This may be regarded as sufficient evidenoe that the present prices are profitable to the packer, though such has not always been the case The hog-packing industry is a great and growing source of wealth, which is steadily increasing the earnings of the great carriers of the West, and promises to prove a valuable addition to our exports of cotton, breadatuffs and petroleum in keeping the balance of late years. of the foreign trade in our favor. 03 128 As a single illustra- branch of trade, the case of Scioto Valley principal mart, may be cited.

Chicago & Louis Alton & though operating no Chief Alton, the Cleveland Indianapolis, the International St. gains, & among these are the Columbus Cincinnati & Great Northern, and Terre Haute main line. It is tlie on such roads that the forces at work to swell railroad receipts are most pointedly shown. Large crops, good rates, an augmented passenger movement, and an expansion in the volume of general freight, with more return traffic, are the influences to which we are indebted for the present earnings, and just so long as they remain in operation is the future full of hope and bright with the promise of continued gains. tion of the increase in this compared with former years, and partly of the unprecedented foreign trade. The speculation in pork The present high prices, are the result partly of speculation at Chicago, which caused an advance of 100 per cent in few months, necessarily affected the prices of cut meats, though not in an equal degree; and the unintera rupted activity of trade has alone served to advance permanent. It has been pointed out that New York make the has not had her share in this large increase in the foreign trade in provisions, and an examination of the statistics confirms this some It is true that the exports of provisions from this port show a decrease compared statement iu part. — OcTOBBR with THE CHRONJCJLE. 23, 1880.] commerce 417 notwithstanding the increased movement from the country at large; but it is equally true that the foreign shipments from New York of lard, for in- greatly increasing and is now at aheavier rate than was ever known before, our carrying trade gets no growth out of it. The changes in the stance, show an important increase, and that our merchants have had a fair share in the increased distribution ratios, to be sure, might show only that the foreign share grows more rapidly than the Amorican. This i^ true; but while the foreign share grows upward to foreign last year, home consumers. Not that it is the fact that the provision traffic of here sought to evade New York is is the American grows downward, for the American carrying being injured by the custom, which has grown up of late years, of sending provisions from Chicago to Liverpool, by way of New York, Boston or Montreal, on through bills of business dwindles not only relatively but in absolutr amount. Such is the trouble—the disease— which everybody in lading; but the evil, if it threatens to assume alarming the United States deplores more or less and desires to proportions, has failed to do so as yet, and it is well remedy.

As the form of aid, the resolutions adopted week before last, is noticeable because of the great import- ask the repeal of the existing law requiring three months^ ance of the subject-matter, and because the convention was advance of wages to seamen, and some other provisions in one sense a representative body, that is, the majority relative to seamen are recommended, so that our laws \ of the persons composing ship it are property or are engaged actually interested in constructing or in moving ships. The meeting was held for the express purpose of discussing measures for the preservation or, in more accurately, for the restoration— of the business of building ships and carrying merchandise. : may not be amiss to briefly state the extent of the decay in American carrying trade before speaking of the recent convention particularly. Between 1864 and 1879, American tonnage entered at our seaports from foreign countries increased 28 per cent foreign It ; ton- nage increased 200 per cent; of steam vessels from foreign ports, 153,200 tons were American in 1864, 836,400 in 1870, and 1,118,400 in 1879 foreign steam tonnage thus arriving was 729,700 in 1864, 1,680,700 in 1870, and 5,363,000 in 1879.

