MANY FAVORABLE FEATURES
OUTLOOK FOR BUSINESS GROWS
STEADILY BRIGHTER.
Leading Commercial Agencies Find
Much for Congratulation in
the Situation.

New York, Oct 1O-R. G. Dun's Week
ly Review of Trade says: with the
crops almost beyond danger, prices OF
securities at the highest point since May
1908, and idle machinery resuming at
many factories and mills that have been
closed for months, the business outlook
grows steadily brighter. By far the best
manifested by an increased disposition
to provide for future requirements. This
is by no means general, but it is noticed
at pig iron furnaces, wooden mills and
among dealers at widely separated
points, particularly those located in the
agricultural sections Mercantile COL
lections are also more prompt, and rail-
way earnings for the month of September
were 3.S per cent. larger than in the same
month last year, while foreign commerce
at this port for the last week shows in
creases of 81, 051 ,20S in imports and $410,-
748 in exports as compared with year
ago. Dispatches from the leading cities
are almost unanimous in telling of i'm
proved conditions.
Failures this week in the United
States are 222, against 223 last week, 225
the preceding week and 23S the CORE
spending week last year. Failures in
Canada number rs, against Is last week,
30 in the preceding week and II last
year."
Bradstreet's says: Popular esti-
mates of leading crop yields continue to
enlarge, corn has passed out of danger
of serious frost damage in the west, and
distribution, both at wholesale and re-
tail, expands as cooler weather ap-
proaches. Additional favorable features
are the continuance of the good tone in
pig iron, freer buying by railways of ma
terial and rolling stock and heavy gen.
eral crop movement helping collections
north and south. While the buying of
dry goods, hardware, groceries, shoes
and clothing continues of good volume.
particularly at the west, conservative in
f1uences find reflection in small but fire.
quent orders, calculated to meet neces-
sites. The transportation movement is
heavy. and railway earnings show an ex-
panding tendency, the gain for Septem-
Der promising to be six per cent. over

Charges AGAINST
KING OF BELGIUM
LEOPOLD IS HELD RESPONSIBLE
FOR CRUELTIES PRACTICED
IN THE CONGO.
PUBLIC SESSION OF
PEACE CONGRESS HELD
Belgian Ruler Also Denounced by
Booker r. Observation-Disclosures
Favoring Investigation Of Present
Government Repcrted.

Boston, Oct. licking Leopold, of Bel
GUM, was assailed for his policy as SOW
ereign of the Congo Free State at a pub
lie meeting held Friday afternoon ir
connection with the session of the in
ternational peace congress. The attack
upon King Leopold was made by E. T.
Morell, of England, who represented the
Congo Reform association. Mr.. Morell
charged that the king was personally re-
sponsible in large measure for cruel
ties practiced on the natives of the Congo
Free State in the terrific endeavors OF
monoplistic commercial organizations
to obtain from the country all the ivory
and rubber possible. The king was de.
Tended by George Herbert Head, of Cam.
bridge, England, who submitted that
King Leopold had done all possible tc
stop the cruelties practiced. The gov.
eminent policy in the Congo also was
bitterly denounced by Rev. w. M. Nor.
rison, for seven years a missionary in
the Congo land.
Denounced King Leopold.
In brief after-dinner speech, deliv.
cred before the international peace
congress Friday night, Booker 7
Washington arraigned the Belgian
government for the alleged outrages
in the Congo free state, declaring that
he had evidence of abuse and cruelty
and said that state of affairs existed
that was blot upon modern civiliza'
ton.
Investigation Favored.
At the closing session of the peace
congress Saturday, the committee on
questions of the day reported resolu-
tons in favor of an investigation into
the present government of the Congo
Free State. The resolutions embod-
led three questions which they de-
clared should be referred either to a
renewed conference of the powers con-
cerned in the formation of the Congo
Free State, or to The Hague court of
arbitration. The questions follow:
1. Is the government of the Congo
Free State still to be regarded as the
trustee of the powers which recognize
the flag of the international assocla-
ton?
2. Is the Belgian government to be
regarded as responsible for the actions
of the government Of the Congo Free
State?
3. In either of these events what is
the position of the Congo Free State
in international law, and in u1at
manner may the grave questions con-
corning it's alleged actions be salts
factorily and competently determined?
The reporting committee agreed to
strike out reference to the Belgian gov
ernment's responsibility, and the re-
port as amended then was adopted unan-
imously.
Resolutions were adopted rejoicing il
the international treaties.
