will find in most cases that arithmetic means, as well as deciles
and medians, have been prepared for him.
The chief sources of data regarding prices and wages in the
United States during the period of the greenback standard are
the two reports from Mr. J. D. Weeks published in Vol. XX of
the Tenth Census, and the ** exhibits" of the Aldrich Report.
The material in Weeks 's reports has never been analyzed with a
view to ascertaining the general drift of the facts which it sets
forth at such length, except for the few years covered by the
** History of the Greenbacks." But the material in the Aldrich
Report was made the basis of elaborate tables of relative prices
and relative wages, compiled under the direction of Professor
Roland P. Falkner. My reasons for re-working this material are
(1) that Professor Falkner did not use the price-quotations for
April, July, and October, or the wage-quotations for July, and
(2) that his methods have been shown by several critics to be
seriously at fault. The new results obtained from this material
are fuller than Falkner 's for the years they cover, and show im-
portant divergencies from his figures in the degree of variation
both of prices and of wages.
In compiling the tables great care has been exercised to guard
against error, and every stage of the w^ork has passed through the
hands of at least two computers. Doubtless errors still remain
undetected ; but I do not think that there can be any of sufficient
magnitude to affect the results appreciably.
To facilitate comparison, all the charts except the first and the
last have been drawn to the same scale and reduced for reproduc-
tion in the same degree. In the two cases noted, index diagrams
on the scale used for the other charts have been provided.
Acknowledgment is hereby made of aid received from the

CHAPTER I.
The Premium on Gold and the Specie Value op the
Greenbacks.
I,— The Gold Markets,
When the New York banks suspended specie payments on
Monday, December 30th, 1861, gold coin at once commanded a
premium in paper money. For two weeks there was no organ-
^ ized market for gold ; but people who desired to buy or sell coin
resorted to the brokers in foreign money. On the 13th of Janu-
ary, however, the New York Stock Exchange began dealing in
gold, a step which put the resources of a highly organized market
at the disposal of those who wished to buy or sell coin or to spec-
ulate in ** futures.'' Dealing in gold continued on the Stock
Exchange until June 21, 1864, when the short-lived law prohib-
iting sales of gold outside of brokers* offices became eflPective.
After this law was repealed transactions on the Stock Exchange
were not regularly resumed, except for a brief period in October,
1869, when the Gold Exchange was clased because of the liqui-
dation following ** Black Friday.*'
Meanwhile other organized markets had been established.
(1) The **Open Board" of stock brokers was a younger rival
of the ** regular" Stock Exchange, and like the latter added gold
to the list of commodities dealt in. Its separate existence came
to an end in 1869, when it was united with the Stock Exchange.
(2) The ** Evening Exchange" began informally when a number
of men formed the habit of meeting in the corridors of the Fifth
Avenue Hotel to continue speculating after the day exchanges
had been closed. An enterprising Mr. Gallagher opened a luxu-
rious room for the use of this company opposite the hotel in
March, 1864. Here gold, together with railway and petroleum
stocks, was bought and sold urltil midnight. This exchange was
2 University of California Publications in Economics, U^^^}- ^
regarded with disfavor by many business men, ostensibly because
speculating both night and day was detrimental to health and
morals. After the discovery of the Ketchum gold-certificate
frauds in August, 1865, the banks and the other exchanges united
to suppress trading at night, by forbidding their members to
frequent Gallagher's room. Accordingly the Evening Exchange
was closed. (3) The market known popularly as the **Gold
Room*' and formally as the **New York Gold Exchange'' grew
out of the operations of a knot of men who began in 1862 to buy
and sell gold in a basement in William Street. As the numbers
and prosperity of the company increased, they moved the * * Gold
Room" several times to«obtain more commodious quarters. After
the Stock Exchange dropped gold from the **call list" in June,
1864, the **Gold Room" became the most important market for
gold in the country and continued such until specie payments
were resumed January 1st, 1879. At first its organization was
very loose; but in October, 1864, it adopted a constitution and
by-laws, and began to elect regular officers. May 1, 1877, it affil-
iated with the Stock Exchange, and was thereafter styled **The
New York Stock Exchange, Gold Department. ' '^
//. — Tables of the Premium on Gold.
The prices of gold in these various exchanges were regularly
reported in the financial columns of the daily papers — often in
much detail. The financial journals — such as Hunt's Merchants'
Magazine, the Bankers' Magazine, and the Commercial and
Financial Chronicle — usually contented themselves with publish-
ing the opening, highest, lowest, and closing prices for each day.
At intervals they compiled summary tables of daily highest and
lowest prices for months or years. Similar tables were included
in the statistical reports of such bodies as the Chamber of Com-
merce of the State of New York, and in the almanacs issued by
various newspapers.
A more detailed record of the price of gold was preserved for
most of the years of the paper standard in an annual publication
issued by Mr. J. C. Mersereau, Register of the Gold Exchange,
^Bankers' Magazine (New York), Vol. 31, p. 989.
1908] Mitchell— Go14, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 3
under the title ** American Gold, 1862- (date of issue).'' This
little volume usually gave for the preceding year the quotation
for gold at ten o'clock and every quarter hour thereafter until
three in the afternoon of each business day, and in all cases it
gave the highest and lowest prices for every business day from
January 13, 1862, when gold was first quoted on the Stock Ex-
change to the end of the previous year.
The tables of daily highest and lowest prices of gold found
in the most important of these sources — namely : the Commercial
and Financial Chronicle, the Reports of the Chamber of Com^
merce of the State of New York, and Mersereau's American Oold
— are in close agreement with each other. Numei*ous small dis-
crepancies exist — the quotations frequently vary by an eighth,
sometimes by a quarter ; but it matters little which set of tables
is followed. Since Mersereau was the official register of the Qold
Exchange, however, his tables take precedence in authority. Ac-
cordingly, Table 1, in the appendix, which gives the daily highest
and lowest prices of gold, is based on '* American Oold, 1862-
1878" — the latest issue of Mersereau's annual I have been able
to find. To guard against repeating the typographical errors
which occur in "^Mersereau 's table I have collated it with the
Chamber of Commerce table and made several corrections. Since
Mersereau's table is not available for 1878, the Chamber of Com-
merce figures, checked by those of the Commercial and Financial
Chronicle, are used for the last year of the paper standard. To
save space the premium on gold is given, instead of the price of
gold in currency; and, to facilitate study of the depreciation in
the specie value of the currency, columns have been added giving
the prices of greenbacks in gold corresponding to the daily highest
and lowest premiums on gold in greenbacks.
Mersereau does not state explicitly from what markets his
quotations are taken ; but comparison with other reports indicate
that they refer to the Stock Exchange for January 13, 1862, to
June 20, 1864, and thereafter to the Gold Exchange, except for
the first part of October, 1869, when the Gold Exchange was
closed and dealings were conducted on the Stock Exchange. The
data for January 1-11, 1862, I have supplied from the financial
columns of New York daily papers.

IIL — Changes in the Premium on Oold and in the Oold Value of
the Greenbacks,
It is unwise to begin the study of the fluctuations in the specie
value of the paper standard by poring over the table of daily
highest and lowest quotations given in the appendix. For the
abundant detail of that table obscures the broader and more im-
portant features of the fluctuations. To make the latter plain
two summary tables are presented here ; one giving data by years,
the other by months and quarters. The columns in these tables
which show average prices are from the computations of Mr.
E. B. Elliott, formerly Actuary of the Treasury. They are based
on the opening, highest, lowest, and closing quotations of each
business day, and are to be found in many of the statistical re-
ports issued by the Treasury Department. The columns showing
highest and lowest quotations are compiled from the table in the
appendix. The chart which accompanies these tables shows for
each month the average value of the greenbacks in gold and the
range between the highest and lowest values. The corresponding
prices of gold in greenbacks are shown in several of the later

charts. The present chart is drawn to two scales; the largjer one
chasen to throw the fluctuations into hi^h relief, the smaller to
show how the same fluctuations appear when represented on the
flat scale used in the charts of relative prices and wages.
These summary tables and the chart show the existence of
four clearly differentiated periods in the fluctuations of the
premium during the 17 years of the greenback standard of value.
The first period begins with the suspension of specie payments
and ends in April, 1865, with Lee's surrender. It is character-
ized by violent fluctuations in the price of gold and high average
premiums. The second period extends from May, 1865, to "Black
Friday,*' September 24, 1869. During these years the gold
market was on the whole quieter than it had been during the
war, the premium averaged much lower than in 1864 and the
early months of 1865, and the range of fluctuations was narrower
— even in 1866, the year when McCulloch's policy of contraction

was checked and when London suffered the Overend-Gurney
panic, and in 1869, the year of ** Black Friday." But despite
many temporary ups and downs there was no permanent reduc-
tion of the premium within this period; for the average gold
quotation of its first month was 135.6 and of its last month 136.8.
The third period begins October, 1869, and extends to March,
1876. This period, when compared with the second, is character-
ized by a much lower average premium and a narrower range of
fluctuations; but it is like the second in showing no permanent
reduction of the premium within its own limits. The average
premium for the last year, 1875, is the same as the average for
the first year, 1870. Doubtless the generally lower level about
which the premium fluctuated during these years was due mainly
to the improvement in the financial credit of the government
caused by the ** public credit" act of 1869, by successful refund-
ing operations, and by the reduction of the principal of the public
debt. That no progressive decline of the premium took place
between the beginning and the end of the period was due to the
fact that the prospect of resumption of specie payments seemed
as remote in 1875 as it had seemed in 1870. The resumption act
bears the date January 14, 1875, to be sure ; but current comment
of well-informed journals shows that at the time of its enactment
it was not taken seriously by the public. One interesting feature
of this period is that the great crisis of 1873 led to a sharp fall
of the premium, despite the fact that the Secretary of the Treas-
ury reissued $26,000,000 of greenbacks which had been with-
drawn by Secretary McCulloch. The final period in the history
of the paper standard extends from April, 1876, to the resumption
of specie payments on January 1st, 1879. It is characterized by
an almost unbroken decline in the premium on gold and a narrow
range of fluctuations. The reason for this decline — at least after
March, 1877, when John Sherman became secretary of the treas-
ury— is obviously found in the effective preparations to execute
the reijumption act of 1875, and the fortunate turn of foreign
trade which facilitated Sherman's operations.
Study of the monthly table of gold quotations, of the chart
which follows, and of the detailed table in the appendix, shows
that each of these four periods contains within it numerous up-

ward and downward movements, some of which extended over
many months and covered a wide range. Thus the first period
shows five well marked subdivisions. (1) January to April,
1862, w^hen the hope of ending the war in the spring was high,
the premium was small and steady. (2) Prom April, 1862, to
February, 1863, there occurred an almost unbroken advance in
the premium connected with the failure of McClellan's peninsula
campaign, the second issue of the greenbacks, the administration's
losses in the autumn elections, Chase's depressing finance report,
Bumside's defeat at Fredericksburg, and the third legal tender
act. (3) From March to August the premium fell, mainly be-
cause of Mr. Jay Cooke's success in selling bonds, the victory of
Gettysburg, and the capture of Vicksburg and Port Hudson.
(4) From September to July, 1864, the premium rose again
because of disappointment over Lee's escape, lack of military
progress, the dilatoriness of Congress in voting taxes, the Treas-
ury's futile campaign against speculators in gold, and the
difficulty in selling bonds. (5) Finally the fall of the premium
from August, 1864, to May, 1865, was brought about by the
victories of Grant, Sherman, and Sheridan which put an end to
the war. Still more detailed study shows minor ups and downs,
varying the general trend, within each of these smaller- periods.^
Investigation of these minor fluctuations in the price of gold
would be of slight interest without a thorough-going attempt to
find the multifarious causes which produced them. But such an
attempt would require the presentation and analysis of much
material which finds no place in the present volume of statistical
tables. The one topic which can be treated on the basis of these
tables Ls the connection between the fluctuations of the price of
gold and the fluctuations of the relative prices of commodities
and labor. And this topic, of course, cannot be taken up until
the tables of relative prices and wages have been presented.
'A detailed account of the fluctuations in the specie value of the green-
backs from 1862 to 1865 is given in A History of the Greenbacks, part ii,

CHAPTER II.
The Prices op Commodities at Wholesale.
I. — Material and Methods,
The primary purpose of the following tables is to provide
material for investigating the influence of the variations in the
specie value of the irredeemable paper standard of 1862 to 1878
upon prices at wholesale. This purpose, together -with the limi-
tations of the available data, determines the chief features of the
tables.
(1) The frequency of wide fluctuations in the premium on
gold makes it desirable to have a table showing relative prices at
brief intervals. The best that can be done in this direction with
the available data is to make a quarterly table. In the exhibits
of the Aldrich Report^ there are 150 approximately complete
series of wholesale price quotations for January, April, July, and
October; or for February, May, August, and November of each
year from 1860 to 1880. To these may be added three similar
series for different grades of wool, compiled by Messrs. Mauger
and Avery. A larger number of series could be found if we were
content with one index number for each year instead of four;
but the gain in comprehensiveness of material would be more
than offset by the diminution in the number of points at which
comparison could be made with the premium on gold.
(2) To compare the fluctuations in the prices of commodities
with the fluctuations in the price of gold it is necessary to treat
the prices quoted at various dates after suspension of specie pay-
ments as percentages of the prices prevailing before suspension.
Since many of the series to be used do not go back of 1860 it is
not possible to use average prices for a decade or five years as the
basis; and since 1861 was a year of marked business depression
and exceptionally low wholesale prices it seems desirable to de-

tion. Report by Mr. Aldrich from the Committee on Finance, March 3, 1893,

pend upon the prices of 1860 alone. Accordingly relative prices
have been computed uniformly upon the basis: actual prices in
1860 = 100.2
(3) Of the 153 available series a large number represent
quotations for slightly different forms of the same commodity, or
for closely related commodities. For example, there are 3 series
for flaxseed, 5 for starch, 2 for pails with two hoops and 1 for
pails with three hoops, etc. To use several series for some com-
modities, while other commodities are represented by but one
series, is a course purposely adopted by certain statisticians — for
example, Mr. Sauerbeck — as a rough method of weighting. But
in the Aldrich Report the commodities represented by 2 or more
series are in many cases of minor importance, and to use all these
series, as Professor Falkner did in constructing his table of
wholesale prices from this material, gives averages weighted in
a manner which cannot be defended.^ Since there is seldom
ground for selecting one of the two or more series in preference
to the others, in all such cases I have computed averages of the
relative prices of the related series and used the resulting series
of averages in making the tables.
To determine what series are so closely related as to require
this treatment is often a delicate task. In doubtful cases I have
preferred to put the commodities into a group rather than to
leave them separate : for example, I have used a single series of
averages to represent the relative prices of all the cotton textiles.
But where prices are quoted for a raw material and products
made from it I have always kept at least two series — for example,
cotton and cotton textiles, corn and com meal, hides and leather,
'In the case of commodities subject to marked seasonal fluctuations of
price I have used the average of the quarterly quotations for 1860 as the
basis. In other cases I have prefcrre<l to maintain, so far as possible, com-
parability ydi\\ the series of relative prices computed under Professor Falk-
ner's direction for Senator Aldrich *8 committee by following his example
in selecting the price of some one month. Usually this month is January;
but in certain instances Professor Falkner deemed the price of some other
month more significant. The relative prices of the different kinds of lumber
for example, are based on the July quotations for 1860. The base used in
each series can be made out by examining the relative prices for the four
quarters of 1860 as shown in Table 2 of the appendix.
" Compare A History of the Greenbacks, pp. 249-254. Falkner 's error in
this respect is being perpetuated by the Bureau of Labor in its table of
relative prices at wholesale since 1890.

the llnetnations which have occurred in the wholesale price-level,
the relative importance of the commodities included in the tables

one of the conventionally accepted topics of discussion among
economic statisticians. Little attention, however, has been paid
to the fact that no single set of averages, whatever their form,
can be an adequate representation of the complex phenomena of
a rise or fall in prices. All that a set of averages can be made
to show is a net result of the diverse fluctuations in the prices of
the commodities for which quotations are available. For some
purposes for which price tables are used this net result may be
all that is required. But whenever the purpose is to make a
thorough examination of changes in prices, any table which gives
only two numbers to represent the relative price-level at dif-
ferent dates is an inadequate device. The variety of the relative
prices of difterent commodities on the same date; their dispersion
over a wide or narrow range ; their concentration around certain
points or within certain limits ; and the variety of changes which
occur between two dates cannot be shown hy such means. Taken
by themselves, indeed, averages represented by single numbers
may be positively misleading in the impressions which they give;
and though this seldom happens in practice with price statistics,
it is the rule that fuller information than averages give would
make the investigation more fruitful. In brief, for the thorough
study of price-movements a form of tables is required which
represents the facts more adequately than does a series of aver-
ages; but w^hich at the same time represents them in such a
systematic form as to give distinct impressions.
After unsatisfactory experimenting w^ith tables and surfaces
of frequency, I devised for this purpose what may be called
tables of deciles.*^ They give for each date the highest and lowest
of the relative prices found among the series used, and also the
points in the scale of relative prices which divide the whole
number of series as nearly as may be into ten equal parts. These
dividing points — the deciles — thus correspond in character to
medians; indeed the fifth decile is the median. To determine
the deciles for any date it is necessary (1) to make out a tally-
sheet which has a scale of relative prices running from the lowest
to the highest relative price appearing on that date; (2) to enter

the number of the series used into successive tenths; (5) to mark
off in the colunni of cumuhitive sums the points which contain
these successive tenths, and (6) to write down the relative prices
opposite these dividing points as the deciles. This process can
be easily followed by examining the specimen tally sheet which is
subjoined.
Most of the tables of deciles are supplemented by ordinary
series of arithmetic means computed from the tally-sheets used
for finding the deciles. The chief purpose in presenting these
arithmetic means is to facilitate comparison with other tables of
prices for the same or different years.
IL— Relative Prices of 9:2 Commodities at Wholesale: 1860-1880,
The results of applying the methods described to the 92 series
of relative prices at wholesale are presented in Table 4. The
column headed '* Number of series'* shows for each date how
nuuiy of the whole number of series liave quotations on that date
from which relative prices can be computed. Generally the num-
ber is less than 92, because many of the original sets of quotations
are not complete for every quarter of everj' year. The other
eohunns are to be interpreted after the following fashion: In
January, 18()5, of the 90 commodities for which relative prices
are available one-tenth had relative prices ranging between 89
and lt)0, a swond tenth had relative prices ranging between 160
and 17l>, a third tenth between 176 and 191, a fourth tenth be-
tween 191 and 200, etc.
On studying the table one finds that the wholesale price-
tluetuations of 1860-1880 were characterized (1^ by extraordin-
ary diversity in the degree of rise and fall of different connuodi-
ties. and (2) by a sti^ongly marked upward trend culminating in
January, 1865, and a stn^igly marked downward trend culminat-
ing in July, 1879. Both of these characteristics require analysis.
The extreme diversity in the price-movements of different
iH>ninuHlitii*s is shown by the wide intervals between the lowest
and highlit relative prices on each date. Some commodity had
a relative price less than liX> on ever>' date except January. 1S66,
and some comnioditv stixxl alxive 3(K> everv date after 1861. The

narrowest range after t861 was 259 points in the scale of relative
prices (October, 1870) ; the widest range was 1321 points (July,
1864, when cotton had a relative price of 1410) ; and the average
range was 422.5 points. The extremely high and extremely low
relative prices are shown, however, by but few commodities. Four-
fifths of the list are distributed over an average range of 94.4
points — less than a quarter of the average extreme range : — and
two-fifths over an average range of but 33.7 points. The aver-
age distribution of the whole number of series over the field cov-
ered by relative prices is shown by Table 5. The diversity in the

price-fluctuations of different commodities is also shown by the
fact that in no case do all the deciles move up or down in the same
decree, and in few cases — especially after 1865 — do all agree even
in the direction in which they move. Usually when the majority
of the deciles are rising one or two are found falling, and vice
versa.
Despite all these diversities in the fluctuations of different
commodities there is no mistaking a general trend in the direction
and, to a less extent, in the degree in which the deciles move
from date to date. Prices were fairly constant throughout 1860,
but fell sharply in the spring and summer of 1861, apparently
because of. the unsettled business conditions due to the secession

01 the Southern States and the prospect of civil war. Towards
autumn a reaction began, probably initiated by larpje government
purchases of supplies. The upward movement continued through
1862, save for a slight backset in April, and through the first
quarter of 1863, the chief cause probably being the advance in
the premium on gold — itself due to the decline in the community's
valuation of the irredeemable paper dollars in which prices were
quoted. It will be noticed that the median did not rise above
100 until October, 1862, though the other deciles indicate a strong
forward movement as early as January. The financial successes
of the spring of 1863 and the militaiy successes of July caused a
great appreciation in the value attributed to the government's
notes and*produced a slight fall in prices ; but this improvement
was only temporary. Prices started upward again late in 1863,
rose rapidly throughout 1864 and reached their maximum in
January, 1865, when 59 out of 90 commodities — almost two-thirds
— were quoted at double or more than double the prices of five
years before. Even during this period of most rapid advance,
however, the upward movement of prices was not without excep-
tions : — the 8th decile shows a decline from July to October, 1864,
and the 9th from October, 1864, to January, 1865.
The end of the war brought a fall of prices almost without a
parallel in violence and generality. The median declined from
216 in January, 1865, to 158 in July, and all the other deciles
went down with it, the smallest decline being 48 points (the 2d
decile). This fall was followed by a reaction in the second half
of the year which carried prices in January, 1866, back about to
the level of April, 1864. From this time on until the autumn of
1871 the general trend of prices was strongly downward, though
the fall w^as by no means uniform and w-as interrupted by several
temporary reactions. The lively speculative movement of the
early 70 's, which caused so sharp a rise in English and Oerman
prices,® interrupted this fall in the United States, though the
advances scored in 1872 and the first part of 1873 were irregular.
After the great crisis of the autumn of 1873, prices began to fall
again — slowly at first, more rapidly after 1874. In January,

