The full details of clearings 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 houses 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.
Below
are our usual detailed figures for the previous week, tliat is
covering the returns for the period ending with Saturday
noon September 13, with the comparative totals in 1890.
The current exhibit is a fairly favorable one, the decrease
from the preceding week in the total being fully accounted
for by the quite general observance of Monday, September
7
(Labor Day), as a holiday. Speculation in share properties
has been active on both the New York and Boston exchanges
although the volume of transactions is not so heavy as in the
preceding week.

worth noting that there was a considerable inmonth, for while the improvement in the gross reaches $3,646,830 the improvement in the net amounts to only $1,668,019, the
rest being accounted for by the increase of $1,978,811 in
expenses. This is rather important because it had been
supposed that railroad managers everywhei'e were
practicing very close economy, and also because a year
ago in the same month the same feature was observable,
only in more striking degree. As far as concerns tha
net, indeed, last year's July statement was the poorest
of any of the seven months, there having actually been
a loss of $238,349, occasioned entirely by an augmentation of $3,128,631 in expenses, as the gross had expanded $2,890,283. This circumstance, too, of a poor
statement of net in 1890 should be taken into consideration in connection with the improvement in net the

under pressure of the sale of Union Paciflc shares, and on
Thursday there was a distinct decline in prices throughout the

At the same time the feeling is general that the recovery in

open market has steadily advanced during the week, and is now about 2"^32% per cent,
or k to J-i per cent below the Bank of Eogland rate. The
rise is mainly due to the fear that gold will have to be shipped
to New York in very large amounts. For a long time bankers
here refused to believe that the shipments would be on a scale
to cause any apprehension.
They argued that, owing to the
silver legislation, not much gold would be sent to the United
States by Europeans, and therefore they contended that as the
American people would be exceedingly prosperous they would
spend largely, and that thus the debt due from Europe to the
United States would be offset by the debt due from the latter
visit of the French fleet to Cronstadt, and partly it is due to
the intrigues on the part of Russia and France to wring from
the Sultan permission for Russian ships to pasi freely throujh

hand, leaders of the Paris market profess to be as confident as ever of their ability to prevent a serious crisis.
Indeed, it is reported that a syndicate of Paris bankers is
negotiating with the Russian Minister of Finance to bring out
a loan of 35 millions gterling. As the holdings of Russian
Becurities in France are already very large, it is doubted
whether such a loan can be floated, but the fact that there is
a report of such efleot showi how very confident the Paris
market still is.
The weather here is still very unfavorable. During the
week we have had high gales and heavy rains and much damage to the crops is rsported from many parts of the United
Kingdom. On the Continent, too, the weather is very unpropitious, and unless there is a great change soon it is to be
feared that the harvest will be even worse than hitherto has
been anticipated. According to the estimates published by the
Hungarian Ministry the total wheat production of the world
ia about 80 millions of bushels short of the wheat requirements, and as the rye production is still more deficient, it
seems clear that under the most favorable conditions the
prices of grain must be high during the next twelve months.
The potato crop is also reported to be bad over the most pirt
of Europe. Here at home disease has made its appearance,
many of the fields already looking quite withered, and unless
there is a very great and early improvement of the weather,
harvesting will be conducted under such conditions that much
of the grain must be quite unfit for milling purposes. On the
other hand, if the weather improves, many good judges affirm
that the damage done in the United Kingdom would prove to
be lets than is generally believed, and that the yield, therefore,
will not be very much under the avera^je. In any case it is
certain that the requirements of Europe will be larger
than in any year since 1879, and the probability therefore is
that very much gold will have to b3 shippad to pay for the

—The Short Electric Railway Company
of Cleveland, Ohio,
has recently brought out an important improvement in motors
for the equipment of electric street railways. The improvement consists in the entire absence of gearing, by which means
a large percentage of operating expenses is saved to the railway company, b<)th in power, consumption and in depreciation of machinery. Moreover, the motors are noiseless, a9
there is no rattle of gearing. It is claimed that this motor
will be the final form for electric street railways using the
overhead wire system.

