Hence, the conclusion bursed, according to the above official statement, about was hastily reached that the stringency in money which 44 million dollars in excess of its receipts of every kind. had developed had resulted from those causes.

Taking the 16J millions just as it is, that sum (in addition to the new Treasury notes issued and put out for the purchases of silver) counts of course as an important contribution to the supply of currency in the channels of commerce, and is evidence at once of the efforts of the Treasury safer basis As to the difference between the 16J millions and the 44 millions excess of disbursements indicated by the Treasury exhibit above, 6 millions of the amount represents payments for silver bullion purchases. Such payments being made in new Treasury notes specially created for that purpose would not diminish the Treasury holdings of net cash. Taking out the 6 millions on this account there is still a difference of 21^ million dollars between the Treasury loss in cash according to our exhibit and the excess of disbursements reported in the Treasury exhibit. This difference we should should judge must in the main represent disbursements which up to September 13th had not taken cash out of the Treasury. Gen. Nettleton, for instance, is quoted as saying that " the item of ordi"uary expenditures includes about $19,000,000 of pen"flion payments, checks for which began to be drawn "on September 4." We have italicized the word " began " because it seems to have much importance, sustaining the inference that many of these checks liad not been cashed at the time when the Treasury exhibit was prepared. Doubtless also some other of the ordinary expenditures are represented by amounts disbursed but not paid out. If this interpretation and construction of the results be correct, then there is con- Ashley says that while this particular reduction was in one sense voluntary, in another sense it was compulsory, "because of the clause in the Inter-State law " which forbids the application of the most effective " method known for the adjustment of suicidal com"petitive struggles."

