Notwithstanding the large falling off in the nominal
value of the cotton crop, we have here a total esti­
mated valuation on these four products taken to­
gether of about $425,000,000 more than in beptembtr of last year. As a matter of fact, corn will prob­
ably be marketed at an average price lower, and
cotton at an average p r i c e considerably higher, than
the prices above given, as this is partially mdioa e m
both cases by the prices of their distant futures, whi

of the principal, will gradually rise to 80 to 90 for four
per cents and 95 to 100 for five per cents. This view is
also strengthened by the increase in silver notes which is
steadily taking place in our currency at the rate of
about $4,500,000 per month.
What can be said of income bonds and preferred
stocks, which stand nearly on the same basis so far

as concerns their claim for dividends o j j acb one of
these issues depends so exclusively on its own merits that
nothing can be said of them as a whole class, but it
can be asserted 'quite positively that many of them
have better dividend prospects for the next twelve
months than they have had for a long time previously.
To put the subject more practically before the S u p p l e ­
m e n t readers, the following list is made up of all the
principal income bonds and preferred stocks on the New
I York Stock Exchange list, either of those that have
never yet paid anything but now stand next for income
after first charges are paid, or of those that have already
paid something and have a prospect of continuance, or
an increase in their rate of payment.

STOCK AND BOND TABLES
NOTES.
These tables are expressly intended to be used in connection with the information concerning investment matters published from week
to J S t a d S o S S T the conclusion of the statement for each company, therefore, is furnished a complete index of all items per­
taining to that company published In the Chronicle within the last eighteen months. Annual reports are in black-faced figures.
In case any company cannot be found in its regular alphabetical order (the railroads being arranged together first, and i^soeUaneous
companies following), reference should be made to the index on a preceding page, as many roads having been leased or consolidated, their
securities are placed under the name of the controlling company.
.
,.*»,1
The dividends appearing in the remarks are those actually paid in the oourse of the ca len ^ r year named, or such as have been declared
and will be paid in It. In many instances these dividends are paid in part out of the earnings of the preceding year, and hence it is that
they often differ from the dividends given in connection with the earnings.
The following will give explanations of each of the columns of the tables b elow :
... . .
Description -Abbreviations used are: M. for “ m ortgage;” gen. M. for “ general m ortgage;” con. M. or oonsol. M. for consolidated mort­
g a g e ;” inc.M . for “ income m ortgage;” g. for “ g o ld ;” guar, for “ guaranteed; ” cum. for “ cum ulative;” non-cum. for non-cumulat i v e ; ” oonv. for “ convertible;” pref. for “ preferred;” s. f. for “ sinking fu n d ;” 1 gr. for “ land grant; r. for registered;
.
o. for
“ cou p on ;” c.* for “ coupon but may be registered as to principal;” o. & r. for “ coupon and registered; br. for branoh; end. for
“ endorsed-;” “ red.” for redeemable, meaning subject to call before maturity (so “ red. at 100” means subject to call at par); d m
or “ drawn” for drawn by lot from time to time and paid from the sinking fund.
Date o f Bonds.—The date of issue on the face of the bonds is referred to in this column.
■tu i f
riipo

The extension and collateral trust 5 per cent bonds of 1884 (trustee
of mortgage United States Tfust Company) are issued at the rate of
$15,000 per mile for single track, $5,000 per mile additional for equip­
ment and $7,500 for second track. They are secured by the
direct lien of a first mortgage or by deposit with the trustee of an equal
amount of first mortgage 6 per cent bonds of branch lines. After July
1.1894, they are redeemable at 105 in the order of their numbers, be­
ginning with the lowest. (See abstract of the extension and collateral
trust mortgage, etc., in Chronicle, V. 47, p. 260, 261, 262.)
In April, 1891, the Chicago Kansas & Nebraska mortgage for $26,000,000, the bonds secured by which were deposited as part security
for the extension and collateral 5s, was foreclosed in the interest of the
collateral trust bondholders. The extension and collateral trust 5s are'
now a direct lien on the Chicago Kansas & Nebraska mileage, instead
of a collateral mortgage as formerly. See V. 52, p. 427, 680, 795; V.
53, p. 223.
The certificates of indebtedness were issued on account of $1,470,000 Chicago Kansas & Nebraska Railway six per cent bonds due this
company for advances made to construct road between Pond Creek
and Minco, I. T., 982l0 miles, under agreement dated May 15,1886.
From April 1,1891, to August 31, 1891 (5 months), gross earnings
(estimated) on 3,408 miles were $6,872,676, against $6,684,628 on 3,339

