BUSINESS ACTIVE AND SOUND

The Worlds Work. in the May
number. dealing with the question OF
the state of our national prosperity,
refers to the bank clearings and the
railroad earnings as indicating a safe
situation. Allowing for the reduction
in speculation. there has been during
the last fiscal year a gain in the
clearing house exchanges Of more
than a billion dollars. while the rail-
road earnings increased $50, 600. 90.
Although the exports for the first
seven months o. the fiscal year were
the smallest in seven years, yet the
gain in the last three months has
been such that the excess for the
whole year will be nearly as large as
that of last year. The exports alone
for February were the largest on rec
ord for at month, as also were
those for the three months endlng
with February.
The fact that the business of the
country is in an active and healthy
state is shown clearly by two con-
ditions: the one that there Is a
s~tringency In the money market; the
other that there is a congestion OF
freight traffic on the railroads
The scarcity of money is proof that
the bankers are 81 busy that they
need cash to finance the business Of
fering. ANY banker dealing with the
merchants of the country will be abe
to tell that his customers are ENJOY
ing great activity and prosperity IN
their business. One result Of this I'M
mense activity in trade is the increas-
Ell demand for credit, which in III
largely causes the congested condition
OF the money HldlheI
The lively state of manufacturing
and agricultural production mas

The first serious aspect is the stress

Trial of Grandson of brigham YounE
for Murder to lie on Its
Merits.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-The twelfth Juror
was secured today in the trial OF william
Hooper Young. charged with the murder
of Mrs. Anna Pulitzer last September, and
Assistant District Attorney Clark began his
presentation Of the case.
An alienist. employed by the defense. sat
near Young and prepared evidence which
he is to give later on.
In his address Mr.. Clark said: "We
don't care what is his name or that he is
the grandson of Brigham Young. We don't
care il he is a Mormon or not. The re-
ligious question has nothing to do with the
case"
Counsel outliaed the story OF the dlsap-
pearance of Mrs. Pulitzer and OF the find
ing Of the body of the woman in the Nor
ris canal; of its Identification by her hus-
band and the evidence upon which they
expect to convict Young.
He looked better today, but took no in
terest in the proceedings. Most Of the time
he sat with his head resting on a table,
with his eyes closed. The trunk found in
Chicago, which contained some of the cloth
ing worn by Mrs. Pulitzer at the time OF
her disappearance, was brought into the
courtroom today.
At the conclusion of Mr. Clarks address
the lahlHB OF testimony was DeBuAs
Dan Powell, who found the body of Mrs
Pulitzer, related the incidents and de-
scrbed the locality.
other witnesses told of the finding and
disposal of the body and identified the

the murdered woman, identified a short
waist alleged to have been found in the
trunk. James b. Lynch, a policeman, tes-
titled that ghe saw man assisted by the
bellboy Of the house carry a trunk from

evening of September Is. The trunk looked
like the one in court.
James G.. Moore, a youthful employe OF
the livery stable in Hoboken, where the
buggy was hired, identified Young as the
man who hired It at about 6 p. m. on Sep
tember u. When the assistant district at
torney told Young to hold up his head
that the witness might see him, Young tool

INTERPRET HASCALL MEASURE
Members of board of Public Works
Have some DimcuIty in
DoinR So.

When the members of the Board Of Pub
lie Works met yesterday afternoon It was
found that there was but one ite1p of busi-
ness to be considered, but that proved to
be highly perplexing problem. This was
the Hascall resolution adopted at the last
meeting of the city council requiring the
heads Of all city departments to secure the
approval Of the city council before incur
ring any obligation or doing any act that
will entail the expenditure Of money. The
difficulty arose in the Interpretation of this
resolution, the text of which is as follows
That the various departments Of the city
government be and they hereby are directed
not to incur any obligation or do any act
that Will require the expenditure OF money
without first having the approval of the
city council authorizing any such act.
Ihat the heads of such departmer - sub
init TO this council the names of the en-
ployes now on the payrolls of the respec-
1--WE departments, the wages of each and
the duties performed and the necessity for
their employment.
The latter clause Of the resolution was
perfectly plain to all OF the members and
there was no question as to Tvs meaning,
but the intent OF the first part was somewhat
puzzling. City Engineer Rosewater was in
clined to believe that a strict interpreta-
tion of that provision would necessitate
the discharge of all Of the employees of the
different departments under the supervi-
sion Of the board, and, for that matter,
those of the other departments, for there
could be no question but that the en-
ployment of men entailed the expenditure
of money. The other members were not
inclined to take this view OF the purpose
OF the resolution and thought that while
the city council might, after ascertaining
the number and salaries OF employees in
the various departments, take steps to
bring about the reduction OF city pay rolls,
1t was intended that things should con-
tinue as they we're for the present.
BY vote 1t was determined that it was
the sense OF the board that the resolution
did not necessitate the discharge Of any
men now in the employ of the various de-
partments under the direction Of the Board
of Public Works. The list Of employees and
their salaries is now being prepared for
the council.