Railway of Buenos Ayres It is to ; and just now it would seem as if the intention were to remit the gold that is to be sent to Buenos Ayres in small sums, in the hope that the market may not be alarmed. If, however, the shipments become frequent, apprehension is amost sure to lie excited. There is much uncertainty in the silver market here just now. The principal buyers are rather distrustful, and brokers are not very willing to deal freely. On Wednesday the price ro-_e to 54?gd. per ounce; but on Thursday the quotation was only 54}i'd., although no business was actually done, and the brokers refused to fix and send out a price, as they usually do, in the evening. Yesterday there was a further fall to 54d. Tlie decline is attributed here to the weakness of New York operators, who offered bullion at constantly falling prices. Little or no business was done on Thursday, but yesterday there were purchases, alleged to be on Continental account. The London market is for the time being following blindly, at a distance, the lead of New York, and most dealers here are acting very cautiously. There is an impression that speculation, not only in silver itself, but in silver securities, has been carried too far. Four-anda-half per cent rupee paper at one time this week was over 93; at another time it fell under 91; and it has since been fluctuating a good deal between the two extremes. There is no doubt that'the speculation in the security has been very large indeed, and though it has been led by very wealthy people and powerful institutions several weak speculators have also taken part in it, and some think that the account for the rise is getting top heavy. In Mexican railway stocks there has been a fall during the week attended by partial recovery. The rise in these stocks was based, no doubt, upon the early payment of a large sum by the Government in redemption of its subvention, as well as upon the benefit that would accrue to the company from the rise in silver, and the speculation has been wild and carried entirely too far. At the same time there appears to be an increased speculation in Berlin in Austrian silver rentes and in Russian silver and paper notes and bonds. The Russian and Austrian exchanges are rising very rapidly and are disorganizing the export trade. The Russian Finance Minister, while he naturally welcomes the rise in the exchange, is yet apprehensive that it may have serious consequences for the agricultural and exporting classes. It is said that he has been adopting various expedients for retarding the rise, and it is also alleged that the ukase just issued raising the import duties 20 per cent is intended to act as not only a check upon imports but as an assistance to exporters. The Austrian exchange has also risen very rapidly, and is impoverishing the agricultural classes. From India 866 in fact it would teem a.) if they were being comored. la about a month there has been a rise of conaider&bly over • hundred francs per share. Bank of Franco share* have also risen, and there is a large and active »p«'culatlon in diamond and shares and copyter shares. The shares of the Rio Tinto Company, which at one time fell to £9 in the jKinic caused by the failure of the Comptoir d'Escompte, are now as high as 25J^. The very highest price reached during the operations of th* Copper Syndicate was 27^. The company has a bonded debt of about 3l<i millions sterling, bearing 5 per cent interest, and redeemable by half-yearly drawings. The annual charge for interest and sinking fund is about £240,000. It is understood that a plan is being prepared for paying off the whole debt by the issue of new ehares in such a way that the whole of tha new shares together secure a dividend of 6 per cent out of the annuity of £240,000 which now goes to the bondholders. The activity of the Paris Bourse is stimulating business here in London, and there is much dealing in Rio Tinto and other copper shares, in De Beers and other diamond shares. The South African gold and land market is also higher, but there is less activity than last week in British railway stocks, and the market for American railroad securities is almost entirely neglected. It was hoped that on the resumption of business after Labor Day there would be a general rise in New York, as people concluded here that the monetary stringency was over and that the labor disputes would not prove serious. When, however, the rise did not take place the market was so greatly disappointed that for the time being at all events has disappeared. No movement of any importance has taken place in the Argentine, Uruguayan and Brazilian markets. But the tendency is weak, and there is really more apprehension than the quotations would seem to indiinterest in it cate. The weather has been more favorable this week than for two months past, and harvesting has made much progress. The general estimate appears to be that the wheat crop in the United Kingdom will be about an average, but that much of it will be soft and unfit for milling, at all events for several weeks to come. The price of English wheat is slightly lower this week than last, but on the other hand foreign wheat is rather higher. The markets, however, are very quiet, and the demand small. A parliamentary paper has just been issued containing the correspondence between the Board of Trade and the railway companies respecting the regulation of rates. The companies complain that the adoption of the figures proposed would diminish their present annual revenues so much as to render it quite impossible for the directors to submit to the proposa except under compulsion from Parliament. They all askj further time for negotiations, and will evidently offer the stoutest opposition in their power. The following return shows the position of the Bank o England, the Bank rate of discount, the price of consols, &c., compared with the last three years : 1880, Sept. 3. £ 1889. Sept. 4,. £ 1888. 1887, ilept.6. Stpt.7. £ £ likewise reports come of serious difficulties caused by the rapid rise in the exchange. The native dealers in Calcutta have Circulation combined upon a reduction in the prices of goods invoiced to them some time ago. The rise in the exchange is equivalent to a fall of from 20 to 25 per cent in the prices of European goods in India. And the native dealers claim that they are unable to pay the prices they had in fact agreed to pay. It is understood that the European importers are (Joyernment securities Other securities Reserve Coin and bullion afraid of enforcing their claims, lest they should drive too many of the native dealers into bankruptcy, and of course exporters are also complaining bitterly of the difficulties caused to them by the rise in exchange.

Pixley & Abell write as follows: Gold— Beyond some small orders for India, there have been no inquiries fur gold during the week, and the Bunk has purchased to insist The abundance and cheapness of money in Paris, the belief that European peace is assured for a considerable time to come, the improvement in French trade, and above all the Public deposits Other deposits Prop, assets to liabilities. per ct.

There was much doubt and discussion as to the proba- when it was definitely known that more than the amount named had been taken, and not only this, but that a but further large amount offered at higher prices had been rejected, the whole monetary situation relaxed. There is a point about the government bond situation that may not be apparent to the csisual observer, and that is, tliat there were on Sei)tember 1 about $93,000,000 of 4J^ per cent bonds outstanding, which fall due on September 1, 1891. AUowingfortheredemptionof such of these bonds as will be retired before their maturity, and there will probably still be enough of them outstanding on the first of September next to give the Treasury all the liberty it requires for disbursement of funds at that the time. Hence it follows that the Government will be comparatively independent of the holders of fours, and if any large amount of these have been accumulated by dealers to sell to the Secretary at high prices, they should induce him to take them this year, or else he may not take them at all. At the Stock Exchange everything has brightened up mawith the improved monetary prospect, and stocks have recovered decidedly from the low prices to which they had been pushed when the bears pressed their advantage. The outlooK is very good for the time being, and the tone of terially comparatively cheerful. The open market rates for call loans during the week on stock and bond collaterals have ranged from 2 to 6 per cent plus J^ per cent a day commission, the highest rates having ruled on Monday; 7 per cent has been a fair average. Today rates on call were 2 to 5 per cent till Monday, and the high rates of last Friday were similarly for three days. Prime commercial paper is quoted at 6:^7 percent. The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed a decrease in specie of £495,000, and the percentage of reserve to liabilities was 44-01, against 45'4S last week; the discount rate remains unchanged at 4 per cent. The Bank of France lost 11,000,000 francs in gold and gained 2,000,000 francs in silver. The New York Clearing House banks in their statement of Sept. 13 showed a decrease in the surplus reserve of §1,905,800, there being a deficit below the required reserve of $3,306,925, against $1,401,125 the previous week. 70( paid O0HU tftM Pwrch'u oterintt IMn.

