First Mortgage

7 Per Cent Gold Bonds.

These bonds are issued at the rate of $18,3:B per

mile upon GOITIPLEXED ROAD from

NEBRASKA CITY, on tlie Missouri River,

to I,INCOl.N, tlic CAPITAL of NEBRASKA.

Tiie distance between tiiese points is about sixty

miles, and this division of tiie Road is in success-

ful operation and earning net more than all the

interest on its bonds. It penetrates an EXCEED-

INGLY RICH AGRICULTURAL region, with

UNLBOTED CAPABILITIES for production, and

is much needed for removal of abundant crops

to market. This need has been so much felt

that LOCAL SUBSCRIPTIONS TO THEAMOUNT OP $8,000 PER MILE HAVE BEENMADE to facilitate the extension of the road

from Lincoln westward to the Platte River,

which is in process of construction. The MID-

LAND PACIFIC forms part of a direct EASTAND WEST TRUNK ROUTE, now being rapidly

built from Urbana, on the INDIANAPOLIS,

BLOOMINGTDN & WESTERN RAILWAY, in

Illinois, through A VERY RICH AGRICUL-

TURAL DISTRICT, DENSELY POPULATED

for the greater part of the way, to Grand Island,

on the Platte River, where junction is made with

the Union Pacific Railroad. This new line, 610

miles long, is formed of three links, of which

more than 200 MILES ARE COMPLETED, a

force of over 2,000 men is engaged in vigorous

prosecution of the work, and THE ENTIRE LINEIS TO BE FULLY COMPLETED IN 1873.

The roads composing this trunk line are JtT-

DICI0U8LY LOCATED, AND ARE UNDERTHE DIRECTION OP SOME OF THE ABLESTAND MOST SUCCESSFUL RAILWAY MAN-AGERS of the country. Being in the same in-

terest, consolidation must follow, and thus form

a strong combination of railway. Directness of

route is greatly in its favor, as it saves 147

miles in distance between New York and San

Francisco over any existing line. The MIDLANDPACIFIC, with the broad area of fertile and most

prodnctive land tributary to it, with its close

alliance with the Missouri, Iowa & Nebr.iska Rail-

road and the Indianapolis. Bloomington & WEST-ERN EXTENSION, must soon bo taxed to its

fullest limit to accommodate local and through

business. Shipments of products by this road

will lead to the WEST as well as to the EAST.

We recommend these Bonds, which are a FIRSTLIEN on COmPEiETKD road, as a prime

security, PERFECTLY SAFE, and IN RETURNSmuch more desirable for investors than Govern-

nijeut Bonds.

GOLD MOVEMENTS HERE AND ABROAD.

Although the movements of gold have ceased to com-

mand much attention io Wall street, the announcement was

received yesterday, with satisfaction, that Mr. Boutwell has

determined to prepay the July coupons from Tuesday next.

The disbursements from the Treasury will thus be

anticipated by a few days, and the combinations will be

disturbed by which a clique have been trying to fores up

the premium, instead of leaving it free to its own spon.

taneous movements. This clique is suppoaed to have been

formed several weeks a<;o, and wields considerable moans.

Their plan was to buy up ten or twelve millions, which is

supposed to be all the available cash-gold in the market.

Such a project can be manipulated with the more facility, as

the banks, for reasons wo lately explained, are very ready

to carry gold on easy terms for any trustworthy parties.

The operators holding so large an amount of gold have been

lending it out at high rates from day to day, and on such

loans they rely, in part, for the profit on their speculation.

As to Mr. Boulwell's prepayment of interest it would have

been of greater service if announced some days ago, which

might have been done, when our exports of gold to Europe

were causing an anxiety which hoa now subsided, as is seen

by the decline in t'.ie premium.

The chief cause for this abatement of the publio anxiety

Cftntres, however, of course in the hopeful prospect of the

conference at (icneva and the adjournmerit to Wednesday,

when, as is believed, a final satisfactory adjustment of the

iadirect claims will be arrived at. The public mind seems

to be 80 well satisfied that even in the improbable case of

failure, the misfortune would be only temporary and its

worst consequence merely delay.

The reduction of the Bank of England rate has had no

perceptible influence whatever in the gold room, and very

little on the loan market. If the monetary situation had

been l«ss tranquil, and if rates had ruled higher, the influ-

ence would have probably been very distinctly perceptible,

as larger amounts of floating capital owned abroad will

remain here now than if the Bank of England rate were one

per cent higher. And other things 1>eing equal the ease of

money is directly proportioned to the full or scanty supply

of floating capital pouring into the reservoir of the loan

market.

The most dnflnite result perceptible as yet from the in-

creasing monetary ease in London affocts new bonds, which

have been extremely dull for months, but now seem to begaining in strength. The most sanguine anticipations are

indulged by some of the projectors who hold these bonds.

But until the Alabama treaty is finally settled, these hopes

unless in a few exceptionally fortunate cases, are likely to

be of slow fulfillment; unless, indeed, as is argued in somequarter, the rate of interest in London should go down to

24 or even 2 per cent. Whether or not there be any force

in this argument the future will show.

The working of the London money market is just nowexposed to a set of new forces which bafHe computation and

originate in the large amount of cash held by the GermanGovernment. This amotmt, as we show elsewhere, is un-

known, and its manipulation is a state secret, guarded

with the most mysterious secresy. A month ago the Ger-

man <Tovernment had rt millions sterling in the Bank of

England, and was both buying gold and drawing it from the

bank. Since then a reverse process has apparently been

adopted, and the probability is that the German balance is

steadily accumulating. Anyhow the report is that t^e

amount of foreign capital seeking investment in England

has not for years been so large as now. And it is easy to

see that there are narrow limits to the capacity of Germany

to absorb swiftly and use productively any considerable ac-

cessions to its streams of floating capital.

If, as we suppose, it is to these German monies that the

accumulation in the London money market is due, there

may be trouble hereafler when these Imperial funds come

to be drawn out in gold, as they very probably may be

before long. This is, however, another reason why the

Bank should hold a larger reserve of ootn ind bullion, and

should be compelled to do so if she will not make thix

814 TflE CHRONICLE. [June 22, 1872.

needful provision of her own accord. Meanwhile, she is

taking comfort from the fact that a few millions of gold

have reached her from here, tlial more are coming from Aus-

tralia, and especially from India ; the East India Govern-

ment having to pay a balance to England often or eleven

millions sterling.

TIMID TAXilTM IN CONGRESS.

Congress, it has been said, in framing the new tax bill

seems to have been so afraid of doing wrong that it dared

not do right. There is some truth in this charge. It is

strange that a bill which, with a little change, could be

made acceptable and gener.illy popular, is now so out Of

favor, that the best commendation that can be given to it is

that its many glaring faults are compensated by a few good

points, while there is scarcely one of its provisions which

has received unqualified approval. Still some of its best

features deserves a brief mention.

Perhaps the most noteworthy of these is in the 37th sec.

tion, which regulates the assessment of the tax on bank" capital." The law no longer charges deposits as capital.

It is now modified in partial accordance with the rule

we have often recommended. This tax on bank capital was

first imposed in the act of June 30th, 1864, and was very

faulty. Instead of taxirg the banks in such a way as to

impede as little as possible the monetary and industrial

activity of the country, the law was so contrived as to

answer a purpose directly the reverse. Never before in

this country, never before or since in any other country in

the world, has fo monstrous a tax been ever ventured

upon. If the sapient oontrivers of this impost could have

submitted to be taught by experience, history, or com-

mon sense, they would have spared the country much finan-

cial inconvenience. Thej' set these teachings aside, and

were guided instead by the simple principle that bankers

ply a lucrative trade and must be heavily taxed. Accord-

ingly they charged on these rich culprits, besides the stamp

duties on every movement they make in business, the fol-

lowing direct taxation : First, one-half per cent a year on

their average deposits ; secondly, one-half per cent a year

on their circulation ; and lastly, one-half per cent on their

capital. The last named tax was imposed on " the capital

of any bank association, company, or corporation ; and on

the capital employed by any person in the business of bank-

ing beyond the average amount invested in United States

bonds." We quote the very words of the law for a reason

which will soon be apparent.

These triple taxes it might be supposed were sufficiently

troublesome, but fo make them more so they were ordered

to be assessed monthly at the rate of l-24th per cent. Asmight be supposed, the trouble of making the frequent

returns to Washington on oath was intolerable, but a penal-

ty of 10 per cent was subsequently denounced against any

bank failing to make thera promptly on the 10th day of

every month, and the insubordination was soon suppressed.

Shortly afterwards an astute discovery was made. The

"capital" of a banker was found to include not only his

own means invested in the business, but also the funds

entrusted to him by his customers. For the law

ta.xes not capital simply, but " capital employed."

