[From oar own oorreeponaent.j
London, Saturday, September 21, 1901.
The greatly regretted death of Mr. McKinley has practically
suspended business upon the Stock Exchange* this week. On
Saturday, though the formal closing of tae House could not
be effeoted, the members themselves agreed to disperse without doing any business. On Monday there was some itflu
ential buying of American securities; but the movement did
not last. On Thursday the Stock Exchange was officially
closed. To day and Moaday are Jewish holidays, when most
of the Jewish members of the House will be absent. As a
ooDsequence of all this there has been exceedingly little
doing. German operators bought Argentine securities in the
beginning of the week upon a considerable scale, a report
having been circulated in Berlin that the unification law
would be very soon re-introduced and that tbe Government
was confident of carrying it out. Nothing is known here of
such a decision and very little credence is attached* to the
report. French operators also bought largely Brazilian seUndoubtedly the Brazilian Government finances

are in a very satisfactory state. The Government is callicig
in and cancelingtlarge amounts of notes. It is likewise redeeming debt upon a large scale; and there is a very satisfactory rise in the exohange; but French buying has not
lasted, and there has been very little doing on British
account.
The date fixed in Lord Kitchener's proclamation ended on
Sunday, and practially no result has been effected. On the
contrary, the Boers are again very active, and they have
been able to inflict exasperating reverses|upon our troops.
It would look, therefore, as if the struggle was to continue
for some time yet; and that being so, the mining market is
of course much depressed, and there is little inclination to
;

deal in

new

business.

Germany the depression is doepening. There have of late
been two failures that have increased the very widespread
distrust already existing— one a small local bank in S >uth
G rmany and the other a large shipping comimny in North
Germany. The mere liabilities are not of a magnitude to
account for the depression mad^; but it is believed that very
serious irregularity s have been brought to lir^bt. It is the
gross and culpable mismanagement, in some cases even the
grave crimes, which hive been brought to light by s > many
recent failures that is so seriously disturbing the minds of
people in Germany, Distrust has now reached such a point
that the banks in general are very unwilling to discmot
bills except they are drawn upon tne very highest hou-es;
and these of course are few and not easily obtained. Were
it not, indeed, for the Imperial Bank, the trade <f Germany
would be in serious straits at present. The Imperial Bank,
however, is doing everything it can to relieve tue situa'ion.
At the present time its discounts very nearly reach 46 millions
sterling, comparing with 37^ millions sterling a toe corresponding date last year, when it will be recollected the crisis
had already begun. The unwillingness of the banks in general to give accommodation is nuking the p-jsttim of the
smaller traders very trying, and it is by no meat-simprobable
that several other failures will occur. As a cousequeuce of
the action of the banks, money in the short loan market is
very abundant and cheap
Investors are confining themselves almost entmiy to Government loans, and negotiations
are going on for the issue of a Russian railway loan for 80

any

direction.

Upon

the Continent French attention is undoubtedly taken
up with tho visit of the Czar. Perhaps that accounts for
the sudden cessation of French buying of Brazilian securities.
It looks as if the dispute with turkey w -is practically
settled; but there is a report that the French Government is
urging upon the other governments the necessity for an international commission to manage Turkish finances. It is
hardly probable that the other governments will comply; and
it is almost certain that without the application of force the
Sultan will not agree. Meanwhile, it is understood that the

million roubles, or 8 millions sterliog.

