MILLS BEHIND IN ORDERS.
Rail Business Quiet, Although Large
Contracts Are Pending-Activity
at Tin Mills.

Progress is more rapid in manu-
facture than in distribution, but this
is largely due to the effect of un-
seasonable weather at some points
and the unsettled feeling in the South,
where the collapse OF cotton prices
has retarded collections and caused
many cancellations. That production is
maintained By mills and furnaces may
be taken as evidence OF confidence in
the future.
Iron and steel plants lead in ac-
tivity, with woolens the feature in
textile fabrics. Settlement of the pro-
tracted labor struggle at Fall River is
encouraging, but the industrial at
mosphere is disturbed elsewhere, al
though, on the whole, there is less
than the customary idleness Of this
season. Prices of newly opened lines
OF woolens are higher, as was to be
expected in view of the position of the
raw material, but consumption is not
curtailed. Similar strength in foot
wear has restricted, buyers in the
Boston market placing few contracts.
Railway earnings for January thus far
show gain OF 2.3 per cent.
Foreign commerce at New York is
also better than year ago, the last
week showing gains of S1,555,SS9 in
value of imports and s2929S in ex-
ports. Scarcely any alteration in
quotations of iron and steel is the best
possible guarantee of continued ac-
tivity. Conservatism now controls
the situation, holding prices at posi-
tion that is attractive considering
the volume of business and cost OF
production. Coke ovens are establish
ing new records of fuel output and
traffic conditions cause little delay
Very extensive contracts for machin-
cry are pCnding, and considerable
quantity of pipes and tubes are want
ed, while the Pittsburg mills are be-
hind on deliveries Of billets and bars.
Tin plate mills are not only fully en-
gagged but have orders running well
into the future.
Structural steel and rails are quiet.
although large contracts are pending.
Hides are still firm as o rule, except
that some declines are recorded on
packer native, as these constitute the
bulk of current receipts. This is
seasonable influence, and does not
detract from the general tone of
strength.

TO STUDY FOREIGN TRADE.
President Urges Naming of Six
Commercial Attaches"

The President sent a message to
the Senate recommending favorable
action upon suggestion of Assistant
Secretary Loomis for cooperation by
the Departments of State and Com
merce and Labor in collecting infor-
nation concerning trade conditions
in foreign countries. The President
recommends that provision be made
for six special agents to be called
commercial attaches, to visit the diff
ferent countries.
The details of the proposed plan
are set out in long letter from
Secretary Loomis, who feels his plan
can be put into execution at a cost of
$4,000 per annum. Six commercial
attaches or special agents will be
sufficient to initiate the movement.
They would be salaried at $4,000 per
annum and travelling expenses, and
would be assigned one to cover Aus
tria, the Balkan States, Germany,
Switzerland, Russia and other coun-
tries of Northern Europe; one for
France, Italy, Portugal, Spain and
other countries bordering on the
Mediterranean sea; a third for Great
Britain and dependencies; the fourth
for Mexico, Central America, the West
indies and South America; the fifth
for Asia and more particularly Asiatic
Russia, China and Japan, and the
sixth to be held in reserve for special
service.

MUST OBSERVE NEUTRALITY
Unined States Acts Favorably on
Russian Note.
CHINA AGAIN WARNED.
Secretary Hay Says Interests Of
World Require Strict Neutrality.

China's attention has again been
indirectly invited by the American
Government to the necessity for a
faithful maintenance of her neutrali-
but in the interest of the worlds
peace.
Secretary Hay, on the receipt of the
full text of Count Lamsdorff's note
expressing Russia's belief that Chinas
neutrality had been repeatedly vio-
lated, prepared instructions for the
American charge at Peking, directing
him to make inquiry of the Chinese
government regarding the situation.
1t is especially declared that this
action cannot in any way be con-
strued as indicating that this Govern
ment assumes responsibility for the
charges made by Russia. Indeed, this
Government has received no ,informa-
tion through it's legation at Peking,
nor through the various American
consulates in China, that the Chinese
are violating the rules of neutrals.
Nevertheless, in view of Russia's eX-
pressed anxiety over the situation in
China, which her investigation dis
closes, the American Government is
ready to do what it can to save
China and the other neutral powers
from the far-reaching complications
which it is feared would follow
an extension to Chinese territory
of the zone of hostilities.
This is the second time Sec
retary Hay, in friendly spirit,
has urged on China the advantages
which a strict observation of neutrali-
ty holds, not only for her people, but
the remainder of the world.
1t can be stated that this Govern
ment by no means has abandoned the
hope China may yet be saved from an
extension of hostilities across the
borders of Manchuria
