PROSPERITY STILL DELAYS.
Net curtaiIment of Output, With Mers
 Reductions of Wages.

| '
 New York. April IS. R. c. Dun q | Co.'S weekly review of trade says: Easter trade and generally favorable
 weather accelerated retail distribution of merchandise, but there is no evil dence of increased activity in prepara- ton for future business, nor are manu- lecturers disposed to operate more ex- tensively. In fact. some net curtail- ment of output is noted. and more re- ductions in wages have occurred, par ticularly at textile plants.
 Prices of commodities are lower at the leading exchanges dealing in farm sta pies in response to encouraging crop reports. and transactions were reduced by the holidays. There is an increased demand for farm hands, and some dis puted wage scales were signed, but lit- tie change can be discerned in the to- tai number of unemployed. Postponed structural work is started very slowly, although the money market is so easy that gold is being exported in the face of an exceptionally heavy favorable balance on merchandise account
 Exports in March exceeded imports by over $52o00,0o0, and for the last week at this port alone exports de- clined $2.9s3,638 in comparison with the same week last year, while imports fell off $6,955,447
 Railway earnings in the first week of April were IA per cent less than year ago, reports of freight movement being Irregular. as is the case with all com mercial news, some northwestern and southwestern centers reporting much better conditions than other sections of the country. Prices of securities are little changed for the week, recent ad- vances being maintained despite a very small volume of business, to which may be attributed part of the 1922 per cent decrease in bank ex. changes at New York as compared with the same week last year. At oth. CT leading cities the loss was 135 per cent
 Commercial failures for the week were 262 against 2sS last week, 267 ths preceding week and 1S6 the correspond. ing week last year.

 tcrieaI, In Pamphlet.

tcriea, In Pamphlet. Albany, N. r., April 1S.-Stats ofis cers and legislators were flooded with | pamphlets ridiculing Governor Hughes as the states chief executive and as a candidate for president He is dubbed Marcus Aurelius IT., and Messrs Woodford. Low, Hazard and Butler, delegates at large to the Chicago con- yention, are described as "a four fiush'
 The pamphlet reads in part:
 Marcus Aurelius II.-Where hs stands, there is the moral center of the state of New York.
 He is as pious as Marcus Aurelius and as modest as Benvenuto Cellin
 Intellectually he is as cold as chisel. His one friend is his shadow, and he would feed ice water to starv- ing man.
 Socially he is as soothing as desert.
 His one chant is his duty. which is always 10 himself He has built n fence around rectitude and claims 1t as his own.
 He has an excess of specific gravity and is known as the Polonius of re- form.
 He is an habitual preacher. an occa- sional reformer. He regards his feeble voice as the trumpet of wisdom and believes 1t is his mission to warn man kind that he enrobes all the virtues. He is in constant touch with himself and his destiny. He is a preacher among preachers.
 He is the greatest unconstitutional lawyer in the state. In his profession he is monk. In his practice he does piece work for corporations and in- quisitorial work for the people-for pay"
 Assemblyman Merritt. Hughes floor leader. denounced the pamphlet as an insult and declared that the governor was doing his best to play clese ts the people"
