GALVESTON. TEXAS, J
Monday Evening. January *4, 1*$76. f
Tlie sales of the loading staple to-day were
larger than anticipated, anil amounted to
something over two thousand bales. There
did not ap|M-ar to Ik* any animation in the de-
mand, and the Exchange came to the same
conclusion and reported the market "quiet'*
at unchanged quotation*. Liverpool reported
a steady market for cotton on the spot, with
large sales of American. Arrivals were said to
be " partially 1-ltid. lower," but the quotations
supplied did not indicate tlie change. Havre
reported a steady market at Saturday'*decline.
There was very little life in the New York
spot or future market, but the latter cloned
steady. Quietude was the characteristic of all
other domestic markets.
The receipts at all ports to-day and thus far
this week, show a *harp falling off from last
week's figures, and are also below the figures
for the corresponding week last year.
MOVEMENT Of THE COTTON ('HOP.
The following report of the movement of
the cotton crop, compiled by Mr. Samuel H.
Buck. Secretary of the National Cotton Ex-
change. and addressed to that Iwxly, will be
found unusually interesting, although it js
rather late in coming to hand:
If will lw seen that during the period named
a total of .'17I.ii.Vl bales has been carried over-
land. direct from producers, of which 141,273
have gone direct to spinners, 131,300 to East-
ern delivery ports and W',017 bales are in tran-
sit to the latter.
This large increase in the totals, especially
that of the gross movement, direct from pro-
ducers. which reaches within K2.H17 bales of
the entire amount transported bv the various
overland routes to the East, all last year, has
led me to increased caution in scrutinizing the
various ollieial returns from which the state-
ment is compiled, uud forces the conclusion
that they are near correct as possible.
An important statement in the overland
statement, and one that requires a few words
of explanation, is the large quantity of cotton
represented as in transit from the various
points of crossing on the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers to Eastern delivery polls. This Item in
the last statement amounted to NO,912 bales,
only <V4,30!» of which, it apnears, were received
at the various i>oints of destination during
l>e« ember, leaving $2,543 bales apparently on
the route from points of crossing on the Ohio
ami Mississippi for more than one month, and
swelling the total in transit by rail at the close
of the present month, to W.0I7 bales. An in-
quiry into the facts has developed that the
amounts in transit via Louisville include not
■ >nly cottons that have actually |»assed through,
but such amounts as have Ihmmi billed through
from |M*ints in the South via Louisville, shlp-
ment of same advised at the IxaiisviUe office,
and there entered upon the railroad books.
For all practical purposes the result is, if
auvthing. more advantageous, as it is desir-
uhle to know not merely the total on the way
t roin the ]H>iufs of crossing, but the aggregate
in transit by these routes from all points in
the South.
In obtaining this information lam largely
indebted to Mr. M. H. Smith, General Freight
Agent of the Louisville and Nashville Kail-
rotid, over which line all but a small fraction
of the cotton shipjM'd from Louisville is re-
ceived.
It is also evident that the large increase in
the quantity of cotton freights on various in-
terior routes, mostly occurring during the
months of November and December, has
heavily taxed their earrying capacity, ami con-
tributed in no small degree toward delays in
final deliveries, thus swelling the quantity in
transit.
Across the Mississippi river it will be seen
that the movement by way of St. Louis for
the four months sums up witliiu 4*4S bales
of the aggregate for all last year, while the
shipment* across the river at Hannibal during
the same period exceed the quantity trans-
ported for the twelve mouths ending Sept. 1.
is;:,, by lo,7iU bales.
1 have given special attention to the Phila-
delphia receipts, concerning which, in the ab-
sence of any organization In the cotton inter-
est. there was good reason to believe that ac-
counts hitherto made ui> were incorrect.
The gross receipts at Philadelphia front Sep-
tember 1st to December 31st. 1875, were 77,8.6
bales, inculding 20.343 by rail overland from
producers. 81.11 from Richmond and Peters-
burg. 1 It from New Urleaus. 10,088from Savan-
nah. 7K18 from Charleston, 12.590from Norfolk.
10.910 from Baltimore. 107 from Wilmington,
and 7729 from New York.
I take this occasion to express thanks to Mr.
