the breadstuffs movement at the dif
ports, there are one or two features that
deserve notice.
For instance, Boston has a decrease,
though New York, Baltimore and Philadelphia, all
have an increase.
Examining the figures a little
more
closely, we find that the decrease at Boston is
due entirely to the contraction in the corn movement, for
respects

erent

in wheat

and

flour

there

was

an

increase.

Instead of

982,296 bushels of corn, as last year, Boston only sent out
5,385 bushels in August, 1882, and this reduced values
about

$625,000. San Francisco also shows a decrease in
exports, but here the diminution is solely
in
wheat, the cause for which is evident. Last year San
Francisco had a large surplus of wheat left over from
its breadstuffs

the

preceding season, and there being a deficiency east
of the
Rocky Mountains, it had no difficulty in disposing
of the
same, and consequently its exports were unusually
heavy. This year there is no such surplus from the previ¬
ous
year, and there being a full supply on the Atlantic
*oast, San Francisco occupies a less prominent position. A
small decrease therefore in its total is not
surprising. New
Orleans, on the other hand, presents a very noticeable
^crease,

shipments which makes up a large part of the remain¬
der of the five millions decrease, only about 82,( 00 bales
being exported in August, 1882, against about 128,000
bales in August, 1881.
Imports continue very large. The total for August is
$65,697,595, or but a trifle below the total for. July,
and for full six months now this high average hasbeen maintained, a thing unprecedented in our history..

to enter into consumption as fast as received.
We called
attention in our previous review to the larger stocks ac¬
cumulating in warehouses since the early part of the year,,
but such additions are usual during the summer months;
when merchants are preparing for the fall and winter trade,,
and this therefore did not occasion surprise.
A movement
in the opposite direction seems already to have begun, for
while at the end of July the total in warehouses was
reported at $38,268,713, at the end of August it was
reported at only $34,337,885, a reduction of four millions
in one month.
It is clear that these heavy imports, if
continued, will go a great ways towards lessening previousyears’ large favorable balances.

September, we should say that we Had not* as yet made

others interested in the Tehuantepec Inter-ocean Railroad
was held this week at the office of Mr. Edward
Learned, the
President, at No. 52 Broadway. From the World it is learned
that a report was made by Mr. Tyng, who is the General
Director in Mexico of the company, relative to the condition of
the road there. After some discussion a committee of seven

appointed to represent the bondholders in the settlement
the Republic of Mexico. “The
original estimates of the cost of the undertaking were that

of the claim of the company on

$6,000,000 would be needed for the construction of the railroad
and $1,000,000 for the providing of requisite seaport facilities.
The company was organized in the State of Massachusetts with
a nominal capital of $1,500
—being placed at this figure to
avoid taxation—but the capital was afterwards increased to
$20,000,000, of which $14,000,000 is in common stock and
$6,000,000 in preferred stock. There are also first mortgage
bonds amounting to $6,000,000.
The face value of these secur¬
ities has never been paid in, but about $3,000,000 was raised,
and the officers of the company maintain that the outfit, sup¬

plies, material and work furnished by the company represent
expenditures and liabilities amounting to that total.”
The immediate difficulties of the road have been precipitated
by the forfeiture by the Government of Mexico of the conces¬
sion held by the company because of the non-completion of
forty miles of road by the second of May last, according to
the grant. A circular issued by the President was published in
substance in the Chronicle of September 2, on page 267.
The committee appointed to represent the bondholders was
as follows :
Alfred S. Barnes of New York, N. Y.; Henry W.
Sage of Ithaca, N. Y.; Jos. R. Bod well of Hallo well, Me.; Cyrus
H. McCormick of Chicago, Ill.; GeorgeS. Coe, of New York, N.
Y.; Ben. F. Butler of Lowell, Mass.; Henry Day of New York,

Western Pennsylvania.—B. K. Jamison & Co., in Phila¬
delphia, announce the issue of $400,000 first mortgage 6 per
cent thirty-yearbonds of the Western Pennsylvania & Shenango
Connecting Railroad Company. This is an issue at the rate of
$17,000 per mile upon the new railway, which extends the
Western Pennsylvania Railroad from Butler to Coalville, where
it connects with the Shenango & Allegheny Valley Railroad.
Western Union Telegraph—Mutual Union Telegraph.—
Dr Norvin Green, President of the Western Union Telegraph
Company, when questioned by a reporter of the Evening Post
in regard to the announcement that the Western Union and
Mutual Union companies were to be consolidated,
replied that
the report was absolutely without foundation.
The idea of
consolidating the two companies had not even’been considered.
They were separate and distinct corporations, which were
managed with entire independence of each other.
The
Western Union Company owned a large amount of Mutual
Union stock, but it had never claimed to possess a controlling
interest.
There were some agreements between the two
companies as to rates for press service, etc.,, but the harmony
in tneir arrangements was only such as sometimes existed
between competing railroads.
President J. G. Moore of the
Mutual Union Telegraph Company also said that he knew of
nothing whatever which could serve as a basis for the report.
—The Weekly Official Intelligence is the title of a new pub¬
lication commenced in July last in London, under the author¬
ity of the Stock Exchange of that city, and compiled under the
superintendence of the Secretary of the Share and Loan De¬
partment. The subscription price is £2 per annum, and as this
publication gives all the current news in regard to securities,
&c., &c., it is well worth while for bankers and stock brokers in
this country to become regular subscribers. The publisher is

