The tone ia business circles has perccp-
tibly improved. This partly because banks
have been rendered more hopeful of an
early financial settlement by the calling OF
an extra session of Congress; partly because
of some recovery in prices from the sudden
depression which followed the decision to
close the India silver mints, and partly be-
cause crop prospects have improved in spite
of dismal reports from some sections.
Money has grown easier but IL is still hard
at most points TO get accommodations, as