All bankers and brokers therefore wore compelled to

submit to this interpretation of a section of the law which,

though ambiguously expressed, was never intended to give

a new definition in political economy. Everybody knows

what is meant by the capital of a banker or broker,

and everybody knows that a tax on a broker's capital

cannot be assessed on the money of his customers, whether

that m^nej be placed with bim as {margins,Jor deposits, or

otherwise. Still the Internal Revenue ofificers have insisted

on their interpretation, the brokers have had to yield, and

millions of dollars of taxation have been exacted under pro-

test. The controversy is now over, and, as will be seen

from our issue of the 8th June, the law has received the

following improvement : First, the words capital employed

do " not include money borrowed or received from day to

day in the usual course of business from any person not a

partner of or interested in the said bank association or

firm ;" and, secondly, tli« taxes on deposits, capital and cir-

culation are to be collected of banks semi-annually instead

of monthly.

Both these amendments rest, as will be readily seen^

on sound principles. It would, however, be belter to

have boldly taken off the tax on deposits as well as the tax

on capital, and to have compensated it by a heavier tax on

circulation. The issue of a currency is a privilege which

may well be paid for by a tax ; the receipt of deposits is no

such special privilege as justifies taxation. Still less should

capital be taxed : for such a tax offers a direct premium to

the weaker brokers, for this simple reason, that it gives to

a banking firm speculating with a small capital and large

deposits a series of spurious advantages which are denied to

his more solid, substantial and trustworthy neighbor doing

a conservative, moderate, safe business with a large

capital.

The law needs, then, a larger measure of reform. Still

we are quite willing to accept the modicum of it recently

given us. We gladly hail the improvement in the half-

yearly collection and in the restricting of the tax on capi-

tal to its proper limits. There are two points, however,

on which we are not quite so well satisfied. The first is as

to the money which the passage of these amendments is

rumored to have cost. The Board of Brokers are said to

have had an agent in Washington, whom they paid to go

there and urge this change before Congress. This agent has

returned, and declares, as we are informed, that he has spent

a good deal of money in lobbying. If so, the people would

like to know precisely hDW much was spent, to whom it was

paid, and for what. These questions have a grave public

interest, and we have a right to an answer. If any members

of Congress have refused to vote for this salutary measure

until induced by the stimulus of a bribe, the people wish to

know it. The Board of Brokers are too honorable a set of

men not to be anxious to clear themselves of their share in

so damaging an imputation of fraud and misfeasance.

But there is another question : Several millions of dollars

of taxes have been paid, as we said, by the brokers as taxes

on "capital employed." A part of this sum was paid under

protest against the "ruling" which is now no longer enforced.

What ought to be done about these protested sums of

money ? Are they to be voluntarily repaid by the

Treasury * If not, can they be recovered by action at law ?

There ire a number of active, litigious spirits that ard

ready to bring suit. Their claim evidently turns on

whether the 37ih section of the new law is retroactive. Wewould not deprive the gentlemen who are so anxious to try

this question of any valid motive to do so, but we frankly

say to them that there is authority for the opinion that,

though they may get satisfaction from an appeal to the

courts, they will not get much relief.

Among the commendable changes effected in the law, the

one abolishing informers' moieties in certain cases is not to

be overlooked. England early in her fiscil history gave up

the demoralizing plan of inciting informers to disclose

frauds on the revenue by paying to these men half of the

penalties extorted from the persons accused and convicted.

We ought never to have adopted it. The 39th section of the

new bill abolishes these moieties. The system of bribing

Juno 22, 1872.] THE CHROXICLH SI 5

infopmera tends to perpetuate the unprincipled greed of

blaoidiiailers and detectives, v/\io, witli the stealtliy cunning

of tiieir class malce gain by the terrors of oflice, and mltle

with pliant delinquents on easy terms.

Another of these improvements is the admission of ship-

building materi'ils free of duty. One of the grandest

national struggles of the present age will perhaps be for

supremacy on the sea. Formerly Holland had this suprem-

acy, and Portugal. Then the sceptre passed to England.

Afterward it seemed to be divided between England and

ourselves. Germany now claims its share, and with

England earns from us some 80 millions a year for services

in carrying on our foreign commerce. Germany and

England are crowding us off the seas because we cannot

build ships and will not buy them. Now if we had ship-

building materials free of tariflf, say some worthy men, weshall be able to build ships cheaper and to compete with

foreign builders. Congress believing this has taken off the

duty. With a fatality which would be ludicrous else-

where, but in a solemn instrument of government is far

worse, Congress lays its ban upon vessels built with duty-

free materials, so far at least as to forbid their use in the

coasting trade. This virtually restricts the freedom from

customs duties to vessels too large to be used for coasting

traffic. It is another of those curious anomalies, in which

the bill is more prolific than almost any other revenue bill

on the statute book.

The public regard with favor the provision about savings

banks, which relieves them of part of their taxes. These

institutions like other banks pay interest on their deposits.

When the law was first passed an exempt'on was granted

from all taxation on deposits below 1.300. This exemption

was subsequently enlarged to $500, It is now extended to

deposits of less than 12,000. Savings banks ought to be

subjected to no such burden as a tax on their deposits. The

remission so far as it goes is good. But like o»her good

things in the bill it embodies a principle which Congress

was fearful of pushing too far, and, therefore, dared not

push far enough to make it of much practical use.

CO-OPERATION AND THE WORKMEN'S STRIKE.

Seventy thousand men are said to be on strike in this

city alone ; and for the first time in the annals of strikes

there has been no mention as yet of the talismanic word

"co-operation," which has heretofore been so freely offered

in such struggles as an unfailing panacea. If the men will

not work for iheir employers, why do they not make some

movement towards work for themselves? They say they

have a million of dollars to spend in sustaining their fight

against iheir masters. If so, why not use the capital pro-

ductively instead of throwing it away ? We do not now

propose to discuss this question, however. We only raise

it to note the singular anomaly that till now co-operation

does not seem to have been once mentioned. Many weeks

have passed away in idleness. Meetings, processions, reports,

committees innumerable have consumed the workmen's

time, but no voice has been raised for co-operative produc-

tion. In this respect, as well as by its wide concert of

action, and in the rapidity of its spread from one trade to

another and from one city and country to another, the

existing strike differs so much Irom similar events in the

past, that it scarcely setms to have originated with the

same men, and it is on this account perhaps all the more dan-

gerous and to be feared. An organized army of seventy

thousand idle men, banded together for a common purposei

in a single oiiy, are formidable enough, whatever may be

their prospects of ultimate victory in the fight they hdve

begun.

Thia week hu been an eventful one to the operative

strikers on both sides of the Atlantic. Emboldened by ibe

success achieved here in the building trades twenty thoueand

workmen in London ventured upon a like stiuggle, but with

less auspicious results, as they were instantly deprived of

their work. The masters accepted their ohallengn and die-

charged them every one. This we take to be the raeaninf

of the brief cable telegrams from London to the Associated

Press, on Thursday, stating that "a lock-out w«s begun bjr

the builders, and that 20,000 journeymen were thrown out

of employment." The strikers here and elsewhere have

been used to boast of their numbers, of the union among

the different trades, of the international organization in

various countries, and of the vast sums of money which

they have accumulated for sustaining themselves In the

event of a long strike. They will perhaps find that num-

bers may be a source of weakness rather than of strength*

and that if each man be a pensioner on the general fund,

instead of a contributor to it, the most magnificent resources

will soon melt away like snow in springtime. The seventy

thousand New York artificers on strike would earn, when at

work, nearly a million dollars a week in wages. By volun-

tary idleness Ihey inflict on themselves a loss of a million a

week, besides inflicting much heavier losses on the com-

munity.

Our striking operators appear to be waking up to thle

fact, which has long been apparent to everybody else. To

do the men justice, they have intelligence enough to see

their own interest. To-day, if they could be liberated from

the trammels of their so-called union and from the power of

a few selfish, fanatical leaders, thousands of workmen would

probably return to their labor and begin once more to earn

an honest living. For with the instinct of all true workers

they are heartily tired of the perils and losses of enforced

idleness, and dissensions already appear in their ranks. Thie

ia abundantly evidenced by the reports of the daily meet-

ings in the newspapers, and by the secrecy with which the

deliberations of the leaders are just beginning to be en-

shrouded.

Another new feature in this week's operations is a closrv

union among the employers. If the men claim a right to

unite for general protecHon against their masters, why, say

the masters, should not we unite for mutual protection

against our men 1 To give effect to this theory, a large

meeting was held on Tuesday evening, and delegates from

almost every manufacture in this city were there. The

council numbered about 300, represeniing from 40,000 to

45,000 workmen. After discussion, several oonclusione

were arrived at; first, it was resolvtd that wages should be

paid by the hour instead of by the day as heretofore

;

secondly, no man shall be employed who will not work ten

hours a day ; and thirdly, that " any workman guilty of any

act looking to the arbitrary establishment of relations

between the employer and employed " shall be discharged

at once and refused further employment.

