SOME CilUSES OP THE LOW RATES OP INTEREST." Why," it is often asked, " are the rates of interest

SO low ?" Some light is thrown on this question, as well

as upon the general condition and prospects of the

money market, by Mr. IJagehot's elaborate article in the

last number of the Fortnightly Review. The general

course of the financial development of the last quarter

of a century is there sketched out, and the amazing

rapidity appreciated with which in modern commercial

countries the growth of banking facilities has aug-

mented the productive power of the world. At somefuture time, the author's plan, it is hoped, will admit of

a practical application to the movements of the moneymarket of the principles he so instructively deduces

from the banking progress of the last half century.

Mr. Bagehot, like nearly all the best authorities on tlie

subject, follows Adam Smith's division of capital into

fixed and circulating. The former, however, Mr. Bage-

hot prefers to call " co-eperatire capital," and the latter

"remunerative capital." Wo do not think very much is

gained by this innovation in the accepted tertainology

of political economy, except, indeed, that the new-

words give prominence to some important aspects of thetwo kinds of capital, that are useful, if not novel. Onepractical deduction from the paper of Mr. Bagehotseems to be that in our day the reservoir of floating

capital from which tlie loan market is supplied, is im-

mense beyond all former precedent ; and that ita

movements, like those of the ocean, are notto be thoroughly investigated by the simple

process of studying and observing them in onecountry or under one set of local conditions. If a manwould understand the money market thoroughly, his

observations must be patiently conducted on a great

scale, as well as on a small scale. He must comprehendinternational finance, as well as that of the United States

or England or Germany or France. That this is a correct

view of the subject, few well-informed persons in this

country will doubt. It has often been demonstrated in

our columns that the present ease and plethora of ourown money market is .ilmost sure to be mi^^understood

by those who regard it as a phenomenon affecting one

country alone, and forget that the whole of Christendom

is suffering from a similar type of economic and financial

derangement. Another deduction from Mr. Bagehot's

suggestive paper is that one cause of the low rates of

money which at present prevail throughout tlie commercial

world, is a result of that excessive conversion of floating

capital into fixed capital, to which the panics of the last

three or four years were ascribed. As those financial con-

vulsions were brought on by too much conversion of float-

ing capital into fixed forms, so the jiresent plethora of the

loan market is perhaps duo to the opposite process of

converting an excessive amount of fixed capital into

floating capital. However this may be, it is certain that

all great commercial panics do rcsnlt in such a conver-

sion; and every mercantile man is familiar with the fact

that an enormous amount of capital is lost and destroyed

to debtors and creditors in the forced s.ales and liquida-

tions consequent on failures and p.anics. It is equally cer-

tain that after any commercial revulsion there is usually

a long period »f easy money. For example, we are oftea

reminded that subsequent to the panic of 1857 and to

the Overend revulsion of 1860, money lent for several

successive months at 2 per cent. Without pursuing this

discussion any further, we may safely conclude that as

commercial panics are caused by one form of excessive

conversion of capital, that of floating into fixed, so the

opposite form of excess brings on tiiat plethora of float-

55i THK (CHRONICLE. [June 10, 1576.

ing capital which so often results irom panics and is fre-

quently so slow to pass away.

When, therefore, we attempt to account for the low

rates of interest which capital is now able to earn, it is

necessary for us to look on all sides of the question. As

the same complaint of low interest is heard in other

countries besides our own, it is useful for our purpose to

trace out those great general causes which are so exten-

sive in their influence and .ire producing such widely-

extended and similar results in the money markets at

the present time. The operation of these general causes

may be summed up in a few words. First, there is

everywhere, as here, an accumulation of loanable capital

seeking a certain class of employment, such as call

loans and short investments. Secondly, the demand for

money on such invesfments is below the supply, so that

the rates favor the borrowers. Thirdly, the usual out-

lets of capital are many of them closed or are rejected

and refused, either from a want of confidence on the part

of lenders or of enterprise on the part of borrowers.

Fourthly, there does not appear to be any immediate

prospect of a general recovery of confidence. So soon

as any such symptoms are distinctly visible, they are

always seized upon and discounted beforehand.

So far, however, we have considered only a part of

the question. Besides these general causes of monetary

ease, which are at work here as elsewhere, there are a

multitude of special circumstances which originate in

our own peculiar circumstanees. The first and most

conspicuous of these is our expected approach to specie

payments. The transition of the financial system to a

specie basis spreads so much of uncertainty over the

immediate future that many departments of business

are of necessity checked and curtailed. Now, as Mr.

Bagehot shows, all such curtailments are accompanied

by a plethora of idle capital. This is &n important

principle; for it helps us to explain several features of

our money market which have misled a multitude of

writers on finance. It is obvious to any reflecting person

that, if the reservoir of loanable capital is not drained by

its usual outlets, its level will rise, and the accumulation

of idle capital will tend to produce all its usual symp-

toms in the money market. In this point of view our

financial system resembles a large machine organ-

ized to do an immense aggregate of work,

and compelled temporarily to restrict itself to

a smaller aggregate. Instead, therefore, of being

surprised that the depression of business has caused so

much loss to the country, we ought rather to be gratified

that it has produced so little. As has been shown, our

monetarj and commercial activity have not suffered to

an extent which compares very unfavorably with that of

which other nations are at this time complaining. Aswe have in this country so many special causes of finan-

cial perturbation, this fact is encouraging; it leads us to

augur favorably for the future. Whether, as some per-

SOHH tell us, it is the immense material resources of the

United States that hare given us an advantage over for-

eign nations, or whether a part of the benefit has been

procured in other ways', we have not space to inquire at

present. "We content ourselves with simply pointing to

the fact that the money market is as tranquil here,and

its rates as easy, as in the older countries of Europe; and

that this ease, whatever may be its inconveniences, offers

a favorable forecast for the future, so far as it indicates

the absence of expected financial perturbation. Withrespect to the practical question, as to the course of the

money market in the early future, we can only say that

our bankers are looking for a continuance of the present

easy rates, at least until the activity of the fall business

sets in.

82,649,842 ; during the same time there wpre issued of

new notes $476,560 ; so that the net decrease of bank-

notes outstanding during May was $2,173,282, against a.

net dec ease during the previous two months of $3,979,-

ISl. Of greenbacks deposited by the banks to retire

their notes, the balance unused, and therefore on hand,

was, May 1, $28,083,291 ; and on June 1, 128,081,472,

or a decrease for the month of $1,819. On May 1, the

total greenbacks outstanding were $370,527,876, .and on

June 1, $370,123,668, or a net decrease of $404,208.

