part of the great French banks of
some of the money they have been employing in London, by
large gold shipments to Germany, and by a fresh "break" in
the West Australian market. For some time past a general
strike in the coal trade in France has been threatened for
the second of November. A strike of the kind would affect
a large number of workpeople, and would throw out of gear
manufacturers all over the country; while at this season of
the year it would of course inflict suffering upon the poor;
but the mere prospect of a strike, however general, would
not have had the consequences that in this case have followed were it not that it has been discovered and made
known by the French Government that the miners, in one
district at all events, have been buying old Gras rifles which
have been discarded by the army; and the state of the
French law is euch that the Government is unable to prevent these purchases. The fear of armed resistance by the
miners created a scare, and although it is certain that they
could not hold out against the army, yet it is at least possi
ble that the disturbances might spread to other districts
where Socialism is strong.
In consequence of this the great French banks, which have
been employing vast amounts of money in London for the
past couple of years, thought it necessary to prepare in time
lest there should be a run on the deposits, and in consequence they have withdrawn a portion of their balances from

London.

The

has been heightened by the large gold
shipments to Germany. The general interpretation put upon
these shipments is that the banks everywhere throughout
the Empire fear that a great failure is impending and are
taking precautions accordingly. This is contradicted by those
in the best position to know, both in London and Berlin; but
the fear undoubtedly exists here in London and widely in
Germany. It is known that it does not pay as a mere exchange transaction to take the gold, even though it is certain
that the Imperial Bank of Germany is giving the usual
facilities for shipping it.
Lastly, there is an unexpected and considerable "break"
in the West Australian mining market. The manager of
one of the principal mines has for a year past been giving
most favorable reports, both of development and of the outturn. Suddenly, however, the mining engineer has written
to the directors in London that the development effected
does not justify the large output. Presumably the mining
engineer was acquainted with the reports which the manager
has been sending every fortnight for 12 months past, and it
is asked in consequence how it is that he has kept silent so
long or that he has now spoken out. The result is a fear
that a fresh scandal will be brought to light, and there has
been a general selling of West Australian mining shares of
effect of this

pecuniary assistance to several great firms to enable them to
keep their work-people employed.
Daring the week ended Wednesday night gold amounting
to £1,228,000 was withdrawn from the Bank of England, and
every day since withdrawals have continued. Yet the effect
upon the market has been surprisingly small. The Bank of
England has not taken strong measures to raise rates, and
money continues fairly abundant. There has been some
rise, but nevertheless rates are lower than either in Paris or
Berlin. Probably the directors of the Bank of England will
now begin to borrow in the open market for the purpose of
raising rates; and very soon it is expected that the Bank
minimum will be officially raised. A rise will become imperative if the great French banks continue withdrawing the
balances they have been employing here. Whether they will
do so depends of course upon the action of the miners. The

Government evidently thinks that there

is considerable
the press that military
arrangements have been completed for bringing to bear upon
the miners, if necessary, an overwhelming military force;
and the Prime Minister on the opening day of the session
announced that measures also had been taken for insuring
that, if a general strike did take place, coal would be safely
landed at all the ports.
The fact, however, that the Government is acting so firmly
may induce the miners to put off the strike. If so, confidence will soon return, and the amount of money employed
here by the French banks will again be increased. On the
other hand, if apprehension continues, money will be withdrawn and then the Bank of England will have to act. Respecting the gold shipments to Germany, although they are
so very large, little anxiety is felt, partly because it is known
that the withdrawals do not pay, and therefore it is anticipated that they will not continue for a long time; but that

whether anything serious is impending. In any event, it
looks most probable just now that an advance in rates here
must very soon take place.
Meantime the India Council continues to sell its drafts
fairly well. It offered for tender on Wednesday 50 lacs and the
applications exceeded 13 crores. The whole amount offered
for tender was disposed of at prices ranging from Is. 3 31-32d.
to Is. 4 1 32d. per rupee.

