Chicago Teachers Federation Wins
Signal Victory Over State Board
of Equalization.

Springfield, Ill, May 2.-The Chi
cago Teachers federation won it's tax
fight against the state board of equal
ization in the Sangamon county cir
cult court Wednesday. A decision
was handed down by Judge Owen p.
Thompson, who heard the case, and
it was in favor of the teachers con-
tention that the taxing board should
have assessed the traction, gas, tele-
phone and electric Light corporations
on theiE capital stock at it's full value.
Should the supreme court, to which
che case will be appealed by the at
torney general, sustain the decision
of the circuit court, the tax books of
Cook county will have over $50, 100000
of property on them that has never
been assessed hitherto.

TRADE REVIE w.
Activity in Stocks the Greatest Ever
Experienced in History of
Wall Street.

New York, May Ar. G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says: 'The
greatest activity ever seer in Wall street
divertS attention in a measure from prog
ress in distributing and manufacturing OPP
erations. But while on every hand stock
market interests are counseling caution
and attempting to prove that prices are
really more than the condition of some
of railroads warrants, the fact re-
mains that, without a brilliant crop outlook
and a great activity Of general trade, Wall
street could hold no such carnival. Labor
difficulties are fewer and less threatening
than for several years before in the first
week of May, and prices of merchanCise
hold well.
stability of prices and vigorous prose-
cution of work a mills indicate the whole
some condition of the iron and steel mar
ket. Throughout the entire range of
products of this industry the current de-
mand for immediate delivery exceeds all
previous records, yet makers maintain
conservative position and prices are not
pushed up to the danger point. 1t is from
the finishing steel plants that there is the
greatest urgency for shipments, and full
capacity is assured for the next three
months. After July there is prospect
of respite, judging by the light engage
ments of pig iron and following the un-
paralleled activity of the past six months,
season of comparative quiet would not
rush to get in orders for steel rails before
the higher price became effective.
Further advances were secured in the
cereal market, Chicago spectators being
forced to cover May corn contracts at 55
cents. Attractive prices brought more LID
eral receipts at interior cities and also
stimulated operations on the farm. Ira
ders have forced the next crop options to
what seems an unreasonable level, since
there is evidence of a large yield despite
delayed planting through excessive moist
ure. Wheat also attained high point,
advancing in sympathy with corn.
The marvelously healthy condition of
business is best appreciated when it Is
discovered that the defaults last month
were the smallest in 81 months, with the
exception of May to August 1899 inclusive.
In manufacturing lines there were but 1853
failures, with total Indebtedness of $780,
694, against ITS last year for $4,514,003 AS
1899 reported the smallest liabilities of any
full year In two decades, last months
good showing is made manifest by default
in manufacturing concerns $777, 1865 smaller
555 for So, 16S, 1923, and banking defaults were
S529,OOO The death rate was only three
fftieths of one per cent. of all firms in
business, and losses averaged $4.7O not a
serious embarrassment to general trade.
The proportion of unpaid bills was less
than 46 cents for each $1,000 Of solvent pay
ments through clearing houses. No matter
in what light the April record may be
viewed, 1t makes an exhibit that cannot
fail to give couragement.'
