The Probable Speculative SpRsm
inNeW York and Boston.
From he Chicago Tribuns.
ain New York, We often see our imam
cial situation forecast. There an active
movement has begun Of gold to Europe
to liquidate American indebtedness, and
the bankers are complaining because they
cannot get, for export, nj the large supply
in the Sub-Treasury Of double eagles OIL
full weight and recent coinage. The ex'
ports Of commodities have been so light
that, as here, the amount Of commercial
exchange that can be drawn Is very light
A great deal Of gold Is likely to DO ship
ped until the next cotton crop is market
ed. This current Of the exchanges will
add to the ease in the London discount
market, which Is reported in the London

pushed by the bondholdcrs in settlement
ofthe present difficulty Three plans have
been suggested as means Of relieving the
company from embarrassment First, to
form an association Of bondhOlderS that
might be strong enough to iorccloSc the
mortgage and buy in the road; second, for
the bOndholders TO exchange their bonds
for preferred stock, leaving the completed
road clear Of debt as the basis Of new
series Of bonds, and then later to effect a
second exchange ofbonds for the stock, II
desired; third, to hold the road built and
lands earned asSole security for the bonds
now out, to divide the road to be con.
strllclcd into sections Of twenty Eve miles,
and to make an issue Of bonds for each
section, to be secured by that particular
section and lands earned through II.

The effect Of low rates, should they con.
tinuc, will 10 to diminish The net earn
ings Of the roads, but in the end they
must reap substantial gains from the in.
crease Of traffic which must follow. illus.
trAtiohs to the point are abundant. The
New York Central for example, limited
rs II il to two cents a mile for passcn-
gers, accumulated money 80 rapidly, that
to enable II to divide II legally among la
stockholders, II issued scrip dividend,
watering the stock to nearly double its
original amount. In place Of this, II
might have benefited the people by adopt.
inRa cheaper schedule Of passenger and
freight rates. This form Of criticism will
apply to every railroad In the country.
The tariff Of legal rates ranges from two
TO Eve cents per mile. The competing
roads are now carrying passengers be.
tween New York and Chicago, via Dalti.
more, at about Si5, or say one and a half
cents per mile. A road that cannot car.
~ passengers at profit at three cents per
mile, Is built before its day. And when a
railroad IL fairly prosperous in business,
nothing isclearer than that II can afford
to cary way passengers at a cent per mile,
and on fast trains At two cents, and have
a reasonable margin Of profit. passen.
gers are seli.moVing ifeight-and the In.
terest on the increased cost Of passenger
cars over freight cars Is equaliied by the
difference in the number Of employees on
the several trains. One passenger will
not represent more than one-tenth Of a
ton-anG on this principle Il can be seen
how reasonable the rate Il. In England,
this IL the price charged on certain trains,
~ required by law, and the experience
there il, that the cheapening Of rates
has increased greatly the traffic.