The full figures, therefore, showing the changes in the

active circulation during the month of May, would

be as follows :

for May. If, however, we go back to January, 1875,

we see the total extent of the movement. At that time

the greenbacks outstanding were $382,000,000 ; at present

they art>, as stated above, $370,123,668, or a decrease of

$11,876,332, that being the amount retired under the act

Some discussion has arisen the past month among a

portion of the daily press, (growing out of our publication

of May 6) as to the status of the *28,081,472 of groen-

backs on deposit witli the Treasurer to retire bank notes.

We anticipated th.at a difference of opinion might be

developed with regard to that item, and so stated in ourformer article. ]?ut the result of all that has been said

is siniplv, as we then remarked, that those greenbacksare deposited by the banks, and are held by the Treasurerfor the sole purpose of redeeming their notes; and they

can never be in circulation until the bank notes whichthey now represent are out of circulation. Hence, the

total given above, of 857,251,814, represents the actu.il

decrc-ise in circulation since January, 1875. The actual

greenback and bank-note circulation outstandins in

J-inuarv, 1875, and at the present time, may, there''ore,

he stated as follows:

RAILROAD PROGRESS.

We are able now to give the results of 1875 in railroad

building. It seems that the amount constructed in theUnited States during the year was 2,035 miles, against

1,940 miles in 1874 and 3,948 miles in 1873. The prog-

,ress since ISCO may best be seen from the following

The check in construction since the panic was well

known. But these figures bring the whole subject

forcibly to mind. One can easily understand the effect

upon all industrial interests of this sudden pause in rail-

road progress. In 1871 there were 7,670 miles built, in

1872 6,167, and now for two years only about 2,000

miles a year. The unnatural growth of 1872 and of

previous years necessarily stimulated every industry

either directly or remotely connected with it, while the

aame conditions which forced railroad progress and its

connecting interests also forced every other trade.

This was a diseased condition of business, and when the

fever burned itself out, the patient of necessity wasdreadfully prostrated.

It is a little surprising, but a fact which we have fre-

quently referred to, that the railroad mania extended to

Europe during the rery same period in which it pre-

vailed so decidedly here. We give the following twotables for the purpose, among other things, of illustra-

ting this fact. The first is an approximate statement

We here see that during the five years from 1870

Europe added 24,000 miles to its railroad network, and

during the ten ye.irs from 1865 it added 42,000 miles,

while during the previous ten years it only added 25,000

miles. Not very long since we gave in our columns the

history of the German railroad expansion, and all are

familiar with its growth in Russia. Without, however,

going into particulars, the above figures, taken in con-

nection with the re-action in Europe, which set in about

the time of our panic, and the prostration which has

ruled there since, go very far towards explaining one

another.

And here may we not make a suggestion which some

of our Western and Southern friends will see is in point.

The railroad bubble in Europe burst only shortly previous

to our own panic. There was no contraction of the cur-

rency that did it. The inducing cause of the mania in Ger-

many which led to so great increase in railroad mileage

—an increase of 50 per cent during the five years in

Prussia alone—was the immense sums of money which

came from France. Under this unnatural stimulus they

overdid the railroad business, producing them beyond the

power of the country to make them pay—that is beyond

the present wants of the country. The end to the spec-

ulation did not come because the currency was contracted

or because there was not enough currency, but simply

for the reason that the disease had run its course.

This we all must admit, for the facts are beyond dispute.

But when we look at our own case, currency doctors

claim that contraction brought on the panic, and that

more greenbacks will revive business, which in this

Page 8: June 10, 1876, Vol. 22, No. 572 - FRASER · E. y) AMI xmm HUNT'SMERCHANTS'MAGAZINE, REPRESENTINGTHECOMMERCIALANDINDUSTRIALINTERESTSOFTHEUVITEDSTATES VOL.22. NEWYORK,JUNE10.187a NO.572

656 THE CHRONICLE [June 10, 1876.

iustance means, will revive railroad .buildinp:. It col-

lapsed Bimply because it was already overdone; a forced

growth of six or seven thousand miles of railroad a year

has placed us far in advance of the necessities of the

country, or, in other words, of its capacity to make rail-

roads pay. Construction, therefore, can revive only when

the development of the nation has again caught up with

this overgrowth. That time will soon come, if we simply

allow nature to work out its own cure. We are young,

energetic, boundless in resources—both the West and

the South with their undeveloped wealth most tempting

to capitalists. There is, however, one condition prece-

dent, and only one, to our receiving that .capital freely,

and that is indicated in the words safety, security, cer-

tainty. Have not three years of bitter experience

taught us at least this—that an irredeemable currency

furnishes a state of things the very opposite of that

described by the words mentioned ?

We can best mark the rapidity of railroad extension

in this country by the fact that in 18C8 we had in the

United States one mile of road to every 905 persons,

while now we have a mile of road to every 591 persons.

In Great Britain there is one mile of road to 1,916 per-

sons, and in France a mile of road to 2,940 persons. Thefollowing exhibits the number of persons to each mile of

RAILROAD EARSiJiGS I.V MAY, AND FROM JAV. 1 TO MAY SI.

It is gratifying to be able to report a continued improvementin railroad earnings as compared with 1875. On 22 roads

embraced in the table below, the increase in May was $482,300

as compared with the same month in 1875, and this relatively

favorable aspect has some influence in sustaining the prices of

railroad stocks, in the face of the recent redactions in freights

and fares. Except for tlie present hostility among the officers of

trunk lines, the railroad situation -would be tolerably favorable,

and with the experience of the past five months of this year, there

would be much onfidence in a steady progress towards moieremunerative business. Notwithstanding the general depression

in business and the low prices, it is apparent that the '•olume ol

some important articles of produce moved hag been considerably

in excess of last year, and the increase in railroad earnings Is

partly due to this fact. The following figures, taken from ourtables sUowingr the movement of breadstuffs, exhibit the ship-

ments of flour and jjrain from the porta of Chicago, MilwaukeeToledo, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louis, Peoria and Duluth, for the

five months, Jan. 1 to May 27, for four years

As to cotton, the whole moyement overland to the close of

April, from Sept. 1, 1875, the beginning of the crop year, wasabout 130,000 bales more than lor the whole year 187-4-5, show-

ing here also a considerable increase in quantity transported byrail.

