REVIVAL IN NEW ENGLAND.
Business Inactivity Gives Way With a
Rush--The Boom in Connecticut.

Boston, Nov. 9.--The business inactiv-
ity which marked the prediction period
has given way with a rush in New Eng
land, announcements Of a resumption Of
operations having been made in all direc-
tions within the past three days. Many
industrial interests are affected, although
the reports indicate that the textile con-
Germs have acted more promptly and in
greater numbers in ordering longer hours
and more operatives. Other lines which
already have arranged for increased ope-
rations are iewelry and rubber factories,
thread, yarns and knitting mills, machine
and tool making plants and railroad re-
pair shops.
A revival of industrial activity in the
country viii be felt in Connecticut in
nearly every branch of trade and more
along the Naugatuck valley,
which is the center Of brass and copper
goods making The increase in orders
to electrical equipment concerns will i'm
be followed by active resump-
tion on full time Of many plants in Wa
terbury and Bridgeport, which turn out
fittings of copper used in electrical ma
ehinery. In all the metal trades busy
winter is expected, interviews with man
ufacturers at Waterbury indicating that
inquiries for estimates on contracts have
begun. The Naupatuck valley was hit
hard by the industrial depression, for
more than 25000 highly skilled workers
in copper and brass have been on partial
time for months. The industries Of this
settled valley furnish some
thing in tho metal line to every corner
Of the United States. The hardware
and silverware concerns arc preparing
for good season. Heavy machinery
makers think the improvement will reach
them late in the winter.

The Steel Trade Shows New
Life
OWING TO LARGE ORDERS
Many New England Mills Go Back to
Full Time Schedule-In the Central
West and South Increased
Demand Is Noted.

New York, Nov. o.-To learn to what
extent the reported resumption Of bust
ness has progressed, The World in
tructed its correspondents in the chief
industrial centres of the country to re-
port the actual facts, especially as re-
lating to the increased number OF men
put to work.
The replies indicate that with the
completion OF the large harvests
throughout the country there has been
steady increase in business and that
constantly enlarging employment Of
labor is under way.
In the steel and iron industry usual
~ regarded as the barometer of trade,
there has been n considerable improve.
ment. This was based first, ON the
large orders given by the railroads for
construction and equipment. 1t has re-
suited in the opening or increased ac.
the employment of large number OF
men.
In the manufacturing centres of New
England an increased number Of mills
in the cotton and wooden industries are
at work on full time. Here also an in
crease in the working force is noted.
Similar improvement in industry in
the Middle West and further 20 the
Rockies. On the Pacific Coast an inn
petus TO business has been given by the
great railroads pushing the construction
Of new lines and kindred enterprises.
The South and Southwest are xe-
ceedingly confident. In Texas the big
railroad systems have reopened their
shops under full time schedule. Orders
have been contracted in Texas alone for
$4,000 new freight cars. Lumbermen
are opening their mills and projecting
new ones.
Increased orders for railway equip
mfnt were on of the first Indications
of turn in the tide. An enlargement
of the demand for copper, resulting in
a continued advance in the price of this
metal, followed.
A month or so ago a raise in the
selling price of certain fabrics marked
better outlook for the dry goods
trade, and with the advent Of cold
weather retailers note an increase in
business.
The National association Of Manufac-
turers, through its magazine American
Industries. has prosecuted an inquiry |
as to the improvement in busienss, and |
has secured some definite information, /
which il regards as valuable.
A majority of replies received indi-
cate that an average of 1875 men will be |
added to the majority of manufacutr.
ing plants in the association by Dec. I
/. The reports further show that at
least one.half Of the 5000 members of
the National association of Manufac-
turers expect to add to their present
force more than 100000 workingmen
Taking this as basis, American In
dustries assumes that the 10000 manu-
fdcturers which, according to the census
Of 1900, employed an average each of
100 men or over, will add at least 60
per cent. to their present force, making
4 total in round figures of $4,000 men.
In other words, with the continuance
Of business confidence, the important
interests of this coun
try will be enabled to increase their
present force by more than half mil
ion laboring men, in order to meet the
market demands for their products,
