Hie full detail* of clearing* for the week covered by the
above statement will be given next Saturday. We cannot, of
course, furnish them to-day, bank clearings being made up by
the various clearing house* at noon on Saturday, and hence in
the above the last twenty-four hours of the week have to be
in all cases estimated, as we go to press Friday night.
Our usual detailed figures for the previous week, covering
the returns for the period ending with Saturday noon, Sep
tember 9, as well as the comparative totals in 1892. are given
below. The aggregate of exchanges shows a gain o f more
than thirty-one million dollars over the previous week, but at
New York there is a less of ten millions. Contrasted with
tli« corresponding period of 1893, all but five of the cities
record losses, and in the aggregate for the whole country

T E E F IN A N C IA L SITU ATIO N .
Perhaps a little less of buoyancy has been observable
this week. That does not indicate any loss of confi
dence, but a disposition to await the unbending of
Senatorial dignity, and in the meantime, so far as
concerns the discounting of favorable expectations, to
make haste slowly. Confidence in the full revival of
business if the obnoxious law can soon be repealed has
rather increased than lessened. That could hardly be
otherwise under the daily improving conditions. This
week many announcements have been made, as in
recent weeks, of the opening of the doors of suspended
banks and the resumption of business by manufactur
ing concerns which closed during the financial stress.
But probably the most important feature is the im
proving condition of money all over the country. At
this centre our banks gained again largely in reserve
according to their report last Saturday, and have made
a further important addition the current week. Bates
for time loans, too, have grown easier, and so have the
rates for commercial paper, the promise being that this
tendency will continue to brcaden and develop. Some
progress has likewise been made in the retirement of
Clearing House certificates by our banks, the total
retired during the week reaching $2,905,000 ; the
amount still outstanding yesterday was $34,535,000.
Should favorable action be taken by the Senate at the
close of the coming week on the repeal measure, the
withdrawal of these certificates would thereafter be
very rapid.
As to the progress of the Senate towards a vote on the
repeal bill, nothing of a definite character can be re
corded as yet. The debate (if courtesy requires us to still
call it such) has become extremely tiresome to the pub
lic, and appeals from commercial classes in various sec
tions of the country continue to be sent up to the Senate
urging immediate action. The hope that the end is
drawing near has been encouraged by a notice Senator
Voorhees gave on Wednesday of a desire to have the
debate ended on a week from that day and a vote taken
on the bill next week Saturday at two o’ clock. Objec
tion was immediately made to this suggestion so that no
action was taken upon it, but the information from
Washington is that the leaders in the repeal movement
have settled upon a plan for bringing about a vote, that
the plan will be developed the coming week, that the
end of the debate will not be much longer delayed, and
that the majority for repeal is sure to be large. This
prolonging of the suspense, though, endangers greatly
the speediness of a full recovery.
The money market, as already remarked, has shown
a tendency towards- easier rates, though to draw the
proper inference from that statement one must remem
ber how difficult it was only three weeks ago to obtain
money other than on call except at very high figures.
On call, representing bankers’ balances, the extremes
have been 7 and 3 per cent; in explanation of the
higher rate it should be stated that it was recorded on
Tuesday afternoon just before the close of business,
(Y ol . l m t .
that it was due to manipulation for effect on the stock
market, that very little was loaned at that rate, and that
the average for the week was not over 4 per cent. R e
newals have been made at 4 and 5 per cent ind banks
and trust companies still quote 6 per cent as the mini
mum. Time money is in only fair demand. There
are reports that loans have been made at 5 per cent for
thirty days and at 6 per cent for ninety days on mixed
collateral readily marketable on the Exchange and at
6 per cent for six months on dividend paying stocks
and interest-bearing bonds. It is to be said of these re
ported transactions that they are certainly exceptional
and therefore not correctly quotable as representing
the market; a fair quotable rate is 6 per cent for ninety
days on first-class collateral. The amount of money
offering is not large and chiefly by institutions other
than banks or trust co npanies, it being understood
that very few banks and trust companies are
prepared to loan for fixed periods. Commercial paper
is not in active demand, but the demand is improving;
sales are chiefly confined to out-of-town banks and a
few individual buyers. The suspension of a prominent
house dealing in clothiers’ trimmings, though having
assets considerably above liabilities, has induced closer
scrutiny of names offered.
Quotations for paper are 8
per cent for the best endorsements, ranging up to 12
per cent for a very good class of names.
The Bank of England reduced the minimum rate of
discount on Thursday to 4 per cent from 5 per cent, at
which it had stood since August 24.
The cable re
ports discounts of sixty to ninety day bank bills in
London 2 f per cent; the open market rate at Paris
is 2J per cent; at Berlin it is 4 f per cent,
and at Frankfort 4 f per cent. A ccording to our special
cable from London the Bank of England gained £616,706 bullion during the week and held at the close
£26,890,001.
Our correspondent further advises us
that the gain was due to an import of £355,000 (of
which £242,000 was from Australia, £15,000 from
Portugal, £11,000 from France, £10,000 from Austria
and £77,000 bought in the open market), to receipts
from the interior of Great Britain of £302,000, and to
the export of £40,000 to Roumania.
For foreign exchange the market has been dull and
generally heavy this week. It was steady on Monday ;
weak on Tuesday, mainly in consequence of a light in
quiry, importing houses being unable freely to rem it;
on Wednesday lower discounts in London had some
effect, but in addition to that there were also some
what liberal offerings of provision bills and moderate
amounts of spot grain drafts and cotton futures
which helped depress the market. On Thursday the
tone was again heavy in the morning but firmer in the
afternoon, and one feature was a good inquiry for cable
transfers at about one cent per pound sterling above
the rate for sight bills, the demand coming from par
ties who were remitting in settlement of credits which
had been deferred because money could be used to so
great advantage in our market. The arbitrage operations
for the week have shown an excess of sales of stocks, but
they have had very little influence, and it is probable
that the selling has been chiefly to realize profits. So
far as the foreign bankers can judge, there is a pretty
confident feeling abroad regarding American securities,
and this o f course would be increased by the ending
of suspense concerning the currency question which
would follow the passage of the repeal measure. The
following table shows the daily changes in rates by the
leading drawers.

The market closed steady yesterday at 4 33 to 83)
for sixty day and 4 85) to 4 864 for sight. Rites for
actual business were 4 824 to 4 824 for lo n g ; 4 84$ to
4 85 for short; 4 85} to 4 86 for cable transfers; 4 814
to 4 814 for both prime and doeamentary commercial
bills. The arrivals o f gold during the week have been
1908,000 on La Gascogne from Havre, #500,000 Spanish
gold on the Yucatan from Havana, #240,125 on the
Britannic and #8,750 on the Fuerst Bismarck.
Crop conditions attract much les3 attention than
usual, since the developments of the last few weeks
have marie the general industrial situation the influence
of most importance
However, it deserves to be noted
that the expectation of large crops the present year,
more particularly in the case of corn, is not to be
realized. The Agricultural Department at Washing
ton has issued its September report, and it shows that
owing to a continuance of drouth over wide sections of
the country, there was a pretty general deterioration
daring August in nearly all the leading crops, reducing
very materially the averages of condition. In corn
there has been a decline from 87 August 1 to 76• 7
September 1, in oats a decline from 78*3 to 74-9, and
in cotton a decline from 80*4 to 73 4. Tne following
compares the September condition figures of this year
with those of the years preceding.

