Highland is remote from the big finan-
cial centers, and temporary shake-up
is not noticeable at this distance. To
those who apprehended a real and con-
tlnuous panic with FALL its depressing and
demoralizing consequences, will be reas-
sured by the following paragraphs from
a lenghthy synopsis of business in the
United States, printed last week by the
New York Herald:
That business confidence is returning
with substantial emphasis throughout
the country, though conservatism natur..
ally still is much in evidence, is aJtested
by reports from all sections of the United
states which have been received here.
Throughout the territory extending froIn
the far West to the extreme East these
adyices indicate that industry is reyiying
from the depression incident to the recent
financial disturbance.
Financial authorities here, basing their
statements on accurate reports privately
obtained, assert that convincing evidence
of substantial returning confidence is
found in the number of mills and facto-
ries which have resumed operation. More
closed banks hsye reopened their doors:
BaLk note circulation has expanded
under special facilities offered.
One of the best features is held ITO be
the practical elimination of premium on
currency. Wholesale houses in many
centres are receiving orders of usual size
from country merchants. Retail trade is
more active and sales of holiday goods
are effectively supplementing the usual
dealings in staple merchandise, i.
Railroads which laid off thousands OF
workmen now are calling for great num-
bers of men and resuming improvements
AMI other work which haG been deferred
under the financial stress. In addition,
lower call money rates are stimulating
speculative purchases.

Dear Sir:-I will endeavor to

day, Sd, we drove to Staunton, took
lodging at the Highland House
that afternoon and left Wednesday
on the $50 train, arrived in Rich

Nuth and South Carolina and had
snow from Monterey to fifty miles
south of Columbia, South Carolina.
Weather was very cold and snow
through North and South Can oil
ma was even deeper than in Viz
ginia, and the snow did not melt
any during the day, that is, on
Thursday. As we neared Savannah
no snow; then, as we passed on in
to Georgia. we had warmer wealth

the most peverty-smitten countries

or starve to pass over the long dis
nAnce of poor country.
We were out two nights and one
nd a half days to make the trip to
Jacksonville, thence We left Jack

YOUNG CHOYNsKI EASY
FOR CLEVER TOM BARRY
Go Between Summers and
Abdul the Turk Proves
to Be a Joke

Tom Barry. the clever four round
lightweight, easily hung it on Young
Choynski in the main event of the
Brooklyn's show at Dreamland pavilion
last night. Barry took the lead from
the outset and successfully jabbed his
opponent all over the ring. Choynski
scored a knockdown in the first round,
but after that he never figured.
The go between Joe Summers and
Abdul the Turk was a joke. Neither
man knew anything about the game,
and after stalling around for four
rounds the bout was declared a draw.
Al Emmick won a hairline decision
over Charles Webber. Emmick injured
his right hand, but gamely went after
his man all the time.
Harry Riley. the welter weight, mixed
1t with Dick Hart, recent arrival from
Chicago. Riley was the aggressor
throughout and easily earned the deci-
sion. Frank Clark and Soldier Davis, a
pair Of unwieldly heavies, fought a four
round draw. Harry Dell easily out
pointed Frank Baroni. AL Young ref
creed the fights.

ANGELS WIN ANOTHER GAME
Defeat the San Francisco Team After
a Rather Dull Contest

Los ANGELES, June 2S.-The Angels
again won from San Francisco today
in an to game, which was not char
acterized by any remarkable playing.
Los Angeles used Nagle as slab art
ist, which was the only change in the
previous lineup In a vain hope of
changing their luck, the players from
the north tried another new battery.
Willis pitched and Street did the re-
ceiving. 1t was no use, however, for
Berry's men hit the ball many a time
and oft to the tune of eight runs. Two
of them were scored in the second in
ming, four in the fourth and two more
in the eighth. San Francisco had the
score tied with two runs in the fourth,
but when the Angels had completed
their half of the inning the frame was
badly overbalanced and the Seals never
had a lookin for the rest of the game.
After that inning the game dragged
on until the end, with very little to
kindle the enthusiasm of the fans.

The Beavers played their usual game
of ball yesterday afternoon and those
who have watched them perform since
the season opened will understand what
that means. Perhaps the undue ex-
citement that resulted from Thursdays
victory had something to do with their
poor playing or it may have been that
the team did not care to make it two in
row. AT all events, rough work was
in evidence and the Commuters went
as far as they cared to go.
Just as the game began to look uD
a bit and the fans were figuring on get
ting a flash of baseball. the northern
hosts lapsed into the old time sloveniy
form and Mr. Kinsella, who had pitched
nice ball during the opening innings,
could not locate the plate nor toss up p
twister good enough to fool the bats
men.
The rest of the players, with few
exceptions, were correspondingly bad.
They did not seem to care where they
tossed the ball, no matter how many
Commuters fingered on the bases
Judge McCreedie grabbed and shouted
as usual, but did no good, for the men
on his salary list never for moment
awakened to the fact that they were
in the game.
Oakland put one across in the open
ing spasm when Smith landed on
Schimpffs tumble. was sacrificed to
third by Van Haltren and Heitmuller
and tore in as soon as Truck EAgan
relieved himself of ground ripper
over second In the next period, Bliss
walked, Bigbee sacrificed and Haley
sent the run in by slamming one to left.
Portland broke in for the first time
during the fourth. Bassey led off with
a crack to center and a passed ball
advanced him a step on his journey.
WcCreedie did the rest by laying up
q gainst fast one that kept on going
till ii hit the right field fence.
The sixth inning was where the
Beavers quit for good and the Com
nuters gathered two. Van Haltren led
off with two bagger to right ana
Heitmuller followed with single.
Eagan took one in the Stats, making
it a full house. Bliss lifted long fly
to center which Donahue neatly
trapped with one mitt, doubling up
Heine, who tried to beat the throw
TO third. Van Haltren in the meantime
had rushed in.
The scoring should have stopped
there but Kinsella walked Bigbee and
failed TO cover the bag when Haley sent
an easy one to Carson. While the chase
for the sphere was in progress Eagan
kept on running and reached home with
some time to spare
In the eighth another hit, a base on
balls and Kinsella's wild pitch put
Bliss through. McCreedie performed
the only creditable sticking feat for MS
gang in the ninth. He laced three
cushioner to the clubhouse,w which should
have been a home run had the Beaver
leader saw fit to show some speed on
the paths. He got in anyhow, for
Moore lifted a long fly to Heitmuller

STEEL COMBINATION
Will Compete With Trusts
in America and
Germany

LONDON, June 2S.-A great combfha-
ton of steel and iron manufacturers
similar to those existing in the United
States and Germany is in course of
formation in Great Britain with the
avowed object of combating American
and German competition, which is in
creasing. Nine big companies, headed
by Nickers Sons and Maxim, have as
sembled Sc previously Independent con-
Germs which will give them control, II
is estimated, of about 90 per cent OF
the steel produced in Great Britain. II
IS probable that the combination viii
involve regulation OF prices, adjust
ment of output to demand and equal
distribution Of orders.
What is primarily aimed at, it IS
asserted, is combination strong
enough not only to control the trade
OF Great Britain, but to dominate the
steel trade of the world" The COM
bined capital Of the proposed combina-
tion is $780, 100000.
