this time of the year with us, but there are
no signs of falling off this year. This is
one of the best indications to that
general conditions are better than they
have been and that we can expect a splen-
did trade during the holidays.
XXX
Edward L. Clancy, of H. p. Wassan &
Co.-Business conditions in Indianapolis the
entire fall have been unusually good. Re-
tail business shows a substantial gain over
previous years, and this In spite of rather
unreasonable weather the early part of the
fall. The public seems to be in excellent
financial condition and there is apparently
no feeling of unrest or fear of hard times.
The furry in stocks has had, apparently,
not the slightest effect on this community
We are looking forward to the largest holi-
day trade we ever had.
Paul Krauss-Prospects for large holi-
day trade could not be brighter. We are
laying in a larger stock of higher priced
goods for the holiday trade than we have
ever done before. There is larger demand
for this class of goods, which is one of the
best signs for healthy and prosperous con-
ditions
E. K. Chapman, of Sacks & Co.-Our
trade this fall has been larger than any
previous season. All indications point to
the largest holiday trade in the city's his
tory. From what can gather business in
all lines is splendid.
Lee Burns. head of the Bobbs-Merrill
Company's publishing OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
ness this year Is far I'm excess of any,
thing We have ever done. This indicates
to me that business generally is unquestion-
ably in a prosperous condition. We esti-
mate that our business this year will be
fully % per cent. larger than ever before.
There is question but what the holiday
trade in Indianapolis this year will be a
ord-breaker in most lines.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1903-11-22

dianapolis that have not shown marked
Improvement in spite of the fact that the
weather conditions the past season have
not been the best stimulus for trade. AS
a whole, however, the results have been
gratifying, and this basis we are pre-
dieting a liberal margin over all previous
years for the holiday trade.
XXX
D. v. Smythe, of the New York Store
The indications point to a splendid holiday
trade. We have prepared for a larger
Christmas trade than we have ever done,
and I think most of the large houses are
doing the same thing. One pleasing fea-
ture of trade just is that people are
already beginning to buy Christmas gifts.
! The people of this city and this State are
getting over the idea of buying many
low-priced and cheap things for the Christ
mas season, and purchasing higher
priced goods. Business all fall has been so
good that no one has any complaint, and
there are few merchants who are not san
guine in the belief that this years holiday
business will exceed even the banner bust
ness of last year.
Thomas A. Swain. of Bliss Swain & Co..
The business Of this city Is indeed in q
very healthy condition. Our business has
| been splendid all fall, In spite of rather
unfavorable weather conditions, and all
indications point to the largest holiday
trade in the city's history. The fact is,
the people have money and they will spend
| it. The crops were good this year, there Is
| plenty of work. and when this is the case
| you will always find business prosperous.
xxx
Edwin G.. Hereth of ID. H. Baldwin & Co.
Our business for the past ten months has
| shown a substantial increase over the first
| ten months of last year. The prospects
for the remainder of the year are excel
| lent. There is a growing demand for high
grade pianos. This indicates healthy
| condition.
G. b. Sommers, manager Of d. Sommers
/ & Co.-General business conditions are bet
| ter than they were last year. Business
was held back little this fall by unfavora-
BILE weather, but 1t has more than recovered
itself now. The holiday trade will be
larger than that of last year. From present
indications we will have a good spring
/ trade.
| Frank Stalnaker, secretary and treasurer
/ of Lilly & Stalnaker-Our business is better
| than IL ever was. This indicates that gen.
/ eral conditions are better and that Indian
/ apolis is In a most prosperous condition.
We are looking for the holiday trade in all
| lines to be very large. There Is plenty Of

who are observing conditions closely say
more people are coming to this city this
fall from the cities and towns within
radius OF fifty or sixty miles than ever
before. One merchant emphasizes the fact
that this addition to the business of In
dianapolis is not injuring the business Of
the cities and towns around the city, be-
cause the people from out of town who
dianapolis only the things they cannot ind
In the stores of their home towns.
Following are the views of a number or
the prominent merchants:
Ferdinand L. Mayer. of Charles Mayer
& Co.-Taking our own business as ba-
rometer of general conditions, 1 think the
business outlook was never so good as 1t
is right now. And all fall business has
been splendid. Last years holiday trade
was the largest in the history of this city
with most of the large merchants. but the
prospects are that the holiday trade this
year is to be perhaps larger than in 1902.
am not making these statements just to
bolster up confidence. There is basis Of
fact for everything have said. Business is
good; business is splendid. The people Of
indianapolis and Indiana are buying more
of the finer goods than ever before. and
this also, is as gratifying as the large
volume OF trade. The interurban railroads
are helping the business of this city.
Gerritt A. Archibald-The holiday busi-
ness outlook for Indianapolis / consider
very bright. 1 can no reason for its
being otherwise. / judge that other mer-
chants feel the same as do and are
expecting great returns from December
trading. as everyone appears to be making
extended preparations and is showing more
and more beautiful goods than / have ever
seen displayed in this city before. AS In
| dianapolis has grown to be the trading
mart of the State. We all naturally expect
a tremendous business the next few weeks.
The only visible cloud on the merchants
horizon now Is his constant worry about
getting enough goods to so round with his
many anxious Christmas patrons.
L. n. Poyser. of the William III. Block
! Co.-There are few lines Of business in In

work and people have money, and this in
sures good business.
H. f. Ryan, of l.. 8. Ayres & Co-Busi-
ness is in a healthy condition. We die the
largest business last year we ever did, but
the indications are that this years showing
will be larger than ever before. For the
holiday trade this year we have laid in a
particularly large stock of the finer. high
priced goods There is growing demand
for this class of goods which is a splendid
indication that the community is in pros
porous condition. The interurban lines are
helping the business of indianapolis.
A. M. Stewart, Of the Wulschner Music
Co.-All there is to say is that business is
good that 1t is in better condition than
ever before. From the fact that we are
already beginning to have Christmas trade.
l think 1t is safe to predict that the holiday
business I'm indianapolis this year will ex-
coed that of 1902, which was the banner
year for holiday trade with most mer-
chants.
]. p. Bonn, of the When Clothing CO.
Our business has been unusually good this
ldli, WHICH lnulCdteS tldl general business
conditions are healthy. 1 think trade gen.
orally has been on larger scale than last
| fall, and this Notwithstanding the fact that
the weather has not been as favorable
as we could have asked / look for a very
| large holiday business.
xxx
II. T. Hearsey, president OF the Hearsey
Vehicle Co.-The general tone of business in
Indianapolis is fully as good If not better
| than last year. Our particular line has
been held back somewhat this fall by the
weather but / think the fall and winter
trade a whole will be entirely satisfac-
| tory. From all / can gather the majority
of the large merchants are expecting a rec
ord bre dking holiday trade.
| Mr. Spain, of the Starr Piano Co-From
| what / can see of general business condi-
| tions, taking our own business as an indi-
cation, they are In a brisk healthy condi-
| ton. The prospects are good for a large
| holiday trade, larger than last year The
| now. i think. is the demand for higher
| grade goods. This indicates that the COM
| munity is getting on a better basis and has
more and more money for things that are
not exactly the necessities.

BUSINESS conditions in Indianapo-
III lis were never so good as they
~ have been this fall The majority
Ea of the representative Washing
ton-street merchants and other
nrorninent downtown merchants say the
volume OF retail business has been larger
than ever before. and that all indications
point to the holiday trade this year being
larger than the record-breaking business Of
last year.
The majority of the large wholesale mer-
chants are at one with the retail dealers
In the statement that Indianapolis Is in the
midst OF the most prosperous year In its
history. The wholesale dealers are es-
necially pleased over the fact t1at they are
not going TO have this year the usual dull
neriod between the early weeks OF Novem-
her and the first of December. The fact
that the large volume OF business con-
times right through the heretofore duh
weeks Is regarded as one OF the best indi-
cations that business conditions are better
than ever before.
What 10 the retail merchants Is fully as
vrattfvipg as the large volume of business
q the fact that they are having a larger
demand this fall for the higher grades Of
sentative merchants say this is one of the
notable features of this years business;
thar there is marked increase in the de-
mand for higher class goods This fact
is significant I'm that 1t shows that Indian
anolis. Is slowly but surely getting on a
more solid basis and that each succeed
ing year the people of this city have more
and more money TO spend In their homes.
Less of the lower priced and cheaper goods
Is being sold now, and instead indianapolis
e using more and more Of the higher
priced and even expensive things. In a

DOCTOR ARRESTED FOR MAIL
 PRACTICE.


 Alleged That He Attempted to Com
 init an Abortion on a Young Girl.
 Late yesterday afternoon bench warrant was issued for the arrest of Dr. Edmund s. Thomson of ,352 Grand avenue by Judge Robinson of the su- perior court, charging him with mal- practice. It is claimed that on or about June 30th he committed or attempted to commit an abortion on a young lady named Margaret O'Donnell, who re- sides in Fair Haven. Dr. Thomson was arrested at his office by Detectives Daley and McGrath and was immedl- ately brought before Judge Robinson. He was represented by Attorney David Fitzgerald, who stated to the court that he did not think it would be fair to his client to compel him to enter his plea at this time. as he had no time to consult with his counsel. States Attorney Williams said that he thought that the bonds ought to be placed at at least $2,000. Attorney Fitz- gerald thought that this bond was ex- orbitant, and the bond was finally placed at $1,500. Dr. Thomson was re- leased on bonds, last evening. The au- tforities are very reticent about the case and refuse to make any state ment. It was learned late last evening that the body of a dead child was found yesterday in the vicinity1of Tomlinson's bridge and it is thought that this was what had led to the arrest.
 Medical Examiner Bartlett when in. tervdewed in reference to the matter refused to say anything about it al present. The doctor viewed the re. mains and has not given out his de- cicio,o
