accouni or ufficient funds to m in taiu business ii heal by condition but, as We have indicated, rather or account of the a5nofm l manner il which business wa conducied
 The most recent advIces from eas ern financial circles indicate ihrt the New York banks have up, wards of s1T0,O0O,O0O locked up in their vaults at the pres mt time and now that business has reached its normal and healthy condilIor once more this enormous fund begins 10 seek sate invcstm cnt, but of cGur- e very cautiously. Legitimate busi> ness will find abundant means to 20 ahead and it will be but short time now brfore the go' d results of Ihe collapse win begin to make themselves apparent Speculative railroad building has no doubt come to timely eno as has many other purely speculative enterprises, but where the condition of things demand and show the business to support an enterprise of any kind there will be no difficulty in getting the now waiting capital to take hold of it.
 In looking back over the history of bn>iness in general during the past few ears we find that the collapse just past is but repition of 8 similar circumstance Tn the ". rid. There w8s time when @ mere hole in the ground was all that was necessary 10 constitute q mIne and 4 chunk nf quartz rock of unknown value was sufficient evidence of value to work up sale.
 That time, as we ull know, has rass' d, and let us hope forever. Mining has gotten down to really. The mine must exist in fact, the ore must be there in quantity and quality and even then capital takes hold of it carefully but when it loes take hold there Is legitimate york done; it nut be warran ed in his in a reasonable degree b, fore it will take hold. The result is hat 1 here is to-day more real develops nent and legitimate m'nrng with air returns golrg on than there has ,ern for many years.
 So we arprehend there will real y ,e an improvement in business gen, "a y IS sequence of the recent olIapse. Fortunes will come slow r and will be smaller, hut there fill ultimately be vastly more of in sh II the benefits of money ill be more widely spread.