This was a consolidation in July, 1881, of the Columbus < Hocking
fe
Valley, Columbus & Toledo and Ohio & West Virginia. The legality o f
the company’s ¡guaranty of interest on the Toledo & Ohio Central 1s t
mortgage was disputed m September, 1891. See Chronicle of Sept. 26 .
In August, 1889, a default was threatened by President Shaw on
coupons due September 1, but committees of stock and bondholders»
were organized, the interest paid, Mr. Shaw asked to resign, and C. C«
Waite elected President and S. D. Davis Vice-President.

prior hens; the “ Hocking Coal & Railroad” joined in making theso
bonds. The Central Trust Company of New York is trustee. The gen­

The Concord and the Boston Concord & Montreal railroads were con­
solidated in September, 1889, forming this company. The Boston Con­
cord & Montreal preferred (Class I) is entitled to 6 per cent yearly; the
Boston Concord & Montreal new stock (Class II, of which there is
$540,400), and old stock (Class III, amounting to $459,600) are entitled
to not exceeding 6 per cent yearly out of any saving which may result
from the refunding of the present funded and floating debt of the Boston
Concord & Montreal. The Concord stock (Class IV) will receive such
dividends as may be declared after providing for the other dividends.
The consolidated mortgage was authorized in February, 1890, to fund
the floating debt (amounting to $1,027,700 June 30, 1890), to provide
for retirement of prior bonds when due, and for improvements. The
Manchester & Lawrence has instituted suit to recover $1,000,000
claimed to be due from the Concord Railroad.
In January, 1891, the New Hampshire Legislature authorized the
issue of $3,000,000 stock for extensions, improvements, etc.

to 4*2 per cent per annum. In June, 1891, a stock dividend o f 50
per cent was paid, increasing the stock to $750,000. It is said that
this increase in capital will only warrant a dividend of 3 per cent,
unless the lease is changed, which is probable, as the directors have
been authorized to arrange for a union with the Boston & Maine Rail­
road Company. M. Currier, President, Manchester, N. H. (V. 52, p.

Grand total, 2,875 miles.
Or g a n iz a t io n , L eases , &c .—This company was chartered in Decern
ber, 1850, and organized in March, 1851. The lands granted were upon
the condition that the company should pay to the State 7 per cent of
gross earnings yearly in lieu of taxes. The company acquired a con
trolling interest in the Chicago St. Louis & New Orleans Railroad,
and leased it from July 1, 1882, for 400 years, at 4 per cent per annum
on stock, and issued the above 4 per cent leased line stock in exchange
for a like amount of the Chic. St. L. & New Orleans stock (see below).
The stock of the Dunleith & Dubuque Bridge, $1,000,000, is owned. As
to suit to annul the lease of the Cedar Falls & Minnesota to the
Dubuque & Sioux City, see Dubuque & Sioux City. Fiscal year ends
June 30. Annual election is held in October.
Stocks and B onds .—The leased line stock was issued in exchange for
a like amount of Chicago St. Louis & New Orleans stock, all of which is
held as security therefor. A default for sixty days in thè payment of
any semi-annual dividend of 2 per cent on the leased line stock entitles
the stockholder to his pro rata share of the stock pledged.
In Oct., 1890, it was voted to issue (but only at par) $5,000,000 new
stock, making the total stock $45,000,000. (See V. 51, p. 114,493, 753

For. the Chicago St. Louis & New Orleans the lessee guarantees the
principili and interest of all the outstanding bonds prior to the 5 per
cent bonds, and by an endorsement on the latter bonds guarantees the
payment of the interest on the same until the principal is paid. The

Chicago St. Louis & New Orleans consols, are to be secured bv anv

been developed in its present extensive form sinoe 1879; the 100 per
<jent stock dividend was declared in 1880 and a few dividends after­
wards in cash, but from 1882 to 1888 nothing was paid. From Febru­
ary, 1888, to i890 stock dividends were paid to represent surplus earn­
ings. The August, 1890, dividend was paid partly in cash.