Tiiese resolutions are an inevitable result of the strike.

The Legislature of this Slate have been foolish enough to

pass s law making eight hours a day's work when no

special contract was made. It is doubted whether the

Legislature did not herein exceed its constitutional power*.

Certainly there is no precedent for such an enactment. But

till legally set aside or repealed it is the law of the land, and

the strikers not only pretend to consider it as a mandatory

law compelling manufacturers to run their machinery eight

hours only, and forbidding them to keep men at work for

longer daily term than eight hours, but they erect them-

selves into a sort of vigilance committee to control the

ro»st«r» and to enforce the new construction of the Uw,

r> 818 THE CHEONICUE. [June 22, 1872.

Against this vigilance committee these resolutions direct

their force, and if sustained they will soou put a stop to the

work of that irrepressible busy organization, by dispersing

its members and rendering them unable to get steady wasjes

or settled work here. But the question is can the masters

adhere to this policy, and ought it to be maintained'?

On this point there is much discussion and some confu-

sion of thought. If a freeman ha? a right, as is self-evident,

1o sell his labor on his own terms, anj' number of freemen

have the SRmc common right, and they may combine to

obtain, by legal methods, those just riglits. To prevent

such lawful combinations is lyranny on the part of the em-

ployer. Now, as strikes are forbidden by no law of the

State or of the United States, are rot strikes a lawful means

to a lawful end ? Such is, in brief, the argument continually

used in defence of the strikers, both by themselves and by

intelligent thinkers who do not wholly sympathize with

them.

There is, however, this fatal obj<:ction, that it does not ac-

cord with the facts. Suppose the strikers have the rights they

claim, they have no right to threaten or interfere with the

freedom of other men. But in carrying out this strike they

use threats and even violence. They are not content with

peaceably combining for the lawful object of selling their

own labjr. It is notorious tliat ttiey use intimidation toward

their fellow-workmen, forbid them from laboring more Ihan

eight hours a daj , and seek to control and render less produc-

tive the costly machinery belonging to their masters, thus

robbing them of a part of the use of their capital. If the

strikers could carry their will, the machinery of the whole

country would produce one fifth l^ss than heretofore. One-

filth of the whole capital of the nation so invested would be

virtually annihilated at a blow. The demand of the strikers

involves no p tfy claim on the part of one man, or a dozen

men, to vindicate just rights. It is a war of a faction

against the material grosvih of the community, and an

attempt to derange and overthrow the organization of labor.

For this object 70,000 men to day are united in New York

and their aim is to control their misters and not simply

sell their labor for an equitable just pace.

Some notable facts in s-upport of this view have been pub-

lished lately by the New York Times. We may cite, for

example, the evidence of M-. John Roach, of tlje MorganIron Works in this city. Ii is suggestive in many other

points of view be ides the one for which we here quote it

:

Havingr heard that certain of our city merchants intended tohave some Bteamships, to ply between this city aud a foreign port,built on the Clyde, Mr. Boach says he waited upon the promotersof the Bclieme and proposed to build the ships, Hnd furnish themachinery, for the same price as tbe Scotch builders. He euc-cetded in havinjr his offer accepted, and a contract was enteredinto for the construction of tbe vessels, to lie built on time, sub-ject to heavy penalties. He invested larpe sums in the purchaseof the most approved and lajor-saving machinery, and trustinjrto the skill of American workmen he hoped to turn <iui, as good

We have no prejudice against the workmen. They have

equal rights, which we are quite ready to defend. In view

of the whole case, however, there is no difficulty in deciding

whether their eight-hour strike can permanently succeed or

ought to succeed. Its final resu't can only be to impoverish

the men, to sour their minds, to alienate the sympathy of

the public, to break up those bonds of union and community

of interest which have always been reciprocally recognized

in this country more than abroad. If the leaders of the

strike meant to make an honest use of the funds they pre-

tend to control for the benefit of the workingmen, why do

they not propose to invest them in co-operative manufacto-

ries instead of wasting them in a vain, irritating fight

against powers too strong to be overcome and against

national interests too valuable to be surrendered?

GERMANY AND THE FRENCH INDEMNITY.

a ship as ever floated on the Clyde. It will be rememberedtbatthe late of labor in this city is forty per cent more than in Glas-gow. His arrangements were all completed when his pattern-makers struck lor the eight-hour movement. He called themtogether and offered to give tbem what they wanted, it he couldnot convince them it would be detrimental to their inter-ests. Eight hours, he said, would take twenty per cent of tbetime in wbick they had to perform the work

; he would makeBuch reasonable concessions as would not interfere with his con-tract. The men demaniled an advance of ten per cent. Mr.Roach met the request by ofTeriug hve. The boiltrmakers, ma-chinists, and blac> smiths accepted the offer, took the money, audthen—left. On the laith of this compromise Mr. Roach had aship put on the Blocks. He then was compelled to yive tbe work-men the ten per cent ; they returned to work for a short t.nie,knocked the heads oft' the bolts of the vessel, and agaiu left.

'Ihisishix experience of tbe strike. The wl'ole quesiion, hesaid, resolves itselt into this—whether the capital of the nationshall be reduced twenty per cent. Is the capital in labor,machinery, building, and fixtures to be reduced by an unreason-able and useless demand twenty per cent below the value it badlast month 1 This would draw more from the productive powerof the nation than aid the whole armies, North and South,engaged in the rebellion.

Tha numerous class of persons who have persisted in a

sanguine view of French resources, will be glad to see the

announcement made by telegraph that France has just com-

pleted arrangements for the final payment of the indemnity

and the evaci-ation of her territory by the German troops

The London Times a few months ago gave special pDin-

inence to some communications on this French indemnity

from a gentleman of thij " highest financial standing " in

London. According to this eminent authority, Franct" was to

be almo-t bankrupt befire the indemnity was paid, England

would be Sdiiously troubled and her finances convulsed by

the blinking arrangements needful to clear the payments, and

the commerce of the whole world was to be ihreatened with

a series of shocks suoh as would not be easy to avert. This

opinion was widely prevalent ; but its opponents, though lew

in Europe, were more numerous here. And now it turns

out that they are right. The first payment of the sum due

to Germany is to be made by the 15th February, 1873,

and consists of one milliard of francs, or §200,000,000.

Ths second payment, also of one milliard, is to be made

before the close of 1873, and the third milliard during 1874.

The departments of Marne and Haut-Marne are to be

evacuated on the paymeiit of the first half milliard, and the

present army of occupation is to be reduced by one-lhird

after each milliard paid. It is a significant commentary

on the predictions above alluded to that although the French

Government is now negotiating bills of exchange for $100,-

000,000, the bullion in the. Bank of England has risen

during the week £750,000. The directors have quite

recovered from their recent fright, they have taken probably

some other measures to increase their gold reserves, and the

rate of discount is down again to 3 per cent. Never before

except during our civil war have such prodigious payments

been made by any nation with so little apparent disturb-

ance of the financial equilibrium, both of the country and

its neighbors. Like a good ship heavily laden, France has

so far borne the strain admirably, and .so we hope she will

complete the voyage.

Let us examine for a moment how vast the sums are

which she has paid or will have to raise in the future.

It is commonly supposed that this amount is merely the five

milliards, or $1,000,000,000. Prodigious as is this sum as

the cost of a four months campaign, it is not all. Fromthe bill jusi introduced into the Reichsraih lor the distribu-

tion of the indemnity money, we learn that there is bes'des

t'lis the ransom of Paris, the interest on unpaid instalments,

."nd the taxes and contributions levied in Fiance, in excess

of disbursements. The who!e sum will thus stand as fol-

lows :

Germany $170,000,000 have already been spent uh follows:

Total already spent $176,100,000

Besides this ?um 45 millions of dollars are claimed by

the various German governmen's on account of the ex-

penses of the war, 12J millions are to be spint in tortifying

Alsace and Lorraine, and 2^ millions are appropriated for

the construction of a military aca'lemy, cadet b.trracks, and

other military buildings in Berlin. These sums toge-

ther mike 00 millions of dollars, and with the 170 millions

already spent, give a totiil of 230 millions. The aggregate

of the indnmnity money being 1,140 millions, thsre will be

$900,000,000 to be appropriated (>y fu'ure legislation, or to

be divided in cash among the individual stales of the

German Empire.

