BRITISH AGENT REPORTS
AMERICA AS PROSPEROUS
Says Country So Rich in Aaricui-
turaI Products Is Not Likely to
Experience Financial
stagnatlon
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, June 2-The cloud of un-
certainty which has been hanging over the
business element OF the United States Is In
the opinion of the British commercial agent
to parliament on this subject Seymour Bell,
the British commercial agent In the United
States, says:
''As to the 'ength of time the present de-
preston will last, II is difficult to form an
opinion. 1t must not be forgotten that the
farmers who form the backbone of Amer
lean prosperity, have not been affected by
the financial situation. Though the crops
in 1907 fell short in quantity as compared
with 1906, higher prices were obtained and
the farmers received considerably more
money for their crops than In the previous
year A country that produces crops valued
at nearly f1,600, 900, 900 is unlikely to suffer
long from industrial stagnation. 1t repre-
sents too large amount to be held long
uninvested. Farmers have had nine years
of almost uninterrupted prosperity, their
buying power is high. and the towns de-
pendent upon them will remain prosperous.
THE farmers who a few years ago owed
money now own money and have an assured
outlet for their products, there is no
oversupply.
1.-THE cloud of uncertainty, which has been
hanging over the country for SO long ana
gradually growing more threatening, Is now
passing away, and II may be said that the
worst of the storm has now passed. There
will in all probability be mercantile disturb
ances for some months to come. but read
justment and recuperation are well under
way, and unless labor troubles should re-
tard the Improvement or monopolies of capi-
tai interferea to keep up prices at too high
a level, 1t Is expected that before many
months have passed business will be on a
safer and more normal basis"

be brought under cultivation.
The annual picnic of the United

The money has arrived for the pay

KINNEY WANTS 800 FEET
OF TIDElAND FRONTAGE

Special to The Herald.
SANTA MONICA, June 2.-There is
much speculation over an application
made to the Santa Monica city council
by the Abbot Kinney company for a
franchise to do certain building at
Ocean Front and Kinney street. The
latter is the next street north of and
parallel to Pier avenue. The petition
was referred to the city attorney.
There are many rumors and an impress
sion has got abroad that Mr.. Kinney
means to invade what has been always
regarded as the preserve of Messrs.
Fraser, Jones and Gates, proprietors of
the Horseshoe pier and pavilion, and
parallel their pier, which is not now en-
tirely satisfactory to some of the pub
lie, particularly fishermen, because it is
not long enough and does not reach
deep water. A correspondent of The
Herald tonight asked Mr.. Kinney about
his project.
There is nothing to say about what
we shall do" he said, until we are
ready TO do it, and we cannot be ready
to do it until we get a franchise. The
city council of Santa Monica appears
to be inclined to hold up the applica-
ton. What we want is access to 800
feet of tide water. When Santa Monica
is ready to act then we shall do
things"

COTTON, June 2.-The city trustees

MAY ESTABLISH TRADE
WITH HAWAIIAN ISLANDS
Santa Fe Tie Contract May Result In
Directing Vast Export Trade to
Southern California
Ports

A recent contract placed in the Hawaiian
islands for ties by the Santa Fe company
has occasioned the advancement of a propo-
sition to procure for Southern California a
part of the export trade with those islands
which is now being handled exclusively
through San Francisco.
The contract calls for 100000 ties. tosbe
delivered during the next five years. The
ships bringing these ties to Southern Cali
fornia ports would have to return without
cargo, by reason that there is no trade now
being carried through Southern California
ports with the Hawaiian islands.
It Is now proposed to overcome this difi-
Guilty and additional expense by loading
these ships with products of Southern Cali
fornia and with this opening gradually win
much of the export trade now being handled
through San Francisco.
1t is also said that the Santa Fe expects
to establish a tourist line from Chicago to
the Hawaiian islands by way of Los An
geles and Redondo.
