Speculation has been more active on the Stock Exchange in this city, and the dealings on the Cotton and Produce Exchanges have lieen heavier than they were in the previous week. Instituting comparison with the corresponding period of 1888, it is seen that there i« a gain at New York of 14-2 per cent, and that in the whole country the increase reacnes 10'3 per cent., the excess outside of "New York being 3-4 per Eliminating exchanges due to share operations from cent. the New York totals in each year, we find that the clearings in this city due to other business this year are $547,475,374, and that they exliibit an increase over like figures for 1888 of 0-5 per cent. Tiiirteen cities record losses from the week of last year, but aside from those at Duluth, Los Angeles, Norfolk and St. Joseph, they are unimportant. On the other hand heavy gains are exhibited at Fort Worth, Galveston, Dallas, Des Moines, Columbus, Denver, Louisville and Wichita. WILIilAOT B.

New York The weekly bank clearmgs at New York and other cities are made up by the various clearing houses each Saturday noon. That fact makes it imposssible for us to cover the current Salen week's returns, as we go to press Friday night; so to keep the record accurate we are compelled to give the figures of the previous Saturday in the detailed statement, which is the second table of this article. At the same time, that our readers may gain some idea of the current week's lousiness, we obtain each Friday by telegrapli the clearings for five days of six of the more important clearing houses, which together with New York figures make up about 89 per cent of the total for all the clearing houses for the same five days included in the full statement. To this we add in a lump the returns for the other cities (which average only about 11 per cent of the whole) for the same five days o.f the previous week, and that gives us a five-day total which must be substantially correct for the whole country. For the sixth day, to bring the statement up to a full week's operations, we add about one-fifth of the previous total, making allowance only when the transactions at the New York Stock Exchange are alwve or below the average. The final result is an approximate statement of what the full six days' clearings for the whole country will aggregate when tlie week's statement is made up Saturday noon. Prepared in this manner it will be seen, accordfng to the table which follows, that the clearings for the five days have been in the whole country $909,3-11,317 this week against $801,446,687 last year and adding about a fifth to each of these for the additional day tlie return for tlie wliole country for the week ending to-day at noon is approximately $1,237,439,869, against $1,085,125,544 the corresponding week last year.

The mere fact that these banks have encroached on their surplus, would be a matter of no great moment, for maturing loans would speedily make the loss good, were it not that there has continued to be a free and active demand upon them from the interior and fi'om so many dif- ferent points moving for amounts, cotton more rapidly than a year ago, while each of these products has been produced in excess of 1888; besides all this, business and speculation are both everywhere very active, as our exchanges clearly show. surely can surprise no one that the interior continues heavy.

At Paris the open market rate is 2f @3 per cent, at Berlin 4^ per cent, and at Frankfort 4| per cent. The Bank of France reports a loss of £305,000 gold this week. Our foreign exchange market has ruled dull and heavy all the week, gradually falling since our last one cent per pound sterling. This decline has been duo to a free outpouring of commercial bills (chiefly drawn against cotton), which has been induced by dear rates for money.

The Reading was a comparatively small system and very compact in form. The Atchison, on the other hand, stretches half way across the Continent and comprises over 7,700 miles of road. With its extreme nortiiera and eastern terminus at Chicago on Lake Michigan, we find it extending west to the Pacific Ocean in the one direction and south to the Gulf of Mexico in the other, and ing and if this covers a great variety of having also a fork or division running through the Control of northern part of the Mexican Republic. this vast mileage is held in a great many ways, both direct and indirect, and the various pieces forming the system are as different in earning and traffic contributing power, and hence in value and usefulness, as they are wide apart in location. The problem was how to deal with this great mass and variety of securities and this extensive and varying mileage, so as to be just to each, while promoting the all. In that endeavor we think the management have been very successful, though it were too much not to expect some dissatisfaction by special interests. One very simple method of reorganization would have been to go to default, lop off the unprofitable pieces, and reorganize with the rest. If there had been an absence of scruples, that plan would no doubt have interests of ment really quite ingenious, possessing a degree of is merit which could hardly have been obtained in any The difference in the standing and other way. character »f the various securities is of course made for it in the apportionment of the relative amount of 1st mortgage and income bonds to be allotted in each case. That is clearly recognized, provision being to say, a superior lien new is given its quota of securities mortgage bonds on which the payment of interest is certain, while an inferior lien gets mostly income bonds on which interest will be paid only if earned. Thus take the Atchison 1st 7s. A holder of ^1,000 of these will get $1,100 of new 4s and $520 of income 5s. On the other hand, a holder of $1,000 Gulf Colorado & Santa Fe 2d 6s will receive only $300 in new In each case the total interest 4s and $960 in incomes. $70 per annum on the is the same as it was before firsts and $60 per annum on the Gulf seconds but of the former amount only $26 is made contingent upon earnings, while of the latter amount $48 is made so contingent. The principle is an eminently fair one, and the' only question any security holder can raise ig whether it has been justly and impartially applied. After a close study of the details, we are of the opinion that very little fault will be or can be found with it on chiefly iu the first — — that score. But what position charges under the company hold as respects new arrangement? That question will the suggests that though the method adopted was simple, the work of the management waa far from easy.