aw of Massachusetts, and by transfer the company holds a charter from
the Mexioan Government, granted December 5, 1874. The subsidy
from the Mexican Government was $15,200 per mile on most of the
ines, and in July, 1890, a contract was made by which all subsidy pay­
ments on lines then constructed were discharged by the payment of
$14,865,594 in Mexican silver. The total subsidy collections from the

beginning, including this settlement, amount to about $17,000,000 in
American money. See V. 51, p. 909.
The $7,000,000 priority bonds were paid off with proceeds of subsidy
collections, interest ceasing April 10, 1891. See V. 52, p. 390. After
the payment of the priority bonds there was left of the subsidy about
$4,400,000 to be put m trust and used whenever necessary for the pay­
ment of principal and interest of the consolidated mortgage bonds. In
July, 1891, it was reported that a portion of this money had been ap­
plied to the purchase of the 4 per cent bonds, and that over $2,000,000
of them had been bought at prices thought to average less than 70, and
deposited with the Boston Safe Deposit & Trust Company as trustee.
See V. 53, p. 21.
In 1889 a funding plan was agreed to. in accordance with which new
bonds were issued to retire old securities (see circular in full, Ch ronicle ,
V. 48, p. 191; also p. 292, 327). The consolidated mortgage 4s (trus­
tee. Boston Safe Deposit & Trust Company) cover the entire
property, all old firsts deposited, and the subsidy earned and to
be earned. (See abstract of mortgage in Chro nicle , V. 49, p. 177.)
Both series of incomes are non-cumulative and secured by one' inden­
ture to the American Loan & Trust Company. First consolidated in­
comes received 3 per cent interest July 10,1890, and 3 per cent in July,
1891. Capital stock, $46,902,600; par, $100.

From January 1 to July 31, 1891 (7 months), gross earnings in
Mexican currency were $4,025,153, against $3,660,014 in 1890: net,
$1,427,958. against $1,194,386; mileage, 1,803 miles, against 1,527 in

small branches, 5 miles; total owned, 1,064 miles; controls through
ownership of stock, Texas Mexican Railway, Corpus Christi to Laredo,
Texas, and branch, 163 miles; other lines, 5 miles; total owned and
controlled, 1,232 miles. This road was opened for traffic about Novem­
ber 1,1888.
The foreclosure of the former company (Mexioan National Railway)
took place on May 23,1887, and the present company acquired 716
miles of road. It also controls the Texas Mexican Railway, owning all
its first and second mortgage bonds, and $2,453,750 of its capital stock
out of a total issue of $2,500,000.
The subsidy from the Mexican Government was $7,000 Mexican cur­
rency per kilometer. Prior to default the former railway company
pledged $2,500,000 subsidy certificates to secure $5,000,000 of first
mortgage bonds, and at the re-organization this amount became
applicable to certain of the A and B bonds for which the $5,000,000
old first mortgage bonds were exchanged. In the re-organization also,
$7,000,000 subsidy certs, were pledged as additional security for the
$12,500,000 new first mortgage bonds, $3,000,000 of which subsidy
was then delivered to the trustees and $4,000,000 remained to be
earned. The construction of the 563 kilometers (350 miles) in the main
line earned $3,941,000 of subsidy, but of this amount $939,000 is ap­
plicable for the benefit of the five million A and B bonds, leaving $3,002,000 applicable to interest upon the first mortgage bonds when net earn­
ings are in deficit to meet the same, and afterwards for redemption of/
said bonds, subject, however, to a charge of $35,000 per year for five
years, payable to the Mexican National Construction Company. The
Sabinas coal road, 75 miles, on which a subsidy was payable, has not
been constructed. In the year 1890 $305,314 United States cur­
rency was paid out of subsidy collections to make up deficiency
in net earnings to meet interest charges on first mortgage bonds. Ne­
gotiations are pending with the Mexican Government for the conver­
sion of the remaining certificates. The amount due is about $5,000,000 in Mexican dollars. See V. 51, p. 876.

2d mortgage bondholders until it earns and pays interest on both classes
of bonds for two consecutive years, in which event the control reverts
to the stockholders. See annual report for 1890 in Chronicle, Y. 52, p.
532, and description of property in V. 48, p. 627.

$2,403,448, against $2,148,863 in 1890; net, $647,592,against $425,066,
all "Mexican currency; mileage 1,218 miles in both years.
In year 1890 gross earnings (Mexican currency) were $3,754,966; net,
$827,006, equal in American currency to $661,604, to which add sub­
sidy receipts,&c., $319,985; total net (Am. cur.) $981,589. Deduct inter­
est on bonds, $809,500; miscellaneous, $135,654; balance (Am. cur.)

