Inpowing of Visitors Continues
Little indication of Hard Times.

Catskiu, n. Y, July 1.-THE long hot wave was
not only endurable in the mountains. but comforta-
bIe at least in all the higher resorts The air was
dry and always tempered by light breeze. HUI
midity rarely visits the Catskills.
The inpouring OF visitors which began last week
has continued ard there is indication of bust
depression and hard times in this brilliant
opening of the mountain season. Another preva-

likely to prove poor season for summer resorts
because OF the unsettled of business affairs,
appears to be unfounded. Boats and trains come
up loaded daily, and the June traffic reports show
big increase over that of last year, which was
phenomenally large The heat favored the river