The most important questions now bearing upon the subject of

railroad earnings are these : 1. How long will the present

competition amonjf the trunk lines probably continue ? 2, Whateffect will the Centennial traffic probably have in increasing

passenger earnings ? 3. Is the larger movement of produce aa

compared with 1875, likely to continue throughout the remaining

months of this year ? In answer to these questions it may be said

that the duration of the railroad warontlirough rates is altogether

The receipts from Centennialpassenger traffic can hardly fail to be largo on those roads lyingon the direct route to Philadelphia, anl chiefly to thePennsylraniaRailroad and its branches, fhe daily attendance at the Centennialwill possibly average 'over 30,000 paying visitors during thebalance of the time to November 10, and so large a number otpersons, many of them from considerable distances, must contributeno insignificant amount to the railroad receipts. As to the move-ment of cotton, breadstuffs and 'merchandi.se, we can hardlv seeany good reason to anticipate that the quantities moved iii thelast half of 1876 will be materially larger than in the same timelast year.

The St. Paul and Northwest roads are reaping the benefit oftheir 'increased tariffs on the large grain movement called forthby the extremely low rates from Chicago eastward.

The annual report of the IJock Island road to March 31, 1870,shows gross earnings for the year, ot $7,«r,,),10l

Page 10: June 10, 1876, Vol. 22, No. 572 - FRASER · E. y) AMI xmm HUNT'SMERCHANTS'MAGAZINE, REPRESENTINGTHECOMMERCIALANDINDUSTRIALINTERESTSOFTHEUVITEDSTATES VOL.22. NEWYORK,JUNE10.187a NO.572

558 THE CHRONICLE [June 10, 1S76,

three months bi.ls tbe open market rate is oaly 1|@1} per cent'

and very choice paper is taken at even a lower quotation. The

eomplaiuts amongst the bill brokers reppecting the paucity of

bills are very great, and it is to be feared that any improvement in

tbe supply is, for some lime to come, q'lite out of the question

Beyond tbe usual consumptive busiuees in progress, there is very

little passing in commercial circles. The Iiome demand for goods

la conaiderej to be fairly active, but foreigu buyers i-emaiu com-

parativc.'y few, though there is every re*?oa to beiieve that the

purchases tUey are making are with a vi-'w to meet a bona fide

demand. In the present uucertaia condition of attairs, merchants

are, obviously, unwilling to speculate much, if at all, in manu-

factured (;oods. Mouey is certainly cheap enough to encourage

aud foster speculation ; but the distrust which has fsr so long

prevailed, in consf-queuce of the serious results ol the traiing of

former years, is very slow in being eradicated ; and this conserva-

tive spirit is increased, owing to the ominous position of the Etst-

ern question. Merchants trading with Levaotiue countries are

naturally extremely cautious., and it is very difficult just now to

ascertain what a day may bring forth. It would seem that the in.

tegrity of Turkey is maintained almost by the jealousies of the

neighboring countries, so that their jealousies are for a time lief

Btrenglh. But it is obvious that such a condition of affairs

cannot last ; and yet, who can divine the future V Theuacertainty existing with regard to the affairs of Turkeyhas also the effect of curtailing trade in other quarters,

though not to the same extent. In spite, therefore, of thelarge supply of unemployed money, and the low rates

which are current in the discount market, ditirast and politi-

cal complications cheek any tendency to an improvement, the

only desire being, at present, to trade with safety, and, it popsible,

with some profit, however small. Considering the present unsatis-

factory condition of our export trade, it will occa^im no surprise, if

manufacturers should endeavor to curtail production. In Lin-cashire an attempt to effect this object is not only contemplated,but is making som? prrgress. In such a movement there arenecessarily some drawbacks to contend against, as it is difficalt to

please all classes of manufacturers. Producers, however, arenaturally anxious to do all that is in their power to increase thevalue of their goods by diminishing the sujply, and, at the sametime, to reduce the price of the raw material, by restricting thedemand for it ; but, as yet, the movement has not assumed suffi-

cient importance to materially influence the marke's. Those whohave inaugurated, «s well as those who are supporting the move-ment, are restricting it almost entirely to Whit-week, which is

the holiday season in tho manufacturing districts. To whatextent efforts will be made to diminish production in the future is

a question upon which there does not appear to be muchunanimity of opinion.

The demand for money duricg the week has been verymoderate, and the supply of floating capital bijing ample, therates for the best bills rule as under :

This week's Bank return shows a considerable increase of

strength. The supply of bullion is uow ai much as £37,095,323,while the total of "other securities" has declined to £10,000,7-10

The largest total for ihe y«-ar was ou the 5th of January, when' other securities" nmounted to £31.061,281 ; there has since then

been a diminution, therefore, of £10,134,470. The proportion of

reserve to liabilities, which, at the commencement ofitheyear

was only 28| per cent, is now 5154 pe'r cent. During the current

year the Bank ral« hag been reduced froa 5 to 3 per cent.

There hes been scarcely any demand for gold for export, andthe importations having been upon a moderate scale, supplies

have ontinued to accummulatie in the vaults of the Bank of

England. The silver market has remained dull, and the price of

fine bars has fallen to 5241. per ounce.

The following are the rates of discount at the leading cities

In the above, it will be seen that the Bank of Francs has

reduced its rate of discount from 4 to 3 percent. It was fixed at

the former figure on the 4th of Juun, 1874, so that a fuur per

cent rate has been in existence for nearly two years. The supply

of bullion held by that institution amounts to as much as

£80,100,000, while the proportion of reserve to liabilities is nearly

87 per cent.

The slock markets have been dull, and even consols havi; given

way, owing to the unsatisfactory aspect of the Eastern qiiestion-

The general public are operating to a very limited extent, andnot much speculation is in progress. Thero seems, at present,

to be no hope of any immediate improvement in values, and as

many c'assea of securities are at a low figure, it seems dangerous

to operate in any direction. With a view to check some of the

abuses which have caused so much sensation of late, the com-mittee of the Stock Exchange have passed a new rule, as follows

;

" No member shall enter into bargains in prospective dividends

ou shares or stocks of railways or other companies." Any in-

fraction of this rule will render a member liable to be dealt with

under rule 16. which may lecd to suspension or expulsion from

the Sioc'i Ex:hange.

The weather has been unsettled during the week, and there hasbeen a genial and opportune fall of rain. Ruin was u:uch

wanted throughout the country, the cold, dry, easterly winds whichhave prevailed for so long having pirched the earcU to such anextent that the progress of vegetation has been much impeded.There have, at times, been somewhat severe frosts at night ; but

the weather having been dry, not muc i damage has been d-^ne.

Green food for cattle has, however, in consequence of its scarcity*

risen to high prices, and for butchers' meat, enhanced terms havebeen obtained. As regards wheat, a firm tone has prevailed, andan advance of about Is. per ([uarterhas been established in prices.