It will be observed that except in the case of wheat,
where we have a very large surplus left over from
previous years, the averages are not greatly below those
of last year, and the inference therefore is that the
yield will not differ much from that year Of course
as compared with 1891 the falling off is very striking,
but 1891, as will be remembered, was a year of phe
nomenal harvests. As regards corn, the average tbis
year at 76*? contrasts with 79*6 last year, but here an
important fact should not be overlooked, namely, that
the acreage the present year is much larger than
for 1892. Estimates favor a total crop about the
same as last year, when the country, according to the
Agricultural Department, raised 1,628 million bushels.
Further below we show the averages of condition for
the leading corn-pr<xlncing States. It will be seen
that the loss is chiefly in the Middle Western
States, Illinois showing an average condition of
only 64 against 70 last year, Indiana only 59 against
75, and Ohio 64 against 79. I i these States a
po>r corn yield counts for less than it would further
West, since the section is not a purely agricultural one,
population being large and manufacturing quite ex
tensive.
On the other hand, west of the Mississippi
the averages for some of the States are very high. Tuns

In Kansas the average is put only slightly above
last year, namely 73 against 70, though the esti
mates of the State authorities point to a crop of about
200 million bushels.
The annual report of the Cleveland Cincinnati Chi
cago & St. Louis, issued this week, shows that the
management, which is among the ablest and most pro
gressive in th- country, has not had a very easy
time during the twelve months. G oss earnings were
fully maintained— in fact were slightly increased— but
net earnings fell off almost half a million dollars, being
reduced from #4,177,209 to #3,704,269, and the ratio
of o p 'r u in g expenses to earninga was raised to
nearly 75 per cent— 74*74 per cent. As a result of this
loss iu net income the company fell #362,002 short of
earning the 3 per cent dividend paid on the common
shares, and accumulated surplus had to be drawn upon
to that extent. This is for the " B ig Four” proper.
Some of the leased roads, notably the Peoria & Eastern,
show heavy deficits in meeting their charges, and the
Big Four has had to advance the money to make up
the deficiencies. Taking all the roads operated gross
earnings decreased #62,637, while net fell off #732,316,
The heavy expenses have arisen from three cause*-—
first the lack of adequate facilities for the interchange
of business at various junction points, adding greatly
to the cost of the work; secondly, the rather liberal
outlays made with a view to correcting this defect and
charged directly to operating expenses, and, thirdly,
the increase in wages made in 1890. Mr. Ingalls says
that the operations since the advance h ive demonstra
ted that in that settlement the employes received more
than their share, and an adjustment ought to be mado
upon an equitable basis. Tois statement is important,
as the company has latterly announced its intention
to reduce wages, and the employes seem rather
inclined to oppose the attempt. The balance sheet
shows an increase in the bills payable from #403,425 on
June 30, 1892, to #1,922,001' June 30, 1893. Mr.
Ingalls says, however, that two millions of the new con
solidated bonds have been sold since the close of the
fiscal year and the proceeds applied to the reduction of
these bills payable. Authority was given to sell alto
gether five million dollars of the new bonds to provide
for additional terminals and equipment, and other im
provements ; the remaining #3,000,000 of the bonds,
Mr. Ingalls states, will be sold whenever the market
warrants, and the sale will furnish the means f-»r the

new capital expenditures incurred, “ and leave the
company without any floating debt except deferred
payments on equipment as shown in the Auditor’ s
statement.” It is believed that through these improve
ments and an adjustment of wages expenses can be
brought down to a normal level.
We referred last week to the great reduction in the
production of pig iron which has recently taken place.
One of the effects of this is seen in the curtailment of
the shipments of iron ore. From the statement of the
traffic shipments for the St. Mary’ s Falls, or “ Soo,”
canal during August, we see that only 688,840 tons of
iron ore passed through the canal in August, 1893,
against 958,774 tons in August,
1892, which
means of course that the ore-carrying roads to
the Lakes suffered a reduction of their traffic in that
class of freight. The flour and wheat shipments
through the canal were larger than a year ago, the
flour shipments being 964,845 bbls. against 760,860
bbls., and the wheat shipments 4,369,885 bushels
against 3,121,253 bushels. In the west-bound move
ment coal is the chief item, and this shows shipments
of 420,593 tons for August, 1893, against 414,448 tons
fo r August, 1892. Notwithstanding the gain in coal,
the total freight shipments west bound this year were
(lightly smaller than last year, being 470,858 tons
against 472,390 tons. In the east-bound movement
the total, on account of the decrease in ore, stands at
only 1,109,252 tons against 1,300,341 tons.
A lto
gether, therefore, the month’ s tonnage through the
canal, east bound and west bound, was 1,580,110 tons
against 1,772,731 tons.
It is rather interesting to note that at present Eng
lish railways are showing losses in earnings just as
striking as our own. Thus for the latest week the
London & Northwestern reports a decrease of $213,330,
the Midland a decrease of $321,485, the Great West
ern a decrease of $134,900, the Great Northern a
decrease of $89,575, the Great Eastern a decrease of
$73,930, the Sheffield a decrease of $69,785, &c. In
the case of the Midland the receipts from the goods
traffic were but one-half the amount for last year— that
is, only $301,265 against $601,635. As a consequence
o f this falling off the roads are reducing train service,
and in various other ways seeking to curtail expenses.
T h e explanation of the heavy losses is very simple.
In Great Britain, as in the United States, there has
been a stoppage of the wheels of industry, but from a
totally different cause. Some two hundred to three
hundred thousand coal miners have been on a strike
for several weeks, and this has cut off the supply of
fuel, so that industrial establishments in great num
bers have had to stop business. As a result the roads
have lost not only their coal traffic but also important
portions of their traffic in other freight.

STO CK OF GOLD N EED ED A F T E R R E P E A L .
W e have been asked for our opinion with reference
to the stock of gold the United States will need, to
keep its currency convertible and its commerce sup
plied after the silver purchase clause of the 1890 law
has been repealed. The view advanced by those op
posing repeal in the Senate appears to be that the
amount of the metal held here will have to be largely
increased and that our imports of gold will conse
quently have to be heavy. This it is claimed will be
the result because the act will take one of the metals
out of our currency system, and as there is already a
scarcity in Europe of the other, we shall thereafter have
to join in the scramble for gold.
It is well enough to remark that even if the above
claim, that we take silver out of our currency by the
repeal, were true it would not weaken the argument
for repeal in the least, inasmuch as the struggle be
tween the metals for continuance as a measure of
values in the United States had, before the extra ses
sion was called, already gone so far as to have left no
room for doubt as to the proximity and character of its
end. For a year and a-half we have lost in each three
months a net amount of gold by export, and had this
movement not been checked by the progress made to
wards repeal, it would have continued until silver had
become the controlling metal. Thus the action of in
judicious legislation h id put us into a dilemma from
which there was no escape except through a choice of
either gold or silver. Such being the case, the large
body of our people have been quick to pronounce
which should be the standard.
That though is not the phase of the situation now
under discussion. The point our attention ha3 been
called to assumes the repeal bill passed by the Senate
and a gold standard secured so far as the proposed legisation can do if. With that accomplished, the question
arises, what is the position the country is thereby put
in as to a stock of gold ? How large a stock will be
wanted to meet our needs ? W ill the requirements of
our commerce call for large imports of that metal ?
Leaders among the silver advocates are constantly in
sisting that business will be reduced to great straits
and that we will be forced into an unending struggle
with Europe for gold. We might reply that under the
laws of trade, with our currency and commerce in com