rapid to last, but for the moment the enthusiasm seems unbounded. The leading substantial Western stocks, which were
the first to start upward a month ago and give tone to the
whole market, are strong and well held, and although recently
outstripped in the upward race by many of the low-priced
specialties in stocks and income bonds, they again took the
lead this afternoon. Where a person buys on his confident
belief in the temper of the marke't and a general opinion that
everything will go higher, there is no argument to be made,
as one view is as good as another but on a conservative
estimate of the value of stocks or bonds to hold, it looks very
much as if many of the light-weights had already advanced
as far as they ought to for the present.
The assurance that the large corn crop is now virtually
safe, the continued exports of grain, the weakness in foreign
exchange and turning of foreign gold in this direction, and
the fine exhibit of earnings made by some of the grain-carrying railroads, are the chief elements which have caused the
buoyancy of the present week. On the other hand the low
prices for cotton are depressing the South and the demand
for manufactured goods in that quarter is likely to be curtailed.
It is interesting to observe the effect of the present buoyancy
on memberships in the Exchanges. The price now asked for
a N. Y. Stock Exchange seat is understood to be §24,000, and
the last sale was at §23,000; other membership sales, or figures
asked or offered, may be seen in the following list:

Foreign Exchange.— The tone has been weak throughout
and the market generally dull. Rates for sterling bills have
yielded %c. to Ic. during the week, 60-day bills declining
the
most. A larger supply of cotton bills, continued heavy
Irain
exports, and buying of stocks for London account,
have been
the chief mfluences. Gold engaged for this
country is estimated at §1,750,000. Actual rates for exchange are Bankera sixty

Railroad bonds have been" very active, particularly the favincome bond issues dealt in on speculative account.
Atchison incomes have held their place well in the front touching 66^ to-day and closing at 63^^. Reading pref incomes o f all
three issues have risen in company with the stock, and on large
transactions have scored a material advance. Other strong and
active bonds have been the Mil. L. S & West ext. 5s., Mo. Kan.
& Texas 2d incomes, Texas & Pacific 2d incomes, St. Louis
& Southwestern 2d incomes, S. Car. incomes, West. N. Y. &
Penn. seconds, Peoria & Eastern incomes and Wabash debenThe mortgage bonds have been stronger in sympathy,
tures.
but usually on moderate dealings, and the temper of the
market is evidently in favor of the incomes at the present
moment. Indeed, so far has this feeling carried up prices
that the leading issues, such as Atchisons and Reading first
pref. are now getting near to the prices of some of the cheaper
4 per cent mortgage bonds. The investment bonds of all good
issues may be expected to become gradually firmer in their
prices as the lighter things advance to a point where they are
orite
.
less attractive.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stoclis.— Tlie stock market,
after a week of fair strength and activity, has culminate 1 today in a boom of animation. The sales of income bonds and
stocks are very large, and it is evident that there must be a
pretty wide interest in the market, as no traders' movement
could keep up such strong and persistent buying. London,
as usual when stocks are going up, is a heavy purchaser, as
the Englishmen like best to take hold of our securities when
we are showing great confidence in them ourselves.
The present warm weather is putting a finishing touch
daily to millions of bushels of corn, and this removal of imcertainty about late corn has again stimulated the transactions on a large scale. When there has been so mucli doing
in many stocks, it is hardly necessary to mention one and
another that has scored an advance, but during the last
few days the buying of low-priced stocks aud income
bonds has been a notable feature and prices have sharply
turned upward. Reading has been dealt in heavily since the
stock-pool was dissolved, and London buying has been conspicuous. Lake Erie & Western preferred and common
were active to-day on the excellent showing for seven months.
The grangers, Northern Pacifies, Missouri Pacific, Texas Pacific, Wabash, Ontario & Western, Mexican Central, Union
Pacific, and a number of others, have been lively to-day, and
generally at advancing prices.
Among the unlisted, Sugar has been active to-day, closing
Lead fairly traded in, closing at 16^^.
at 901^, and
Silver bullion certificates tend downward and close at 973^.