O rg an ization , L eases , &c.—The Michigan Central was chartered in
1846; the whole line, Detroit to Kensington, was opened in 1852. The
lines described above as leased are all held by the Michigan Central
nominally under leases at fixed rentals, but are practically owned.
In November, 1882, a close contract was made with Canada Southern
for working its road by the Michigan Central and for the division of net
profits over all charges as follows—one-third to Canada Southern and
iwo-thirds to Michigan Central; but the Michigan Central is entitled to
an increase on this proportion as it diminishes its interest charge by
payment of bonds or otherwise, and hence it now obtains more than
two-thirds of the net income.
Stocks and B onds .—The Michigan Central stock has remained at the
same amount since 1873.
Dividends since 1870—In 1870-71,10 per cent; 1871-72,10; 1872-73,

The Jackson Lansing & Saginaw bonds were assumed by Mich. Cen­
tral, which also pays $70,000 per year on the stock of $2,000,000.
The total issue of Battle Creek & Sturgis bonds is $500,000, but of
thi£ $79,000 was subguaranteed by the Lake Shore & Michigan South­
ern, and appears in its debt, 7 miles of the B. C. & S. being operated by
that company.
Operations , F inances , &c.—The road is operated under a close con­
tract with Canada Southern, and the earnings of both roads are included
in the statistics below.

was organized April, 1870. In May, 1881, it was leased to the Mo. Pa­
cific, but on June 1,1888, default was made on interest payments and a
foreclosure suit was begun. H. C. Cross and George Eddy were appointed
receivers in October, 1888. Reorganized in 1890, without foreclosure,
in accordance with the plan of the Olcott Committee in V. 49, p. 719,
the old first mortgage being paid off at par. The receivers were dis­
charged July 1 and Mr. H. C. Cross was elected President. See V. 52,

In 1890 leased for 99 years the Kansas City & Paoiflc, now a part of
the main line to Kansas City.
The East Line & Red River RR., most of whose securities are owned
by this company was placed in the hands of W. M. Giles as receiver in

Organ ization , «fee.—This company was formed by a consolidation of
the New York Central and the Hudson River railroads October 1,1869.
The New York Central was a consolidation of several roads under a spe­
cial law of April 2,1853. The Albany & Schenectady Railroad, opened
September 12,1831, as the Mohawk < Hudson, was the first railroad
&
built in the State of New York. The West Shore Railway was leased in
December, 1885, for 475 years. The Rome Watertown & Ogdensburg
was leased in perpetuity in March, 1891, its debt being assumed and 5
per cent guaranteed oh its stock. See V. 52, p. 463. The Beech Creek
RR. (which see) is leased for 999 years and 4 per cent guaranteed on
its stock and bonds. See Y. 52, p. 570.
Sto c k and B onds .—The famous scrip dividend of 80 per cent on the
capital stock of the New York Central was made in December, 1868,
and on the consolidation with the Hudson River Road (November 1,
1869,) a further dividend of 27 per cent was distributed on the New
York Central stock and 85 per cent on the Hudson River stock. In No­
vember, 1879, 250,000 shares ($25,000,000) were sold to a syndicate of
bankers by Mr. W. H. Vanderbilt at the price of 120, and 100,000 shares
sold afterwards. Under the lease of the west Shore Railway $50,000,000
of 4 per cent bonds were guaranteed and $10,000,000 West Shore stock
taken as consideration.
In June, 1890, $15,000,000 debenture 4 per cents were authorized
for improvements. They are to be included m any new mortgage, and
have a sinking fund of $300,000 yearly—no drawings. See Y. 50, p,
834.
Dividends.—From 1869 to 1884, inclusive, 8 per cent per annum; in
1885, 3*2 per cent. From 1886 to 1889, inclusive, 4 yearly; in 1890,

O perations , F inances , «fee.—The New York Central & Hudson River
Railroad has an exceptionally rich local traffic, but the profits also de­
pend very much upon harmony among the trunk lines.