ready markets for them., and takes its payment in what
it needs most, whether it be in gold or merchandise.
Some appear to think that if a foreign country or
bank puts a premium on gold the conditions as to its
shipment hare wholly changed. That is by no means
true. The premium only changes the relative values
of gold and merchandise in the country where it is
offered, but it does not affect gold in the ITaited States
unless the profit the premium holds out is so tempting
that our people prefer to let the gold go and take some
thing else in exchange, If the gold leaves ns under
such circumstances, it is evidence that we have no
positive need for it. Of course the exports of the
metal during the past two years under the influence of
Austria's premium were of a different character. Our
forced issues o f silver caused that outflow o f gold. Ia
other words we undervalued the metal and Austria
overvalued it, so it went from us to her. It was an
artificial not a natural movement.
But why, we ask, with the repeal of the purchasing
•clause of the 1890 silver law should we not want less
gold to secure our currency and do the work of com
merce than we have wanted in previous years ? That
change in our statutes will relieve both Earope and
America of a great fear respecting our standard of
values, which has been growing since 1879. It is of no
use to deny the existence of such a fear during all of
the years subsequent to that date. Indeed, we notice
that as far back as December 1879, the Secretary of
the Treasury had begun to urge the repeal of the Bland
law. In December, 1880, Senator Sherman (who was
then Secretary) said in his report (page xix): “ I
earnestly recommend that the farther compulsory
coinage of the silver dollar be suspended. * * * *
The inevitable effect of the continuance of this coin
age for a few years more will he to compel the Depart
ment to maintain its specie reserve in gold coin, irre
spective of the silver on hand, or to adopt the single
silver standard for all Government purposes.” When
that was written less than two years had elapsed since
we had adopted specie payments. The Secretary ex
pressed only in moderate terms the sentiment of all
to the risk we were
running of losing our gold standard. H jw that danger
has been increasing in degree during the thirteen years
which have intervened between that day and Septem
ber, 1893, we explained at considerable length (August
-£>, 1893, pages 199, &e.) a few weeks ago.
We
only refer to the matter now to add that an end will be
put to this fear when the repeal law shall have passed.
That being the fact, why should not our currency and
our commerce require for their maintenance less instead
o f more gold during coming years ?
There is also another thought closely allied to the
one just expressed— a thought which we have suggested
on a previous occasion. We refer to the circumstance
that our Government holdings of gold will be easily re
plenished at any moment and in any emergency under
the new condition of affairs after the repeal has been
perfected. The Secretary of the Treasury will then
have a bond to sell which will be beyond question pay
able in gold, because that metal will be the standard;
and he would find no difficulty in case of any emer
gency in placing a block of them at any financial centre
at a low rate of interest. Now, that is to say under ex
isting conditions, he could not sell the same securities
for gold
of
at a ma
terial sacrifice. This change in currency stability after
repeal would render the carrying of a moderate stock
conservative classes with reference
outside
the United States except
448
of gold safe under circumstances which would put our
currency in actual danger now. Besides if the Mint
Bureau is right we already have a very large gold stock
in the U nited States. It was given at 547jr million
dollars gold coin and 98^ million dollars gold bullion, or
645| million dollars, on September 1, 1893. To be sure it
may be said that a large part of this amount cannot be
proved to exist because it is n ot in sight, and no one
has been able to account for its disappearance satisfac
torily. Y et why in the light of what has happened of
late m iy we not say with reason that the amount
out of sight has been hoarded by individuals from time
to time during all the thirteen years whieh have elapsed
since the Secretary of the Treasury voiced public senti
ment in speaking of the danger our currency was in be
cause of silver coinage. No doubt some of it has been.
Is it then by any means unlikely that during the year or
two following the repeal of this injudicious statute,
which ha3 caused this fear, our bank reserves will be
largely replenished, not only by the outflow of the more
recent hoardings but by amounts hidden away
years ago. The large withdrawals known to have
been thus locked up during the last six months will
speedily come in sight, and the smaller lots fall in ir
regularly thereafter.
Suppose then that somewhere near this 645f m illion
dollars of gold should become apparent and available
after repeal, what call could there be for further im
ports? Teat stock, it must be remembered too, would be
fed by our annual production of
less the amount
that goes into the arts. We cannot see therefore how
the conclusion can be avoided, that after repeal we
gold,
would, so long as trade was healthy, not only be inde
pendent of gold imports but would have annually our
product, less amouut manufactured, to feed the world’s
supply. The public is not aware how little gold our
commerce actually keeps in nse. Take the period from
1861 to 1879— all the gold the banks o f the whole
country held in that period did not average 25 million
dollars. After 1865 and down to 1877 the gold h old
ings of the New York City banks averaged less than 20
million dollars, and with that all the Customs dues were
paid and all external commerce was carried on. What
we require is a currency system responsive to commerce
that will impart at homo and abroad confilenca in the
standard of values ; with that secured all the prosperity
the country could desire awaits it.
We have hardly more than touched a few of the
thoughts which crowd upon one in considering this
subject. Enough has, however, been said we think to
satisfy any unprejudiced inquirer that the position of
the U aited States with reference to a gold supply after
the repeal measure has been perfected can in no de
gree excite anxiety.

The directors of the Chicago Milwaukee & 8;. Paul
have this week declared the usual two par eeut cash
dividend on the common stock of the company. The
dividend, as was known, had been earned, and doubts
as to its being declared were based solely on the ques
tion whether in view of the present financial conditions
and the derangement of trade, industry and business,
it would be deemed wide a id expedient to make the
declaration.
The existing disturbances have affected
company adversely in two ways: first, in interfering
with the marketing of its bonds and thus causing the
the
444
THE CHRONICLE.
creation of a floating debt— a debt not large for a com
pany of the size of the St. Paul, and yet a debt which
it would be the desire to liquidate as soon as possible;
and secondly, in producing a sudden and very n ote
worthy contraction in the company’s current earnings.
In both particulars the situation would quickly change,
should the silver repeal bill speedily pass the Senate—
that is to say, that event would make it easy for the
company to dispose of its bonds abroad and thus wipe
out the floating debt, while it would at the same time
have the effect of reviving business and restoring the
company’ s earnings.
The declaration of the dividend
therefore means that the management take a hopeful
view of the future and have faith in an early return of
confidence in business and financial circles. N or does
the step lack conservatism, since while the stock gets 4
per cent the year’s earnings, as we shall presently
show, equal 6 per cent.
W e have said that the floating debt is not large. 0 utside
of the ordinary current liabilities it consists of $3,240,000 of loans and bills payable, and against this, the report
tells us, there are in the treasury of the company and
due from trustees $8,824,000 of bonds, which when the
times become propitious can be readily sold. A year
ago on June 30 there were no loans or bills payable.
President Roswell Miller states that the debt was in
curred mainly through the redemption of La (Jrosse
Division and other bonds, underlying the general
mortgage, that have matured or been retired for sink
ing fund purposes, for which a like amount of general
mortgage bonds have been or will be issued ; also
through the building of 64 miles of Milwaukee &
Northern extension, for which $1,089,000 Milwaukee
& Northern 6 per cent consolidated bonds have been
issued and are in the company’ s treasury, or due from
trustees. Mr. Miller says it was not deemed advisable
to offer bonds for sale in the present condition of the
money market, the management preferring to borrow
money temporarily to recoup the treasury funds used,
which he asserts they have been able to do withou t
difficulty. When the bonds now held shall be sold, the
floating debt will disappear, and there will still remain,
he says, in the treasury, $5,000,000 out of the $8,824,000 bonds referred to.
As concerns the ordinary current liabilities inde
pendent of the loans and bills payable, these amounted
June 30, 1893, to $6,271,458, against which the com
pany had cash offsets of $4,283,165, including $2,662,813 of actual cash and $700,000 of loans and bills re
ceivable, but not including $2,631,666 of fuel and ma
terials on hand, and of course also excluding the
$7,735,000 of St. Paul general mortgage bonds and the
$1,089,000 of Milwaukee & Northern bonds held.
I f we combine the loans and bills payable with the or
dinary current accounts, even then the aggregate of all
current liabilities only slightly exceeds 94 million dol
lars, being $9,511,458, while the company had $13,571,625 of bonds and cash assets, not counting fuel and
materials. The total of the funded debt June 30,
1893, was $130,805,500, which compares with $129,195,000 June 30, 1892, thus showing an increase of I f
million dollars. As the company’s holdings of gen
eral mortgage bonds increased in nearly the same
■amount— that is, from $5,996,000 to $7,735,000— it
would appear as if all the bonds issued during the year
remained in the treasury. But $2,890,500 of bonds
were redeemed and canceled during the twelve months,
and the increase of I f million dollars in the aggregate
o f the funded debt occurred notwithstanding that fact.
[VOL. L V II.
n
Allowing for these various changes, we calculate that
the company must have disposed of $2,762,000 of gen
eral mortgage bonds during the year. This furnished
a good part of the means for the new capital expendi
tures, $2,877,818 having been spent for new equip
ment, buildings, track, &c., during the twelve months.
Of the $2,890,500 of old bonds retired, $1,403,000
were received in exchange for preferred stock, increas
ing the amount of the preferred stock from $24,364,900 June 30, 1892, to $25,767,900 June 30, 1893. The
amount of the common stock remained unchanged at
$46,027,261. The item of fuel and materials increased
during the twelve months from $2,385,001 to $2,631,666.
When we come to examine the income statements,
we find a record of growth which shows at once how ably
this important property has been managed, and how
great has been the development of the territory tributary
to its lines. The increase of $1,691,546 in gross earn
ings in the late year would not by itself challenge at
tention; what makes it noteworthy is that it comes on
top of an increase of $4,779,284 in the preceding twelve
months, so that in two years gross earnings have risen
from $27,504,224 to $33,975,054— that is, nearly 25 per
cent; and if we carried the comparison further back,
the increase would be still more striking. The gain of
$4,779,284 in 1891-92 resulted in a gain of $2,330,779
in net, but the gain of $1,691,546 in the late year
yielded a further gain in net of only $18 443, nearly
the whole of the increase in gross having thus been ab
sorbed by augmented expenses. The augmentation in
expenses occurred mainly in maintenance of property
and in conducting transportation. The augmentation
under the latter head would of course follow necessari
ly from the increase in the amount of transportation
work done; but there was an increase of as much as$793,312, the report tells us, in maintenance of track
and bridges, and that is very important as bearing on
the ability of th e ro id to contract its outlays in that p ar
ticular, now that earnings are falling off so heavily.
No lees than 41,051 tons of steel rail and 1,745,606
cross-ties were put in the track in the late year, this
comparing with 27,852 tons of rail and 1,597,570
cross-ties in the year preceding.
The freight traffic of the road, aft -r having in
creased from 10,397,035 tons in 1891 to 11,568,930
tons in 1892, further increased to 12,26 L,705 tons in
1893. Of the 692,775 increase in the late year, 256,688 tons was in wheat, and it is significant that the
wheat tonnage for 1893 at 1,476,071 tons compares
with only 708,162 tons two years before, in 1891. W e
say this is significant, because it shows that that item
played an important part in swelling traffic and earn
ings during the last two years. It is also significant
in that it indicates that under a smaller spring-wheat
crop in the Northwest the present year a falling off in
the tonnage from that source in 1893-94 must be
expected. Lest, however, too much stress be laid on the
probability of a decline in this one item, it is well to
state that in the flour tonnage in the late year there
was no increase but rather a decrease, and that there
was also a decrease in the tonnage of rye, the tonnage
of barley, of corn, of fl ix seed, of dairy products, of
live-stock and of provisions, besides a decrease in ice,
in lime, cement and plaster, and in miscellaneous*
Thus the gain in wheat was offset by a loss in many
other items of farm products, and there is a possibility
that some of these may again increase, even if the
'wheat tonnage should fall off. Aside from wheat*