The probable stimulus lobe given by'such vast amounts of

floating capital in a country formerly so meagre .in its

supply of such capiti'l, and the effect of so violent

on inundation spread over the domain of banking, manufac-

tures, commerce and agricultural industry offers several

problems, financial and ptiilosophic.tl, well worthy ot pro-

found meditation. As to the principle of distribution, it is

not very simple. The Germans love the complex, and they

have adopted it here. Three-fourths of the whole sum are

to be distributed to North Germany, Bavaria, Wurtemberj.,

Baden and South Ilesse, in proportion to the military

preparations of each State during the war. Tha one-fourth

remaining is to be distributed in proportion to the soldiers

supplied by each State. An elaborate calculation as to mei.

and ni'iteriel sho«s that the money will have to be divided

into 132,201,825 parts of which North Germany will take

107,079,125 parts, Bavaria 14,538,825 parts, Wurtemberg

4,345,450 parts, Baden 3,768,450 parts, and South Hesse

1,869,975 parts. An analysis of these figures shows that

of the three-fourtlis allotted to materiel Germany receives

nine-elevenths, and the other States only two.elevenths;

while of the remaining one-fourth, Souih Germany is to

have a larger share proportioned to the respective quota of

men supplied by each.

Such is the official statement, but, as will be observed, it

is wholly silent as to where the rooriCy is, which is reported

as actually on hand. This is a question of great importance

to the money market. Of the aggregate 1,140 millions, the

Germans have still to receive 000 millions, so that they

have already drawn 480 millions In cash and otherwise.

The railroads of Alsace and Lorraine cost the Germans 65

millions, so that there is still $415,000,000 to be accounted

for. Part of this sum is locked up as war treasure, part has

been distributed among the various States, and has been

probably disbursed in the piyment of debts. Still there must

remain a very large sum in the Imperial Treasury, or in

loans which can be speedily called in. Where are these

loans? Are they in bank, or are they lent to private firms

and individual; ? and what are the probabilities of these

loans being distributed ] These are topics on which infor-

mation is anxiousl y sought but at present wholly in vain.

the unexampled sum of 803 millions of d^llart, withoutreckonioe the value of the annexation of Alsace and Lor-raine. No war of modern times hat ever yielded tuoh pro-fits to the invaded nation.

CURRENT T OPICS.Qbrman Emigration to the Umtkd States.—The remark

able increase in emigration from Germany to tbe Uoited Sutes,18 of late beginninar to attract the attention of tlie Berlin govern-ment. Petitions have been freely presented to the Parliamentasking that the licenses of the emigrant agents In Qer nany berevoked, in order that a stop may bo put to their operations andthus prevent the country from being drained of the classea of

labor which are flocking to the United States. Nothing haa yetbeen done, but it is believed that some action will be taken to

regulate the matter. In the coursn of a recent debate in that

boJy, originating in the presentation of petitions of the kind abovementioned, it was stated that, within five ye^rs, fifteen thousandable-bodied laborers had loft Pomerania alone for tlie Unit.-d

States, and that it is now almost impossible to find farm handsenough to work the estates of the landed proprietors. There is

also a very large emigration from Meckleuberg, inclading aboutfour thou.sand men annually whom it is considered very deairablo

;o keep at home ; from other States also complaints come of asimilar character. The reason assigned for the exodus fromPomerania and Mecklenberg is the impossibility of the laboring

classes acquiring a freehold, owing to the system of large estates

being retained in the hands of a few wealthy and noble pro,iriu-

tors ; but this does not entirely explain the movement, since, in

other States where a different system prevails, small proorietors are

selling their lands at a sacrifice in order to obtain the money with

which to emigrate. The main reason for it is, doubtless, found in

the fact that their friends who have come to this country andlocated on the cheap lands of the West have generally realized

the brightest anticiiations of material prosperity, and tbe letters

of these people to their relatives and others at home, are con.

stantly attracting many more. Just now there are probably

other influences operating in the sane direction such as the in-

creased taxation and cost of living there since the Franco Ger-

man war, and the conscription system which mast be a great bur.

den upon any people where it is adopted.

The Tax on Tobacco in Bond.—Congress having done muchto injuru the tobacco trade by placing a prohi jitory tax up<m all

retail transactions in leaf, the Revenae office in Washingtonseems to have assumed tho unpleasant duty of carrying out the

spirit of the act by interpreting tho law in a manner most un-

favorable to those whom it affects. In the new tax and tariff

bill the imposts upon tobacco after July 1 is fixed at 20 cents per

pound, instead of 16 and 83 cents; also providing that "all

tobacco and snuff now stored in any except bonded warehouses

shall, on and after July 1, 1873, be subject to the same tax as is

provided by this act." This raised the question as to the amount

for which tobacco stored in bonded warehousea in the interval

between June and July 1 was taxable. The opinion of the

trade was that from and after July 1, at which time the law

takes effect, such tobacco would be entitled to tbe benefit of tbe

reduced rote, since the Government has no anibority for the col-

lection of the old tax upon tobacco after July 1. The matter was

referred to Commissioner Douglas, however, and a decision haa

been rendered to the effect that all tobacco bonded between June

6 and July 1, and withdrawn after the new law go«e into effect,

must pay the old tax of thirty-two and sixteen centa. Mr. Doa;-

las claims that this deciaion is based upon the exact wording of

the bill, which provides that " all tobacco and snuff noie stored,"

&c.; but it cannot be regarded aa a fair and equitable interpreta-

tion. The trade claim that great injustice baa been done them by

Commissioner was not made known until more than a week after

the passage o£ the act, many thousands of pounds of tobacco were

sent to warshouse which otherwise would have been held back

until ihe Ist of July. The only way in which the decinion can

be circumvented, is for the owners of the tobacco " now " in hand

to send it to the nearest foreign port and bring it back again,

and as this has been suggested, the only effect of the Commis-

sioners decision will be to impose considerable unnecessary

expense and trouble upon the trade without beneSt to the

London. Saturday, Juno 8.

Although money in the open market has been obtainable at

one-half per cent, beneath the Bank rate, the directors of theB.ink of England have made no change in the official minimumA very favorable Bank return was looked forward to, but it wasless so than had been expected. The statement shows, indeed,

an increase o! nearly one million sterling in the stock of bullion .

but as there is an increase of about £.jOO,000 in the note circula-'

lation, the increase in the reserve is smaller than had been antici-

pated. The item of other securities, however, has attracted mostattention. It was expected that, as the applications for discount

at the Bank were understood to have been so few, in consequenceof the easy tone of the open market, there would have been alarge diminution under this head. But such has not been the

case, a small increase in the amount of bills under discount being

apparent. This is evidently caused by the large amount of

inland paper wliich is in circulation caused by the activity of our

trade. Frum all the manufacturing centres the trade accounts

continue very satisfactory, there being no decrease of animation

in any department. The bills in circulation are therefore very

numerous, and an impression is conceived in some quarters that

a further reduction in the Bauk rate of discount next week is not

80 certain. The quotations for money are as follows

The variations in the rates of foreign exchange have not been

important. The advance in New York exchange on London to

109 j, however, has attratte 1 considerable attention, and the

expectation of a large importation of specie from New Yorkduring the next two months has tended very materially to pro-

duce ease in our money market. There is scarcely any demandfor gold for export, and as large quantities will be received dur

ing the next fortnight, both from the United States and Australia

a large accumulation at the Bank is expected. Tlie silvtT murket

are entertaiued of a wet summer. It is early yet to become

alarmed ; but asHhe hay harvest has been consumed in early

districts, dry days and warmer nights are needed. This week,

the days have been wot and the nights cold, and consequently^

vegetation has not made much progress. A week of warm, dry

weather would add greatly to the yield of grass, which already

promises to be abundant ; but at present there seems to be no

chance of the hay harvest becomin)!; general even in the Southern

coonties. So far as wheat is concerned, it is making very little

progress. For that crop, especially, dry weather is needed, as it

thrives better in dry than in wet Si'asons. The state of the wea-

ther has produced considerable firmness in the wheat trade, but

millers are still unwilling to operate largely. The tendency of

prices, however, is upward, and should the present weather con-

tinue, a substantial advance is likely to take place. On the Con-

tinent, the trade has been firmer. At Paris, the changeable wea-

ther causing as it does a delay in the harvest, (a circumstance

which, in the present state of supplies in France is calculated to

have an important effect upon the trade) has induced millers to

operate more freely, and higher prices have consequently been

obtained. At Bautzic, produce on the spot, has sold more readily,

at extreme rates. In th^outh of Franco and in North Italy, the

crops have been suffering from heavy rains and floods ; but in the

south of Russia, the crops, which had been partially injured by

hot southerly winds, had improved under the influence of rain.