There has been a fair demand for money during the week, but there Las been no unusual activity, notwithstanding that some heavy payments are usual at this period of the year. The " fourth " of the month, which in the month of October is frequently heavy, has scarcely affected the money market, the mercantile demand for accommodation being generally very light. Neither have the movements in gold attracted any considerable amount of attention. A few parcels of that metal have been withdrawn from the Bank during the week, and the imports from abroad and from our colonies have also been absorbed by the export inquiry. The money market, however, remains stationary, but there is an impression, which has, indeed, been entertained for some time past, but which has not yet become a reality, that the directors of the Bank of England niust soon be compelled to raise their rates of di.scount. That view of the future of the money market is still held by many, notwithstanding that the Bank of Germany has lowered its quotation this week from ."(^ to 5 per cent. A rise here from 2>^ to 3 per cent would be a matter of very little consequence, it is very certain that it would have no effect in checking the export demand for gold. The directors of the Bank of and England may still prefer therefore to remain at 2>2 per cent, as the open market is working below them and obtaining the largest proportion of the discount business in progress. The supply of bullion held by the Bank of England is large, viz., f27,361,588, against £34,094,924 last year. The falling off is considerable, but the fact must be borne in mind that the supply held in 1879 was abnormally large, and was in excess of reasonable requirements. The same process of reduction is not desirable now, as the supply of bullion would then be little more than £20,000,000 but there is no pressing demand, and there appears to be no great necessity for adopting measures with a view to restrict it. During the last six weeks, the Bank has lost about £1,200,000 in gold ; bat a good deal of this has been absorbed recently by the provinces and will probably be returned before long. Trade also is very quiet, and shows no indications of showing any great revival this year. It is, however, as the Board of Trade returns bear witness, of a fairiy extensive character, very free, on the whole, from speculation, and. It IS thought, not unattended by moderate profits.

Archdeacon .»ble for producing choice and really fine Denison says that home-making and no artificial drying are the two principal elements of good cheese making. He says that it almost incredible that any farmers in the Cheddar cheese country should have thrown away all their valuable monopoly by allowing themselves to be deceived by the American example A real Cheddar cheese .of artificial drying and rapid sale. should not be eaten under eighteen months from date of making, and is best at two years from it. There is no country in Europe or out of it that can make prime Cheddar cheese except Somersetshire, and the Archdeacon suggests that farmers Is .should strictly economize in order that they may regain the position they have almost entirely sacrificed. It may be added that th«re is seldom any lack of demand for best qualities, and, now that farmers are compelled to be more serious in contriving to make the land pay, farming operatives are more likely to return to their ancient ways, and more attention will be paid to the production of butter, cheese, eggs and poultry, and in fact all dairy produce. Fanners must surrender their notions of ease, and devote their attention to something more profitable than the cultivation of cereals. At Newcastle-on-Tyne, yesterday, a transaction occurred which is said to be unprecedented in the history of steam-shipping on the northeast coast, and shows in a remarkable manner "the serious condition of Russia as regards her wheat harvest. The steamer Gosforth was chartered to load wheat at Liverpool for Cronstadt at lis. 6d. per ton. There were other oifers in the market ; Is. 9d. per quarter was quoted at Newcastle-onTyne for steamer to load wheat at London for Cronstadt, but there were not any takers.