lumber, which rose from 1,891,191 to 2,038,329 tons ;
in merchandise, which rose from 841,341 to 1,135,727
tons; and in brick and stone, which rose from 482,093
to 639,945 tons. These are the items that indicate the
growth of population and the general development of
the country.
The St. Paul earned in the late year over 44 million
dollars (14,522,401) in excess of operating expenses and
fixed charges. This is sufficient to pay the fall 7
per cent on the £25,707,900 of preferred stock and
just about 6 per cent on the 146,027,261 of com mon
stock. On the basis of the 4 per cent dividends actu
ally paid, the results for the twelve months leave a sur
plus of 1877,558. It affords evidence of the important
part which our transportation bodies play in the indus
trial and social affairs of the community to say that the
St. Paul during the fiscal year 1892-93 paid over a
million dollars in taxes (81,058,319) and disbursed for
labor directly employed in its service over 144 million
dollars— 114,585,874.
THE W ABASH R A IL R O A D .
The annual report of the Wabash shows that the
-company is in easy condition financially, that during
the late year there was further development of the
traffic of the system in the face of someadverse features
in the agricultural situation, and that the physical
qualities of the property have been improved and ex
tended, but only along conservative lines.
Gross and net earnings for 1892-93 do not differ
much from the corresponding total* for 1891-92, there
being a small falling off in both gross and net— $168,887
in the gross and £143,964 in the net. But though reve
nues were somewhat less, the volumo of business increased
and was in fact the largest in the company's history.
For instance, the number of tons of freight moved for
the first time exceeded seven million tons, being 7,036,387 tons. In the year preceding, the number was
6,928,051 and the year before only 6,258,064 tons. In
the tonnage movement one mile the aggregate for
1892-93 was 1,409 millions against 1,390 and 1,209 mil
lions respectively in the two years preceding. In this
latter case, the 1892-93 aggregate has been once
exceeded, namely
in 1889-90, when the total
amounted to 1,430 millions. In the passenger traffic,
as in the freight traffic, though the changes from 1891-2
are small they reflect steady growth. In the late year
the road carried 3,934,916 passengers against 3,826,749
in 1891-2 and only 3,059,772 in 1888-89. There was
one year (1884) when the road carried as many as
4,046,577 passengers, but that was when the system
comprised 3,582 miles of road, while for 1892-93 the
average miles operated was only 1,890 miles. In the
number of passengers transported one mile the 1892-93
total is the largest ever made and reaches 177 millions
against 170 millions in 1891-92 and 150 millions in
1890-91.
This growth in the volume of business indicates at
once that the road’s traffic interests have been carefully
looked after and that the property has been kept in
proper condition to handle the increased business. 'F o r
the road is situated in a section of country where rail
road mileage i3 very plentiful and competition intense,
and where with the absence of either requisite the
traffic would go to a rival system.
Of course the ex
445
planation o f the decrease in revenues, notwithstanding
the increase in traffic, is found in a farther decline
in rates, though it i3 proper to say that the decrease
was entirely in freight and did not extend to passengers.
On account o f the competition referred to and the
large number of roads in its territory, the Wabash has
long had to do business at very low rates. In 1891-92
the average on freight was but little over 7 mills per
ton mile (7-05 mills) ; with the further decline in the
late year the average has been reduced to only 6’ 83
mills— that is, to 683 thousandths of a cent per ton
per mile.
In only one other year has the average
touched a lower figure than this.
It is significant of
the constant downward tendency of rates that the
present low average was reached under conditions more
promising than those which had previously existed)
President Ashley taking pains to state that “ there ha3
been a more general disposition amoDg competing
companies to maintain established tariffs, and to unite
upon measures to prevent the inroads of aggressive and
unscrupulous r-ate scalpers of the modern school,” and
that this has been “ a cheerful feature of the year.”
The increase in the late year’s freight tonnage,
though not large, 13 noteworthy because it occurred
notwithstanding a falling off in certain special items of
traffic, more particularly the agricultural tonnage.
Thus of com the road moved only 701,112 tons against
>79,367 tons in the year preceding, being a lots in that
one item of 178,255 tons, besides which there was a
falling off in other grain, in Hour, and in tobacco,
cotton ami sugar. But these various losses were more
than compensated for by gains in other items, these
gains being pretty well distributed through nearly the
whole range of articles, though mineral products (includ
ing coal) supplied the largest amounts. Including corn,
flour, etc., there are only 11 items that show a decrease
from 1891-92, whereas there are 22 items that show an
increase. Plainly this indicates a very general devel
opment of the traffic of the system.
The company's gross earnings for the twelve months
were 814,220,444, its net earnings 83,412,840. The
miscellaneous receipts were £319,824, and the deduc
tions for taxes and track rentals £770,379, so that the
not income available in payment of charges, &c., was
£2,962,285.
Out of this the company appropriated
£2,714,705 for obligatory interest on its bonds and the
rent of the Eel River road and £210,000 for a dividend
on tbo Class A Debentures (the full six per cent), and
had left a small surplus, £37,580. In the year preced
ing, when net earnings had been larger, the surplus
for the twelve months was 191,476. There was an in
crease in the interest charges in 1892-93 of £40,580,
due to the accretion of interest on the Detroit Division
mortgage from May 1st to June 30tb. The Detroit
Division was opened to freight business April 30th and
to passenger business May 14, 1893, and thus far, we
are told, its earning capacity has been much beyond the
expectations of the managers,
Mr. Ashley points out that it has been the policy of
the Wabash management to limit betterment expendi
tures to the means available for such purposes, and that
adherence to this policy has enabled the company to
avoid the creation of a floating debt. “ Except in
vouchers which are necessarily carried from month to
month, the company owes no floating debt other than
that included in the notes given for rolling stock,
which are payable monthly, extending over a period o f
three years, and which are charged to operating ex
penses as they mature.” As regards the ordinary cu r-