State and Railroad Bonds.— State bonds have fully recovered from the decline sustained early in the we?k. The sales comprise Georgia 78 gold, $20,000 at lOli^ d| 101?^; Tennessee Settlement 3s, $11,.500 at 72<i73. and 6s, $3,000 at 106; Virginia consols 6s, ei-matured coupon. $10,000 at 53. better inquiry is manifest for railroad bonds, and prices have in most cases more than made good the shrinkage due to tight money. If comparison is drawn with the closing price two weeks since (there having been undue depressioa Atchison 43 last Friday) the following changes are seen Ohio general 4< at Mobile closing at 845^, against Reading 4s at 82i^, against 81,»|; 661^, against 65%; Phil.

Among such were Rock Island, Lake New Erie & Westernpreferred, Missouri Pacific, New York England, Northern Pacific common. North American, etc., etc. With easier money and a better feeling generally, a material improvement in prices has followed. The legal proceedings against the Chicago Gas Trust are said to lack the importance at first ascribed to them, and the stock, from 43?^^ last Friday (and 40?g on Monday), was up to 47?,^ to-day, closing at 47?^. The Rio Grande Western has also recovered sharply from its decline, and the preferred stock on Thursday jumped from 451^ to 50, closing to-day at 51. Northern by the Chicago The purchase of the Milwaukee Milwaukee St. Paul, announced yesterday, was made the ground for a bear attack on St. Paul, it being assumed that the purchase meant a further issue of common stock, which was therefore sold down to 66}^, equal to the lowest of the year, closing to-day at 68}^.

Passenger earnings fell off $26,576, this decrease being largely due to a reduction in the train service." • * " The increase of $217,870 in freight earnings comes mainly from coal, coke, ore, lime, hay, grain, limestone, railway material and general merchandise." * * "The satisfactory result of the year's bus^iness has been attained solely by the development of local traffic, as the Rio Grande Junction Railway, which, when completed, will give your road a connection with Salt Lake City and the Pacific Coast, has not yet been finished. This road ought to have been opened by May, but unexpected delays in obtaining materials for the track and the g^-eat difficulty experienced in getting labor, have hindered its completion.

Construction of this line was commenced one year ago. From Hartshome, the Southern Division will branch to Denison, Texas, and will obtain the haul on a heavy tonnage of coal. The output of the mine — along this proposed branch is already about 600 tons per day.s The contract for the western division, from McAlester to Fort Reno, 165 miles, has been awarded, and work will soon be commenced and pushedl to rapid completion. The total projected mileage of the system is about 450 miles. The company was chartered by Act of Congress in 1888.

