TRADE SHOWS
IMPROVEMENT

New York May 7.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say:
With bank clearings outside New
York 15.9 per cent better than in 1906,
and in New York PAL per cent better
than in 1908. and 13 per cent larger
than in 1905; with railroad earnings
for the month of April showing a gain
of 1879 per cent over 1908, and only
1913 per cent decrease, as compared
with the banner year of 1907; with
immigration $4,000 larger than last
year; with imports much greater than
in 1908 and nearly equal to 1907: with
a distinct gain in the iron and steel
trade in both orders and prices; with
a hardening tendency in copper with
works of new construction going for
ward rapidly, the trade situation
seems to afford ample grounds for the
prevailing belief that as soon as tariff
revision is out of the way the last OBJ
stacle to a full restoration of normal
industrial and mercantile activity will
be removed.
Notable indeed is the better feel
ing in iron and steel. Favorable de-
velopments in nearly all divisions are
reported. Recovery is naturally slow
following the prolonged period of de-
preston. but there is more than a sug-
gestion of permanence in the steady re-
vival, and the broadened demand has
not been curtailed by some slight ad-
vances in price"

FIERCE FIGHT ON
IN LAPORTE COUNTY
County Option War in the
Neighboring Locality Is
a Warm One.

Michigan City. Ind. May 8.-There is
a different angle to the county option
fight in Laporte county than was found
In the elections that have taken place.
The fight is about as fierce as that Of
Cass and Blackboard counties and no
one can tell at this time what the re-
suit will be.
There are in the county 116 saloons.
OF these, 20 are in Michigan City, with
a population of $4,000; % are in the
city of Laporte. with a population of
about $4,000 people; Z are in the little
town of Wanatah, and the others are
scattered throughout the county. In
the city of Laporte and the town Of
Wanatah there is some pretense toward
obeying the law. In Michigan City
there is little la wobedience. The sa-
looms do not close on Sunday the legal
hours for shutting up are not observed,
and it is common report that any one
old enough to shove q nickel across the
bar can get a drink of beer.
Many Brewery Saloons.
There are a large number of brew
cry saloons In both Michigan City and
Laporte, and if the brewers make any
effort to have their saloons comply
with the law there is no evidence OF
/ that fact Family entrance" with a

Michigan City three breweries are rep
resented by saloons. The News, the