The foregoing includes besides the large decreases also
the principal increases. There are only two roads it
will bo seen that enjoy the unique distinction of having
greatly enlarged their earnings, at a time when other
roads 30 generally were suffering a heavy reduction of
their revenues. A few other roads also report earnings
better than a year ago but only in slight amounts; the
table above comprises simply changes in excess of #30,OOO, and the Illinois Central and the Chicago & Grand
Trunk (the Chicago line of the Grand Trunk of Canada)
are the only ones whose improvement is over that
amount. The Illinois Central has a gain of 1262,018, the
Chicago & Grand Trunk a gain of #108,440, the latter
being for the five weeks ending September 2 instead of
for the even month. Both roads owe their gains to
the extra passenger traffic resulting from travel to the
World's Fair.
And this directs attention to a favoring feature which
on a number of roads greatly modified the effects of
the falling off iu traffio caused by the industrial and
financial situation. Large and prominent though the
record of losses as set out above is, it would be still
larger and yet more striking except for the great in
crease in passenger travel over the leading routes to
Chicago. In the absence of adequate data, it is not of
course possible to determine to just what extent this
operated to offset the loss in freight traffic.
So far as
the data go, however, they show that it was a most im
portant influence in that direction.
1V 0 one will
question that the heavy gain on the Illinois
Central has arisen from that circumstance.
As
for the Chicago & Grand Trunk, we find that
the gain has been entirely in the passenger revenues,
these aggregating #30.3,108 for the five weeks ending
(September ^ the present year, against only #132,211
in the corresponding five weeks of last year, while on
the
other
hand the freight revenues aggrega
ted only *147,295 against *211,740. Stated in an
other way, were it not for the gain in the passenger
receipts the Chicago & Grand
Trunk instead
of having an increase of #108,449 in its total
revenues (freight and passengers combined) would
447
have a decrease of $64,445 and would thus keep th e^
majority company.
The Grand Trunk of Canada shows very similar re
sults— that is, while the road reports a small increase
over last year the passenger revenues alone are to be
credited with this favorable result, receipts iu that de
partment for the five weeks this year being $908,936,
against $782,297 last year, but freight revenues $1,065027 against $1,190,321. A m ong other illustrations
of
the
same
kind,
we
may
mention
that
the Cleveland Cincinnati Chicago & St. Louis lost
#273,167 in freight earnings during the month but
gained $27,356 iu passenger earnings, and that the
Evansville & Terre Haute lost #18,905 in freight and
gained #17,083 in passenger receipts. Of course it will
be understood that the World’ s Fair travel has been of
benefit only to the roads which by their location are inposition to get a share of the travel. On the roads not
so situated passenger revenues a3 a rule seem to have
been affected by the business prostration the same as
freight revenues, only in smaller degree.
The Ohio
& Mississippi had passenger earniugs of only $127,553
this year against $150,927 last year, the Baltimore &
Ohio Southwestern $59,003 against $63,161, the
Peoria Decatur & Evansville $17,596 against $23,003,
the Louisville Evansville & St. Louis $42,615 against
#49,224, and the Evansville & Indianapolis $9,079
’against $11,865.
Considering the results as shown in our grand aggre
gates, we find that the loss on the 134 roads which
have contributed returns to our statements reaches
over 6| million dollars— #6,344,348.
This is the loss
notwithstanding the gain in passenger earnings from
the World's Fair, Moreover though the totals cover a
very extensive mileage— altogether 90,869 miles— yet
some large systems which mu3t have lost heavily, the
Union Pacific for instance, are not represented in the
table, and hence it is certain that a complete exhibit
covering the whole railroad mileage of the country
would show a falliag off much greater than the $6,344,348 which our statement discloses. In ratio the fall
ing off is 13 per cent.
It is a noteworthy fact, too,
significant of the widespread nature of the disturbance
to which the falling off is to be attributed that out of
the 134 roads in our table only 24 are able to report
any increase, the remaining 110 all having sustained
decreases, large or small. Iu the years preceding,
August had been a pretty good month with quite con
siderable gains, as may be seen from the following:

Roads with increased earniugs being so rare, unusual
nterest attaches to those distinguished in that way,
even though the increase be in nearly all cases small.
Besides the roads already referred to above— we mean
the Illinois Central, the Chicago & Grand Trunk and
the Grand Trunk of Canada— several others owe their
gains to the Fair. The New York Central must have
derived considerable benefits from that source. The
road reports a small gain— $2,471— which, all things

THE CHRONICLE.
considered, mast be regarded as very satisfactory,
though thi3 year’s totals include the new mileage in
the Adirondack region. The gain on the Louisville
New Albany & Chicago must also be ascribed to the
Pair passenger traffic. The increase of $37,862 on the
“ S oo” road cannot, of course, be attributed to that
circum stance; the system, however, comprises a much
larger mileage than a year ago. Am ong the smaller
roads the Pittsburg Shenango & Lake Erie makes a
strikingly favorable showing.
This is the road of
which Samuel B. D ick of Meadville is President,
and which runs from Butler through the coal fields of
Western Pennsylvania to Conneaut Harbor on Lake
Erie. A t the moment the affairs of the road attract
unusual attention in view of the consolidation of the
iron ore interests at the upper end of Lake Superior
and the announcement that the ore from those regions
is to be taken to the docks at Conneaut Harbor and
transported over the Pittsburg Shenango & L ik e Erie.
The road reports for August, 1893, gross of $61,095,
against only $3G,2S2 for the corresponding month last
year. In the month preceding the gain had been
equally striking, gross this year at $56,376 comparing
with only $33,021 for July 1892.
As regards the grain movement, this has been affected
by the financial disturbances the same as other branches
of business. The very low prices for wheat also no doubt
act as a check on shipments out of farmers’ hands. A t all
events, for the five weeks ending September 2 the re
ceipts of wheat at the Western primary markets were
only 15 million bushels, against 35J million bushels in
the corresponding five weeks last year, being a falling
off of 20f million bushels. The loss was heaviest at
Chicago, St. Louis and Toledo, while at Duluth the re
ceipts actually increased. It is noteworthy that in corn
the aggregate receipts at the Western markets were in
excess of a year ago, and that the same Wa3 true of oats.
The following gives full details of the grain move

In the preceding we cover the five weeks ending
September 2. For the even months the receipts at
Chicago are shown in the following. It will be observed
that aggregate grain receipts at that point the present
year were five million bushels less than in the corres
ponding month last year. The table also gives the re
ceipts of provisions and live hogs, in which there was a
pretty general falling off.

Southwestern roads have as a whole suffered heavier
losses in earnings than any others. This follows in part
from the fact that the earnings of these roads, and more
particularly such of them as have lines into Colorado,
had been swelled last year by the holding of the
Masonic Conclave at Denver. Below we have brought
together the figures for six yeai'3 of a few leading roads
in that section. These roads have aggregate earnings of
only $6,222,653 this year against $7,965,667 last year,
there being thus a decrease of $1,743,014, or nearly 22
per cent. Three small roads not included pn this ex
hibit make a very good showing, namely, the Kansas
City Suburban Belt, which reports gross of $22,403
against $6,454, the Kansas City Pittsburg & G ulf,
which reports gross of $26,623 against $17,120, and the
Houston East & We3t Texas, with earnings of $29,637
against $29,151.

Foreign Exchange.—Sterling bills have been dull through
o u t the week and prices of demand bills and cables are lower
on account of the reduction o f 1 per cent in the Bank of
England rate. It is also reported that the purchase of se
curities here for foreign account has had some influence in
•supplying more exchange. ■ To-day actual rates of exchange

The Money Market and Financial Situation.—The country
is ■watching the course o f debate in the U. S. Senate with
great tolerance but with much anxiety. The extraordinary
(revival of confidence and of actual business in all quarters
immediately after the vote in the House is simply being dis
torted and traded on by the silver men as a cause for further
■delay—they try to make out that the crisis is past now and
there is no need for repeal.
It should not be expected that there will be a great boom in
securities in case the silver purchases are stopped. Many
stocks and bonds have already recovered a great part of their
previous decline, and it has been the experience in former
periods of financial trouble that a season of extreme dulness
follows the time of acute distress.
The most speedy and also lasting assistance towards
an improvement in all our good investment securities
ought to come from foreign purchasing. It is a mere
axiom that there is always an abundance of money
in England and on the Continent ready to go into safe
and profitable investment in any quarter of the globe. The
convulsions in South America and Australia and the silver
cloud in this country have recently thrown the European in
vestors out of all these markets, and must have left them with
much money now on hand ready to be placed.in good securi
ties. The change to a gold basis in the United States will be
•■something more than a temporary shifting of standards - i t
■will be a great, permanent and historic change, coming at the
and of fifteen years of dangerous silver inflation, and giving a
promise of stability in long investments in this country which
could never be felt before.
The open market rates for call loans during the week on
stock and bond collaterals have ranged from 8 to 7 per cent,
the average being 4 per cent. To-day rates on call were 8 to
4 per cent. Commercial paper is quoted at 8 to 12 p. c.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed
an increase in bullion of £617,000, and the percentage of
reserve to liabilities was 52-50, against 51-37 last week: the
discount rate was reduced from 5 to 4 per cent, The Bank
of France shows a decrease of 6,975,000 francs in gold and
“3,550,000 francs in silver.
The detailed statement of the condition of the ClearingHouse banks has been discontinued for the present, and will
eiot again be issued so long as there are any loan certificates
■outstanding. The totals, however, are furnished as usual,
-and the figures for last Saturday (Sept. 9) as compared with
whose of the preceding Saturday show an increase in the re
serve held of $4,478,300, there being a surplus over the
required reserve of $2,966,375, against a deficit of $1,567,525
the previous week :

