New York: Wall street, ever since the

On the other hand American victory, like
that which Admiral Dewey achieved at

high circles of finance no doubt is enter
ernment loan, the issue determined upon
by congress. There may be a disappear
ance of all doubts to the continued
strong gold position of the treasury. Rail-
road earnings reported for April show
gains with very few exceptions, and with
in the last week good authorities say there
has been an improvement in the situation
in many directions The country's bank
clearances continue to register the great
improvement in business over previous
years. Even 1892 is now cast in the shade.
AS peace is bound to return some day,
that fact remains a beacon of encourage
ment to business men and investors alike.