This is caused by the abandonment and taking up of track ^between Emmetsburg and Estherville, in Iowa. The lines of road are located as follows 318-08 miles In Illinois 1,310-09 miles In Wisconsin l,.553-27 miles In Iowa 1,120-09 miles In Minnesota 11821 miles In North Dakota 1,096-82 miles In South Dakota 140-27 miles Hn Missouri : Total length of main track 5,656-83 miles The consti-uction of the following new road has been begun '<3uring the year, but is not yet completed: From Necedah, on the Necedah Branch of the La Crosse CDivision, to Dexterville Junction, on the Wisconsin Valley XKvision, a distance of 17 miles; and from Lynn, Clark CounTty, Wisconsin, northwesterly in the direction of Greenwood, <Jlark County, a distance of 12 miles. This construction is Lake ibeing done under the name of the Lisbon Necedah •.Superior Railway Co., and has been undertaken in order to open the hard-wood country iu that section, and make it tributary to the main lines of this Company. Negotiations have been concluded, to take effect July 1st, for the acquisition of the railroad already constructed from Dexterville Junction to Lynn, with branches, azgregating 40-92 miles, at a cost of $531,960. Construction of the following second main track, aggregating 35 miles, has been beguu and will be completed by & vnnter: Lake to Minerva, on the Chicago & Milwaukee Division. Savanna to Mt. Carroll, Cragin to Mont Clare, and Genoa to Davis Junction, on the Chicago & Council Bluffs Divi- sion. The line from Estherville to Emmetsburg in Iowa, not cov«red by any mortgage, about 22 miles in length, has been abandoned and the track taken up. This action was ordered by the Board, because the line did not pay operating expenses and required the expenditure of a considerable sum for re- newals. This Company has concluded a contract with the Union Pacific Railway Company by which it obtains the riglit to the «se of the Union Pacific main tracks from the terminus of this Company's tracks in Council Bluffs, Iowa, to a point in South Omaha, including the use of the bridge over the ]\Iissouri River and the Union Passenger Station in Omaha, with other rights necessary to place this Company on the same basis as if it owned its own tracks from Council Bluffs to South Omaha. This contract is for a period of nine hundred and ninety-nine years. It obviates the necessity of building another bridge at Omaha, which had been seriously considered by the Board.

Seventeen thousand three hundred and eighteen tons of steel rails and 1,431,878 cross-ties have been put in the track, and there are now 4,074-77 miles of main track laid with steel and 1,582-06 miles with iron rails. About 4 2-5 miles of pile and trestle bridges have been filled with earth, and a large number of wooden culverts have been replaced with iron. The entire cost of filling has been charged to operating exnenses. About 1,600 feet of wooden bridges have been, or are in process of being, replaced with iron structures. Of the amount expended in this work during the year, $39,968 44, representing the cost of replacement with wooden structures, has been charged to operating expenses and $61,526 05 has been charged permanent improvements. During the year 12 locomotives have been purchased at a cost of $102,763 06 and 2 have been built at the West Milwaukee shops {it a cost of $14,677 36; 9 locomotives have been scrapped, and 12, too light for service, have been sold. Two hundred and fifteen furniture cars, costing $104,000 43; 400 lumber cars, costing $178,174 98; 3 baggage, mail and express cars, costing $9,548 74, and 1 flat car, costing $391 33, have been built at the West Milwaukee shops. There has also been expended during the year in the Company's shops, for steam heat and electric light equipment, air brakes, automatic couplers and other improvements to rolling to sum of $109,093 95. for new rolling stock, the sum of $197,857 55 lias been charged to expenses during the year, for the purpose of maintaining at tlie cost of operating expenses the full capacity of the equipment. The rate per ton per mile on the freight traffic of the past year was 995-1000 of a cent. In the previous year it was 1 59-1000 cents. If the freight tonnage of the past year had been can-ied at the average rate of the previous year, the revenues ^of the Company would have been increased $1,178,134 95, all of stock, the Of the above expenditure which would have been net revenue. ....;!r^ During the past year traffic conditions have been unfavoraThe withdrawal of some of the most important lines ble. from the Inter-State Association deprived the railways of an influence which, although it could not altogether prevent reductions of rates, yet exerted a most wholesome restraint and saved much revenue.

Olie Jience to the law will cure some of the evils that prevail, but will not enable inferior lines to compete with superior lines on even termsaud secure a sufficient share of the traffic to support them. The only result possible imder the law, as it now stands, is the absorption of the weaker by the stronger; and that is a painful process which cau stop only when there is but one corporation, and competition is absolutely destroyed. Unrestrained competition will, in the end, destroy all competition. The efforts of Legislatures and Railway Commissions have also contributed not a little toward reduction of rates. An improvement in public sentiment had leen hoped for, but is not yet apparent. It can hardly be expected until hostility to railways ceases to be a short route to political preferment.

The decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of this Company against the State of Minnesota, known as the " Milk Case,'^ rendered at its last sesrion, is very important, as settling and defining the powers of the Legislature in fixing rates of transportation. The statute of that State authorized the Railroad Commission, in certain contingencies, to fix the compensation to be paid railroad companies for transportation. The Commission assumed to fix the rates of this Company for the transportation of milk. The Company claimed that the compensation fixed was inadequat* and unreasonably low, and retused to comply with the order of the Commission establishing the rate. The Commission applied to the Supreme Court for a mandamus to compel the Company to adopt the rate fixed. The Company answered that it was unjust and unreasonable. The Supreme Court of Minnesota held that the statute authorized the Comthat the Company could not be missioners to fix the rate heard to object that the rate was not a reasonable and just rate that the rate fixed by the Commissioners was the only reasonable rate under the law that the Company was bound to obey it, and that the Court had no power to inquire into the question as to the reasonableness of the rate fixed by The reorganization of the Wabash Company under the plan formulated November 21, 1887, ending with the consolidation of the Wabash Western Railway Company with the lines east of the Mississippi River, having been perfected, the Wabash Western Railway Company on July 1, 1889. took possession of the lines which had been operated by Receiver McNulta for two years and four months, and the properties were practically merged at that date, although actual legal po-isession was not authorized until August 1, 1889. The history of the long and costly struggle to preserve the essential unity of the Pacific Railway principal lines of the Wabash St. Louis Company, and to adjust the interest burdens of the new Company to the new conditions of railway property, is too well known to the stockholders to require more than this brief reference. Seldom, if ever, in the railway history of the & United States have such complicated and difficult questions been presented for solution, and this successful result, after five years of constant and discouraging effort, should be grati- fying to all parties interested. The accounts of the Wabash Western Railway Company having been merged with those of the consolidated Company July 1, 1889, the fiscal year of the latter Company commences at that date, and the by-lawg have been framed accordingly, thus complying also with the suggestions of the Inter State Commerce Commission for a uniform fiscal year ending June 30 for all Railway Companies. the Commission. In order to preserve the continuity of accounts, in statistiThe Company removed the case by writ of error to the Supreme Court of the United States, and that Court filed a de- cal information, the operations of the Wabash Western, and of the east lines under the charge of General McNulta, are cision by which the decision of the Supreme Court of Minnesota was reversed, the Court holding that although the Legis- given herewith in separate tables, followed by full statements lature had the power to regulate and control railroads, they of the operations of the Consolidated lines under the name were not authorized to fix their compensation below what was of the Wabash Railroad Company for the fiscal year ending reasonable for the service rendered that the question as to June 30, 1890.

