BUSINESS ON
FIRM FOOTING.
Director of Mint Says That
Country Was Never in a More Pros
porous Condition Than Now.

CHICAGO. Aug. 2.-George f. Roberts,
former director of the mint, assumed his
new position as president of the CONNER
cial National Sank on his arrival in Chi
cago from Washington yesterday.
Mr.. Roberts worked at his desk in Wash
ington up to the last minute before train
time wednesday night, clearing up his
work as director of the mint.
THE prospects for business are excel
lent throughout the country said Mr..
Roberts. Il believe that the slight check
we have experienced during the past
few months has been a good thing. 1t
has proved beyond question that business
in his country 5 on a firm footing.
Capital undoubtedly was invested pretty
neal to the limit. and the brief period of
stringency through which business has
Just passed served TO show that the re-
sources of the country were great enough
to Withstand any temporary pressure that
over-investment may cause. The country
was never in a more prosperous condi-
ton han It is now, and business was
never on a sounder basis

TYING UP TRAFFIC.
Turning of Boats Propeller and Heavy
Strain Caused the Chicago to Keel
Over-No One Injured.

CHICAGO, Ang. 2.-Coming into harbor
with a heavy tow last night, the tug Chi
cago heeled over just east of the Rush
street bridge across the Chicago River,
turning turtle with four men on board,
managed to save themselves.
All lake traffic was tied up for an hour.
The sunken vessel lies almost directly
across the river, practically unchanged,
waiting to be pumped out,
The tug was towing in the steamer
Muncy, of the Anchor line, loaded heavily
with grain. and coming In stern first, as
1t was impossible to turn round except In
the outer harbor. The Muncy is $50 feet
long, with a 60-foot beam. The churning of
the big boats propeller and the heavy
strain on the smaller craft caused 1t to
heel over until it took in water on the
starboard side. The tug tripped on the
towline and before the crew could cut the
hawser 1t turned turtle.
