It bes been sustained at very igh pricew for.s long time, but the positicn of the company and its futuro prospects aro becomtyg daily betkr understood. Thore Nin the Public mind, on this olds of the Attantia, @ great ent of confidence in the ultimate result of this company’s onera- (lows, The capital stock {s now twenty-five millions of dollars, thirty per cent called and paid in. Before tn’ lapse of another year there will be, beyond doubt,.a fur. ther issue of stock, upon which the same amount will be called, apd ia this way the nominal capital of tho road will repidly run up. ‘Tho railroad ia already @ burden upon the land department of the company. We doubt if it ever pays more than tts running expenses. If the com- Pany could give away tho road it would gave money in 69 doing. As it cannot do so, the road must draw largely uzon the company’s resources, and absorb a large amount of the proceeds of land rales. It may appear a little proma- ture to place these remarks upon record, but in our opinion the most appropriate time to put the public on their guard Qguinet avy particular seourity ts whea confidence ruus bigh aud the community aro blinded by the glittering ro Ports precented. The Iilinois Centra!

Most all the transac tions were on time, With the generai knowledge the pub- lic have of the finances and the management of this con- cern, it does appear etrange that anything like current prices can bo sustained, There are rumors of now finan- cierirg operations inside the office, but we have not been abie to trace them toa polut. Is would take a good deal to eurprise vs in the tranzactions of this company, Michi. gen outhorn was rather quiet today. This company ig now in most exceliest hands. The Litchfield party rule the entire concern, from stem to stern. They have it fairly in their breeches pocket. The stookholders must bave strong hopes of a dividend to carry its shares under the present management. The late treasurer enjsyed more or less of the confidence of the public, and carried through by bis pereonal respectability the recent financial move- ment, It is therefore due to the public that he should give the result of his sixty days official career. Hs cllence is construed intosn approval of the financial policy pur- sued, and an admission that bia early reports of tae com- pany’s condition were at a later day confirmed. Now, wo ‘would like to put certain qucetlons to Mr. Gray, ani the stockholders would like to eee the answers: — 1. Have not resent discoveries shown that the floating debt is mueh large than first reported? 2. Is not the Goating debt now upwards of one million eight hundred thoosand dollars? 8. Do mot the cash payments of the company during the carly part of July amount to more than six hundred thos- dollare, and the company wiihoul the means of raising anything like that amount? 4. Have not the company taken legal advice in relation (o by pothecating new issues of stock for loans? 6. Were not the actual net earnings, after paying ta- terest, last pear leas than $300,000, and have not the ex- penses been iargely tncroasod this year? 6. Have not the company’s motes, to a large amount, been diacovered afloat since the last (May 1st) financial atatoment? Ut Mr. Gray bas sufficient regard for tho outside stock- holders of this company, be will either confirm or deny these charges. The position of Mr. Gray as treasurer of the company for a period of elxty days gave bim sufficient opportunity for posting bimseif,and he should piace on record the result of bis administration, eo that hereafter wo may know where to place the responsibility.

Mla utterly impomsible to sustain the stock market, Tho quantity of stock offering for rale, the wan't of confidence in railroad seouritioa generally, the growing stringency in the money market, and the prospect of a serious revulsion in financial affairs throughout the cou: try, serve to deter operstors, and to induce holders to realize at any eacritice. ‘The Assistant Treasurer reports to day as follows — ‘Total le T, Foun pay menia i at 8 ‘Total ee 10,186 822 92 ‘Tho Chicago, 8.