1878, the median dipped below 100 for the first time since 1861,
and the fall continued until the middle of 1879. The lowest point
touched by the median was 84 in April, but comparisons of the
other deciles show that the range of prices was on the whole
somewhat lower in the following July.
This great fall of prices between January, 1865, and July,
1879, was coincident wdth irregular appreciation in the specie
value of the paper dollar — an appreciation which reached its
limit with the resumption of specie payments, January 1, 1879.
During these 14 years all the gain in prices made during the four
years of war was lost, and something more. The final movement
of the price-level which the table shows, was due to a cause quite
unconnected with the currency — namely, the European crop fail-
ures of 1879 — and can be discussed better in a later section of
this chapter dealing with the prices of farm products.'
///. — Relative Prices in the United States and Foreign Countries.
When two countries have similar monetary systems and im-
portant business relations with each other, the movements of
their price-levels as represented by index numbers are found to
agree rather closely. This agreement is so strong that similarity
of movement is usually found even when comparisons are made
with materials so crude as index numbers compiled from unlike
lists of commodities and computed on the basis of actual prices in
different years. It is therefore a highly significant fact that the
movements of the price-level in the United States during the years
of the paper standard were almost wholly unlike the contempor-
ary movements of the price-level in England and Germany.
To facilitate comparisons between the movements of the price-
levels in these three countries. Professor Falkner had Sauerbeck's
English table, and Soetbeer's German table recomputed .on the
basis of his own American table — namely, actual prices in 1860 ==
100.® The results — reproduced in Table 6 — show a general agree-
ment between the English and German index numbers and
marked differences between both of these index numbers and the

American index numbers during the period of the greenback
standard. These differences are greatest during the years of high
premiums on gold and decline with the premium as the date of
resumption is approached. After resumption, indeed, the figures
indicate a closer agreement between relative prices in the United
States and Germany than between relative prices in England and

Germany; but this result may be due chiefly to the closer sim-
ilarity of the American and German list of commodities.
To show more fully the peculiarity of the American price-
fluctuations during the period of the paper standard, I have com-
piled tables of deciles from Sauerbeck's and Soetbeer's series re-
computed on the basis of prices in 1860. The rough comparison
which can be made between these tables — 7 and 8 — and the
similar table for the United States — 4 — ^suffices to show that, the
American movement was unlike the European not only in net
effect, but also in range and distribution of fluctuations. This
fact is brought out more clearly by Table 9, w^hich shows the
averages of the several deciles in each of the tables and the aver-
age intervals between them. Such an exhibit would possess little
significance were the American deciles sometimes above and some-
times below the corresponding foreign deciles ; but since they are

above almost all the time the table has a certain value as express-
ing the broad differences between American and foreign condi-
tions. The comparisons between the English and German price-
movements suggested by the table, however, must be made with
many reservations, because in this case the differences are some-
times in favor of one country, sometimes in favor of the other.
A more accurate, though narrower, basis for comparison may
be had by compiling price-tables for identical lists of commodities.
For 27 of the commodities used by Sauerbeck, and for 46 of the
commodities used by Soetbeer, substantially similar American
quotations can be obtained by using averages of four quarterly
quotations as average prices for the year. The relative prices
for all these pairs of commodities are shown in the appendix, and
the general results are shown by Tables 10 and 11. The same
method is applied in Table 12 to show the close similarity in the
fluctuations of English and German prices. This table is com-
piled from the relative prices of 31 commodities which appear in
TABLE 10.
Relative wholesale priees of identical lists of 27 commodities in the United
States and England: by years, 1860-1880.

both Sauerbeck's and Soetbeer's lists. These tables make it clear
that the wide differences shown by Tables 4, 6, 7, and 8 between
American and European price-fluctuations from 1862 to 1878 are
not due to differences in the character and the number of the com-
modities included in Falkner's, Sauerbeck's and Soetbeer's tables.
The close agreement between the English and German figures of
Table 12 leave small room to doubt that the differences between
the American and English figures of Table 10, and between the
American and German figures of Table 11, must be ascribed
mainly to the influence of the paper standard of value.®
IV. — Relative Prices of Commodities and of Gold.
One of the questions of deep interest regarding the price-
fluctuations of the paper standard period is the degree of their
correspondence with the fluctuations in the price of gold. Table
13 is arranged to facilitate a comparison. One s6t of columns
gives the wholesale price figures of Table 4, side by side with
TABLE 13.
Relative wholesale prices of commodities in the United States and the price
of gold : by quarters, 1S62- 1878.

'In such small groups as those used here the median is a rather erratic
form of average, because it is frequently controlled within limits of several
points by the fluctuations of some one or two commodities whose relative
prices happen to fall in the middle of the list. The arithmetic mean is
also erratic, particularly for the years of the war, because it is so much in-
fluenced by cases of extraordinary advance in price, such as that presented
by cotton.

another set giving the corresponding lowest, highest and average
prices of gold from Table 2. The average price of gold for each
month is entered opposite the decile which it most nearly equals,
and the lowest and highest monthly prices are placed as best may
be on either side of the average. Thus the vertical position of
the entries in the columns for gold indicates roughly whether on
any date gold stood above or below the majority of commodities
in relative price. There is^ of course, no objection to this com-
parison between the actual prices of gold and the relative prices
of commodities : for since the price of gold in currency was lOD
before suspension, its later actual prices may be regarded as rela-
tive prices computed on the basis : actual price in 1860 = 100.
A fuller presentation of the data for gold and commodities
is supplied in graphic form by Chart III. The lines running
across the chart show the fluctuations of the deciles and of the
highest and lowest relative prices at wholesale by quarters. The
vertical lines show the extreme range of the gold quotations by
months.
The table and the chart make it clear that the fluctuations in
the price of gold, which attracted so much attention, were much
more moderate than the extreme fluctuations in the prices of com-
modities. The gold quotations lay all the time well within the
MlA^
40 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. 1
outer limits of the field covered by the variations of commodity
prices. If attention be confined to the average prices of gold in
the months for which we have commodities quoted, it appears
that every quarter more than a fifth of our 92 commodities had
relative prices higher than gold, and that every quarter but two —
April, 1865 and October, 1872— more than a fifth of the commodi-
ties had lower relative prices than gold. If the extreme prices
of gold be taken, one more quarter is found when the price of
gold was lower than the 2d decile — April, 1866 — and three cases
appear when the highest price of gold rose above the 8th decile —
October, 1862, January, 1863, and July, 1864. There is no ex-
ception to the rule that the gold quotations lay always inside the
1st and 9th deciles ; — in other words that more than one-tenth of
the commodities had lower relative prices than gold and more
than a tenth had higher relative prices.^**
But the limits set by the 1st and 9th deciles — or even the 2d
and 8th — are wide, and it is interesting to examine the fluctua-
tions of gold within these limits more closely. During the war
gold moved up or down in price more quickly than the mass of
commodities — probably because the market for gold was more
highly organized and more sensitive than the markets for other
goods to the many influences touching the credit of the govern-
ment-notes which formed the money in which all prices were
quoted. When gold was rising in price the majority of com-
modities followed, but more slowly, and its price therefore ad-
vanced above the median, and sometimes, as has been seen, stood
briefly above the 8th decile. When gold was falling in price the
majority of commodities stood still or followed more slowly, and
the gold quotation then dropped below the median, and sometimes
even below the 2d decile.
This more sluggish movement of commodity prices appears
still more clearly after the war. Rapid as was the fall of prices
in the spring of 1865, it was not so rapid as the fall in gold. A
more curious fact is that the price-level for commodities continued
for ten years to be rather higher than the price-level for gold.
From April, 1865 to April, 1875 the median of relative prices was
^"On the use of ''decile,'' see p. 19 above.
• J* - 'Jl

always higher than the highest quotation for gold in January,
April, July or October, and on only one date — July, 1868 — did
gold touch even the 4th decile. On the whole, the average gold
quotations correspond more nearly with the 3d than with any.
other decile during this period. From 1875 to the end of 1878,
however, commodity prices fell on the whole faster than gold, so
that the average gold quotation stood for a time above the 4th
decile, then above the median, and finally above the 6th decile.
It was shown in Chapter I that the history of the gold premium
is divided into four well-marked periods. The first of these periods
— 1862 to April, 1865 — is'also a natural subdivision of the history
of prices. But the same is hardly true of the later periods.
Prices declined with tolerable consistency from 1866 to 1869,
while gold, despite continual ups and downs, maintained substan-
tially the same general level. Again, the last three months of
1869 and the first two months of 1870 marked a turning-point in
the price of gold, but not in the prices of commodities. After
February, 1870 gold fluctuated about a much lower level than
that of 1866 to 1869, but without making any substantial further
decline until 1876. Commodity prices, however, after a slight
and irregular rise in the early 70 's, resumed their downward
trend, and stood considerably lower by the close of 1875 than they
had stood in 1870. Finally, the almost unbroken fall of gold
from March, 1876, to December, 1878 was accompanied by a fall
of prices, but one considerably greater in degree, and this fall
appears to be but a continuation of the decline which had begun
definitely in 1875. The most important turning points in the
history of prices after the war, in brief, are not those of gold —
the close of 1869 and the beginning of 1876 — but the speculative
movements of 1872, the crisis of 1873, and the harvests of 1879.
The tables of the preceding section, showing the wide differ-
ences between the relative prices of identical lists of commodities
in the United States and England and in the United States and
Germany, support the conclusions (1) that the chief cause of the
extraordinary advance in American prices between 1862 and 1865
was the substitution of irredeemable paper for specie as the money
in which prices were quoted, and (2) that the chief cause of the
fall in American prices between 1865 and 1879 was the unsteady
42 University of California Publications in Economics, f Vol. 1
appreciation in the specie value of the paper dollar. These con-
clusions are not inconsistent with the various differences which
have just been pointed out between the fluctuations of commodity
prices and prices of gold. These differences serve only to empha-
size the fact that many other causes besides the varying value
attributed by the community to the government's notes exercised
an influence upon the prices of single commodities and upon the
price-level as a whole. It does not lie within the scope of this
book to inquire what these other causes were ; but the tables given,
while indicating their presence, also indicate their secondary im-
portance.^*
V. — Relative Prices on the Dates of Maximum and Minimum
Prices,
Though Table 4 represents the extraordinary fluctuations in
prices during the period of the greenback standard much more
fully than a table of arithmetic means, it does not present all the
details shown by the material used. To do so it would be neces-
sary to publish the 84 tally-sheets from which the table of deciles
was compiled, each tally-sheet elaborated by writing the names of
the 92 commodities at the proper points in the scale of relative
prices. But though so full a presentation is not feasible, it is.
feasible to present such elaborated tally-sheets for the date when
prices reached their highest point, January, 1865 and when they
reached their lowest point during the subsequent decline, July,
1879 — six months after resumption of specie payments.
In the first of thase tables the prominence of southern ma-
terials and their products among the commodities which show the
greatest advance in prices attracts attention — rice, tobacco, mo-
lasses, tar, turpentine, cotton, and cotton textiles. Associated
with them are a few commodities of which the government was
purchasing large amounts — quinine and lead — , or on which the
rate of taxation was exceptionally heavy — alcohol. But the ca.ses
are not numerous in which the explanation of the divergencies
from the general trend occur at once to one who has not made
a special study of the demand and supply of the commodities
" Discussion of the reasons why wholesale prices corresponded in general
with the fluctuations of the premium and also why the correspondence was
not closer, is reserved for the last chapter.

represented. Indeed, there are cases which contradict casual
expectations. Wool, which might be expected to show a large ad-
vance in view of the scarcity of cotton and large government pur-
chases of uniforms, has a relative price less than the median;
** powder — rifle,'' which might be expected to show the influence
of the great consumption of gunpowder, ranks below the 3d
decile. More important is the observ^ation that, excepting the
cases already noted, there is no apparent difference in kind, place
of origin, or use between the commodities ranking below the
median and those ranking above it. Commodities related in
origin or use — like corn and corn-meal, wool and cotton or wool
and carpets, hogs and salt pork, wheat and oats — are often found
on opposite sides of this dividing line at considerable distances
from each other, while heterogeneous commodities are frequently
found next each other. The upper and lower halves of the list
are about equally miscellaneous in their contents.
Passing from this exhibit for January, 1865, to that for July,
1879, the attention is caught by the great change in the scale of
relative prices. Every decile in 1879, eyen the 1st, is more than
100 points below the corresponding decile in 1865. Only one
commodity in the list shows an increase in price — quinine: and
only one remains stable — matches; all the others fall. It is sig-
nificant that the one commodity which remains stable in price is
raised in rank by the decline of other commodities from a place
below the median in 1865 to the third place from the top of the
scale in 1879. But though the fall in prices was so nearly uni-
versal, it was marked by the usual irregularities in degree. As a
result, the grouping of commodities is greatly changed. To show
the changes more clearly I have introduced into the tables for
each of these dates columns showing (1) the relative prices of
each commodity on the other date, and (2) the group, marked off
by the deciles, to which it then belonged. These columns show
that only H commodities of the 89 for which relative prices are
given on both dates, remained in the same group in 1879 as in
1865, and that 42 commodities crossed from the lower half of
the table in 1865 to the upper half in 1879, or vice versa. But
thLs shifting in relative positions does not produce any clearer
grouping of commodities by kinds, place of origin, or use than

existed in 1865. Unlike commodities are often side by side, and
related commodities are often widely separated. A plausible ex-
planation of the relative price of each commodity could probably
be given by one who had made a technical study of the market
conditions affecting it; but no broad differences are apparent
between the character 6f the commodities in the two halves of the
list. -•
VI. — Relative Wholesale Prices of Farm Products and Other
Commodities.
There is one class of commodities included in Table 4 which
it is interesting to segregate for special study — farm products.
The results of segregation are shown in Table 16 which gives de-
ciles for the 22 commodities produced by farmers, and for the 70
commodities which remain of the original list.*-
According to this table the prices of farm products rose less
promptly under the stimulus of the greenback issues than did the
prices of other commodities. Cotton, tobacco, and rice of course
are exceptions to the rule, and in a table of arithmetic means
would affect the averages strongly ; but in a table of deciles their
eccentricities can disturb nothing but the highest relative prices
and the ninth deciles. Because of the wide seasonal fluctuations
in the prices of agricultural products they are expected to have
higher relative prices than other commodities in January and
April, and lower relative prices in July and October — provided
the average relative prices for the whole year are the same for
both groups. But it was not until 1865 that even the January
figures show farm products distinctly in the lead and this posi-
tion they promptly lost again.
As farm products rose less rapidly during the war, so they
fell less rapidly after the war. Passing above other commodities
in 1867, they remained higher until the middle of 1871. The
speculative movement of the early 70 's was marked by great ir-
regularities in price-fluctuations ; sometimes farm products, some-
times other commodities were higher. But when the price-level
"I have taken ''farm products" in a broad sense, as the following list
shows: corn, wheat, oats, rye, barley, timothy-seed, clover-seed, flax-seed;
beans potatoes; cotton, rice, tobacco; hogs, beeves, hides, sheep, wool; milk,
barter, cheese, eggs.

entered on the rapid decline following the crisis of 1873, farm
products once more moved more sluggishly, and as a result their
relative prices were on the whole higher for every quarter from
1874 to 1879, with the exception of July, 1876, and July, 1878.
In the final movement of the price-level which the table shows,
however, farm products took the lead. This fact was due to the
peculiar character of the conditions which produced the move-
ment. The European harvests of 1879 were very much below
their average in quantity and quality. The result was an enor-
mous export demand for American breadstuffs — a demand so
large that it carried prices very high, despite the large supplies
which an exceptionally favorable season in the United States pro-
vided. The advance in the prices of other commodities was in
large measure a result of this advance in the prices of breadstuffs.
Farmers selling large crops at high prices in their turn bought
very freely and this brisk demand affected directly or indirectly
the price of nearly every commodity.
In Table 16 all of the commodities are treated as having the
same importance. But if it is desired to use the table of prices
of farm products in investigating the business prosperity of the
farmers it is necessary to recognize the wide differences between
different products as sources of income. Estimates for this pur-
pose can be made better if four classes of farmers be taken sep-
arately— (1) grain farmers, (2) stock farmers, (3) dairy farmers,
1908] Mitchell— Gold. Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 55
and (4) cotton planters. Figrures indicating the relative money
value of the more important jjrain crops — based on census returns
of yields in 1860, 1870, and 1880, and price estimates made by
the Department of Agriculture — are published in the Aldrich
Rcport.^^ For the relative importance of cattle, sheep, and hojrs
as farm products I have been able to find no j;ood contemporary
estimates, and have therefore used figures (43.3 per cent, for
cattle, 5.1 per cent, for sheep, 51.6 per cent, for hogs) ba.sed on
census estimates of animals slaughtered on farms and sold by
farmers for slaughter in 1899.** A similar set of weights was
obtained from the Twelfth Census for milk, butter, and cheese;
but I have refrained from using it, because the market for the
most important of these articles — milk — was strictly a local mar-
ket from 1860 to 1880. It would be absurd to treat our single
series of quotations from New York City for milk in the same
way as w^e treat Chicago quotations for wheat or hogs. Finally,
cotton stands by itself and requires no weighting.
For these weighted series there is no point in computing de-
ciles. A farmer's money income is to him a w-hole — not an ag-
gregate of successive tenths in each of which he sees a separate
significance aside from its contribution to the whole. The pur-
pose of the present computations is to approximate the influence
of price-fluctuations on the money incomes of certain classes of
farmers, and the most significant form of average is the arith-
metic mean.
The results, as set forth in Table 17, require no restatement
in words. But it is desirable to enter a warning against taking
the figures too literally. The original data are prices in im-
"Part I, p. 108.

portant markets, but they cannot be assumed to represent the
prices realized by every farmer in the country. For many farm
products we have either no price quotations, or no estimates of
relative importance. Even for the products included in the table
these estimates of importance are merely rou«;h approximations.
Most important of all, variations in the prices of their products is
only one factor in determining: the business prosperity of farm-
ers:— variations in yields are probably more important, and
there are numerous other factors by no means ne^liprible. The
extraordinarily h\^\\ prices of cotton durinj? the war, for example,
do not mean prosperity for the planter.
VII . — Arithmetic Means of Relative Prices at Wholesale — Folk-
ver's and Dun's Index Numbers.
The tables of deciles, on which the main reliance has been
placed in this chapter, have three disadvanta^res : — they are un-
familiar to readei"s, they cannot well be compared with other
tables of relative prices, and they show details with a fullness
which for some purposes is embarrassinjx. It is therefore desira-
ble to supplement the preceding tables with one which pfives the
58 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. 1
eomnion form of average, side by side with Falkner's and Dun's
well-known index numbers.
Concerning the fii*st two eolumns in the following table noth-
ing need be said except that the prices of gold are taken from
Table 2, and the medians from Table 4. The arithmetic means
of the third column have been computed from the tally sheets
m
used in finding the deciles. They are *' simple'' averages of the
familiar type. Objection has frequently been made to arithmetic
means as a form of average for index numbers on the ground
that while relative prices may rise thousands of points above 100,
they cannot fall more than 100 points. An advance on the part
of one series to 500 points may well be regarded as less remarkable
than the fall of another series to 20 ; but the first change would
exercise far more influence on the arithmetic mean than the
second. This objection applies with especial force to a table of
prices for the years of the civil war, when a few commodities like
cotton, alcohol, tar, etc., rose to such extraordinary heights. The
effect of such cases on the arithmetic mean is shown by the fact
that in 9 of the 84 quarters covered by the table the arithmetic
mean equals or exceeds the 7th decile ; in 36 more cases it equals
or exceeds the 6th decile ; in 35 more cases it exceeds the median.
Only three times does it coincide with the median — July, 1860,
January, 1861, July, 1869 — , and only once is it less than the
median — July, 1861. The arithmetic mean, indeed, corresponds
nuich more closely to the 6th decile than to the median, and lies
more often above it than below. ^'^ The median, while not affected
by these cases of extraordinary advance in price, is rather erratic
within limits of several points, because its precise position is often
dependent on the relative price of a single commodity which
stands in the middle of the scale of relative prices. In short,
" The reason why the arithmetic mean is not 100 in January, 1860, is that
the relative prices of a number of commodities, particularly farm products,
were computed on the basis of the average of four quarterly quotations, and
the January quotation is in most eases somewhat higher than the average.
Both the medians and the arithmetic means for 1860 to 1865 in this table
diflFer somewhat from the corresponding figures in Table XIV of A History
of the GreenbackSf (p. 256). The differences are due to changes in the list
of commodities used — necessary in e^ptcnding the table from 1865 to 1880 —
and to changes in the grouping of certain related commodities. Of course
slight changes in the data employed in compiling a table of prices alter the
averages obtained more seriously at a time when the range of variation in
prices is very wide than at a time of comparative stability of prices.

neither form of average by itself is wholly satisfactory ; not only
because neither shows the range and distribution of the relative
prices of the whole list of commodities, but also because neither
is free from arbitrary and unrepresentative influences. A
** smoothed'* curve based on the medians would probably be the
most satisfactory single series of averages; but no single set of
averages tells as much as the table of deciles.
The next two columns in the table show Falkner's familiar
index numbers from the Aldrich Report.^** These index numbers
are arithmetic means made from the relative prices of some 230
nominally distinct commodities. The second series was weighted
by figures drawn from budgets of family expenditure. The dif-
ferences between the single and weighted series is considerable
for the years of the war, but small for most of the later years.
The simple average agrees with the median of the quarterly table
more closely on the whole than with the arithmetic mean ; but the
weighted average agrees more closely with the arithmetic mean
than with the median. From 1862 to 1864, Falkner\s simple
average is higher than the arithmetic mean of the quarterly table
— partly because Falkner did not group in a single series the nu-
merous varieties of cotton textiles, all of which rose violently in
price ; partly because his practice of using July instead of Janu-
ary quotations for certain conmiodities gives these connnodities
higher relative prices in his table than they have for January in
the quarterly table during years when prices were rising rapidly.^^
From 1865 to 1880 his simple averages are always lower than my
arithmetic means. In 1865 the chief reason for the wide differ-
ence is that July quotations are much lower than January quota-
tions. In later years when prices were changing more slowly,
this factor is of less consequence, and the chief reason seems to
be Falkner 's use of slightly different kinds of the same com-
modity as independent series. It so happens that in the cases
where Falkner uses series for several varieties of one commodity
these series rank more often below than above the general aver-
age. Such is emphatically the case in the most conspicuous in-
stance— that of the 25 series for different kinds of pocket knives.