The Tolume of business for the year shows, therefore, an increase of 564.578 tons, while the rate per ton per mile shows a decrease of 1 9-100 mills, and this decrease in rates makes a difference in the net earnings of the year of $1,558,915 09. In other words, the net earnings of 1890, applicable to interest, would have been §4,659,527 41, instead of $3,100,612 32, if the rates had been the same as in 1889. Whatever growth there may have been, therefore, in the amount of traffic has been largely neutralized by the constant depreciation in rates. The Funded Debt of the Company, details of which will be found in the Auditor's Report, amounts to $78,000,000. Of this $9,000,000, bearing 7 per cent interest, matures in 1895. Practically there is no floating debt— no obligations of this character existing which could not be discharged at ouce if advisable to anticipate them. Reference to the report of the General Manager will show that considerable sums have been expended in maintaining and improving the condition of the roadway and structures and in renewals of rolling stock. The road-bed is, generally, in flrst-class condition, and every mile of the main track is laid with steel rails; but parts of the line west of the Mississippi River lack proper ballast, and quite a number of depressions from a proper working level, called "sags" in railway parlance, must be taken out and brought into correspondence with average grades, and the embankments widened before providing Much work has been done on the east lines in this ballast. direction. If an expenditure of $500,000 could, however, be made in a single year on lines west of the Mississippi River, it •would be true economy in the end. The loss in operating expenses over grades which constantly expose freight trains to breaks in couplings and other damage would, if saved, amply provide interest on any sum expended in removing such annoying inequalities of surface, to say nothing of the greater expense and waste of power in surmounting unnecessary gradients. To secure the maximum of business at the minimum of expense it is absolutely necessary to place the lines of the Wabash upon an equality with those of its comin regard to rates, which has occupied the attention of railway managers in this country for several years, still awaits solution. Abundant crops and a successful harvest told favorably upon the traffic of all lines within the agricultural area of the West, and especially within the grain Never, however, in the history of railway transportabelts. tion have such enormous crops been moved from producers to consumers at such low rates and but for the magnitude of The great problem ; movement could not have been accomplished without serious loss to the carriers. The result is that a year which within the last decade would have given large profits to the railway lines employed has only yielded enough to pay a very the ence with property rights to the extent of dictating maximum rates of transportation without the judgment of the Court, and against the protest of the carriers, is a practical confiscation of property " without due process of law." It is a curious and noteworthy fact that in the New England States, and in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, where railway companies are as a rule justly and liberally treated, the profits are comparatively large, and the improvements for the safety and comfort of travelers keep pace with, the progressive spirit of the times; while in the States wherehostile legislation has been most conspicuous the profits of local roads, or from business on other roads within the boundary lines of those States, have been unreasonably small. Theonly fairly prosperous roads, for example, in the State of Iowa, are those of great systems, such as the Chicago & Northwestern, the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul, the Chicago Rock Island & Pacific and the Chicago Burlington & Quincy roads, which derive their profits largely from traffic passing over their lines through the State. Eliminating the roads operated by these great corporations, scarcely a company can be named in Iowa which has not gone through bankruptcy within the last decade. Similar results have attended railway operations in Kansas and Texas, and while such facts may not be attributable to adverse legislation, they may be taken as a fair proof that excessive profits on the part of the carriers have not been exacted. It is difficult to find in these conditions anything to justify harsh treatment by State legislatures or the hostile attitude of the Farmers' Alliance. No railway can thrive permanently in this country which does not consult the interest of its patrons and which does not co-operate practically and heartily in all measures to encourage the growth and develop the prosperity of its resident population; and no community can thrive which ojjpresses and cripples the agencies of transportation. It may take time to demonstrate this, but a fundamental principal governsthe case and experience will establish the truth of the propositions. The number of railway employees in the State of Iowa inwas 5,594 less than m 188S, and the amount paid to the 1889 employees petitors. it moderate interest on the capital invested. The so-called "Trunk Lines" have been enabled to maintain dividends of 4 and 5 per cent on their stock, and some of the most prosperous of the Western lines have done even better than this, while others have only succeeded in earning a fair surplus over interest on funded debts. The brilliant exhibition of a very large increase in the volume of gross earnings has served to disguise the fact that the average profits, even in such a successful year, have been much less than what would be considered a reasonable return on the capital in vt sted. And yet, in the face of these indisputable facts, freight rates have been upon a descending scale during the year, having actually struck an average reduction of over compared with those ruling 20 per cent in the last quarter as in the last six months of 1889. This particular reduction is, in one sense, voluntary on the part of tiie railway companies, but, in another, compulsory, because of the clause in the Inter-State law which forbids the application of the most effective method known for the adjustment of suicidal competitive struggles. Hostile State legislation is still to be recognized, however, as an influential factor in the case, although it has recently had less popular support. People are beginning to understand the close union which exists between the avenues of trade and the trade itself, and to distinguish between intelligent government and oppression. The growth of this reactionary feeling will be more evident as information is acquired first, because injustice will not be tolerated by the great majority of the people, and. second, because general prosperity is not compatible with class legislation. As a rule, the complaints against railway companies, upon which objectionable laws are founded, are neither supported nor justified by the facts. The proof of this is overwhelming and conclusive. The rates of transportation over railway lines in the United States are lower than in any other country in the world, and have been voluntarily reduced by the railway companies ; and it any discrimination exists in distance tarfes it is in favor of distant producers and for the benefit of consumers. The necessaries of life produced in the remote fields of Kansas, Nebraska and Dakota are thus mada available to consumers at the seaboard and in Europe. Cast-iron rules which would stop or obstruct this beneficent supply would cause wide-spread mischief and perhaps actual distress. It is so clearly for the interest of carriers to encourage and develop business by reasonably low rates and superior service that legislation upon these points appears superfluous and unnecessary; but, nevertheless, just and intelligent supervision is not objectionable to railway companies. The people have a Tight to legal protection against the possible exactions of car'' Jiers, aad to prevent improper discrioiiuation; but a/sx ifttetfer; [Vol. LI. SI, 4C 6,826 less than in 1888. "The causes that led to this reduction." say the Railroad Commissioners of that State, "were diminished tonnage onInter-State business, and the reduction of expenses resuhiag from the reduction of the number of trains, and the economies introduced to meet these conditions." If to the causes stated the Commissioners had added that of the arbitrary and unreasonable reduction of rates by the State Commissioners, the facts would have been fully given. Causes which lead to the throwing out of employment of nearly 6,000 men in a single year, and the cutting off of wages to the amount of $1,400,000 during the same period, cannot be cited as proof of wisdom on the part of the legislators of the State of Iowa, unless measures to curtail the employment of" workingmen are considered desirable, and a diminishing industry can be taken as evidence of increasing prosperity. Railw ay employees, consisting of nearly a million of active, intelligent men in the prime of life, and all voters, seem tobe utterly insensible to the danger which threatens them in this unprovoked and unjustifiable war against railways. And yet this persecution is more prejudicial to the industrial classes which live upon the product of railway traffic than any grievance which labor organizations can find in railway administration. The time will come when railway labor will present its claim for equal protection under the laws which are intended to favor and encourage American industry. It will be finally discovered that legislation which cripples and weakens the agencies of transportation is not in harmony with the intelligent and progressive spirit of the age. When the employees of railways and of affiliated industriesawaken to the knowledge of the fact that legislation is directed against their interests, under cover of an attack upon railway property, and that the effect of reducing the paying^ capacity of railways is to limit the power of these coinpaiiies to compensate their employees, and to check the construction of railways as well as to diminish the work of hundreds of manufacturing industries, they may perhaps see the necessity of opposing in every legitimate way a policy which has already interfered seriously with the traffic which gives them employment.