The following statement, made by # My, John Lockwood giving the partiowlars of @ contract entered inte for the construction of the western division ef the Miwaukio and Missiseippi Railroad, will be found very interesting just at thistime. The public have been serious eufforers by the sytem of management pursued in our railroad companies, and they now want to know what partios are to be held responsible for the reckless and extravagant courre of finapelering which bas involved some of the most promi. nent lines of the country in hopeless insolvency. We have in this statement of Mr. Lockwood's an insight into the fipancial system pursued by the Milwaukie and Missiae!ppi Railroad managers. Wo give it for the purpose of showing bat the only parties to blame for the onormons decline in the market and actual value of railroad property are the directors themeelves. It is all very well for effect to talk abget the “ mendacious bears,” aad the “ unscrupulous Press,” and Wall street stockjobbers; bat the public ca” ‘Bot be blinded by such things. The time has gone by when the bull organs can influence any one by such sto- rie. The directors of tho Milwaukio and Mississipp! Rall road haye done no more than the directors tn nearty every other road in the country have done. They are all alike; Dut in the Milwaukie and Missiasipp! they have been found Out, and the rest will r00n follow: — MuLWacKE AND Maegerrrs Rartnoad—Srarewest ov Mx these directors ‘and SUperiptendent, that the clean net profir the tract could not fall whort of — $600,000; estimate ad conclueivn before’ them, made up parties with the aid and asaistanc > of the y's wuper- intendent a4 one of the number, .@ Cook & Lockwood contact with the company was enter.“ foto; that at tho saine time the secret understanding ane *sreement by aud betwren eald Cook & Lockev0l and said Wroctors (three is number, one of whom was and ever since’ has been the Weasuser of the com @ny) and (ho superiosadent, that while raid Cook & Lock wood osienaibly were the ole con tractors in fact the eald rok ebould have a neal bonedrial interest in only one-fourth of raid contract, while the rematning three-fourths should bo divided ‘equaty smopg the five other agrecing parties, to wit: raid Lrokwood, the three directors aforeeaid, embraoln; hoe trensurer the road’s attorney, also the pri: cipe! Onavelsi egent of the company wid the’ superiutendent of the whoie road; that for the purpoww of perfecting this errapgement and carrying tt out more offect ually, writion agreement amd ewignments were made and entered into by apd among come of them for the purpose of aod securing for each bis full share of tho profia of aald Cooke & Lock wood comt-act under ant according to enid secrot errel it; that one of these pavers iv atill in the hands of Jobn Lockwevd, purporting w bo an agreement between bim and one of the saif directors, y which ove fifth of three-fourths of eaid Cooke Leck wood contract wus assigned to tbat director, and be uperertook to bear ove Gfth of throe fourths of the bar. thers of the work and expenre; that the paper bereto aa- nened, marked A, lo @ ‘copy ef the last na ned eon. tract, ibe original of which cam be produced at any ime im ovidemee, the fame being writien in the hand writing of the eald director named therein and signed by bim, tbat be (Lockwood) bas not now possession of any other of shore writen agreements, and docs not koow whether they «till exist oF are destroyed, but be can state the con tenis of bem substantially, and’ can tell in whose hands he Inst sow them, go that the substance of them nocd not evidence; that when the said Cooke & Lock tract was about being mado It was fully talked these diroctors, that 1 would bo very dangerous it known that any members of tho Board of Di- reciors were to be interested ta the contract, especially ts these very persons wore moxt active and tostrumental in procuring eaid Cooke & Lockwood contract to be made, anc more especially since by one of the by-laws of the company the contract itself would be rendered void by suoh interest on the part of any director, and that there. fore profound secresy was enjoined; that shortiy avter the consummation of the above named arrangements, he (Lockwood) fund bis position among these mon 60 un- Comfortable in many respects, and expecially did he be. ‘come #0 deeply impreseed with the beliof he would not be dealt fairly with by the other parties to the ar rangement, that he became destrous of geting out of tho matter whole, and for that purpose he sold out his entire Interest tn said Cooke & Lockwood contract t» one of these direotorn, who was also the Treasurer of the company, for comparatively a trifilog sum, and took the joint bond of that director and of said Cooke to ki him barmiess under that contract, or damage by, im, er ou account of bis liability there- under, which last named bond ho stil! has and can pro- duce. To be sure to be anderstood, tt may be added that tbe mode in which this eccret arrangement was got al was this, to wit:—The entire contract was first taken by Cooke & Lockwood together as ; then Uooke one-balf of bis interest in made Lockweod the holder of three fourths and Cooke of one fourth of the eame; that thereupon Lock wood assigned three fifths of three-fourths of the whcle contract to the director, who was at the eame time treasurer of the com- y, with the understanding al! around that he was to Boia one-fifth for his private benefit, and one-fifth each for the benefit of 10 Buperio’ and of director, who was the principal financial agent of the board ; and al or about the same time he ‘also oae-fifth of three-fowths to another director, who was at the same time the attorney of the company, and retained one.fifth for a while in bimseit, but finally outand his entire about being made that with that by these Hi the individcal who was the mpcnange. ‘Tuonspar, July 2, 1867, soobabe Reetonas obo 11 20 d0.,,,.015 Th " eres | Indies ices continued qm? frm, Tho tales wore limited = Dundred bales. wie “9 Faxonrs —Rates for Liyctpool were rather and about 10,600 bushels of wheat #ére en; bags at Sa., 1,060 bbin. rosin at 440° tons [ima 1n., 600 bales of cotton at 3s., 1,000 hz, molasses ag and 6¢ tlercer of beef at 36, To Londot<600 tons of cake at ts 6d Rates to Havre and other "ine tet vant rine Within a day or two al 1 of, * tor am archate, sid at 700 ‘toon Jory —Salon were ohee! by inclemexsy weaiber, while priece remained coro gag me Ene ated pia pg ares at Leary a2 was quiet, common and at 81, 50 for bump Boca! sind. on hil OLAnaEy continu et aad quotation qu q more or temp Naval Sxeme,—Tho saice 600 bot common rovla at $1 97% per 310 Ibn; 1,000 bbls. crude turpentine, towertve, at $476; and about ‘360 bbls. opirite tarpentine ‘were soldat 430. a 464;c., cash and ime, Tar ‘was quict at SP 75 a $2 87%.