The quantity of English grain offering has ontinued small ; but offoreign produce there has been a good supply. There has, how.ever, been a Continental demand for produce off the coast, andthis has naturally given soma firmness to the trade. It is not ex-

pected that this demand will assume any considerable propor-

tions ; but as the crop in France last year was not a large oneit is not improbable that a late harvest will compel Frenchmillers to make some moderate purchases of foreign produce.The wheat crop in this country looks promising on light soils ; buton heavy land, owing to the protracted wet, the plant has grown,unevenly, and is not expected to yield a favorable result.

The following figures show the imports and exports of cereal

produce into and from the United Kingdom since harvest, viz.,

from September 1 to the close of last week, compared with thecorresponding periods of the previous three years :

FRIDAY. JUNE 9, 1876—6 P. M.

The money Market and Financial Situation.—Theprincipal features of the past week have been the suspension of

the Atlantic Mills of Lawrence, Mass., and Cochrane, McLean &Co., dry goods jobbers in this city, a renewed strength and activity

in government securities, and a rather better tone in speculative

stocks on the declaration of a dividend by Western Union Tele-

graph, and good reports of railroad earnings for the month of

May. The embarrassments just referred to are, perhaps, desig-

nated more Droperly as liquidations than faiiures, if the large

amount of reported assets in proportion to liabilities, may be

taken as a standard; in the case of the Atlantic Mills, the treasurer

states that the land, water-power, mills, machinery, &c., stand

charged at $3,400,000, and the value of the cotton goods and sup-

plies is estimated at $335,000, making the total assets of the cor-

poration !«3,63u,000. The debt May 37 was $843,500, whichdeducted from the assets leaves a surplus of $1,783,500. As to

the jobbing house, it has been known for some time that their

paper was not selling well in this market, and it was not there-

fore so great a surprise when the suspension was announced; in

their case also, the amount of assets is said to be large. Theoccurrence of such failures, however, after putting the l)est pos-

sible face on the matter, is undoubtedly prejudicial, and the effect

is immediately seen in the preference given to exceptionally

choice paper, even at 4 per ceut., and in the demand for govern-ment securities at the high prices now ruling.

Our local money market has shown no particular change, therates on call being 3@3i per cent., and on prime paper 4 to percent., with much discrimination iu favor of the choicest paper.

On Thursday, the Bank of England reported a gain of £47,000specie for the week, and the discount rate was left unchanged at

2 per cent. The Bank of France gained 13,091,000 francs.

The last statement of the New York City Clearing-Housebanks, issued June 3, showed an increase of .$3,041,935 in theexcess above their 25 per cent, legnl reserve, the wliole of suchexcess being $16,450,150, against $14,414,235 the previous week.The following table shows the changes from the previous

week and a comparison with 1875 and 1874

United States Bonds.—The strength and activity in govern-ment securities have been one of the noticeable points of llie

week. There was a marked advance in the prices of five-twentiesin London, which seems to be scarcely accounted for satisfactorilyby the telegrams that it was owing to large purchases made forthe Continent. Both in London and here the advance was chieflyin the per cent, is-sues, and comparatively little in the 5 percents, which seems to indicate that purchasers have lost confidencethat practicable funding measures will be adopted at the presentsession of Congress. Notwithstanding the large advance inLondon (generally attributed to the fear of war in Europe), therehas been little done between that market and this, as there wasno sufficient margin for profitable transactions. Tlie largestbuyers here have been, as usual, the moneyed corporations, butthere have also been numerous inquiries from individual investors,who have been made very cautious by the decline in stocks andrailroad bonds.Closing prices of securities in London have been as follows:

State and Railroad Bonds.—There have been few transac-

tions in State bonds at the Board; Tennessees are about 1 percent, lower than last week, and the new Louisiana consols arealso easier at CoiSOoi. In a decision of the U. 8. Supreme Courtreferring indirectly to the Minnesota State Railroad bonds, the

opinion alludes, by-the-way, to the State's position as regards the

holders of those bonds, and affirms very distinctly the moral obli-

gation to settle with them.Railroad bonds have been well sustained on a moderate busi-

ness, and prices of several of the popular issues are higher.

Union Pacific first are about | higher than last Friday, and Central

Pacifies about 1 per cent, lower. The questions at issue l>etweeii

these companies and the Government are still unsettled, but fromthe decided change in the terms of the bills reported to the twohouses of Congress, it seems more than probable that they will

effect some arrangement for a sinking fund that will adjust all

their differences with the Government.

Railroad and miscellaneoas Stocks.—The stock mirkehas been sensitive, but tlie general tone perceptibly stronger.

Lake Shore and Michigan Central have been conspicuous duringmost of the week, and as to the former, there have been frequent

reports of a probable dividend in August ; for Michigan Central

the best card has been the increase in May earnings. WesternUnion Telegraph has declared a dividend of 1^ per cent, for

the quarter ending July 1, payable July 15, and based on the

following statement :

Net profits for the current quarter ending June 80 (June and part of

May estimated) $735,483Add dividend received on the shares of the International Ocean Teie-

XUe Gold Market—Gold varies an eighth per cent, accord-ing to the tenor of foreign dispatches from time to time, and thisis about all there is of the market. The export of specie hasfallen off, and a good deal now depends on the shape assumed bythe war question abroad, which will direct to some extent themovement of the exchanges, and influence both the shipments ofbreadstuifs and the prices of U. S. Government bonds abroad.On gold loans today the borrowing rate was 1 per cent. Loans

were also made fiat and at H, 1, 3, 3, and2i per cent, for carrying.• iistoms receipts of the week were $1,G31,C00.The following table will show the course of gold, and opera-

tions of the Gold Exchange Bank, each day of the past week:

ANNUAL REPORTS.

Boston Coiicoril & Montreal Railroad.

{For the year ending March 31, 1870).

The directors' annual report contains the following:

Not earnings $184,014

The increase of gross earnings over last year is f29,100, and ofnet earnings $41,803,—reeulta quite as favorable as could havebtien expected, considfring ilie long state of business depression.The road-bed, track, bridcfes, fences, stalions, &c , havo been

kept in careful repair, and are iu as good condition as at anypre-viouB period. Our equipment baa been increased by the purchafoof one thirty-ton freight engine, one first-class monitor-toppassenjrer car, and one new baggage car; one of our passengercars has been changed to a drawing room car; wo have rebuiltone passenger car with monitor top and Miller platform, andrebuilt seventeen platform cars and one box car, all at a cost ofover SoO.OOO.The semi annual dividends upon the preferred stock, amounting

to $43,000, have been paid and charged in the accounts. Thesinking fund holds $300,000 of its own bonds which cannot oere-issued, so that our bonded debt is practically reduced thatamount.The lease of the Southeastern Railway and equipment to the

Passumpsic Railroad, and the contract between the latter railroadand this corporation, expired, by limitation, in March last. Thesecontracts havo not been attended with direct profit, but haveresulted in an efficient and economical line to Montreal, which, in•connection with other incidental advantages to both the Pas-sumpsic and this corporation, promises, with the recurrence of

business activity, favorable pecuniary results. While, therefore,the lease and contract have not been formally renewed, they havebeen practically continued in force, and the line and the businessoperation and connections of the roads forming it have been con-tinued as heretofore.

