JOHN NJ. HARLAN.

Gals than at any previous time since
the war opened is manifest. The war
party still maintains threatening
front and declares that the idea or
seeking a settlement is ridiculous.
That the ministry is seriously weigh
ing the possibility Of getting an honor
able and not too costly settlement
however, cannot be doubted. Ii 1t
could have definite assurances that the
penalties which Japan will exact are
not too severe it probably would be-
gin peace overtures at once.
Just what price Japan will demand
is still wholly matter of conjecture.
The Chicago Daily News says that un-
doubtedly Japan will require the ces-
sion of Port Arthur and the Liaotung
peninsula, international control of the
Chinese Eastern railway and the per-
manent withdrawal Of Russia from
Manchuria. If this Is all it requires
Russia apparently is likely to strike a
bargain. If it adds q cash indemnity
or a demand for the cession of any
Russian territory, none Of which has
vet been occupied by Japanese forces,
Russia may conclude to continue the
war. 1t has still to consider the posi-
bility that Rojestvenskyrs fleet may
accomplish something and it may be
that negotiat lions are now delayed only
to see what the result Of the approach
ing naval battle will be.
Meantime Japan continues its prep
arations for further fighting and pays
no heed to gossip Of peace. The inter
views of its diplomatic representatives
indicate that Japan means to insist
upon a cash indemnity. If that is to
be it's attitude the probability of an
early peace would seem to depend
largely upon whether the victor is will
ing to make the dose less disagree
able by allowing the payment to be
made under some other name. In its
present plight Russia might agree to
nav a handsome sum ostensibly to re-
imburse Japan for divers incidental
expenSes.

and confidence in the future induce a
wider distribution in practically ali
sections except the South, where con-
siderable irregularity appears, some
markets reporting expansion, while
others advise of contraction, compared
with a year ago. Dry goods. clothing,
groceries, shoes, hardware, farm I'M

terial show relatively most activity.
All reports indicate great activity in
railway circles. Merchandise ship
ments and high class freight are very
large, grain tonnage is heavy for this
season, and complaints of car shortage
still come, though the situation has
improved slightly. Gross receipts for
January gained 6 per cent, while net
increased II per cent. Collections still
lag, but money has turn firmer,
probably a reflection of increased de-
mands in regular trade lines.

I-I G.. Dun q Co., the mer-
camille agency, says:
Developments have continued favor
able to business, and the volume Of
production and distribution steadily
expanded, new demands imparting a
more encouraging tone in operations,
especially with reference to future
employment. A larger use of money
now is evident, and the showing OF
the local national banks creates a good
impression.
With the seasonable weather which
mainly prevailed, the leading retail
lines were enabled to make a satisfac-
tory advance. Personal buying was
very largely augmented throughout
the jobbing division, and the manu-
featuring branches added materially to
bookings.
Iron and steel gained additional
strength from the orders receiv d for
rails, pig iron, plates, and structural
material. Prices have maintained firm
ness and became higher for sheets
Inquiries show that the railroads will
make further notable purchases OF
rolling stock and track material, and
considerable bridge work is contem-
plated.
The market exhibited we'll distrib-
uted demand, and Notwithstanding the
large supplies there was satisfactory
absorption and steadiness in values.
Leather and sundries were in good re-
quest, and the leather working
branches, particularly shoes, obtained
fair amount of new business for fall
delivery.
Breadstuffs experienced a good de-
mand, and the Bsovement Of grain
reached unusually large proportions.
Bank clearings, S19S,052, 99S, were
1914 per cent over those of correspond
ing week last year. Money was in
steady demand, and the discount rate
for choice commercial paper ranged
from to per cent
Failures reported in the Chicago
district numbered twenty-five, against
twenty last week and twenty a year
ago.

STREET CARS THE ISSUE.
An Extraordinary Municipal Campaign
in Progress in Chicago.

Two candidates for Mayor, who pro-
pose to achieve municipal ownership of
the street railway system by different
methods, are giving Chicago one of the
most picturesque campaigns in its his
tory. One is John Maynard Harlan, the
Republican nominee, and the other is
Judge Edward F. dunno, the choice of
the Democrats.
Judge Dunno is generally looked upon
as the real municipal ownership candi-
date. The Municipal Ownership League
has indorsed him, and many of the So
cialists have announced their intention to
vote for him.
Dunno proposes to offer the traction
companies a fair price for their tangible
properties and a reasonable compensa-
ton for the franchises which have yet
a term of years to run. If the companies
refuse to sell, he proposes to go at once
into the courts. He will endeavor to
