Midsummer quiet is more in evidence,
but no loss of strength appears in the
general conditions supporting the business
outlook The recent ratio of gain in the
volume of payments through banks is not
sustained this wees and the record of
trading defaults again compares unfavor-
ably in numbers with those a year ago.
The leading Industries disclose no spe
'cial change. Satisfactory weather per-
mits factory production to run without
hindrance, and the volume of distribution
of finished products and general merchan-
disc makes an increasing exhibit, although
there is smaller movement of grain, due
to decreased marketing,.
New demands in iron and steel aggre-
gate no less than expected at this time,
but there are more bookings of contracts
for cars and other equipment, and in
quiries increase for rails and plates to be
taken next year. Furnaces work close
to capacity.
Operations at the mines are now rushed
in the effort to overcome the setback caus-
ed by the strike.
A further decline is established in cop
per, but other markets for raw materials
continue steady.
Building activity retains a good out
look. The wholesale markets for staples
advance in activity.
Agricultural affairs are seen to be
much better than a month ago, and the
returns obtained for grain and live stock
steadily enrich growers throughout the
West. Harvest reports indicate season.
able progress, with winter wheat and
oats making good yields. Corn improves
right along and spring wheat sections
send in more encouraging advices. Sup
plies of live stock fail to measure up ade-
q~uately, and this brings the highest values
recorded this year for choice beeves and
further rise in hogs, products of the lat
ter also making a higher average cost

Twenty Killed md Much Property

Loss of human lives and destruction
of property valued at more than $1,000
900 were caused by fires in New York
and its immediat tie vicinity in the twenty
four hours ending at s a. m. Monday.
Twenty persons are dead and fifteen suf-

suited from the destruction of the Loy 3
Beach hotel at Long Beach, L. l., Mon
day and the Steeplechase park and other
property at Coney Island Sunday.
In addition, the steamship Hamilton of
the Old Dominion line came into port
Sunday with part of her hold ablaze. The
Hamilton was at her dock before any of
the passengers knew there was a fire on
board. The flames were extinguished,
after about $4,000 damage had been
done. The explosion of a bomb placed,
the police believed, by agents of the
"Black Hand in an Italian grocery store
on Christie street, started the fire which
swept through the teeming Italian tene-
ment and destroyed the lives of a score
Of people and injured fifteen others. The
noise of The explosion caused a panic IN
the densely populated district. The police
say that many persisted in the flames,
fearing to escape to the streets, where
they believed death awaited them from
the dreaded BLACK Hand" A second
explosion from Il kerosene tank followed
and the whole lower ioo was a mass of
flames from blazing oil.
The fire shot up the stairways. cutting
off all escape from those in the bedrooms
above. Many rushed to the fire escapes,
which became cloggcd with frightened
people. The house was filed with dense
smoke and the flames, rushing upstairs,
drove the half-crazed people toward the
roof. The flames killed many as they
were about to be rescued from the roof,
while others were overcome by smoke.
There were many heroic rescues by fire
men.
The bodies of the dead were found in
all manner of places. OF women were
discovered dead in a closet, where they
had rushed to hide from the flames, which
found them out. The body of a woman
was found lying over a child, as though
she had tried to protect it from the
flames. Five bodies were found crowded
around one doorway or the top floor,
showing that they had been struck down
wEiia trying to escape.
The fire wave FIRST struck Coney Island
Sunday and before it subsidized Steeple-
chase park, a score of hotels and many
amusement attractions were in ruins and

LIVES LOST AS BOAT BURNS.
ome and Children Jump Into Wa
ter in New York StaIe In pnnin

Women and Children jump Into Wa
ter in New York State In Panic.
Notable examples of heroiSm, as well
as a few examples of cowardice, attended
the burning and sinking of the steamer
Frontenac on Cayngn lake, New York,
Saturday. The death list is believed to
be limited to eight, the number first re-
ported. 4 search along Cayuga lake
and in and underneath the charred hulk
of the steamer failed to reveal any more
bodies, and the officials think that no
more lives were lost. No inquiries have
come in to Ithaca or Union Springs for
persons not accounted for.
The accident happened about two miles
south CT Union Springs. Just before the
boat reached Aurora about fifty persons
were ready to go aboard, but the high
wind prevented the boat from landing.
This undoubtedly saved many from death.
The fire was started by throwing a
cigarette or match into the companion
way.
One of the most pathetic incidents was
the death of little Grace Abel. Her
grandmother jumped with the child held
close in her arms. She was rescued
while at the point of death and her fgSt
exclamation was, Il am so glad the baby
has been saved" Yet the child had been
dead for some time.
Notable examples of heroism were
prevalent on all sides. Little Frank Al
colt, II years old, towed his grandmother
ashore on a life raft with the simple
remark. Il padded my hardest to save
my grandmother, because she was alone
and could not swim" Roland Genung.
son of Sheriff Genung, absolutely refused
to leave the boat without his mother.
Both were saved. Mrs. Iuthill, n woman
of 70, jumped overheard with her daugh-
ter and both reached the shore in safety.
Although there were many stirring
deeds of heroism, it must be recorded
that here and there in the gathering there
was a cowardly heart. For there were
men on the steamer who thought only of
their own safety, and not only refused to
assist the helpless women and children,
but actually thrust them %ruthlessly aside
in a mad endeavor to reach the side OF
the steamer.

