as only $5,998,950 have been presented under it,. and as
it expires by its owa limitation on the 23th of Februar,y,
it is not likely, with the present high prices of the short
date Governments, that any more will come in. Hence we
ought probably to deduct 1 millions from the above, which
would leave to be paid out of this year's income from 24
to 25 millions, if the revenues reach the highest estimates
made aijd no taxes are remitted. Yet,. while the latter
point is being discussed by Congress and in face of the
latest hints from "Washington indicating some falling oil
in internal revenue, and while imports are declining, leading
to the belief that customs revenue would also show some
loss, comes in this new call, coupled with the announce-
ment that the Government debt had diminished during
the month 13^ millions. But the most surprising part of
it all is the explanation which the telegraph brings, to the
effect that the Pension Bureau, with its large extra force
of green clerks, cannot put through the claims before it as
rapidly as it did without thsm, and hence there is an
unused balance. What for ?—to be applied next month
to paying pensions ? By no means; but a balance
which in some way becomes an actual gain in surplus
revenues. We should say that this looks very much as if
there were something radically wrong in the Pension
Bureau, or wildly wrong in its estimate of the wants for
the year. Of course, Mr. Folger is in no wise responsible
for this ; if there is to be a surplus of 10 or 15 millions
a month, be acts discreetly in using it- in paying bonds,
but the Government market is one of all others that
should not be subject to speculative or hidden influences.
It is very natural, under the circumstances and condi-
tions we have indicated, and with general business not so
active or remunerative as to afford large profits, that the
Stock speculation should have languished. Operations have
really been confined, as for so many weeks, to the profes-
sional traders, who first indulge in false rumors and free
sales and then adroitly cover their short contracts, thus
keeping the market moderately active, with a kind of see-
saw motion—a very fearful condition for nervous holders
of stocks. The publijj, in the meantime, stands aloof,
having but little money to invest and no money to lose,
even the comparatively low prices to which dividend prop-
erties have been forced not tempting purchases. In fact,
the feature of the market is the gradual decline in prop
erties which have hitherto been regarded as first-class for
investment and among the choicest on the list. To illus-
trate this movement in the investment and leading specu-
lative stocks, we have ssleoted the following, showing the
lowest and highest prices in January and the lowest thus
far this month.

These figures will indicate the prevailing indisposition at
present to tako any stocks, confidence in railroad manage-
ment being generally at a low ebb. As to new roads, we had
a good illustration this week, (at the meeting'of the NewYork Chicago & St. Louis stockholders,) of the visionary
nature of the claims made that these can be built and
equipped for one-half or one-third the figure at which old
roads stand capitalized. When the ''Nickel Plate" line was
first put under way we were told that the $15,000,000 of 6
per 1st mortgage bonds which had been authorized would
suffice to place the concern in first class condition and
ready for the large business which it was sure to have;
consequently it would have to meet an annual charge of
not more than $900,000. Soon, however, we were
apprised that these fifteen millions did not cover the
necessary equipment; hence $4,000,000 7 per cent
equipment bonds were issued, adding $280,000
more to the annual charge. Then, just as it was
announced that the road would be opened for busi-
ness, it transpired that a floating debt of from 2^ to 3
millions had accumulated, which at the lowest estimate
would call for $150,000 more a year. Now this week,
with a new management installed in office, there comes,
along with the statement by Mr. W. K. Vanderbilt that the
Lake Shore Company assumes no obligations on behalf of
the Nickel Plate further than that assumed by any ordin-
ary stockholder, and will not make good deficiencies,
should any arise—along with this comes the announce-
ment that 10 million dollars second mortgage bonds have
been authorized, though this is accompanied by the com-
forting assurance that only 3 millions will be placed on"sale" just now. At the same time we are in-
formed that the road will not be opened for
through passenger business until it has been better
ballasted, and until terminal facilities have been arranged
for at both ends, which has given rise to the edifying
gossip that the Lake Shore will supply these latter at the
modest rental of $420,000 per year. If the terminal
facilities are worth §420,000 a year, then the property
itself must be worth at least $6,000,000, which, added to
the 15 million 1st mortgage bonds, the 4 million equip-
ment bonds, and the 10 million second mortgage bonds
(supposing these latter all issued, and supposing also a
part of the proceeds can be used to wipe out the floating
debt), would give the equivalent of 35 millions debt on a
road only 520 miles in length, calling for an annual
payment of pretty nearly 2^ million dollars. LakeShore's debt (including that of its leased roads) was only
a- trifle over 40 millions at the beginning of 1S82, and
though this amount has been increased some millions
since, yet the company's mileage is over twice as great
as that of the Nickel Plate (it is 1,177 miles), and its total
charge for interest and rentals on this mileage in the cal-
endar year 1882 was less than three millions ($2,990,000),
while, according to the above, that of the Nickel Plate
will be almost 2;^ millions.
The foreign exchange market continues dull but firm.
The complaint is general of a scarcity of commercial bills,
audit appears that those drawn against shipments of
produce are quickly absorbed by the demand from bank-
ers, who are remitting for securities brought out from
Europe or are meeting the inquiry from importers. Thefact that this week there were nearly $800,000 in one lot
of called bonds received from Prance is an indication of
the truth of our remark several times made that Europe is
freely parting with American Government securities, and it
is probable that this movement will continue, for at the
moment more remunerative investments are to be found
in securities nearer home. The same is true also as re-