The best interests of the corporation seemed to the directors torequire the extension of the branch from the Fahyan House tothe base of Mount Washington, a distance of about seven miles,there connectingjdirectly with the Mount Washington Railwayextending to the summit. Accordingly, contracts for its construetion were entered into last fall and the work was then commenced.It is expected that this extension will be completed and openedfor public travel by the first of next July.The directors trust that the future of the corporation will soon

warrant the issuing of the consolidated stock to the satisfactionand for the best interests of all concerned. During the past year,we have sold consolidated bonds to the amount of $345,100, theproceeds of which have been applied towards payment lor thebranch extension.

The directors, nubject to the approval of the stoekliolder* ofthis company, have taken a lease of the Xashna Acton & BostonRailroad for the term of ten years, from Jan. 1, 1870, and at therent of $11,000 per annum. Id connection with this lease, par>chases of the rolling stock, and other furniture of the same road,have been made by this company to the amount of $70,0*0. Thesepurchases were necessary for the purposes of the leasr, bnt tbaproperty would bo useful to this read, and was taken at soehprices that there would be no loss to this company on it, even Ifthe lease should not be approved and continued. In addition tothis, a loan of $73,500 has been made by this company to tboNashua Acton & lijston Railroad, to enable it to discharge somaof its obligations, which it was desirable to have removed inorder to accomplish the lease. This loan is made on secaritj-which the directors regard as reliable, and the interest on it iaprovided for by allowance from the rent of the lease. The sumof $16,513 has been paid towards the purchase ol the property,above mentioned from the earnings of this road, during the paatyear, and is included in the foregoing expenses of that year.To provide for the balance of these purchases, and also to

supply the place of the funds used for the loan referred to, it haabeen necessary for this company to make temporary loana on Ita

own credit, for which its notes have l>een given.

Balance of Incomo account

During the year, 456 tons of iron and 200 tons of steel rails, and53,030 new sleepers have been laid in the track, and about 3,300

tons of rails have been repaired and ro-laid. One new mail mudeleven freight cars have been built as additions to the equipmantof the road, and one passenger engine and seventeen freight cans

have been re-built to supply the place of others ; and the road

and furniture have been kept in good repair. The report wtym :

The statement of earnings and expenses from the agent's

department, if compared with that of the previous year, woaTdindicate a large decrease of income during the past year. Bnt «part of the difference which thus appears arises merely from »change in the form of the accounts; the statement of last y««rhaving included certain receipts which now appear in the ItMKof balance of interest account.

The actual falling off in the total income of the road darinf^UMyear, from that of the previous year, has arisen from those geaaial

causes which have so severely depressed the business of railroad^

in common with other enterprises, during the year.

The amount of outstandi|ng Flint and Holly bonds is stated at

$400,500. This will appear iuconsistent with recently publishedBt»temeats in which the sum is given as $375,000. The discrep.ancy is explained by the fact that the trustees redeemed the bondsof tiiat issue that matured on the first of May, 18T5, but have notyet returned them cancelled to the Treasurer's office.

The bonds of the first trust having been redeemed and can-celled (except $1,000, as stated in the report), and the remaining«B9et8 of this and the second trust being largely in excess of theFlint and Holly bonds, $380,009 of which do no't mature till 1888,this credit balance was disposed of, under direction of the Board,as provided in the Trust Deed of Aug. 2, 1875, by a conveyanceto trustees of the latter trust of real estate to extent of $113,411for security of bonds therein named, and by merging the balanceinto the genera] fund of the company to the extent of .§01,593.Tlie issue of 8 per cent land-grant bonds was not secured on thebmds from which these funds were lealized.The expenses of 1875 were largely increased by reason of tbe

Tery severe and protracted winter of '74 and '75, during whichthe damage to track and rollinff stock and the cost of removingBnow were excessive. The cross earnings and operating expensesof the year compared with former years as follows

The report of this company lor the year 1875 contains the state •

meuts below ; the report of the connecting line, the St. Paul &Sioux City, was given in the CIIUONICLE of May 13, on page 470.

The President says

:

The final arljustment of our lands with the State of Iowa hasnot been made, and no deeds have been received from the State

during the past year. The suit brought by the McGregor RailwayCompany, for about 190,000 acres of our lands, pending at date

of my last report, remains undecided. By the advice of a majorityof the Directors, I entered into an agreement with the McGregorCompany to refer the claim made by them to Eon. S. F. Miller

for decision, both parties agreeingto abide by his determination of

the cas". The greater portion of lands heretofore sold, haie beenfor bonds, and at prices that would redeem the face of the bonds.or neaily so. without including the lands in suit. Should thoselands be lost to the company, the remaining lands will h^ve to besoH at the lull appraised value, and great care and economypracticed to make the lands redeem tlie bonds. As President ef

tlie coinpauv and Trustee lor the bondholders, I deem it uiy dutyto hold the lands at present pr'ces, until the qaesiiou of disputed,

title is settled. Feeling confident of success in obtaining title for

the lauds in suit. I have contracted to sell some of them, and asmall portion of the bonds on hand are deposited on account of

such sal-s. No deeds have been given, and if ou' title fails, thebonds will be returned, an t contracts cancelled. At the last

report, I'lere had been cancelled of land bonds $3'^S.0d0. At thenext nie-tin,; ot the board there will be cancel. ed $317,000

—

np.king in all, of cancelled bonds, tCOO,000; leaving outstaniiing

^'3,300 000. From sales made sinc^ January 1st, IST'J, boads havebeen received for sale of deeded lands equal to the amountreceived for sale or contract of disputed lands, so we miy safely

cancel the full amount shown by this report to be on hand. I

think it proper lo remind all holders of land bonds that their

bonds may be exchanged for any lands of the company, at

appraised prices for land, and at the face value of the bonds.

Hissonri Faciflc Railroad.—A deepatcli from St. Lonis, Jane6, saya: In the United States Circuit Court, to-day, a decree offoreclosure of the third mortgage bonds of the Missouri PacificBallroad was consented to, subject, however, to the rights of St.