State and Railroad Bonds.—Sales of State bonds at the Board
have included §5,000 Ala. “ A ” bonds at 96; do. ,$15,000 cur.
fdg. 4s at 89; $2,000 Term, settlt. 3s at 70; $5,000 Ark. 7s.,
L. R. P. B. & N. O. 7s,-at 8 .
Railroad bonds have been fairly active, and one bond after
another has been creeping up in price until a large part of the
great decline, in the recent panic has been recovered. The
advance in bonds takes place in spite of the large
decrease at present in railroad earnings, as it is be
lieved this decrease will be only temporary and the roads
will recover themselves when the silver question is
fairly out of the way and business is permitted to im
prove. The Northern Pacific consol. 5s and Chicago &
Northern Pacific 1st 5s have still been among the
most active bonds, with varying fluctuations, the first clos
ing at 34, against 38 last week, and the latter at
48%, against 48. Erie 2d consolidated 6s remain steady
around 75, with the talk of reducing the obligatory interest to
4 per cent, the remaining 2 per cent to be paid if earned.
There has been quite a movement in the Richmond Terminal
bonds, the trust receipts for 5s closing at 24, but without any
positive information of new progress in' the reorganization
plan. Reading bonds have been less active, but with prices
fairly sustained. Atchison 1st 4s are steady around 74, and
most of the other popular Western railroad first mortgage 4s
and os are stronger than last week.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market
was reasonably active and strong in the early part of the
week, but has recently been dull with easier prices. It
is plain that speculation is in a halting position, wait
ing for the action of the Senate, and when that becomes
certain and repeal is assured, it is probable that prices of
securities will gradually become stronger. It is to be remem
bered, however, that the business of the country has been
seriously injured and it will take some time to recover, and
it would not be at all surprising if there should be at first a
decided reaction in some of the leading speculative stocks
when repeal is actually carried, as the effect of such an im
portant event is usually discounted in the market. St. Paul
has been a leading stock, having London dealings to help it,
but made no further advance when the usual dividends were
declared on Thursday—3% on the preferred and 2 on common.
Chicago Gas has been active, closing at 59%, against 62% last
week, and the 1 % per cent scrip dividend will be distributed
Oct. 2. The Richmond Terminal stocks have been stronger and
active with the bonds, apparently on the expectation of some
further progress in the resuscitation of the company. West
ern Union Telegraph has declared its regular 1 % percent,
and shows a handsome estimated surplus for the quarter, but
much less than last year.
Reading has been purchased
moderately, selling above 20 and closing at 18%. hut there is
no definite movement in the company's affafis. .Sugar has
been active, selling up to 93% and closing at 87%, Lead
closes at 29% against 30% last week.

Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe.— President Reinhart tele
graphs from Chicago: “ The improvement goes on. Advices
from the Gulf Colorado & Santa Fe indicate decided improve
ment in the past few days in the movement of traffic, with
busy times ahead. A considerable movement of grain is
coming to our line from the north of Purcell. Crops promise
to be an average. In the Indian Territory they have been exceptionally good. W heat has commenced to move freely.
Cotton also. Demand for cars is getting to be lively.”
fourtbs of the shares of the pieferred stock and more than threefourths of the shares of the common stock of this company to the
issue of new shares of stock, as therein proposed, has been received.
As soon as practicable after the 30th day of December next a circular
will be addressed to each shareholder of record on the hooks of the
company at the close of business on that day whose post office address
is known, advising him or her definitely of the number of shares
which they m ay have the right to purchase under tlie rule that each
of them shall have the option of purchasing one new share of com
mon stock for each eight shares of both preferred and common stook
then owned by them respectively, aud also such further information
as m ay appear necessary, to the end that the proposed issue and sale
of shares m ay be made in accordance with the terms of the circular
of the President of this company above referred to.
D etroit Bay City & Alpena.— At Detroit, Micb., Sept. 11,
application was made to Judge Swan in the United State*
Circuit Court for the appointment of a receiver. The appli
cation was made by attorneys for Rose well G. Rolston, Presi
dent of the Farmers’ Loan. & Trust Company, New York,
trustee under a mortgage of the road dated Jan. 1,1883.
Holders of $1,600,000 of the bonds outstanding secured by the
mortgage claim that default has been made in payment of
interest, and ask that the mortgage be foreclosed and a re
ceiver appointed. Mr. Rolston asked for the appointment of
M. L. Scudder of Chicago.
The railroad company protested
against Mr. Scudder’s appointment, and asked if a receiver
be appointed that he be Gen. Alger, President and General
Manager of the road since its construction.
Judge Swan
took tne application under advisement.
The N. Y . Herald has the following: “ The trouble simply
is, ” said t eneral Alger, “ that the road has not been able to pay
the interest on its bonds. Business was very bad during 1891
and 1892, but it began to pick up last spting, and had it not
been for the general financial depression the road might have
pulled through without going into the hands of a receiver. ”
“ How about the charges of mismanagement made by Mr.
Dickinson’s client?”
“ That refers,” said he, “ to a misunderstanding which can
be easily explained. The firm of Alger, Smith & Co. are
building a road from Alpena noith, through Alpena and
Presque Isle counties. About thirty-five miles has already
been graded and some track laid. On the line of the Detroit
Bay City & Alpena there were fifteen miles of steel which
belonged to our firm and had been merely loaned the road. W e
needed the steel for the new road we are building and took up
its equivalent in rails from the Detroit Bay City & Alpena.
There has also been some disagreement about a stipulation we
made in selling our Alcona County road to the Detroit Bay
City & Alpena Company providing that our timber from that
region should be hauled at a certain reduced price.”
Evansville & Terre Haute.— A t Sullivan. lud., September
8th, in the Green County Court, before Judge Briggs, Re
ceiver Grammer filed a statement asking that he be discharged
as receiver since the parties to the suit had agreed to dismiss
it. The Court then, being advised that plaintiffs and de
fendants were represented by counsel in Court and he being in
formed that an agreement had been reached, thereupon de
clared the road solvent, dismissed the receiver, and ordered
all property returned to the company.
The directors of the Evansville & Terre Haute Railroad met
in New York on Wednesday and elected David J. Mackey
President of the company in place of G. J. Grammer, re
signed. Mr. Mackey resigned his place as chairman of the
board, and was succeeded in that post by W . H . Tilford.
A t a meeting of the directors on Thursday a resolution was
passed changing the date of the annual meeting of stock
holders from the third to the first Thursday in October. It
J was also resolved that next year the board of directors should
I
consist of nine instead of thirteen members.
^
Called Bonds.— The following bonds have been called for J Lehigh V alley.— The board of directors decided "to " pass
payment. The numbers of the bonds may be learned at the I the quarterly dividend due 03t. 1 [and passed the following

•olidated mortgage gold bonds and mature in 1937. They are
authorized to be issued at a rate not exceeding $30,000 a mile; of
this amount $7,500 per mile are expressly reserved by the terms
of the mortgage for additions and betterments. The only
immediate change in the company's funded debt will be the
issue under this mortgage of about $3,000,000 bonds, carrying
five per cent interest, which will be a first lien on about 130
miles of road which has been constructed during the past two
years and on which no mortgage has as yet been placed.
The new mortgage is limited to an issue of $89,293,500 and
the prior liens it provides for aggregate about $50,000,000.
President Huntington is quoted as saying :
“ The new mortgage will be a first lien on all of the com
pany’s property, including the lands.
The company has
built during the past two years about 130 miles on which
there is no lien, and the new mortgage will be a first lien on
this mileage. As the present outstanding bonds mature they
will be taken up by this mortgage and will be exchanged
probably before their maturity for the new bonds.
“ The balance of the new bonds will be issued gradually
and only as the construction of new mileage, made necessary
by the increasing local traffic, justifies such issue. In other
words, we shall build no faster than is actually necessary to
accommodate the sections of country through which such
lines are to run. There are certain limitations in the mort
gage as to the amount to be issued within certain periods, and
it would be probably well in the next century before all the
bonds authorized under the terms of the new mortgage will
be outstanding, although of course no one can foretell how
rapid the development of California may be.
“ This mortgage provides that no bonds are to be issued to
pay a higher rate of interest than 5 per cent. W hen we built
the Central Pacific the company had to issue 6 and 7 per cent
first mortgages on the main line and branches, and some of
those have been extended since then at 5 per cent and even
per cen t; so it is reasonable to suppose that under the new
mortgage we may be able before long to issue bonds at a
lower rate than 5 per cent.
C .‘ ‘ The creation of this new mortgage is in line with the gen
eral policy adopted by almost all the large companies at the
present day— to merge all their mortgage liens into a unified
or consolidated mortgage, which shall cover their whole
system.”

