CHICAGO.

Developments in commercial affairs
disclose a sustained confidence in the out
look. May payments through the banks
usually are test of soundness. and it is
notable that while much heavier this
month than heretofore, there is no special
pressure in money and defaults remain
remarkably small. Low temperature yet
delays seasonable activity in leading
retail lines, but less fear is felt as to the
crops. Transportation by rail and lake
reflects an enormous tonnage movement
of freight. and new demands make con-
siderable addition to the assured period
of future employment at the mills and
factories, although the upward trend of
costs and difficulty in getting necessary
supplies TO some extent hinder operations.
Shippers find railway facilities steadily
improving, and, with the water ways
fully opened up. the conditions become
more favorable for increasing movements
of ore, coal and forest products. The
markets for raw materials reflect rapid
consumption. Reports from the agricul-
tural districts show that farmers spend
literally for implements and improve
ments, and seeding makes good progress
where adverse weather has not interfered.

WORK FOR DOLLAR WHEAT.
Farmers Pledge Themselves Not to
Sell Until Price Is Reached.

Farmers in Nebraska who have thous-
ands of acres of land in wheat have
entered into an agreement not to sell
their crop until wheat sells for 81 IN
Chicago. The agreement was entered
into by the farmers at Hastings few
days ago following an address delivered
there by j. A. Everett of Indianapolis,
one of the officers of the American So
ciety of Equity. which is conducting a
vigorous campaign for the advancement
of wheat TO the 81 mark. Farmers
throughout Nebraska are being solicited
to pledge themselves to hold their wheat
till the price reaches the 81 mark IN
Chicago and farmers in other western
states are also being solicited to do So

Der of counties in the southern part OF
the state, which at first was pronounced
TO be the aphis or green bug. which has
destroyed the whe;y crop of Texas ana
done great damage TO that OF Kansas ana
Oklahoma, is found not to be the aphis.
Professor Bruner OF the Department OF
Entomology of the University of Ne

cies. but he is not prepared to say what
damage it may work. If it does no
damage and there is sufficient moisture
the yield OF wheat in Nebraska will be
very large one.

To promotc CHURCH Harmony.

The perplexing question of securing
harmony and cooperation between Catho-
lies and Protestants was recently dis
cussed in public address by Prof. Adolf
Harnack of Berlin. A better understand
ing. or modus vivendi, he thinks, is not
to be brought about By Catholics becom-
ing Protestants. or vice versa. a hope that
even the dreamer cannot entertain. He
would, however. attain the desired end by
"a having religion and the church alb
solutely divorced from politics: CD let
the State do full justice without prefer
ence or interference with the Internal
affairs Of the churches: (3) let all I'M
necessary controversies between the lead
ers of the different churches. be avoided,
and let all past sins and controversies be
buried; (4) let the leaders of both
churches try to understand each other
and appreciate the good things in the OPP
posing church. and TO this end he would
have the theologians of each branch at
tend the lectures in the church.

INDUSTRIAL PEACE PREVAILS.
May Day Found Little Unrest Among
Workers of America

Workers of America.
Labor conditions in Chicago and
throughout the entire country were more
peaceful May l than has been the case
in years. While May l is cerebrated in
this country only by the socialists. it has
in past years been day OF industrial
unrest because many wage contracts ex-
pire ut that time and strikes are common
before agreements are renewed.
In Chicago, a dispatch says, there is
not a strike OF consequence. In the
building industry, which gives employ
ment to 10000, wage agreements in every
craft have been renewed. Nearly all
branches Of the building trades have Sc
cured wage advances this year, either I'M
der new agreements which have been
made or through the terms of existing
contracts which run for another year.
While there was a general Stacking up
of work reported few weeks ago. which
made it necessary TO reduce working
forces in some large plants. business is
again reported brisk and labor is almost
as well employed as it was year ago.
Reports from various cities show sim
liar conditions prevailing throu shout the
country. IN New York labor, skilled and
unskilled. is we'll employed. The build
ing trades in that city are especially pros
porous, ard there are only few sporadic
strikes. In ST. Louis the situation is
better than in years. In Boston the only
serious break in the labor field is strike
of teamsters, which has been in progress
for month. In Philadelphia carpenters
and painters are after wage increase.
but most of the employers have already
conceded the demands. The machinists
in Pittsburg are on strike for increased
xxaoes-