The following statement shows the imports and exports of

grain and flour into and from the United Kingdom since harvest^

viz., from Aug. 26 to June 1, compared with the corresponding

period in the three previous seasons :

Since Tuesday the business transacted in this market has been below tha

Srerace extent The activity of the Liverpool cotton market, w-tth the hsrd-

anlni tendency of prices for the raw material has Btrenglheued qnotatlims,

hot sellers iicnorally have not been enabled to obuin any advance on last

week's rates. I'roducers having latterly elTecled some considerable cloaram ea,

are not disoosed to make any concession lu price. In some quarters the

belief is entertained that, owing to the dlscouracing position of our Eastern

markets the present high rates cannot ion,' be maintained. To-day « busli.css

has been quiet, with small business offering In most departments. For ship-

ping yarns extreme rates are demanded, but the inquiry Is inactive, and to

elftict sales spinners would have to submit to a slight reduction. The same

remark will ai)ply to homo trade yarns. Ooods have moved slowly, and In a

few Insunces are easier to buy. Prlntinj cloths are lu small request, and

prices are 8c.arcely so firm, tjhlrtlngs soliable f','

prices required . In other makes of cloth there has not been much Inquiry,

though prices have undergone no appreciable change. At the close quota-

—Poor's Railroad Manual for 1872-'73.—A few hundred copiesof the new edition of the Manual for the present year will beready to-day (Saturday, June 22,) at the office of Messrs. H. V. &H. W. Poor, 68 Broadway. The supply of copies for general dis-

tribution will be ready early next week.

—Following close upon the completion of the Pacific Railroaicomes the work of shortening the route between the Atlantic andPacific coasts. Among tiie plans laid out for this purpose is theMidland Pacific Railway, running from Nebraska City, Nebraska,nortliwest to (irand Island on the Union Pacific Railroad, andalready completed and in operation from its eastern terminus toLincoln, the capitol of the State. This road is part of a grandscheme now being rapidly pushed forward, which includes thebuilding of about 000 miles of road, and the shortening of the dis-tance between New York and San Francisco about 150 miles, tobe completed in about a year from this time. That part of theroad now in operation runs through a very populous and fertile

part of Nebraska, and is already reporting net earnings morethan sufficient to pay the interest on its debt. First mortgagebonds limited to $18,333 per mile of finished road, bearing sevenper cent gold interest, free of United States tax, are offered byMessrs. Turner Brothers, Bankers and Financial Agents of theCompany, 14 Nassau street.

—The attention of our readers is directed to the card andtime tables of the New Jersey Southern Railroad, whichwill be found in our advertising columns. This is now thegreat popular route to Long Branch, aa the company has pur-

chased the magnificent steamers Plymouth Rock and JesseHoyt, of the Narragansett Steamboat Company, running toSandy Hook, and the route is entirely under their control, Mr.G. W. Bentley being the manager. On Wednesday, June 30,the boat now leaving New York at 5. P M. will change to 4:4,5'

and the trains connecting with boat from New York at 4 P. M.'and from Long Branch at 7:50 A. M., will be express, and notstop at way stations. There will be a special train, howeverahead of the morning express from Long Branch, and followingthe afternoon express from New York, to accommodate waytravel. Extraordinary facilities will be furnished for attendingthe approaching races.

—Mr. A. C. Kaufman, Banker, Charleston, S. C, offers to invest-ors the first mortgage railway bonds of the North Eastern, S. C.eight per cents ; Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta sevens ; Savan-nah and Charleston sevens and sixes, and the South Carolinarailroad sevens. The annual reports of most of these companieshave been published in the Chhonicle, showing their goodfinancial condition. Mr. Kaufman states that the debt on theseroads to the mile is respectively $8,000, $10,000 $10,000, and$12,000, and that their securities are inferior to none in theUnited States, and may be ranked first-class, as the roads uponwhich they are issued are in prime condition, the coupons aremet promptly, the business on each is largo and increasing, andthe bonds are in every respect unexceptionable, ilr. Kaufmanwill furnish any information in reference to them, and his state-menia, we believe, can be implicitly relied upon.—The London Assurance Corporation, which is represented inNew York by Messrs. Frame, Hare cSi Lockwood, 88 Wall streetand 202 Broadway, has its " Accumulated Gold Funds" of$13,234,420, and " Fire Assets" in gold of $5,004,665. The com-pany is 1.52 years old, and have during all that time sustained agood reputation. Its local committee in New York embraces thenames of gentlemen connected with some of the most prominentbusiness firms of the city, as will appear by reference to the com-pany's notice under " Banking and Financial" on another page.Since the Chicago fire the attention of our merchants, railroad menand bankers has been turned towards the strong English Insur-ance Companies more decidedly than ever before, and we believetheir business in the United States is largely on the increase.—The first mortgage sinking fund seven per cent, gold bonds

of the Canada Southern Railroad Company have met with muchfavor since they were placed on this market a few weeks ago.Of the entire $5,1100,000 offered, but little more than one-half re-mains unsold. The old and respected banking house of Winsiow,Lanier & Co., who have nearly completed the sale of $8,000,000Grand Rapids and Indiana Railroad bonds, having investigatedthoroughly the enterjirise and the bonds, have become associatedwith Messrs. Leonard. Sheldon & Foster aa agents for theirsale. They recommend the bonds as an undoubted security.The advantages of the road are set forth in the advertisement.The Canada Southern forms the eastern link of the new line be-tween Chicago and Bufl'alo, the increasing business west of Chicagoopening the way for additional lines to New York.—The attention of the readers of the Chronicle is directed to

the card, in another column, of Messrs. William Butcher & Co.,manufacturers of steel, &c., f^ewistown. Pa., represented in NewYork by William Toothe, Esq., genenll agent, 59 John street.

The inonejr market.—The rates for money on call loans havecontinued to be easy thougbout the week at 3(S^ per cent, thelower rate being rather an exception, to the best clasa of bor-

rowers with government bonds as collateral.

Tbe last bank statement showed no very large increase in

deposits or legal tenders, and a slight loss In the excess abovelegal reserve, thus showing that there was little cause for further

decline in the rates for money, in conseciuence of any additional

accumulation of funds at this centre. One principal caase lor

easy money at the present time is found in the decreased demandarising from the usual summer dullness, particularly in stock

speculation, which is now quite noticeable in the city.

So far as the bank movement is concerned, however, the pres-

ent condition of the market would seem ti> point, aa we havebefore remarked, to an early improvement in rates of interest,

soon after the commencement of fall trade and the retarn of lead-

ing stock operators to New York.The Bank of England rate was put down to 3 per cent this

week, specie having increased £759,000.

Specie in the Bank of France increased 4.000,000 francs.

In the last statement of our aHi<orinted city bank.", June 1.5,

the total liabilities stood at $'356,5 14,CiOO and t'lie total reserve at

$75,734,300, being $11 ,5»5,5.'>0 in excess of 25 t>er cent of the

liabilities—a decrease of $157,575 from the pn-vions week.The following statement shows tbe changes from previous week

For commercial and bankers' ]>aper of tlie beet class there is a

good demand, and prime CiO days' hotts have been sold aa low aa

5i(f^ per cent. On single naiiies there is a little wider range, aa

quoted in the classification below, sliliough it is well known that

some unindorsed paper of the very best class, or "gilt edged." is

frequently sold as low as anything In the market. The prefer-

ence is still for short date paper.

L'nlted StaCea Bonds.—The amount of business in Govern-

ments has been (piite limited, and with the small demand, pricee

have fallen off i to # per cent. Prices in 1/indnn are also a free

tion lower. There are no features in the market lieyond that of an

exceedingly small and quirt busineaa which we liavo just refer-

State and Railroad Bonds.—Southern State boncla haveshown more activity on several specialties, particularly in SouthCarolinas, Arkansas bonds issued to Arkansas Central Railroad,

and in Tennessees. Transactions in South Carolina bonds havebeen large and prices have declined. Holders of the bonds,coupons or stock of the State of South Carolina, are informed bypublished notice, that the Commercial Warehouse Co., 29 Wil-liam St., New York, will receive bonds for registration by June22d, according to the act of the general assembly, relating to thebonds of SouthCarolina, approved the 13th day of March, 1873.

The 10th section of saiij act being as follows

;

Section 10 —The Commercial Warehouse Company, in the city of NewYork, and the Carolina National Bank, in the city of Columbia, S. C, arehereby declared to be authorized places for the registration of the bonds, cou-pons or stock of the State of South Carolina, and they are authorized, on thepassage of this act, to immediately advertise in one or two of the principalpapers in each of the cities of New York. Columbia and Charleston, to theholders of all the bonds, coupons or stock of the State of South Carolina, thenecessity of registering thiiir oond-*. coupons or stocks at one of the above au-thorized places of registry. In the registration of said bonds, coupons orstocks, the number and denomination of each bond, coupon or certificate ofstock, the act under which it was issued, and the name of the person, associa-tion, corporation or firm presenting the same shall be recorded, and the timeand place of registration shall be indorsed upon said bonds, coupons or stocks,60 that the same bonds, coupons or stocks may not be presented at more thanone place of registration. Itshall be the duty of said Commercial WarehouseCompany, in the city of New York, and the Carolina National Bank, in thecity of Columbia, 8. C, to publish in the cities of New York, Charleston andColumbia, quarterly statements of the whole amount of bonds, coupons orstocks registered by them, the number, denomination, and the act under whichthey have been issued. The State treasurer and the financial agent of theState, in the city of New York, shall not pay interest on said bonds or slocksuntil they have been registered according to the requirements of this act.