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.— The stock market
opened dull and weak on Monday, and so continued through
the day. Since the election holiday on Tuesday there has
been a decided improvement in volume of business as well
as prices, especially in the railway shares department.
Thursday's market was active and buoyant, led by New
York Central, Michigan Central and allied issues. Rutland
preferred advanced over 10 points on bids that brought out
only a limited number of shares. Union Pacific stock, as
well as bonds, was in request, about 400,000 shares having

the former fluctuating over a range of 5 points. St. Paul

Other granger stocks were strong, and almost the entire
railway list closes substantially higher than last week.

and New York Air Brake moved up 11 points. American
Sugar Refining was weak. Otherwise the industrial list
was generally dull and featureless.
Outcide Market.— The outside market was dull and weak
on Saturday and Monday, but following the holiday on
Tuesday (Election-day) the dealings increased in volume,
and the market closes to-day stronger and more active than
American Can stocks which on Monday
for some time.

sold down to 17 for common and 62% for preferred, the
lowest figures for these stocks since their initial appearance
on the curb, rose to 19% and 67% to-day and closed at 19%
and 66%. Standard Oil also recovered somewhat. It sold
up to 715 on Wednesday, dropped to 701 ex the 8 p. c. dividend, and to-day touched 710. The greatest gain for the
week is in Dominion Securities, which, closing last week at
84%, moved steadily upward, reaching 89% yesterday, with
the final sale to-day at 89%. Kansas City Ft. Sc. & Mem.
preferred advanced from 75% to 77 and the bonds from 85%
to 86%. St. Louis Transit moved from 28% to 30% and
United Railways of St. L. rose from 83% to 86%. The bonds
also went up from 89% to 91%. Seaboard Air Line securities, with more trading than usual, all advanced, and close
at 27% and 51% respectively for common and preferred and
86 and 101% for the 4s and 5s. International Salt & Mexican National issues have been very quiet. Copper stocks
manifested some activity during the latter part of the week,
with White Knob leading. This stock gained 5% points
and closes at 20%, after reaching 21% on Wednesday. New
issues quoted this week are the Realty Associates subscriptions at 105@110 (a $4,000,000, real estate, building and general construction and improvement corporation) and the
American Automatic Weighing Machine Company, the latter a consolidation of several weighing machine concerns.
The common stock, paying 3 p. c. dividends, was quoted at
30 bid and the preferred, which pays 6 p. c, was bid for at 75.

Street Railway Net Earnings.—The following table give*
the returns of Street railway gross and net earnings received
this week. In reporting these net earnings for the street
railways, we adopt the same plan as that for the steam
roads that is, we print each week all the returns received
that week, but once a month (on the third or the fourth
Saturday), we bring together all the roads furnishing returns, and the latest statement of this kind will be found
in the Chronicle of October 19, 1901. The next will appear In the issue of November 23, 1901.

consolidation the capital stock of the Rutland
Road has been increased to $8,768,700, but (preferred) stock
to the amount of $3,790,000 still remains in the treasury of
the Rutland Company.
Exchange of Common Stack. In the same Act the Legislature also granted authority to buy and cancel the common
stock of the Rutland Company. The directors accordingly
offered the common stockholders one share of preferred
stock for ten of common. Under this offer, $2,282,000 common stock has been surrendered and canceled and $228,200
of preferred stock has been issued in exchange. There is
now outstanding $211,400 of common stock, a large part of
which, if in existence at all, is in the hands of holders unknown to the officers of the company.
Changes in Balance Sheet. By reason of these consolidations, the mileage of the road has been increased from 136
miles to 360 miles, and its general balance sheet has been en
tirely changed, the obligations of the companies which have
been consolidated with the Rutland Railroad being assumed
by that company, and the properties, equipment and assets
also being taken over and all consolidated in one general
balance sheet. The issuing of preferred stock for the Rutland common stock, and Ogdensburg & Lake Champlain
common stock at the ratio of one share for ten, has operated
to reduce the total capitalization of the properties by $5,079,200, and a corresponding reduction has been made in the
consolidated construction account.
The account of equipment, which has appeared on the
balance sheets of the Rutland RR. Co. in former years, was
made when the property was leased to the Central Vermont
Company, to include, with the rolling stock,, rails, ties,
bridges, buildings, and like property, which was charged
against the Central Vermont Company. In consolidating the
accounts, a careful inventory and appraisal of the present
rolling stock has been made, and the rolling equipment account, as shown on the present balance sheet, gives the figures
of this appraisal. The difference between the equipment
account, as it appearea on the ledger, §2,749,617, and the
account of rolling equipment, as appraised, $1,584,866, has
been charged to profit and loss account.
Rutland Transit Co.— During the season of 1900 the gross
earnings of the Rutland Transit Co. were $377,534, contrasting with $352,727 in 1899, and the operating expenses
for the same period were $329,916 (including $30,0 15 for extraordinary repairs to the boats); net earnings, $47,619
[against §55,812 in 1899]. The stock and bonds of this company are the property of the Rutland RR. Co.
Traffic.-Ot the 1,572,050 tons carried in 1900-01 (603,122
originating en the Rrjtland RR. ), coal afforded 2409 per
cent, products of forest 22 99 per cent, grain, flour and mill
products 13-28 per cent, remainder miscellaneous.

