One

of the features of our foreign trade is the increase
in the exports of provisions.
Prices of both lard and

bacon are from 25 to 30 per cent higher than at this

and yet the foreign shipments are in an important ratio

The exports of bacon and hams
from the seven principal shippinsj ports on the Atlantic
seaboard, from November 1, 1879 the beginning of the
season up to October 9, approximated 750,000,000
pounds, an increase of 21,000,000 pounds compared with
the previous season and of lard the excess over last season
is nearly 50,000,000 pounds; while the value of our

London, Saturday, October 9, 18S0.
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have been withdrawn from the Bank during the week, and the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. Whatever may be the disappointments,

There is a growing opinion in Somersetshire that, notwithstandin making good
ing the advantages of the cheese factory system
common sorts, the system practised in home dairies is prefervarieties. 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

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-

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 visible supply in the United States

State and nallroad Bonds
The Southern State bonds have
not been active, but some sales of Virginia consols have been
made for foreign account. North Carolina new 4 per cents sell
at 79^, which is considered as a pretty good price, and one
which shows much confidence in the promise of the old " North
Stat«." There have been .some transactions in Virginia deferred
bonds and in Tennes.sees for Baltimore and St. Louis account.
Railroad bonds have fullijwed stocks in activity, and the prominent Lssues dealt in for speculative account have shown a large
basiness at the Board, at strong prices.
The following securities were sold at auction:

" In calling your attention to the following detailed statements of the operation of the property for the nine months
under review, it is but proper to direct it particulariy to the
first five months of the year, in order that, in arriving at a corcity of

rect idea of the earning capacity of the property, a wrong
impres.sion may be avoided ; owmg to the now line from
Celina, Ohio, to Muneie, Ind., being completed late in the season, and the open and wet winter following, it was found
impracticable to operate that part of the road until late in May
following, thus depriving the road of a large business originat-

ing in Indiana and Illinois, which was necessarily turned off at
Muneie and other connecting points to other roads. 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. We have purchased twelve locomotives for delivery during the current year, four of which are already in
service."

President, Mr. H. B. Hammond, remarks:
" In coafidering the Tarious items of this report, proper
of the fiscal
notice must be taken of the fact that while it is
company,
year ending August 31, 1880, the railroad of this
between its termmi— Decatur, 111., and Indianapolis, Ind.— was
and
not put in operation until the 9th day of February, 1880;
the
that it was not in condition for the usual requirements of
*
*
*
trafBc of a railroad until the month of April, 1880."
" 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

" A traffic contract has been made for the mutual benefit of

resources for business, with others this company possesses,

At Richmond, Va., October 16, a meeting of infiuential
citizens of Richmond, Lynchburg, Petersburg, Norfolk and
other cities was held to consider the best measures to be
adopted to secure a postponement of the sale of the Atlantic
Mississippi & Ohio Railroad on the 2d of November. They
adopted resolutions providing for a committee of five to lay
before the councils of those cities a plan of combining their
infl.uence for applying for an extension for ninety days, and

—

to recommend to the councils, as a part of their application
for the extension, a contract conditioned upon said parties paying into the court at the expiration of the time of extension
$500,000, with a guarantee of the payment in full of the
present outstanding indebtedness on the interest account
of the company. The meeting adjourned until the 22d inst. to
receive the report of the committee.

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. The route described is generally a few miles
south of the Lake Shore road and parallel to it. The capital

will be run between Chicago and Pierre, thus necessitating but
one change between Chicago and Deadwood in either direction,
an advantage that no other line can even approach. In the

Philadelphia & Reading.— Mr. T. W. Powell, of the English
bondholders' committee, arrived in Philadelphia last week. 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.