The Stock Exchange committee have ordered that deliveries ofSouth Carolinas be continued in accordance with circular of Dec.8, 1871, until Sept 1, 1873, instead of July 1, 1873. This is inorder to give holders time to register, as above stated.

In Tennessee bonds there has been a sharp upward turn inprices, sales of both classes having been made at 75, which is 1|per cent higher than the best price previously made this year.The rise is reported to have been based chiefly upon the " short

"

interest in the market, which had grown to an important extent.The Governing Committee of Stock Exchange have ordered

that the call of Virginia registered old bonds and bonds of 1866and 1867 be discontinued.The New York State Canal Board has postponed the recep-

tion and opening of proposals for the canal loan until the 34thinst.; the Board has resolved to pay the enlargement debt andinterest in coin, and suppose that the bids already sent in weremade on the supposition that these payments were to be made inlegal tenders.

Railroad bonds have not been active, though prices are gen-erally well maintained. Central Pacific gold sixes sold at 105Jon Thursday. The principal dealers in bonds anticipate a largelyincreased business early in July.

' Tnis l8 the price bid, no sate was made at the Board.Railroad and MiscellancouH Stofks.—The stock market

has been somewhat irregular, and decidedly dull on tlie generallist. Erie has been the principal feature of the market, and hasmade a further material decline, touching 51f to-day and rallyingto 521 at the close. It will be observed that the price has nowdeclined to a point that would enable Mr. Drew to make a hand-some profit on his famous contract, delivering the stock at 55 ; it

has not been ascertained, however, that the contract is yet settled.The principal cause of the decline in Erie seems to be found intlie simple fact that an immense quantity of the stock was pur-chased in London at prices far beyond its real value, and wlietherthe immediate cause of this decline arises from the sales made bythe outside public there, or from the embarrassments of specu-lators, is a matter of little consequence. There is no market forthe return of the stock to this country at high pri&s, and its

course is therefore downward. Notwithstanding the relativelvsmall amount of business transacted, and the absence of manVoperators, prices of other stocks close nearly the same as lastweek, and at the close were firmer and somewhat higher than onprevious days, the heaviest feeling having been shown on Tues-day.

Tlie Gold Marfcet.—Gold has declined from | to i per cent,

during the week. There has apparently been very little specula-tive influence at work in the market in any direction, some lead-

ing operators have been absent, and the decrease in exports anddecline in the Bank of England rate, have all bee n favorable tolower prices. There are occasional reports that at tempts will bemade to make cash-gold scarce again this season, for the purposeof obtaining high rates for its use, but there are, as yet, no p roofsthat such attempts will be made. No definite announcement is

yet made of the pre-payment of July interest by the government.The rates paid for carrying to day were 3, 3i, 3, 3A and 4 per cent.

At the Treasury sale of $3,000,000 on Thursday the bids amountedto $3,83.5,000 between 113 and 113 47. Customs receipts for theweek amount to $1,625,000.The following table will show the course of the gold premium

Foreign Exfliange._The tendency of exchange has beentowards easier rates. The demand for bills has been only modcrate, while there has been a supjily of some considerable amountsfrom railroad loans—a part of these, we understand, were drawnagainst a Chicago and Northwestern loan, negotiated some monthsago. The decline in Bank of England rate to 3 per cent., andprospect of continued easy money in London, had some effect in

weakening short sight bills. Rates having declined -J this week,the feeling at the close was firmer.

The transactions lor the week at the Custom House and Sub-Treasury have been as follows

826 THE CHUONICLE. [June 22, 1872.

^\}t Eailioajf Moniiox.INVESTMENTS—PRICES OF RAILROAD BONUS IN JULY ANU AUGUST FOR FIVE YEARS, 1S67—1871.

We complete in the following table, our compilation of the highest and lowest prices of all leading railroad

bonds, giving, at present, the months of July and August for five years. Prices in the same shape for

all the other months have been published in the Chronicle, vol. 13, pages 489, 530, G«8, 841 ; and vol. 14, page 186.

In order to make this table of prices more valuable, quotations of the money market in each week of the month

have been added, and also the range of gold. From January 1, 1807, to March 26, 18V0, the prices of railroad

bonds are made Cro n actual daily sales at the Stock Board ; since March 26, 1870, the range of prices is madefrom the quotation bid on each Friday, as printed in the Stock Exchange list and The Chronicle.

[Entered accordinjj to act of Congress, in the year 1878, by William B. Dana & Co., in the office of the Librarian of ConRress, Washington, D. C.l

The branches in Iowa above named are known, renpectlvely.astlio Washington Branch (cost to date |501,00t 17); Dea Moines,Indiannla and Missouri, and Des Moines, Winterset and Soulh-westcrn. On the two latter this company has expended$353,4(11 23, on iron and track laying, in consideration of bondsand a controlling interest in the stock of the local companies,which have prepared the roads for the iron. These roads,situated between the main line and the Burlington and MissouriRiver Kailroad, reaclx important towns and command the trafficof two of tlie richest counties of the State. Of the Chicago andSouthwestern road, fully opened for traffic on October 9, 1871,our readers have been fully informed. The road has been com-pleted, equipped and operated by this company at a cost to it off500,000 in excess of its earnings, which amount lias been takenfrom the earnings of the main line, and charged to Chicago andSouthwestern Kailroad construction account. The traffic returnshave not equalled anticipations, owing, among various causes,chiefly to the want of the bridge and connections at Leavenwoith,short crops on the line, and derangement of its business causedby the Chicago fire, which occurred on the day before the roadwas opened. The prospects both for through and local businessare now such, however, that early returns to the amount of thiscompany's investment in the road are anticipated. The earlyopening of the branch to Atchison, securing connections with theAtchison, T.ipekft and Santa Fe and other roads at that point willbe of great advantage to the line, especially when the Missouri isbridged at that point, which it will be ft the earliest possible day.The ii^rtrrejrate expenditure for construction of branch lines

was 01(i.233 25 on 79 miles, being $11,597 88 per mile.

The percentage of operating expenses to gross earnings thepast year was (exclusive 6f taxes) 48.10, against 53.30 per centthe previous year.

The gross earnings were $5,900,797 38, compared with $6,028,-287—a decrease of $127,.')26 37, or about two per cent. The de-crease was in passenger earnings, amounting to $818,983 04;while there was an increase of $190,100 05 in freight earnings,leavinjf the total decrease as above stated. But, at the same timetliat earnings have thus decreased, operating expenses have de-creased in a still greater ratio, tlio aggregate decrease being $4.55,-

186 20, or about 13 pur cent. This leaves an increase of netearnings of $327,6.'>!t H3. Alonj; with reduction in rates, due to

competition, the oiiief i^uses of diminished earnings have beenthe October tire, the snow blockade on the Union I'acific, and thewant of storage room for corn in ('hicago and the inability ofKasteru roads to move grain.

Atlantic, MlVRlssIppI & Ohio Railroad.—Fujst AnnualKkpobt for the Yeak Ending Sept. 30, 1871.—It is much tobe regretted that the annual report of this important consolidationhas not been published at an earlier date ; but, notwithstanJingthe late period of its publication, the report will be found otvalue in the pajres of The CnnoNlCLE for future reference. TheCompany is under the management of General Wm. Mnhone, asPresident, and its line extends from Norfolk, Va., to CumberlandGap, Ky., 508 miles. Of this, 408 miles, Norfolk to Bristol, Tenn.,is in operation, and 100 miles, Bristol to Cumberland Oap (for-merly known as the Virginia & Kentucky Kailroad), is yet »o bebuilt.

These Companies, in which the State of Virginia was a verylarge stockholder and creditor, were consolidated under herauthority and by the assent of the stockholders, on the followinggeneral terms: The new Company to assume and pay all existingdebts, bonded and floating: (except those due the Slate), to buildthe 100 miles aforesaid, and enlarge the capacity of the 408 milesalready in operation. The State transferred to'lhe new Conipanvthe entire amount of her stock in the lour Companies, say 44,000shares, and all her claims against the same, say $2,000,000, in all,

securities amounting to $6,400,000, for which the new Companyobligates Itself to pay the State $4,000,000, commencinjr in 1885and paying the same by annual installments of $500,000 in Statebonds or money. This obligation does not carry any interestuntil 1880, and thence to maturity carries 5 per cent. The Stateallows the new Company to issue a first mortgage for $15,000,000,taking precedence of her claim in order that the means inav beprovided to pay the existing debts of the old Companies atmaturity, and build the 100 miles of road and improve thatalready in operation. For this purpose $5,500,000 ot the bondshave been set aside in trust to secure the old debts, ijjid thebalance of the Ipan has been negotiated in London, tl^ol^_'h thebonds will only be placed upon the market as tUeir proceeds maybe required. None had been used when the last, fiscal year (forwhich the report is made) closed.