Money continues exceedingly abundant and cheap in London, although inquiries have been made respecting shipments
of gold to New York; and the general belief in the city is
in the meanwhile people argue
that rates will rise rapidly,
that the Bank of England is exceptionally strong, that it
could lose two or three millions sterling without inconvenience, and that the Bank of France will furnish any gold that
may be needed so as to prevent stringency in London. The
Bank of France probably will furnish as much gold as is
needed to obtain the food stuffs required by France; but it
will do so only if it is convinced that a different course would
cause trouble in London. Toerefore as soon as gold shipments on any considerable scale begin, it is extremely probable that rates will rise here; and this is the more likely
because gold is already going to Austria- Hungary, and a
considerable amount of the metal that would otherwise be
received from Australia is being diverted to the United
Spates and to India, and, la-tly, beoause our remittances to
Egypt and South America will this year probably be large.
In Paris money is as abundant as ever and is accumulating;
and, as already said, there is a plethota in Germany because
the banks in general will not give their usual accommodation; but Germany is hardly in a position to bear with
equanimity gold shipments; and France even might not like
material withdrawals from the Bank of France,
Meantime, the India Council continues to sell its drafts
It offered for tender on Wednesday 35 lacs, and the
well.
applications amounted to over 1,068 lacs. The whole amount
offered was allotted at .prices ranging from Is. 3 31-321. to
Is. 4d. per rupee.
The following return shows the position of the Bank of
England, the Bank rate of discount, the price of consols. &c.

WALL, STUEET. EKIDAY. OCT. 4. 1901.-3 •*. M.
The Money Market and Financial Situation.— Confidence
in the stability of industrial securities received another
shock this week, which, following so soon the Copper incident
of last month, had a depressing effect upon the entire market.
On this occasion National Salt caused the disturbance.
This stock, which has held between 40 and 50 during tne
year, dropped from 40 on Wednesday to 23 on Thursday,
carrying with it acons'derable list of minor industrial issues
from 5 to 1" points. There is probably tio special significance in thin movement, as it is in the line of others of a
similar character.
No doubt the international yacht races have had a more
or less distracting influence in Wall Street, but otherwise
there is nothing except the developments in industrial
stocks apparent in the general situation to have caused the
depression noted. Railway earnings and bank clearings
show a continuance of the generd activity that has been
frequently commented upoo, and so far as the demand for
iron and steel products is a forecast of the future, the latter
is promising.
The money market is easier and the foreign
exchange market is therefore at the moment a less important
factor in the financial situation than it has recently been.
The open market rates for call loans on the Stock Exchange
during the week on stock and bond collaterals have ranged
from 2 L2 to 1% per cent. To-day's rates on call were %% to 4
per cent. Prime commercial paper quoted at l8^ u5^ per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday

State and Railroad Bonds.— No sales of State bonds have
been reported at the Board this week.
Transactions in r-rilway bonds have averaged about
$1,650,000 par value daily and the market has been relatively
steady, although there was a tendency to weakness in sympathy with the stock market. Union Pacific; 1st 4s. Burlington & Quincy joint 4s, Chesapeake & Ohio gen. 4^s,
Mohawk & Malone incomes and St. Louis Southwestern
issues were firm features of the active list. The latter also
included Consolidated Tobacco 4s. which declined over a
point, Mexican Central, Northern Pacific, Reading and

Wabash

issues.

Stock and Bond Sales.— The daily and weekly record of
stock and bond sales at the various stock Exchanges, formerly given on this page, has been transferred to a place by
itself.
It will be found to-day on page T14.

Railroad and miscellaneous Stocks.— The stock market
has been dull and generally weak. Transactions averaged
about 425,000 shares daily, and a sharp decline in several
industrial issues led to sympathetic weakness in the railway list. The latter was most conspicuous in the minor
Vanderbilt stocks, including Canada Southern. Cleveland
Cincinnati Chicago & St. Louis, New York Chicago & St.
Western and Peoria & Eastern. These
Louis, Lake Erie
shares declined from 4 to 9 points on an authoritative statement that the plan for organizing a proprietary controlling
company is not likely to be carried into effect for some time
to come, if at all. New York Central also declined 5 points,
and the entire active railway list dropped an average of
about 2 points. The local traction group was notably weak,
led by Brooklyn Rapid Transit in a decline of 7 points.
The weakness of industrial issues noted above was most
pronounced in the case of National Salt, which sold down to
Am-rican
23, 17J:> points below last week's closing price.
Sugar "Refining lost 6V£ points. International Power 6, Glucose Sugar 5*£ and American Woolen preferred, American
Smelting & Refining, American Car & Foundry and United
States Rubber from 3 to 5 points. The above changes have
been modified in some cases in to-day's more active and
irregular market.
Outride market. The outride market as a whole h is been
dull this week, only a very few stocks showing any ri'mation whatever. Very naturally, in view of the collapse in
industr al securities on the St ck Exchange, the tendency
of prices has been downward, and nearly all of the securities
traded in close to-day at lower prices than a week ago.
American Can stocks have been exceptions to the general
rule as regards the amount of business transacted, but not so
far as prices are concerned. On heavy trading the common
fluctuated between 23J 8 and 20^, closing at 21, while the
preferred moved down from 78J£ 10 7«», the final price today. Kansas City Eort Seott & Memphis preferred on fewer
transactions followed about the same course, gomg from
77 J« to 75% and the same can be said of Dominion securi-