To test the effect of this factor I have recomputed Falkner's in-
dex number for 1880 from his own relative prices after grouping
the closely related commodities as they are grouped in the quart-
erly table, and find that the simple average is 112.8 instead of
106.9. This new result is much closer to the arithmetic mean of
the quarterly table (114) than to Falkner's own average. A
part of the difference between his and my arithmetic means, how-
ever, is due to the inclusion of commodities in Falkner's table for
which quarterly prices are not available, and to the inclusion in
the quarterly table of several farm products put by Falkner in a
separate table.
Falkner 's weighted average is open to two important criti-
cisms in addition to those which may be passed on his simple
average: (1) as has been said, the plan of applying weights
drawn from family expenditures in purchases at retail to series
of relative prices at wholesale is illogical; (2) the articles for
which Falkner had wholesale prices and to which he applied the
weights are in large part not articles which enter into family con-
sumption, but raw materials from which consumption goods are
produced or articles which a family does not consume in any form
— for example, anvils and circular saws.
The last column in the table shows Dun's index number for
July of each year changed into a series of relative numbers on the
basis, July, 1860=100. As originally computed, this index num-
ber professes to show the sum of the actual prices of a large num-
ber of necessary articles each weighted according to annual per
capita consumption in the United States. The relative figures
given in the table show more violent oscillations than any of the
other series. On the whole they differ somewhat less from the
medians than from the arithmetic means of the quarterly table.
The value of Dun's index number, however, as an indication of
changes in the price-level will remain uncertain until its com-
pilers publish the list of commodities used, the sources from which
their quotations were obtained, and the methods by which their
weights were computed.

CHAPTER III.
Prices of Commodities at Retail.
/. — Material and Methods.
The material available for the investigation of fluctuations
in retail prices during the years of the paper standard does not
include so many commodities as the material for wholesale prices,
and was not collected with as much care. The only large collec-
tion of data is the * ' Report on the Average Retail Prices of Neces-
saries of Life in the United States/' prepared under the direction
of Mr. Joseph D. Weeks, and published in volume 20 of the Tenth
Census.^ To gather information Mr. Weeks drew up a special
schedule on which appeared the names of 60 * * necassaries of life"
and spaces for entering their retail prices for the years 1851 to
1880. He sent copies to shop-keepers in a large number of towns,
requesting them to enter the prices of as many of the articles as
they could, and for as many years. The 60 necessaries were sub-
divided into provisions; groceries, etc. (including coal, w^ood, and
oil) ; domestic dry goods, etc. (including boots) ; house-rent, and
board. Spaces were provided for entering the name, address,
and line of business of the person, firm, or corporation making
the return. By way of directions this note was prefixed to the
list of necessaries: **In filling out this table please give retail
prices and prices that will be a fair average for the year, if pos-
sible. If this cannot be done, give prices on or about June 1st
of each year. ' ' At the end of the list there was added : ' ' Please
state if prices are average prices per year or prices on or about
June 1.' '2
Four hundred and nine of these schedules were filled in and
returned to the Census Office by shop-keepers in 16 states ranging
from Massachusetts to Florida and Missouri. Some gave prices
* Hereafter referred to as * * Weeks *8 Report on Retail Prices. * '
* This schedule is not published in Weeks 's Report, but may be found
in Wright and Hunt's Historic and Growth of the United States Census,
(56th Congress, Ist session, Senate Doc. No. 194), pp. 867, 868.
64 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. 1
for only a few years, a few ran back to 1851. Mr. Weeks pub-
lished the returns substantially as he received them without
making any attempt to show the drift of the changes in prices.
For this reason later students of prices have practically ignored
his report. They could not utilize it without a laborious and
expensive process of computing relative prices and striking
averages.
The value of the material collected in this fashion is open to
some doubt. It certainly cannot be used safely to investigate
the retail prices of commodities in different towns at the same
time. For the descriptions of the commodities listed on the
schedules were so brief as to give no assurance that the articles
quoted by different shop-keepers were identical in grade or qual-
ity. Mr. Weeks, however, thought it **fair to presume that in a
given tabulation the price of the same quality or grade of each
article, as near as is possible, is quoted for the different years,
as the report is made by the same person and of the prices at
the same shop. ^'-^ On this assumption the data may be used for
investigating the changes in the level of retail prices from year
to year — though not without serious reservations. It is probable
that the quality of the provisions, groceries, and dry-goods sold
by the same retail shops under the same names, differed more
from year to year than the quality of the staple commodities for
which we have wholesale prices. But this admission detracts less
from the value of the data as material for the study of changes
in the money cast of living than from its value as material for
studving the relations between prices at wholesale and at retail.
For eonsumeis buy the goods which shop-keepers have in stock,
and when a new make of flour or a new pattern of ginghams is
introduced aud sold as a staple in place of the old there is no
objection to usini its price. Indeed, no other course is feasible,
because ino.st consumption goods are continually luidergoing
minor modifications in quality.
Another some of doubt about the data is the accuracy with
which shop-kecpcrsj cornputcd the average prices of the commodi-
ties in which they dealt. The direction to give '* prices that will
be a fair avenge *' 'lie year" is rather indefinite and seems to
" J,( jXil t, p. 'J.

invite rough estimates. But unless the schedules had been filled
in by expert special agents from the census office, it is probable
that explicit directions requiring the making of elaborate com-
putations would have been disregarded. The returns should be
regarded as more or less expert estimates based on inspection
of old accounts rather than as accurate quotations, such for ex-
ample as can be given for the price of a certain grade of wheat on
the Chicago Board of Trade for a particular day. The approxi-
mate character of the individual statements of price matters less
because we have from 6 to 23 series of quotations for every com-
modity included in the following tables.
This description of Weeks 's Report on Retail Prices shows
that it is far from being an ideal source of information. The
field is one, indeed, Avhere the obstacles to satisfactory statistical
treatment are far more formidable than in the field of wholesale
prices or of wages. But this report is the only considerable col-
lection of data available, and the choice lies between using it
and giving up the attempt to learn what effect the paper standard
had on prices at retail and cost of living. Working over the
material increases one^s confidence in its reliability; for the re-
turns from different towns show both the general agreements and
the detailed differences characteristic of price-statistics gathered
from many independent sources. Moreover, the results which
the final tables show are substantially in accordance with expecta-
tions based on other investigations of a similar sort. It would,
of course, be an error to accept the tables as an unimpeachable
index of the precise changes which occurred in the retail price-
level ; but it would be going too far in the other direction to re-
fuse to accept the broad conclusions which they suggest. As
usually happens in such undertakings, it is quite impossible to
state quantitatively the probable margin of error in the figures.
In dealing with the material in Weeks 's report I rejected (1)
all series of quotations not expressly stated to show average prices
for the year, and (2) all series not approximately complete for the
whole period, 1860 to 1880. The number of series left by this
process of elimination was 554. Each one of these series was next
reduced to a series of relative prices on the basis : actual prices in
1860=100. Then all the series of relative prices from different
66 Univers^ity of California Publications in Economics, [Vol. l
towns for the same commodity were averaged. This step left 60
series of relative prices for as many nominally district ** neces-
saries of life.** Next, for reasons similar to those explained in
the chapter on wholesale prices, the series for closely related com-
modities were grroiiped together, and averages were struck for
these groups. Thus the number of series used in making the
tables was cut down from 60 to 36 — or rather to 34 and 35, for the
series for board was not used at all, and the series for house-rent
was used only in the tables of cost of living. The series used, and
the number of sets of quotations on which each series is based,
are shown in Table 19. The names of the 60 ** necessaries'* for

//. — Relative Prices of 34 Commodities at Retail.
Table 20 shows the 36 series of relative prices at retail from
1860 to 1880. Every series without exception shows a marked
advance during the civil war and a marked fall during the 70 *s.
Nine commodities reached their maximum relative prices in 1864,
8 in 1865, 8 in 1866, 2 in 1867, 5 in 1868, and one each in 1869
and 1870. During the subsequent fall of prices 1 commodity
reached its lowest price in 1873, 2 in 1876, 1 in 1877, 4 in 1878,
14 in 1879, and 12 in 1880.*^ Thus the table shows a broad simil-
arity in the character of the price fluctuations of all series, com-
bined with marked diversities of detail. A similar remark may
■
be made concerning the relation between the movements of retail

prices here depicted and the movements of wholesale prices shown
in the preceding chapter. The most striking differences between
the wholesale and retail price movements are that the latter show
a rise instead of a fall of prices in 1861 and in 1866, and fall more
slowly after 1866 and again after the crisis of 1873. This slower
fall left the level of retail prices as compared with 1860 consider-
ably higher than the level of wholesale prices at the end of the
paper-standard period. Whereas in July, 1879, 57 out of 91
series of prices at wholesale had relative prices less than those of
1860, only 5 out of 34 retail series were in a similar position.
A more succinct exhibit of the retail-price movement is af-
forded by Table 21 which gives deciles for the series shown in
Table 20, excepting rent and board. According to these figures
there was a noticeable difference between the movements of retail
and wholesale prices in 1861. More than one-half of the whole-
sale series stand below 100 in April, July and October, while the

great majority of retail prices stand above 100. Probably the
chief reason why the fall in wholesale rates did not extend j2:en-
erally to retail rates is to be found in its short duration. ^Fore
surprising is the fact that retail prices appear to have risen in
1862 and 1863 somewhat more rapidly than wholesale prices.
But in 1864 wholesale prices took the lead. After the war retail
prices fell less promptly than wholesale prices — as was to be ex-
pected. The median, indeed, advanced from 1865 to 1866 ; but all
the other deciles receded slightly. The fall of retail prices,
though relatively slow, was relatively steady and appears not to
have been interrupted, as was the fall of wholesale prices, by the
speculative movement of the early 70 *s. While some one of the
deciles occasionally moved upward, the general trend was unmis-
takably downward until 1879. Finally, the forward movement
of prices in 1880 was much less pronounced in the retail than in
the wholesale trade. The median of retail prices was steadily
above the median for wholesale prices from 1867 to 1880 ; but the
range of wholesale prices was wider and their upper deciles were
generally higher than the corresponding figures in Table 21 until
1878. At the end of the period the relatively slow fall of retail
prices had opened up a wide gap between the two sets of figures
— the median for 1880 standing in one case at 118 and in the
other at about 105 for the year as a whole.®
Greater steadiness of movement on the part of retail prices
usually characterizes comparisons of this sort. But in the pres-
ent case the contrast is exaggerated by the facts, (1) that the
retail quotations used are average prices for each year, while the
wholesale prices are supposedly prices on definite dates; (2) that
all of the series which enter into Table 21 are themselves averages
of a number of sinjzle series, while the same is true of only a part
of the series which enter into Table 4; and (3) that the variety
of articles for which retail prices are available is much less than
in the case of w^holesale prices. These same facts explain the nar-
rower range of fluctuations shown by retail prices and the some-
what higher degree of concentration about the median. If the

method employed in makinp: Table 5 from Table 4, were applied
to make a table showino: the distribution of the relative retail
prices of Table 21 over the field covered by the fluctuations, it
would show the average number of points in the price-scale be-
tween the lowest and highest relative retail prices to be 135.9, as
against 422.5 points in the case of relative wholesale prices. But
the result would be different if, instead of using as the basis of
computation the averages of the different series for the same com-
modities given in Table 21. one should use the different series
themselves. The latter method would give for example an ex-
treme range of 406 points between the lowest and highest relative
prices in 1880, while Table 21 shows a range of only 132 points.
///. — Relative Prices of 21 Commodities at Retail and at Whole-
sale.
The broad comparisons between the movements of prices at
retail and wholesale made in the last section are subject to the
objection that the two lists of commodities are very different. It
is therefore desirable to arrange a comparison between identical
lists of commodities at retail and wholesale. Unfortunately,
there are biit 21 commodities in the retail tables which are sub-
stantially duplicated in the wholesale tables ; and in dealing with
these commodities we nuist assume that averages of the four
wholesale quotations for each year represent average annual
prices. The relative prices of these 21 commodities at retail and
wholesale are shown in Table 22, and a succinct statement of the
net results of the comparison is given in Table 23.
The series for the individual commodities show in most cases
the kind of differences which might be expected — the wholesale
prices exhibit a higher degree of variability from year to year,
more extreme advances, and greater declines. The averages for
all the commodities substantiate the conclusions drawn in the
preceding section. Retail prices rise while wholesale prices fall
in 1861 ; they advance more rapidly in 1862, lose a shade of their
advantage in 1863, and are definitely passed in 1864. After 1866
they fall steadily until 1879, while wholesale prices show an up-
ward turn in 1868 and again in 1873. But the fall of retail
prices, while steadier, is slower so that thev stand in 1879 well

age variations of the relative retail prices of the 21 commodities in
different towns were confined wuthin a narrower range than the
variations of the relative wholesale prices of the same commodi-
ties in central markets.
IV. — Relative Prices of Coymnoditics at Bctail and of Gold.
Chart V, facing p. 78. serves not only to present graphically tlie
movements of retail prices as shown in Table 21, but also to afford
the best attainable data for comparing the fluctuations in retail
prices and in the premium on gold. Its similarity with Chart
III obviates the necessity of special explanation of its meaning.

1908] Mitchell— Gold. Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 11
The differences between the movements of retail prices and of
gold are similar in character to the differences between the move-
ments of wholesale prices and of gold, but more pronounced in
degree. Gold advanced more rapidly in price during the war
than the majority of wholesale prices and fell more rapidly after
January, 1865. Similarly, wholesale prices advanced more rapid-
ly in the latter part of the war than retail prices, and then fell
more rapidly. The result is that the average annual price of gold
stands in 1864 higher than the 7th decile for retail prices, and
then drops sharply to the neighborhood of the 1st decile, where
it remains until resumption of specie payments.^ These wide dif-
ferences between the movements of retail prices and of gold are
due to the fact that the influence of the fluctuations in the gold
valuation of the paper money was comnuinicated to retail prices
at second hand. The more highly organized and more sensitive
wholesale markets show the effects of this influence much more
clearly — though even they were not ruled wholly by this factor.
In their turn retail markets were affected bv the alterations in
wholesale prices — though they also show the effect of other fac-
tors. Thus the influence of fluctuations in the specie value of the
currency appears in greatly modified form in the retail-price
tables.®
V. — Relative Pi-ices of 3:") Commodities at Retail in Eastern and
Western States.
The wide distribution of the towns from which Mr. Weeks
collected his data for retail prices makes it possible to institute
a comparison between the changes in the relative prices of the
same articles in different sections of the northern states. The
grouping of states into east and west used here is arranged in
view of the fact that the w^age-data of the Aldrich Report, an-
alyzed in the next chapter, come almost wholly from towns east
of Ohio. To put the retail-price tables into form for comparison
with these wage-tables, averages of relative prices at retail have
been computed first for the states of Massachusetts, Connecticut,
' The reader may wish to turn again to the explanation of the term * * de-
ciles," p. 19 above.

New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and West Vir-
ginia ; second for the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Mis-
souri, and Kentucky. The method followed in making up these
two sets of averages and constructing tables from them is identical
with the method described in the first section of this chapter,
except that the series for house-rent has been admitted to the
table.
The results, shown in Table 24, indicate that the advance in
retail prices in 1861 was confined to the eastern states. In the
west, as many articles fell as rose in price. In 1862, however, the
rise of prices was somewhat more rapid in the west than in the
east, and from 1863 to 1880 the level in the west was distinctly

was slightly higher than or equal to the western median ; but the

satisfactory quotations were obtained, are published side-by-side.
The differences between the relative prices are often very wide —
particularly in the later years. In 1880, for example, there is a
difference of 140 points between relative prices of hard wood in
Reading, Pennsylvania and Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Other com-
modities show still w^ider ranges of variation — potatoes 150 points,
rye flour 160 points, com meal 161 points, eggs 225 points, and
butter 350 points. These extreme variations in the relative prices
of the same commodity in different towns are all wider than the
variation in 1880 between the lowest and highest of the 34 series
of average relative prices used in making Table 21 (132 points).
But if the average of the extreme differences between the relative
prices of the same commodities in different towns is taken, it is
found to be much less — namely, 94.5 points.
This wide range of variation shows that it w^ould be desirable
to have the average relative prices for each article based on quota-
tions from a larger number of towns ; but it does not throw seri-
ous discredit on the accuracy of the quotations which we do
possess. (1) Wide variations in relative prices at retail are to
be expected in any large collection of data covering a considerable
territory and extending over a number of years. For example, on
looking over the retail-price data of the Eighteenth Annual Re-
port of the Commissioner of Labor I find the relative price of eggs
in 1903, computed on the basis of prices in 1807, varying from 99
in IMontgomery, Alabama, to 183 in Detroit, Michigan. Wider
variations are not necessarily disquieting in a table which covers
a period three times as long, characterized by violent changes in
the general price-level, and beginning at a time when local retail
markets were less closely connected than now. (2) The wide
variations between the relative prices of the same commodities in
different towns in 1880, are due in part to the fact that the dif-
ferences between actual retail prices were reduced between i860
and 1880. In some cases a wide difference in relative prices in
1880 is due solely to the fact that a difference in actual prices
existing in 1860 had been wiped out by 1880. This bringing of
actual prices in different towns into closer harmony is probably
due mainly to improvements in transportation and communica-
tion, and to centralization in the manufacturing and selling of

many commodities, with its accompanying standardization of
grades and closer control over prices. Table 25 has been arranged
to show the importance of this factor. The extreme relative
prices in different towns in 1880 have been entered for each of
Weeks 's 60 necessaries.® Then the differences between the actual

YII, — Relative Cost of Living.
The preceding tables are designed primarily to afford material
for studying the influence of the paper standard on prices at
retail. Accordingly they have been made like the tables of whole-
sale prices, without the use of weights. But when in the next
chapter we begin to study the effects of the paper standard on
the economic fortunes of wage-earners we shall need tables which
show changes in the relative money cost of living. It is there-
fore desirable to construct a second set of retail-price tables in
which each commodity for which we have data is weighted as
nearly as possible in accordance with its relative importance as an
item of cost in the family budget.
Weights for this purpose, readily applicable to the majority
of our series, can be obtained from the detailed statistics of the
expenditures of 2,567 families published in the Eighteenth An-
niial Report of the Commissioner of Labor. The average sums
expended by these families for fresh beef, fresh pork, salt pork,
eggs, milk, butter, cheese, lard, tea, coffee, sugar, rice, potatoes,
and rent can be applied directly as weights to our corresponding
series of relative prices at retail. Other items require the making
of rough estimates and allowances. Mutton and veal are each
given one-half the Bureau's weight for ** other meat''; corned
beef one-half its weight for **salt beef;" wheat flour two-thirds
and rye flour and* com meal each one-sixth its weight for ** flour
and meal;" molasses and syrup each one-half its weight for '* mo-
lasses;" beans one-quarter its weight for ** other vegetables:"
anthracite and bituminous coal each two-fifths and wood one-fifth
its weight for **fuel" ; coal oil one-half its weight for ** lighting."
Soap and starch are arbitrarily assigned weights of 2 and 1 out
of a total of 557. To get weights for textiles and boots is more
difficult. I have had recourse to the table published in the Aid-
rich Report, Part 1, p. 84, showing the relative importance as
items of expenditure of the various articles of clothing purchased
by husbands, wives, and children of working-men 's families, and
have applied the relative figures there given to the less detailed
absolute figures of the Labor Bureau's report, in order to obtain
a new set of weights computed on the same basis as those for the
84 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l
other series. For the series ** men's heavy boots '* I took from
the Aldrich Report only the expenditure of husbands on ** boots
and shoes'' — omitting the expenditure of wives and children.
For the textile series I took from the Aldrich Report the total
of expenditures for husbands' ** shirts," wives' '* dresses, cloaks
and shawls," children's ** dresses, etc." and children's ** shirts.'^
This total I divided between the series for cotton textiles, mous-
selines de laine, and satinets in the proportions of seven-ninths,
one-ninth, and one-ninth respectively. The weights thus allotted
to each of the 35 series are shown in Table 26.
TABLE 26.
Weights allotted to the 35 series of relative retail prices used in making
tables of relative cost of living.
Note. — Proportions of expenditure are based on the ratio 1,000 = $768.54,
which is the average expenditure of 2,567 families for which the Bureau of
Labor obtained detailed budgets. (ISth Annual Report of the Commissioner
of Labor, p. 496 flf.) For further explanations, see pp. 83, 84.

This table shows that the retail-price series, at the weights al-
lotted each, cover about 56% of total family expenditures. The
different classes of expenditure are represented with unlike de-
grees of completeness: — rent and fuel 100% of the total outlay
for these purposes, food 74%, lighting 50%, clothing 21%, other
classes 1.4%. On the basis of the Bureau's estimate of $768.54 as
the average annual expenditure of 2,567 families, the items in-
cluded in our table make $428.58, and the items omitted $339.96.
The omitted items may be expressed as $84 for food, $91 for
clothing, and $160 for a variety of goods — liquors and tobacco,
furniture, insurance, sickness and death, labor unions and other
organizations, amusements, religion and charity, etc.*®
What has been shown regarding the materials at our disposi-
tion makes it clear that a high degree of accuracy cannot be
claimed for tables of relative cost of living constructed from them.
(1) The relative prices for our commodities are computed from
retail price quotations from a small number of towns. This num-
ber ranges from as many as 22 in the case of boots to as few as 4
in the case of anthracite coal. (2) A considerable element of con-
jecture enters into the determination of some of the weights. (3)
All the weights are drawn from budgets collected after 1900 and
applied to prices prevailing in 1860 to 1880» (4) The material
covers but 56% of the total cost of living. Acceptance of the
results at their face value involves the assumption that the re-
maining 44% of the cost of living was subject to the same changes
as our figures show for 56%. (5) The application of a constant
set of weights to series of relative prices over a long period of
*• The Bureau 's figures for 2^567 families, which I use because of their
detailed character, do not show the average expenditure on each kind of
goods noted for all families, but the average expenditure for those families
which bought the goods. It matters little, however, which form of average

years is theoretically objectionable, because changes in the com-
parative cost of different articles leads to more extended use of
some and restricted use of others. These considerations show the
impropriety of accepting the tables which follow as an accurate
index of variations in the cost of living. But, despite their short-
comings, these tables deserve to be regarded as a closer approxi-
mation to such an index than either the unweighted tables of
prices at retail, or weighted tables of prices at wholesale such
as Falkner has constructed.
To show clearly the effects of weighting on the results ob-
tained from the retail-price series, the simple and weighted deciles
are presented side by side in Table 27. In general, the difference
between the two sets of figures is that the weighted set shows less

are made from the same scries, with the addition of one series for house-rent,
by applying the weights shown in Table 26.

mobility, advancing: less rapidly durinp the war and falling less
rapidly after the war. As a result, the price level shown by the
weighted deciles is lower from 1861 to 1870, and higher from 1871
to 1880. For a considerable part of both the earlier and later
periods the differences between the two sets of figures are rather
wide. The weighted medians are 5, 10, even 14 points lower
during the war; then the differences become less, in 1871 they
turn the other way, and gradually the weighted medians become
5, 10, 14 points higher than the simple.
88 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. 1
Yhese differences are due in large measure to the series for
house rent. Excluded from the table of simple deciles, this series
has the greatest weight of any in the weighted table (See Table
26). On turning back to Tables 20 and 21, the reader will see
that this series advanced but slowly during the war, did not reach
its maximum until 1872, and then declined more slowly than most
of the other series, standing in 1880 higher than the 7th decile of
Table 21. With its weight of 160 parts out of 557, the series for
rent covers nearly three-tenths of the cost of living for which we
have data, and is therefore able to determine the position of at
least two and sometimes of three of the deciles in the weighted
table. Up to 1870 it ranks relatively low, fixing the 1st and 2d,
or 2d and 3d, or 1st, 2d and 3d deciles, and giving also the lowest
relative price from 1864 to 1866. In 1871, it advances in relative
rank, and from that year to 1879 it fixes the median together with
the 4th and 6th deciles, or the median and the 6th, or the median,
6th and 7th. In 1880, it stands above the median and fixes the
6th and 7th deciles.
If, now, we compare the figures for cost of living with the
figures for the price of gold we find the differences pointed out in
section iv reappearing in still more accentuated form. The sim-
ple deciles for retail prices were found to rise more slowly than
the premium, then fall more slowly and not so far.'* The weight-
ed deciles, taken as representative of the cost of living, have now
been found to rise still more slowly than the simple deciles, not
to reach so high a point, — to decline more slowly and not so far.
The forces which produced the quick and violent oscillations of
the premium thus appear to have exercised less infiuenee on the
cost of living than on the general level of retail prices. Their
influence is indubitable; but the cost-of-living curve deviates more
radically than the retail-price curve from the form of the gold-
premium curve, primarily because the influence of these forces
encountered the powerful opposition of the sluggish moveiiuMits
of house-rent.
Finally, I have made separate tables for the relative cost of
living in Eastern and Western States, corresponding to the tables
of relative retail, prices in east and west presented in section v.
" See p. 77, al)ove.