gards the best American railroad bonds—Ibore is scarcely
any inducemont to the European investor to leave his
money in them, for ho can do as well without coming so far.
Had it not bean for these facts we should have fouuJ
gold coming this way early in January. This is very
evident from the condition of the trade balance. The
December statoraent has not yet been issuad, bat from
certain figures furnished the Secretary of the Treasury by
Mr. Nimmo we are enabled to indicate pretty clearly
what it will show. The exports (as has been foreshadowed
in these columns) reach the largo aggregate of $02,9G(»,-
433—a total that has been but once exceeded in our history,
namely in December, 1830, when the exports reached
$aS,890,2 U. The excess of merchandise exports over
imports is given at $54,577,222 for the six months ended
December 31, from which wo conclude that the excess for
December was $33,429,.')07. As the excess for November
was $25,819,180, we had a balance in our favor in those
two mouths in tho large sura of $59,248,577. Nothing
could illustrate more strikingly than this tho change that
has come over our foreign trade under the influenca of
good crops last season.
Money on call has coutinued in good supply during the
week. Sjme claim that there is a possibility of a sudden
demand upan this centre for funds growing out of the
needs of banks at the whiskey centres, in case Congress
does not act upon the bill now pending for the extension
of the period during which whiskey may remain in bond.
Otherwise there seems to be no prospect of any speedy
change in the condition. The Treasury operations for the
week appear to have resulted in a gain, which is a loss to
the banks, of $2,353,447. The following shows the
interior movement.

GOLD AN^D SILVER SUPPLY.The pa«t year has been an eventful one in matters
affecting tho movements and position of gold and silrer
in the United States. We refer particularly to the
changes which have been in progress in the relative value
of the two metals, to the reversal of the gold current
between this country and Europe, and to the unsatisfactory
situation of our currency by reason of our largo coinage
of silver dollars. These features, together with the
decreasing gold production, are all suHjects of serious
import to tho Uaited States.
On the latter point, we have this week Mr. Valen-
tine's usual compilation, which brings down the pro-
duction of tho precious metals in the States and Territories
west of the Missouri River (including British Columbia
and receipts in San Francisco by express from the west
coast of Mexico) to the 31st of Dacember. According to
his statement the gold production has been, during the
twe'v.1 months, $30,193,355, the silver production
$50,155,288; copper $1,055,037, lead $8,008,155
—
making a total gross result of $92,411,835. The Director
of the Mint neglected in his report of Dacember Ist to
Congress to give his usual compilation for the fiscal year
for iho whole country, but stated simply that it may bo
approximately estimated at $31,500,000 for gold and
$44,700,000 for silver. Mr. Valentine's figures for the
calendar year are as follows.

These returns, prepared with so much care by Mr. Val-
entine, are the only indication we have as yet of the year's
product. Undoubtedly they furnish a close approxima-
tion to the actual result. Mr. Burchard, the Director of
the Mint, writes us that he expects to be able to make up
a statement within two or-three months covering the same
year. When that appears, its totals, we suppose, are
Jikelj to be a little in excess of the foregoing, as there has
always been some such difference between the two reports.
For instance, the Mint gold total for the calendar year
1881 was $34,700,000, against the above .$30,653,959 of
Mr. Valentine. "We presume this disagreement is to be
aoooanted for (1) on the supposition that a greater propor-
tion of gold is secured on refining the silver and lead
fcolLion of Mr. Valentine's statement than his estimate
allows, and (2) on the fact that the Mint includes States
east of the Missouri, which Mr. Valentine does not pre-
tend to cover.
With regard to the gold yield of countries other than
the United States, there is little that is new to present.
According to the statements of production, Australia
keeps up its contribution quite faithfully, although the
portion which the outside world receives from that source,
as indicated by exports, is less than formerly. The statis-
tical abstract for the colonial possessions of the United
Eangdom gives the approximate export of gold from Aus-
.tralia as follows from 1866 to 1880.

This statement shows an average export during the last
three years of about £4,000,000, whereas the produc-
tion during the same years is given at nearly £6,-
000,000. From Russia there are no late official returns as
to the yield of the mines of that country. The Russian
production seems to flow out of the country in spasms.
In 187G there was a large net export from there, but since
then ite contribution has been small until 1881 as indi-
«ated by the following statement.

Note.—The fleurca in Column 1 for the first ton years are nel exportstaken from the Statistical Abstract for the Colonies added to tlic totalcoinage of the Sydney Mint: for next live years they are the net exportsadded to three-fourths of the coinage of the S.vdney Mint ; from 1872(when the Mellmurne Mint was opened) to 1876 we add to the netexports about IH million pounds sterling for amount kept for circula-tion and consumption. This mode of reacliing production is the same insubstance .is adopted by the Silver Committee of the House of Com-mons in 1876, and seems more rellaljle in result than the gross estimateswhich have been made. For subsequent years we adopt Mr. Burchard'a(Director of U.S. Mint) figures of actual production, the authority forwhich he gives in his report.The figures in Column 2 are (down to and including 1874) the Mint
estimate as sent to the Parliamentary Silver Committee in 1876. Sincetliat date tliey are taken from the .annual Mint report,pi'ho figures in Columns 3 aud 4 (down to and including 1875) are from in-tiirmation supplied the Parliamentary Silver Coinniissiou. Since that datetUey arc the figures obtaiued by Mr. Burchard of tlio United States Mint.
COTTON SUPPLY AND CONSUMPTION INEUROPE.
We have obtained from Liverpool all the particu-
lars of Mr. Ellison's annual cotton review for 1882,
issued this week. Knowing the usefulness to the trade
of his facts and estimates, we have had the sub-
stance of his report transmitted to us by cable, covering
not only the takings and consumption since the first of Octo-
ber, but also his views as to the requirements of spinners
and the probable supply up to next October.
Mr. Ellison bases his opinions as to supply on an Ameri-
can crop of 6,800,000 bales. That, as we understand it.
is substantially the result reached ' by the Agricultural
Department, and is probably a fair average of the estimates
prevailing here at the present time. In this connection wewould refer to our overland statement, made up to the 1st
of February, and given in a subsequent column, according to
which it appears that the portion of the crop now in sight
is 5,224,620 bales, against 4,553,827 bales in sight on the
same date of last year. Hence, to make a crop of 6,800,000
bales, we shall have to receive after February first only
093,362 bales more than we did during the same time last
year, and to make a seven million crop we shall . have to
receive 893,302 bales more than during the same months
of 1882.
Starting, then, with an American crop of 6,800,000
bales, Mr. Ellison first deducts for the requirements
of spinners in the United States, 2,263,000 bales, which is
277,000 bales more than the actual consumption of last
year, and therefore, under the circumstances, a very full
FsBRrAiiT 3, 1888.] THE CHUONICLR VIS
estimate. That gives for Europe 4,537,000 bales; and,
after allowing for the total net import into Great Britain
and Continent of this crop up to the first of January,
leaves afloat and for export during the subsequent
weeks of the season from America, the equivalent of 3,180,
.
000 bales of 400 lbs. each. Mr. Ellison next estimates the
arrivals from India after January 1 at 1,150,000 bales of
same weights (400 lbs.); from Egypt 191,000; from Brazil
288,000 bales, and sundries 87,000 bales. On this
basis of supply he reaches the following result as to the
entire movement subsequent to the first of January and
the stocks remaining over on the first of October, 1883.

