some Of the present great strength of prices
or most commodities may be attributed to the
erations betray effects OF conservatism some
time ago predicted, but il Is yet too early to
measure the possible extent 20 which the sea-
sons turnover will contrast with the excep-
tionally large business done In all lines one
year ago. Railroad operations, owing TO Sc
we're weather in January, are resulting in do
creased gross earnings OF the reduced net earn
ings for December. Outside OF the division of
some immediate distributive business from
the burned city to other markets the effects
OF the Baltimore FIRE have been striking in
contrast with corresponding events In the dis
tant past. Good management OF. the insurance
business Is illustrated in the fact that with
possible loss of S65. 600. 600. no real embar-
rassment in meeting obligations is expected
and the restoring Of the city TO normal condi-
tions Is making swift progress. Cold weather