The unweighted tables showed a higher level of retail prices in
the West for all years after 1862. The new table shows substan-
tially the same results for the years of the civil war, except that
the difference between the eastern and western levels is in most
cases somewhat wider. From 1866 on, however, the figures for
cost of living in the two sections are in closer agreement than
the unweighted figures for retail prices, and the western level
instead of being uniformly higher, is lower than the eastern
level in 1869 and 1873 to 1875. This change in the results of
the comparison between east and west is primarily due to the
influence of the series for house-rent. Table 29 which gives this
series for east and west separately, shows that relative rents were
higher in the east in 1861 and '62, higher in the west in 1863 to

'65, the same in 1866, and higher in the east in 1867 to 78. The
higher relative rents in the east after the war offset in large
measure the lower relative prices of the smaller items in the
family budget, and so kept the eastern level of cast of living
substantially as high as the western.

VIII. — Arithmetic Means of Relative Prices at Retail and Rela^-
tive Cost of Living.
Table 30 gives the familiar form of average for the most im-
portant tables in this chapter. Arithmetic means are on the
whole rather more satisfactory as representatives of the movement
of retail prices than of wholesale prices, because the series from
which they are computed show fewer and less extreme instances
of very high relative prices. Nevertheless the arithmetic means
stand above the medians more often than they stand below them
— particularly during the civil war. And, as has been remarked
several times, they do not give so correct an impression of the
character of the fluctuations in prices as do the tables of deciles.

CHAPTER IV.
Relative Wages.
For the study of wages during the years of the paper stan-
dard we have two large collections of data — one made in 1892
by the Bureau of Labor for the Senate committee which pre-
pared the Aldnch Report, the other made in 1880 to 1882 by Mr.
Joseph D. Weeks for the Tenth Census. The first collection is
more detailed in that it shows the number and sex of the wage-
earners and reports wages in Januar\' and July of each year; the
second is more extensive in that it covers more industries, more
establishments, and more states. The original data of the first
collection were worked up under the direction of Professor
Roland P. Falkner into the now celebrated tables of relative
wages published in Part I of the Aldrich Report i but the meth-
ods used in constructing these tables were so faulty that I have
thought it necessary to do the whole work over again. The data
of the second collection were published in tabular form by Mr.
Weeks in volume 20 of the Tenth Census without any attempt at
analysis or generalization. Both collections are used in the pres-
ent chapter; but the differences in form make it necessary to keep
the two sets separate. However, a comparison between the gen-
eral results which they yield is made in Section iii.
7. — Tables of Relative Wages Based on Data from the Aldrich
Report.
a. — Scope of the Data.
The series of relative wages computed from data in the ** ex-
hibits'' of the Aldrich Report are published at length in Table V
of the appendix. In order to show succinctly the compass and
character of this material. Table 31 is presented here. The titles
of the industries are given as in the source. The ** establish-
ments'' show the number of different factories, contracting firms,
shops, business or municipal corporations which furnished the

wage-records. ** Series" means a set of wage-quotations cover-
ing the years 1860 to 1880 and showing the pay received by per-
sons of one sex, employed at one kind of work in one establish-
ment. The ** average number of wage-earners'' in each industry
is the average number of persons reported as receiving the wages
specified in January and July of the years 1860 to 1880.
It will be noticed that the material is confined mainly to wages
for manual labor in manufacturing establishments. There are
a few series for extractive industries — lumbermen and quarry«ien
— a few for railway employees, and a few for salesmen — under
dry goods and groceries. There are also 22 series for employees
of **city public works/' but these series represent manual workers
of sorts which contractors might employ. Agricultural laborers
are not represented at all.

6. — Methods of Compiling Tables of Relative Wages.
The series taken from the ** exhibits*' of the Aldrich Report
were copied on separate cards which had spaces for entering the
page from which the data were obtained, the serial number by
which the establishment was designated, the state in which it was
situated, the industry to which it belonged, the occupation and
sex of the employees, and vertical columns for dates, rates of
wages, number of employees, and relative wages computed on the
basis of actual wages in 1860. These cards were classified suc-
cessively according to industries, occupations, and initial wages,
and a distinct set of tables showing medians and deciles was made
for each classification. In all classifications male and female em-
ployees were segregated. To determine the position of the deciles
for any group, all the series belonging to it were listed in the
order of their relative wages on tally-sheets — one for each date —
ruled into columns for relative wages, number of series, number
of employees, and cumulative sums. The cumulative sums
showed the whole number of employees having on the date for
which the tally-sheet was made, relative wages equal to and less
than the relative wage opposite which they stood. When these
cumulative sums had been cast and found correct, the whole num-
ber of employees belonging to the group on the date in question
was divided into tenths, and the dividing points between success-
ive tenths were marked in the column of cumulative sums. The
corresponding relative wages w^ere the deciles. The whole pro-
cess can be readily followed by examining the subjoined specimen
tally-sheet, which shows the distribution of the whole bod}'^ of
wage-earners according to their relative wages on the date when
relative wages were highest.^ An effective check on the ac-
curacy of the work was obtained by constructing total tally-sheets
for all series from the groups resulting from classification by in-
dustries and initial wages, and comparing these total tally-sheets
with each other point by point.
When arithmetic means of relative wages were computed for
* In practice it is convenient to use narrow strips for tally-sheets, and to
make them long enough to include in single column all points in the scale
of relative wages from lowest to highest. This arrangement facilitates
comparison, and the combination of tally-sheets in forming larger groups.
1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880.
95
any group the work was based on the tally-sheets. Each relative
wage was multiplied by the corresponding number of employees,
and the sum of the products divided by the whole number of the
employees.
It will be noted that in making the tally-sheets each series
was entered as having the number of wage-earners reported for
the date which the tally-sheet represented. In many of the series
the number of employees varied widely from date to date. It
would have been easier to compute the average number of em-
ployees represented by each series and to use this number,
instead of the var>'ing actual numbers, in making the tally-sheets

for all dates. But this course would have made the tables repre-
sent the relative wages of an artificially stable body of wage-
earners whose constitution did not change from 1860 to 1880.
I have preferred to regard the changes which the series report
in the numbers of men employed in different industries, estab-
lishments, and occupations, as themselves significant facts w^hich
ought to be allowed to exercise on the results whatever influence
they possess. To keep these changes constantly before the mind,
I have introduced into all the tables based on the Aldrich data
a column showing the numbers employed at each date. Practi-
cally, however, it seems to make little difference which method
of weighting is adopted. Arithmetic means of relative wages for
1860 to 1866 computed in both ways from the Aldrich data, show
a maximum difference of only 4 points on advances of 50 to 60
points.'- Average weights give the higher results, apparently
because employers economize the use of labor which has increased
much in price and use somewhat more of labor which has in-
creased little. In determining which method to choose, or which
set of results to trust when both methods are used, the question
to be answered is: Are the facts more closely approximated by
assuming that no changes have occurred in the relative numbers
of persons employed in different occupations, establishments, and
industries; or by assuming that the changes which did occur in
the cases recorded by the available data were fairly represent-
ative of the broader changes which affected the whole body of
wage-earners ?
c. — Relative Wages of All Employees and of Males and Females.
The result of the application of these methods to the Aldrich
data are presented in their mast general form by Table 33. The
*^ number of series'' noted in the third column is the number of
series which show at least one person employed on the date in
question. This number is never equal to the whole number of
series (527), because at every date several series show no em-
ployees at w^ork. The number of employees is large in 1860 and
'61, falls off early in the war to a minimum of 4,009 in January,

1863, rises unsteadily to a maximum of 7,710 in July, 1871, de-
clines affain during: the years of depression to 4,997 in January,
1876, rises hesitatinp:ly until January, 1880, and finally increases
larprely in July. In most yeai*s it is considerably smaller in
January than in Jul v.
The deciles are to be interpreted in this fashion : Of the
4,009 persons whose relative wa^'cs are reported in January, 1863,
one-tenth were receivin*; wa<res ranging between 54 and 99 per
cent, of the w^ages received by the persons employed by the same
establishments to do the same kind of work in January, 1860;
102 University of California Publications in Economics. [ Vo^- 1
a second tenth were receiving wages equal to 99 or 100 per cent,
of the wages received by the persons employed by the same estab-
lishments to do the same kind of work in January, 1860; etc.
The identity of the seventh and eighth deciles at 125 means that
more than one-tenth of the wage-earners were receiving wages
just a quarter higher than had been paid to the people who were
doing the same kind of work in the same establishments in
January, 1860. The constant factors in the table are (1) the use
of the same set of reports from the same establishments for all
the different dates, and (2) the comparison of wages at every
subsequent date with wages in January, 1860. The variable
factors are the numbers employed and the relative wages received
at different dates.
The table shows that a wide diversity existed in relative wages
at every date after 1861. At every date save one, some one was
receiving wages less than had been paid by the same establish-
ment for the same kind of work in 1860 ; and at every date some
one was receiving twuce, often three times or more, as much as
had been paid in 1860. These extreme cases represent but a small
part of the body of wage-earners ; but even if we take the four-
fifths of wage-earners whose rates of pay fall between the first
and ninth deciles we find a wide though varying range. On the
whole there is no great degree of concentration at any point of
the field, though there is usually some increase in density as the
median is approached. Round numbers, representing common
fractions or multiples of initial wages (such as 125, and 200),
evidently exercise a certain influence. The average distribution
of the whole body of wage-earners over the field for the whole
period is shown in Table 34.
Though these differences between the relative wages of differ-
ent persons at the same date are so striking, they are consistent
with a strongly marked trend of wage-fluctuations, for the differ-
ences are fairly constant from date to date. In other words,
though the deciles are usually separated by intervals of several
points, they generally rise and fall together, maintaining nnich
the same general relations. Thus the table shows an almost uni-
versal rise of wages during the war — though a rise far from equal
to the advance of wholesale or retail prices. After the war the

g:eneral trend continued to be upward, while prices were falling,
with the result that the median for wages rose above the median
for wholesale prices in January, 1867, and above the median for
retail prices in 1869. During the early 70 's several of the deciles
and particularly the medians indicated marked differences be-
tween summer and winter rates. The highest point was reached
in July, 1872, and during this period the medians for wages were
high above the medians for prices at wholesale or retail, though
the upper price-deciles overlapped the lowTr wage-deciles and
generally the median itself. After the crisis of 1873, the prices
of labor fell like the prices of commodities, and touched their
lowest point in July, 1879. But even then the median stood at
135, while the median of wholesale prices stood at 85 and the
median of retail prices at 118. Finally, wages rose again under
the stimulus of reviving trade in 1880.
Table 33 also provides material for a comparison between the
relative wages of men and women. The columns for numbers of
series and of employees show that the data for males are much
moi-e abundant. In the majority of the 21 industries, indeed, no
female employt^es are reported ; it is only in the textile industries
that their numbers are important. A more accurate comparison
can therefore be made on the basis of deciles for the separate
104 University of California Publications in Economics, [^'^ol. 1
industries. For the present it is sufficient to notice that from
1863 to 1865 men had their rates of pay increased decidedly
faster. From 1865 to 1870 the relations are irregular; sometimes
men, sometimes women are in the lead; sometimes the differences
are small, sometimes large. But after 1870 women uniformly
have higher relative wages.
d. — Relative Wages in Various Industries.
Reference to Table 31 shows that 12 of the 21 industries of
the Aldrich Report are represented by data too scanty to afford
averages which inspire confidence. In making the tables for
industries, accordingly, these 12 were put together under the
caption *' other industries" and separate re*sultS prepared only
for the remaining 9, which have 451 of the 527 series and 5,339
of the average number of employees (5,733). From these 9
industries the 5 which are most fully represented, viz., cotton tex-
tiles (including ginghams), woolen textiles, metals and metallic
goods, building trades, and city public works, were selected for a
table of deciles; but arithmetic means were prepared also for
stone, railways, and gas.
The deciles for these five industries (Table 35) show that the
diversity in relative wages of different persons at the same dates
is scarcely less marked or less constant in the s('i)ai'ate industries
than in the totals for all industries. The distribution of the
wage-earners over the field of fluctuation of relative wa^j^es is
shown in Table 36. The fact that two or more of the deciles for
an industry are fr(»(]uently identical is due mainly to the fact
that the series for an important occupation in a large establish-
ment often represents more than a tenth of the whole number of
employees in the industry as shown by the data.
This table makes it po.ssible to examine more closely the eri*atic
seasonal movements so noticeable in the medians for all industries
from 1S71-73. These movements are less marked in the industri(»s
singly than in the totals for all industries. City public works
shows no trace of them: buildinir trades has the same iiiedian in
January and July of both 1872 and 1873: metals shows slightly
higher July medians: woolen textiles is in the same case except
for 1872, while cotton textiles exhibits considerable differences —

the January medians being higher in 1871 and 1872, and lower
in 1873 and 1874. The only industry which exhibits these move-
ments in more marked degree than the total is stone (not shown
in Table 35). Further, arithmetic means for all industries (see
Table 37, below) make these movements appear much more mod-
erate in degree than do the medians, and so also do the other
deciles. The medians for all industries must, therefore, be held
to give an exaggerated impression of the degree of differences
between relative wages in January and July of these years.
On examining relative wages in the same industry at differ-
ent dates, one finds marked similarity of general trend shown by
the movements of the nine deciles, co-existing with rather wide
and fairly constant intervals between the extreme deciles. Also,
on examining relative wages in different industries on the same
and on different dates, one finds similarity of trend co-existing
with considerable differences in degree of movement. These
latter agreements and differences may be more conveniently
studied in the table of arithmetic means which follows than in
' Including ginghams.

the detailed table of deciles. All of the industries are found to
participate in the advance of wages during the war; all show
higher rates in 1872 than in 1865 ; all show a decided fall in the
later 70 \s; all show an advance in 1880; all show arithmetic
means in July, 1880, varying from 33 to 59 points above the level
for 1860. The character of the differences which co-exist with
these agreements is suflSciently illustrated by the following. state-
ments of the varying maxima attained by arithmetic means for
the different industries and the dates when they occurred.

The preceding table of deciles and the following table of
arithmetic means (Table 38) make it possible to compare the
wages of males and females in the same industries. It appears
that during the years of large enlistments in the army, wages of
men advanced more rapidly than those of women — a rule to
which the one establishment manufacturing ginghams affords a
doubtful exception. But after 1869 the relative wages of women
almost always stand higher, and by the end of the period the
differences in favor of women are wide in all industries.
e. — Relative Wages in Various Occupations.
Table 39 presents deciles for those occupations which are most
fully represented by the material obtained from the Aldrich
Hrport. Most of the occupations are recognized trades; but in
preparation for Table 40 I have also included apprentices and
foremen, to whatever trade they belong, as single series. The
table shows a considerable range of variation in the relative wages
of all the occupations — a range which in most cases is much wider

than that between the medians of different occupations at the
same date. It also shows that all occupations shared in the ad-
vance of wages after the issue of the greenbacks, though in
varying degrees and with varying promptness. Laborers appear
to have fared best during the war, and apprentices, engineers,
and overseers in textile factories to have fared worst. All occu-
pations, except teamsters, also show higher rates in 1872 than in
1865 ; all except overseers in textile mills suffered a decline during
the later 70 's; all except apprentices and painters secured an
advance between July, 1879, and July, 1880 ; and at the last date
all show relative wages ranging from 13 to 71 points higher than
in 1860. The extreme differences between the medians for the
15 occupations exceeded 50 points during the war, rase to 101
points in July, 1869, and receded to an average of about 50 points
in the years of business depression foUow^ing 1873.
The detail of Table 39 is so abundant as to obscure broad
differences. I have therefore grouped the occupations there rep-
resented into four ** grades'* of wage-earners, under the captions
** unskilled laborers,'' *' helpers of craftsmen," ** skilled crafts-
men," and '* foremen and overseers." Various occupations not
represented by enough series to be given a place in the table of
deciles, but which could be definitely assigned to one of these
grades, were also included. The result is to show that until July,
1875, the two higher grades fared decidedly worse than the two
lower grades, though skilled craftsmen were better off than fore-
men and overseers. The relative stability in the wages of foremen
and overseers, which had told against them during the years of
rising wages, told in their favor during the years of falling wages,
and to such an extent that at several dates from 1876 to 1880
they had the highest relative wage of any grade. Skilled crafts-
men, however, show lower relative wages than their helpers
during the years of the fall as well as during the years of the
rLse. As between these helpers and unskilled laborers, the table
shows the latter in the lead from 1863 to January, 1866, and
from January, 1869, to July, 1874, and the former in the lead
from 1875 to 1880. On the whole, the relative wages of unskilled
laborers show greater mobility than fhase of any other grade —
a sharper rise during the war, wider fluctuations in the uncertain

1908] Mitchell— Gold. Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. . 145
years following:, again a sharper rise during the speculative period
preceding 1873, and a quicker and more violent fall after the
crisis. Indeed, from July, 1877, to July, 1880, the unskilled
workers have the lowest relative wages of any grade, though in
the early 70 's they had had the highest^ wages.
/. — Relative Wages of Groups Based Vpan Initial Wages,
The classification of wage-earners according to the actual
wages received at some period is less common in making tables of
relative wages than the classification according to industries or
occupations. But it has quite as much significance as either of
these other classifications; for persons earning low wages form
an economic group differing in important respects from persons
receiving high wages — as is shown, for example, by all large col-
lections of family budgets. Accordingly I have arranged the
■ The deciles for unskilled workers are perhaps unduly influenced by one
series for laborers which represents the pay of a large and widely fluctuating
body of city employees (establishment 35). If this one series be excluded,
helpers of craftsmen are found having higher wages than unskilled laborers
over two-thirds of the time. The validity of the above remark about the
greater mobility of the wages of unskilled laborers, however, is as true of the
revised as of the original series. The effect on the medians of excluding the
series for unskilled laborers is shown by the following figures:

series in five groups, on the basis of the daily rates of wages in
January, 1860, and made both deciles and arithmetic means for
each group.* The lowest of these groups — persons receiving from
25 to 99 cents a day in 1860 — includes all but two of the series
for females ; it is therefore the only group in which it is necessary
to segregate the sexes.
Table 42, which gives the deciles for the five wage-groups,
shows that each of these groups, like each industry and occupa-
tion, has wide diversity of relative wages and consistency of
general trend. All share in the great upward movement culmi-
nating in the early 70 \s, and in the great downward movement
in the later 70 's; all show an advance in 1880, and all end with
relative wages well above the level of 1860. Comparisons be-
tween the variations of relative wages of the several groups can
again be made more easily from the table of arithmetic means.
According to this table, there was a definite relation between
actual wages and increase in rates of wages during the civil war.
The lower the actual wages of a group, the greater was the rela-
* Four series for males and three for females can not be used in this
classification, because the form of statement does not show accurately the
per diem rates.

tive increase in the rates of pay. To this rule there was one
exception ; — persons receiving less than a dollar a day in 1860
received a smaller relative increase in pay than persons receiving
$1.00-$1.49 a day. In A History of the Greenbacks it was sug-
gested that this connection between actual wages and advance of
relative wages was due to the more severe pressure which the
increased cost of living put upon wage-earners with small in-
comes. The apparent exception of persons earning less than a
dollar a day in 1860 was accounted for on the ground that the
family responsibilities of the lowest-paid workers were on the
average less than those of men earning a dollar or more a day.
For this reason the increased cost of living embarrassed the lowest
group less than the next higher group.*^ The plausibility of this
explanation is not diminished by the fact that the symmetrical
movement of the relative wages of the groups is seriously marred
after the war. For the tables of retail prices indicate that the
cost of living declined after 1865 or 1866, and that relative wages
were as a whole higher than relative prices by 1868, if not earlier,
^rom this time on, increased cost of living was not the domi-
nating factor in the situation, and therefore did not produce its

characteristic effects upon rates of wages. During these later
years the lead was held sometimes by men receiving less than a
dollar in 1860, sometimes by the $1.00-$1.49 group, sometimes by
the $2.00-$2.49 group. But all of the time, the highest group
had the lowest relative wages.®
The comparison between the wages of males and females,
afforded by the lowest group, gives the same results as previous
comparisons of the sexes: — men have the higher relative wages
during the w^ar ; the relations vary for the next few years ; women
are always in the lead after 1870. A fairer comparison may be
made, however, by taking smaller wage-groups, because there are
over 40 times as many men as there are women earning 75-99
cents a day in 1860. The table which follows shows the relative
wages of males and of females paid 25-49 and 50-74 cents at the
start. In the lower group males have the higher relative wages
at every date but one until 1879; in the higher group females
have the higher relative wages after January, 1865.
•The large series of laborers (city public works, establishment 35),
which was excluded from the grade of unskilled workers in the note on p.
145, belongs to the wage-group of $1.00-$1.49. The effect of excluding it
here is as follows:

g, — Comparison with Faikner's Tables of Relative Wages.
On comparing? the tables which have been presented with the
tables compiled from the same data under the direction of Pro-
fessor R. P. Falkner and published in Part I of the Aldrich
Report, one finds that they a^ree regarding the general character
of the wage-movements, but differ materially regarding the de-
gree of these movements. The differences in results are due
almost wholly to a difference in method. Professor Falkner
treated each wage-series as having the same importance, whether
it represented the relative wages of one man or a hundred men.
On the other hand, I have weighted each series at each date by
the number of persons whose actual wages the series reports on
that date. Falkner 's method gives averages of the relative rates
of pay for different kinds of work: mine gives averages of the
relative rates of pay of different wage-ear ners.
Since Falkner ^s tables show only arithmetic means it is neces-
sary to confine the comparison to this form of average. My
arithmetic means were computed from the tally-sheets used in
determining deciles, by multiplying each relative wage by the
number of persons receiving it, and dividing the sum of the
products by the total number of persons. This work was done
both with the tally-sheets for industries and the tally-sheets for
groups based on initial wages. The results of the two sets of
computations were corrected by comparison until they agreed
perfectly, so that the chance of erroi's of computation affecting
the result was practically excluded. Further, to make certain
that the slight differences in the series used and in other minor
details did not account for more than a small part of the discrep-
ancies between Falkner 's results and mine, I had arithmetic
means computed from my tally-sheets by Falkner 's method —
that is, by multiplying each relative wage by the number of series
(instead of the number of persons) shown as receiving it, and
dividing the sum of the products by the whole number of series.
This work also was done on the two sets of tallv-sheets and the
r€*sults brought to perfect agreement. These new arithmetic
means for all industries, together with the medians, are compared
in the next table with Falkner 's corresponding averages.
170 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l
The table shows that the new simple averages agree closely
with Falkiier's simple averages. The discrepancy between his
figures and my January figures is less than half of one point in