upwards, if bonds oan be bought at or below 1 0 2 ; if not, the sinking
fund lapses for that year, thus leaving $ 100,000 more for dividends.
The original issue of bonds was $20,000,000, and it has been reduced
to present amount by the sinking fund purchases. See abstract of
mortgage (Central Trust Co. of New York, trustee), V. 45, p. 541.
Dividends—On. first preferrred: In 1891, March, 3% per cent.
From January 1 to June 30, 1891 (6 months), gross earnings were
$2,928,843, against $2,733,698 in 1890; net, $564,287, against $612,027;
interest, rentals and taxes, $507,885, against $503,562; surplus over
charges, $63,557, against $113,982.
Report for year 1890 was in Ch ronicle , Y. 52, p. 760. The report
states that the engine and car equipment has received large repairs
and ten new engines have been purchased, which nearly equalizes the
depreciation to the engine equipment. The track and structures have
continued to improve. The earnings for the year were $5,820,306, the
largest in the history of the road—being an increase of $7299,77 over
1889. This was caused entirely by increased tonnage and passengers.
The average rate received per ton per mile was *508 cent, a decrease of
*028 cent. The average rate received per passenger per mile was 1:57
cents, a decrease of *19 cent.

The first lien bonds of 1878 have an accumulative sinking fund of
$ 100,000 yearly and might be called for payment, but the company
• has decided that redemption shall be by purchase only.”
•
The first consolidated funded coupon bonds are secured by lien of con­
solidated mortgage. On the second consolidated mortgage (Farmers’
Loan & Trust Company, trustee) no foreclosure can take place till six
successive coupons are in default, but all of one coupon must be paid
before any part of a subsequent coupon is paid. In 1883 the collateral
trust bonds were issued (the United States Trust Company, trustee; see
Y. 38, p. 509), redeemable at 110 on three months’ notice. The second
consolidated funded coupon bonds of 1885 were issued to fund three
past-due coupons and the coupon of June, 1886, the coupons being de­
posited as security. These bonds are redeemable at any time at 105 and
accrued ihterest. The Long Dock mortgage for $7,500,000 was issued
in 1885 ($3,000,000 being reserved to meet the old bonds), and the
bonds are payable at 110 from land sales.
The N. Y. L. E. & W. Coal & RR. Company’s bonds were described in
V. 52, p. 642. See also above under “ Organization, Leases, etc.”

Organization , E tc.—The Atlantic Mississippi A Ohio Railroad Com­
pany was a consolidation of Norfolk A Petersburg, South Side and the
Virginia A Tennessee roads; it was foreclosed February 10,1881, and
was reorganized as the Norfolk A Western.
In June, 1890, purchased the Scioto Valley A New England Railroad
(formerly Scioto Valley). When the Ohio Extension is completed this
road will afford a through line to Columbus, O. The Shenandoah Valley
RR. was purchased at foreclosure sale September 30,1890. and now
constitutes the Maryland A Washington Division. The connection with
the Louisville A Nashville was completed in June, 1891.
Stock and B onds.—Preferred stock is entitled to 6 per cent noncumulative. In May and June, 1890, $5,000,000 new preferred was is­
sued. (See V. 50, p. 735, 834.) In Deo., 1890, $2,250,000 common and
$4,500,000 preferred were issued for Shenandoah Valley securities.

^n June,*1891, stockholders subscribed to $2,500,000 new preferred
stock at $52 50 per share; in July, 20,000 shares more were sold to a
syndicate; and m September, 1891, a block of 40,000 shares was dis­
posed of to a London syndicate. It is said the proceeds of 30,000 shares
will be expended on the construction of the Ohio extension, and the
balance of the receipts will be used in retiring the floating debt, which
amounts to about $2,500,000, and in betterments and improvements.
It was also reported in September, 1891, that satisfactory progress had
been made toward inducing the large foreign holders of this stock to
agree to an exchange of the common stock for preferred at the rate of
three to one. If this plan is carried out it will leave the company with
only one class of stock. See V. 52, p. 718, 832; V. 53, p. 126,326, 370.

Stocks and B onds.—The preferred stock has a preference for 8 per
cent in each year if earned, hut is not cumulative. The common stock
then takes 8 per cent, and after that both share alike. The preferred
stock’s claim on net income is subject to expenditures for new equip­
ment. Preferred stock is received in payment for company’s lands east
of Missouri River at par, and the proceeds of the land sold go to its re­
tirement. The preferred stock has thus been reduced from $51,000,000
to the present figure. The back surplus due the preferred stock by way
of dividends (i. e., for dividends earned but not distributed, unearned
dividends not being cumulative) amounted on June 30, 1890, to $2,844,429, invested in consolidated bonds of the par value of
$3,347,000.