The above consumption allows—for the 39 weeks to
October 1—a weekly quota of 131,500 bales of 400 lbs.
each, against 132,000 bales, the weekly amount used for
the first three months of the season. The result of it all
is, however, that the stocks at the ports and mills next
October, according to the above, will be very little larger
(the increase being less than 90,000 bales of 406 lbs. each)
than they were last October after our short crop.
As to movement during December, and for the three
months of the year since last October, we have only room
to present the v(s\i&l figures. Spinners' takings, in actual
bales and pounds have been as follows.

According to the above, the average weight of the de-
liveries in Great Britain is 435 pounds per bale to January
1, against 443 pounds per bale during the same time last
season. The Continental deliveries average 432 pounds,
against 440 pounds last year, and for the whole of Europe
the deliveries average 433J pounds per bale, against 44
^
pounds during the same period last season. In the follow-
ing table we give the stock held by the mills, their takings
and their consumption, each month since October 1, all
reduced to bales of 400 pounds each for this season and
last season. It is a very convenient and useful sum mary.

This indicates that spinners have bought so freely tbtt-they have kept up to the full consumption of furnMrweeks, and yet have increased their slocks nearly200,000 bales. But nevertheless stocks are still oMrlj-100,000 bales less than they were January 1, 1882.
The comparison with last year is made more striking by/
bringing together the above totals and adding the averageweekly consumption up to this time for the two years.

COTTON CONSUMPTION AND OVERLANlkMOVEMENT TO FEBRUARY 1.
We bring down our overland movement to-day to the-
first of February. This statement covers the first five, ormore active, months of the crop season.
OVERLAND MOVEMENT TO FEBRUARY 1, 1883.
The gross shipments by rail, both for the month andthe five months ending with February 1, show a decided
increase over last year, the increase during the monthbeing 47,870 bales, and for the five months 4,117 bales.
The net movement is also largely in excess both of last
season and the season of 1880-81, the month's movementbeing this year 59,238 bales, in 1882 13,768 bales, and in,
1881 58,15G bales; for the five months the net difference
in favor of 1882-83 is, as compared with 1881-82, 135,042,
and with 1880-81, 97,401 bales. The details for this year
and the two previous years presented in our usual mannerare as follows.

RECEIPTS, EXPORTS AND SPINNERS' TAKINGS.
In harmony with the oveiiand movement, and as fully
set forth in our weekly statements, the receipts at the
ports show a very substantial increase over the previous
two seasons. "When compared with the figures for 1881-82,
the excess for the five months is seen to be 525,751 bales;
but in comparison with the season of 1880-81, it is only
241,500 bales. Foreign exports are now 840,617 bales
in excess, while port stocks 238,714 bales less, than at the
corresponding time in 1882. ' Below we give our usual

AMOUNT OF CROP NOW IN SIGHT.
In the foregoing we have the number of bales whichhave already been marketed this year and the two previousseasons. An additional fact of interest is the total of thecrop which was in sight on February 1, compared with ayear ago. We reach that point by adding to the above thestocks remaining at that date at the interior towns, less
stock held by them at the beginning of the season. Inthis manner we find the result for the three years onFebruary 1 to be as follows.

THE COTTON GOODS TRADE IN JANCAKY
was of fair aggregate proportions, but buyers continued to
operate cautiously, and thero was not the least tendencytoward speculation. Brown cottons ruled ste.^dy in price,
and fine t'leached goods have slightly appreciated, but col-
ored cottons were somewhat irregular, and lower in somecases. Print cloths were in fair demand, and prices ruledsteady because of the light slocks at the centres of pro-duction.

FINANCIAL REVIEW OF JANUARY, 1883.
The year 1883 bas opened with a month of comparative
inactivity in commercial and financial transftctions. The
diacussions in Congress on the important subjects of tariff
and internal revenue changes, which have such a direct
bearing upon many classes of business, have tended to
throw an uccertainly ovor matters that has put a check on' any great activity.
The money market was particularly easy, and oven on
stock collaterals much money was loaned on call in the
latter part of the month at 3@4 per cent^ while on gov-
ernment bonds money loaned at 2@3 per cent. Time
loans were also easier, and the choicest mercantile paper
passed at 5 per cent.
In government bonds there was quite an active business
which was stimulated in a good degree by the idea that
surplus revenues of the Government were likely to decline
in 1883, and hence that the redemption of bonds would be
less rapid, and the 3 and 3^ per cent 'bonds would have
longer to run. For this reason the long bonds wore less in
favor and the demand ran on the low-interest bonds,
redeemable at will.
.. At the Stock Exchange there was a- vacillating and
unsatisfactory tone without any healthy activity. The
outside holders of stocks had lost much money in the last
four months of 1882, and they have shown little disposi-
tion to come into the market again, whereas the large
operators and railroad capitalists did little to
support prices, eo that there was at times muchweakness in the speculative list. The personal management of railroads, in which many of the prominent com-panies have passed into the control of Mr. Vanderbilt andhis associates, was not considered as a favorable elementin the situation. Towards the close there was a weak andunsatisfactory feehng.
Foreign exchange kept up during January withmore strength than bad been expected, when the
exports of produce, and particularly of cotton, hadbeen so larn;e, and the imports having a tendency to
decrease. There were, however, somo amounts of gov-
ernment bonds and other stocks and bonds coming- backfrom abroad and a comparatively small amount going out,
while the shipments .of. produce had also been drawnagainst in advance to a considerable extent, whichaccounted for the firmness in foreign bills.
The followmg summary shows the condition of the NewYork City C;earing-House banks, rate of foreign exchange,and prices of leading securities and articles of merchan-dise, on or about the 1st of Feb., 1881, 1882 and 1883.