says in substance:
Conneetion Between the Rutland and the OgdU nsburg (&
Lake Chum plain.— The Rutland-Canadian road wan, by
contract, to be completed on Oct. 1, 1899, and when it became apparent that the contractors were not intending to
complete the road last winter, it was deemed advisable to
take it over in its unfinished condition. This was done on
Oct. 12, 1900, and on Dec. 15 we were able to put our hrst
through traffic over it, although the ballasting was not completed until BpriDg. The unfinished condition of the road
necessitate small trains, and made the operation expensive.
That and the increase in the cost of coal and other supplies
has largely increased the cost of conducting transportation
during the past year. The traffic over the Rutland- Canadian
shows a satisfactory increase, and it is believed the result
will warrant the expenditure which has been made to
build it.
Improvements— New Equipments.— During the year, 35J^
miles of 60-pcund rails have been replaced by 80-pound
steel rails (4,485 tons), costing $96,517, and three wooden
bridges by steel structures costing $30,006.
The development of the company's business required the
purchase of additional freight cars, and 600 box cars of 60,000
pounds capacity and 250 double hopper coal cars of 80,000
pounds capacity have been added to the equipment. The
total amount of the purchase was $521,422, in settlement of
which the company paid cash, $76,422, and issued bonds,
upon the equipment purchased, for the balance, $445,000.
These bonds draw ±% per cent interest, and mature at the
rate of $33,000 per year. Practically all of our equipment is
now supplied with automatic couplers, and 50 per cent of the
rolling stock has been equipped with air brakes.
Consolidation.— Acting upon the authority granted the
Rutland Railroad Company by the Legislature of Vermont
at the session of 1900, the following subsidiary roads
were consolidated with the Rutland; their capital stocks,
being the amounts named below, were canceled, and preferred stock of the Rutland RR. to the total indicated was
issued in lieu thereof, viz.

C Report for the year ending June 30th, 1901.)
President F. B. Merrill says in substance nnder date of
Ang. 1, 1901
:

The gross earnings have increased about 25 per cent and the oper
ating expenses have decreased about 5 p»r cent, the percentage of
operating expenses to earnings being only 45*8 per oent, as against
t0'4 last year. The increased passenger earnings show conclusively
that the country is being settled and that we shall soon have a large
productive agricultural business to haud:e. One oompany alone has
set out during the past year 150,'>0u peach trees in one orchard and
proposes to set out another 100,000 trees the coming season.
The extension from Merrill to Hattieubnrg is now beiog constructed
and orders have been plaoed for new passenger equipment and shops
to be ereoted at Frasoatl, at which It is proposed to build our own
freight cars, and extensive Improvements are to be made to oar terminals at Choctaw Point in the way of increased yard facilities,
wharves, eto A large dredge has been purohased by the Gulf City
Construction Oo to dredge the slips and heads of the piers to be
erected to the 23-foot Government channel, and when these terminals
are completed we shall be in a position to handle any business which

may be offered.

