But this argument hardly survived the episode in the history of the Cordage Company itself, which followed swiftly on its return to corporate secrecy. When representatives of the bankruptcy courts took this company's accounts in hand, they found that the facts which the directors objected to making public were facts which would have disclosed of the some wildly reckless by "Cordage" shares deed, it financiering. The part played in the panic of 1893, which, in really introduced by falling from 147, on pay- ment of an unearned dividend, to 9f four months later on its declaration of insolvency, convinced the majority of thinking people that these great masses of stock plunging about in the sea of Wall Street speculation, with not a light to warn the rest of the market where they really stood, were a distinct and formidable menace. Nevertheless, the companies yielded very slowly to the demand for information. The Stock Exchange at one time endeavored to enforce some greater degree of publicity, but it went no further than exacting reasonably full reports of condition at the time when sought to have their shares formally In a few cases State authorities, by threat of hostile action against the business of a combination, extorted annual reports from companies which were withholding them. This was done by the State of Massachusetts in 1898, when the Sugar Company had failed to submit its usual annual balance sheet to But, taking the situation as a whole, shareholders. it must be admitted that the majority of industrial corporations whose shares are actively dealt in on the Stock Exchange give no more information to investors or the public than they or their predecessors companies "listed." did ten years ago. This is a somewhat remarkable result, in view of the immense increase in the amount of such securities since the financial revival began in 1898. The discussion has lately, however, come to a more decided focus a natural result of disappointment over the outcome of the last year's operations in a number of such combinations. The average investor asks few — questions while his money and pushes company makes more and more its shares higher and higher on the this plicated of all the industrial combinations can make a statement even of monthly earnings, and is willing to do so.

This phase of the matter can hardly fail to come up before Congress jin the approaching session, for the reason that the Industrial Commission, which for two years has labored on the problem, will then make its report. That report will certainly touch the question of earn" Many of the witnesses," says the ings statements.

In the case of the Louisville & Nashville, we do not think it applies at all.

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 curities. 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 In 1901. JlUlUHTT [Vol. LXXIII. 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 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 showed a decrease in bullion of £1,480 067 and the per centage of reserve to liabilities was 4861, against 54 06 last week; the discount rate remains unchanged at 3 per cent. The Bank of France shows a decrease of 18,825,000 francs in gold and 3,075.000 francs in silver. The New York City Clearlng-House banks in their statement of Sept 28 showed an mcrease in the reserve held of $4,161,400. and a surplus over the required reserve of $16.293 025, against «13.6 r> 1.225 the previous week. - inferences 1901 Sept. 1900 SepL 29 from 28 previous week $ Capital Loans A discounts Circulation Net deposits Specie Legal tenders 81.722,700 96.211.500 867.6o9.700 30,672.600 936.452.300 178,936,400 71,469,700 Beeerveheld 250,406,100 Ino Legal reserve 234,113,076Ino 4 161.400 1,522,600 16,293,025 Inc 2,638,800 Surplus Surplus reserve Ino Deo Ino Ino Ino ! s-j'.,; — Dnl ted states Bonds.

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- & — Standard to 75. ties stock, which sold down from 7S Monday at 722 and Oil has teen irregular.

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. MAINTENANCE OF ROAD AND STRUCTURES.

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 Betterment Account was established for the purpose of THE CHRONICLE. 736 creating a fund which could be used for Improvements on auxiliary lints not covered by our own mortgage, and for BOOh other betterments as it seemed beet for various reasons not to capitalize.

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 It freratio," but are none the less mistakes in practice, quently happens that the revenue of the stockholders may be increased by measures which tend directly to inert a^e the operating ratio. — ; [Vol. LXXIII.

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. The Atchison Topeka now form 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. — The receipts from this source $257,447 24 necessary. 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. BHHSHaDHB GENERAL CONDITIONS.

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, ; now nearing completion.

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 Freight and Switching— Gross Earnings 1901 Gross Earnings 1900 739 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. I - 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 tion. 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 e continued during the year. General Expenses. This department showed an increase entirely to increased volume of traffic. of $4,805 84, due BRIDGES. The Scherzer rolling lift bridge across the Drainage Canal at 31st Street on the Chicago Central Division, referred to in $154,666 47 the last Annual Report, has been completed and turned over 213,419 to this Company by the Sanitary District of Chicago.

As explained in previous aunual reports, the maintenance of this Company's tracks and other property is divided be- Bonds. The amount of bonds outstanding has not been changed during the past year, no requisition having been made upon the Trustee under the Mortgage for bonds to reimburse the Treasury for capital expenditures made during the year, the funds for such purposes having been advanced from the current resources of the Company and from proceeds of the sale of its free Treasury Securities. of Debt and Intebest.

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. Fair o. on Strict Good Mid.

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. s) is ii s o ^—9 2 ; • 1 a li gs _ P a; § '• ' g: ; °: % E i-i i s fsgg^s I Ss • Si! 0> tie i lis w m ©to "cob 0>— go to .