The trade for cereal produce during the past week has been decidedly firm, and, although no activity has been apparent, a good business for consumption has been transacted at a further advance in prices of fully Is. per quarter. The chief improve- ment has been « white wheats, but those descriptions showed short time back the greatest proportion of depression, and it in is natural, therefore, that greatest. the recovery in them should be the in the condition of the wheat trade indications of weakness, millere would be unwilling to pnr(fiase in excess of their actual requirements. A termination to XXXI. that condition of things was, however, inevitable, and as soon as the average price of home-grown produce fell below 40s. per quarter buyers began to perceive that the lowest point had probably been reached, and that it was a judicious movement to buy. It may be observed in passing that this season "the average price of home-grown produce is to be more relied upon as a test of actual value, as the quality of the supplies coming to market is very much superior to last year's. It; is well known that last year's low average for home-grown wheat was due to the great inferiority of the crop, and not so much to any actuaj depression in the trade. With so low an average as 40s. per quarter, and even less, millers could scarcely be far wrong in replenishing their exhausted stores, and it is to this movement that, in a very great measure, the present firmness of the trade Millers are undoubtedly purchasing with J is to be attributed. a great degree of caution, and this is obvious from the fact that! prices have not experienced any great improvement, more especially as the improvement has been from a very low point. Their opinion is that the present firmness of the tra<fc will 1 speedily have the eflfect of stimulating exports from America and other producing countries, but should it fail to have that effect a further advance will be necessary. Though making more liberal purchases, they are still disposed to buy cautiously, and not to accumulate a large stock at too rapid a rate. Very probably, when a fair working stock has been acquired, the trade will relapse into a quiet, though steady condition. It has been estimated that the quantity of home-grown wheat available for consumption is about 10,000,000 quarters, and that about 14,000,000 quarters will have to be imported from abroad in order to meet our requirements. These figures are no doubt sufficiently accurate for all practical purposes, but this fact remains: that if we import only 14,000,000 quarters, our stocks at the close of the season will remain where they were at the commencement, viz., at a minimum point. With prices as low aa they are at present, millers will undoubtedly be inclined to speculate in a moderate way by forming a reserve sufficiently extensive to constitute a fair working stock. To accomplish this, purchases abroad will be necessary in addition to those which are required strictly for consumption, and, should the weather remain unpropitious for autumnal field work, those purchases may assume proportions larger than are anticipated at present. The fact must not be lost sight of that at the close of last season, viz., at the close of August last, the United Kingdom and Europe were very bare of reserve supplies, and should the weather continue unfavorable for autumn sowing, which would clearly be prejudicial to next year's harvest, a still healthier demand may arise for wheat, which would lead to a further advance in prices. If American growers, upon whom we are chiefly dependent for supplies, are in a position to hold, and they appear to be capable of doing so, we may yet see a moderate rise on current prices ; but opinion inclines to the belief that we shall be adequately supplied on very moderate terms. The deliveries of British farmers are disappointing, indicating that the crop has been overestimated. They show, of course, a large increase over last season, but the estimated total for the first six weeks of the season of 813,600 quarters, while comparing with only 363,580 quarters in 1879, contrasts with aa much as 1,376,500 quarters in 1878 and 1,148,380 quarters in 1877. Some of the well-to-do farmers may be holding out for better prices and times ; but as the majority are compelled to sell it is very justly concluded that the wheat crop in Great Britain in 1880 is decidedly below the anticipa- which had been formed regarding it. During the week ended October 2 the sales of home-grown wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales amounted to 49,645 quarters, against 15,161 quarters; while it is computed that in the whole kingdom they were 198,580 tions quarters, against 60,650 quarters in 1879, 285,800 quarters in 1878 and 245,750 quarters in 1877. Since harvest the sales in the 150 principal markets have been 203,397 quarters, against 90 535 quarters; while it is computed that in the whole kingdom they have been 813,600 quarters, against 3')3,580 quarters in quarters in 1877. 1879, 1,376,560 quarters in 1878, and 1,148,380 Without reckoning the supplies furnished ex-granary at ths commencement of the season, it is estimated that the following quantities of wheat and flour have been placed upon the British markets since harvest.

The loss in net revenue on this account may be fairly considered aft amounting to ^200,000, the net earnings for these five months amounting to but $47,657, while for the remaining four months of the period under review they reached $200,761. As the locomotive equipment of the road has not, up to this date, beea more than properly handle sufficient to its local busine».s, any considerable increase of business from connecting lines has not been solicited.

" Notice should also be taken of the extraordinary expenditures which your company has been obliged to make in renewal and betterment of the Western Division of its railroad that has been built and in operation for several years, but which, by reason of its limited facilities for doing business, has produced a revenue entirely inadequate to perfect the same as required. These expenditures, during the period covered by this report, have for the most part been thase of renewal of ties, bridges and trestles, and the sum of $17,015 has been expended in the matter of renewal of ties alone. These expenditures will have <• The busi* » to be continued during the next year." * ness of this company is in its infancy, and very much of the For trafBc which it must command is still undeveloped. instance, it« railroad runs through fifteen miles of territory underlaid with valuable coal, of which there has been no open« * « ing except for individual use." " A traffic contract has been made for the mutual benefit of this company and the Wabash St. Louis & Pacific Railway Co., for an important interchange of traffic, extending over a long period of years, which should be a great help in developing through business. The future development of these several resources for business, with others this company possesses, most insure a large and continued increase of revenue." The BALANCE SHEET, A0GU8T 31, 1880. Asaetg.

Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe— Southern Pacific of California.— The Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad Company issues a circular to shippers of California freight, announcing that that road and the Southern Pacific will be completed and connected about Jan. 1, 1881. The Chicago Tribune reports that Mr. W. B. Strong, General Manager of the A. T. & S. Fe road, has lately returned from the East. Mr. Strong met Messrs. Huntington, Crocker, Towne and Stubbs, of the Southern Pacific, and it was arranged that the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific should connect at a point about thirty miles west of the Rio Grande known as Florida Point. This point is about 100 miles east of the Arizona line in New Mexico. The Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe is now working southwest of. San Marcial and the Southern Pacific east of San Simon. A gap of about 170 miles remains to be completed to eflfect the junction of the two roads. Brooklyn Elerated.— Richard G. Phelps of Brooklyn has been appointed Receiver of the Brooklyn Elevated Railway Company, of which W. F. Bruflf is President. No work has been done for some time in the structure of the road, which is put up on almost one-half of the route from Fulton Ferry to East New York, principally in Park, Grand and Lexington avenues. The Receiver was appointed by Judge Cooke, on the application of Edwin S. Keeler, one of the stockholders and directors of the company. The complaint sets forth that the property was mortgaged for $3,500,000 to the Farmers' Loan & Trust Company, September 7, 1879 that the contract for the construction of the road was given to Robert B. Floyd Jones at $350,000 a mile of completed structure, and also $500,000 in the stocks of the company, but the bonds and stocks have been deUvered to him before any part is completed, and President Bruflf refused to give any information on the subject. The complaint asks that he be compelled to account for his disposition of the bonds and property, and that he and his associates be enjoined as directors.—i\^. Y. Tribune. Buffalo Cleveland & Chicago.— This company has been incorporated in Ohio for the purpose of building a railroad from the Pennsylvania line by way of Cleveland and Toledo to the Indiana line.

On Wednesday, October 20th, he had a long conference with President Gowen and the board of managers of the companies. No announcement was made as to the result of their deliberations, but it was stated that an American committee will shortly be appointed. The following is an abstract of the English committee's second report, just at hand in the London newspapers " Since the issue of their first report, dated June 18 last, the committee liave been in active eomnuinioation with the Receivers, with reference to, the position and prospects of the companies, and the steps to be taken for their reorganization. The committee have not yet received the valuations which have been made of the two companies' properties under the order of the United States Court. The committee cannot explain the delay that has taken place, but they hope to receive copies of tliese valuations before long. In consequence of the default to pay the interest due on July 1 to the general mortgage bondholders, it became the duty of the committee to consider what stops should bo taken to protect this class of securities. With the approval of the committoc a Meehaulrs' suit was commenced for that purpose by the Farmers' National Bank of Philadelphia, and on July 2 last the order for tho Receiver in the suit of the income mortgage bondholders was extended to the general mortgage suit. This step excluded any factious proceedings bv small bodies of bondholders. Another i:uportant question which presented itself was the way in which the debts due for materials and supplies at the date when the companies suspended payment should be dealt with. The total amoimt was about $1,815,500. and it w!i» urgently asked that this should be In some way secured or satisfied. & . > .

The existinK ehartei-s of the two companies were prior in date to this new t'onstitufion, and (as the committee believe) are protected from change liy a ekMiec in the Constitution of the United States. But any new company now formed to take over the railway, &c., on a purchase might (it js apprehended) become subject to the terms of the new Ft-nnsylvauiau CoiiBtitiition.

The couiiiiittec think it right to say that it seems to them that the shareholders will hin e to bear a very substantial part, if not the whole, of the amount necessary to extinguish the floating debt, after the creditors to whom It is due shall have made reasonable concession as to the amount.

"The committee i;an see no reasonable hope of this being done, inasmuch as such a euiirse would throw tln^ whole burden upon the mortgage bondholders and require from them excessive and unreasonable forbearance and sclf-itcnial. The committee believe it would be a great misfortune, oven for the shareholders and non-mortgage creditors themselves, that such hopi s should be entertained for, if acted on, they could only lead to dlsappointmi^nt. Of the two plans which the committee have described in their rcjiort, they would prefer the second. * * * If. liowever, the desire of this committee to invite and promote an arrangeiiunt of this kind should not be responded to, they would feel themselves boundl. u r<:8ort to the first plan, of a sale by the court, which requires BO eoiBeni or ooperation by the shaieholders or inferior creditors, and nnder which these creditors and shareholders would find themselves entirely excluded."