ANNUAL REPORTS.
Fitchburg' Railroad.
("For the year ending
June 30, IB91J
The annunl report says that "there has Ixjen added to the
equipment 7 locoinotivss, 5 of which have been charged to
construction account and 2 to repairs, to replace that number
worn out. There have been constructed in our car shops 2
baggage cars, 4 combination cars and 28 freight cars, which
were charged to construction account also 57 flat, 2.5 box,
16 stock and 1 gondola to replace a like number worn out or
destroyed during the year, which have been charged to ex;
*
penses."
*
"During the year the adjustment of Troy & Boston Railroad
Company's accounts has been completed. At the time of the
consolidation with that company it was assumed that the issue of seven per cent T. & B. bonds maturing July 1, 1934,
could be paid off at the option of the company at their face
value, and it was also guaranteed that the floating debt of
the T. & B. Company did not exceed $175,000, and as a security
against any excess of liabihty in consequence of error in
these particulars the consolidation agreement gave this
company a lien on dividends to be declared on its stock
issued to Troy & Boston stockholders for the re-payment of
any excess. The New York Court of Appeals decided that
Interest at 7 per cent on the bonds referred to must be paid
The floating debt also exceeded considerably
until maturity.
An arrangement was then made
the stipulated amount.
which we considered equitable and beneficial to all classes of
our stockholders, by which our preferred stock was given
to holders of Troy & Boston issue, in exchange for their
were iubject to the lien, the exchange
shares, which
being made in the ratio of three shares of preferred for
each ten shares of Troy & Boston issue surrended. The arrangement has been completed, and the aggregate amount
paid and to be paid for tne Troy & Boston property is definitely settled and detnrmined at the amount fixed in the
original agreement of the two companies.
"The Southern Vermont, Railroad has become the absolute
property of the company. At the time of the consolidation
with the Troy & Greenfield Railroad and Hoosac Tunnel, this property was operated by the Troy & Boston
Railroad Company as a part of its main line through
the
Vermont
of
State
a
tiader
'perpetual
lease,"
and upon the adjustment of matters with the Troy & Boston company negotiations were opened with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for a purchase of the property and
settlement of back rental claim, which resulted in its purchase for the sum of $175,000 in four per cent bonds of the
Fitchburg company.
" The increase in expenditures
is principally in conducting
coat of fuel for locomotives increased
due in part to the^advance in price of that
received by water during the winter and in part to the increased amount consumed. The large increase in payments
for freight car mileage, about $81,000, weis caused by the
condition of traflSc. Cars were not in demand on foreign
roads during the latter part of the year, and our own cars
were idle while we were paying for the use of others that
came to us loaded with freight from the West. The cost of
removing snow and ice was $31,000 greater than the previous
year.
" The plan for the consolidation with the Cheshire Railroad
was put into effect Oct. 1, 1890, and since that time the road
has been operated as a part of this 6} st ^m. It has required
considerable expenditure to bring its equipment up to our
standard, and to replace some of the bridges with more substantial structures."

Mr. Samuel D. Babcock,
President,
states that " at the May session of the General Assembly of
Rhode Island, The
York Providence
Boston and the
'
New
&
Old Colony Railroad Terminal Co.' was incorporated, with the
general object of enabling this corporation and the Old Colony to proceed with the construction of the new station and
terminal facilities at Providence.
The
capital stock of the
Terminal Company was fixed at $500,000, and authority given
it to issue bonds to an amount not exceeding $3,000,000.
This
corporation and the Old Colony were each empowered to
hold or guarantee such stock or bonds, and the stockholders
will be asked to accept the act and ratify such power, the
Terminal Company having been duly organized with careful
provision for the ec^ual joint control of it by this corporation
and the Old Colony Railroad Company.
" The General Assembly, at its May session, also authorized
the issuing of $4,000,000 of four per cent mortgage bonds by
this corporation.
The proceeds of these bonds are intended
for the payment of the present floating debt, for paying for
the new stock of the Providence & Stonington Steamship
Company, about to be issued, which this company is entitled
to, and the balance, after provision has been made for extinguishing the present bonded debt, will be applied to con-
and betterments, as the future may demand."