For the eight months of 1889, ending with August, net earnings show an improvement over the corresponding period last year of $714,559, and the prospect is for further gains. There would seem no reason to doubt, therefore, that the present earning capacity of the property is at its lowest and answer is, that they will get, in the first place, a longtime security in place of only a short-date one. Then they will get a lien covering the entire property (includ ing the equipment), instead of a lien covering only a part of it, and the issue will be a large one, by reason of which facts it will have a wider and better market than any small divisional mortgage ever could have, no matter how well secured. Finally, an additional in- ducement is offered in the fact that holders receive amply sufficient to provide for the obligatory charges a greater amount of new securities than their holdings of the old, the income bonds being on the new basis. At the same time the total of all charges (supposing given as compensation for the reduction of obligatory Of course, there is a possibility that a small full interest paid at 5 per cent on 80 millions of in- interest. comes) is very little greater than at present.

Neither Middle Western points nor the Northwestern spring wheat markets particialso chiefly pated in the enlarged movement — in fact some of them compared with 1888. Chicago had, too, heavier receipts of live stock and provisions. On the other hand, in the South the cotton movement as reflected in the receipts at the ports and the shipments overland, did not equal that of the previous year, though it will be understood that the staple forms but suffered a reduction as a small part of the business at that season of the year. and the In order to furnish a comparison between the results circumstance is one that should not be lost sight of. for August and the mouths preceding, we annex the Yet it has less bearing in interpreting the Augiist following summary.

In from a reduced ratio of expenses. The proportion of the case of the Pennsylvania (Eastern lines) the net expenses to earnings for August, 1889, is only 59-84 per has increased 1483,051, and this follows not a decrease cent, while for August, 1888, it is 64*07 per cent. Or but a gain last year. The Burlington & Quincy has an to put it in another way, with an increase in gross earn- increase of $457,180, with $86^140 more on the lines ings of $5,015,227, expenses were added to in amount controlled, being very much more than what the road of only $908,354, leaving the gain in net $4,106,873, as lost last year, though it had also lost heavily in the already stated. And the same feature was also observed year preceding. The Union Pacific, counting all the in the July tabulations. It is known of course that lines owned or controlled (including the Oregon Bailrailroad managers are practicing economy wherever pos- way & Navigation, which reports a loss of $96,469) sible, but is the lower basis of expenses entirely due to shows an increase of $265,549; the Southern Pacific that fact ? Is there any reason to apprehend that the system treated in the same way has a gain of $256,748, roads are economizing too much that is, allowing the and the Atchison lines a gain of 1265,397. These condition and standard of their properties to deterior- three systems all had larger or smaller decreases in ate ? That question can only be intelligently answered August, 1888. On the other hand, both the Canadian by taking the present comparison in conjunction with Pacific and the Northern Pacific had small gains last the comparison disclosed in our exhibit for August last year, and yet the one reports an increase now of $243,year. In this way we find that the one explains the 056 and the other an increase of $318,717. Down in other. Thus the loss of $720,876 in that month in the South, the Louisville & Nashville has improved ii 1888, already referred to, resulted entirely from a very net $242,011, which is nearly four times the amount oi heavy augmentation in expenses, the gross then having its last year's loss in the same month.

The Brazilian Government is anxious to carry through this reform quickly, and nobody knows therefore how much gold it will require within the present year.