Louis County to its claim for $700,000, and the right to a priorlien OTcr all other incumbrances. It is understood that C. K.Garrison, who represents the holders of these third mortgagebonds, has made a proposition to the County Court of St. LouieCouaty, that the holders of these bonds consent to a foreclosureof the morteace and the sale of the road, and will make over tothe county $700,000 ol the new third mortgage bonds to ecsureitB claim.

The Court had previously ordered that the receivers of the PacificBailroad are authorized, if in their judgment they think it advisa;ble, to purchase and retire such portion of the second mortgageb3nd8 on the Pacific Railroad as are required to be retired by theterms of said mortgage

;provided no certificates of indebtedness

be issued tor such purpose without further order of the Court.

Mobile & Ohio.—A plan of reorganization has been preparedby joint committees of the bondholders and the board of direc-tors, and is summed up as follows by the Bailroad Gazette:

1. Stockholders to surrender their certificates and to receivenew ones for one-half of the former amount. The other half tobe held by trustees for the purpose of voting only.

3. The present securities of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad Com-pany to be surrendered to a trust company, and held in escrow,so as 10 preserve to the owners all their present rights and pow-ers, and new securities given therefor as follows

:

3. Currency 6 per cent bonds at the rate of |lo,000 per mile onthe 472 miles of main line, $7,080,000 in all, to be divided betweenholders of first mortgage and Tennessee substitution bonds, prorata, in proportion to the mileage covered by their respectiveliens. Coupons unpaid and up to Jan. 1, 1878, to be included inthe amount to be redeemed with these bonds.

4. First preferred 7 per cent income bonds, interest non-cumu-lative, to be issued for the balance of the ;first mortgage andTennessee substitution bonds.

5. Second preferred 7 per cent income bonds, interest non-cumulative, to be issued for the second mortgage bonds andcoupons unpaid and up to March 1, 1878.

6. Third preferred 7 percent, income bonds, interest non-cumu-lative, to be issued for the convertible bonds and coupons unpaidand up to March 1, 1878, also in settlement of judgments, float-ing debt and other claims now outstanding.

7. Dividends on stock to be paid only when an equal amountis in hand and applied to the purchase and cancellation of thepreferred income bonds, in the order of their respective prioritiesThe present stock is $5,320,600 ; the total amount of funded

debt is $15,079,043.

New Jersey Town Bonds.—An act of the Legislature of NewJersey, passed in 1868, authorized the owners of two-thirds of thevalue of real estate, in any townsbip through which the Mont-clair Railroad should pass, to issue its bonds to the amount of 20per centum of the valuation of the real estate of such township.The Township of Pompton accordingly issued $100,000 in bondsto aid the railroad. These bonds were purchased by Peter Cooper,

to the Cooper Union. The bonds were due onand by him givenr - —

November 1, 1873, at the First National Bank of jTrsey'city.'butwere not paid, and hence a suit. The defence was irregularity inthe action of the commissioners in the issue of the bonds, anddefects in the consents obtained from the taxpayers and in theaffidavits of the assessors nullifying the assents.The suit was tried at great length before Judge Strong at

Trenton, and the jury, under direction of the Court, without leav.ing their seats, rendered j udgment for the nlaintiffs for the fullamount claimed.

. New Orleans Mobile & Texas.—Justice Bradley, of theSupreme Court, recently decided in the Circuit Court at NewOrleans the case of Charles Morgan vs. The New Orleans Mobile& Texas Railway Company. The suit was based upon an allegedviolation of a contract formed between Charles Morgan and theNew Orleans Mobile & Texas Railroad Company, on the 12th ofDecember, 1871.

Charles Morgan owned two steamers and a railroad betweenSew Orleans and the lake, and another from New Orleans toiirashear. He agreed to relinquish running them for fifteenyears, and to turn them over to tUe Mobile Railroad Company at« stipulated price, fixed at $797,800. This included wharvessteamers, Pontchartrain Railroad stock to the amount of 5 080hares; also the Opelousas. Mr. Morgan further agreed to s'ub-Bcribe to the stock the sum of $1,258,000 on the same terms asother subscribers, and the property before named was to be takenag payment of the subscription as far as it went. Mr. Moro-anwas to receive as security mortgage bonds and income bond.s" of

iT ''*?iS*n°nV>- ^V**,*Btipolated that Morgan should have, for

the f2o0,0(il0 cash, the levee line of the Pontchartrain Railroadand the new depot. The gross receipts of tho through businesswere to be divided ratably according to the relative length of thewulroads of complainant and defendants between New Orleans«ad lexas. The agre.ement was made in the city of New Yorkahe Judge concludes as follows :

" The conclusion I am forced to

^""^o^i'^^^^'•^'' principal contract made on the 12th of Decem-

ber 1871, between Charles Morgan and the New Orleans Mobile& lexas Railroad Company was a New York contract, governed

?S«^t'ifJ"X^and obligations by the laws and jurisprudence ofthe State of New York, and as by their laws and jurisprudence,

80 far as appears, no such dissolving consequence follows from a-non-performance of a part of the contract as is claimed in this '

case, the claim is untenable, and the relief must be refused. Asno relief can be granted on either of the grounds laid in the biUof complaint, the same must be dismissed with costs."

New York Boston & Montreal.—The New York and BostonDivision was sold under foreclosure of the first mortgaa-e inWhite Plains, N. Y., June 5. The whole amount of the bond*and accrued interest is $3,230,835, for which amount the propertywas bought in by the Farmers' Loan and Trust Company, Trusteefor account of the bondholders. This division extends froniHigh Bridge to Brewster's, about fifty miles, on some twenty-fivemiles of which track has been laid.

N. Y. City Bonds.—At an adjourned meeting of the Board ofEstimate and Apportionment, the Controller was authorized toissue $60,0C0 in bonds for the four new free baths. He was alsoempowered to issue $633,835 in bonds to pay assessments foropening streets, etc. The Mayor then called up the question ofauthorizing the issue of $1,000,000 in bonds for the Brooklya—Bridge. T. G. Ritch, counsel for the opponents of building thoJbridge at the present hight, asked one day's delay to hearargument. Henry C. Murphy, President of the Board o'f Trustee*of the Bridge, said the act of the Legislature made it mandatoryon the Board to issue the bonds on a requisition from the BridgeTrustees. This requisition was made a year ago, and expectingmoney from the city, the Trustees have gone on with their workand their obligations now amounted to about $600,000. In answer-to questions, Mr. Murphy sta.ed that the Trustees had compliedwith all the requirements of the act of Congress in regard to th»Bridge, and had the written peraiission of the Secretary of Warto go on with the construction upon the present plans. Afcersomediscussion, in which Mayor Wickham spoke in favor of theresolution, it was adopted, the Controller voting in the negative.

