I think much uncertainty abqut the future conduct and plans of the

Faciflo Is a company chartered by Congress for a yery speciflo purpose,
and llnolted by very speciflo conditions. True, its powers have already
been exceeded in many ways, but conflicting interests may induce such
action before Congress as may compel the law offloers of the Goyernment, as well as the Government Directors of the Union Paciflc Railroad,
to more fully perform their duties, and see whether the laws are being
obeyed or disregarded.
The act approved July Ist, 1862, and July 2d, 1864, outlined the
powers of the company, and the act approved March 3d, 1873, still
further circumscribed its real authority. I think there is no danger that
the Hannibal A St. Joseph will be any more closely aUied to Union

any alliance that will divert trafflo or earnings from the company's

The Union Paoiflo cannot como east of the Missouri River for purItose of extending or controlling an indopondent line to Chloago without
assent of Congress, for the charter is limited between Missouri River

NEW YORK, FllIUAV, SEPT. 29. lSSa-3 P. M.
The Money Market and Financial Situation.— The stringency ia rates tor money lias attracted more than the usual
attention this week on account of the direct bearing it had
upon the stock market, and also upon mercantile operations in
the greater difBculty experienced in negotiating commercial
paper. It has often happened in the past few years that call
loans to stock borrowers have been decidedly close and ruling
for some days at high rates wlien the market for really prime
commercial paper was scarcely affected, but at the present time
circumstances are somewhat different, and commercial paper
sympathizes more closely with the call loan market, or with
find a reason
the rate for time loans on stock collaterals.
for tlxis in the fact that banks have been lending more and
more to borrowers on stock and bond collaterals, and now
under the present l.aw tliey are at liberty to accept the highest
rates going on call loans in sums of $5,000 and upward,
so that there is little inducement for them to discount notes
of two to four months, if they can keep their funds in liand
and use them more profitably by lending subject to call. Then
the failure of Mr. Alonzo Follett, with its attendant complications, created an unpleasant feeling for the moment, which
had a certain influenee on tlie paper market. At such a period
it is obvious that the class of paper well known as strictly prime
is less disturbed than anything of lower grade; and so this
week, wliile really choice first-class paper has been quoted at
7 per cent, other grades and single names have been up to 8,
9 and 10 per cent, and this has perhaps given an impression
of greater difficulty among merchants in getting accommoda-
We
than really existed.
In the stock market, aside from the reports about the bullish
or bearish tendencies of leading operators, the main talk has
been in regard to the money market, and what the Government would probably do to keep money easy. The Secretary's
offer to pay called bonds without rebate of interest does not
furnish speedy relief; and recently it has been quite generally
supposed that some arrangement would be made for depositing Government receipts with some of the national banks
designated as depositories, with government bonds taken as
security. This, if done in a rational way, would place the
Government more nearly in its true and proper attitude
towards the money market, where it would neither act as a
great absorbent of funds that ought to be in circulation, nor,
on the other liand, come down at intervals and throw out its
five, ten or twenty millioHS of money at times when it was
least expected and least needed.
In the call loan market rates have been very irregular, and
jumped about from day to day and from hour to hour, according to the demand at the moment. The lowest rate fairly
quotable on stock collaterals li:is been 7 per cent, and from
that the range went as high as 20 per cent, on Tuesday, and in
some cases the old method has been adopted of lending at 6
per cent plus a commission, which went as high as J^ per cent
a day. The past few days, however, tlie rvijing rate to stockbrokers has been 7@8 per cent, and on government bond
collateral 5@6 per cent.
Strictly prime commercial paper is
quoted at 7 per cent, while paper not quite so good is quoted
at 7>^@9 per cent.

