CARNEGIE IS OPTIMISTIC.
Genuine Business VIII Not Suffer b,
Financial FURRY.

New York, Oct. 2S.--Andrew Car
negie. upon his return from Europe
after q long vacation abroad, ex-
pressed himself In a most optimistic
way concerning the financial situa.
tion
Il was delighted TO read the latest
news" he said. Il am surprised that
the fall In stocks has been SO small
This proves that the situation is not
alarming and that the country is all
right. Investors have only to hold
or. The financial authorities have
acted boldly but wisely and the furry
will soon blow over. II is quite right
that savings banks should require no
tice.
1T should not be forgotten, how.
over, that We have had the greatest
expansion of modern times and sure
as fate reaction must come and has
already begun, but 1t will be healthful
We may have season Of less activ.
ity In trade, but that will be followed
inc due time by another period OF ex
pansion. Nothing can prevent the
rapid progress of the republic She Is
all right and bound to distance all
competitors in the race. Speculation
will be less to the front for time, but
genuine business will not suffer seri
ously
1T lies in the nature of things thai
the attempt to attribute the recen
and spasmodic fall In prices to tht
wise and in the truest sense the truly
conservative resolve OF the president
and his cabinet to enforce the salutary
laws against the abuse OF their pow
ers by certain trusts Is only devict
to serve political intrigue"

TO REMEDY SITUATION
Important Steps Taken by New

CONDITIONS MORE NORMAL
As Precautionary Measure Clearing

New York. Oct. 25--The stock ex-

day without any further failures OF
Importance, with considerable inn
provement In the stock market and
with several important remedial
measures taken or agreed upon to
strengthen the financial situation. The
Dnly reverse of the day was the sus-

out any Importance in the general
financial world Already arrangements
for the importation OF gold are we'll
under way and it Is hoped this will
furnish tho relief needed. 1t is un-
derstood that the treasury department
will, as heretofore, advance the gold
for immediate use so as to save the
time occupied in transit from Eu-
rope
Meanwhile, as precautionary
measure, although not regarded vitality
essential, the clearinghouse has au
thorized the issuance of loan certifi

house banks are to present united
front in this emergency and that the
aggregate resources of all of them are

each.

not alarming, since at this period OF
the year such drafts are to be ex
pected for the purpose of moving the

The imposition of the ninety days
rule in Rhode Island stopped runs
there and matters assumed normal
phase
The stock market opened at an
advance and showed little symptoms
OF serious agitation. London and
other foreign points also gave reas

was such as to facilitate gold imports
and confidence abroad was evidenced
by the improved tone of all foreign

Wall Street in Order to Avoid Gov
ernment Operation.
Chicago, Oct. 2S.''If the railroads.
and the corporations claim the square
deal they must be willing to give a
square deal. The president wants
neither more nor less from citizen,
official, corporation, state or nation
than that which Is right. just and
fair"
This declaration was made by f. F..
Clark, member of the interstate COM
merce commission, at dinner given
by the Traffic club of Chicago and at
which he vigorously defended the
presidential policy and insisted ve-
hemently that 1t must continue to the
end. Mr.. Clark was the principal
speaker and the subject under discus
sion was the prosy one of "Car Eff.
cheney" The commissioner seized
the occasion, however, to issue an
emphatic warning not only to the rail
roads but to the shippers and to the
Industrial and commercial interests OF
the country generally. The men who
listened to the message, so full Of
great import, were men who had made
commercial and traffic history both as
officials of railroads and of industrial
corporations.
In his peroration Commissioner
Clark sent broadsides into the ranks
OF presidential critics and placed this
estimate upon the chief executive:
History will write Theodore Roose-
velt as one of the nations immortal
executives, who in his day saved the
republic from impending destruction. =
The commissioner took occasion to
deplore the high finance with which.
| he insisted, the majority of our rail-
roads Is tainted; declared that 1t was
time the railroads Were run for the
people and not In the interest of Wall
street; excoriated the railroads for
not better meeting the demands OF
| increasing tonnage; blamed the ship
pers for not having kept pace In the
matter OF facilities with increasing
business: Indignantly denied that the
presidential policy had contributed to
the present financial furry: sang the
gospel OF cooperation between the
railroads. the shippers and the ad-
ministration as sweetly and eloquent.