Portland Saco & Portsmouth.—The report of the Director*states that the future dividends are to be three per cent, semi-annually, and the Eastern is to pay all taxes. A resolution waspassed at the recent annual meeting, authorizing the issue of$500,000 in six per cent, bonds, secured by mortgage to run fortwenty years, to pay all the outstanding liabilities and to providefunds for contingencies.

Western Union Telegraph.—The followinir is the quarterly-report of the Executive Committee of the Western Union Tele-graph Comnany :

To the Directori : The Executive Committee respectfully sub-mit the following statement of the operations of the company andthe condition of Us affairs:

the profits to be $788,790 75, or $08,770 22 in excess of the esti-mate. Adding this excess to the estimated surplus of $33 626 60,as above, gives $102,492 82 as the actual surplus April 1, 1876.This was what remained after providing for six months' intereston the bonded debt due May 1, and one year's appropriations forthe sinking fund and payment of all liabilities for the completionand furnishing of the new building, all of which have since beenpaid.

Early in May it became expedient to close the matter,which was done by purchasing a majority of the stock. A leaseof the lines has since been negotiated, the details of which havebeen substantially settled, and it is expected that possession willbe given us in a short time.The amount of the purchase is about 8200,000, which, deductedfrom the i .alance of SS5(;,314 49, ns above, leaves S526,314 4»

CXJMMERClAFEPiToSBuiDAY NiOHT, June 9, 1870.

General trade has remained dull, but speculation in Ixadiog."laples hag received a new impulse from the condition and pros-pects of political affairs on the Continent, it bf^ing doubtfulwhether peace shall be maintained in Europe, or whetiior ageneral war shall break out. In mercantile circles the discussionhas been active concerninsr the probable effect of such a warupon business and values, and the course of speculation basbeenlargely influenced by conflicting views. Private advices fromEngland have jreneraDy given assurance of the maintenance ofpeace; butthey do not receive full credit with us. The weather hasbecome warm, and crop prospects are almost uniformly favorable.The speculation in hog products has been generally towards

higher prices, stimulated in part by the reduclion that has beeneffected in stocks, but more directly by the expectation of war in

Europe, and the export demand to which it may give rise. Be-sides, the summer production is not so iarge as in previous years.Mess pork to-day was quoted at $19 50 on the spot, and the clos-ing bids for future delivery, were $19 20 for July, |19 05 forAugust, $19 .'50 for September and for October. Lard has re-

' covered nearly one cent a pound from the lowest point, and. soldfreely today at $11 C3i@ll 70 for prime city and Western, withclosing bids for future delivery, $11 65 for July, $11 75 forAugust, $11 82i for September and $11 80 for October. Baconand cut meats are also rather dearer, alter some speculative trans-actions at low prices early in the week. Beef and beef hamshave been dull and drooping, but close more steady. Tallow hasbeen selling fairly at 8fc. for prime. Stearine is dull at 13(al3Jc.for prime. Butter is in large supply at 15(ro25c., as in quality.Cheese is lower at 8@llc. for new State factories.

The business in ocean freights for the past week has not reachedthat liberal volume that was so noticeable during the previousweek. The consequence is that the grain rates, both for berth

: and charter room, are a trifle easier. Petroleum tonnage, how-Iever, is firm and, at the close, in better demand. Late engage-ments and charters were : Grain to Liverpool, by steam, 0@9id.

was a falling off in the export demand;prices, however, re-

mained firm at SfccaSlc. lor crude, in bulk, and Uic. for

There has been a moderate demand for Kentucky tobacco, andquotations are steady at 6i@8c. lor lugs and Si'SlOc. for leaf ; the

sales for the week embraced GOO hhds., of which 400 were for ex-

5V2 THE CHRONICLE. [June 10, 1876.

Our Acrkaoe Kepoht.—We Bliall be delayed until two weeks

from today in the publication of our acreage report. Tbis ia

owing to the very extensive correspondence we have been under-

taken this year, which promises to result in an amount of infor-

mation on this subject never before gathered. One point in par-

ticular we have sought to determine, and that is the exact planting

and yield per acre in each county of tlie South the last two years.

If this can be reached, and the increased or decreased planting in

evcrv county for this year be determined, we shall secure an un-

usual degree of accuracy in our result; for it is not simply the

aggregate acreage in the United States that determines the crop;

it is of far more importance to know, in seeking to reach a correct

conclusion, whether acres that easily produce 500 lbs. have been

substituted for those which, with difliculty, produce 90 lbs., or

nee versa, and just to what extent this has been done. With re-

gard to the result of previous crops, we began collecting our in-

formation several months isince, and our returns have been very

eatisfiictory and gratifying. If we succeed aa fully in our efforts

as we now anticipate, we shall have the satisfaction of knowingthat we have taken another element of uncertainty out of this

•crop question.

Weekly Kkceipts of Cotton.—Below we give a table

showing the receipts of cotton each week at all the ports of the

United Slates for several seasons, indicating, also, the total

crop each year. Our fisures are given in thousands of bales.

MOVE.MENT OF CoTTON IS LIVERPOOL,—We find in the Man-chester Guardian the followina: estimates of the probablemovement of cotton in Liverpool from 19th May to the 29th ofSeptember, 1870. The first line, it will be seen, gives the stockat Liverpool, May 18 (1,001,120 bales), and the last line the an-ticipated prices, Sept. 89. One is almost induced to believe thatthere is some connection between the ownership of the presentLiverpool stock and the anticipated prices given in these

In examining the American portion of the above, our readei

should remember that on 18th of May the American afloat fo

Liverpool was 303,000 bales, and the stock at our outports

4.58,325 bales, and the amount likely to be received at the port

from May 18 to Sept. 1, about 180,000 bales, or a total of aboui

840,000 bales. Out of this, we should allow for England ai

least .^50,000 bales more than the highest estimate of Americangiven above. It was not our purpose, however, to criticise tht

various items in these estimates, but simply to warn our reader)

against acting on the supposition that the prices named are to fc

reached ; for certainly we have no good reason for expectin'j

them to be, in any event other than that we have mentioned-a disaster to our crop.

Gunny Bags, Bagging, &c.—Bagging has ruled quiet durint

the week past, and the enquiry is of no importance. The sale

making are only of small parcels; Holders are asking forme:

figures, but values are entirely nominal in the absence of an]

trade. Bales are quiet and unclianged at 9(a9ic. for India

Bags are nominal. Jute butts are ruling quiet, and we hear oi

no sales of moment making. Pricen are unchanged, and at th(

close holders are asking 3ic. cash and 3c. time. Lots to arrg

are dull at previous figures.