I From onr own correspondent. I
L03D05, Saturday, January 13, 18S3.
The demand for discount accommodation the past week hasbeen upon a very moderate scale, and there are no indications
of any immediate improvement in it. Trade remains quiet,
and the requirements of the mercantile community appear to
be extremely limited, while there seems to be uo reason for de-
parting from the policy of caution which merchants have for a
long time past regarded as the correct course to pursue. Nu-merous adjustments have, however, been made during the
week in connection with recent loans made for temporary pur-
poses, bat we may now expect that business will resume its
usual character and will not be interrupted to any important
extent. On the whole the trade of the new year opens with afairly promising appearance, though there is a very general im-
pression that America will not only not augment, but will
diminLih, her purchases. An increase of business i.-f, however
,
looked forward to in other quarters, so that in volume it maynot decrease, though it is likely to be attended by small
proSts. The Bank rate remains at 5 per cent, and in the openmarket the quotations are as follows.

NEW YOKK, FRIDAY, FEB. 3, tS83-5 P. M.The Money Murkot and Financial Sitaatiou.—There has
been very little itnprovenient in the stock ai.vrkot this week,
and the prev.ailino; tone is one of hesitation, uncertainty, andlack of confidence in the railroad kings who have usually had80 much influence in directing the course of prices. One of
the main causes for this unsettled feeling is found in the great
doubt which hangs about the doings of Congress, and the im-
possibility of even making a fair guess as to the final result of
their discussions over the tariff and internal revenue bills.
Many branches of commercial business are held in suspenseby this condition of uncertainty, as prices must be regulatedin great measure by the laws passed, if any, and hence themerchant lingers from day to day, impatiently waiting forthe 4th of March to come, when Congress will adjournand leave the horizon clear again for mercantile transactions.Another cause for apathy in the stock market may be tliat
personal management h.as become still more conspicuous inthe control of a number of loading railroail companies ; forwhere one capitalist and liis immediate group of friends havethe power to do as they please with a certain stock, it is evi-
dent that the interest of other stockholders must decline, asthey know that it is impossible to liave anychance atan election,
and the views and interests of the minority may not be tlie sameas tliose of the majority. These remarks are pertinent at this
time on account of the decline in the Vanderbilt stocks, whichnow include not only those of the old roads between New Yorkand Chicago,but also the Nickel-Plate, the Northwesterns and St.
Paul & Omaha. As an illustration of the effect of this controlby a clique, take Northwestern. The Street is entirely uncer-tain at tliis moment whether this company, with its very largesurplus of earnings, is or is not to be saddled in some way•with the St. Paul & Omaha road, so as to make the stock ofthe latter a dividend payer. Tlie Northwest has incomeenough to p.iy 14 or l.j per cent on its stocks, and the stock-holders suppo.sed that they would receive something to repre-sent the large investments in proprietary roads ; but since thecontrtd of the St. Paul & Omaha was purchased last Decem-ber, there is some apprehension that the surplus of Northwestwill be used for the Ijetiefit of Omaha stockliolders. This maynot turn out to be the case, but it is an example of one of thoapprehensions that help to keep the stock market in an un-satisfactory condition.The money market has been very easy, and stoak brokers
have easily supplied tlieir wants at [email protected] per cent on call loansand government bond dealers at 2@3 percent. Prime com-mercial paper is quoted at 5@^},2 per cent.The Bank of England weekly i^tatement on Tliursday showed
a gain of £303,000 in specie, and the percentage of reserve toliabilities was 47 13-16, against 44}{ last week; the discountrate remains at 4 per cent. The' Bank of France gained13,2.")0,0O0 francs gold and 1,100,000 francs silver.
The New York City Clcaring-House banks in their statementof Jan. 27 showed an increa-^e of $1,332,800 in tlieir surplusreserve, the total surplus being ?;10,007,575, against $8,074,775the previous week.The following table shows the changes from the previous
week and a comparison with the two preceding years:

Exchaii!?e.—Exchange has continued pretty firm during theweek, though at the close the feeling was easier. Roceipts ofcotton this week are about 170,000 bales, or about 75,000 aheadof the same week last year ; and if they do not fall off here-after more rapidly than anticipated, there must be a largeamount of exchange drawn against cotton. There camefrom France this week about 1800,000 of calle<l U.

United States Bonds.—There has been considerable aotivi-t V in the dealings this week.and the demand was first in favor ofliie low-interest bonds, as against the 4 and 4>^ per cents: batafter the call for f15,000,000 was issued tho market changed andthe long bonds were more in demand, on the idea that theGovernment would go on and redeem the bonds rapidly as in1882. It is thought very doubtful, however, whether therevenues will be such during the next three months as to show-that this call was warranted.The Treasury Department ha-s issued, under date of Feb. 1,
the one hundred and twentieth call for bonds, calling in $1.5,-000,000 of the ZY^ per cent continued bonds foF redemptionon tho 1st day of May, 1883. The numbers are as follows, allbeing inclusive:

State and Railronil Bonds.—There has been considerabledealing in the Arkansas bonds, and there is much confidenceprofessed among the holders that the railroads will be heldreponsible for the bonds issued to them. To-d.av the LittleRock & Fort Smith issue sold at CS; Pine Bluff & New [email protected]; Central Railroad, 2.5@253><; Louisiana consol 73 soldat 73'i.
Raili'oad bonds continue to be in fair investment demand atgood prices, but there is much less dealing in railroad bondson speculation than formerly, and Uie lower class of bondswhicn are closely allied to the stock market do not hold theirprices s > firmly.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock m.irkethas shown further weakness, and without any great activitythere has been a shrinking in prices. The remarks above,under the head of the "financial situation," have a be.aringupon some of the general causes for a depressed mai'ket, and,in addition to those, it is known that tho bears Iiave muchpower, and they are readj-, on show of weakness in any stock,to hammer it down .and so to depress the kilance of the list.
So far, the year has not been very favorable for railroad earn-ings ill the Northern States, as the weather has been moresevere than in 1882. and the impediment from snow muchgreater; but the trailic in later mcuths may be all the greaterif freight is held back now.The Vanderbilt stocks have been noticeable for weakness,
jMirticularly Lake Shore, Nickel-Plate and Michigan Central,and it has been quite evident for some time past that controlby this party did not necessarily insure steadiness in stocks.The change in Rio Grande directors by the election of threeproniinent E:istern railroad men must be considered a decidedgain to that company. It is but a truism to say that no one is
inclined to buy stocks either for investment or si>cculationwhen he sees a good jirospect of getting them cheaper nextweek; and when the market becomes steadjr and shows signsof permanent strength wo may look for an increase of order<i
botn at borne and abroad.

ANNUAL REPORTS.
Lehigh Valley Railroad Company.
(For the year ending November 30, 1882.)
The aDnual report has just been issued and states that "159
of the sterling bonds were drawn, payable December 1, 1882,
leaving $3,854,000 bearing interest from that date. The second
mortgage bonds of the Southern Central Railroad Company of
New York, amounting to $400,000, endorsed and guaranteed bythis company, as approved by the stockholders in January,
1873, fell due on March 1 last, and were taken up and paid for
by us under an agreement with that company and the holders
of the greater part of its first mortgage bonds, under which
both the existing mortgages were to be canceled and a new one
created at a reduced rate of interest of sufficient amount to
include all their indebtedness and provide means for additional
business. This agreement is now being carried out and will be
completed as soon as.it is assented to by the holders of a few
of their first mortgage bonds. Our line of steamers on the
lakes between Buffalo and Chicago is proving quite successful
and is becoming a paying investment independent of its
advantage as an outlet and feeder for our railroads. Theimprovements at Buffalo, upon which we are expending con-
siderable suras, and the various other interests we have and are
securing at the North and West, are in excellent condition, andno donbt will ultimately be of great advantage towardsincreasing and facilitating the business of our entire route."
The Lehigh Valley Railroad reports never contain a balancesheet of assets and liabilities, but the other statistics are com-piled in the usual form for the Chbokicle, as follows :

(For the year ending Sept. 30, 1882.)
The annual report just issued states that at the last annaa£meeting the fiscal year of the company was changed to end oa.
the 30th day of September, instead of the 31st day of Decem-ber. Consequently the present report would properly only in~elude the operations of the nine months which have elapsedfrom Jan. 1 to Sept. 30, 1882, inclusive. In order, however, to
present a more intelligible view of the subject, as well as toenable the usual comparison to be made of the year whichended Sept. 30, 1882, with that of the twelve months next pre-ceding, the statements of earnings and expenses herewith sub-mitted include not only the business from Jan. 1 to Sept. 30,.
1882, inclusive, but also the three months preceding (October,
November and December, 1881V so as to constitute the regularfiscal year. Exclusive of the regular operating expenses of the-
road, there has been expended during the year the amount of$259,061, as follows:
Construetlon $02,477Equipment 146,599Extraordinary and reorganization expenses. &o.. 49,995— $259,061ThPSo expenditures were paid with the net sur-
pluj3 from earnings 91,093Amount realized from sale of securities as follows:Income bonds $126,572Third scries bonds 37,462 164,034 255,123
Showing a deficit Oct. 1, 1882, of $3,93*
The amount ($139,079) of bills payable has been reduced sinc»Sept. 30, 1SS2, by actual payments thereon to the extent of
f44,128. The company has as resources the following securi-
ties, which came into its possession from the late reorganizationof the company: $37,400 3d series bonds, $26,100 4th series
bonds, §397,000 income bonds. The company holds $630,000 ofthe new common stock and $10,688 1st preferred stock, $6,4242d preferred stock, and $12,910 old common stock.
The following shows the earnings and operating expenses ofthe fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 1882, as compared with the sameperiod ending Sept. 30, 1881:
1882. 1881.Freight $707,370 $657,326Passenger 530,386 470,861Express 60,030 .5.'i,953

Net $570,029 595,982-
From the above it will be seen that the gross earnings in
1882 increased §154,048 and the operating expen.ses increased|179,4C1, making a decrease in net earnings in 1882 of $23,352as compared with 1881.
" For the year ending September 30. 1882, 305,454 passengerswere transported, an increase of 58,798 passengers over the-previous year. The passenger fare in 1882 was less than in
1881. If the same rate of charge had been maintained in 1883,
the increase in that year from pa-ssenger earnings wouldhave been $113,428, instead of $53,525 as herein reported.For the year ending September 30, 1882, 364,196 tons offreight were hauled, of which 176,063 were carried north-war(l and 188,133 southward. Compared with the previ >ns yearthe increase is 65,162 ton.s. The ton miles in 1882 were38,735,838, an increase of 8,020,049. If the same rate of chirg»per ton per mile had been maintained in 1882 which was chargedduring 1881, the increase in gross earnings from freight wouldhave been $171,620, instead of $50,044 as reported herein."* * * " While the business both passenger and freight hasbeen increased by the more intimate relations which have beenestablished with the Richmond & Danville Railroad at Danvillewithin the past year, the bulk of the freight traific inter-changed by the two companies has gone from the line of theVirginia Midland Railway to points south of Danville; alimited amount only having been delivered in return for trans-portation over the Virginia Midland Railway for points north ofDanville. The records in the transportation department showthat from January 1 to September 30, 1882, the Virginia Mid-land Railway delivered to the Richmond & Danville Railroad atDanville for transportation to points south of Danville 1,471loaded cars, nearly all of which passed over the entire line ofthe Richmond & Danville Railroad south of Danville.
" In this same period the Richmond & Danville delivered tothe Virgina Midland 235 loaded cars, not more than 20 of whichwere for points north of Alexandria. This movement of freightin one direction only has necessarily made the freight traffic
less profitable, as the cars came back empty."

GENERAL INVESTMENT NEWS.Arkansas Rnilrond Debt.—A press dispatch from Little
IRock, January 29, said : "A complaint was filed to-day in the^United States Court against the Little Rock Pine Blutf & NewOrleans and the Mississippi Ouachita & Red River railroads,afterwards consolidated and known as the Little Rock Missis-sippi River & Texas Railway, to compel the payment of overduecoupons on bonds issued by the State to aid in their construc-tion. In 1870 the State issued to the first-named road,f 1,200,000, and to the la.st-named, $600,000 seven per centthirty-year bonds to aid in construction, the road agreeing topay the interest as it fell due and the principal at maturity.No interest has been paid since 1873, tne roads holding, andthe Arkansas Supreme Court sustaining the point, that the'bonds were issued contrary to law. This question was decidedin the United States Court recently adverse to the road.s, in asimilar ca.se against the Little Rock & Fort Smith Railroad, theCourt holding that the roads were liable for the bends, not-withstanding that they may not have been issued in strictaccordance with the law. These bonds form a part of thedisputed bonded debt of Arkansas."
Atlantic & raciflc—Paclflc of Ml8.?onrl.—Mr. John E.Barrill, counsel for the Atlantic & Pacific Road, makes thefollowing statement as to the suit of certain stockholders ofthe old Pacific Railroad of Missouri against the Atlantic &.Pacific. He savs: '• The claims of the stockholders of the oldPacific Railroaa of Missouri against the Atlantic Si Pacific Rail-road Company arise under a lease by the former to the lattercompany. BV this lease the former company leased its road tothe Atlantic & Pacific Company, and the latter agreed to payas r-nt certain dividends to the stockholders of the lessorcompany. The lease provided that, on the termination of theleasH, whenever it should happen, all liability of the le.s.see
under it should cea.se, and also that the lessor should pay thelessee any balance of the account due arising out of the making-of permanent improvements on the property. Two foreclosuresuits were brought in the United States Circuit Court inMissouri to foreclose a mortgage on the Atlantic & Pacific anda mortgage on the Pacific Railroad. In these suits the courttook the leased property out of the hands of the Atlantic &Pacific, and appointed receivers of it, and operated it until it
was finally sold, and by its decree adjudged that the lease hadbeen canceled and surrendered. In addition to this, the Pacific£aiIroad, by its directors, and with the assent of its stockholdersaccepted the surrender of the lease by the Atlantic & Pacific.
In my opinion, and that of associate oonocil, all liability of tb*Atlantic & Pacific to pty dividends under the lease ceMcdwhen it was deprived of the leased property by a ooart ofcompetent jurisdiction, and the l«ue canceled and lorretiderwda* above stated. The Atlantic ft Pacifti] claim a large amomitander the lease against the Pacific Railroad of HIasonri, bat asthe latter has no road, and has a mere paper ezbtance, it wouldbe useless to attempt to enforce it or to nae it, except aa adefense to any claims of that company.

lowing directors were elected : William B. Stearns, Seth Bemis,Robert Codman, Rodney "Wallace, Franklin N. Poor, Charles T.Crocker and Charles A. Welch. The directors were authorizedto issue bonds for $500,000 to fund the floating debt. Thedirectors were authorized to request the Vermont & Massachu-setts Railroad to issue its bonds to an eitent not exceeding$1,000,000, to pay the bonds falling due in July next, and alsoto be applied towards the payment of the Fitchburg RailroadCompany for the improvements made on the Vermont & Massa-chusetts Railroad.Indiana Kloomlngton & Western.—It will be remembered
that after this company had leased the Cincinniti Sandusky &Cleveland road for 33>S per cent of the gross earnings, a dis-pute arose in relation to the interpretation of a part of thelease. The section of the road from Springfield, Ohio, to Day-ton was leased years ago to the Cleveland L'olumbus Cincinnati& Indianapolis as part of its Cincinnati line, the rental being apercentage on the gross earnings. The question at issue waawhether the gross earnings of this leased section, or only therental received for it, should be included in computing the 33^per cent to be paid by the Indiana Bloomington & WesternCompany. It was mutually agreed to leave the question to thecourts for decision, and a friendly suit was begun in the Courtof Common Pleas at Springfield, Ohio. That court has nowdecided in favor of the lessee's view, that only thj rentalreceived is to be included in the gross earnings on which rentis computed.

Mr." Dowthen brought suit against the railroad company to compel it torefund the amount paid. Judge Caldwell, of the United StatesCourt to-day decided that the company must repay the money.Mexican Centrnl.—In connection with the recent proposal
for bonds the circular said: "It is fair to estimate, theiefore,that the earnings from the miles of road now in operation, aadthe subsidy collections, will net the company at least .'^150,000
American currency per month, a sum sufficient to pay the in-terast fin all bonds outstanding Dec. 31, 1882 ($15,970,000), andthose due to the subscribers under circular No. 2. making inall an issue of $21,050,000), with an e.ices3 per annum of ,*3-.i6,-Knn " The amount derived from net earnings and subsidy col-600."

Th'' increase for the last three months is due tosome ext. 1 1 •• the connection with the Central South Americanline, but I be !ilexiean business alone for November and Decem-ber shows an increase of over 30 percent. The expenses lastyear were at the rate of .'560,000 per annum, which is more thanthe officers eipect in future, owing to the fact that an extrafotcf was engaged, though not actually employed, for severalmonths awaiting the opening of the Central South American4jne.

D. W. Caldwell, J. H. Wade and Charles Hickox of Cleveland.
The Tribune report says that Mr. Tillinghast moved that a
mortgage of $10,000.000"be placed on the road and asked a vote
on it. Wm. K. Vanderbilt said: "1 voti 382,491 shares of the
full amount voted, o.' a total of more than $38,000,000 of stock.
While we voted a portion of this by proxy in the previous vote,
and do not own it all, we control it." The following officers
were chosen by the board: W. K. Vanderbilt, President; D. W.Caldwell, Viee-Pretident; F. W. Vanderbilt, Secretary andTreasurer. Of the above $10,000,000 bonds, it is proposed to

—In regard to the control of the New York Chicago & St.
Louis by the Lake Shore company, the N. Y. Herald gives anaccount of the matter as stated by Mr. W. L. Scott of Erie, Pa.>
one of the old directors of the Lake Shore company. Mr. Scott
said:
"I have no objection to telling the public everything I knowin regard to the matter. I don't think that, so far as the official
action of the Lake Shore board is concerned, any director wouldobject to the public knowing all the details of the transaction.
The Lake Shore has secured the controlling interest in thecapital stock bf the Nickel Plate. I doii't say that this interest ,
is absolutely vested in the Lake Shore to-day, but the new^oadis under Its control and direction. To secure this interest, the
Lake Shore has issued in payment $6,oOO,000 of its second mort-gage bonds, thereby adding to the fixed charges of the LakeShore $435,000 per annum." « « *
" Mr. Vanderbilt bought, individually and through a syndi-
cate, a controlling amount of the stock of the opposition road.
The sole object was to protect the Lake Shore by harmonizingthe interests of the two line.i. As I have said, the total cost
was 16,500,000 for the controlling interest, the New Y'ork Chi-
cago & St. Louis company agreeing to take the second mort-gage bonds of our company." « * «
" A meeting of the Lake Shore directors was called duringthe latter part of December, at which practically all thedirectors were present. The gentlemen representing thesyndicate which had purchased the Nickel Plate road appearedat the meeting and offered the stock which they had secured to-
the Lake Shore Company. Mr. Vanderbilt frankly stated to-
the meeting that he was a party in interest in the sydicate, andthat they wrre ready to turn over to Lake Shore at absolutecost the stock they had purchased in the new line. He did notwish any of the board, however, to be influenced by the fact
that he was a party in the syndicate, and he desired them notto hesitate to say so if they thought the purchase an injudicious-
one. He gave liis reasons at length for believing that the bestthing the Lake Shore could do was to assume the stock whichhe and his friends had purchased, or at least to control it
indirectly, but left his fellow directors at perfect liberty to do-
as they thought best in the matter. If the board thought hehad erred in what he had done, he was perfectly willing to retain-
the stock and assume the whole responsibility himself." * *
" There was only one question raised, and that was as to thelegality of Ihe absorption of the New Y'ork Chicago & St.
Louis stock by the Lake Shore company." * * * "There wasnot a dissecting opinion expressed at that board meeting byany member. Everybody agreed, but it was finally decided to
take every precaution and to refer the question to the mosteminent counsel. The proposition was therefore withdrawnuntil we could be fortified with the best legal advice." * * *
" The board adjourned and the question was submitted to alarge number of Ja*yers in the various States through whichthe road passes. Their opinion was that the stock'could belegally bought by our company. These opinions were laid
before a meeting of the board held early in the present month,and the purchase was then consummated." * » «

Trniik Line TooK—The New York Tribune reports : "TheNew York Lackawanna & Western Ita 11road Company has prac-tically beeu invited to enter the trunk line pool, and has de-
clined to do 80. No formal invitalim was extended by the poolroads, but tfaeircommnnications with the new line have Duensuch as to warrant it in considering them an invitation. Com-miasioner Fink, at; tlw meetin;^ of the Committee of Presidentslast week, was given authority to arrange for the admis.sion of
the Lackawanna. Since that time he has conferred with SamuelSloan, Presidenfof- the Lackawanna Company. Mr. h'lnk in-
formed Mr. Sloan that the trunk lines recognized the Lacka-wanna as one of their number, fully entitled to share in thethrough traffic between New York and the West. That shajethey were willing to allow to th(?''new'?cad, provided the busi-
ness was obtained by legitimate means. Mr. Fink is understoodto have represented to Mr. Sloan the importanue of the rtwpon-eibility that w:ould rest oa the Lackawanna if, by cutting rates, it
led to a geueial reduction by the pool lines. In reply, Mr. Sloaneipressed the intention of working in harmony with the poolroads and denied that the Lackawanna road had made. rates be-low those made by its coaipetitora. The Lackawanna, however,was in no condition to enter the pool with any surety that its
ability as a through linewould receive proper recognition there-in, ft did not care to become a party to the truuk-iine agree-ments until it had established better conueotions with theWestern lines than it now enjoyed."

