On Thursday
the directors of the Bank were not long in
announcing a cljange. Some were of opinion that tlie advance
would not exceed half per cent, but those who had given careful consideration to the matter considered that so small a
movement would be ineffective, and the Bank authorities liave
entertained the same idea. Accordingly an advance to 3 per
cent was quickly adopted, and the movement has given satisfaction. Two per cent was a very low rate, and could not be
maintained in the face of a continuous outflow of gold. At
the same time 3 per cent is by no means a high rate, and can
interfere with no interests, either commercial or financial, but

&
Pittsburg.
—The Bondholders' Committee has
issued a circular, under date of October 15. addressed to the
Pittsburg Railroad Company.
stockholders of the Rochester
The circular refers to the issue of tlie second mortgage, of
which only $1,132, .500 were taken, and then continues: " It is
believed that if under such foreclosure proceedings, are-organization can be effected within a reasonable time, the second
mortgage bondholders will take for their bonds the 75 per cent
and accrued interest which they gave for them, and the floating debt creditors will take their money with like interest, and
not meantime sacrifice the bonds which they hold as collateral.
The following is substantially the plan of re-organization in
contemplation of the bondholders:
"1. The new company to be called the 'Buffalo Rochester
&
,
&
Pittsburg Railroad Company.'
"2. Subject to existing liens which are prior to the present
second mortgage bonds, the capital stock to be $15,000,000, of
which $5,000,000 is to be preferred and $10,000,000 to be common stock. The preferred stock to be entitled to a dividend
of 6 per cent in any one year, but non-cumulative, before any
dividend shall be made in that year oiythe common stock, any
further dividend in that year to be on the common stock to an
amount not exceeding 6 per cent, thereafter dividends lor that
year to be alike.
"Of the common stock, $5,000,000 to be distributed pro rata
among the holders of the stock of the present company without
payment.
"The terms of subscription to be the payment of $fi0 for
every two shares of said stock, one of which two shares shall
be preferred and one common, payments to be made 10 per
cent down and the balance as called for.
"A provision to be inserted in the certificate of organization
of the new company that no mortgage to secure an issue of
bonds or similar securities shall be e.xet'uted by said new company unless authorized by the concurrent vote of two-thirds
of the preferred stock holders and of a majority of the common
stock holders.
"The money raised in this manner will pay the second mortgage bonds and the floating debt on the terms above stated,
and leave the new company with funds ample for the necessities o" its business.
"Despite the present unfortunate financial condition of your
company, there is no reason to lose confidence in the future
value of your property. The coal business is in as bad or worse
condition than it has ever been, nevertheless the net earnings
of your road are suflicient to meet all tlie fixed charges for
wliich the new company will be liable should the proposed reorganization be effected." * * *

Tennessee Railroad Suits. At Washington. Oct. 23, the
Tennessee bond cases, which comprise sixteen suits against
railroad corporations, were called for argument in the United
States Supreme Court. There was an extraordinary array of
counsel present. The bonds are part of those ishued by the
State of Tennessee in aid of the railroads. The bondholders
ask that they be declared a lien on the roads, claiming that
they were issued for the benefit of the roads. The railroad
comjianies claim that the lien was for the benefit of the State,
and the bonds were a direct obligation of the State only.

TheMonpy Market and Financial 81tnation.—Tho excitement ovi-r tlu! coining elections is eo great as to put a temporary check on business.
So far as tlie railroads are concerned there has not been a
time for years when the trunk line situation was so mi.YOd as
at present, and at the same time so intensely interesting in it.i
future developments.. The collapse in prices and
has unsettled a number of the great corporations, and the future control of at least five of these remains
in tmcertainty, viz.: West Shore, Erie, Jersey Central, Readjiossibility of
deficit in earnings
ing and Wabash. To this list, if rumor is correct, may also
be added Lake Shore, though as to that we have nothing but
the Street rumor.
In fact, rumors have been active, and it is worth noticing
that at different times this week they have credited Jay Okiuld
and his associates with a purpose of getting control of West
Shore, Lake Shore and Oregon Navigation, which, with the control of Wabash and Union Pacific, would give them a continuous line from ocean to ocean. These rumors may be illfounded or greatly exaggerated, but where there is so much
smoke there may' certainly be a little fire. Theeo reports as
tliey have come out were sul)stantially as quoted below, and
may be taken for whatever they are worth:

that an attempt is to be nuid- to eet control of Lake Shore for a connection belweeii Went Shoie & Wabash."
On Thursday the Dow & Jones Ntws-Letter said :