The President's report states : "The formal organization of vourCompany was effected November 13, l^TO, and the administrationof its afTairs, so far as the accounts md returns are involved, wasassumed April 1, 1871. This report, however, is made to embracethe operations and affairs of the line from October 1, 1870."

"The liabilities, assumed on account of the various divisions,existing at th» time we administered upon their estates, are asfollows

:

I. On account of funded debt—1. For Norfolk & Petersburg Division $961,000 002. For Soutli SideDi'isioii l,',55,liio 003. For Virginia & Tennessee Division 2,773,908 1

" The fnnded debt remains unchanged, in so far as it relates tothe amount assumed from the old organizations, save that of pastdue income mortgage bonds, of the Virginia & Tennessee Division,reported as outstanding, there are but $7,000 in the hands of indi-viduals yet to be exchanged, $105,300 of the same having beenpurchased and are held by your Company, and thus constitute aquasi liability, which will have no existence after the entireexlinction of the old organizations and the cancellation of theirliabilities. It is proper also to say that, since the close of thefiscal year, the $4,000 of old second mortgage 1 ends of the Vir-ginia & Tennessee Division have been retired, and nearly half ofthe past due coupons, reported as outstanding, have been fundedin interest bonds under the pre-existing arrangements."The floating debt of your Company has been enlarged by tSie

sum of $390,317 33, mainly for the purchase of additional rollingstock, which has not yet lieen distributed amon< the various divi-sions, making a total of $3,307,393 59, as of date September 30,1871. It is, however, designed to extinguish every liability ofthis character as rapidly as they mature, and at the time ofwriting this report scarcely half of this sum »emains unliquidated.The accomplishment of this object is a mere question of time,since there are now in hand available assets, exclusive of Statestocks and claims, amounting to $1,413,587 34, which could, inthe absence of other resoarces, if necessary, be devoted to thispurpo9j.

" In accordance with the provisions of the ninth section of thecharter, your President and Board of Directors, on the 33d ofDecember. 1870, executed a covenant lor $4,000,000, with theState ot Virginia, for the purchase of ' all the stocks held by theCommonwealth,' and ' all and whatever claims' held by the Statein or against the Norfolk & Petersburg, South Side, Virginia &Tennessee and Virginia & Kentucky Railroad Companies."

" By this transaction with the State of Virginia we are enabledto record a profit and loss balance in your favor of $3,371,130 39,and upon the final absorption of all the stock of the variousorganizations embraced in your Company, yet unsubscribed—theaccomplishment of which cannot be much longer deferred—obli-gations heretofore outstanding against them, to the amount of$1,964,200 39, will lie forever extinguished, to the manifest benefitof every sha-eholder and the credit of the Company, in additionto the possession of 44,069 out of 69,219 shares of capital stock.

" During the fall and winter, surveys for the extension cf yourroad to Cumberland Gap have been prosecuted, and its location isnow being marked out. The completion of this line is measuredby the time in which the execution of the tunnel at the Gap canbe accomplished, a work c mimon to your Company, and that withwhose rails it there proposes to connect; arrangements for theputting to contract and moat energetic prosecution of which willbe raaiio with the Louisville & Nashville Company at an earlyday, and such steps will be taken with reference to the perform-ance of all the work required to be done to effect a junction ofthe two roads at that point as will secure the consummation ofthat event as early as December, 1874.

" Tke inipoitance of this line to every interest concerned in its

operations demands that it shall be opened to traffic at the earliestpracticable moment."

The Denver and Rio Grande RalUvar._-A dispatch fromDenver says ; The track of the Denver and Bio Grande Railwayreached Arkansas valley, at Pueblo, one hundred and twentymiles from Denver, on Tuesday, and government freight is nowpassing over it to New Mexico.New Jersey midland Railroad—The formal transfer of the

New Jersey Midland Railway to tbe New York and Oswego Mid-land Company was consummated at Ellenville, Ulster county, thepresent noithern terminus of the line, on Saturday. June 15. FromEllenville northward there is a break of seventy miles before theline building south from Oswego is reached. This space will bocovered by the next October, it is hoped, when the line will becomplete from Jersey City to Oswego. A party of officers andexcursionists proceeded to Ellenville in the first through train tothat point on Saturday, and the reports relative to the conditionof the road and the country through which it passes are encourag-ing for the prosperity of the new line. The completion of themissing link will give New York city another through line ofrailroad to the lakes, which cannot fail to exercise a favorableinfluence in stimulating our Western trade.

Pblladclplila and Reading Railroad.—The stockholders ofthe Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company held a specialmeeting at the office of the company, S.

A large majority of votes were castin favor of the csnsolidation. Another meeting was held at oneo'clock P. M., and the Port Kennedy Railroad merged into thePhiladelphia and Reading (Company.

The market has been witliout any noteworthy feature duringthe past week. Prices have remained stationary under a mode-rate export and spinning demand. Stocks are now reduced to smalllimits, and yet holders appear willing to let it out to supply thecurrent demand at present high prices, aa crop accounts continuefavorable and Liverpool and Manchester reports have been less

satisfactory. For forward delivery the fluctuations have beenfrequent though slight, with the speculative t me feverish. Thepossibility of a corner is always hanging over the market,making it very sensitive, and hence every slight influencemakes its mark in the quotations. The prices for futures last

reported were (basis low middling) 24|c. for June, 2o|c. forJuly, 25fc. for August, 23fc. for September, SOJc. forOctober, 19Jc. for November, 19Jc. for December. The totalsales of this description for the week are 93,350 bales, includ-ing free on board. For immediate delivery the total salesfoot up this week 8,681 bales, including 3,51)6 for export, 5,072for consumption, 13 for speculation, and none in transit. Ofthe above, 2,595 bales were to arrive. The following are the clog-

We-VTher Reports by Telegraph.—We have had anotherweek of favorable weather in the South. At Galveston they havehad some timely showers ; the plant continues to look well, thefields are clear of weeds, and the crop in every way is developingpromisingly. Our correspondent states that he hears somerumors of caterpillers, but does not attach much importance to

them. At New Orleans they have had rain on two days—thunderstorms—and the plant is in a very satisfactory condition. Ourtelegram from Mobile speaks of rain on three days, not excessive

however, we presume, for it also states that the crop is in a goodcondition, clean, and well fruited. At Montgomery they hadfine showers on one day, and the appearances are that they wereof wide extent ; the fields are clear of weeds, the plant strong andhealthy, and the prospects fine. At Selma it has been warm anddry all the week until to-day; but to-day it is raining. Our cor-

respondents at Columbus state that there is no important changein prospects ; the weather has been warm and dry all the week.

Aqricultlral Department Report op Acre.vge.—Wehave this week received the report of the Agricultural Depart-ment at Washington as to the extent of land put into cotton this

year. We gave our own statement two weeks ago, and are gladto see that Uie returns received at Washington so nearly agreewith our figures. The department report only gives the percentageof increase in each State. 13ut on the basis of the actual acres asgiven by the Agricultural Bureau for 1870 and of the percentage ofincrease and decrease reported by the department since, we haveworked out the following tables

It is a little surprising to see how nearly the result of the Bureau• returns agrees with the statements we have issued : not only do the

totals quite closely correspond this year, but they also did last

Tear. The department, however, through some inadvertance, has

Doth this year and last year made an error in its total percentage.

For instance, it will be seen by the foregoing, that it stated the

total decrease of the whole country last year over 1870, to be 14

to 15 per cent., whereas its own figures worked out as above,

made the decrease only about 13 per cent. Then again, this year

It states the increase over 1871 to be 13 per cent., whereas wefind in the same way that it is only about 13 per cent. There is

one important fact which tlietwo statements develope, and that is

the acreage this season does not esceed, but on the contrary, falls

• very little short of 1870.

Bombay Shipments.—According to our cable dispatch received

to-<'iBy, the shipments from Bombay to Great Britain for the

past week have been 17,000 baies and to the continent,

teles, while the receipts at Bombay, during the same time

have been 26.000 - bales. The movement since the first of

January is as follows. These are the figures of VV. Nicol & Co., of

Bombay, and are for the week ending Thursday, June 20

From the foregoing it would appear that compared with last

fear there is a decrease this year in the week's shipments toUreat

Britain of 21,000 bales, and that the total movement since Jan. 1

now shows a dfcreate in shipments of 03,000 bales over the cor-

are all favorable again.

BRE ADSTUPFSFRIDAY P. M.. Jnne 21, 1872.

There has been a uniform and, in some particulars, a very

decided decline in prices during the past week. Speculative

confidence in flour and wheat has been entirely overturned, and

the export demand for corn has experienced a marked falling off.