Meantime the market for Argentine seciu-ities continues wonderf«Uly steady. It is evident from the fluctuations in the gold premium that confidence at home has not been restored, and it is diflicult to see how a crisis can be avoided, esiiecially as the indebtedness of tlie owners of houses and lands is enormous, and the speculation in them has been carried beyond all boiuute.

Situation. The Stock Exchange markets have been (juite irregular the past The money market has again worked closely, and week. there have been important events which liiul a direct bearing upon the values of certain stocks chief among these events Ix'iiig the issue of the Atchison plan and the Northern Pacific election and partial change of management. The Drincipal sensation was, of course, the famous Atchison plan, which came out on Tuesday, and Las certainly been received with much favor, when we consider the many and diverse interests to be satisfied. There is one argument in regard to the exchange of bonds which is forcible throughout the list of s?curities affected, and that is that the market price of the new fours and new incomes to be given will probably I)e high enough to enable the present holders in nearly every case to realize and get as much in cash as their holdings are now worth or likely to be worth in the future. In other words, going right to the point of the matter, every holder can probably get more by accepting the plan than he could possibly get by rejecting it. If the project goes right on to sjieedy completion, as now seems lisely, the Atchison stock will be removed as an incubus from our market, over which it has hung with ever threatening aspect since it touched the high-water mark of recent years at llOJg in June, 1887. The Northern Pacific election removes another uncertainty from the market (uncertanities are the bane of healthy stock operations), and places this very important company fully under the control of Mr. ViUard and his associates. The money question is always one in regard to which it is difficult to predict with safety, but it seems highly probable that the rates now i-uling will draw funds towards this centre if they keep up. With any reasonable assurance of a good supply of money at rates not over 6 per cent, and with the prosjject for activity in railroad freight, and in general business, the outlook seems to favor a strong market in the long run, provided we have no clouds looming up in the financial horizon, of which there is at the present moment no outward paper isquctedat Day, rrlme hankers' sterling bills on London..

In railroad bonds there has been little feature. Business has generally been moderately active and well distributed but the changes in prices have not been great in most i.istances. The Gulf Colorado & Santa Fe and Atlantic & Pacific bonds have recovered somewhat since the publication of the Atchison plan of reorganization. ; ; ; — Kailroad and .Miscellaneous Stocks. With only a moderate business the stock market has continued irregular and some- what erratic in its movements. There have been wide fluctuations in a few stocks subject to sjieculative influences, but there has been little news of a general character, the depression, wherever it has occurred, beiiig chiefly traceable to special causes or to bear pressure, 'nght money has again helped the bear side, and this, in the absence of any active bull movement and with the downward turn in certain specialties, has given rather an appearance of weakness to the market. Tlie Atcliison plan, which was published early in the week, has naturally attracted a great deal of attention, and on the whole has been well received. The stock advanced on its issue, and has held its pi-ice with much steadiness, as there is great satisfaction that no cash assessment is forced on the stockholders. The rights to subscribe to new bonds sold first at J^. and were tlien advanced to Jg, but have reacted a little. The grangers have been rather weak and unsettled, led by Burlington & Quincy and St. Paul, though there has been nothing in particular to account for their decline, except perhaps the bearishness of the Chicago operators. Quite suddenly and unexpectedly Northern Pacific preferred developed great weakness on Tliursday, declining to 71 J^. This was the more surprising from the fact that the meeting resulted, as expected, in a complete victory for Mr. Villard, and a resolution was adopted recommending the Directors to pay as soon as possible all that new is stock under the due to the preferred was that the financial plan. The theory of the Street decline resulted from the selling by parties who were dissatisfied with the change to-day the price recovered and closed at 733^. Another weak stock was Missouri Pacific, which declined on large sales to 68)^. but with some recovery afterward. Among the coalers, Lackawanna has been active and Reading moderately so, with the tendency downward in 8ymi>athy with other leading stocks. On the other hand, a few specialties have been quite strong Chios at times, including C. C. C. St. L., the Chesapeake and Manhattan Elevated, and to-day, Friday, there was a better tone all around, the market closing dull but strong. The Trust stocks have continued to attract a go<id deal of attention, and dealings in Sugar and Cotton-Oil have Ijeen veiy heavy. Rumors have been plenty, though de inite information 18 not obtainable. In the case" of Sugar Trust, which declined over 10 points, to 72V^, it was rumored that a large amount of stock had been sold by an insider; the price recovered and closed at 78 to-day. Cotton-Oil has also been weak, though not as low as in the previous week. ; & & THE CHRONICLE. 492 STOCKS—PRICES AT STOCK EXCHANGE FOR WEEK EVDINU N. T.