The terms of preference in preferred stock certificates read:
“ The preferred stock is to be and remain a first claim upon the prop­
erty of the corporation, after its indebtedness, and the holder thereof
shall be entitled to receive from the net earnings of the company 7 per
cent per annum, payable semi-annually, and to have such interest paid
in fun for each and every year before any payment of dividend upon
the common stock; and whenever the net earnings ”
*
*
*
“ shall be more than sufficient to pay both said interest of 7 per cent on
the preferred stock in full, and 7 per cent dividend upon the common
stock for the year in which said net earnings are so applied,” then the
excess shall be divided equally, &c.
In Nov., 1890, the English shareholders appointed a committee to call
in the common and preferred shares and to issue certificates therefor to
the holders and to protect generally their interests. Brown, Shipley &
Co.’s certificates have accordingly been issued for common and pre­
ferred stock. See Y. 51, p. 681, 715; Y. 53, p. 126.
Of the general mortgage of 1883 $12,142,000 is reserved to exchange
for old bonds as they mature. Cyrus C. Hines, of Indiana, and Union
Trust Company, of New York, are mortgage trustees.

liminary agreement has been prepared by bondholders opposed to the
present management. Copies may be seen at the office of Messrs. Blair

Iron Company stock, as well as the real estate of that company, and
subject to a mortgage to Philadelphia & Reading Railroad Company
dated July 1,1874, stock in other coal and iron companies amounting
to $7,448,975. An abstract of the general mortgage was in the Chroni­
cle , V. 46, p. 679, and of the preference income mortgages in V. 47, p.
141 and 142. The third preference convertible bonds were issued in ex­

d
earnings are defined in the income mortgages as the profits of the rail­
road company for each fiscal year ending November 30, derived from
all sources, after paying operating expenses, taxes and existing rentals,
guarantees and interest charges (but not fixed charges of the same sort
subsequently created); also, after deducting expenses of “ renewing,
replacing and repairing its said property and premises, including such
reasonable improvements thereof and additions thereto as shall be neoessary for the safe, proper and economical operation of the same.”
(V. 47, p. 256.)
The $8,500,000 bonds issued in 1891 for the construction of the Phil­
adelphia & Reading Terminal Railroad are the Reading’s own bonds,
and are guaranteed by the P. & R. Terminal RR. Company. They are
also secured by a mortgage upon all the property of the Terminal Com­
pany and by a traffic contract between Reading and the Terminal Co.
The trustee is the Provident Life & Trust Co. of Phil. See V. 53, p. 391.
Since the end of the fiscal year 1889-90 the company’s fixed charges
have been increased by the issue of $8,500,000 of 5 per cent Terminal
bonds.
From Dec. 1,1890, to July 31, 1891 (8 months), gross earnings of
the railroad company were $13,567,790, against $13,157,453 in
1889-90; net, $5,925,227, against $5,428,107; surplus over charges

of the acts of Congress of July 1,1862, and July 2, \864. The Union
Pacific Railroad was chartered by Act of Congress of July 1,1862,
which gave the oompany a land grant of 12,800 acres per mile, esti­
mated at a total of 12,083,227 acres, and a subsidy in United States
bonds of $27,236,512 on 1,033 miles of road.
The Kansas Pacific was organized as “ Leavenworth Pa wnee & West­
ern” in 1861 ; then changed to “ Union Pacific, Eastern Division,” June
6,1863, and to “ Kansas Pacific” on March 3,1869. The Pacific Rail­
road acts of 1862 and 1864 applied to this road, and gave it a subsidy of
$6,303,000 and a land grant of about 6,OOO,OO0 acres.
In 1886 a lease of the Oregon Railway & Navigation RR. to the Ore­
gon Short Line, guaranteed by Union Pacific, was negotiated (see V. 48r
p. 261.)