"To jirovide for the payment of the scrip certificates and
for the company's other requirements, and also to provide for
the company's first mortgage bonds at maturity, or for such
as the holders might be willing to exchange before that time,
the issue of fourteen million dollars of consolidated mortgage
bonds, bearing interest at five per cent, was proposed in
Janury last, and their sale negotiated on favorable terms.
The plan was found impracticable under the Oregon law
relating to mortgages, and was abandoned. The company
issued six million dollars of debentures, bearing seven per
cent interest, payable in gold, dated April 1, 18S4, and having
three years to run. Five millions of these have been sold, and

Philadelphia & Reading.— Tiie general statement by the
receivers of this company, who were appointe<l on June 2. 1884,
has finally been made pu'olic. It consists of four exhibits of
figures as follows: Statement A, general balance sheets on June
2 of the railroad company and coal and iron company; statement
B, the bonded debt and annual interest thereon of lx)th companies on June 3; statement C. the annual rent of leased lines
of railroads and canals and of guarantees on June 3: state-
ment D, a comparative statement of the current liabilities of
both companies as shown on June 3 by the balance sheet and
on September 30, together with the annual fixetl charges:
A. B.\T.ANCE Shkets June 3, 1881.— These are not materially
different from the general balance sheets of the last anuu^
report, and are too voluminous for reproduction here the
items of present interest, too, the fliftting debt, &c., are under
other heads as given below. The Philadelphia Press comments on this exhibit as follows
;
The railroad company's statement A ahowa a net loss tn the nperatlng
of lue railro.ad company from November 30, 18^3, to .Iuuo2, l>ii*, of
$2,322,282. tind tho coal and iron conipa'iy shows a loss for tlie same
time of $l,04y,702, a total loss of $.t.3n.l)71. It shows that the company holds ot stocks and bonds of other coiiipaules. not including the
coal and lion company. $19.9:50,301. The balane.-i sheet of the coiup.iny

B, Tub Bonded Debt June 2, 1884.— The totals of tended
debt are, of course, included in the balance sheet, and as to the
details in this table the Philadelphia Itirjuirer remarks:

Total
Floating Debt June 3 and Sept. 30.— This statement
D.
is
-very obscure, and to say the least very extraordinary, in not
giving the details which enable the receivers to figure a nominal decrease in floating debt in four months of $6, 461, .523.
The companies are known to be running largely behind their
annual charges, and the money to pay the July interest was
borrowed, so that the conclusion
is inevitable that if this large
decrease was made in floating debt, it must have been through
an increase in funded debt, or by a sale of assets, (sucli for i^nstance as the Central of New Jersey stock held by Mr. Vanderbilt).
The receivers' note to the table below is also difficult to
comprehend, stating that this excludes so many important
items of floating debt on Sept. 30. In fact, it is impossible to
get at the floating debt on Sept. 30, with any degree of accuracy, without knowing those items, and the total of $16,549,0(58,
as given, is evidently much lielow the actual floating liabilities!
The statement of the current liabilities on June 2, compared
with those of September 30, is as follows:

In the matter of the petition of the receivers of the Wabash for permission of Court to pay the interest ou the Havana
Division bonds, the St. Louis (floi e-Deinocrot reporis that the
master's report was presented to Judge TrRit for confirmation,
but he refused to pass it. He said in consultation with the
o her Judges on the bench that they had resolved not to permit th' payment of interest on the bonds of any of the divisions of the system which were not self-sustaining. It did
not matter how important a factor that division might be to
the general sy^tem, it was not equitable or just that the
earnings of self-sustaining portions should be used to pay
interest on bonds of those portions not self-sustaining.
He had permitted the payment of interest on the
bonds, although that road did not earn
Eel
River
justify
he
would not again
it
but
suSicient to
permit such payments. On the representatior.s of the attorneys for the receivers that such refusal would result in the
foreclosure of the bonds of the Havana Division * * * and that
the road is self-sustaining, he referred the report of tlie master
back for further information. In the event of the latter claim
being made good, he said he would permit the payment of the
;
interest.
The receivers of the Wabash filed a report of action under
orders of Court, by which they were directed to issue their
obligations as receivers in lieu of promissory notes, to the
amount of .$2:^3,333, due May 31, 1884, and §85,000 due June 4,
1884, and all other like promissory notes maturing before any
different order of Court should be made. Tlicse notes were
secured by the indorsement of Jay Gould, Russell Sage, Solon
Humphreys and Sidney Dillon, who consented to a continuance
of their indorsements on the now obligati'ina. This issue in
lieu of the promissory notes amounted to $'3,0'$G,C06.
At St. Louis. October 18, the receivers filed a petition, asking
leave to pay $112,000, the balance due on rolling stock purchased in 1879, all the other instalments having been paid up
chattel luortgage secur-s the payment, and unto July 1.
less tho court orders the receivers to pay, the coiit' acting parties will probably levy on all the equipment furnished under
the contract. Another petition asks permission to p.iy tlie interest on .$27.'), 000 first mortgage bonds on tlie part of the
Indianapolis Division of the Wabash Road extending from
Indianapolis to Peru, a distance of 74 miles. Tho semi-annual
amount due is $8,250. This line paid its operating expense*
and repairs, and earned enough to pay the above interest.