State and Railroad Bonds.— The Tennessee Funding Board
leaves New York to-day and discontinues for the present their
operations in this city, after funding about .^10,000,000 of
old bonds into the new compromise issue. If the State of
Tennessee should elect a Governor and Legislature in November favorable to the present law, the funding would probably
be much more rapid. The compromise bonds sold at OOJ^ ;
Arkansas bonds, L. R. P. B. & N. O., sold at 29.
Railroad bonds have generally held their own pretty well
against the depression in the stock market, and the conclusion
is naturally drawn that the bonds are strongly held and less
carried on speculation than formerly.
In view of the rapid construction of new railroads and the
temporary closeness of the money market, there is some interest attaching to the prices of new railroad bonds, and in
some of these there is an opportunity to make profitable investments, if the success of the enterprises is considered well

Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.— The stock market
has been feverish and irregular throughout, closing to-day
with many stocks at or near the lowest figures made this
week. The main cause for this sensitiveness is to be found in
money market, which is certainly working
very closely from natural causes, althougli the scarcity of
money may be aggravated at times by the manipulation of
parties wishing to depress stocks. At all events, it is known
IP 80.
that the demand for money is large, and at the opening of
Sept. 25.
October, when cotton and grain should both begin to move
$310,204,030 freely, it is hardly expected that any return of funds should

and South; and hence the Sec18,882,500 soon take place from the West
291, 80^,900 retary of the Treasury is looked to for relief by placing the
13,197,200 Government receipts in banks secured by the deposit of gov-
Exchange. Fbreign exchange is weaker in consequence of
the large supply of bankers' bills and also the increase in
commercial exchange from cotton shipments. Messrs. Seligman have recently negotiated about $5,000,000 on account of
payments due for Panama Raih-oad stock, and there have
possibly been otiier transactions against loans abroad or
against the sale of stocks in London. To-day the actual rates
for prime bankers' 60 days sterling were 4 81@4 SIJ^ and for
demand 4 85J^@4 86'^, with cable transfers 4 86i^@4 87'^.
For Continental bills tlie actual rates are as follows: Francs

[Vol.
the condition of the
ernment bonds.
It usually happens that when there
is any tendency to weakness in the stock market, this inclination is increased and hurried on by a break in one or more of the weaker specialties,
and so it has been this week. The failure to declare any dividend on Michigan Central, or anything immediately payable
on Oregon Trans-Continental, knocked off tho.se stocks, and
Nashville yesterday and
then a sharp decline in Louisville
to-day had rather a depressing effect, while the final dealings
were weakened by the decline in Delaware Lackawanna
Western to I4II4. The directors of this company met to-day
and declared the quarterly dividend of 2 per cent, payable
October 21. They also voted to lease tlie new road to
Buffalo, known as the New York Lackawanna and Western,
paying 5 per cent on the |10,000,000 stock of the company,
and guaranteeing the interest on the $13,000,000 bonds. As
tlie road is not yet open for business, and must wait some time
for net earnings, it is e ^ident that the guarantee of 4 per cent
W.,
on the stock may prove to be unprofitalile for the D. L.
tliougli highly profitable to the holders of the guaranteed stock.
There has been less talk of the bearish influence of Sir.
Gould, and some allege that he lias been a purchaser in the recent decline.

ANNUAL REPORTS.
in 1881-2 as shown in the table below, the report says
the
real deficit in freight earnings is only $200,3*4, the ditf-rence
$55,184, being amount of rentals paid by the Memphis & Charl
leston and Alabama
Gr.-at Southern railroads, which was
heretofore included in the freight receipts, but since the ar-
rangement for rental for use of track only, the revenue derived
from this source has been credited to rents and privileges,
which account shows a corresponding increaiie. The decrease
in gross revenue from freight was the result of the drouth,
and
consequent short crops, which prevailed all over the conntrv
'
in 1881.
The following statistics have been prepared
Nashville Chattanooga & St. Louis.
(For the year ending June 30. 1882.)
The anaaal report is just now issued, and extracts from that
made at the annual racetiDg, before the printed copies
were ready, will be found in last week's Chuojjicle, on page
348. There was an excess of expenditures over receipts from
all sources, including the balance of June 30, 1881, amounting
to $320,507, and an increase in the item of "bills payable"
amounting to $412,607 ; the President remarks that this
increase in floating debt Is accounted for by the large amount
expended for betterments and extensions, and says that it can
all be liquidated by the sale of the bonds authorized to be
issued upon the completion of the McMinnville and Centreville
extensions and the disposition of the $144,000 Duck River bonds
held by the company. The mortgage debt as per last report
was $8,147,000, since which time there has been issued, main
stem first mortgage 7 per cent bonds, $992,000 ; Duck River
Valley second mortgage endorsed 6 per cent bonds, :^6,000
total debt, $9,145,000. There has been redeemed— Nashville &
Chattanooga Railroad endorsed 6 per cent bonds, $494,000; Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad unendorsed 6 per cent bonds,
$2,000— $496,000 leaving the mortgage indebtedness on June
30, 1882, $8,649,000.
The $992,000 first mortgage 7 per cent
bonds were issued in lieu of |500,000 due the United States,
which were redeemed on June 1, 1881, and the $494,000 endorsed 6 per cent bonds redeemed July 1, 1881.
During the year, 18 miles of 58-lb steel rails were laid upon
the Chattanooga Division, and 11 76 miles apon the Northwestern, a total of 29 -7(5 miles.
The President says " The expenditures upon the track were