the results of operation and the physical improvement of the property are fully set forth in the detailed
exhibits embraced in the report of the Vice President and
General Manager. For the purpose of reimbursing income
account for amour ts heretofore expended for the betterment
of tbe property, the remaining $1,000 000 unissu-d of second
mortgage iDcome bond certificates in the bands of the Trustee were sold, and the net proceeds, viz., $770 OjO, credited to
profit and loss account.
" Full interest (4 per cent) was earned on the second mortgage income bond certificates during the calendar vear 1900,
and paid during the current fiscal year. Full interest was
also earned on th^s" certificates during the six mon'bs ended
Jur.e 30, 1901. which is not payable until J n. 1, 19i 2
"The increased income during the current fi-tcal year enabled the directors to appropriate from profit and loss account and transfer to the credit of general impro >emenr. fund

locomotive and car equipment during tbe current fiscal year,

Prospects. F. H. Britton, Vice-Pressdent and General Man" Tne indications at the date of this report

Boston & Maine Railroad.
{Report for year ending June 30, 1901
President Lucius Tuttle says in part
General Results. —The leas* of the Fitchbur^ RR to this
company became effective July 1. 1900. The operations of the
combined properties, compared with those under separate manaaeujeLt in pievious year, show an iacrease in gross income
of $335,30.}. and in operating exp mes of $177,394
Considering the facts that the manufacturing industries of the sect on most directly served have not found their greatest prosperity during the past year that the cost of everything that
goes into rai'road operation has been materia'ly irjcreas ed,
and that the benefits derivable from an amalgamation of the
two properties could not be realized until seve al months
after their joint operation had been undertaken, the results
are, upon the whole, quite satisfactory.
The policy of expending liberally from the surplus earnings in permanently improviog the condition of the company's
property has been continued.
Stock and Bonds. P. ssession of the property, rights and
;

—

franchises of the Central Massachusetts RR. Co. bas be-n acquired, and $1,735,200 of our oommon stocfc his been, sold to
provide for the purchase of its shares on the agreed basis
viz., $65 a share for the preferred and $31 for the common. Only $44,900 of its preferred and $85,600 of iis common stock is now outstanding.
Under the terms of the lease of the Fitchburg RR. Co.
54,547 shares, being all of the outstanding co-nmon stock of
thavcompany except that held in its treasury, have been
purchased and are held in this company's treasury, and this
company's fifty year 3 per cent bonds have be^n issued and
given in exchange therefor. The $2 100,0m) bonds of the
Central Massachusetts falling due
l. 11)06, ara assumed.

$190 a share, and the proceeds, $1,291,050, used in paymg for
sundty additions and improvements.

midsummer season, while a number of the plants forced
to close by the strikers would have been shut down in any
event to effect these repairs. Beyond all that the figures
are a practical demonstration of the value of concentration
of control, for while the strike was on we were able— so long
as some of our mills were open— to transfer work to them
which otherwise would have gone to the closed mills I
venture the prediction, having in mind the large orders
already placed and the outlook in the iron industry generally,
that in the next six month3 our earnings will increase
largely o\>er tho-e of the first six months.