g
In November, 1890, there was a change in the management of the
Union Pacific, Mr. Sidney Dillon replacing Mr. Adams in the Presi­
dency and. Messrs. Jay Gould, Russell Sage, H. B. Hyde and A. E. Orr
becoming directors. See V. 51, p. 748.
As to the debt of the Pacific railroads to the United States Govern­
ment, a decision of the United States Supreme Court settled the point
that the payment of interest on the loans was not obligatory on the
companies till the principal of the bonds became due. Afterwards
Congress passed the Thurman Act, May 7,1878, which, for the Union
Pacific, provided that 25 per cent of the net earnings, after deducting
interest on the first mortgage bonds and construction and equipment
expenditures should be paid annually to the Government as follows:
First—Applied directly to interest account, one-half of Government
earnings and 5 per cent of net earnings, after deducting interest on
first mortgage bonds; Second—To be placed in the sinking fund—the
other hair of the Government earnings and so much of $850,000 as
may be necessary to make all the payments by the company equal 25
per cent of its net earnings. On January 1,1891, tne sinking fund, in­
vested in RR. and U. S. bonds, (par value) was $9,368,400, and the pre­
mium paid on bonds and cash uninvested was $1,737,092 ; total, $11,105,492. The debt to the United States at that date was thus stated :
Principal, $27,236,512 ; interest accrued and not paid, $817,095 ; inter­
est paid by United States, $36,397,185 ; repaid by Union Pacific, $12,999,510; balance of interest paid by United States, $23,397,675.
For Omaha bridge decision rendered in July, 1891, see V. 53, p. 157.
Sto c k and B onds .—The capital stock issued and outstanding is $60,868,500, having been increased about $10,000,000 since the consolida­
tion in 1880.
Dividends since 1879—In 1880, 6 per cent; in 1881, 6% ; in 1882, 7;
in 1883, 7 ; in 1884, 3*2; none since.

There are $18,000 Leavenworth branch 7 per cent bonds due January,

The Union Pacific collateral trust 6s are limited to 80 per cent of thè
following bonds : Omaha & Republican Valley RR,, $935,000 ; Colorado
Central RR. bonds, $1,895,000 ; Utah Northern RR., $2,149,000 ; total,
$4,979,000. The collateral trust 5s of 1883 are secured by the following
bonds: Colorado Central RR., $1,268,000; Utah & Northern RR., $2,027,000; Omaha & Republican Valley Railroad, $622,000; Omaha <
fe
Republican Valley Railway, $1,961,000; Utah Southern RR. extension,
$85,000; total, $5,963,000.
The collateral trust bonds of 1889 on Denver Leadville & Gunnison
Railroad (formerly Denver South Park & Pacific) are secured by mort­
gage bonds on that narrow-gauge road at $11,000 per mile, $22,200 per
mile being authorized for extensions. There is a sinking fund, but
bonds cannot be called. Company’s stock is owned by Union Pacific.
The Union Pacific guarantees either as to principal and interest, or as
to interest only, certain securities of the following^ companies, full in­
formation concerning which will be found under their respective heads r
Oregon Short Line & Utah Northern; Oregon Railway & Navigation
(through guaranty of lease) ; St. Joseph & Grand Island ; Union Pacific
Denver & Gulf, and Union Pacific Lincoln & Colorado.
The outstanding bonds of Kansas Pacific above are given less the
amounts of each class held by the trustees of the consolidated mortgage.
The consolidated mortgage trustees are Jay Gould and Russell Sage,
and they held intrust on January 1, 1891, the following bonds of the
Kansas Pacific, making $6,786,850 in all, viz.: Leavenworth Branch,
$582,000; income (unsubordinated) bonds, $241,200; income (subordi­
nated) bonds, $3,992,650 ; Cheyenne Branch, Denver Pacific bonds, $1,971,000. They also held $1,980,500 of the stocks and $3,160,000 o f
bonds of companies controlled by the Union Pacific.
The Kansas Pacific consolidated mortgage covers the road from Kan­
sas City to Denver, and branch, 673 miles, subject to the divisional
bonds (to retire which sufficient bonds are held) and the United States
In April, 1891, a new loan for $20,000,000 of 5 per cent bonds was
authorized, to be called the Kansas Division and Collateral Mortgage.
There being no market for bonds and the floating debt being pressing,
a proposition was made to the creditors to fund the floating debt into
three-year 6 per cent debt certificates, to be taken at 92i2. The author­
ized amount of these certificates is $24,000,000, but details of plan are
not yet matured. A list of the Collateral to be deposit 3d with Messrs.
Drexel, Morgan & Co. to secure the certificates has been reported as fol­
lows (see complete list in V. 53, p. 290). A statement of the floating
debt as of Dee. 31,1890, is given below.

In August, 1891, it was reported that the directors had engaged to
'•distribute regularly the surplus net earnings—after payment or fixed
charges—among the B debenture bondholders, the basis of calculating
the division of profits to be the officially published net profits as indi­
cated in each monthly return. The demand for betterments, it is said, is
to be satisfied by appropriations either from working expenses or from
•capital account. (V. 53, p. 224.)