(Report for the year ending June 30, 1901,)
The comparative tables of earnings and the balance sheet
were given in the Chronicle of Ang. 31, page 443. President Spencer says in part:
There has been no ohange during the year in the amount of capital
stook or funded debt outstanding. The total charges to capital aocount were $121,492, representiag the cost of loo coal cars and one
steam shovel. No charges were made to oapltal account for expenditure upon roadbed or structures. The reserve accounts for replacement and for maintenance appearing in the balauoe sheet are represented by cash on hand, reserved and held sepa ately from current
cash, to be used, when required, for th* purposes stated.
Equipment obligations were inourred during the year (eovenng in
part the eight locomotives oontraoied for in the previous year) in the
sum of $104, 9y6, and equipment obligations for $107,u52 were paid
and ohareed to reserve account for the replacement of roiling stook.
Total <-quipment obligations outstanding June 30, 19<>l, $17 1, 7 11. The
net changes In the equipment during the year consisted of an increase
of 2 locomotives and I road service oar, and a decrease of 75 freight
oars, the replacement of which has been fully provided for through
operating expenses. Contracts have been made during the year for 4
freight locomotives, 100 double- hopper coal cars and loo plain box
earn, which wl'l more than make good the deflolency stated.
The gradual improvements in the physical condition of the roadway
and equipment oontinue to show increased operating efficiency, as
will bo seen from the following statistics: The average number of oars
in each freight train inoreased from 2b- 17 in 1900 to 2*12 in 1901,
or 11'27 per oent. The average number of tons of freight io eaoh train,

Western Maryland RR.— Fepnrt of City Directors.— Resume of Amount Due Cily.—Tht Baltimore city directors.viz.:
Robert O. Davidson, W. T. Dixon, T. It. Clendlricn, Mantles Cohen,
John A. Tompkins, George R. Galther, F. A. Fumt, II. Irvine Keyser,
on Oct. 31 sent to Mayor Hayes their report regarding the
road, and in connection therewith furnished a ptatement of
the indebtedness of the road to the city. The report recommends that the city's advances for the payment of interest
and purchase of coupons, amounting to $3,920,676, be funded
into a preferred stock of the railroad company, and that the
interest on the advances, amounting to $3,53i,009 additional,
be funded into the common stock of the company. The alternative proposition of the directors is to sell the road at
public auction under the mortgage liens held by the city.
The report says in part
In view of the fact that the railroad company is now paying the current Interest on the several naort^aKe liens for which the city has Issued its storks and claims its ability to continue such payments in the
future in view, further, of tlin close relations which have always existed between the city and the railroad company and the great Interest taken by the citizens of Baltimore in the welfare of the Western
Maryland RR., your directors realize that some adjustment of the &«•
cumulated indebtedness for which the city has not issued its stock may
well be made at this time, more especially ae the aggn-ga T e amount of
the arrearage is more than the company can be expected to meet and
liquidate within any reasonable i>enod of time
would recommend, therefore, that this indebtedness as Btated be funded as to the
sums advanoed Into a preferred etock of the railroad company, and
that the Interest on the advances made from time to time as above
stated be funded into the common stock of the company.
The alternative proposition to this would seem to be a public sale of
the property under the mortgage liens held by the city. This might be
deemed an ungracious act on the part of the city of Baltimore.
It will doubtless be necessary, should this proposition to fund the
arrearage meet the approval of the Mayor and City Counoil, that
;

We

proper authority be obtained from the next Legislature authorizing
this proposed funding and issue of stock. V e believe that thus the
affairs of the city in connection with the road will be placed upon a
practical, business like basis, and if thlsplan be accepted, the relations
between the city and the railroad company will bee me of an entirely
satisfactory nature, and all agitation In regard to the sale of the property may be indefinitely deferred.