The plan of re-organization for this company was issued by the managers on T".— i-.v ^nil it is safe to say that no railroad document more sh ,tt the same lime more comprehensive has ever b<' th. Comments upon tlio scheme w ill te found in the editorial columns of the Chbonicle, and the plan itaelf is given at length on sulise<iuent pages. A few leading ]M>ints in regard to the Atchison's proposal are worthy of brief mention, and in the first place it does not appear that it would be for the interest of any class of bondholders to refuse the terms offered them and take their chances in a general disintegm'iorr and bankruptcy x>t the system. Even the holders of the old first mortgage 7 per cents, whose position is strongest, will receive bonda which on a low estimate of market values will probably sell for more than their present bonds. A second point of great importance is the fact that there is no assessment on the stock not that the stock is unduly favored, since all the new income bonds are placed ahead of it but that such stock assessments are almost invariably apj)lied to paying off in full the floating obligations run up by the Directors and for which the notes are usually held by themselves or their friends. The new four i — per cents will be strict gold bonds. There was in 1886 and 1887 an undue extension of the Atchison system by an over-sanguine management, but from the time that earnings began to fall off and all through the dark days of 1888 the holders of stock and bonds were fairly and honorably dealt with, and the great decline in net earnings was faithfully given out from mouth to month. Then the bankers and f rioiids of the company stepped in and advanced $10,000,000 ou second mortgage notes to meet the interest payments in full, until it should be demonstrated that the company certainly could not earn its charges. Upon the whole, there seems to be every reason why the plan should be quickly accepted by stock and tend holders; first, because they will get more than they could by any other means, and, secondly, because they have every reason to believe that the managers will thoroughly keep faith with them and endeavor to protect their interests. « liicago St. Panl & Kansas Citjr.— Holders of about four millions of bonds ha'-e so far sent in their assent to the plan recently formulated. Messrs. Pemter & Boyle, of Loudon, imder date of Sept. 18th. w rite, in reference to the Minnesota & Northwestern bonds, that they have further considereil the position of affaire, and have had the opportunity of examining the trust deed, and after communication with a number of bondholders, have come to the conclusion that the interests as well as the legal rights of all concerned will be best served by theu- assenting to the scheme proiwsed by the company and recommended by Messrs, R, Benson & Co,, endorsed as it is by Messrs, Hope of Amsterdam, Nashville Chattanooga & St. T.onis Railway.—The gross and net earnings and charges for September, and for the three months of tlie fiscal year, were as follows : StpUr.itter. , 1889, 1888, $30t',2i 9 1 72.1 67 $271 178 $108,3.50 lujproveuieuts $128,141 72.270 7,867 $78,.'>12 Surplus $8 ,138 .$18,003 Gross earnings .

The litigation in which the company was interested has progressed satisfactorily. As the result of the suits to ascertain the amount of equipment to which tills company is entitled, it has obtained jjossession of a large numter of cars and locomotives, the estimated aggregate value of which is about §400,000, more than is needed for its use, and some of them will be sold and the proceeds applied to betterments. The Master in Chancery has reported the amount due this company from the Wabash for equipment to be $68,126. " In the suit of the Trustee, under the Omaha Division mortgage, for the recovery of $223,075 as rental for the use of the division while in the hands of the Waba.sh receivers, namely, frou Octoter t, 1884, to March 6, 1886, Judge Brewer has recently awardcil the Company $16,765 as rental for a small i)ortion of that period, but has distllowed the balance of the claim.

It is well known to you th^t the property of the Atchison Company is situated in many different States and Territories, and that the system is, in fact, a combination, more or less close, of various railway and other companies intended to contribute, directly or indirectly, to the resources of the one main and controlling corporation. It has been the object of your Directors to connect the separate properties more closely than before, so as to facilitate the introduction of economies in working them, to consolidate the system and make the whole more valuable, and, with the judicious expanditure of new capital for the repair, improvement and completion of the properties, to secure an increase in gross and net earnings to the Company at a miniof expense of operations.