The unexpended balance to the credit of Rolling Stock
Replacement Fund June 30, 19*1, was $582,747 39.
In addition to the 52 locomotives above mentioned. 152
locomotives were under contract on June 30, 1901, for de
livery during the seven succeeding months.
It will be observed that the expenses in this department
especially as to locomotives, are excessive, exceeding even
the very large cost of last year. The reasons are
First. The necessity of retiring light engines from service
and substituting larger and heavier machines therefor.
Second. The fact t'at engine* have heen crowded to their
utmost capacity by the necessities of the traffic, making
constant repai s necessary.
Third. The changing of coal burners to oil burners at an
expense of about $300 per locomotive.
Fourth. Inferior fuel forced upon us by the strike elsewhere reported.
:

The equipment taken over by the reorganized company
was distinctly inferior both as to cars and engines,
and it has been the cons'ant aim of the management to
bring it up to modern standards without addi ion to Lapital
Account. Such charges as have been made to capital represent additions to cars and engines. All other increase in
in 1896

capacity has been charged to Operating Expenses.

RATIO OF OPERATING EXPENSES TO EARNING S.
The ratio of expenses to earnings is but sliuhtly less than
that of last vear; but it should be understood that there is
included in "the expenses a charge of $900,000 for actual
betterments to property. Deducting this sum, the ratio is
found to be 5757 per cent, instead of 5923 per cent. This

double effect Of enhancing expenses and redu ing j^ross receipts. Too much prominence is given to the ••(.pirating
ratio" by a large portion of the investing community, as
well as by some experts in railway affairs. A very low
operating ratio can Vie obtained by various methods which
do not conduce to the true prospe itj of the carrier: — the
refusal to take traffic at rates which pay only a small profit,
but which will not otherwise move at all;— the charge to
Capital Account of that large class of betterments which

tend toward future economy, but which do not show immediate definite and visible results; the postponement of
necessary expenditures or the practice of spreading them
over a series of years - all conduce to a low -'operating

be increased by measures which tend directly to inert a^e

As

stated in the last annual report, this road was opened
for through freight traffic May 1, 3 900, and for through pas-

senger traffic July 1. 1900. The fiscal year covered by this
report, therefore, is the first in the history of the completed
road, and while the new portion of the line was somewhat
incomplete and has required large expenditures, the net results hav^- been entirely satisfactory.
The franchise and property of The San Franc'sco
San
Joaquin Valley Railway Company were sold April 1st to

& Santa Fe Railway Company, and
an integral part of the latter, although still operated separately as a matter of convenience.

SAN FRANCISCO TERMINALS.

By virtue

of a contract with the Harbor Commissioners of
San Francisco, approved by the Legislature, a lease has been
made for fifty years of the tract of partially submerged land
known as " China Basin," containing about thirty-five acres.
The conditions of the lease are that, in addition to a nominal
rental, the Terminal Company shall build a sea-wall and reclaim the land from the tide. There have also been purchased by the Santa Fe Terminal Company certain lots
south of and adjoining "China Basin," containing about
seventeen acres. In order to obtain material for the work
of reclamation, it has been found advisable to purchase additional real estate in San Francisco to the value of upward
of $400,000. Tne cost of improvements on the water front is
estimated at $750,000. The work of building the sea-wall
has already been commenced. The entire premises can
hardly be ready for full occupancy in less than two yea:s,
but meantime- partial u?e thereof is being made by means
of piling. When completed, your terminals in San Francisco, in addition to those used at present, will thus consist
of about fifty-two acres on the water front with total water
frontage of 3.811 feet, together with about forty-six acres
located slightly inland, which latter may be sold or used for
railway purposes as may be deemed advisable.

have been made a special deposit with the Guaranty Trust
Company of New York, which sum does not appear in any
form in the operating accounts of the Railway Company as
herein stated.

COAL STRIKE.
In February occurred a strike in the coal mines of The
Colorado Fuel & Iron Company, at Gallup, New Mexico,
which for a time threw our business into some confusion
and resulted in a considerable addition to our operating
expenses, as well as loss of receipts.