—Prenidttnt Gowen, in a letter to the Public Ledger, says

:

" If it were possible that such a ihing as a foreclosure or sale of the
nroi>erty could ever take place, the latter would be sold subject to the
lien of all the prior mortgages, and out of the proceeds of sale the
Keiieivers' certificates won d be paid even if there was not enough mone
to pay the general mortgage in full, but such sale would in no mauner
disturb the lien or affect the security of the prior mortgages, the holders
of which can therefore safely dismiss all fears as to their position
As
to the amount of Receivers' certificates outstanding
On the
of
May last the Receivers were authorized to borrow $1,000,000, ofa7th
which
$t>10.000 was torimcrest on consolidated mortgage due Juno 1st and
the rcmaming $:i!)0,000 was for the purpose of paying arrears of wages
Of this issue of $1,000,000, there has been paid $300,000, and .$300 000
JMimtional will be paid within the next two weeks. The Receivers also
issued $:179,1«2 SB of certificates for July rentals, all of which

Paul Minneapolis & Manitoba.— This company are
pushing forward the extension of their lines. The Pioneer Pre.%i,
in reporting the progress of the work, says: " On the Grand
Forks Fargo Jloorhead & Barnesville extension the track is laid
31% miles south of Grand Forks. The distance from Grand
Forks to Fargo is 7.5 miles, and from Fargo t« Barnesville is
22% miles. The grading over the latter distance is nearly completed. The extension from Breckenridge to Maple River is 48
miles long, and the track is down over half the distance. The
extension from Morris to Brown's Valley is 48 miles long, and
the track reached Graceville, a distance of 26.}^ miles from
Morris, on Wedne.sday. The extension west of Grand Forks is
graded for a distance of 15 miles, and is ironed for 11?^ miles.
Work is progressing very favorably on the Osseo branch, and
St.

12 miles of track will be laid this season. All these extensions
are to be finished before severe cold weather sets in, thus
adding 225 miles to the railroad system of St. Paul."

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. In accordance with the
decree, Mr. John S. Barbour, commissioner of sale, announces
that the entire line of road and all branches, with all equipments, rights, franchises, properties, &c., will be sold on 20th
December next, at public auction, at Alexandria. 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.

Feidat NiOFiT, Oet. 22, 1880.
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.

The above

figures indicate an increase in the cotton in sight
to-night of 296,838 bales as compared with the same date of 1879,
an increase of 293,068 bales as compared with the corresponding
date of 1878, and an increase of 278,171 bales a-s compared with
1877.
In the preceding visible supply table we have heretofore only
included the interior stocks at the seven original interior town.s.
As we did not have the record of the new interior towns for the
four years, we cotdd not make a comparison in any other way.
That diflSculty no longer exists, and we therefore make the following comparison, which includes the stocks at the nineteen
towns given weekly in our table of interior stocks instead of only
the old seven towns.

The above statement shows
1. That the total receipts from the plantations since Sept. 1 in
1880 were 1,267,288 bales; in 1879 were 1,065,214 bales; in 1878
were 940,310 bales.
2. That the receipts at the out-ports the past week were
236,341 bales, and the actual movement from plantations 267,211
bales, the balance being added to stocks at the interior ports.
Last year the receipts from the plantatiotLs for the same week
were 229.227 bales and for 1878 they were 180,526 bales.

Receipts from the PLAjrrATio?f.s.—The following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the ontpjrts are sometimes mi-sleading, aa they are made up more largely one year
than another, at the expense of the interior sUxiks. We reach,
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frec^uent inquiritss we will add
that these flgur&s, of course, do Jiot include overland receipto or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-port.s.

The average for the entire South for the five months is thus 5
per cent better than the average for the five months of last
year. All the States show higher averages except Missis-sippi,
Arkansas and Tennessee, which show a small decrease. The
decline is largest in Tennessee, but even there amounts to only
5/S per cent.

aOODS TRADE.
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

was more inquiry for light-weight satinets. Dress goods,
shawls and skirts were severally in light request.
FoKHON Dry Goods were devoid of animation in first hands,
and the jobbing trade was comparatively quiet. Staple dress
goods and fine silks are steadily held, but fancy dress fabrics
and low-grade silks, satins and velvets are offered at unremunerative price-s, owing to the excessive supply still resting with
importers, notwithstanding the large offerings made through
the auction rooms for many weeks past. Linen goods, laces
and embroideries are fairly steady at unchanged prices, and
there was a light demand for such fabrics during the week:
