PACIFIC RAILROAD.
Report of its Workings Condition and
Prospects

Boston, March 9.-The bondhold-
ers of the Union Pacific railroad met
to-day and elected directors for the
ensuing year, as follows
Oliver Ames, COLES Ames, John
Duff, John B. Alley, c. H. McCor-
mick, w. T. Gedden, II. Hazard,
Elisha Atkins, A. e. Lawherd, o. S.
Chapman, Joseph BrOalls, g. NJ.
Dodge, Sidney Dellon, Frederick
NickersOn and G. S. Burhil.
The following is the substance of
thereport as made by Oliver Ames,
the President:
1--WE have put during the year
upon snow sheds and snow fences,
over $500, 600 we have now over five
miles of snow sheds and nearly fifty
miles of snow fences in addition to
the large amount of snow fences put
up during the past year. The exper-
iment, thus far, this winter, shows
that our road can be run without
serious hindrance or obstruction from
snow. The SHOWS of the present
winter have been the same as last,
and we have but in one instance been
obstructed over "A hours. Our Super
intendent is confident that he can
keep our road as free from snow as
the roads of New England and New
York. The earnings of the road for
the months reported, since it first
opened, amounts to $4,000, 900, and we
anticipate that the gross earnings for
the ensuing year will be $4,000, geo,
and shall not be surprised should they
largely exceed it. The net increase
from this will pay all the interest and
a handsome dividend upon the stock,
should we not need it for improve
ments upon the road.

AT the Produce Exchange the fluctu-
ating course of gold has brought the
market almost to stand still. The
decline in gold and advance in freights
have driven shippers of breadstuffs
out of the market, while the home
trade refuses to purchase more than
pressing wants. Provisions ruled
very dull, but prices were unchanged.
In mercantile circles business was un-
settled, and prices generally have a
dropping tendency, especially in dry
goods. Money is unusually easy at
4@5 per cent. Sterling dull, 8G94.
Governments, which advanced under
the gold price of 1lA, fell of, and closed
weak. State securities are strong, ex-
cept new Tennessees and LOuisianas,
which were weak. Old Tennessees,
so; new, 4S4.