The speculation in cotton for future delivery has been fairly
active at this market the past week. On Saturday last there
was an early advance, in sympathy with better foreign advices,
but notices of free deliveries on February contracts, which weregenerally thrown upon the market, caused the improvement
to be lost, and on Monday there was a further decline. On.
Tuesday the market was dull and weak. Wednesday was sub-
stantially a repetition of Saturday, a higher opening being fol-
lowed by some decline. Yesterday the changes were very-
slight, but the tendency was downward. The Southern mar-kets were stronger early in the week, but dulness and depres-
sion followed, as receipts at the ports have exceeded all.
estimates, having been notably large at the Gulf ports. To-day
the opening was lower, under the free crop movement and dull
foreign adviees, but the close was at a full recovery. Cotton
on the spot has been quiet and unchaoged, middling uplandsclosing quiet to-day at 10 3-16.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 448,400'
Dales. For immediate delivery the total sales foot np this week2,899 bales, including 67 for export, 2,513 for con.sumption'
319 for speeolation and— in transit. Of the above, 200 bales
were to arrive. The following are the official quotations fo r
each day of the past week.

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

QVERL.VSD M0VE.MENT TO FEBRnAKr 1.—In our editorial col-
umns will bo found our overland mjTement brought down to
more accurate.. Hitherto we have found it impossible to keepout of onr flgares, as cabled to us for the ports other thanBombay, cargoes which proved only to be shiprhent.s fr.im oneIndia port to another. The plan we have now adopted, as wehave reason to believe, will relieve us from the danger of thia
Inaccuracy and keep the totals correct. We first give theBomb.ay statement for the week and year, bringing the figures
down to February 1.

BREADSTUFFS.FBIDAT, P. M., Februarr 2, 1883.
Flonr in the fore pan of the week was rather quiet and more
or less depressed, in sympathy with an easier market of wheat,
bnt latterly, with the cereal firmer, the demand has improved,
especially for the lower grades, saperQne more particularly
nd quotations close firm. The receipts have increased, and of
tbe better grades there is an ample supply, though the cheaper
brands are not very plentiful.
Wheat has been active on speculation at an advance of 2 to 3
fioits, but the higher prices have kept the foreign trade within
Tery moderate limits. Spring and white wheat have been
carce and especially firm, and to-day No. 2 Chicago was
qnoted at f1 14. The visible supply is gradually increasing,
and the crop prospects appear quite as favorable as recently,
though there Is a growing diversity of opinion as to th« real
magnitude of the last crop, some contending that it has been
over-estimated. To-day the market was )ie. higher, with a fair
•jport demand and a pretty liberal speculation. No. 2 red sold
atfl 17H@1 17?^ for February, fl 19@1 19}^ for March, $1 21
®1 215^ for April and $1 22@1 22% for March. It is said that
considerable covering of contracts is being done in Chicago.
Indian com has been quiet for export, but fairly active on
speculation. Prices have been more or less irregular, bnt close
At about the quotations of a week ago. A decline within twodays of 15 cents in Chicago, caused by the breaking of theJanuary corner, had comparatively little effect here, as thereappeared to be but little short interest to settle. To-day the
market waa fairly activn at an advance of ^Olc t No. 2 miied•old at 88Ho. fnr February and KOKUe. tot May, while Marchand April were both quoted at e9^069M<!.Rye has been moderately active and about steady. Barley
haa been quiet, but Arm. Oala have sold moderately at «oin«advance of late, though early in the week some depression waaapparent j No 2 miied sold to-day at 48'^04836o. for Pebra>ary, 48H«H9o. for March, 49049 '^e. for April and 48'/6©49c.for May.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.FaiDAT. p. M., Feluuary 2, 1883.
There has been a fair movement in dry goods the past weekbut buyers continued to operate with rather less liberality thanis nsa»l at this stage of the season. The cold and stormyweather prevailing in many parts of the country has militated
against the demand for s.ime kinds of spring goods, bnt staple
fabrics of domestic manufacture were in fair request by pack-
age buyers, and there was a little more inquiry for foreign
goods. The jobbing trade was quiet in the regular way, but
some large sales of prints and domestics were made by a few
of the leading jobbers by means of relatively low prices.
Domestic Cotton Goods.—The exports of cotton goods were
2,810 packages, of which 1,013 were shipped to Africa, 785 to
China, 257 to Great Britain, 212 to Argentine Republic, 153 to
United States of Colombia, 154 to Brazil, &c. There was a good
steady business in the most desirable makes of brown and
bleached cottons, but outside brands were slow of gale. Wide
sheetings, corset jeans and satteens, white goods, quilts, &c.
were severally in fair request, and cottonades met with a mod-
erate distribution ; but there was only a limited demand for
cheviots and a light call for other kinds of colored cottons.
Print cloths were in fair demand and steady at 3 ll-16c. for
64x64s, and 3 3-lGc. for 56x60s, respectively. Fancy shirting andindigo-blue prints met with fair aggregate sales, and a large
business was done in Harmony fancy prints at the low piice of
4%e. per yard. Ginghams were in light and irregular demand.Domestic Wooles Goods.—There was more inquiry for heavy
cassimeres by the clothing trade, and some fair orders wereplaced for such makes as agents are ready to show ; but the
supply ia limited as yet, and transactions were therefore mod-erate in the aggregate. For spring cas.simeres and worsted*there was a steady reassorting demand. Overcoatings andheavy satinets have received a good deal of attention, andKentucky jeans and doeskins were in slightly improved re-
quest by out-of-town jobbers. AVhite flannels were taken in
fair quantities, and liberal sales of wool suitings and sackings
(for dress purposes) were made by agents. Prices for heavyclothing woolens have not been fully determined upon, butthey will probably be about the same as last year.
FoKEiGN Dry Goods.—TJie demand for imported goods hasbeen spasmodic and irregular, but upon the whole rather moreactive than of late ; dress goods and silks were more sought for,
but buyers are cautious in their operations. Linens, whitegood.s, embroideries, laces, hosieiy and gloves have severally
met with increased attention, and a fair distribution of these
goods was made in relatively small parcels.
Importatlous of Dry Cioods.
The importations of dry goods at this port for the w-ekending Feb. 1, 1833, and since January 1, and the same facts
for the corresponding p-riods of 1882. are as follows:
