NEW YORK. Mich. 81.
The opening of the foreign market after the
Easter holidays gave our market early the bene-
fit of some buying orders for London account
The strength developed at the start was not
wholly sustained to the end, but the dizziness of
speculation as Il whole robbed fluctuations of
much Significance. The delay in the announce
ment of the Presidents attitude toward the
Bland seigniorage bill checks positive opera
tons on large scale, while there is a fear that
the news of a veto may bring realization orders
into the market. OF course there is d little
doubt that if the Bland bill becomes law an
unfavorable effect would be produced in invest
ment circles. But rel ying upon veto in defence
of sound finance the conservative element OF
the Street is still in doubt as to how far the
economies in railroad expenses can be main
tanned in the face of earnings below last years
record. The uncertainty of the tariff legislation
continues to restrict business revival and until
Congress acts on this subject the Improvement
in industry and enterprise will necessarily be
slow. The crops have also reached stage
where discussion as to the outcome may be eX-
pected to have some influence. Considering the
extent of the advance already scored by the
market in the face of these elements OF uncer
tainty we believe that a conservative policy is
most advisable. There is ground for conviction
that no serious depression is probable unless
there SHOULD be unexpected unfavorable deVel
opments but although the bull cliques are ap
parently in control of prices we believe that it is
well to CONTEMPORARIES to the reactions.

The March of the Age.

AAC -AsrCA O1 the ABe
The march of this electrical age is well
shown by bill introduced last week into
the Legislature. The bin is made appli-
cable to Geauga county only at present,
but If the experiment proves successful
there it is hoped to make general bill.
The bill contains three propositions:
First, to submit to vote of the people the
proposition to issue $4,000 in bonds for
road Improvement; second, to lay tracks
for electric cars; third. to require electric
cars to pay toll at so much per mile.
The bill centemplates that the tracks
may be utilized by either electric cars or
wagons. Also that private individuals
will finally provide electric vehicles OF
their own. The rate of toll will be
fixed by the county commissioners. There
is also provision in the bill to allow the
