ton shipments last week were only
81, O2O bales, against 110,007 last year,
and the price was held steadily at 1919 cents
for mddling uplands. AT one time during the
week the low rates of ocean freight and de-
cline in prices stimulated an export demand
for wheat and corn, but it was quickly checked
by advancing prices. Grain was taken for
ballast last week. At one time, the rate was
only one penny per bushel-less than 70 cents
per ton from New York to Liverpool. Even
Gotten was taken at only $3 30 per ton. This
shows clearly the remarkable decline in Amer
lean exports the movement is 80 small that
vessels compete with each other for freghts
even to the point Of taking grain instead of
ballast.
The speculative cliqucs which have the mas
terry in the Western markets threaten to main
tain high prices through the season. OF late
they haze been favored by exceedingly light
receipts, and the visible supply of wheat is
now $780, 900 bushels less than it was year
ago, the supply of corn 100000 bushels
less, and the supply of oats 100000 bushels
less. There are reports, also, that the corn in
cribs along the lines Of the principal corn
moving railroads amounts to only 100000
bushels, where over %, coo, 900 bushels were
held at this time last year. At some points in
the West where the failure of the crop was
most complete, very high prices are now paid
for corn to be used in feeding. Nevertheless,
fresh vegetation will soon supply more eco
nomical food The winter wheat still promises
well, and there is said to be assured large
increase Of acreage in cotton. But until the
new crops begin to come forward, prices will
be controlled with comparative ease by specu-
latve rings.
In part because the advance Of prices
has made living more costly, and III part be-
cause partial curtament of work in some
branches of industry has virtually reduced
wages. the tendency to contests between labor
and capital seems to be growing. In some
cases, too, the manufacturers have found 1t
impossible to maintain the prices of products,
and have attempted reduction of wages.
The increase in number and activity of organ
izatiOns of working people Is an evidence OF
dissatisfaction, and sign which is usually
followed by strikes of more or less importance.
The Lawrence strike threatens to spread to
Fall River, and the miners of the anthracite
region are taking much interest in the Cum
berland strike but it is to be observed that
disturbance has thus far been almost confined
to branches of industry in which temporary
suspension would do little harm. Directly or
indirectly most of them are traceable to the
partial failure of crops last year, and their
causes would disappear with another season of
general prosperity.

NEwyOwN DAILY TRIBUNE. MONDAY. MARCH 81 1887

| 1881 were. first. the great development oil
| facilities for handling freight here ana e'So-
where; and second, the construction OF ne"
railroads designed to share the large pron'S
realized from transportation at the ola rateS'
| In 1879 and 1850, the railroads had Dcen eA-
traordnarily prosperous. Thereupon shieWo
men calculated that, il large profits could oe
| earned by roads costing $loOOoo,VOo, III
Transporting freight between the sea ana the
lakes profits could also be realized Dy
roads costing third or a quarter OF tIlat
sum. The Lackawanna extension, the On
tario and Western, and the proposed
proiection of a Massachusetts, road across this
State, were some of the fruits OF this idea.
But the law of gravitatiOn is not more certain
or irresistible than the law which impels cap
ital into any branch of business which seems
especially profitable. So, too the building OF
elevators by the Erie and Pennsylvania, and
the improvements at Baltimore and Boston,
were merely inevitable consequences OF the
remarkable development of profitable bust
ness in grain carrying These things brought
about, of necessity. q severity of competition
in the present, and prospect of greater com
petition in the future, against which railroad
managers undertook TO defend themselves by
a war of rates.
In the settlement thus far, moreover, the
managers have been impelled by almost IRE
sistble power. There were stockholders ana
creditors, at home and abroad, who demanded
a cessation of strife. There were great bank
ers, here and in Europe, who gave notice that
they would refuse hereafter to recommend the
securities of companies that persisted III the
strife, and some of the companies were aware
that they would be compelled before long to
ask new financial arrangements. In thousand
ways the whole financial world pressed the
managers to put end to struggle which
could otherwise end only in ruin.
These events teach some lessons which legls-
lato1s may well study. They teach, first, that
it is nonsense to suppose that Few railroad
mon0polists have power to make rates TO
please themselves. The laws of trade and
finance are more powerful than all the kings
on earth, railroad and other. Second, these
events teach chat unusual profits in any bust
ness will inevitably he cut down, in short
time, by the gravitation of new capital into
that business so that no monopoly can be
maintained. Third, they teach that the ire
pressible force of competition, where lcglsla-
ton does not break its power, accomplishes
more than any Congress or Legislature could
have expected to accomplish by any act. FL
nally, they teach that the public has no occa-
sion 10 fear the new compact which the rail
road managers have made. Ii will either be
used TO give them unreasonable profits, or it
will not. If not, the public need not complain.
But if it establishes unreasonable rates and
secures unreasonable profits, there will very
soon follow growth OF facilities for Transport
tation against which no combination can pos
sibly sustain itself.
