THE COURSE OF OUR FOREIGN TRADE.
The
varying phases in the conditions affecting the
movements of money are
claiming increased attention in
all business circles.
This is very
natural, since

South for money seem to keep up a

the first place, too much is made of the unusual imports
at this port last week. It is more reasonable to con¬
sider them
exceptional; and the figures to be published
to-day will be much less. This is the natural con¬
clusion whether we judge from the imports of previous
weeks, or from the changed nature (compariug with last
year) of our internal trade. Last winter and spring, the
large total imports were the natural product of an
unhealthy and excited speculation here. There is noth¬
ing of the kind in progress now. Business is active and
all industries are prosperous; but there is a remarkable
absence of speculation.
The values of all foreign prod¬
ucts are therefore lower here than then, and
although
consumption is large, there is no such stimulus to the
import trade as there was during those months.
Furthermore, our export trade is in a much more
healthy state. It is quite a remarkable feature that
notwithstanding our breadstuff exports have been
much smaller in quantities and still smaller in values than
a year ago, our total
exports, have been considerably
larger, showing that the export movement of merchan¬
dise is of a more general character, that is, that many
articles which were temporarily excluded from foreign
markets by our high speculative prices, are now
again securing a market. Breadstuffs and cotton have
hardly as yet 'begun to move. Notwithstanding these
facts, the balance in our favor on the merchandise
movement continues fairly satisfactory.
For July it
was
about
$14,000,000. JThe August totals it is
expected will he published next Monday or Tuesday.
Judging, however, from the returns already known of the
chief cities, we are inclined to believe that the August
balance will be not very much less; and for September,
if we take the New York figures for the basis of au esti¬
mate and give them a proportion to the whole similar to
the proportion they bore in September, 1879, the excess
of exports would be even larger, making a net trade
balance for the three months somewhere about
forty
million dollars.
Of course this total is smaller than it was for the same

outline of the situation two months
since (Chronicle, July 31, page 109), we stated that three
different parties were seeking concessions for lines to the
capital city—the Mexican Central, in the interest of the
Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe, the Sullivan & Palmer
party, and the Southern Pacific party. We also in that
article explained that the Mexican Congress, in which all
power in the matter is vested, did not, when these several
schemes were submitted to it, undertake to decide upon
their respective merits, but delegated its authority to Presi¬
dent Diaz, whose decision 'was to be final.
The act which
conferred this authority is known- as the Law of June 1,
and by it General Diaz had until September 16 to an¬
nounce his determination.
As the date for action has
now expired, it will be interesting to note the results, so

On this piece about 5,000 men are at present,
past so prominent a part
employed, and over $200,000 a month are being expended.
Mr. Rudolph Fink, brother of Mr. Albert Fink, hasrecently been appointed general manager, and he will
assume charge of the company’s affairs on the
1st of
October. The third instalment upon the capital stock,
being for 10 per cent, has been called for, makingaltogether 25 per cent called in so far. It is expected tohave 35 miles into the city of Mexico ready for operation
in time to be opened by General Diaz before the expira¬
tion of his term of office.
As soon as the Atchison Topeka
and Santa Fe reaches El Paso—it is now within 100 miles
of that point, having reached Fort Thorn the other day—
it is intended to begin construction at the northern end of
the line also.
El Paso seems destined to become quite
an important railroad centre, as there are no less than six
roads at present reaching out for it, namely the Atchison
Topeka & Santa Fe, the Southern Pacific, the Texas &
Pacific, the Mexican Central, the Sonora, and the Galves¬
ton Harrisburg & San Antonio.
Under the contract just approved by the Mexican
Government, the Mexican Central gets a subsidy of $9,500
per kilometer, equivalent to about $15,200 per mile, and
no
subsidy is to be given' to any other road within 65miles of either side of the line.
The subsidy is payable by

received there from the city of Mexico, and that General
Diaz had conceded the line to the Pacific coast to Mr.
Palmer (Sullivan & Palmer), the line to El Paso to Mr.
Symon (Mexican Central), and the road to Laredo to the
Southern Pacific Company.
This is slightly at variance
with the contents of a telegram received by the Mexican
Central people from their Chief Engineer, Mr. Schuyler.
He telegraphs that his company has obtained concessions
for a road to El Paso and to the Pacific Coast, and that the
Government has signed the contract.

It may precipitate revolt.
In any case the
execution of the obnoxious decree will give offence to
millions of people in France—men and women who will
hereafter associate the republic with persecuting and
intolerant practices.
It is evident from the tone of the
public press in France that the sentiment of the better
portion of the nation, is with M. de Freycinet; and there
is much reason to fear that M. Gambetta, in pushing his
principles, has overshot the mark and really injured the
prospects of the republic.
It is impossible to overlook the fact that with the fall of
M. de Freycinet has passed away the last really effective
check to the extreme or radical school of politicians, who
have steadily, for years, been coming to the front, and
who have now, to all appearance, the destinies not only of
the republic but of France in their hands.
This is the
more to be
regretted that they are wedded to a dangerous
foreign policy. It is this which, even more than their do¬
mestic policy, is fitted to inspire alarm.
There is the
possibility that France may submit without open resistance
to the closing of the institutions not authorized by law, and

To say this is to say nothing prejudicial to the prospects of
the Mexican Central, for that road should command,
besides the through business, a large and constantly in¬
creasing loc al traffic from the districts along its line, as
aside from the advantages which the mines give it, the
country is most favorable to raising sheep and producing
wool. Moreover, the Laredo route is, up to this time, purely

Refusing the burden and responsibility of office himself,
he has yet been greater and more powerful than any of the
ministers or than any of the Presidents, who, during these
years, have successively held office.
His policy has been
steady and persistent. An ardent and pronounced repub¬
lican, yet not in sympathy with the extreme forms of
socialism, his aim has been to reconstruct the social and
political fabric on a solid republican basis. W ith this end
in view he has been the unfailing enemy of a temporizing

Memphis City Bonds.—The New York Times reports that
the conference between the commission appointed by the Ten¬
nessee Legislature and the New York holders of Memphis bonds,
relative to patching up a compromise of the debt of Memphis,
was held at No. 39 Pine Street.
T. B. Turley and Dr. A. T.
Porter were the only members of the commission present. R.
B. Snowden, John Overton, Jr., Judge John M. Lee, John R.
Goodwin, F. S. Davis and F. S. Cossjtt were the only bond¬
holders who appeared. The proceedings were secret, and all
information was subsequently refused, except that the com¬
mission has concluded their business here and that a satisfactory
arrangement will probably be arrived at.
—The Baltimore Sun states that at the meeting held last
week in Baltimore. Receiver Latham reported the debt of Mem¬
phis, January 1, 1879, at $4,554,009. Taking the compromise
bonds at their par value, $1,054,000, the total indebted¬
ness
January 1, 1881, would be $5,600,000, or with interest
$6,000,000. This, with other claims, would make it $6,600,000.
The assets were nominally $1,400,000, which embraced back taxes
for 22 years, and of which not more than $500,000 would be re¬
alized, leaving the total indebtedness of Memphis, January 1,
1881, at about $6,000,000. The assessed valuation of Memphis
was $14,942,4S0, and
$2,500,000 was delinquent for State,
county and city taxes, the county and State taxes being a prior
lien for nearly $527,000 before the city was paid. The question
was, what amount’ of taxes could the property bear ?
State
and county taxes would be 75 cents and city taxes $1 50, and
the utmost limit the property could bear was 3 per cent. When
the old city government was repealed there was not a cent of
public property. Since then they were getting their streets
and
sewers
in
working condition. The idea was to
raise $100,000 or $120,000 each year, which would pay
the interest on and provide a sinking fund for part of the debt.
Anv settlement the bond-owners would agree to would suit,
either to take a small bond with large interest or a large bond
with short interest.

Pittsburg and Erie, there is a discrep¬
ancy in the figures published, as compared with the statements
issued in 1879. The net surplus over liabilities for the eight
months of 1880 is reported by the company ju3t as we give it
in the table below—at $1,879,249—but it is said to be an increase
over the corresponding eight months of 1879 of $2,116,103.
Our
table for each month of 1879, however, compiled below, shows
that there was then a net surplus of $99,952, making the gain
this year only $1,779,297. The discrepancy, as explained by the
Treasurer, results from charging at tie end of the year certain

Richmond & Allegheny.—Work on this railroad between
Richmond and Lynchburg is advancing rapidly. On Sept. 21
the road was opened for travel and traffic between Richmond
and Maiden’s Adventure, 27 miles, between which points there
has been no communication for several weeks owing to the
closing of the canal.
Rochester & State Line.—At Rochester, September 23,
the suit of the City of Rochester against Isaac S. Waterman, of
Philadelphia, Henry A. Taylor, Thomas Leighton, and others,
to recover $600,000 for the non-delivery of that amount of the
capital stock of the Rochester & State Line Railway Company,
was decided against the city, and the complaint dismissed with
The case was tried in May and submitted to the full

bench in July. Judge Rumsey rendered the decision. This
case was mentioned last April as causing Mr. Vanderbilt’s with¬
drawal from the Directory of the State Line Road, which de¬
faulted on its interest payments in January, and is now in the
hands of a Receiver—S. j. Macy. The road runs to Salamanca.
Schuylkill Navigation Company.—The Philadelphia Ledger
has
the*following:
Financial Editor of Public Ledger: Will you please answer a constant
reader through the columns of your money article :
1. What are the general terms of the lease of the Schuylkill
receivers of the Reading ?
to be carried out by the present
Inquirer.
The lease of the Schuylkill Navigation property to the Phila¬
delphia & Reading Railroad Company is dated July 12, 1870, is
for 999 years, and provides for the quarterly payment of an
annual sum sufficient to pay full interest on all the indebted¬
ness of the lessor company and dividends of 1^
per cent on the
preferred and % per cent on the common stock. The original
rental was $655,000 per annum, which has, under the terms of
the lease, been somewhat reduced by the reduction of some of
the indebtedness of the Navigation Company. In addition to
the obligations of the lease, the Philadelphia & Reading Rail¬
road Company directly guarantees the principal and interest of
four of the loans of the Navigation Company, and guarantees
the interest of two others; but there is no guarantee by the
Railroad Company of any dividend to the shareholders of the
Navigation Company beyond the covenant in the lease to pay a
fixed rental, which is sufficient, if paid, to enable the
Naviga¬
tion Company to declare the dividends above named. As the
canal has for many years entailed a loss to the Reading
Rail¬
road Company, we should presume that the present receivers
(who have already furnished the means to pay the interest
upon the first and second mortgage debts) would ask for some
reduction of rental, which would
necessarily be borne by the
later bondholders and the shareholders.
Shenandoah
Valley.—This road is now in full operation
Hagerstown to Milford, in Page County, Va. It is
expected to connect with the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad at
Waynesburg in December, and will thence go on to Lynchburg.
At Hagerstown it unites with the Cumberland
Valley Road, and
thus with the main stem of the Pennsylvania Road. The new
Shenandoah Valley Road is seventy-six miles long as
already
completed, and is designed to be eventually one hundred and
forty-three miles in length. Thus there are two railroads now
from
ing with the Pennsylvania system.—Baltimore Sun.
Tennessee State Bonds.—A press dispatch from Memphis,
Sept. 21, says that, in the U. S.Circuit Court, Judge Ham¬
mond overruled a motion for the dismissal of suits against cer¬
tain railroads of the State made by the attorney representing
the holders of Tennessee State bonds, deciding the defendants
entitled to a hearing on the merits, and set the cases for trial
next Monday.
These cases bring up the responsibility of
the State for a portion of the State debt, and
practically involved the same questions argued before Judge
Withey at Nashville last May, and still held under advisement
by him.
Titusville & Oil City.—This road, from Oil City to Petroleum
Centre, on the opposite side of the river from the Pittsburg
Titusville & Buffalo, has been completed. The new road has
cost a little over $40,000, for though it is nine miles long it is
laid with old rails, and there was very little grading
left to be done, so that the cost of the sleepers and the labor
were the principal items.
Toledo Delphos & Burlington.—The last rail was laid Sep¬
tember 17 on this railroad, connecting Dayton and Versailles,
a distance of fifty miles.
This portion of the road will be bal¬
lasted and ready for use in a few weeks. Work is progressing
rapidly on the remainder of the road, and by November will
probably be completed to Toledo.
Wabash St. Louis & Pacific.—A .special meeting of the
Wabash stockholders has been called for November 20, at St.
Louis, for the purpose of confirming certain important agree¬