" The extension of the Duck River Valley Railroad froa Petersburg to Fayetteville, 13 miles, was completed in April last,
and trains have been running since June 1. This eitension was
made in accordance with the lease of the Duck River Railroad,
at a cost to your company of 115,815 70. In addition to this
sum there is due the N. C. & St. L. railway $15,766 96 for moneys

GENERAL INVESTMENT NEWS.
Koston & New York Air-Line.—The suit of William J.
Hutchinson against the Boston & New York Air-Line and the
New York New Haven & Hartford railroad companies, to
restrain the execution of the lease of the former road to the
latter, was heard before Judge Wallace, in the United States
Circuit Court, at Syracuse. The brief of S. E. Baldwin, counsel for the Air-Line Company, urged that the plaintiff, who
holds 1,300 shares of common stock, had no other right than to
vote against the lea.se, which was made according to law and
the charter of the company. The directors of the New Haven
Company, Mr. Baldwin says, unite in the opinion that the rental under the lease is higher than the earning capacity of the
Air-Line road. No fraud or breach of trust on the part of the
the
Air- Line road's directors is charged. Only one director
New Haven Company owns any Air-Line stock, and he has one
share of common. The Court, Mr. Baldwin says, is asked by
the plaintiff to give a minority of the stockholders a powerwhich the Legislature has expressly denied, by making a three-
d
fourths vote conclusive as to lease.
Alphonse Dup.at. Auditor of the Air Line, deposes that m.

declares that the necessary repairs of the road will absorb for
several years to come all its revenues under the pool agreement.
He shows that at the same rate of increase in joint earnings as
ruled during the last seven years, with no extraordinary
expenses and with no change in its percentage in the pool, the
Air Line road would, at the end of the term of the nroposed
lease, have accumulated over $5,000,000 arrearages in dividends
on the preferred, ahead of the common stock. With the same
conditions it would take, under the present cooling scheme, 650
years before any dividend could be paid on the Air Line
common stock. Jud^e Wallace, after hearing the arguments,
dissolved the injunction.
Brookirn City Bonds.—Proposals were opened by Mayor
Low and Comptroller Semler for $400,000 4 per cent registered
sewerage fund bonds and $100,000 4 per cent registered tax

" The Canadian Pacific Railway, or the C. P. R. Syndicate, as
it is usually termed, deserves more than a mere passing notice.
Formed with the intention of constructing a lice of railway
-from Lower Canada to the Pacific Ocean, through British
possessions, its gigantic undertaking seems already to be in
a fair way of being speedily accomplished. Starting from
Montreal it utilizes as far as Ottawa (119 miles) the western
division of the Quebec
Montreal Ottawa & Occidental
Kailway, which it has acquired thence it skirts the Ottawa
River as far as a place called Mattawa, a further distance of
299 miles. Mattawa is the present terminus of the constructed
portion of the eastern half of the main line. This main line,
from Montreal to Mattawa (318 miles), a branch from the
Grand Trunk line at Brockville to a point near Ottawa (46
miles), and two other short branches, constitute the whole of
the eastern division of the Canadian Pacific Railway as at present constructed, and all that it owns in Ontario. The western
division commences at Fort William, on Thunder Bay, and
runs in a northwesterly direction past the Lake of the Woods to
Winnipeg (435 miles), about sixty mi!es east of which it enters
the Province of Manitoba. From Winnipeg it runs in a
westerly direction through Portage-la-Prairie and Brandon to
Flat Creek, a distance of 178 miles, but it is graded and ready
for ballasting for a much further di.-.tanee. By the end of the
present year it is confidently expected that the line will be ready
for traffic, if not actually operated, for a distance of 663 mile's