In forming the bases for the scales of the various bond issues under the projwsed exchange, your Directors have given careful consideration to all interests and they believe that they are now able to present the matter in a manner which treats all holders equitably. They assure you that they are assiduously and so far successfully engaged in carrying out judicious economies and arrangements for development of business, and they confidently appeal to the holders of all classes of securities to come forward at this crisis and protect their property from the disaster of disintegration and brinkruptcy. They therefore beg to call your attention to the Plan of Rr-oroanization as hereinafter explained to you in detail, and (hey feel it necessary to state in the strongest terms tliat the non-success of this proposal will inevitably result in foreclosure with all its attendant misfortunes.

The Oorara districts are now In tlrst-rate onlor, anil the one district that complained of too much rain last we^k has now the weather tlie crops require, and the whole of the Oomra crop could not be better than at, prcs'-nt. Broach continues to send favorable reports, and the plants are in cool condlilon and growing well. Dhollora districts: Tlie required change the w<'ather has taken place, and Bhownne-g. r and Wudwan both got rain. More rain is still needed about Bbowntigger, and although the plants are strong and healiliy, yet more moisture is re<iuired to nake the crop safe. The Bengal crop Is progressing f.vorably. Taking the vailoU'i districts all round, the general cnditlon Is very favorable, and should we get a contiimanee of as favtral.le weather as hitherto, a large and good yield should result. m Jute Butts, Baooino, &c.— There has been a fair demand for bagging since our last report, and the market is firm in tone, with sellers quoting 8%(a 10%c. as to quality. Only a light inquiry is reported for jute butts, and beyond a few jobbing transactions we hear of no business. Piices are nominal at l-TOcglp.^c. for pajxir grades and 2*2Mc. for bagging quality. Shippino News.— The exports of cotton from the United States the past week, as per latest mail returns, have reached 147,316 bales. So faras the Southern ports are coccerned. these are the same exports reported by telegraph and published in the CnwjNiCLE last Friday.

Business in the wholesale branches of th j trade was fully is usually witnessed at this stage of the season, the activity of the distributing trade in the interior having been reflected in the numerous re-orders for fall and winter goods which were received by mail and telegraph. The outcome of the fall businf 33 has been so satisfactory to jobbers through. out the country that they are making liberal provision for next season, and very good orders for certain spring and as good as summer fabrics were placed (for later delivery) with domestic commission houses and importers. The jobbing trade was only moderate as regards transactions with buyers on the spot, but the order demand by mail and wire was of very fai^ proportions. An event of the week was the failure of the large jobbing and retail house of Lessing, Solomon, Rosenthal & Ck),, Waco, Texas, with liabilities approximating one million dollars.

At first hands the demand for staple cotton goods was characterized by a good deal of irregularity, but a fair business was done in Pome descriptions, and the tone of the general market continues steady. Operations on the part of jobbers were seemingly gauged by immediate requiremeifte, but converters and cutters were freer buyers, and the export demand was better than of late. Fine yarn brown sheetings were in fair request, but coarse yarn goods ruled quiet. Bleached shirtings, cambrics, wide sheetings, cotton flannels, corset jeans and satteens were taken in relatively small parcels to a fair amount, and napped fancy domets continued active, while there was a somewhat improved business in certain makes of colored cottons. White goods were in good demand, and there was an active businesa in some sorts of patterned fabrics for next spring, as fine sateens, ginghams and other woven wash fabrics, challies, lawns, &c. Print cloths were in fair demand, and the market closed steady at 3J^c. for 64x64 " spots" and 3@3 l-16c. for 56x608. 1889. 1888, 1887. 1886. Oel. 12. Oct. 13. Off. 15.

Prices of imported goods are generally firm both here and at the sources of supply abroid, a sharp advance in some sorts of raw materials as mohair and alpaca wools in particular having caused importers to decline further orders save at higher figures than were asked a short — — time ago.

Fancy cloakings were in fair request, and there was a limited business in stockinets and Jersey cloths Soft wool and worsted dress goods were in good demand for the spring trade, and there was a steady call at first hanas for small duplicate parcels of goods required for immediate distribution.