The mileage of track from which these earnings were de
rived is practically the same as last year, except that the
Cincinnati W abash & Michigan Railway and the branch line
from Rushville to North Vernon (249’10 miles), are included
this year but were reported separately last year. There have
been added during the year 4'33 miles of double track on the
Chicago division ; also at various points on the C. C. C. & St.
L . R y ,, proper, 28’61 miles of siding, and on the Peoria &
Eastern Ry., 8'03 miles of siding.
The Mt. Gilead Short Line (2 miles), which was operated by
this company, earned 84,971 78 ; operating expenses, 85,718 41,
showing a deficit for the year’s operation of §746 63, which
was advanced by this company.
The Kankakee & Seneca Railroad (42'08 miles in length),
operated jointly for account of our company and the Chicago
Rock Island & Pacific, earned, gross, §83,044 85 ; operating
expenses, §88,466 23 ; deficit, §5,421 38, which has been ad
vanced by this company.
The Peoria & Eastern, from Springfield, O., to Peoria, HI.,
(352 miles in length), earned gross, §1,740,501 6 1 ; net, 8272,352 2 1 ; fixed charges, §441,620 ; deficit, §169,267 79, which has
been advanced by this Company.
Making altogether during the year a total mileage of track
on all the systems operated and controlled by this company
of 3,008 42 miles.* Total gross earnings, §16,497,573 88 ; net
earnings, 53,970,453 22, being a loss in gross earnings com
pared with last year of §62,637 02, and in net of $732,315 72.
It will be seen from these figures that while the gross earn
ings have been practically maintained, the expenses have
been very largely increased, not only on the main line but on
the leased and operated roads. Your Directors, when consideriDgthe half-yearly dividerd on the common stock, after
very careful deliberation deemed it wise to use a portion of
the accumulated profits of previous years and pay the usual
m one and one-half per cent half-yearly dividend.
They were
further justified in this by the belief that the operating ex
penses tor the preceding six months were very largely in
excess of what they would have been under ordinary circum
stance s. As has been stated in previous reports, the Com
pany’s System was formed by a consolidation of many lines,
and at the vaiious junction points where a large interchange
business came from such consolidation, there were inadequate
facilities in the way of yards, shops and round-houses to take
care of it. The Company also inherited from the different
Of mpanies a large number of old and worn-out engines, but
hoped by the gradual rebuilding of the same and the pursuasing of new ones, to provide for the business as it came.
However, the large traffic coming to the line in the last fall
and winter demonstrated that this could not be done, the
consequence being that the motive power gave way under
the excessive straiD, the season being unusually severe, and
the financil result was that the earnings largely decreased and
the expenses increased, as is shown by the figures previously
given.
A n additional reason for the large ratio of expenses is due
to the fact— which has been alluded to in previous reports— of
‘ This mileage does not correspond with that given iu the last A n
im al Report on account of correction of errors that occurred in last
ear’s statement of track on some of the divisions.
[You LVli.
the'increase of wages which was made in 1890. The opera
tions of the Company have since demonstrated that the em
ployees in that settlement received more than their share, and
an adjustment ought to be made upon au equitable basis.
Steps have already been taken leading to this, and the officers
have been met so far in a fair and proper spirit.
Your Directors have been for some time consideiing a plan
to provide the Company with proper terminals and motive
power, and with your approval decided to make a con
solidated bond, of which $5,000,000 should be sold for the
present needs of the Company and the balance used in re
funding the old debt and for new improvements not exceed
ing a certain amount each year. This policy was determined
upon in May and immediately arrangements were made for
adding to the terminals at Lindale (near Cleveland), at
Springfield, Bellefontaine, Cincinnati and Indianapolis, and a
large number of new locomotives were placed under contract,
to be delivered during the summer and fall; §2,000,000 of the
bonds authorized were sold,to be delivered and paid for in July,
the proceeds of which have been received since the closing of
the year’s accounts and the receipts applied to the reduction
of the Bills Payable of the Company. The remaining $3,000,000 will be sold whenever the market will justify, and the
proceeds will be used for the improvements which have been
ordered and which will be completed during the coming fall.
Including the engines which are now contracted and to be
delivered, it will have purchased since the consolidation 180
new engines, 72 passenger cars, 5,969 freight cars. The sale
of the remaining §3,000,000 of bonds will complete the pay
ment for these and leave the Company without any floating
debt except deferred payments on equipment as shown in the
Auditor’s statement.
Its fixed charges for the coming year, including the interest
upon these bonds, will be 82,831,440— not large for a Company
that has earned in the past year nearly S 15,009,000 gross.
Measures have been taken to reduce the expenses on the
subsidiary lines, so that it is expected for the coming year
they will be self-supporting. This is particularly true of the
Peoria & Eastern Road, where it was necessary to expend
large sums during the past year in the renewals of bridges
and ballasting certain portions of the line, which were in the
nature of permanent work but had to be charged, under the
contract, to operating expenses.
The physical condition of the property has been more than
kept up. The expenditures upon the track, for heavier rail,
replacement of ties, new bridges and interlocking at railway
crossings, have probably been somewhat larger than was ab
solutely necessary for the year, but the condition of the
track has been very much improved, and the results of this
year’s expenditure ought to enable it to he maintained for a
less amount for the coming year. The details of all expen
ditures will be found in the Auditor’s statements attached.
By examining the statistics attached, it will be seen that
the tons of freight carried and also the tons carried one mile,
and the earnings from the same, show a decrease. The
average receipts per ton mile, every thing considered,
have held up remarkably well. The freight train mileage,
however, shows an increase, with less tonnage handled;
and herein lies a large part of our increased expenses. This
is due to insufficient terminals, defective motive power and
the severe winter weather.
The passenger business shows a very gratifying increase in
passengers carried and in revenue ; although the average re
ceipts per passenger mile show a slight decrease.
The freight train earnings per mile run decreased from §1 48
to §1 41. The passenger train earnings per mile, however, in
creased from §1 04 to §1 07.
The interchange of business with the Lake Shore & Michi
gan Southern Railway and the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway
(the two principal eastern connections of the Company) for the
year compared with the previous is as follows :

The Company during the past year has spent a large sum of
money upon its Chicago Division, preparing for the passen
ger traffic for the W orld’s Fair, which, although not up to the
expectation of the Managers, is still very large, and wre are re
ceiving the benefit of this expenditure. After the terminals
which are new nearly completed at the various places alluded
to in the previous part of this report are finished, there will
be no construction account of auy importance upon the line.
Your careful attention is called to the attached statements
of the Auditor, showing the various accounts of the Com
pany ; also to the statements of mileage of tracks and of
equipment owned as of June 30, 1893.
The employes have served the Company with faithfulness
and care during the year.
A ll of which is respectfully submitted.

ment on roadway and bridges through the year, and, with the
exception of some sixty or seventy miles of track upon the
Western Division which require additional ballast and some
rectification of grades, the main lines from Toledo to St. Louis
and Kansas City, and between St. Louis, Chicago and Detroit,
will compare favorably with any lines west of the Great
Lakes, and although further work will be necessary to reach
the highest standard attainable, the road will not suffer in a
comparison with any of its competitors. The Wabash track
and machinery are in better physical condition at the present
time than at any period in its previous history. One or two
years of similar work will enable the Company to operate its
lines at the lowest percentage of expenses commensurate
with the proper maintenance of its roadway and structures.
During the receivership a large portion of the freight equip
ment became useless, partly on account of insufficient repairs
and renewals and partly from age. These cars have been
largely replaced by new ones of modern size and improved
appliances, and although, numerically, there is but little if
any gain, the changes and replacements have very largely in
creased the efficiency and utility of the equipment.
The new line extending from Montpelier to Chicago,
forming a part of the short line between Detroit and
Chicago, was opened for traffic during the month of May
last, and although it has had the test of only about three
months, under the disadvantages which are unavoidable in
the operation of a new road, it has developed an earning
capacity thus far much beyond the expectations of the
Managers. The utility of this extension has been satisfac
torily demonstrated, and it is not over sanguine to anticipate
its rapid growth in popularity as the shortest and one of the
best lines between these two large and important cities.
The recent disturbance in the financial and business affairs
of the country has led railway managers to expect a material
decrease in traffic. A n interruption of the industrial pur
suits of the people so widespread and severe, however brief
its duration, must necessarily affect the traffic of railways in
the ratio of diminished production and distribution, while in
the possible delay in crop movements and the reduced de
mand for merchandise, there are indications of a smaller em
ployment of the agencies of transportation. This unwelcome
phase in railway affairs has compelled the introduction of
economical measures which will partially neutralize the loss
in gross earnings. Thus far the Wabash has but lightly
suffered, the gain in passenger traffic stimulated by the
W orld’s Fair in Chicago having to some extent offset the de
crease in fre ig h t; but it would be imprudent to count upon
any exemption from troubles which are so general and far
reaching. Fortunately the country has been favored with
abnndant crops and these must necessarily be moved as soon
as the markets call for the usual supplies, and it is a consol
atory reflection that the business of the country is now, and
has been for some years, generally upon a sound and sub
stantial basis. W hen, therefore, confidence returns suffi
ciently to remove the unnatural cogestion of trade, we may
reasonably expect a speedy restoration of the normal con
ditions which govern transportation.
It is not out of place to add that although rates of railway
traffic remain substantially unchanged, there has been a more
general disposition among competing companies to maintain
established tariffs, and to unite upon measures to prevent the
inroads of aggressive and unscrupulous rate scalpers of the
modern school. This common sense arrangement, which con
templates the conservation of the very moderate profits of
railway traffic, attainable under existing conditions, instead
of permitting the wastage of suicidal contests, is a cheerful
feature of the year.
Mr. Jay Gould, one of the directors of this company, died
December 2, 1892.
Upon the announcement of this death, the following reso
lutions were adopted at a meeting of the Board of Directors,
by unanimous vote, and an engrossed copy thereof was for
warded to the fam ily of the deceased.