Speculation in cotton for future delivery has been fairly
active, but the tone of the market has been unsettled. Early
Killing frosts
in the week prices made a moderate advance.
were reported on Monday in the western section of the cotton
belt, with colder weather predicted for the Atlantic States.
The frost reports brought shorts into the market as moderately free buyers to cover tbeir contracts, and there also
was some new buying for investment account. Over the
holiday on Tuesday, however, there developed a weaker
undertone. European and Southern markets appeared to be
adversely influenced by a large crop estimate put out by a
widely-known crop estimator, but who in the past two
seasons has been radically wrong in his prognostications as
to the yield of the crop. The market again turned stronger
on Thursday. Liverpool advices came better than was generally expected, and it was reported that there was large
speculative buying for Continental account in that market.
The movement of the crop is receiving close attention from
the trade. Receipts for the week have been fairly heavy.
Advices from the South, however, indicate that the movement will be smaller, and this is having a favorable influence
upon the situation. To-day the market opened slightly
higher on stronger advices from Liverpool, reacted under
more favorable crop news from Texas, but again turned
steadier during the late trading, on buying by local shorts to
cover contracts. The close was very steady at a net advance
for the day of 1@6 points. Cotton on the spot has been quiet,
closing at 7 13-IGj. for middling uplands.
The rates on and off middling, as established Nov. 21, 1900,
by the Revision Committee, at whioh grades other than
middling may be delivered on oontract, are as follows,

has been very little
doing in jute bagging during the week under review, but
prices have been maintained. The close this eveniog is at
5%c for \% lbs. and 63. for 2 lbs., standard grades. (Jar lots
of standard brands are quoted at 5^@6^c., f. o. b., according to quality. Jute butts dull at 1%@\%g. for paper quality and 23£@2J£c. for bagging quality.
From Messrs. Ira A.
Kip
Co.'s circular we learn that the deliveries of jute butts

154 bales, against nil for the same month last year, and for
the ten months the deliveries reached 241,416 bales, against
236,258 bales in 1900. The aggregate stock in the hands of
importers and speculators at New York and Boston on October 31 was nil, against 100 bales at the corresponding date in
1900, and the amount afloat for the United States reaches
87,153 bales, against 32,950 bales last year.

Prices for wheat flour have continued to advance, following the upward course of values for the grain. At the higher

volume of business has been transacted locally, as buyers generally have been slow to follow
the rise. In the meantime, however, dealers' stocks are
being gradually depleted, and the undertone of the market
has held firm. Minneapolis advices have reported a large
business transacted in that market. Rye flour ha9 been in

Corn meal has been in moder-

Speculation in wheat for future delivery has been on a
fairly extensive scale and at advancing prices.
European
advices have been of a much more encouraging nature, the

markets abroad showing a firm undertone, with values working higher. There has been a fair amount of speculative
buying in the local and Western markets for European account, but thus far the actual export business transacted in
the spot market has been reported as only limited. Another
favorable factor has been the strength shown by the Northwestern markets, due, it is repDrted, to an active cash demand and a comparatively light movemant of the crop.
Much colder weather and enow has teen reported in the
Northwestern States, and this, it was generally believed, will
have a tendency to reduce the crop movement. Advices re
ceived from interior points say that where farmers have liberal supplies of wheat on hand, they are using it to feed to
their stock instead of carting it to market and bringing back
feeding stuff?, which are selling at high prices. Reports from
the winter-wheat belt state that the recent rains were beneficial, but that more moisture is needed.
To-day prices advanced on rumors of large export sales at interior points, but
the improvement was rot maintained. The spot markets
here and at outports were more active, fair sales being made
to exporters.