Nashville Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway.
fFor the year ending June 30, 1891.^
The admirable monthly reports of earnings, expenses, fixed
charges and expenditures for improvements, &c., issued by
this company have frequently been commended in the Chronicle. It is not to be supposed that the accounts of this railroad are kept in a manner essentially different from those of
other companies, and yet on the 18th of July less than three
weeks after the close of the fiscal year the exact results for
that year were published in the Chronicle, showing the total
charges against income, including " improvements," and the
absolute net income for the year applicable to dividends just
as it now appears in the annual report, viz., $563,165.
It is possible that with the larger railway systems, having
wider ramifications and more numerous accounts to adjust
with other roads, it might take a week or two longer to make
up these monthly statements in this lucid and practical form,
but that it can be done there is no doubt, and the holders of
stock would then know what has hitherto been the great
unknown item, namely, the expenditures from month to
month for all improvements and extra outlays over and above
fixed charges, and they could estimate very closely what prospects their income bonds or stock had for dividends.
The annual report of the President of the N. C. & St. L. Ry.
Mr. J. W. Thomas, states that the increase in floating debt,

Ureat Northern.— The Great Northern has opened its new
line from Monarch to Barker, Mon., opening up one of the
richest mining camps of the Belt Mountain district. The
company have also completed a line in Washington from
Suattle, north to Westminister.
This line will be extended
south to Tacoma and eventually will reach Portland over a
line projected in connection with the Union Pacific.
International & Great Northern.— The plan brought forward last May to effect a settlement with the bondholders
without foreclosure it is said may now be carried through.
The five unpaid coupons up to May, 1891, on the first mortgage bonds aggregating $1,198,100 it is proposed t» pay with
interest at 4^ per cent, giving the holders half in" cash and
balance in notes of the company secured by the coupons, and
running one to seven years. The cash to meet above payment
is to be advanced by the Missouri Kansas & Texas and Iron
Mountain. This advance, together with Mr. Gould's judgment amounting with interest to $535,845, and the five unpaid
coupons aggregating $1,058,100 to March, 1891, on the second
mortgage bonds, will be settled for by the issue of 30-year income bonds carrying 4% per cent interest for seven years and
5 per cent thereafter, non-cumulative.
The interest on the
second mortgage bonds it ia proposed to reduce to five per
cent.
If this plan is carried out, it is thought the company
will be able to meet its subsequent fixed charges.

Big Sandy RaUroad. The negotiation is said to include the
Chattaroi Railroad, now known as the Ohio & Big Sandy, and
also the Kentucky & South Atlantic, a small road twentythree miles in length. The Ohio River RR. will thus have a
direct line of its own from Wheeling, W. Va., to Lexington,
Ky. and direct connections thence to Louisville.
Philadelphia & Reading.- The somewhat famous syndicate or pool in the stock of this company has been dissolved
by mutual consent. The pool as originally organized Jabout
two years ago with a view of opposing Mr. Corbin's management owned 400,000 shares of the stock. The withdrawal of
several ^^ew York parties decreased the holding to less than
300,000 shares. The Philadelphia Press says that the original
syndicate consisted of Henry C. Gibson, with 40,000 shares;
Isaac L. Rice, representing 40,000 shares; Andrew Moore and
&
,
jointly, 60,000 shares; John Wanamaker,
and Thomas Dolan, 40,000 shares. In addition, W. W.
Gibbs and William T. Carter held jointly 75,000 shares. Mr.
Gibbs' holdings were sold to H. B. Hollins & Co., and probably Mr. Carter's. At the dissolution of the syndicate only
225,000 shares were represented. Some of the stock had to be

Richmond Terminal. —The Executive Committee have been
in session this week endeavoring to perfect a plan for taking
care of the floating debts of the respective companies. Mr.
John H. Inman, the President, stated that the floating debt
of the Richmond Terminal Company was $530,000 that of
the Richmond & Danville, $3,200,000 of the Georgia Central
of
the
East
$3,800,000, and
Tennessee,
$1,400,000.
Several plans were considered, but the one which is
most likely to be adopted is the issue of $10,000,000 collateral trust notes, to be secured by the deposit of collateral now
held by the various companies. It is not intended to make
one block of notes, but to divide them into classes, keeping
each company's securities and debts distinct from those of the
others. These notes will be guaranteed by the Rifchmond
Terminal Company. The debts of the other roads will be
arranged in a similar way.