. the scale of relative wa^es in 13 of the 21 years, and in no year
exceeds 1.7 points. These slight differences arise from the facts
that (1)1 have omitted a few series which Falkner uses, (2) I
have made separate series for males and females in occupations
in which both sexes are employed, (3) Falkner computes relative
wages in some cases on the basis of actual wages in July instead of
in January. But the table also shows wide differences between
both Falkner 's and my series of simple arithmetic means on the
one hand, and the series of weighted arithmetic means on the other
hand. These differences appear as soon as the advance of relative
wages is fairly under way, rise to a maximum of 19 points in
January, 1871, and then fall gradually to less than one point in
January, 1880. The close agreement between Falkner 's simple
arithmetic means and mine, together with the wide divergencies
between my simple and weighted arithmetic means, is conclusive
proof that the difference between his simple and my weighted
arithmetic means is due almost wholly to his failure to take ac-
count of the number of persons whose wages are represented by
the series.
The reason why this difference in method makes large differ-
ences in results is that the series representing but one or two
wage-earners show on the average a less rapid and a less consid-
erable advance in wages up to the early 70 's, and a less consid-
erable fall from the early 70 's to 1879, than do the series repre-
senting relatively large numbers. A much larger proportion of
the small than of the large series represent the wages of foremen,
overseers, and highly paid mechanics ; and Tables 40 and 42 show
that the highest of our four industrial grades and the highest of
our five wage-groups exhibit much less mobility of wages than
do the lower grades and wage-groups. Falkner 's method allows
these relativelv immobile series an influence on the result de-
pending on the ratio between their number and the whole number
of series; my method allows them an influence depending on the
smaller ratio between the number of persons they represent and
the whole number of persons. These ratios in the case of the
highest wage-group, for example, average 5.6 per cent, and 1.2
per cent, respectively. On the other hand, of course, Falkner 's
method gives to the largest wage-group (males earning $1.00-
172 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l
$1.49 per day in 1860), which shows on the whole the highest
range of relative wages, an average weight of 34.2 per cent, on
the results, while mine allows it 41.8 per cent. Further, it ap-
pears to be the case that establishments employing many men,
and therefore represented by large series, advanced wages more
liberally between 1860 and 1872, and reduced wages more sharply
after 1873, than small establishments in the same industries.
Professor Falkner, however, did not rest content with the
simple arithmetic means which have been criticized, but made
also a series of weighted arithmetic means in which he sought to
take account of numbers employed. But in doing so he kept his
old errors of method, and added new errors to them. His method
of weighting was to take the simple averages for 17 of his 21
industries, weight them by figures obtained from the census re-
turns for occupations, and divide the sum of the products by the
sum of the weights. This procedure does not eliminate the orig-
inal errors in the averages for industries; and census tables for
occupations do not give weights properly applicable to industries.^
Moreover, in this process Falkner assigns large weights to some
industries for which his data are too scanty to give reliable
averages. The most conspicuous case is afforded by **dry goods
(stores)," for which he has only three series, coming from a
single establishment, but to which he assigns a weight second
only to that for building trades.^ As it happens, however, this
curiously weighted series of averages approximates the correct
results more closely than does the series of simple averages. But
even Falkner 's weighted figures are much too low for the years
of highest relative wages: — in January, 1871, for example, his
weighted arithmetic mean is 16 points less than the corresponding
average in the new table.®

*Aldrich Beport, Part I, pp. 135 and 176.
• It is not claimed for the new averages that they are necessarily correct
in the sense of showing the actual changes in relative rates of pay of Amer-
ican wage-earners from 1860 to 1880; but that they are the correct averaj^es
for the data presented in the ** exhibits*' of the Aldrich Report. The rep-
resentative character of these averages is discussed in section v. of this
chapter.

h. — Relative Wages in January, 1891,
Falkner's averages for January, 1880, both simple and
weighted, agree closely with the new weighted averages. The
importance of his table as the only considerable body of evidence
regarding the course of wages in the United States between 1880
and 1890, when the Bureau of Labor tables begin, makes it highly
desirable to know whether his latest figures — for 1891 — are nearly
correct, like those for 1880, or far from correct, like those for
1871. Accordingly, I have gone outside the paper-standard
period to compute new averages of relative wages in January,
1891. The results are given in full in the next table, and show

» that both of Falkner's averages for all industries are too high ; —
the simple average by nearly three points and the weighted aver-
age by nearly 11 points.
The errors of Professor Falkner's results may be summed up
as follows: Ilis tables understate the advance in relative wages
from 1860 to 1872; they also understate the fall from 1872 to
1879; and they exaggerate, though less seriously, the rise from
1880 to 1891 — provided always that the data on which they are
based are representative in character. In particular Professor
Falkner s conclusion that when his report was written (1892),
wages were **at about the same point as they were in 1871-72"^*^
is seriously misleading. The arithmetic means computed by more
trustworthy methods from his own data indicate that wages in
January, 1891, were 25 points lower than the average of the
arithmetic means for 1871-72.

//. — Tables of Relative Wages Based on Data from Weeks's
Report of 1880.
a. — Scope and Character of the Data.
In Mr. Weeks 's report, wa^es are ^iveii without specification
as to nmnber of employees, sex, or time of the year. Therefore
some of the most interesting^ features of the preceding tables
cannot be duplicated in the present section, and Falkner's method
of averaging series without regard to the number of persons whose
pay they represent must perforce be adopted. But Weeks 's data
give tolerably full information about several industries not cov-
ered by the Aldrich Report, and enable us to compare wages in
the Northern Central States with wages in New England and
the North Atlantic States. The number of ei5tablishments and
of series is also much larger. Table 48 gives a general conspectus
of the data."
b. — Relative Wages of all Series.
Deciles for the whole body of series from the census are given
in Table 49. It agrees wnth the preceding tables so far as the
general character of wage-changes is concerned. Again we find
a wide range of relative wages at each date, combined with de-
cided similarity in the movements of the several deciles. The
rapid rise of wages beginning in 1863 and extending to 1866;
the slight advance of the next two or three years; the quick rise
of the early seventies; the maximum of 1872; the decline after
1873 to the minimum of 1879, and the final reaction of 1880, are
all shown here as there. The only important difference in direc-
tion of movement is that this table shows a small but general
decline of wages from 1870 to 1871, while the table constructed
from the Aldrich data shows a rise.
While there is thus a close correspondence between the direc-
tion of the wage-movements shown by the two tables, there is a
marked difference in degree of rise and fall. This difference,
however, is due partly to the lack of data regarding numbers
" From the list of census series used in the History of the Greenbacks I
have dropped three, and to it added 21 new series, thus raising the number
to 1447.

represented by the series from Weeks 's report, and partly to the
inclusion of data for new industries and new states. The at-
tempt to eliminate these causes of difference and to make a fair
comparison between the two sets of results can be made better
after Weeks 's data have been analyzed more fully.
Besides the difference in degree of movement indicated from
year to year, there is also a difference in the degree of concentra-
tion of the wage-series at different points of the wage-scale. The
intervals which divide the deciles from each other are somewhat
wider and also more uniform from year to year. This fact,
brought out by the next table, like the slighter degree of change
from year to year is due largely to the absence of data for num-
bers employed.

c. — Relative Wages in Various Industries.
There are ten industries for which Mr. Weeks gives 50 or
more series — enough to make a significant average of relative
wages. Deciles for these industries, in form for easy comparison,
are shown in Table 51. Three of the industries correspond to
industries of the Aldrich Report — cotton textiles, woolen textiles,
and metals and metallic goods — ; the other seven are not repre-
sented at all, or are inadequately represented in the Aldrich data.
This table shows once more the universality of the general
trend of wage-movements, and the differences in degree of change
in different parts of the industrial field. All of these industries
show a marked advance culminating in the later 60 's or the early
70 's, followed by a decided fall in the later 70 's — a fall which
in no case equals the preceding advance. The periods of maxi-
mum wages in the several industries are :
Cotton textiles
Woolen textiles
Tanneries
Paper
Saw mills

But the diversities in detail are quite as striking as the uniformi-
ties in general trend. On the whole, furniture shows the lowest
range of relative wages, and potteries the highest range — though
part of the time tanneries and saw-mills rank above the latter.
d. — Relative Wages of Groups Based on Initial Wages.
This classification of the data produces more regular results
when applied to the Weeks than when applied to the Aldrich
series. In 1863 and 1864 the wage-group * Minder $1'' shows a
lower range of relative wages than the next higher group; but
these are practically the only exceptions to the rule that each
group has lower relative wages than the group below it, and
higher relative wages than the one above it. Once more the rela-
tive mobility of wages of low-priced labor and the relative stabil-
ity of wages of high-priced labor is clearly shown. The contrast
comes out most distinctly in the following figures for the medians
of the several groups in the years of maximum and (later) mini-
mum wages.

TABLE 54.
Average duttribution of wage-series from Weeks*s Beport belonging to five
wage-groups over the field covered by the fluctuations of relative
rates of wages from 1860 to 1880,
Note. — Based upon Table 53. See note upon Table 50.

9th deciles and highest relative wages 225.8 126.7 88.4 93.5 122.9
Lowest and highest relative wages 833.5 288.0 185.6 186.2 234.8
e. — Relative Wages in Eastern and Western States.
The dividing line between east and west for purposes of this
comparison is the eastern boundary of Ohio. AH but one of the
establishments for which the Aldrich Report gives data — an Ohio
gas plant with 7 series — lie east of this line; but almast two-fifths
of the census establishments lie west of it. There are therefore
sufficient data to study the sectional differences in wage-fluctu-
ations.
Table 55 presents Weeks *s series in form for such study. It
shows that, beginning as early as 1861, relative wages in the west
were somewhat higher than in the east. The difference in favor
of the west became very marked in 1863, 1864 and 1865. During
the next four years, however, wages rose more rapidly in the east,
and in 1870 that section took the lead and held it until 1879.
During 1876 and 1877 the difference between the medians in
favor of the east was 10 points, while in 1864 it had been 22 points
in favor of the west. Between 1879 and 1880 wages advanced
more rapidly in the west, so that while the lower deciles and the
median in the final year are higher in the east, the 6th, 7th, 8th,
and 9th deciles are higher in the west.

A glance back at Table 48 shows that there is a wide differ-
ence between the industries of the east and of the west as repre-
sented by our series. It is therefore possible that the higher
western figures during the war, and the lower western figures
after the war, may be due simply to a divergent course of wages
in different industries. To test this supposition, I have computed
deciles for eastern and western establishments in the four indus-
tries which are most evenly divided in our material between the
two sections — furniture, woolen textiles, carriages and wagons,
and machinery — (See Table 57). Furniture shows higher rela-
tive wages in the east even during the war; later the differences
become much wider than in the table for all industries. Woolen
textiles shows the west leading in 1863 and 1864; and the east
leading uniformly from 1865 to 1880. Again the differences in
favor of the east are wider than in the general table. In car-
riages and wagons the west has distinctly higher rates from 1862
to 1866 ; then gradually falls far behind, but regains the lead by
a narrow margin in 1880. Finally, machine shops show higher
western rates in 1862 to 1864, substantial equality in 1865 and
1866, then higher eastern rates to 1880. Confining the compari-
son to series for identical industries thus serves to make the dif-
ferences between the eastern and western wage-movements appear
1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880.

greater in degree. The evidence is so emphatic and so uniform
as to leave little doubt that relative wages advanced more rapidly
in the west during the war, were overtaken between 1865 and 1868
by the advance in the east, and fell far behind during the years
of depression after the crisis of 1873.
Ill, — Comparison between the Tables of Relative Wages based on
Data from the Aldrich Report and the Weeks Report.
Between the tables derived from the material of the Aldrich
Report and the tables derived from the material of the Weeks Re-
port there exist ostensible discrepancies so wide as to shake con-
fidence in the trustworthiness of both sets of results. For ex.-
ample, the medians for 1871 in the two tables which include all
the series from both sources are separated by an interval of more
than 30 points. But the discrepancies between the simple and
weighted arithmetic means of the Aldrich series (Table 46), and
the discrepancies between the medians of Weeks 's series for east-
ern and western states (Table 55), suggest that the divergencies
of the two sets of results are due mainly to formal differences in
the character of the data from which they ar^ derived: namely,
the presence in one case and absence in the other (1) of informa-
tion about numbers employed and (2) of series from states west
of Pennsylvania. To make a just comparison between the two
sets of results, it is necessary to eliminate the influence of num-
bers employed from the averages for the Aldrich data, and to
omit the western series from the averages for Weeks 's data.
This result has been accomplished by computing deciles for
the Aldrich series without regard to the number of wage-earners
whom they represent, and by comparing the results with deciles
for Weeks 's series from eastern states. Table 58, in which the re-
sulting figures are placed side by side, shows a great reduction
of the discrepancies which exist between Tables 33 and 49. For
example, the interval between the medians for 1871 is cut down
from 33 points for January and 40 points for July to 7 and 8
points respectively. The maximum differences between the
medians are now found in 1874 and amount to 12 and 13 points.
But every year after wages had begun to rise, except 1880, the

Aldrich medians stand somewhat higher than the Weeks medians
in January or July, or both. The general agreement between the
deciles other than the median is on the whole surprisingly close,
except in the case of the first decile, which from 1865 to 1875 is
considerably lower in the case of Weeks 's series than in the case
of the Aldrich series.
It still remains to inquire whether part of these remaining
differences may not be due to the fact that the industries repre-
sented by the two sets of data are materially different. Among
the 21 industries nominally included in the Aldrich data and the
30 industries nominally included in Weeks 's data, there are only
three which are well represented in both sets. And of these three
— cotton textiles, woolen textiles, and metals and metallic goods —
the last is rather doubtful because of the uncertainty about the
kind of metallic goods meant. The next table makes a compari-
son between deciles for these three industries. The Aldrich series
are again taken w^ithout reference to number of employees, and
Weeks 's series are confined to the eastern states." In the cotton
" Since there are only 4 western series for cotton textiles out of a total
of 261 series, I have not thought it necessary to compute a new set of deciles
for the eastern states only.

1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880, 217
manufacturing industry the medians for the Aldrieh series show
a somewhat higher range up to 1874 inclusive and in 1878 and
79; in 1875, 76, and '80 Weeks 's medians are slightly higher;
and in 1877 the medians are the same. On the whole, the cor-
respondence between the deciles as well as the medians is closer
than one could expect from two sets of data collected independ-
ently. The comparison for woolen goods shows the medians
practically the same in 1863 and 1864, Weeks 's medians higher
from 1865 to 1877, practical equality again in 1878 and 79, and
Weeks 's medians higher once more in 1880. The differences are
somewhat wider than in the case of cotton goods ; but study of the
deciles as well as the medians shows that the agreements are more
striking than the differences. In the industry — or rather, group
of industries — called ** metals and metallic goods'* in the Aldrieh
Report, the correspondence is fairly close up to 1873 ; but Weeks 's
series indicate a much more sudden drop in wage-rates after the
crisis than do the Aldrieh series. The latter, however, show a
continuous fall until 1879, and in 1880 there is again close agree-
ment between the medians. However, the doubt about the char-
acter of the establishments grouped under this caption deprives
both the agreements and disagreements of much of their signifi-
cance.
The general result of these comparisons is to strengthen the
claim of both sets of figures to recognition as a reliable indication
of the trend and, broadly speaking, the degree of variations in
wage-rates in manufacturing industries from 1860 to 1880. The
substantial agreement of the two sets of data collected at different
dates by different organizations, for different purposes, by differ-
ent methods, for different times in the year, and largely from
different establishments, argues strongly for the representative
character of both sets. This conclusion does not mean, however,
that the tables constructed from Weeks 's data are a reliable index
of average change in the rates at which wage-earners were paid
in manufacturing industries. For Weeks \s data give no informa-
tion about the numbers of the persons whose wages were changed
in varying degrees. They therefore err in the same fashion as
Falkner's table, showing too slight an advance in relative wages

from 1860 to 1872 and too slight a fall from 1872 to 1879. The
real value of the tables made from Weeks 's data is (1) that
they testify to the representative character of the Aldrieh data
for the eastern states; (2) that they establish the conclusion that
wages rose more rapidly in the west than the east during the war,
but less rapidly afterwards; and (3) that they make it possible to
study the course of wages in several industries for which the Aid-
rich Report supplies little or no information.
/y. — Relative Rates of Wages in Other than Manufacturing
Industries.
a. — Wages of Farm Labor,
The preceding tables based on the Aldrieh and the Weeks re-
ports take no account of the largest class of American wage-
earners — farm laborers. This serious gap in our information
can be partially filled, however, by data collected by the federal
Department of Agriculture. In 1866 the department's statisti-
cian, Mr. J. R. Dodge, collected 1,510 statements regarding farm
wages from statistical correspondents of the department, or
county officials, scattered over every state and territory where
farming was carried on to a considerable extent. Similar inves-
tigations were made again in 1869, 1875, 1879 and 1882. The
results were published in tables showing by states the averape
wages of farm laborers **per month for the year or season,'' "per
day in harvest/' and **per day." Further, wages both *'with
board'' and ** without board" were given for each of these three
forms of hiring.^^ Of these returns, the statisticians of the de-
partment seem to regard wages **per month, for the year or
season" as the most significant. Their averages of these rates
for geograi)hical sections both with and without board for the i\ye

The results of these and later investiprations are conveniently presented
in '* Wages of Farm Labor in the I'nited States. Results of Eleven Statisti-

inquiries of 1866 to 1882 are accordingly presented in Table 61."
These figures show a marked fall of wages in all of the geo-
graphical divisions of the country between 1866 ^nd 1879, and
also a less marked rise everywhere except on the Pacific Coast

after 1879. In these respects they agree with the results pre-
viously obtained from the Aldrich and Weeks data for manufact-
uring industries. In another respect, however, there appears to
have been a difference between the fluctuations of wages on farms
and in factories. Farm wages were somewhat higher in 1866
than in 1869 — the Pacific States again excepted — ; but factory
" The geographical divisions used are as follows : Eastern States — Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut; Mid-
dle States-^New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware; Southern States
— Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Ala-
bama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee; Western States —
West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Min-
nesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota,
Pacific States — California and Oregon. The returns for the Mountain States
were too scanty in these early years to be significant, and no returns were
published for Indian Territory or Washington. The averages seem to be
made by weighting the average rates for each state by the number of agri-
cultural laborers employed within it as reported by the census.
220 University of California Publications in Economics, [Vol. l
wages were on the whole higher in 1869 than 1866. The Aldrich
data indicate a considerable advance between these two dates, and
the Weeks data a moderate advance.
These comparisons are limited to the direction in which wages
varied from time to time, and it is desirable to supplement them
by comparisons of the degree of the variations. To do so, how-
ever, is difficult, because all our tables of relative wages in manu-
facturing industries are based on actual wages in 1860. and be-
cause we have but scanty information about farm wages before
1866. Our knowledge is limited to a surmise made by Mr. Dodge
in 1866, and a few old records collected in 1892. In publishing
the results of his first investigation Mr. Dodge wrote, **The result
shows an increase of the rates of wages in five years amounting
to about 50 per cent.,'' and **This is less than the increase of
the cost of living ;''*'^ but he gave no definite data in support of
this view. A belated attempt to supply statistics for earlier years
was made in connection with the investigation of 1892. The De-
partment of Agriculture then requested its correspondents to send
in copies of any accessible wage-records relating to years before
1866. The result was the publication of a considerable number of
fragmentary statements, diverse in fonn, limited in geographical
reference, and applying to widely varying dates.^** No satisfactory
comparisons can be made between these records and the averages
for states published in 1866; but a few series, extending from
1860 to 1865, can be culled from the mass, and the conclusion
deduced that in these particular ca.ses farm wages increased be-
tween 50 and 60 per cent. But the number of these series is so
small that the result has little significance.'' It is not safe to say
more than that wages of farm laborers appear from our scanty
information to have advanced somewhat less rapidly than the
wages of factory laborers during the Civil War.
For 1866 and later years a somewhat luster comparison is
possible. To get figures as nearly comparable as possible with
the data for farm wages, I have collected all the series from botli

the Aldrich and the Weeks reports showing daily wages of ** com-
mon laborers** in 1866, 1869, 1875, and 1879; made averages for
the states whenever five or more series were available, and com-
pared the results with the Department of Agriculture's figures
for wages of farm laborers employed by the day without board.
The averages for both the eastern and western states are made
without regard to the number of employees or number of series,
because these facts are not stated with reference to the figures
for farm laborers. The averages therefore possess little signifi-
cance, except as convenient summaries of the figures for the sev-
eral states. For purposes of computing relative wages, Mr.
Dodge's opinion is adopted that by 1866 wages had risen about 50
per cent, above the level of 1861, and actual wages in later years
are converted into percentages on the basis : wages in 1866 = 150.
The same basis is of course taken for factory laborers; but the
preceding tables indicate that by 1866 laborers employed in fac-
tories had on the average obtained somewhat more than 50 per
cent, increases upon actual wages in 1860 or 1861.
These figures, presented in Table 62, make possible several
different comparisons. (1) The fall in farm wages between 1866
and 1879 was considerably greater than the fall in the wages of
ordinary laborers employed in factories. If Dodge's opinion that
farm wages had advanced about 50 per cent, by 1866 is correct,
the farm hand had lower money wages in 1879 than before the
civil war, while the factory laborer still retained a large part of
the gains made during the paper-standard period. (2) Actual
wages of laborers employed on fanns were higher in 1866 than
actual wages of laborers employed in factories in 8 of the 13 states
for which statistics are given. But in 1879 there was only one
state — Connecticut — where the farm hand had higher wages. (3)
When the eastern and western states are compared, it appears
that the fall in wages between 1866 and 1879 was somewhat great-
er in the west for both farm and factory hands. The figures for
1869 and 1875 indicate that the fall began earlier in the west.
(4) Actual wages of farm laborers were lower in the western than
in the eastern states at all dates ; actual wages of factory laborers
on the other hand were higher in the west in 1866, but were re-
duced below the eastern averages in later years.