The movement

of the crop has been very moderate, receipts

Western points being light and country offerings have
been reported small. Recent estimates made public of the
total yield of the crop were 1,400,000,000 bushels and another
of 1,600,000,000 bushels. Kansas City has been a particularly strong market during the week, being considerably
above the Chicago market, and it is reported that Peoria
distillers have been buyers of corn in the Chicago market.
Exporters have been limited buyers in the spot market and
at advancing prices. Today there was a slight weakening
in prices, due to realizing sales by recent buyers.
The spot
market was firm but quiet.

has been a continued active demand in the cash market, with

The value of the New York exports for the year to date
has been $9,707,413 in 1901, against $12,066,361 in 1900.
Home buyers have adhered to a hand-to-mouth policy in
connection with brown sheetings and drills, while exporters
have generally contented themselves with making bids unpractically low. Prices are without quotable change, but at
the close there is slight irregularity in some quarters. The
market is firm for cotton duck and barely steady for osnaburgs. In bleached cottons the conditions are unchanged
from a week atjo. Only light orders are coming forward and
prices are steady. Wide sheetings are in limited supply and
firm. Danims continue scarce in all grades, with a moderate amount of business at firm prices.
In other coarse, colored cottons there is a firm market also. Cotton flannels
and blankets are very quiet.
The print cloth market has been quiet and price of regulars
has declined %c. wide odds are l-16c. lower. In prints all
lines of staples are firm, with a good demand for forward deliveries.
Fancy prints are sold up in dark work and new
spring lines are not yet shown. Fine printed and wovenpatterned wash fabrics are very firm, with a heavy business
done on spring account. The market for staple and dress
style ginghams is also firm, with a quist business doing.
Foreign Dry Goods.— There has been no new feature in
the market for foreign dress goods, a quiet business being
done at generally steady prices. Silks are firm but quiet.
Linens in moderate demand at full prices. Burlap3 inactive

There has been little alteration this week in the attitude of either buyers or sellers in the market. An
upward turn in cotton on Saturday and Monday last
caused a slightly firmer tone in some quarters where there
had been a disposition to meet buyers with small concessions,
but this has since disappeared with renewed weakness in the
staple. The holiday on Tuesday and the great interest taken
in the elections told upon the volume of business put through
and total results have been quite moderate. All danger of a
strike at Fall River has been removed this week by Mr.
Borden's announcement that on the 18th inst. he would reduce the wages in his mills 10 per cent, putting them back to
where they were before the first of the two recent advances
of 5 per cent each were given. The trade has been greatly
surprised by this action, and under it the market for print
cloths at Fall River has shown a decidedly weaker tone than
of late. Repoits from various jobbing centres show an average amount of business in progress in both seasonable goods
and specialties for spring.
Woolen Goods.—There has been a slight increase in the
demand for woolen and worsted trouserings and suitings
this week in both heavy-weights for quick consumption and
in light-weights for spring. There has not, however, been
any movement of moment in connection with the supplementary business in spring lines, and this is again a disappointing feature of the situation.

and the most important sale of the
just past was that of New York City, which
municipality on October 29 disposed of four issues of
largest

3$ per cent 40-year bonds, aggregating $3,600,000, to
the Central Realty Bond & Trust Co. and Lewisohn
Bros, of New York City at 107*21 an interest basis

—

of about 3*178 per cent.

note the varying rates at which
the bonds of this city have been placed during the
current year. In January a very low rate was obtained namely, 2*937 per cent a figure that has been
but rarely approached. In March the rate demanded
increased to 308^ per cent, while in May 3292 per
cent was the best terms which the city could obtain.
It is interesting to

—

—

In June the figures had fallen somewhat, to 3*22 per
cent, only to take a jump to 3*368 percent in September.
The recent sale, therefore, is 0*19 per cent better than that of the preceding sale and the best that
has occurred since March.

Another large issue of bonds was that put out by
the city of Allegheny on October 7, when $1,098,000
3£ per cents were sold on a 3*288 per cent basis to
N. W. Harris & Co., bankers, of New York and Chicago.

The number of municipalities emitting bonds and
the number of separate issues made during October 1901 were 144 and 172, respectively. This contrasts with 134 and 159 for September 1901 and with
121 and 148 for October 1900.

In the following table we give the prices which were
paid for October loans to the amount of $8,582,501,
issued by 105 municipalities.
The aggregate of sales

which no price has been reported is $1/196,696, and
the total bond sales for the month $9,779,197.
In
the case of each loan reference is made to the page of
the Chronicle where a full account of sale is given.