for cotton for future delivery has been only
moderately active for the week under review, and, although
showing some variableness in tone and prices, there is in the
aggregate further depression and decline. On Saturday there
was a smart advance on a demand to cover contracts, arising
from reports that damage had been done to the crop by the
prolonged drought and from the fact that there was some
improvement at Liverpool; but the best prices of the day
were not sustained at the close, and on Monday there was a
decided decline in sympathy with an easy closing at Liverpool, and indications that a much freer movement of the crop
had set in. Tuesday closed slightly lower for tlie more remote
deliveries, and on Wednesday the decline, tliough not marked,
was general. General rains at the Soutli have put an end to
the prolonged drought, but much more ra in is needed to swell
the miU streams and navigable rivers. O n Thuisday the market was further depressed. The receipts were large, but Liverpool reported a partial recovery. To- day a slightly firm er
opening, in sympathy with the stronger Liverpool report, was
-followed by severe depression, in which the lowest figures of
the season were made, the closing figures showing a decline
from last Friday of 10(3.11 points. A feature of the movement is the large export to France and the Continent. Cotton
on the spot has been dull throughout the week. There was
only a limited demand fer home consumption. Quotations

prepared for tl»e puri)09e of indicating the actual movem.3nt each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are sometimas misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another at the expense of tho interior stocks. We reach,
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland reoeipta
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 outportn.

Messrs. L.vtuam. Alex.\nder & Co. liave issued this week
their very tasteful aud extremely useful cotton annual.
It
seems almost a pity that it is for private circulation only, for
it presents dull business facts in so attractive a form
such a
liappy combinat ion suggesting both work and p'ay, the partnership no industrious man can afford to dissolve that we wish it
were within the reach of every one. On the first page is an
artotyfe of the United States Treasury building at "Washingtan from a photograph by Falk, whose pictures are always a
study, for he is a real artist— which exhibits at a glance all the
good points, but none of the poor ones, of that representative of
the people's money-bags. Next we have a brief but tuggestive
sketch of the cotton outlook for the past and coming seasons
by the firm following that, are two letters from Mr. Ellison,
as usual full of facts of such real interest to the trade that they
will be widely and eagerly read. Then comes a capital picture
of Mr. Loring, the C^ommissioner of Agriculture. We have
never met Jlr. Loring, but after looking at this engraving no
one would have to be told that he was born and bred in Massachusetts and has the odor of Plymouth Rock about him,
for he shows it in every feature.
These are, of course,
only the b-ginning of what this annual contains. Tet we
have no room for more, and perhaps we should not have said
so much, for we may be only tantalizing the reader as the
book is not for sale.

Mr. M. B. Fielding, after arguing thit the projectel plan
to the charter of the Exchange, criticised some
of the particulars and declared them to be unjust and impracticable.
Mr. F. W. Williams read part of the charter, and
expressed his surprise that the power conferred thereby to
make the alterations should be disputed. Ho explained
and defended the new measures against the attacks
of the first speaker.
Mr. George E. Moore opposed the
changes, because they interfered with the business of
actual cotton brokers. He was also of the opinion that they
put too nmch power into the hands of rich speculators, because
was contrary
through buying up a large number of certificates they could
control the market.
Mr. John H. Inman objected to the
charges as being excessive, and he also explained how the system could not work at times. Mr. S. Ranger did not approve
of a law that would prevent him from inspecting and receiving cotton on contracts purcha-sed for export, but thought it

Domestic Woolen Goods. — Spring woolens for men's wear
have met with more attention from the wholesale clothing
trade, but the actual business done was disappointing to holdhaving placed orders with a degree of caution
seldom witnessed at the outset of the season. Fair-sized
orders were booked for a few of the most popular all-wool
and Union cassimeres and worsteds, but the general demand
was unsatisfactory and much below the average of former
CommcvciJtl Cavils.