The line between Albuquerque and Barstow depended
almost wholly on these mines, and, as the coal was of
engines were specially fitted for
peculiar quality, the
burning it alone. The introduction of coals from New
•Mexico, Kansas, Missouri and Illinois not only enormously
increased the cost of fuel, but greatly impaired the efficiency of our power, and this at the time when our trans'
continental business was at its heaviest— the result being
dissatisfaction to our patrons and piactical retirement from
certain classes ot business for nearly sixty days. Notwithstanding this, the increase in gross earnings has been steady
and continuous.

OBITUARY.
Your Company sustained great loss by the death, April
12, 1901. of

Aldace

F.

Walker, who had been identified with

the property for nearly seven years; first, as one of its
Receivers, and, since the reorganization, as one of its Directors and its Chairman. Mr. Walker was widely known as a
writer upon economic and transportation subjects, and was
universa ly respected and liked by his associates. Your
Directors will long and sadly miss his accurate business
methods, his wise counsel and his engaging personality.

NetDeorease.

During the past liscal year the commuted rental payable
under the lease of the St. Louis Peoria & Northern Railway
Company, as explained in the annual reports for the past
two years, has been regularly paid in monthly instalments
by the Guaranty Trust Company, Trustee, of the Fund, and
included in Earnings. This fund is sufficient to pay the
rentals due under the St. Louis Peoria & Northern Railway
Company Lease until January 1, 1904 thereafter the income
receivable under the leass is protected, until December 31,
1997, by an agreement between this Company and Messrs.
Edward H. Harriman, Jacob H Schiff, James Stillman and
George J. Gould, who have jointly and severally agreed
" that on or before the first day of January, 1904, they will
cause the Chicago & Alton Railroad Company, or some other
corporation satisfactory to the Terminal Company as to responsibility, to become the successor of the St. Louis Company as lessee under said lease of October 1, 1898."
The rental receivable from the Chicago Great Western
Railway Company will be increased at the rate of $15,000
per annum commencing April 1st, 1902, and also for an
amount equal to six per cent per annum on the cost of a
four-story Freight House built of brick and steel at Chicago,

INOOME FROM TRAFFIC.
The last annual report stated that the policy of the management would be to develop so far as practicable the
traffic interests of the Company.
The result of this policy
is shown by a gratifying increase of earnings, viz.
From

and Switching—

This increase was due to the enlarged volume of traffic. The
traffic increased to such an extent that the facilities of the
Company were severely taxed and the available power had
to be overworked until the situation was relieved by the
addition of six large consolidation freight locomotives ordered early in the fiscal year but not received until just
fore its close. The amount expended for Locomotive Repairs increased from $90,201 0<> in the fiscal year 1900 to
|70,581 71 in the liscal year 1001, an Inorease of $50,270 65, or
These expenditures amounted to an average
171 8 per cent.
of $2,410 for the year per locomotive in service. The equip
ment is now in good condition and with the addition of the
six new large freight engines the expenditures In this department for the next fiscal year should be materially decreased, as the power available both in number and quality
of locomotives is fairly well adapted to the volume and
character of traffic to be handled.

Conducting Tkansi-obtation.

The Conducting Transportation Expenses increased from
$297,058 00 in the fiscal year 1900 to $432,657 23 in the bsoal
year 1901, an increase of $135,599 23, or 45*6 per oent, against
an increase of $179,981 94, or 3'J-4 per oent, in Traffic Receipts.
While at first glance this might be considered an unsatis
factory showing, the cause is entirely logical. The efforts
to increase the traffic of the Company bore fruit before enlarged facilities could be furnished. The result was a congestion which materially added to the cost of transportaThe traffic has been held and is increasing in volume

as compared with last year, but the facilities are now more
nearly adequate to handle it, and the benefits will be reflected in the accounts for the next fiscal year.
Other
causes for increased expenses in this department were increased cost of fuel and additional contribution towards
payment of joint expenses, due to increased wheelage, thus
reducing the proportion of expenses otherwise payable by
tenants. The transportation expenses for the fiscal year
1901 absorbed 56 per oent of the receipts from traffic. The
month of July, 1901, the first month of the new fiscal year,
the same expenses absorbed only 478 per cent of the receipts
from traffic, as against 54*5 per cent for July, 1900. It is exEected that this improvement in operating efficiency will

