ganization, worked by 10000. 900 of people,
which alone makes the destiny OF the
united states. Our farmers our mine
owners and our manufacturers do not care
10 study currency systems, nor to find out
what politicians are going to do; they act
upon the symptoms of the national mar
kets and upon orders on their books. and
the amount of products they are sending
10 the railroads Is always the best test
OF the state of the national trade Whilst
New York need not and should not abate
lhts interest IN the great money question;
yet equally II should not permit its dis
content with an unsatisfactory monetary
system to produce q pessimistic feeling to-
ward the material interests of the nation
at large. our monetary tools may .be bad
but they are only tools after all: and
hitherto we have been able to accumulate
vast wealth through them in spite Of their
faults The true spirit, therefore, is TO
Keep confidence in the great producing
and commercial interests, and guard
against eNaggeratng the practical effects
OF faulty money system, while relaxing
no effort to mend IT, This seems to be the
attitude toward which Wall street is tend
ing; and much is to be hoped for from this
calmer and more rational drift

BANKER cLEws' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen From
MaII street.

Wall Street.
New York, Feb. 29.-The current railroad
movement best indicates what is the real
state of business through the country
at large. The roads show a remarkably
uniform increase of earning. OF ffty-four
roads reporting their earnings for the
second week of February only nine show
a decrease and, in all of those cases but
one, the falling-off is nominal. The total
earnings for the fifty-four lines amount
to IS, 100000 compared with $4,000 for
the same week of last year, the increase
being at the extraordinary rate of IS
per cent. Here is evidence of a growth
of trade that admits Of no question from
the most lugubrious bear" 1t is plain
evidence that, in the great producing re-
gions, where men know and care little
about the treasury question that harnesses
us so much here, business is taking on
confidence and productive capital finds
ample employment The classes who make
freight for our railroads are the same
that make business for our markets, and
what they are doing affords the truest
evidence of the state of business in the
country as a whole.
The truth is that New York is fretting
and alarming itself about financial ques-
tions which after all are not so vital as
to control the disposition or the ability
Of producing capital to keep at work turn
ing out wealth We keep our eyes so in
tently fixed upon the irregular action Of
a piece of local financial machinery as to
lose sight of the huge withdrawing or

Corn-The only aid to corn was derived
from wheat, and that extended over a
very short period at the opening. Later
prices were soft and inclined TO yield to
anything unusually heavy in the way of
selling, but the pressure was at no time
very great. May corn opened at S0@4c.

at 0ssQ3024c-unchanged from Saturday.
Cash corn was steady.
Oats-There was hardly any change in
oats, and no event or happening worthy
of record occurred. The fluctuations We're
governed principally by the action of
wheat and corn, but the changes were Of
little consequence. Cash oats We're quiet
and steady.
Provisions-All the strength seen in pro-
visions to-day came from the yards, where
hogs were in moderate supply and firm
er. Quite fair trade took place, and
prices maintained firm position through
out the session May pork closed TIE
higher than Saturday. May lard and ribs
