ALL INDUSTRY ACTIVE
TRADE CONDITIONS sATIsFAC.
TORY FOR TILE sEAsoN-sUM,
MARY OF THE WEEK. /

New York, June 1e.-Bradstreet's of today
Gays:
Trade and industry conditions are satisfac-
eory considering the season Of the year. The
main point being that business in general is not
only of average proportion, but Is in many
siaes quite IN excess of that Of year ago.
While some parts of the week were too cool
have been satisfactory, especially regards de-
mand for summer fabrics. Fall orders for
many lines of goods coming forward in
goodly volume, and jobbers appear optimistic
rs to the outlook. Machinery is we'll employed
the country over tho summer shutdowns will
be more in evidence from now on. The labor
situation, while still disturbed at some points.
has improved IL anything. There Is better
tone to pig iron. the production of which is
decreasing, and consumption is heavy, that fact
preventing any large accumulation Of stocks.
Railway earnings are very large, and the in
crease for May being IA per cent, thus stamping
the month as the best May on record.
Building Is active. hence immense demand for
hardware and materials in general Is we'll main
sained tho yellow pine displays some weakness.
Prices Of commodities in general are, however,
close to the record level At San Francisco con-
dittons are improving.

NEW CONSULAR LAW
PUT INTO PRACTICE

y. Ma NH zE@sg
Special to The Journal.
Washington, June l6.-The state de-
partmentea5 began yesterday making
transfers and promotions under the new
consular law.
It was one Of the regrets of the coun-
try thatIcongress, before passing this
measure, struck from it the ciyil-service
provisions which it originally included.
The inference is now easy, however,
that it is the intention of President
Roosevelt to accomplish thru admins
tration what he failed to accomplish
thru statute. 1t is understood that the
regulations of the state department,
made under the new law, will provide
for promotions and transfers, as the
bill originally did, and that the presi-
dent will enforce the civil-service prin-
ciple in the bill in the matter of max
ing new appointments. These appoint
ments are to be made at the bottom,
and the places higher up are to be filed
by promotions at least during this .ad-
ministration. There may be- occasion
ally an exception to this rule, but they
will be as few as possible. ~
1t was not possible for North Dako-
ia, under this system, to be given
Major Edwards successor as consul
general at Montreal Instead of going
to an outside man, this important post
Went to Church Howe, the Nebraska
spellbinder, who, since 1908, has been
kota has left two consular positions of
Importance. John r. Bray. is consul
general at Melbourne, and has received
recognition in an increase Of salary.
S. Bergh is consul at Dusseldorf.
On q population basis this is the state =
full quota. In having three consular
places it had overreached a bit.
L
ference report on the diplomatic and
consular appropriation bill without de.
bate. The bill now goes to the presi
dent for approval.

Mr.. Deukeling became i'll after partaking
things he ate were corncakes. His wife and

sible she had picked up a bottle containing
poison when she reached for the soda.

Of consequence In the immediate future. Ship