li>08] Mitch ell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 223
Our conclusion regarding the general trend of wage-fluctua-
tions must be slightly modified in the light of these data for the
one occupation which is followed by the largest number of Ameri-
can wage-earners. Were we able to include in our general tables
properly weighted series for farm laborers, it is probable that the
relative wages in the latter '60 's would be somewhat lower, and
certain that the decline in the 70 's would be greater and the
final figures for 1880 not so much above the level of 1860.
6. — Salaries of School Teachers,
Among the data collected for the Aldrich Beport were a num-
ber of carefully selected series of figures showing the annual
salaries paid to school teachers in two Massachusetts counties
and in four cities — Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati, and St. Louis.
Only maximum and minimum salaries paid to teachers of differ-
ent grades were taken, because such figures were thought to come
nearest representing pay for work of uniform quality. Table 63
presents relative figures based on actual salaries for each of the
cities and the two country districts, and Table 64 gives deciles for
all the series, except those from Boston, which are omitted be-
cause of the lack of data for 8 years.
The figures show no advance in salaries until 1864. But in
that year the school boards of the four cities and the two counties
granted increases, though these increases were less than the aver-
age of the gains made by the wage-earners for whom the Aldrich
Report gives data — except in Baltimore where salaries had been
so very low in 1860 that a small increase in actual pay appears as
a large relative increase. In the next year Boston and the Mas-
sachusetts counties granted further increases to their teachers;
and after the war was over all four cities and the two counties
made substantial additions to salaries. The scales fixed by Balti-
more and Cincinnati in 1868 were maintained without substantial
change until 1880; in Boston, St. Louis and the Massachusetts
counties the scales were advanced to maxima in 1873, 74, 75, and
76 respectively, and then reduced again. The relative figures
for 1880 stand high above the weighted averages for all industries

of the Aldrich Report in Baltimore, decidedly above in Cincin-
nati, and slightly above in St. Louis and the Massachusetts coun-
ties. The arithmetic means of all series indicate that teachers
were relatively worse off than the average manual worker in
manufacturing industries until 1866, then in about the same
position until 1872, and decidedly better off from 1874 to 1880.
But these arithmetic means are unduly influenced by the high
relative salaries received by female teachers in Baltimore who
had received in 1860 less than $300 per year. It is therefore bet-
ter to compare the deciles and medians of Table 64 with the cor-
responding figures of Table 33. If this be done it appears that
the majority of teachers for whom we have data w^re not so well
off in the matter of relative money wages as the majority of fac-
tory hands until 1875, when the decline in wages in manufactur-
ing industries had gotten well under way. From this time on to
the end they were decidedly better off.
226 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l
In school teachers we have a class of wage-earners employed in
establishments not managed for the sake of pecuniary profits, re-
ceiving annual salaries instead of daily wages, lacking effective
organization to promote their pecuniary interests, and engaged
in an occupation where tradition plays a considerable role. We
should expect, therefore, that their money incomes would be re-
adjusted to a new scale of prices more slowly than in the case of
factory hands, and such is what our scanty statistical materials
show. Because of this relative inelasticity of their money in-
comes, teachers suffered with exceptional severity from the sud-
den rise of prices during the war, and profited exceptionally from
the fall of prices after the crisis of 1873.
T'. — Fluctuations in the Price of Labor Compared with Fluctua-
tions in the Price of Gold, of Commodities at Wholesale, of
Commodities at Retail, and of Cost of Living.
a. — The Representative Character of the Table of Relative Wages
Used in the Following Comparisons.
In comparing the fluctuations in the price of labor during the
years of the paper standard with the fluctuations in the prices of
gold and of commodities, it is best to rely upon the material from
the Aid rich Report. For though the number of wage-series from
this source is little over a third of the number from Weeks^s Re-
port, these series were collected with greater care, refer to definite
months of the year, and show numbers employed. Moreover, the
comparison which has been made between the two sets of wage-
tables shows that they are in substantial agreement with each
other after the formal differences in the character of the materials
have been eliminated.^* It is probable that if Weeks s data showed
numbers employed, the deciles weighted by these numbers would
be as much higher than the present deciles as the weighted deciles
of the Aldrieh series are higher than the simple deciles. The
existing differences between the tables for all industries made
from the two sets of data, therefore, afford no ground for doubt-

ing the approximately representative character of the higher
range of relative wages shown by the tables based on the Aldrich
Report.
But study of the tables based on Weeks 's Report lends em-
phasis to a warning. Our table must be interpreted as showing
changes in relative rates of wages in the New England and North
Atlantic States only. According to the tables based on Weeks's
Report, relative wages in the North Central States were somewhat
higher during the war and somewhat lower during the 70 's than
in states east of Ohio. It is therefore probable that if our ma-
terial from the Aldrich Report covered the northern states from
Maine to Missouri, the deciles for 1863 to 1865 would be some-
what higher and the deciles for 1870 to 1880 somewhat lower.
Regarding wages in states south of the Potomac and west of the
Mississippi we have practically no information. Similarly, study
of farm wages and teachers' salaries emphasizes the warning that
our tables based on the Aldrich Report must be interpreted as
showing wage-changes in a limited number of industries — mainly
manufacturing. It is probable that if we had adequately weight-
ed series for farm laborers and school teachers, we should find
our more inclusive table for all industries showing a less rapid
advance during the war. Whether the fall after the war would
be materially affected by the inclusion of series for both these
groups is less certain; — farm laborers suffered a rapid loss in
wages after 1869 ; but teachers continued to gain until the later
70 *s and then had their salaries reduced in a more moderate
degree than the great mass of manual wage-earners. Probably
the larger numbers of farm laborers would outweigh the influence
of the school-teachers. But there are also large classes of salaried
men and women, such as clerical employees in public and private
offices, and salespeople, whose pay probably varied according to
the school-teacher type rather than the farm-laborer type. Their
inclusion might well keep the farm laborers from depressing the
grand averages for all wage-earners toward the end of the green-
back period much below the level shown by our present tables.
Finally, Table 58, which compares unweighted deciles for all in-
dustries from the Aldrich Report with similar figures relating to
the eastern states only from the Weeks Report, suggests that the
228 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. 1
manufacturing industries omitted from the first source and in-
cluded in the second showed a somewhat lower range of relative
wages than the industries for which the Aldrich Report gives data.
What, then, does our table of relative wages based on the
Aldrich Report represent ? Strictly speaking, it represents only
the variations in the rates of daily wages paid to an average of
between five and six thousand persons employed in a limited
number of industries — chiefly manufacturing — in states north
of Maryland and east of Ohio. But is there warrant for believ-
ing that the changes in the pay of this body of wage-earners are
fairly representative of the changes in the pay of the larger body
of wage-earners for whom the Aldrich Report gives no data?
What we are able to learn from various sources about other im-
portant classes of wage-earners indicates that the inclusion of
data for them in our table would exercise opposing influences on
the result. (1) Probably the advance in wages up to 1865 would
be increased somewhat by the inclusion of data for factory em-
ployees in the North Central States, and diminished somewhat by
the inclusion of data for certain excluded branches of manufac-
turing, for farm laborers, for school teachers, and for other sal-
aried people. (2) Probably the fall of wages after the crisis of
1873 would be increased by the inclusion of data for western fac-
tory hands and for farm laborers, but diminished by the inclusion
of data for school teachers and other salaried people. When these
opposing influences are weighted in the mind, the force of the
depressing factors seems rather greater. On the whole our table,
as an index of changes in rates of wages in states north of the
Potomac and east of the Mississippi, probably errs in the direction
of exaggerating the advance in wages during the war and mini-
mizing the fall in wages during the later '70 's. But there is no
ground for doubting the correctness of the table as a rcpivsenta-
tive of the general type of tlie wage changes wliicli took ])lace
under the greenback standard in that large section of the Tnited
States from which our information comes. Whatever modifica-
tions the table would undergo, could they b(» made all-inclusive,
would be modifications only in degree of movement, and these
modifications in degree would probably be small in com])arison
with the scojie of wage-changes as a whole.

The representative character of our table for all employees
whose wages are given in the Aldrich Report can be improved by
excluding the series for one industry — **city public works."
Though the municipal employees for whom we have data belong
to occupations largely represented among the employees of private
contracting firms, still it is notorious that considerations not of a
. business sort sometimes have much influence in determining the
wages paid by American cities. A glance back at Tables 35 and
37 shows that the fluctuations of wages in this ** industry** dif-
fered widely from the fluctuations in industries where business
motives played a larger role in fixing terms of employment.
From 1863 to 1876 **city public works'* show very high relative
wages ; in July, 1879 very low relative wages. Moreover the num-
ber of employees represented by the city series is subject to extra-
ordinary variations, ranging from a maximum of 2,466 in July,
1860, to a minimum of 260 in January, 1880. These extraordin-
ary variations in numbers exercise an arbitrary influence on the
position of the deciles in the table for all industries. On the
whole, therefore, there is reason to believe that our chief wage-
table will be a fairer index of the course of wages if the 22 series
for **city public works'* are excluded. The result of exclusion
is to give a lower range to the deciles and medians in most years.
That is, the new table used in the following comparisons, differs
from the general table for all industries covered by the Aldrich
Report in the direction which the preceding paragraphs suggest
that it ought to differ.
b. — Relative Wages and the Price of Oold,
The first comparison, that between the price of labor and the
price of gold, can best be made by studying the next chart. The
differences of movement shown there are more striking than the
similarities. Gold advanced in price rapidly though unsteadily
through 1862 and 1863, to its climax in July, 1864; then declined
rapidly though unsteadily till May, 1865, when it stood for a brief
time below the median for wages ; it fluctuated for the next four
years around 140; dropped during the last months of 1869 and
the first months of 1870 to the level of about 113, where it stayed
230 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol, i
until 1876; and finally declined gradually from this level in the
spring of 1876 to 100 at the end of 1878. Meanwhile wages,
though advancing more slowly, continued to advance long after
gold had fallen back from the extreme prices of the war, and did
not reach their maximum until 1871 or 1872. By this time even
the lowest decile for wages stood above the ruling quotations for
gold, and it continued to do so for the rest of the period, despite
the fact that wages declined rapidly after 1873, while gold re-
mained nearly stable in price from 1870 to 1876.
c. — Relative Wa^es and Relative Prices at Wholesale.
The material for comparing wages and wholesale prices is pre-
sented in Table 65 and Chart VII. The short-lived business de-
pression during the winter and spring of 1860- '61 affected wages
less than prices, and so did the changed business and monetary
conditions of 1862. Rapid as was the advance of wages in the
following years it was surpassed by the advance in prices. In
January, 1865, when prices reached their maximum, the 9th decile
for wages was but little higher than the 2d decile for prices.
After that date prices fell, though unsteadily, while wages con-
tinued to advance until July, 1872. The result of these opposite
movements was that in 1872 the median for wages stood 50
points above the median for prices. After July, 1872. both
prices and wages declined and at about the same pace. In July,
1879, when the lowest point was reached, the median for wages
was 51 points above the median for prices. Both moved up again
in 1880, but prices so much faster than wages that the interval
between the medians was reduced to 29 points. In brief, the
differences between the movements of wages and wholesale prices
are like the differences between the movements of wages and gold
in general character, but less extreme in degree.
Another characteristic difference between the two sets of
fluctuations is that wages covered a narrower range and sliowc^d
closer concentration around the median. This fact is graj)liieally
shown bv the chart, and more accuratelv bv the figures of Table
66. Of coui*se the extreme range of wholesale prices is duo in
considerable part to the very high price of cotton during the war;

TABLE 66.
Average distribution of wage-earners represented in Table 65, and of 9S
series of relative wholesale prices, over the fields covered by the
fiuctuations of relative wages and relative wholesale
prices, from 1860 to 1880.
Note. — The figures for wages are based upon Table 65
wholesale prices are taken from Table 5.
Average intervals between
Lowest relative wages or prices and 1st deciles
1st deciles and 2d deciles
2d deciles and 3d deciles
3d deciles and 4th deciles
4th deciles and medians
Medians and 6th deciles
6th deciles and 7th deciles
7th deciles and dih deciles
8th deciles and 9th deciles
9th deciles and highest relative wages or prices
Lowest and highest relative wages or prices
ipon Table 65.

but if the eoraparison be confined to the limits marked by the Ist
and 9th deciles, the average ranges are found to be over 90 points
in one case and less than 60 points in the other case. It should
be added, however, that if our tables for wages had been con-
structed to show the variations in the wages for different kinds
of work, instead of the wages of different wage-earners, the con-
centration around the median would be somewhat less marked.
d. — Kelaiive Wages and Relative Prices at Retail.
Again the data for comparison are presented in the form of
a table and a chart. Retail-price fluctuations have been shown to
deviate from wholesale-price fluctuations in much the same way as
the latter deviated from the fluctuations of gold. When we put
the deciles for retail prices side by side with the deciles for wages^
we therefore find a much closer correspondence than that between
wholesale prices and wages. Retail prices appear to have stood
higher in 1861- '63 in comparison with their level in 1860 than
did wholesale prices, but they advanced less rapidly in 1864 and
1865, and did not reach their maximum until 1866. Thereafter,
also, they fell more slowly until 1879, and rose less sharply in

1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 241
1880. In all these respects their movements are more like the
movements of wages. Still, important differences remain in that
wages advanced from 1866 to July, 1872 while retail prices were
falling ; wages fell more rapidly from 1873 to 1879 than did retail
prices, and exhibited greater changes between 1879 and 1880.
e. — Relative Wages and Relative Cost of Living.
The preceding comparisons between the fluctuations of relative
wages on the one hand and gold, prices at wholesale, and prices
at retail on the other hand, are interesting to students of money
and prices, because they show characteristic differences in the
promptness and completeness with which different classes of
money prices (in the large sense) are readjusted to meet the con-
ditions created by the transition from a monetary standard of
specie to one of irredeemable paper. But they do not answer
well the question of greatest social interest: — namely, How did
the issue of the greenbacks affect the economic fortunes of wage-
earners?
The best w^ay of seeking an answer to this question from our
material is to compare our standard table of wage-deciles with
the arithmetic means of relative cost of living in the eastern
states. The deciles for cost of living represent changes in the
relative money cost of successive tenths of the items which make
up typical workingmen's family budgets. Since a family is in-
terested in the average change in the money cost of what it con-
sumes as a whole, these deciles are of little significance. Further,
the median is clearly a less significant form of average here than
the arithmetic mean; for the latter shows the net result of all
changes in the cost of articles consumed more accurately than the
former. Finally, the figures for the cost of living are for the
eastern states alone, because our table of wages contains prac-
tically no data for establishments west of Pennsylvania. In the
table which presents these two sets of figures the relative cost of
living is placed each year between the January and July wage-
deciles which it most nearly equals. The chart, however, shows
the situation more clearly than the table.
The data indicate that the advance of retail prices in 1861 put
nearly nine-tenths of the wage-earners for whom we have data in
242 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l

1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 245
a worse position than they had held in 1860. In 1862 the situa-
tion became a trifle worse and it did not improve materially until
1866. If our figures give a fair picture of the situation, the pe-
riod of advancing prices must have forced painful economies upon
the vast majority of working-men's families. The low level of
relative real wages in 1865 explains why money wages should
have continued to advance after the end of the war. The decline
of prices in 1866 still left nearly seven-tenths of the wage-earners
for whom we have data worse oflf than in 1860 ; but the greater
fall of prices in 1867, together with the further increase of wages,
reduced this proportion to about four-tenths. The wage-changes
from 1867 on, therefore, cannot be explained as a defence of the
standard of living prevailing in 1860. In other words, the ad-
vance in money wages from 1867 to 1872 represents a real im-
provement in the position of wage earners — very slow from 1867
to 1869, faster in the next two years. After the crisis of 1873,
the figures indicate that rates of wages and money cost of living
declined at about the same pace until 1876 ; but in 1877 working-
men seem to have lost some ground which they did not recover
until 1880. In that year practically four-fifths of the whole num-
ber were in a better position than they had been in 1860, and the
majority in a decidedly better position.
It would be an error, however, to accept these figures of rela-
tive rates of wages and relative cost of living as an accurate indi-
cation of the changes in the economic position of the whole body
of American wage-earners during the years of the paper standard.
First, we cannot assume a high degree of accuracy in our figiires
for cost of living. As was pointed out in Chapter III, the ma-
terials from which they are constructed leave nnich to be desired
in point of fullness. Biit there is no reason to doubt that they
aflford a better indication of the changes in cost of living than the
figures for prices at wholesale or the unweighted figures for prices
at retail. Nor have we anv information which discredits them
as a rough index of the general trend of changes in cost of living.
They woiild have to be proved seriously out of the way to in-
validate the broad conclusion which it is sought to base upon
them.

Second, reasons have been given for believing that our deciles
for wages err by overstating somewhat the advance in rates of
wages during and perhaps after the Civil War, and by understat-
ing somewhat the decline in rates of wages after the crisis of 1873.
Allowance for this probable error can be made, but vaguely, by
saying that the price-changes during the war were probably even
more unfavorable to wage-earners than the figures suggest, and
that the price-changes after 1873 probably deprived wage-earners
of a larger part of the gains made between 1865 and 1872 than
the figures suggest. In these statements the term price-changes
covers, of course, changes both in the prices received by wage-
earners for their labor and the prices paid by them for articles
of family consumption.
Third, to measure changes in the economic prosperity of wage-
earners in a satisfactory fashion by the use of tables of cost of
living, it is necessary to know how the annual money incomes of
wage-earners have changed. This information is not supplied
by tables of relative wages, no matter how accurate they may be.
For variations in constancy of employment are of not less im-
portance in determining changes in wage-earners' incomes than
are variations in the daily rates of pay. Unfortunately we have
no independent information on this subject of sufficiently definite
character to admit of qiiantitative formulation. Our own table,
however, shows that in the 74 establishments which it embraces
marked changes took place in the number of persons employed.
Taking the mean between the figures for January and July of
each year as a basis for comparison, we find the numbers declining
from 1860 to 1863, then increasing until 1872 (except for tem-
porary pauses in 1865 and 1868), falling oil' in the times of de-
pression following the panic of 1873 to a low point in 1876, then
rising slowly till the middle of 1879 and finally leapinji: forward
under the stimulus of the business revival occasioned by the crop
conditions of that year. What we know from other sour(*es re-
garding business conditions from year to year makes it hi<rhly
probable that these changes in numbers employed in our 74 es-
tablishments can be accepted as broadly typical of the business
demand for labor throughout the northern states. P^'rom these
changes in number of employees it is safe to draw certain broad
1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 247
conclusions regarding the relative constancy of employment of-
fered to wage-earners in these establishments. In 1861 the de-
cline in real wages was greater than the comparison between rates
of wages and cost of living suggests, because a considerable num-
ber of men were thrown out of employment for at least part of the
year by the business difficulties which followed secession. The
same remark seems applicable to 1862 and 1863 ; but the decline in
the number of men employed by our business establishments may
have been due, not so much to lack of work, as to large enlistments.
In 1864, however, the still larger numbers of the federal armies
did not prevent oiir establishments from securing a larger force
than they had had in 1860 — though the increase is hardly greater
than might be e^^pected in four years. The improvement in real
wages which Table 69 indicates as following the close of the war,
appears greater rather than less in the light of the data for num-
bers employed. For, except in 1868, a steady increase in the de-
mand for labor and hence in steadiness of employment is indi-
cated. But the conclusion regarding real wages after the crisis
of 1873 requires serious modification. Table 69 indicates that the
position of w^orkmen hardly changed between 1871 and 1876, be-
cause the changes in wage-rates and in cost of living were nearly
the same. From w^hat we know of business conditions, however,
and from what our data for number of employees show, it is
practically certain that during these years wage-earners suffered
a serious decline in real incomes becaiise of lack of work. On
the other hand, there must have been a larger gain in real incomes
after July, 1879, than Table 69 indicates, because of the sudden
increase in the demand for labor.
A summary of these various conclusions about real wages can-
not be made in very definite terms, becaiise we cannot frame
(|iiantitative statements of (1) the changes in constancy of em-
ployment, or (2) of the exaggeration, probably contained in our
table, of the advance in money wages from 1860 to 1872, or (3) of
the probable under-statement of the decline in money wages from
1873 to 1879. But it does seem safe to say this much: (1) Prac-
tically all wage-earners suffered a loss of real wages in 1861, due
in part to an advance in the cost of living without a corresponding
advance in money wages, and in part to a smaller demand for
248 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l
labor. (2) Their condition probably grew worse rather than bet-
ter in 1862, and improved but little in 1863. (3) In 1864, how-
ever, a decided improvement probably took place ; for, though the
cost of living continued to rise as rapidly as the money wages of
factory hands, the demand for labor became greater, and a large
number of salaried people began to get substantial increases in
pay. (4) How 1865 compared with 1864 is uncertain; but in
the years 1866 to 1872 wage-earners undoubtedly made great
gains, and the majority probably attained a position decidedly
better than their fellows had enjoyed in 1860. For money wages
increased on the w^hole, salaries were raised, cost of living de-
clined, and demand for labor was active during most of the time.
(5) These large gains over 1863 and the smaller gains over 1860
were in large measure lost during the years of depression which
followed the crisis of 1873. Our table indicates a substantial
equivalance in the fall of money wages and the cast of living;
but when we combine the more rapid fall of wages in the western
states and among farm laborers with the diminished opportunties
for employment, it appears certain that annual money incomes
diminished much more rapidly than living expenses. It is not
improbable that from 1876 to 1878 wage-earners were on the
whole considerably worse off than they had been in 1860. Sal-
aried people, however, fared better, and the majority who kept
their positions were probably more benefited by the fall of prices
than injiired by reductions of pay. (6) Finally, a quick and
large improvement began in the summer and autumn of 1879.
Wages increased faster than living exi)enses, and demand for
labor suddenly became brisk. The conclusion suggested by Table
69 that wage-earners were in a better position in 1880 than they
had been in 1860 is probably just.