There have been no important changes in current quotations in flour and meal during the week under review, but trading has been slow throughout, and the tme so fitful and uncertain that the market has been quite unsetded, and our figures are for the most part nearly nominal. To-day there was no new feature. The wheat market has been feverishly unsettled. The dearness of money early in the week was an element of weakness. Some speculative manipulation followed the relief of the market from that influence, and momentary buoyancy prevailed. Receipts have been increasing at the Northwestern markets, and to-day this influence, together with the report Ihat Russia has resumfd free shipments, caused the loss cf yesterday's advance. The spot market has been quiet, but in the past day or two rather more export inquiry has been noticed.

Bleached shirtings ranging from 6)4 to 9o, per yard were moderately active, but low grades and the finest qualities were a trifle slow. Fine white goods were fairly active in some quarters, and there was a mo derate business in colored cottons.

M., September 19, 1890. Business in the wholesale branches of the dry e:oods trade was less active the past week, the recurrance of Hebrew holidays and very unfavorable wetither conditions in the fore part of the period under review having caused many buyers to hold aloof from the market. Very fair reorders for seasonable goods were, however, received by the commission houses through their traveling salesmen and direct by mail and wire, and reports regarding the distribuling trade in most sections of the interior continued satisfactory. Spring and summer goods were in fair demand by large jobbers and the manufacturing trade, and very good orders for certain descriptions were placed by buyi rs on the spot, and with the representatives of commission houses and importers on the road. The jobbing trade was considerably below the average of preceding weeks, but a very fair distrimtion of staple and department goods was made by the ptincipal houses. Domestic 'Wooles Goods.— There was a stiictly moderate demand for men's-wear woolens at first hand.-, and the jobbing trade in this connection was comparativfl; quiet. Heavy woolen and worsted suitings were in steady request for the renewal of Esaortments, andsttcksareso well in hand that desirable makes are firmly held by selling agents and jobbers alike. Heavy overcoatings were in moderate demand by clothiers, and spring fabrics of this class were taken in relatively small parcels to a fair aggregate amount. Spring cassimeres were in irregular demand and upon the whole sluggisb, but there was a steady call for small duplicate parcels of light-weight pi. cc-dyed and faiicy worsted suitings and serge suitings. Satinets continued in fair request, and there was a light busineps in Kentucky jeans and doeskics.