taxes and general expenses accumulated during the last five
years claimed as due from one of the principal tenants of
the Terminal property, under the terms of its lease. The
dispute is as to the interpretation of the lease and the Company feels confident that its position will be sustained by
continuance of present negotiations, by arbitration in accordance with the terms of the lease, or by friendly suit
and that the full amount claimed will be collected. Your
Board deemed it proper to draw attention to the matter in
this Report, and also, out of abundant caution, to set aside
a fund amounting to $132,822 83, accumulated as profits on
Treasury Securities sold, as a contingent reserve fund to
provide against any possible depreciation in the amount to
be realized from these accounts or similar accounts to be
rendered before the dispute is finally settled. This contingent reserve fund is shown on the Balance Sheet, and included in the foregoing statement as a contingent liability.

Speculation in cotton for future delivery has been on a
more extensive scale, there being considerable activity to the
trading during the latter part of the week. During the first
half there was a comparatively small market and prices
yielded slightly. Despite the strength of the statistical position, European spinners were reported as slow in making
purchases; thus the speculative market felt the presture
of selling by exporters as a hedge againet purchases in the
South. Domestic spinners have been reported as fair buyers
in the Southern markets, but this demand alone bas not sufficed to absorb the increasing offerings with the freer movement of the crop. The weekly Bureau report was unfavorable, but as there was little or no speculative support, prices
made only a temporary rally. On Thursday, however, the
monthly report issued by the Agricultural Bureau, and which
made the average condition of the crop on Sept. 25th 61*4, a
decline of 10 points for the month, gave a decidedly different
complexion to the market. The report was much lees favorable than generally expected, and brought in free buying to
cover contracts, and also induced free buying for investment
account; prices advanced sharply. To-day there was a fairly
active and higher market early, reflecting decidedly stronger
foreign advices and buying to cover short eales. Later there
was a reaction under realizing sales. The close was steady
at unchanged prices to 3 points advance. Cotton on the spot
has been firmer, closing at 8 3 gC. for middling uplands.
The rates on and off middling, as established Nov. 21, 1900,
by the Revision Committee, at which grades other than
middling may be delivered on contract, are as follows.

THE CHRONICLE,

—

These reports on cotton are summarized by the Depart-

ment

as follows:
The weather conditions In the cotton belt have been very favorable for picking, except over portions of Georgia, Florida and North
Carolina, where this work has been retarded to some extent by rains
of the latter part of the week. Picking has progressed rapidly In the
central and western districts, where ootton has opened rapidly, the
bulk of the crop being gathered In s^rne sections. Over the eastern
portion of the ootton belt the low temperatures of the week were rot
favorable for the development of the top crop, and heavy rains have
damaged the staple In portions of North Carolina, Georgia and Florida, while the Sea Island crop of South Carolina Is suffering from
drought. In Texas late ootton Is being damaged by boll weevil and
other insects, and the outlook for top crop Is very poor.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
New

York. Friday. P. M., Oct. 4. 1901.
At the close of the week it would seem as though the
course of raw cotton were likely to again become a potent
factor in the market for cotton goods. The deterioration of
the cotton crop during September, as shown in the monthly
orop reports of the Government, followed by the advance in
the staple, have caused at the close of the week a stiller attitude than before on the part of a number of sellers, and
brought out more inquiries from some of the larger operators.
Daring the early part of the week the market showed no
material change in conditions, the demand continuing indifferent in all departments, with the general tone well maintained. The situation in Fall River is attracting much attention, owing to the unsettled relations between the manufacturers and the operatives. The probability of a strike has
caused a livelier demand for goods likely to be affected, as
should work be interrupted a higher market is practically
assured.

MUNICIPAL BOND SALES IN SEPTEMBER.
According to our records, $14,288,456 of municipal
bonds were put out during the month of September.
This aggregate far exceeds the total for September
of any preceding year, aud is more than twice the
average for September of the previous nine years.
These exceptional figures, however, upon analysis, are
seen to possess much less significance than might be
supposed.