Liverpool, June 9—3:30 P. M.—By Cable from LitPOOL.—Estimated sales of the. day were 10,000 bales, of wb2,000 bales were for export and speculation. Of to-day's safl

BRE ADSTUFPS.FaiDAT. p. M., June », 1870.

The flour market was without essential change during the pastweek, but towards the close became more active, with a slight

upward tendency. The export demand wae good lor commonand medium extras, ranging from $.') 10 to f (S 20 ; and the bettergrades of bakers' and family brands were latterly more salable.

This is especially true of Southern Hours. Supplies for this point

have not come forward very freely, but there is an iocrrased

production at the West, for which our receivers are inclined to

make room. Rye flour has tended upward, and corn meal haabeen quite active a: a slight decline. To-day, the market WMdull and weak, except for common shipping extras.

The wheat market was variable throughout the week, in ton*as well as in volume of basiness. Receipts all all points havematerially increased, and crop accounts are excellent, but theinfluences have proceeded fmm the daily changes in the phasesassumed by political affairs on the Costinent. The offerings havebeen free, and the demand promptly filled, so that very little

improvement has taken place on the reduced prices noted in oarlast. Yesterday there were large sales of No. 2 spring at |1 ITJfor Chicago and |1 20 for Milwaukee, with prime No. 1 at |1 32.

To-day, there was a further advance of ^.,whicb checked businees.

Indian corn was somewhat depressed e^rly in the week, byliberal supplies of new mixed, much of it out of condition, andholders anxious to effect prompt sales. Prices gave way I(g2c,

per bushel in consequence. But latterly receipts by rail bav»fallen off, and the demand has been urgent to fill freight engage-

ments. Prices more than recovered the early decline, and la«t

evening were Ic. higher for sound qualities, and 2@3c. higher for

the lower grades, which are comparatively lest plenty. Thelimited speculation for future delivery has been In prime mixed,at 59c. for June and 60c. for July. Receipts at the West havegreatly increased. To-day, the market was quiet and scarcely so.firm. Steamer mixed 56(257^0.Rye has been active for arrival at 87c. for Western and IHJic. for

State, closing quiet, with Canada nominal. Barley remainsquirt, but barley at some decline has been more salable. Can-ada peas are unsettled.

Oats have been active, and prices are l@2e. higher. Therehas been some business for export to France (part tor arrival) at40(u!44c. for prime to choice mixed. Yesterday, No. 2 Milwauae*sold at 4!Sic., and No. 2 city-graded at 38c., with choice white 47cin store. To-day, the market was dull.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.Fbidat. p. M., Juno 9, 1876.

Tii« trade movement has been irregular duriag the past weekvrith package houses. The clothing trade have been operating

toiL fair extent in heavy woolens, but, as a rule, domestic cotton*

''•vere very quiet, while prints, dress goods, &c., were in moderatewitnaand. JVith importers, business has been dull and uninterest-

ing, and the jobbing trade has been about as active as usual at tb

advanced period of the season, when retailers only buy sui

small re-Bssortments as ar« found uec-fssary for the pursuani

current trade. The Atlantic Cotton Mills will be closed in a

days, owing to tbe fioatinjf debt of the corporation having

come too large to be paid without increasing the capital si

which will probably be done, and the company re-orgaobij

within a short time, when these splendid mills will again resuj

production. Messrs. Cochran, McLetin & Co., importers and joj

bers, have suspended payment, with liabilities of about $1,00C

000, and nominal assets of $2,000,000, and tho firm will go in

liquidation. The house has not b^en in very (rood credit f

some time past, but was so strongly backed by men of wealt

that the failure was somrtwhat of a surprise ; as it is, a lar;

dividend may be expected, buciuse of the bonorable character 1

the members of the firm, provided the creditors act harmonously.

Domestic Cotton" Goods.—There wer.; exported from th

port during tbe week 1,113 packages cotton goods, of which Gre

Britain took ."iO? packagfs, Brazil 34'3 packages, and other countri

the remainder. There was also an increased demand by Ciuadi

merchants, whose purcbafes do not appear in the above list, a

American cottons are evidently gaining a foothold in theDominii

The home demand was light, but fairly satislactory for the til

of yehf. Agi-nts for the large corporations whose fabric welately sold at auction have not yet fully determined upon pric

for fuiurH busine.es, but ihe few quotations i^sul.•d are a tritie abo

those realized ^t auction. Bleached shirtings were in fairdemai

and generally steady, although a few unimportant reductio

were made on low grad>-s. Brown and colored cottons were du

in first hands, but broken ots were distributed to a fair aggrega

amount. White ground prints—which have become comparative

ccarce—were fairly active, and there was a well-sustained demai

for shirting prints, cambrics, and percales. The lately unprofitab

results attending calico prinlina; are seen in the published repor

of New England print works, whose semi-annual meeting! hav

been held within the last few weeks. Some of these repor

show losses on the half-year's business, varying from $CO,000

$100,000. Print cloths have been very quiet, but pricc^s

nominally sli-ady at 3Jc.—cash to oOdays—for extra standard

c'oths, although soma small transactions were reported at

cash.

Domestic Woolen Goods. -There has been a slight

provement in the demand fi:r moderate lots of heavy wooleni

cloiliiers, 'out the general trade has been less active than sangaic

holders expected, and jobbers are placing orders for the aiitam

tiade with extreme caution. Thej)bbing trade has been ligb

and Messrs. Gilbert iSt Weaver have been compelled to suspsn

payment, owing to the late shriukagfe in values and the dulness

business. Plain beavers were relatively more active than fane;

makes of overcoatings, wh'ch were comparatively quiet. Heavcassimeres and suitings of new and attractive styles found boy

era, but old styles are difficult to move at a reasonable pric*

Cloths and doeskins were dull at unchanged prices, but there

more inquiry for popular makes of diagonal and fancy worste

coatings. Satinets moved slowly, and Kentucky jeans lacked ani

mation, although extremely low offers werejmade for considerabl

lots. Flannels remained quiet as a rule, but a few sales wer

made to the shirt trade, which is indicative of an early movemenin these fabrics. Worsted dress goods were in fair request fo

the time of year.

Foreign Dry Goods.—With importers, business has been ver;

quiet, but jobbers effected numerous small sales, which reached 1

fair aggregate amount. Low-grade black silks were in stead;

request, and grenadines were taken in fair parcels. Linen goodi

were quiet but steady in price, but white goods and embroideries

were a trifle lower in some cases. Woolen goods for men's wes

remained exceedingly quiet in first hands, but were distribute'

rather more freely in the auction rooms. Ribbons and milliner;

silks were largely sold at auction, the former at low and th(

latter at fair prices.