There has been great depression in our cotton market during
the past week, owing to a marked increase in receipts at the
ports, good weather for maturing and gathering the crop and
unfavorable foreign advices.
Prices of cotton for future
delivery gave way during Saturday, Monday and Tuesday,
with hardly an effort to sustain them.
On Wednesday a
demand to cover contracts caused a momentary reaction
toward higher figures, but the final close was at a further
decline.
Notwithstanding the very small stocks in the market
September contracts have been the most depressed, speculation in the distant months being rather more active.
Yesterday there was an early decline, followed by an advance, with a
brisk business, extending largely into the distant months.
To-day there was a fresh decline of 13@18 points, the latter for
September, but in the last quarter- hour September recovered
15 points. Cotton on the spot has been in moderate demand
for home consumption, but very little has been taken for
export.
Quotations were reduced l-16c. on Monday, i^c. on
Tuesday and %o. on Wedneday, with new cotton offered
from the wharves at prices below the current figures. The
new cotton now offered is of better quality, less complaint
being heard of green and gin-cut samples, and of damp bales.
Yesterday old cotton was steady, but quotations were based
on new crop, and reduced 3-1 6c.
To-day there was a further
decline of i^c, middling uplands closing at 11 ll-16c.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 786,500
bales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
5,726 bales, including 1,197 for export, 4,529 for consumption,

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
Friday, P. M., September 29, 1882.
The past week has witnessed a less active demand for dry
goods than was expected by commission merchants and importers, and the jobbing trade was checked to some extent by the
unfavorable condition of the weather. The stringency of the
money market Las also tended to restrict operations on the pait
and their purchases of fall and winter
goods were consequently governed by actual requirementsj but
some fair orders for spring woolens, white goods, dress fabrics,
&c., were placed for future delivery. The tone of the market
has lost some of its late buoyancy, but prices are steadily maintained on the most desirable fabrics. The failure of a large
Boston jobbing house (Wellington Bros. & Co.) caused great
surprise in the trade, as tfie firm had been in very good credits,
and had even discounted their payments within a few weeks.
The exact cause of this failure has not transpired, but the liabilities of the firm are about $696,000, against nominal assets,
of about $625,000.
Domestic Cotton Goods. The exports of domestics for th*
week were 2,076 packages, including 608 to Great Britain, 58S
to China, 298 to U. S. of Colombia, 136 to Hayti, 136 to Venezu-

72 to Mexico, 56 to Brazil, &c. Plain and colored cottons
ruled quiet in first hands, and the jobbing trade was only moderately active. Prices have not materially changed, and really
desirable goods are generally steady; but low-grade fabrics ar»
a trifle easier in some cases, and the tone of the market is barely
ela,
so firm as a short time ago. Print cloths were in moderate demand, and while 56x603 are steadily held because of the light
supply, there has been a slight decline in the price of 64x64a,
which are now quoted at 3%c. less 1 par cent, with plenty of
Prints were in moderate demand only
and ginghams ruled quiet; but an increased business was done,
in cotton dress goods at lower prices.
Domestic Woolen Goods. There was a steady call for small
reassortments of heavy eassimeres and suitings by the clothing
trade, and the same class of buyers continued to place fair orders for light-weight eassimeres, suitings and worsted coatings
overcoatings were lightly dealt in, and
for future delivery
there was a lessened demand for cloakings. For light-weight
satinets there was a moderate inquiry, but Kentucky jeans
sellers at these figures.
