fine physician and the promoter OF

WORST rs PASSED.
A General Improvement Shown In the
Financial World.

Washington, D. c., June 1.-THE
financial condition of the cOuttry, %
viewed from the treasury standpoint,
shows q general improvements. The
bank and commercial cailures aid few.
er, Europe is buying our grain in
greater quantities, gold shipmen have
ceased, at least fsr the present, conf
dence is being restored and money 10
not so tight.
The treasury gold has increased
from sS9,OOO,OO to s91 ,SOO,OOO and
demand for small money in the west
will have the effect to further increase
the treasury gold. There Is general
opinion that the worst Is passed, the
weaker financial institutions and busi
ness institutions having succumbed
while those who passed through 50 far
are stroger for having weathered tne
financial storm.