“The decision of the United States Supreme Court in
respect to the validity of the foreclosure of the first mortgage
of the Chicago Danville & Vincennes Railroad,
temporarily
affected the securities of this company; but the Court has
granted a rehearing in this case, and we are advised by counsel
that the title of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad Com¬

valuable portion of its franchises and leases is not in any way

At the conclusion of the stockholders’ meeting the

the road stated that there is no truth whatever in the report
that a consolidation of their company with the Louisville &
Nashville Company was contemplated. The consolidation with
the Evansville & Terre Haute will be made as soon as the litiga¬
tion with the Danville & Vincennes is out of the way, and the
case will have a hearing before the United States Supreme
Court on the 11th of this mouth. The Louisville & Nashville
has a small interest in the road, and for this reason was given

representation of two members in the directory.
Chicago St. Louis & New Orleans.—The earnings of the
company have decreased thus far this year about $350,000, as
compared with those of the same period in 1881, owing to loss
of business caused by the floods last spring. This loss is ex¬
pected to be made up within the year, as the best season for
business is at hand.
Two proposed branches have been sur¬
veyed, and contracts for building the one from Jackson, Miss.,
to Yazoo City have been awarded.
Of the new 5 per cent gold
bonds authorized to cancel old bonds, about $10,450,000 have
been issued. Holders of the old 7 and 8 per cent bonds are un¬
willing to surrender them, as they have two, four, eight or fif¬

Georgia Pacific.—The Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution reports
that work on the Georgia Pacific is progressing rapidly. A
construction train will be sent to Anniston in a few days to be
used in track-laying from that place toward Atlanta. Work on
the twenty-four miies beyond Anniston to the Coosa River is to
be pushed rapidly and will be completed early in January. In
a few weeks trains will be running to Anniston if no unlooked
for trouble occurs. The principal work now being done on this
aide of Anniston is on a tunnel, and of course cannot be hurried.
The track-laying, however, is to be pushed so that very little
their intention to

work will remain to be done when the tunnel is completed.

points
where the Erie is in need of better facilities. Thealong the line
contract will
expire in September, 1884, at which time both roads expect to
have their new connections, and other
arrangements completed.
This is an important move on the part of both
roads, giving, as
it does, to the Nickle Plate
probably the best terminal facilities
to be obtained in Buffalo, and an immense
yard, where the
traffic of both roads can be handled
jointly.”

Monday was very depressed and Tuesday opened weak, but
there was an advance for the day ; the close, however, was
dull, and on Wednesday prices declined again to about the
lowest figures of Tuesday morning.
On Thursday there was
renewed buoyancy, but the final close was at some decline
from the best figures of the day.
To-day there was an early
advance of 10@16 points ; then the market became quiet and
easy, and closed unsettled.
Cotton on the spot declined stead¬

were reduced %c. on Saturday,

Tuesday and J^c. on Wednesday. Stocks are still small and
the business quite moderate, whether fer export or home con¬

through shipments to foreign markets. Yesterday all grades
but middlings were reduced l-16@l^c.

plentiful and have not sold so readily as some
grades. To-day there, was a good jobbing trade in most
kinds of flour, and the market in general was quite firm.
Wheat has been only fairly active for export, some advance
in prices as well as a depressed market for
foreign exchange
tending to reduce the foreign movement. The speculation has
been pretty brisk at advancing prices, the rise being
from 3e.
to 4c. per bushel.
This has been brought about by an advauco
in Chicago, where the receipts have suddenly fallen off quite
materially, and where efforts are said to be making to corner
not only October but November as well. These manoeuvres as.
well as the reduced receipts have led to considerable coveringnot only in Chicago, but in this market; though there has been
somewhat less inclination here of late to follow blindly what¬
ever course that market may take.
To-day there was a fair
business here at irregular prices, the market opening
higher, but the advance being lost later on; No. 2 red sold at
$1 08/£@$l 09% for October, $1 09/£@#l 10/6 for November,

New York has shown an important reduction of late. Themarket closes weak to-night, the last sales being at $1 08% for
October, $1 09% for November, $1 10% for December, $1 08/4
for the year, $1 12 for January and $1 13% for February.