CHAPTER V.
The Inter-relations between the Fluctuations in the Prices
OF Gold, of Commodities at Wholesale, of Commodities
AT Retail, and of Labor.
I. — The Pr-ice-Revolutions of the Greenback Period and their
Causes.
The period of the greenback standard forms a curiously com-
plete episode in the history of American prices. During these
17 years the whole complex system of money prices underwent
two revolutions — fii*st a great rise, then a great fall. The pre-
ceding chapters show that the price-fluctuations of both revolu-
tions were extraordinary in violence, rapidity, variety, and in-
clusiveness. Not only commodities at wholesale — which alone
are commonly taken to represent the price-level — ; but also com-
modities at retail and labor fluctuated in price through wide
ranges. Seldom has a highly organized business community
carried on its transactions for 17 years on the basis of such un-
stable prices.
The chief cause of both these price-revolutions was the mon-
etary policy of the federal government. No other conclusion is
admissible in face of the evidence adduced to show the vast dif-
ference between the fluctuations in wholesale prices of identical
lists of commodities in the United States on the one side, and in
England and Germany on the other side (see Tables 6-11). Be-
fore the war, when a specie standard existed in both the United
States and these countries, the American and European price
levels were in fairly close agreement. Such agreement continued
from 1862 to 1878 between the price levels of England and Ger-
many (Table 12). But suspension of specie payments at the end
of 1861, followed by the i.ssue of the greenbacks early in 1862,
gave the United States a monetary' standard all its own, and per-
mitted American prices at wholesale first to double and then to
fall below their original level at a time when European prices
250 University of California Publications in Economics, l^'^^- 1
varied but little in comparison. So soon, however, as the success
of the effort to resume specie payments became practically as-
sured, the fluctuations of American prices were brought again
into fairly close correspondence with the fluctuations of European
prices.
The deviation of the greenback dollar from its nominal value
in terms of the specie standard existing before 1862 in the United
States, and existing all the time in England and Germany, then,
was the fundamental factor in producing the revolutions in prices.
But there were, of course, other factors which had an effect upon
the price-level of commodities at wholesale and retail, and iipon
the price-level of labor. During the period of the greenback
standard the United States suffered a civil war which seriouslv
deranged the processes of production and consumption; its tax
system was made over to provide revenue for the war and then
revised on the return of peace ; its population increased one-half ;
its agricultural conditions were changed by bringing innnense
stretches of prairie under the plow; its factories multiplied in
number and increased in effectiveness; its railway mileage more
than doubled ; its business men shared in the world-wide specula-
tive movement of the early 70 's, the crisis of 73, and the pro-
found depression of the later 70 s. These changes in the econ-
omic situation would have caused fluctuations of the pri(.'e-level
had the specie standard been maintained without interruption;
they had an eft'ect upon the fluctuations of the price level which
did occur under the greenback standard.
To give an adequate account of prices between the suspension
and resumption of specie payments it would be necessaiy to in-
vestigate these changes and to analyze their economic conse-
quences. A large body of evidence different in character from
what has been presented in the previous chapters would have to
be collected and sifted. Intimate accjuaintance with many mnt-
ters ignored here would have to be gained. The present volume
does not afford a basis sufficiently broad for an aderiuat(^ atM'onnt.
because it is limited to the presentation of material retrnrclinir
different classes of prices. All that is feasible with the statistical
apparatus which has been presented is to discuss (1 ) the relations
l)etween the fluctuations of the specie value of the greenback dol-
1908] Mitchell.— Gold. Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880, 251
lar, as represented by the price of gold, and the fluctuations of
prices at wholesale; and (2) the relations between the fluctuations
in prices at wholesale and the fluctuations in prices at retail, cost
of living, and prices of labor.
//. — Relations between the Price of Gold a)id the Prices of Com-
nwdities at Wholesale.
It was shown in Chapter II that the fluctuations of average
relative prices at wholesale bore a marked resemblance to the fluc-
tuations in the price of gold. This resemblance, however, was only
general. Average relative prices advanced less rapidly than gold
during the war, reached their maximum six months later, declined
much more slowly from 1865 to 1875, and declined faster from
1875 to 1878. Further, even the general resemblance held only
for average relative prices. The relative prices of most com-
modities taken singly differed widely from the movements of gold,
and the relative prices of our full list of 92 commodities continual-
ly covered a much w^ider field of variations than did gold. (See
Chapter II, Section iv).
The purpose of the present section is to explain these facts so
tar as is possible on the basis of the material which has been
presented. No attempt is made to account for the variations in
the specie value of the greenback dollar, for such an attempt
would require full investigation of another field. But, accept-
ing these variations as facts, the question is asked : Why did the
prices of commodities and gold, both expressed in greenback dol-
lars, rise and fall together, and why was not the harmony between
their movements more perfect 1
A causal connection between the premium on gold and whole-
sale prices is clear with reference to two classes of commodities : —
namely, commodities exported from the United States to, or im-
ported into the United States from countries with a specie stan-
dard. For American exporters and importers had to conduct
their business transactions on the basis of specie prices abroad
and the far higher ciirrency prices at home, and the relation be-
tween these two elements in their calculations depended on the
premium charged for gold in New York. The w^hole matter can

be best elucidated by following the series of transactions necessary
in buying and selling such goods.
American importers bought their goods in Eiirope at prices
quoted in specie, and usually paid by remitting bills of exchange
on London, Amsterdam, Paris, or Hamburg. The cost of their
goods in terms of American currency was therefore represented
by the prices which they paid for these foreign bills in New York.
Since these bills were orders for certain sums of foreign monetary
units of gold or silver, their currency prices in New York fol-
lowed the fluctuations in the price of gold.
Tables published in the Annual Reports of the Chamber of
Commerce of the State of New York show how close was the sym-
pathy between the quotations for gold and for foreign bills of
exchange. For example, on the 4th of December, 1863, sixty-
day bankers' bills on London were quoted at 167 to 168, though
the mint par between England and the United States was 109.45%
cents=54 d.^ The wide discrepancy between the quotations and
par was due, of course, to the fact that gold was selling that day
at 152M> to 152%. Dividing the quotation for sterling bills by
the price of gold gives a gold quotation which is close to par, viz.:
109.5 to 110.0 Similarly, bills on Paris were quoted at 3.40 to
3.35, though the mint par was francs 5.18=$1. Multiplying the
quotation by the price of gold gives as the gold quotation for
French bills 5.18 to 5.12. Once more, bills on Amsterdam were
quoted at 611/2 to 62V2. though the mint par was 40.2^^1
guilder. Dividing the quotation by the price of gold gives 40.33
to 40.92. Finally, bills on Hamburg were quoted at 55 to 56,
though the silver marc banco was worth about 36.4^ in American
gold. Dividing by the premium gives as the gold price of these
bills 36 to 37.
To show the degree of accuracy with which the (luotations for
bills of exchange followed the changes of the premium from week
to week it is sufficient to examine the quotations for sterling ex-
change. Table 69 shows (1) the weekly quotations of 60-d:iy
1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880,

bankers' bills on London as published in the Annual Reports of
the Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York; (2) the
prices of gold on the corresponding days from Mersereau's Amer-
ican Gold, 1862-1878; and (3) the quotients obtained by dividing
the first quotations by the second.^ Thesfe quotients are the near-
est approach we can make to gold prices for sterling exchange
from 1862 to 1864. They hover around mint par — 109.45% — ,

' The days of the months in the table are given as in the Reports of the
Chamber of Commerce. In 1864, from March 6 to July 31 inclusive, these
dates fall on Sunday. I have found no notice in the financial journals that
the exchange liouses made quotations for Sunday during these months. Per-
haps the Sunday dates result from a clerical error on the part of the man
who compiled the table in failing to count in the 29th of February; for 1864
was a leap-year. Having no Sunday quotations for gold, I have continued
to use the Saturday quotations for purposes of comparison from March to
July. Beginning with August 1, 1864, the quotations of both exchange and
gold are for Monday.

but sometimes deviate from it further than gold quotations would
have done ; for the dealers in exchange found it difficult to follow
the rapid changes of the gold market. This difficulty became so
serious in the exciting days of 1864 that the exchange houses
dropped the practice of quoting in currency and began to quote
in gold. The latter practice was regularly established for all
classes of foreign bills by January 1st, 1865.
So long, then, as the importer could buy foreign bills at cur-
rency prices in New York, he found that the cost of his foreign
goods in terms of dollars and cents was directly subject to the in-
fluence of the premium on gold. And when exchange dealers be-
gan to quote in gold, the situation was changed in form only.
For then the importers had to pay the current premium for gold
with which to buy the bills of exchange necessary to pay for their
goods.
Since American importers thus found that the cost price of
their goods in domestic currency rose with the premium on gold,
they were compelled to increase the prices at which they sold these
goods in a substantially equal degree. On the other hand, when
the premium fell, the cost of foreign goods to importers declined,
and the latter were able to reduce their selling prices in substan-
tially equal degree without decreasing their profits. Competition,
or a desire to dispose of their stocks quickly, led them to follow
this course. Thus business conditions kept the American prices
of imported goods in close touch with the price of gold.
The sitiiation of the exporter was similar to that of the im-
porter. He bought goods at paper-money prices in the United
States and sold them at specie prices in Europe. To obtain pay-
ment he usually drew bills of exchange on his foreign customer
and sold these bills to exchange dealers in New York. So long
as foreign bills were quoted in currency he received prices which
the above data .show fluctuated with the premium. After bills
began to be (|uoted in gold he received gold which he thereupon
s(»ld at a premium. In either case the exporter's receipts for
goods sold varied with the price of gold. This fact controlled in
large measure the price the exporter could afford to pay for his
goods in the domestic market. When the price of gold declined
the exporter had to charge a higher price abroad or pay a lower
258 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. 1
price at home. When the price of gold rose he could afford to
take a lower price abroad or pay a higher price at home, and com-
petition or the desire to increase his biisiness led him to make one
of these conce&sions. Thus the prices of goods exported in large
(piantities, like the prices of imports, were directly affected by the
fluctuations in the price of gold.
The influence of the premium on the wholesale prices of goods
not imi>orted or exported was less direct. But the fact that the
prices of the great mass of staple exports and imports rose and
fell with gold, was itself a powerfiil factor in producing similar
fluctiuUions in the prices of goods produced and consumed within
the Tnited States. In a modern community the prices of differ-
ent goods constitute a complexly organized system, in which the
various parts are continiially being adjiisted to each other by
intricate business processes. Any marked change in the prices
of important goods disturbs the equilibrium of this system, and
buNinesM pnicesses at once set going a series of readjustments in
tlu» prict»H of other goods to restore it. Thus a cause which direct-
ly atTect« the price of one good only, may indirectly affect the
priccN of many otiier goods. Siich was the case with the premium
(»u gold (hiring the period of the greenback standard. It directly
alTcctiMJ (»nly the prici»s of goods exported to or imported from
ciMUitrics having specie standards; but indirectly it affected the
pi'iccN ol* all goods. Some of the business processes by whi(*li its
ihtlneiice was spread may be .suggested.
I*rires of ctMiiniodities made from materials exported or im-
ported were readjusted to compensate for the change in the ex-
peiiNc nl* producing them. Prices of domestic commodities pro-
iliieed III I'ompetition with foreign goods had an opportunity to
riwe MM \\\v cost oT the latter increased, and were forced down as
the cost t»r the latter declined. Prices of goods capable of ])eing
wiibNlilutrd fiU' wares imported or exi)orted were kept more or less
ill hanniHi.v with the prices of the latter by shifting demand. And
in piMicral, mm of nil classes found that their business and living
e\pciiM»N were im'reascd when they bought imports or exports,
MoimIn \\u\\\v from iImmii, goods made in comi)etition with them, or
HubNtitnlcN for them. These increasing expenses they sought to
recnnp bv charging higher |)rices for whatever they had to sell.
1908] Mitchell— Gold. Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880, 259
It would be most interesting to investigate the varying degrees
of promptness and completeness with which the prices of these
different classes of commodities were readjusted to suit changes in
the premium on gold. But our statistical material is not suffi-
ciently complete to make such an investigation satisfactory.
There would be required for each class of commodities enough
series of quotations to make sure that the average relative prices
for each class were not determined primarily by conditions of
supply and demand peculiar to the commodities included. But
though our material does not suffice for such refined investiga-
tion, it does suffice to show that the influence of the premium on
gold spread over the whole field of wholesale prices, though with
var^'ing degrees of celerity and completeness.
If the reader seeks to test the validity of the preceding state-
ments by turning to the table of the appendix where the series of
relative prices at wholesale are given at length, he may form an
adverse opinion. For he will find hardly one of the 153 series
in which the changes from quarter to quarter correspond ac-
curately with the changes in the premium. But this fact does not
in the least discredit what has been said. For the influence of
business processes was not to produce even rough identity of
fluctuations in the prices of goods and gold ; but rather to make
currency prices differ from what they would have been on a specie
basis by a margin roughly determined by the premium. There-
fore only thase commodities — if there w^re any such — which
would have remained substantially stable in price from 1862 to
1878 could be expected to show fluctuations in currency prices
agreeing closely with the fluctuations in the price of gold. In the
case of imported goods, business dealings tended to adjust whole-
sale prices in American currency to the sum of European specie
prices, plus specie cost of transportation, plus specie import
duties, multiplied by the price of gold. Goods which fell in price
in Europe or goods on which the import duty was reduced, there-
fore tended to advance less in price than did gold; and goods
which rose in price in Europe, or on which the import duty was
increased, tended to advance more in price than did gold. A
similar statement applies to the prices of exports. Regarding
goods other than imports and exports, one can say only that each

commodity was subject to its own particular conditions of supply
and demand, that these conditions would have produced a great
variety of price-fluctuations on the specie basis, and that the in-
fluence of the premium on gold as a price-making factor was in
the direction of producing currency prices equal to these hypo-
thetical specie prices multiplied by the price of gold. It is there-
fore an error to conclude that the connection between wholesale
prices and the premium was of slight importance because com-
modities taken singly diverge widely from the price of gold, or
because the general price tables show regularly a much wider field
of variation than that covered by the premium.
But if business relationships did not force the prices of com-
modities singly to comply with the fluctuations of the premium,
why did the general price-level rise and fall in substantial har-
mony with it? The answer is that, however widely single com-
modities would have varied in price on a specie basis, the average
of relative prices would have varied within comparatively narrow
limits. Strong probability is lent to this assumption by Sauer-
beck's index number for England and Soetbeer's for Germany.
Both sets of data, when reduced to the basis : prices in 1860^100,
show a slight fall from 1860 to 1863, a slight rise from 1863 to
1866, a slighter fall from 1866 to 1870 in one case and irregular
minor fluctuation in the other, a more decided advance from 1870
to 1873, and then a fall to 1878. The maxinuun variations of the
medians for the years of the paper standard are 107 and 88 in
England, 113 and 98 in Germany. Somewhat similar would
probably have been the course of the wholesale price-level in the
United States had specie payments been maintained, — tho\i<i:h the
civil war, the changes in import duties, and the speculative char-
acter of business transactions would perhaps have made the varia-
tions somewhat greater. But if we suppose that on the specie
basis the American price-level would have conformed in its lart^er
movements to the English and German price-levels, it follows that
we might expect our general averages of relative i)riees in cur-
rency to rise slower than the price of gold in ISG^ and 18G3, faster
in 1864 and 1865 ; to move in general harmony with the premium
in 1866 and 1S70: then to rise faster or fall slower than the
premium until 1873; and finally to fall faster than the premium
from 1873 to 1878.
1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 261
Such in general is the result we do find. But there are several
minor deviations from this result, due to the fact that the average
of commodity-prices moved more sluggishly than the price of
gold. The readjustment of prices effected by business processes
required some little time, whereas the premium on gold changed
with great rapidity. The result was that the curve traced by the
median of relative prices at wholesale appears to be always lag-
ging somewhat behind the curve traced by gold quotations.
These differences between the movements of the premium and
the price-level, like the general correspondence between them,
were due to the business proce.s.ses by which prices were deter-
mined. (1) The wholesale markets for several of the commodi-
ties for which we have quotations were almost as highly organized
as the market for gold. Such, for example, was the case with the
markets for cotton and wheat. But the markets for the great
mass of our commodities were not of this character. Candles,
cement, tubs, corn-starch, putty, shovels, pine-boards, dried ap-
ples, etc., etc., were not dealt in on exchanges by men alert to
every passing change in the business situation, intent to take ad-
vantage of every passing difference in quotations, and concerned
with no other business problem than buying and selling at a
y)rofit. The people who dealt in such goods habitually allowed
for a larger margin in their transactions, and found their profits
affected by many other matters than the differences between the
buying and selling prices of a single commodity. Prices in these
loosely organized markets were not readjusted to a new business
situation with the celerity characteristic of such a market as that
for foreign exchange or gold.
(2) The practice among business men of entering into con-
tracts to receive or deliver goods at .stipulated prices for certain
periods in the future, interfered with the rapid readjustment of
commodity i)rices whenever the premium on gold changed. To
maintain their accustomed rate of profit business men who.se con-
tracts secured them supplies at th^ prices of a previous time were
not compelled to advance their selling prices the moment gold
rose. So far as competition or the desire to increase custom en-
tered into the business motives for fixing prices in such cases, they
tended to prevent prices f nmi rising until new contracts at higher
262 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. i
rates had to be made. And when gold was falling similar con-
ditions prevailed. Men paying high prices on old contracts
could not reduce their selling prices without cutting into profits.
So far, then, as business was transacted in goods bought or con-
tracted for some time previously, the readjustment of selling
prices to the premium was delayed.
(3) It is assumed in the preceding statements that the reason
why business men raised the prices of their goods when gold ad-
vanced was that otherwise their profits would have been reduced ;
and the reason why they reduced prices when gold fell was that
competition or unwillingness of customers to buy theatened loss
of business otherwise. The exactness and promptness with which
prices were adjusted to the fluctuations of gold depended, there-
fore, in large measure on the immediacy of the relation between
profits and prices. Any factor which sustained profits without
an advance in the selling prices of goods dealt in or manufactured,
or reduced profits independently of a reduction of selling prices,
tended to prevent business men from raising or lowering selling
prices quickly when the premium changed. Such a f actoi* existed
in the operating expenses of business establishments. Rent of
business premises, salaries of officials, superintendents, and clerks ;
wages of laborers ; fixed chat'ges on permanent investments — the
amount of all these expenses changed much more slowly than the
gold premium. Therefore, even when an advance in the gold
premium immediately caused an equivalent increase in the cast
of goods bought, an eciuivalont increase in selling prices was not
necessary to maintain profits at the old level ; for these slowly
increasing business expenses had their bearing on profits (luite as
nnich as the rapidly increasing cost of goods. And when gold
was declining, competition keen enough to keep the rate of profits
stable would not cause a reduction of selling prices so rapid as
the fall of gold — even though the purchase-price of goods fell
pa7'i passu with the premium — ; for operating expenses deolined
so much more slowly. The relative importance of these expiMises,
in comparison with the purchase-price of goods bought, varied
greatly from establishment to establishment and from commodity
to commodity — for exami)le, it was greater on the average in fac-
tories than in mercantile establishments, and greater in the case
1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 263
of finished products than of raw materials — ; but wherever it en-
tered at all it retarded the adjustment of prices to the premium.
(4) Finally, it has been pointed out that, though the prices
of all commodities felt the influence of the premium, the prices
of some felt it less directly than the prices of others. Goods
made from imported or exported articles, and substitutes for
them, were not affected in price so promptly as the exported and
imported articles themselves. Still slower in being reached were
commodities which had no relation with imports and exports, but
whose prices were finally affected because the general demand for
them increased, or because producers found that the expenses of
conducting business and of living had advanced.
Analysis of the business situation, then, shows that there is no
difficulty in accounting for the fact that the price-level in the
United States did not follow perfectly the specie price-levels of
Europe and the premium on gold. The character and degree of
its deviations from this course can best be shown by a transforma-
tion of Table 11, which shows the relative prices of identical lists
of commodities (47 in number) in the United States and Ger-
many. Table 70 reproduces the medians and arithmetic means
of this table and shows the results of dividing these averages for
the United States by the price of gold. The figures for gold used
for each year are the averages of the average prices for the four
months to which the American price quotations refer. Of the
two forms of average the medians are the more significant at
least for the years 1862 to 1866, because the arithmetic means of
these years are unduly influenced by the exceedingly high relative
prices of cotton, cotton textiles, and tar.
This table shows that the American price-level comes much
nearer corresponding with the German price-level in its move-
ments when the premium on gold has been allowed for; but it
also shows considerable deviations between the revised American
and the German price-level, arising from the fact that American
prices did not advance, and, still more, did not fall so promptly
as the premium. The sharp fall of prices in the United States
in 1861 was due to the business crisis — mainly confined to this
country — caused by the secession of the southern states. In