Tuesday a more favorable crop report from Texas, in which
British

at Liverpool
Monday
on
was said that local showers had improved prospects, was
the leading influence toward lower figures, although the large
receipts at the ports contributed to the same end.
Respecting
these receipts it was said (and circumstances were mentioned
to sustain the statement) that they embraced considerable
quantities of old cotton. On Wednesday an early advance
was followed by a sharp decline, was attributed to the unsatisfactory state of the spot market here and at the South, and the
increasing offers of cotton for early arrival in the face of a
moderate demand. On Thursday another sharp decline took
place, in response to the downward course of the Liverpool
market, but a partial recovery was caused by a report that the
conditions of the crop in Texas were 24 per cent below last
year. But in the face of this Liverpool again declined to-day,
and futures with us sharply gave way, and January contracts
sold at 8'63c. against 943c. on Saturday, Sept. 5th a decline
There was a slight partial recovery at the close.

Cotton on the spot declined i^c. on Monday, l-16c. each on
Tuesday and Wednesday. To-day there was a further decline
of Jt^c, middling uplands closing at 8J3C.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 696,500
bales.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
3,795 bales, including 871 for export, 2,924 for consumption,
for speculation, and
in transit. Of the above
bales
were to arrive. The following are the official quotations for
each day of the past week September 13 to September 18.

The speculation in cotton for future delivery opened the
week under review with some appearance of strength, but
the bull party showed less vigor and confidence, and in the
course of Monday and Tuesday, under unfavorable foreign
advices, increased receipts at the ports and better weather at

per bbl., but low grades from winter wheat and the general
run of the products of spring wheat made little improvement. The close to-day was at about the best prices. Corn

a variety of rumors and reports from Europe, none of them
very important or tangible, but suflicient to make the bears
uneasy and bring them in as buyers to cover contracts. To"84a»S3 day there was a rumor that Russia had prohibited the exportation of wheat, but fuller advices on this point caused
a decline, though only part of the early advance was lost.

DoMBSTio WooLBs G )0DS.— Business in this department has
again been without particular feature. The demind preferred from day to day his run on strictly moieratejinea in
both heavy and light weight woolens and worsteds. Ia the
former stocks are light and prices steady all round. In the
latter the situation shows continued irregularity, som^ lines
having done so well that the season's production of them is
fairly covered, while in others agents have not secured
enough business to keep their mills in work, even at the present time. Cotton warps and wool and cotton mixtures are
still in bad shape, with prices irregular.
Overcoatings were
quiet throughout, but some lines of cloakings in boih medium
and h'gh-priced goods have been fairly well favored. Sitinets in light weights have done moderately well, as have soma
leading makes of doeskins and Kentucky jeans. Owing to
reduced production of Western mills, stocks of the latter are
more manageable than they were some tims ago. The movement in flannels, blankets and carpets was of a normal character. All-wool and worsted dress goods are in firsi-class
shape and manufacturers will have all they can do to overtake this season's demtnds in reasonable time.
Foreign Dry Gjods. Imp jrters have had another busy
week in leading lines of dress gojds and spscialties, buyers
replenishing their stosks with freedom. Ojcasional advances

orders by mail have been in keeping with the reports of unusually active distribution in progress throughout the West

the aggregate worked into any better shape during the
week, but except in the instance of heavy brown
goods agents are in no degree embarrassed by what
they have to carry.

considerably at the close of September; this year there are
reasonable grounds for the belief that it will be prolonged