The agreement which occupies apparently the most signifi¬
cant place in the notice may also prove to be one of the most
important—this is the contract with the Wabash St. Louis &
Pacific Railway Company of Nebraska. This company is being
organized for the purpose of constructing a road from some
point on the Missouri River towards Red Cloud, about 200 miles
west of that river. This road will enter the Republican Valley,
and take away business from the Chicago Burlington & Quincy
Company’s Nebraska line.
The official notice to the Wabash St. Louis & Pacific stock¬
holders is as follows :
A special meeting of the stockholders of this
company will he held at
the office of the company, at St. Louis, Mo., on Saturday, November 20,
1880, commencing at 10 o’clock A. M., to act upon the following agree¬

There is very little that is really new to report regarding the
state of mercantile affairs. The excitement attending the can¬

profits. There wa3 some effort on Tuesday morning to
check the decline, but with only momentary results ; On Wed¬
nesday, however, with less favorable weather reports, an active
demand sprang up, causing a material advance in values. Thurs¬
day was less buoyant—quite variable, closing irregular, with a
alight advance except for Sept.
This morning, with better
accounts from Liverpool, though in a great measure anticipated,
there was an advance, favored by the lowering aspect of the
vreather at the South, and for the later months the best prices
of the week were made, with a strong tone. Cotton on the spot has
been moderately active for export and consumption.
There was
a decline of 1-lGc. on Tuesday, with nominally an equal reduc¬
tion on Wednesday; but to-day the market was very strong, with

Receipts prom the Plantations.—The following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations.
Receipts at the outports are some¬
times misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another, at the expense of the interior stocks.
We reach,
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations, of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

We have nothing really new under this head to add to our
observations of a month ago. For the immediate future the
market will continue in a more or less artificial
condition, in
consequence of the scarcity of the medium and better grades
of American, which are in good demand
both for consumption
and for declaration against
contracts; and it may be that prices
will experience a further advance
during the course of the
current month. So far, there are no
signs of what is termed a
“
corner,” inasmuch as 44 contracts” are still lower in
price than
“
spots.”
The late rise in prices is due, therefore, more to the
than to the operations of
speculators; and
the present quotations for the better
grades of American would

things would have existed if
spinners had used a smaller proportion of the higher grades,
which are scarce, and a larger
proportion of the lower grades,
which are plentiful; but it is evident that
they have not found
it compatible with their
requirements and engagements to
adopt this policy. Whether a corner shall be established or
not before the end of the month remains
to be seen. Every¬
thing depends upon the extent to which September deliveries
are oversold, and on this
point it is impossible to speak with
authority. Meanwhile, spinners are purchasing as little cotton
as possible,
which is only another way of saying that they are
rapidly using up their surplus stocks. Business in Manchester
is also
similarly temporarily circumscribed. This putting on of
the brake, so to speak, will, no
doubt, moderate tne advancing
tendency of prices for the time being; but will not the removal
of the brake also moderate the decline when the
squeeze is over ?
Touching the probabilities
of supply and demand for the new
season, we can only repeat what we stated last month,
that with good trade a crop of 6,000,000 bales will be namely,

Rye, after showing some decline, has latterly ruled firm.
Yesterday there were moderate sales at 95@96c. on the spot
and for September; but to-day was dull and depressed, with car¬
loads selling at 91c. Barley more active; two boat-loads of
six-rowed State sold at 86@90e., to arrive.
Oats have fluctuated widely, with a brisk trade—mainly on
speculation. Yesterday prices were back to about the quota¬
tions of a week ago, but the market was much less active.
To-day there was a sharp decline, No. 2 mixed closing ac 44c.
on the spot, 33%e. for October and 38 %c. for November.