Tlie receipts of flour have continued liberal, and latterly there

has been in all gradea a pressure to sell. The accumulations of

stock on the eve of a new crop, the absence of shipping demand,

the intensely hot weather which threatens the soundness of muchof the flour in store, and finally the disruption of the speculative

combination, which held wheat above the relative value of flour

have all combined to increase the offerings on sale at reduced

prices. The lower prices have brought in some demand from

Great Britain, the British Provinces, and the West Indies, but

not enough to impart any steadiness to the market, although the

local trade has somewhat improved. To-day the market was dull

and weak.

Wheat has arrived more freely, and there has been a " break '

in the " corner" at Chicago ; both these events have contributed

to a pressure to sell at this market, and np to last night the de-

cline in Spring wheat from the highest prices of last week was

fully 15c. per bush. At the decline which has taken» place, there

have been some sales for exports, mainly in No. 3 Chicago andMilwaukee at $1 60 @ $1 CO. Winter wheats are also decidedly

lower ; No. 3 Toledo sold yesterday at $1 80, a decline of 25c.

from the highest point this season. The accounts from the grow-

ing crop have been more favorable ; the promise of a fair yield of

Winter wheat being especially noted. Siiil receipts at all points

are comparatively »mall, and no large shipping demand can be

responded to from the present crop. To-day, there was a further

decline, with about 45,000 bush. Spring taken for export in the

range of f 1 58 @ $1 03 for No. 3 Chicago and Milwaukee.

The demand for Indian corn has been much less active, but

receipts having fallen off. both here and at the West, prices have

experienced no material decline. " Steamer " mixed has been

best supported, because it has been less plenty, and steamer

freights were lower ;

" sail " mixed has been in better average

supply, and sail freights have not only been firm, but have

slightly advanced. Ileuce the range of prices for Western mixed

has been reduced, being yesterday 63(aOGc, against 63^69c last

Friday. Large quantities are being stored here and speculative

confidence is reviving. If receipts at the West should perma-

nently fall below two million bushels per week a considerable

advance is looked for. To-day there was but a limited business

Rye has again materially declined;prime Canadian in bond

and State afloat sold at 90c. Barley has become entirely nominal.Oats have further declined 3(@3c. per bushel. The speculative

combination at Chicago has broken up, and there has been a great

pressure to sell at all points. Yesterday, in this market, 50,000

bushels No. 8 Chicajo sold for Inly delivery at 47c. Todaythere were large sales of No. 3 Chicago on the spot at 47ic., butclosing at 47c.

upon. A good many Jobbers can slightly undersell the views of Importen'and in some cases arc doin^ so in order to make sure of a song proflt accrued

voices, but the supply In store lor distribution ninst soon be worked off and then

importers look for a revival of trade again, as It Is generally believed that the

wants of the interior arc not more than one-half supplied. Recent foreign ad-

vices at hand are enconro^ng for holders and taken all in all, the market does

not show any weak points whatever at the moment. Brazils again show a re-

duction of the supply with the accumulation remaining on lund under such

I GROCEBIES.Friday Evekins, Juno 21, 1872,

The strike of laborers at the refineries has consideiably unset.

fl(>d tlie market for sweets, but other groceries have ruled

niilorm in value, with coffee again on the upward turn. Jobbers

have been doing fairly, and the interior distribution is now quite

uniform.

* Includes mau, Ac, reduced to bags. t Also. M.730 mala.

MI70AR.The market for raw since our last lias i<e«o subject to some sudden, though

rather natural cluuges, and a very good business was Uansaclud. Owing to

the strike of the workmen at the reflncries the week opened with an extremely

dull tone current and a belief that business must contlnne slow for eonetime to come. A few refiners, however. Including one or two of Ihe leading

houses, manage to arrange matters so as to continue the production, snd ss

refined sugars advanced sufficient to show an almost clear margin of Ac per

lb. over the cost of raw. a sudden sweep wss made, and in one day over 8,000

hhds were taken, and values at once greatly strenglhened, entirely changing

the front of the market, which with the slow trade had commenced to droop

a little. The grades handled were mostly low fair to good fair reining, as

the samples of these were most easy (o reach. Of grocery stock the sales

have been rather limited, bnt the supply not easily available, and

parcels entirely withdrawn for an advance, in view of (

billty that the increased cost of refined goods would drawattention more closely to clarified sagara, etc The receipts

have been moderate, and though at one time the tendency wasto increase, the accumulation now shows tomethlng of s falling away, sndmost of the really desirable parcels are in store weU under control and held

for extreme figures in ail cases. Refined have baan vary booyaal aad sobm-

ont of the strike of the laborers, and holders of supplies were enabled to force

valufes up a@2XC- per lb. The increased cost, Ihowcver, immediately

reduced the demand down to the smallest possible quantities with which

buyers could get along, and also drew out offerings from grocers who hap-

pened to have good stocks and were quite willing to realize a snug proiit,

especially as many could well afford to sell a fraction under reiiners' figures.

The production, however, is reduced 8,000@10,000 bbls. per day, and

though a little unsettled, the market generally favors sellers at the close,

with raws well sustained. Sales of 8,693 hhds. Cuba, 642 hhds. Porto Rico,

ISO hhds. various grades, and 6,015 boxes Havana.

The market for foreign molasses already quite dull enough, has received a

further quieting influence in the strike of the workmen at the refineries, andbusiness was at times almost at a =tand. A moderate call prevailed for choice

grocery stock, and, if offered cheap, high-testing boiling cargoes would betaken and laid away for future use, but refiners naturally were not anxious,

and refused to purchase witli any freedom until they could obtain some idea

when and to what 'xtent the production could be resumed. The supplies in

the meantime have increased but moderately, and importers, though willing

to offer at about former figures, have refrained from urging business, and the

general range of quotations remains about as before. Domestic has sold with a

little more freedom, but buyers are not greatly inclined to handle this class ofstock, owing to ihe complete control of the position by holders and the full

prices positively insisted upon. Syrups are scarce, under control, and higher,

with a good trade demand, and considerable speculative inquiry consequentupon the laborers' strike and the probable small production for some time to

come. Sugar-house molasses has not been very active, and prices remainedat about 17@21c. in hhds. and bbls. Sales of 130 hhds. Cuba, 250 hhds, PortoRico, 20 hhds. Barbadoes, and 375 bbls. New Orleans.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.Fbidat, p. M., June 21, 18«.

The market is seldom in a duller or more uninteresting condi

tion than it has been for the past week. Few buyers are found

at this period of the year, the general disposition being to reduce

stocks to the lowest possible amount rather than fill up with

undesirable goods at a time when the demand is constantly dim-

inishing. The retail movement still shows a fair degree of activ-

ity, but the business is of course confined to the few styles of

goods that are especially adapted to summer wear. Dealers are

arranging their stocks preparatory to taking the usual semi-

annual account. From present appearances the result of this will

show a good season's business, although it is possible that in

some classes of domestics business has not been fully up to anti-

cipations. A few failures have occurred in different sections of

the country, but we learn of no very serious ones of late, and col.

lections generally seem to be coming forward with a fair degree

of promptness.

Domestic Cotton Goods.—The market for cotton fabrics has

been for the most part undisturbed during the past week. Brown :

sheetings'and shirtings have undergone partial revisions to equal-j

ize prices more thoroughly, but the alterations have not been of

particular moment. Bleached goods have shown a little more

weakness and a partial decline has taken place. The general list

is likely to go off i@lc in view of the fact that stocks are accu f

mulating, and holders are in many instances ready to make mod|

erate concessions for the purpose of clearing out supplies. Cot I

ton drills are quiet and weak, although not showing any quotable!

decline. Printing cloths are steady at 8i@8ic, with amoderatf'

Inquiry for spots and considerable excitement in futures. Print,'

are dull at the moment and remain only moderately steady :

unchanged figures. There is a prospect of dark work openius-

a shade higher than the quotations now ruling on light eflecte

Other cotton goods are firm and wholly unchanged.

Domestic Woolen Goods.—There is very little doing in anj

class of woolen goods. Theûnsettled condition of the marke

for the raw material has had a depressing effect upon goods anc

renders buyers less anxious to operate than they ordinarily are a

this season of the year. Some light transactions in low grader

of heavy weights are reported, but the firmness of holders is cal

culated to restrict operations in view of the fact that buyers stil

hold off. Flannels are firm but remain dull. Blankets hav

been sold in limited amounts and rule steady at full prices.

Foreign Goods.—Foreign goods only meet with a slow sal

for qualities sold out by jobbers, with a few occasional movf

ments on the part of speculators on the future. Alpacas, ginj

hams, and colored and especially drab laces are the most i

request, along with grass cloths and other fashionable suitingi

la the linen trade the strikes in the North of Ireland promise t

turn out more serious in point of importance to business tha

was commonly supposed at first. Prices continue just now 1

rule as formerly. At auction the offerings have been great!

curtailed since thejlast three weeks, and business is not likely i

be thoroughly revived until some time in August.

We annex a few particulars of leading articles of domest

manufacture, our prices quoted being those of leading Jobbers :