KOREA COWS TO JAPAN.
Mikado's Complete Control of the
Empire IL shown.

En- 4 ls shoNNn.
What Is REGARDED as virtually a dec
laration Of Japan's policy in regard to
Korea has been given out by Fiscount
Hayashi, the Japanese minister of for
eign affairs. The Niscount's statement
amounted to a declaration to the world
that Japan had taken complete control
of Korea and had assumed the role Of
protector as we'll, and that the Japa-
nese army and navy would defend the
Mikado's rights in the empire, as Jap
anees statesmen will control its deS-
tiny. "1
The agreement which was signed be-
tween Japan and Korea, Viscount Fla
yashi said, contained Japan's whole
program in Korea.
1.-THE provisions of the new agree
ment We're anticipated in the protec-
torate agreement of 1907 he said,
and complete our obligations, with
the accompanying responsibility to pro-
tect."
The foreign minister asserted that
matters now derolve upon Marquis Ito,
who was more than a premier and

doubled, adding that Japan's response
biilties in Korea were now enormous.
Touching upon the American ques-
ton, Viscount IIayashi said: 1T is a
fact that the Japanese people have for
gotten the American question in the
Korean crisis, which has shown the lit
/! tie Importance attached by the public
e., Nv ,,r,,,r U'hn Lao llrc in tho oui-
tation in Japan are men who have gone
astray in their judgment of public
! questions.
IF the fate of Korea may be regard
ed by China as a lesson, it should be a
warning to hat country to put her
| house in order ere some strong nation,
which ever one might be moved so to
do, initiated events in Seoul"
The new agreement betwesn Japan
and Korea is as follows:
THE governments of Japan and ko-
rea, in view of the early attainment
of prosperity and strength in Korea
and the speedy promotion of the well
fare of the Korean people, have agreed
upon and concluded the following stip-
Article /. The government of Korea
shall follow the direction of the resi-
dent general in connection with the re-
form of the administration.
art. 2. Korea shall not enact any
law or ordinance or carry out any adj
ministrative measure unless it has the
previous approval of the resident gen.
eral.
art. 8. Judicial affairs Of Korea
shall be kept distinct from ordinary
administrative affairs.
"Art 4. No appointment or dismiss.
al Of Korean officials of high grade
shall be made without the consent OF
the resident general.
EAR 5. Korea shall appoint to Off.
cial positions such Japanese as are rec.
commended by the resident general.
cart. 6. Korea shall not engage any
foreigner without the consent Of the
resident general"

Medical Colleges Condemned.

A special committee of the American
Medical Association, which was appointed
three years ago to investigate the instruc-
ton and standards of the various medi-
cal colleges in the United States. has
now submitted its report which condemns
about one-half of all the so-calied med.
ical colleges. Among the members of the
committee are: Doctors Bevan of Chi
cago, Frazier of Pennsylvania university,
Witherspoon of Nashville, Councilman
of Boston, Vaughn of Ann Arbor and
Colwell of Chicago. The committee finds
that there are too many of these schools
in which preliminary education is, insuffi-
cient, and in which the course of inStruc-
ton is inadequate and the lack of. train
ed teachers evident. 1t appears that
there are now in this country 16O medi-
cal schools, or as many as in all Europe.
The report holds that the great advance
in the sciences in recent years has made
necessary a much broader and more thor
ough course of medical education than
formerly prevailed. 1t insists hat a
four-year high school course is required;
a year of physics, chemistry and biology
two years of practical laboratory work
two years of clinical work in hospitals,
and a year as inferno in a hospital. To
provise adequate equipment. medical
schools must be endowed. 1t is oun
that many of our medical schools are still
conducted solely for profit, which is con-
trary to the spirit of true attainment.