E. F Ludwig, New York, and Harrison Stiles,
Esq.. Philadelphia, of the Gold and Stock Tel-
egraph Company, for valuable services in cor-
recting the Philadelphia movement and trac-
ing the shioments from Hichmond and Peters-
burg to Baltimore and Philadelphia.

REPLY OF THE RAILROADS.
In a recent issue mention was made of the
sale of grain trans|»orted to this port at a spe-
cial rate made for export only. The belief
expressed at the time that the railroads would
supply a remedy for the injustice to regular
grain dealers as soon as the facts were sub
mitted to them, has elicited the following
prompt reply:
Galveston. January 24, 1876.
/•'>/■<. AVHM- In your issue of the 19th Inst,
under head of " Railroad Rates." iu your
commercial reports, you notice a complaint of
grain dealers regarding what was considered a
discrimination against them. In rates on grain,
from points in Kansas to Galveston. 1 l>eg
leave to sill unit tin* following facts in explana-
tion:
Tne roads interested in this trade made the
low rate of $120 i>»*r car for corn and grain for
the Galveston market, and a still further re
duct ion to 5100 per car on corn seeking this
route to the seaboard for exportation, with
the distinct understanding and agreement on
the part of consignees, that it should be ex
ported. Contrary to this agreement it has
been offered for sale in this market to the dis
advantage of dealers holding grain regularly
shipped for Galveston. As soon as this be
came known, the export rate of $100 was ab-
rogated. and all grain now shipped to this place
bears the Galveston rate.
While tie* roads forming the route over
which this grain Is transported are desirous of
fostering and encouraging the trade, and are
willing and anxious to do all in their power to-
wards bringing it to and tlirough <ialveston.
they desire to have their patrons understand
that they shall all l»e treated alike, and that
under no circumstances will such discrimina
tion be permitted as noticed in your article.
After this date the amount'charged over
$100 per car. on corn Intended for export, will
be refunded when exported on presentation of
bills of lading and clearance receipts.
You will do the companies and their patrons
a favor by making this statement of the matter
known. Yours respectfully.
O. G. MURRAY,
A. O. T. A. G., H. and II. R. R.

Buffalo Scale Co.:
Gentlemen—After a fair trial of your four-ton
scales, I have come to the conclusion to make
to you. unsolicited, the following statement,
which you may use as you see fit:
I have both the Fairbanks and the Buffalo
Scales in use daily, and for convenience and
accuracy I consider the Buffalo Scales, with
Combination Beam attached, far preferable
to any other Scale I have ever seen: while for
beauty of finish I never saw its equal. I cheer-
fully recommend any one desiring to purchase
a Scale to buy the Buffalo Scale, with Combi-
nation Beam.
Respectfully yours.
E. R. HAYDEN, Coal Dealer.
Office of Brode. McIntyre & Co., ^
Memphis. Tknn., Feb. 28, 1875. s
Buffalo Scale Co:
Gentlemen—It is with pleasure that we can
express our entire satisfaction with your
Scales. They are as correct as any in this
city, and probably more so, as the City In-
spector says they are the finest and most ac-
curate that have come under his observation.
We recommend them to all who are in want of
good and reliable Scales. Respcctfnlly yours
BRODE, McINTYRE & CO.
Buffalo, June 25, 1874.
To Whom It May Concern:
We have used the Scales manufactured by
the Buffalo Scale Company in our mills and
elevators for several years. They have given
good satisfaction. We consider them the best
Scales on the market.
Yours, truly,
THORNTON & CHESTER.
Office of H. & B. Herzer. \
Millersburg, O:, Nov. 15, 1874. f
Mr. J. R. Linen, Pres. Buffalo Scale Co.:
Dear Sir—The Forty-ton R. R. Track Scale
put in for us by your Company gives the best
of satisfaction to ourselves and our customers.
We can load a car of grain in about one-fourth
of the time that we could by the old and slow
way of stopping to weigh every draft, and find
it correct and true. The 44 Weeks Combination
Beam"" is also the finest feature in the Scale
line. We do not hesitate in recommending
them as the best Scale we ever saw, and we
are using three of Fairbanks'.
Yours truly,
H. & B. HERZER.
