RESUMP 7 ION OF
PROSPERITY \
PREDICTED
FEELING OF CONFIDENCE OVER
PROGRESS OF INDUSTRIES.
Evidences Of Business Improvement
Are Coming From Practically
All Directions.

New York, May 16.-A feeling of
confidence over the progress of bus
mess and industrial development pre-
vailed in the financial community last
week. That events were shaping
toward a resumption of prosperity was
the general conviction.
Evidences OF business improvement
came from practically all directions.
Special importance was attached TO
the advices from the metal trades
The April statistics OF the copper pro-
ducers' association showed that the
deliveries had taken care OF all bur
less than a million pounds of the
months production. while the rate Of
production was fully maintained over
that OF previous months with reports
OF continued heavy selling OF refined
copper promised a turn In the accu-
mutation of surplus stocks OF copper
which has been going on for months
and depressing the market and the
outlook for that metal,
II was significant OF the speculative
condition In the stock market that the
copper securities themselves sold of
on the publication of this encouraging
exhibit. owing to the large buying OF
those stocks which had been done In
anticipation OF this showing and ac-
companied more over by exaggerated
reports of the improvement to DC
shown.
Influences from abroad were favor
able, the London market taking en-
couragement from the large applica-
tions for the London county council
loans and embarklng on an animated
speculation in Kafflr mining stocks.
The restricted scope or the strike OF
French government employees and the
| evidence of control of the situation by
/ the authorities quieted an anxiety that
more sinister events might grow out
of that disturbance.
The stock market OF the week was
animated and made occasional shows

The coalers supplied the sensation

the most OF its semblance OF buoy.

CONGRESSIONAL FORE
CAST FOR THE WEEK

Washington. May 16.-Beginning
tomorrow the daily sitt1ngs OF the
senate Will commence at 10 o'clock in
the morning. The hour has been ad-
vanced In the hope of expediting final
action on the tariff bill by more rap
idly disposing of the long speeches
as well as the detailed discussion OF
the various risputed schedules.
The consideration OF the measure
has developed great opposition on the
part of more Republican senators
than was expected and the supporters
of the bill feel that every eGort must
be made TO bring the bill to a vote
So far, however. they have received
no encouragement from the in
surgents," and the Republican leaders
are quite in the dark as TO when the
end may be reached They are find
ing less difficulty in dealing with the
Democrats than the Independent Re
publicans, and the opinion is freely ex-
pressed that but for this antagonism
day might soon be set which would
decide the fate OF the measure. The
discussion will deal with the various
paragraphs, but there will be few
speeches on the tariff question, in
cluding one by Senator Depew, which
probably will he delivered tomorrow.
Senator Clay Will deliver, probably on
Tuesday. an elaborate speech cirticis-
ing the sugar schedule and undertake
ing to show that ii Is in the interest
of the sugar combination The razor
schedule Will receive first attention
tomorrow. and Senator Simmons Will
continue his effort to have the rate
lowered.
Senator Bailey will continue TO
press his demand for a vote on the
income tax as feature of the tariff
bill. but 1t is an open secret that he
is not now nearly so confident of
success as he was in the beginning
OF the session. He has confided TO
some of his friends his conviction that
some OF the advocates of such tax
have been picked off, by the enemy
The general opinion among the sup
porters of the income tax policy is
that the cause I'm the senate has been
materially weakened by the decision

BIG SCOOP WHEEL USED FOR IR
RIGATING PURPOSES.

A giant steel scoop wheel, used for
irrigation purposes in Arizona. is des-
cribed. The wheel is six feet wide by
26 feet in diameter. Its buckets have
no flare, and really should be termed
paddles, for they merely push the
water up the convex slope of the solid
concrete pit within which the wheel
is operated. The lift is ordinarily
about six feet, and to this height the
wheel is capable of readily handling
enough water to irrigate 10000 acres
OF land. The power for operating the
wheel is supplied by two so horse
power gasoline engines.