were freely and constantly devoted for years to the protection
of its interests ; therefore,
“ Resolved, That the membersof this Board have heard with
profound regret the announcement of the death of their late
associate and friend, Mr. Jay Gould ;

zealous co-operation in the reorganization and direction of
the affairs of the Wabash Railroad Company, we recognize
the gravity of an event which has deprived us of the benefit
of his valuable counsel and support;
“ Resolved, That we tender to the bereaved family of the
deceased the respectful sympathy of each member of this
Board ;
“ Resolved, That an engrossed copy of these resolutions,
signed by the.directors of this company, be forwarded to the

EPITOME.
F r i d a y N ig h t , Sept. 1 5 ,1 8 9 3 .
There is a steady increase of the cheerful feeling in com
mercial circles. Collections are of a more satisfactory char
acter, and at most of the important localities in the interior
orders for supplies are coming in with greater freedom, al
though still selections are closely confined to thoroughly staple
goods. Greater ease in financial affairs serves to revive spec
ulative operations in some of the principal commodities.
Grain and flour were advanced early in the week upon the
influence of unpromising Government crop report, but the
increase in cost had a dual effect, shown in curtailment of
foreign orders and free offering of supplies at primal markets,
under which prices have since receded again. In consequence
of previous liberal shipments the export demand for feed stuffs
is falling away. Cured meats continue too costly for foreign
trade but are attracting increased home demand. Late ad
vices from various Western localities report improved con
ditions for wheat seeding, and corn has so nearly ripened as
to be practically secure against damage from frost. Informa
tion regarding the rice crop is of an unfavorable character.
Lard on the spot has sold with a trifle more freedom at
advancing prices, mainly for export, closing steady at 8J^@
8%c. for prime City, 9'12}£c. for prime Western and 9 70c.
for refined for the Continent. The speculation in lard for fu
ture delivery at this market has continued dull, but prices
have advanced, owing to unfavorable prospects for the com
ing corn crop and in response to stronger advices from the
W est, where packers were buying, closing firm.

become cautious and negotiations are slower. Rio quoted at
18 ^ c. for No. 7; good Cucuta, 20% @ 21c.,and interior Padang,
23)£@24c. Speculation in contracts on new deals has been
moderate, but free covering took place on previous short sales
in consequence of check to shipments by bombardment of
Rio de Janeiro. A sharp advance in price followed and has
served to attract supplies from Europe. The close is firm
with prices still advancing.

There has been very little attention given to the market for
Straits tin, but prices have steadily advanced in response to
stronger foreign advices, and the close was firm at 20'35c.
Sales for the week were less than 50 tons. Ingot copper is

vanced, closing steady at 9'80c. for Lake. Lead is without

* Deduotlou from mouth’s total on account of holidays.
Our cable states that Mr. Ellison has revised his figures of
consumption for Great Britain during the period of the strike,
by deducting 30,000 bales per week for 31 weeks, instead of
35.000 bales per week.
The foregoing shows that the weekly consumption in
Europe is now 170,000 bales of 400 pounds each, against
155.000 bales of like weights at the corresponding time last year.
The total spinners’ stocks in Great Britain and on the C ontinent
have decreased 101,000 bales during the month, and are now
104.000 bales less than at the sam i date last year.

to g iven b e lo w :
The September cotton report o f the Departm ent o f Agriculture shows
a decline from the August condition o f the c ro p o f fully seven points,
being 73 1 this month, as again ,t s<j*4 last m onth. This Is th e lowest
September condition si nee 1**1, which stood at 10, The condition Sep

Louisiana, 81; Texas, 63; A rtew tw . 80, and Tennessee, 08.
In addition to unfavorable weather conditions, am ong which the
drought has been prominent, correspondent* o f the Department ascribe
th e falling off In the coudltlou o f the crop to the ravares o f Insect ene
m ies o f the plant—«urh as the caterpillar and the bol|, arm y and leaf
worm*. Rust, as a cause o f dam age Is also noted The hurricane o f
August 28 caused m uch dam age to the crop In North Carolina, South
Carolina and Georgia and. In lea? degree, In Florida.
Reports from Alabama show aa excess o f moisture to #om> parts o f
the State, In som e places the plant i< taking on a second growth,
whleh is not considered beneficlo!. and In other* there Is •ptouttett
and rotting to the bolts .Seven counties o f the State report too rapid

Correspondent*’ reptrts from Mississippi are to tbe effect Hut the
crop U doing finely and the weather 1» favorable f o r the present con

to shed badly, while young cotton was not hem-fitted, as th* growth

There was considerable activity to the trading in the market
for wheat flour early in the week. Both the h >me trade and
exporters operated with quite a degree of freedom, and prices
were advanced about 10c. per barrel in sympathy with the rise
in wheat. Later, however, in consequence of a reaction in
the grain, buyers reduced their bids, but the mills refused to
make concessions and as a result trade became quiet. City

During the fore part of the week the market for Indian corn
futures was buoyant.
The Government report made a de
cidedly unfavorable statement, and advices from the W est
reported the crop suffering seriously, owing to the drought;
but later there were reports of rain and this prompted longs
to sell to realize profits, causing considerable of the improve
ment to be lost.
In the spot market exporters have been
moderate buyers at advancing prices.
Yesterday the sales
included No. 2 mixed at 51J^c. in elevator and 52Jgc. de
livered.
To-day the market made a slight further decline
under continued realizing sales by longs.
The spot market
was quiet and a trifle weaker.
The sales included No. 2
mixed at 52%e, delivered.

Oats for future delivery advanced early in the week on the
unfavorable report for the coming crop issued by the Gov
ernment, but subsequently under the realizing sales by longs
and in sympathy with the reaction in wheat and corn, the
improvement was partially 1 >st'. Business in the spot market

THE
DRY
GOODS
TRADE.
Nuw Y o r k . Friday, P. M.. Septem ber 15, 1893.
The market for staple cotton goods and fancies has been
affected by the Jewish New Year holidays drawing an im
portant division out of the market early in the week and by
the announcement of an unusually large auction sale which was
held yesterday. Apart from this the demand was quite equal
to late experiences. Buyers are occasionally opening out a
little, but as a rule they adhere lo small to medium-sized pur
chases, the number of w Inch is gradually increasing. The de
mand is generally reported better from local and Southern
buyers this w* ek than from other sections of the country.
The tone of the market is generally cheerful; evidences of im
provement, if not emphatic, are well enough sustained to
suggest a permanent change for the better for the rest of the
season. Collections have improved in most directions, dis
counting of payments not yet due being more of a feature
than for a long time past. The auction sale referrtd to above
was the largest held in a number of vears, over 18,000 pack
ages of Antosfeeag products being sola. The result was waited
for anxiously by the whole tra !e, as the sale was regarded
as a test of actual conditions. It could hardly be regarded as
satisfactory, very low prices prevailing for the bulk of the
offering.
D o m e s t ic C o t t o n G o o d s . —The exports of cotton good*
from this port for the week ending September 12 were 1,038
packages, valued at 18 7 ,758 . their destination being to the
points specified in the table below:
respective divisions. Colored cottons have ruled quiet
throughout, particularly in denims, ticks, checks and stripes,
which were more peculiarly under the influence of the auction
sale than
other varieties.
Kid-finished cambrics and
silesias are in fair demand and steady. Cotton flannels in
moderate re-order request. W hite goods inactive throughout.
Prices o f staple cottons are irregular. Printed fabrics have
sold fairly well at low prices but ginghams have ruled dull.
Print cloths are inactive but steady at 2 J4 C. for 04x64s.