United States Bond Fraiids. tral Pacific troller of the Treasury, — Judge Lawrence, First Comphas rendered the following decision; First— That where it has been fraudulently represented to the Treasury Department that a Government bond has been (le8tro.ved and that when so destroyed it was owned by a party named, payment to such body of such bond by the Treasury Department will not deprive .another person, the tmnn fide owner of the bond, of the right to payment. Second— The payment to such fraudulent claimant does not operate to exliau.'ft so much of the permanent appropriation made for the payment of the public debt as has been so applied, so that a new appropriation is necessary. The aiipropriations for payment of the public debt are of moneys suflleicut to pay bonds called for payment. Third— As to otlffir appropriations of speclflc sums for purposes stated, a payment liy mistake to a fraudulent claimant cannot deprive a rightful claimant of his right to payment. In suoli case the erroneous pajment could not be charged to the appropriation so as to exclude the rightful claimant from paymen t, but should go to au account for relief by Congress. Washington City Virginia Midland — Pursuant & Great Southern. to the decree of the Virginia Court of Appeals, the Circuit Court of Alexandria, Va., has entered a decree ordering the sale of this railroad.

The property will be purchased by a committee of its creditors, and reorganized under terms agreed upon some time since. Western Railroad of Minnesota.— Washington dispatches of October 16 reported that the Secretary of the Interior had rendered a decision involving interests in the case of the WestRailroad of Minnesota, now operated and controlled by the Northern Pacific Railroad Company, in regard to the claim of that company for lands under the indemnity grant to the State of Minnesota of the acts of March 3, 1857,. March 3, 1865, and the various amendatory statutes. This decision, which also bears directly upon the similar claims of the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad, is favorable to the claims. The decision accords with the opinion of Attorney -General Devens furnished to the Interior Department last June, and is substantially in accord with the original practice of the Department prior to the decisions rendered by the Supreme Court in the cases of Leavenworth Lawrence & Galveston Railroad Co. vs. the U. S. and the U. S. vs. Burlington & Missouri River Railroad Co., which cases are construed by the Attorney-General's opinion as not necessarily confiicting with the views therein expressed. em — Wisconsin Central.

The excitement and activity on the Stock Exchange have diverted much speculative interest from mercantile circles, and the eiport demand for some of the staples of domestic produce has fallen off, giving a quieter appearance to business during the past week. The near approach of the Presidential Election also has an adverse effect. There has been a violent storm in the Northwest, which for a time interrupted transportation, there having been a deep fall of snow, unprecedented, so far as is known, in October. There has been an absence of speculative support to the pro?ision market during the past week, and prices have gradually declined until to-day, when mess pork on the spot was sold at f IG; November options were quoted $13@$I3 70, and seller year, $12 50@$13 20 bid and asked; October settling price, $18.

Fhidat, p. M.. October 22, 1880. As a whole the dry goods market has been quiet the past week, but there was an undercurrent of activity in some departments of the trade. There was a better demand for spring woolens by the clothing trade, which resulted in a fair business, and operations in certain makes of cotton goods were continued by converters and finishers but jobbers bought sparingly, and the export trade in domestics was liberal scale ; checked by the inability of manufacturers' agents to accept orders for goods to be delivered at a stated time, because of the prevailing drought, which has seriously curtailed production in the manufacturing districts. Cool weather has enabled the wholesale clothing houses to reduce their stocks of winter and the dry goods jobbing trade—if not active— was at clothing, least fairly satisfactory for the time of year. Domestic Cottos Goods.— The exports of cotton goods from this port during the week ending Oct. 19 were 1,894 packages, including 396 to Hayti, 393 to China, 247 to Great Brilain, 219 to U.S. of Colombia, 203 to Hamburg, 177 to Venezuela, and a num- The demand by package and ber of smaller shipments. buyers was chiefly of a hand-to-mouth character; but stated) large quantities of poses, exporters, retail above goods were sold for conversion pur- and there was a good inquiry for brown by &c., (as drills, sheetings, which was only partially met, owing to the meagre supplies on the market and the reluctance of agents to The diminished promarked accompanied by unusually large " and " futures;" the closing quota- accept orders deliverable at a fixed period. duction has imparted firmness to prices, and therewas a advance in print cloths, transactions in both " spots 4Me. for 64i64s and 3'/§@3Mc. for 56x603. calicoes ruled quiet and ginghams (though firm Printed in price) were in relatively light request.