1862, with the sudden increase of demand in many lines of trade
caused by vast jrovernment purchases, doubtl(»ss prices would
have sliown a recovery on the specie standard. It is therc^fore
particularly si»miticant that the fjold premium advanced faster
than prices, causin<r a further fall of the price-level in t(»rms of
gold. In 1863 the premium and prices appear to have kept even
pace; but this appearance results from the fact that three con-
tradictory movements are combined in the fitnires for the whole
year. Karly in the year <rold advanced faster than prices, latc^r
it fell faster, at the end it airain advanced far faster. ]\Iu(*h the
same is true of 1864. The table indicates that commodities' irained
somewhat on jrold; but the facts an* that from Januarv to Julv
1908J Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 265
gold rose with a rush that left prices far behind, and from July
to October it fell fast while prices were still rising to recover the
ground they had earlier lost. The agreement between the specie
price-levels of the United States and Germany during 1863 and
1864 would therefore not appear so striking if the data were for
quarters instead of years. But the sudden jump in the specie
price-level in 1865 is significant; it shows that American prices
did not fall with anything like the rapidity of gold. 1866 is
another year in which annual averages are misleading; for gold
fluctuated through a wide range; first falling, then rising, then
falling again, and each time leaving prices behind. The further
advance in the specie price-level in 1867 and 1868 indicated by
the medians is misleading for another reason. This advance does
not appear in the table for all commodities, and seems to be due
largely to the fact that the distribution of the relative prices in
the center of the tally-sheets for these years is irregular. The
arithmetic means show specie prices lower in both these years
than in 1866. With the early 70 's we come upon another trace
of harmony between the American and German price-levels. One
shows 1872, the other 1873, as the year of maximum specie prices.
From the year of the crisis to the end of the paper money period
also there is agreement in that both price-leveLs fall and reach
almost perfect identity in 1878 and 1879. Commercial conditions
and the fall of the premium cooperated to bring this result about
in the Ignited States: but the former factor appears to have been
the more powerful ; for while the premium rose between 1874 and
1875 prices fell decidedly.
Fiirures in some respects more satisfactory are given in Table
71, which is a similar transformation of the general table of
deciles for the relative prices of all our 92 series of wholesale
quotations by quarters. This table shows clearly how much faster
the premium moved up and down during the years of the war
than did i)rices. Whenever gold rase decidedly specie prices fell,
and whrncv(*r gold fell decidedly specie prices rase. But prices
followed the premium steadily — though at some distance — and
after the war stood regularly above it, so that the gold price-level
was above 100 constantly from April, 1865, to April. 1876. The
hi<rh<*st point was 136 in April, 1866. It was produced by a

sudden drop in the premium accompanied as usual by a much
smaller fall of currency prices. In* 1867 and 1868 the price-level
seemed to be slowly readjusting itself to the premium of about 40
per cent, on gold which ruled durinji: these years with a fair
dejrree of steadiness. But in 1869 the era of rapid railway build-
injj: — the most conspicuous feature of a great business **boom'* —
began and caused prices to rise. At the end of the year a large
and permanent fall in the premium occurred — from about 37 per
cent, in September, 1869, to an average of about 13 per cent, for
272 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l
the next seven years. Prices responded rather slowly while the
business **boom" gathered headway, so that the gold price-level
rose in 1870, declined but a trifle in 1871, and rose again in 1872.
After the crisis of 1873 the premium remained fairly steady
until 1877; but the long delayed readjustment of prices to a
lower level proceeded apace under the impetus of business de-
pression. The median of relative prices fell below the monthly
premium on gold for the fifst time in July, 1876. The usual
winter rise of prices, combined with a further drop in the pre-
mium, carried currency prices higher than gold in the first two
quarters of the next year; but from July, 1877, to the resumption
of specie payments the median was lower than the premium, so
that in 1878 the specie price-level in the United States, like the
specie price-levels in England and Germany, was lower than it
had been in 1860.
It is not amiss to conclude by repeating that this discussion
does not attempt to explain fully the fluctuations of prices at
wholesale during the years of the greenback standard ; but deals
only with the connection between the fluctuations of prices at
wholesale and the fluctuations of the premium on gold. It shows
(1) that business processes maintained a general harmony be-
tween these two sets of fluctuations; (2) that the effect of these
processes was not toward producing exact correspondence be-
tween the fluctuations of prices and the premium, but toward
making the fluctuations of prices differ from what they would
otherwise have been by margins set by the premium: and (3)
that this result was not accurately produced, because business
factors impeded somewhat the quick adjustment of prices to the
premium, causing them to rise and fall more slowly. The mate-
rial provided by our tables does not suffice for more elaborate
investigations. The problems remain to be discussed : What
factors controlled the premium on gold? Were the fluctuations
both of the premium and of prices a C(mseqnence of some common
cause, such as the changes in the (|uantity of money? What
influence was exercised on the price-levels both of the Tuited
States and of European countries by the great economic changes
which occurred between 1862 and 1878?

///. — The Inter-relations between Prices at Wholesale, Prices at
Retail, and Prices of Labor.
The direct influence of the gold premium upon prices was
not felt outside of wholesale markets. There was no business
reason why shop-keepers should take direct account of the pre-
mium on gold in marking their wares, or why employees and
workmen should make the premium a factor in their bargaining
about rates of wages. But the price-revolutions in wholesale
markets, caused by the greenback standard, necessarily spread to
retail markets for commodities and to markets for labor. The
processes by which this indirect influence of the premium was
brought to bear upon these markets, and the degrees of agree-
ment and difference in the fluctuations of prices, are the subjects
of this section.
The business process by which the fluctuations in retail prices
of commodities were made to correspond roughly with the fluc-
tuations of wholesale prices is too obvious to require explanation.
The only difficulty is in explaining why this correspondence was
not closer. Both the general tables for wholesale and retail prices
(Tables 4 and 21), and the special table for the wholesale and
retail prices of identical lists of commodities (Table 23), indicate
that the fluctuations of prices at retail deviated from the fluctu-
ations of prices at wholesale in much the same way that the latter
deviated from the fluctuations of the premium. That is, retail
prices wTre somewhat slower in rising from 1863 to 1865, and
decidedly slower in falling after 1865.
The explanation of these deviations is similar to the expla-
nation above given of the deviations between wholesale prices and
gold. First, retail markets are less highly organized than whole-
sale markets. The sellers and still more the buyers are on the
whole less capable and less careful bargainers, less concerned
about fractional differences in prices, less intent on finding out
where the best prices can be had, and governed less exclusively
bv business motives in their actions. Convention and the influ-
ence of round members impede changes in the retail prices of
many articles. For all these reasons retail prices are less sensitive
274 University of California Publications in Economics. IVol. l
than wholesale prices to minor changes in the business situation,
and less prompt in responding to important changes.
Again, the retail dealer usually sells to-day wares w^hich he
ordered months ago. The fact that wholesale prices have fallen
since then does not at once make it possible for him to reduce his
selling prices without loss of profit. Nor is he always able to
advance retail prices the moment wholesale prices rise without
risking loss of custom to his competitors, who like himself are
still selling the goods they bought before the rise. Wholesale
prices of previous months, rather than wholesale prices of to-day,
then, are the prices which represent the cost of wares to the re-
tailer and on which he bases selling prices. Of course this fact
tends to make retail prices lag behind wholesale prices in their
movements.
Once more, the shop-keeper is subject to other costs than the
purchase price of his wares, and these other costs have far less
mobility than wholesale prices. The rent for his shop, the rates
of wages paid to his salesmen, the interest computed on the funds
invested in his business, are not subject to frequent changes.
To reduce proportionately the selling prices of his wares the
moment wholesale prices fall, or even the moment he receives a
new consignment of goods bought at lower rates, would reduce
his profits because these other expenses run along at nearly the
old rates for a considerable time. And, for the same reason, the
shop-keeper can make his accustomed profit without advancing
the selling prices of his goods proportionately the moment he
begins to pay higher wholesale prices.
Finally, the wholesale prices which shop-keepers pay are
wholesale prices of finished products. As was incidentally re-
marked in the preceding section, and as is shown in Tables 72
and 73, finished products vary less in wholesale prices than do
raw materials. They advance and recede more slowly and in less
extreme degree. Even if retail prices kept even pace with the
fluctuations of the wholesale prices of the same wares, they would
for this reason move more sluggishly than the general wholesale
price-level.
With these facts in mind one has no difficulty in understand-
ing why retail prices rose more slowly than wholesale prices from
1908] Mitchell.— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880, 275
1863 to 1865, reached their maximum about a year later, declined
more slowly from 1866 to 1879, and rose less sharply in 1880.
The changes in both wholesale and retail prices of commodities
bore upon the price of labor. Wholesale prices affected the prices
which employers could pay for labor without changing profits.
The farmer or the manufacturer whose products had risen in
price was in a position to grant an increase in wages, if compelled
to do so, without reducing profits below their former level. And
when these employers had to sell their products at lower prices,
their profits would fall unless they succeeded in reducing the
cost of labor. Prom this point of view there was therefore a
business bond between the prices of commodities at wholesale and
the price of labor. Prom the point of view of the laborer, on the
contrary, the important commodity-prices were those which af-
fected cost of living. Preceding tables show that the cost of
living corresponded rather closely with the general movements of
retail prices, but rose and fell more slowly — primarily because
of the sluggish movements of house-rents (see Table 27). To
maintain his real wages unchanged, therefore, and provided con-
stancy of employment did not vary, the wage-earner must have
charged a price for his labor advancing somewhat more slowly
than retail prices to a maximum in 1866, and then falling some-
what more slowly to a minimum in 1879.
Had the market for labor offered no independent resistance,
the combined effect of these two forces might have produced
fluctuations in the price of labor of a type intermediate between
the rapid movements of wholesale prices and the slow movements
of cost of living. But the preceding tables have shown that
nothing of this sort happened. On the contrary, the fluctuations
of the price of labor were even slower than the fluctuations of
cost of living. Once more, the explanation is to be found in the
peculiar characteristics of the market for the goods we are dis-
cussing.
In the '60 's and, though in somewhat less degree, in the 70 's,
the labor market of the United States was one in which individual
bargaining prevailed. Now the individual laborer is a poor
bargainer. He is ignorant of the passibilities of his situation,
276 Vniversity of California Publications in Economics, l^'ol- 1
exposed to the competition of others with the same disabilities,
more anxious to sell than the employer to buy. Moreover, custom
in the form of rooted ideas about what is a **fair wage*' has a
peculiarly tenacious hold upon the minds of both parties in the
labor market, weakening the wage-earner's aggression and
strengthening the employer's resistance. Finally, as was sug-
gested in the chapter on wages, constancy of employment was
probably above the average during the years when prices were
rising, and tended to sustain the wage-earner's money income
without so considerable an increase in the price of labor as would
otherwise have been necessary.
These well-known facts make it seem natural that the price
of labor should have advanced less rapidly than the cost of living
up to 1866, despite the fact that enlistments in the anny took
tens of thousands of men out of the labor market during the war.
It does not seem so natural that the price of labor should have
continued to advance for five or six years after 1866, despite the
fact that prices at wholesale and the cost of living were both
declining, and that the soldiers were returning to their old occu-
pations. The explanation of this fact is one of the problems
which requires for solution other material than our tables afford.
But it may be pointed out (1) that it was not until 1867, accord-
ing to Table 68, that relative wages stood higher than relative
cost of living; and (2) that the era of active railway building
with its great demand for labor began in 1869. The fall in the
price of labor after the crisis of 1873, however, is what the course
of wholesale prices and cost of living would lead one to expect.
From 1874 to 1879 the price of labor fell faster than the cost of
living, as if in a belated attempt to make up for its failure to
start promptly on the downward path.
A more definite idea of the relation between the fluctuations
of the several classes of prices can be had by recurring to statis-
tical presentation. There are two important industries — the
manufacture of cotton and of woolen textiles — for which we
have sufficient material to permit a comparison of the fluctuations
in the prices of the basic raw material, of important finished
products at wholesale (and at retail also in the case of cotton)^

and of labor. This material is presented in Tables 73 and 74, and
more clearly shown in the accompanying charts. For purposes
of comparison the prices of gold are included. To make the
figures for the different classes of prices as nearly alike as pos-
sible, annual averages are used in place of monthly figures for
gold, quarterly figures for wholesale prices, and semi-annual
figures for wages. The relative prices for textiles are averages
of the relative prices of broadcloths (two qualities), cassimeres
(two qualities), checks, horse-blankets, and shawls in the case of
wool; and of prints, brown sheetings, bleached sheetings, and
tickings in the case of cotton. Arithmetic means are used instead
of medians because the groups are so small.

IV. — The Economic Significance? of the Price-revolutions of the
Greenback Period.
Writers upon money usually state that it performs three
functions, serving as a common denominator of value, a medium
of exchange, and a standard of deferred payments. To enumer-
ate the functions of money in this fashion, however, is very far
from suggesting the importance of the role which money plays
in economic life. To understand this role attention must be fixed
upon the complex mechanism of prices, rather than upon money
itself. It is impossible in this place to show the many ways in
280 University of California Puhlicatians in Economics. [Vol. 1
which this social mechanism affects economic life; but a brief
statement of the relations between prices and fundamental eco-
nomic processes is required to suggest the significance of the
changes in different classes of prices which have been exhibited
in the preceding chapters.
From the point of view of the men who direct it, the pro-
duction of wealth Ls nowadays a business process of selling goods
for more than they have cost, and is conducted for the sake of
getting money profits. The technical processes involved in va-
rious departments of business — farming, manufacturing, trans-
portation and commerce — are, in the eyes of the business men
who direct them, simply subordinate parts of this business process
— certain of the steps necessary to make profits by selling at prices
which exceed the money cost. It is hardly too much to say that
from the standpoint of the business men in control, the production
of wealth is simply an incidental feature in the business process
of making money.
Alongside these business enterprises incidentally concerned
with the production, manufacture, and distribution of material
goods, stand the business enterprises concerned with finance: —
banks, trust companies, insurance companies, stock and bond
houses — in short the whole mechanism of the investment and
money markets. These enterprises, like the preceding class, are
conducted for the sake of pecuniary profits, and their profits also
depend on selling at prices higher than the prices paid. They
represent the highest development and the most complex ad-
justments of the whole business organization, and all other enter-
prises are bound to them by the various forms of pecuniary
obligations.
The distribution of the wealth produced by enterprises of the
first sort supported by financial aid from enterprises of the second
sort is effected by means of prices. Wages is the price i)aid for
labor, interest the price paid for the use of loan-funds, rent the
price paid for the use of material goods which must be returned
without substantial deterioration, and profits is the residue of the
aggregate prices received after the aggregate prices i)aid for the
factors of production, for materials, etc., have been deducted.

To the individual, indeed, economic welfare depends primarily
upon the money income he is able to get under the conditions
presented by the price-system, and upon the aggregate prices
which he must pay for what he wishes to consume.
IVFoney prices, in brief, are the formal basis on which the
economic relations of individuals in modern society are organized
and the formal mechanism by which economic processes are car-
ried on. It follows that the economic relations of individuals and
the conduct of economic processes are subject to alteration by
changes in the system of prices.
The relation between the changes in the system of prices and
the economic activity of men is partly a relation of effect, partly
one of cause. Most prices result from voluntary agreements
entered into by independent individuals or corporations. Even
when prices are established by public authority, or practically
forced by one party on another, they are a product of man's will
and changes are made to suit man 's purposes. But it is also true
that the system of prices has a quasi-independence of the will of
individuals or even of the whole community. It has a logic of
its own in the same sense that a mathematical investigation has ;
it presents technical exigencies in the same sense that a mechan-
ical process does. Men who make use of the system of prices in
their economic activity are constrained to obey its logic and to
adapt themselves as best they may to its technical exigencies.
These general statements help to suggest the part which the
price-revolutions of the greenback period played in the economic
history of that time. Perhaps the clearest conception of the price-
revolutions is gained by regarding them as changes made by the
business community in its effort to adapt itself to the monetary
conditions created by an inconvertible paper currency. Why
men paid the currency prices they did for gold is a problem which
has several times been mentioned only to be set aside as insoluble
without more material than has been presented. But, granted
the fluctuations of the premium, the fluctuations in the prices of
other goods were the adjustments which men using prices as the
basis of their economic relations were constrained to make by
circumstances beyond their control.
282 University of California Publications in Economics. [Vol. l
Of course, different classes of men were affected in different
ways by price-changes, and in turn used their economic influence
to effect changes of different sorts, — so in all cases our figures
show the resultants of complex sets of opposing forces. The
process of change was attended by serious friction ; but the final
chart shows that despite this friction the price-system displayed
remarkable flexibility. Wholesale prices lagged behind gold, to
be sure ; retail prices lagged behind wholesale prices, cost of living
behind retail prices, and wages behind cost of living. An eco-
nomic theorist, accustomed to imagine immediate and accurately
guaged changes of prices occurring in a f rictionless hypothetical
market under the stimulus of some /'disturbing factor,'' might
perhaps regard this lagging of one class of prices behind another
as an important deviation from the ** natural'' course of events.
But a student of prices in less highly organized business com-
munities, or an economic historian familiar with earlier price-
revolutions, would be much more impressed by the rapidity and
system with which prices of different classes of goods were
changed, than by the lack of completeness in the adjustment.
It is remarkable that these price-revolutions were effected
without bringing more serious economic disaster upon the com-
munity. The conduct of economic processes by a complex mech-
anism of prices, supplemented by a complex system of credits,
might be expected to produce dire confusion when the prices of
different classes of commodities changed so rapidly and in such
different degrees. But the flexibility which the price system
displayed was an ordered flexibility, and the nuitual relations of
its different parts were maintained without fundamental change,
so that business continued to be conducted in a fairly normal
fashion. To be sure, a great business crisis and several years of
profound business depression occurred during the period of the
greenback standard. But neither can be ascribed in large mea-
sure to its influence. For the crisis of 1873 and the resulting
period of depression were felt quite as severely in P^uropeau
countries with specie standards. Moreover, the crisis came in
the United States after the mast startling fluctuations in the
prices of gold and commodities had long been passed, and at the
end of nearly four years of a relatively stable premium. The
1908] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880. 283
much more extraordinary fluctuations of 1865, when the median
of relative wholesale prices fell 58 points in six months, passed
without disaster.
But, though these changes in the price-level were effected with-
out producing the catastrophes which might have been expected,
they were not without important consequences on the distribution
and production of wealth. It has been shown that the real in-
comes of wage-earners were seriously affected by the changes in
cost of living and money wages. It may also be inferred from
the tables that the economic welfare of all recipients of fixed
incomes was altered more than once. Analysis would also show
that the dissimilar fluctuations of wholesale prices and of wages
must have influenced profits. And if data were at hand to show
variations in the rates of interest on long and short loans it would
appear that lending capitalists, like other classes, had their share
in the vicissitudes of the period. Finally, changes in the distri-
bution of wealth, particularly changes in profits, in their turn
influenced the production of wealth. But these changes in dis-
tribution and production cannot be profitably studied without
the use of other data than our tables supply.
The tables of this book, then, suggest more problems than they
solve. Logically first is the problem of the causes which con-
trolled the specie value of the greenback dollar. Second is the
problem concerning the various factors other than the premium
on gold which affected prices. Third is the problem how the
business community was able to avoid more frequent and more
serious disasters from the instability of prices. Finally come the
problems just suggested — the consequences of the fluctuations in
the prices of different classes of economic goods upon the distri-
bution and production of wealth. The statistical material which
is here presented affords an indispensable part of the data re-
quired for defining and solving all of these problems; but only
a part.

TABLE 2.
Belative prices of 153 commodities at wholesale, by quarters: 1860-1880.
Note. — The following table gives in detail the quarterly series of relative
prices at wholesale used in Chapter II. The arrangement of the series is
alphabetical. The references are to the pages of the Aldrich Report, Parts 2
and 4, where the original series of actual prices may be found. The series
for wool, however, are based upon Mauger and Avery's table, published in
the Statistical Abstract of the United States, 1905, p. 538. The ''base
prices" are the actual prices in January, 1860 in most cases. But in the
case of lumber and a few other articles they are actual prices in July or
October, 1860, and in the case of agricultural products they are averages of
the actual prices for the months of 1860 covered by the data. By noticing
what month in 1860 has a relative price of 100 one can distinguish these
cases. When the sum of the relative prices for the four quarters of 1860 is
400, the * * base price * ' is the average of the actual prices. The asterisks at
the heads of certain columns show what series were grouped to form series
of average relative prices. The series so marked were not used in compiling
the tables of the text; but the series of average relative prices made from
them were used. For further explanations see Chapter II, Section i.

TABLE 3.
Relative wholesale prices of identical lists of commodities in the United States
and England, the United States and Germany, and England
and Germany: by years, 1860-1880.
Note. — The American fibres are based on average actual prices in Janu-
ary, April, July, and October of each year. The English prices are from
Sauerbeck 's table, re-computed on the basis : actual prices in 1860 = 100.
The German figures are from Soetbeer^s table; similarly re-computed. For
further explanations, see Chapter II, Section iii, pp. 31-33.

TABLE 4.
Helative prices of 60 commodities at retail in various towns: by yearSy
1860-1880.
Note. — The series in the following table are arranged (1) alphabetically
by commodities, (2) geographically by states, and (3) alphabetically by
towns within the states. The references give the pages of the Report on the
Average Betail Prices of Necessaries of Life in the United States, by Jos. D.
Weeks (Tenth Cersus, Vol. XX), on which the series of actual prices may be
found. The base prices shown in the table are actual prices in 1860, or, when
that is missing, in 1861. For further explanations regarding the character
of the material, see Chapter III, Section iv.

TABLE 5.
Relative rates of wages from Table XII of the "Aldrich Report,
tt
Note. — The following table gives in detail the 527 series of relative
wages used in compiling the tables presented in Chapter IV, Section i. The
arrangement is based upon that of the original series of actual wages in the
"Exhibits" of the Aldrich Report, Parts ii-iv. The several industries are
in alphabetical order; the establishments in each industry are in numerical
order; and the several occupations in each establishment are in alphabetical
order. To facilitate access to the source, I have retained the numbers as-
signed to each establishment in the Aldrich Report, and also given a page
reference for each series. The ''base wages" shown are the actual wages
upon which the ** relative wages" for each date have been computed. Ex-
cept when otherwise stated in a foot-note, they are actual wages per day in
January, 1860. The columns headed "No." show the number of persons
reported for each date as following the specified occupation in the specified
establishment and receiving the corresponding relative wages.

1^08] Mitchell— Gold, Prices, and Wages, 1860-1880, 513
TABLE 6.
Eelntive wages from Weeks's Beport in Volume XX of the Tenth Census:
by years, 1S60-1880.
Note. — The following table presents the 1,447 series of relative rates of
wages from which the summary tables of Chapter IV, Section ii, were con-
structed. The series are arranged by establishments, the -establishments by
industries, and the industries alphabetically by titles. All the textile indus-
tries are groupe<l together under the letter T, and the wood-working indus-
tries under the letter W. This order is that of the source. To facilitate
reference to the original data, the page of the census volume on which the
returns for each establishment are given is indicated. The "base wages"
are the rates prevailing in 1860, or, when data for 1860 are missing, in 1861.
For further explanations see pp. 92, 175, 176.

TABLE 7.
Actual wages per day of ** common laborers** employed by manufacturing
establishments in 1866, 1869, 1875, and 1870.
Note. — The following table gives the material from which Table 62
(p. 222) is made, so far as concerns the figures for factory laborers. The
references to the ** census'' are to the Report on the Statistics of Wages in
Manufacturing Industries, by Jos. D. Weeks, Tenth Census, Vol. XX.
**Ahlrich'' stands for the Aldrich Report of 1893, Parts ii-iv (see above,
p. 16, n). The data are given for the years for which corresponding infor-
mation about farm wages is available. For further explanations see pp.
220-223 above.
