STRONG HOPE OF
FULL RECOVERY
INDICATIONS POINT TO CON-
PLETE RESTORATION OF IN
DUSTRIAL CONDITIONS.
Dun's Review for Week Shows Gain
in early Every Line Over Second
Month of 1908.

NEW YORK, March 13.-Already
the price establishments are beginning
to work toward the expected improve
ment in demand, and this and Presi-
orable to that measure of stability"
which is essential to the life and
growth of all business are important
contributions to financial and trade
confidence, and make stronger the hope
of full industrial recovery. In iron
and steel the notable development has
been an order for 101, 900 tons of steel
rails by trunk line. There are also
indications of some improvement in
copper. AS a result, largely of this
change, the confusion in the security
market has been checked, although
dullness still prevails. Outside of the
metals there has been little change.
The volume of business as mea sured
by bank clearings is large, for outside
of New York clearings make gain
this week of 1913 per cent over 1906.
Railroad earnings for three weeks of
February show gain of 13 per cent
as compared with the corresponding
period of 1908, and loss of 4.3 per
cent as compared with 1907. But the
trade situation is more or less de-
pressed by tariff and other uncertain
ties, though reports from most of the
centers are cheerful. II the textile
products buyers generally display q
disposition to wait for development be-
fore ordering freely. The snOe mar
llet is dull, and some factories have
reduced their staffs. The remarkable
strength in grain is maintained and a
new high level of prices has been at
tanned, the rise being based on small
supplies of cash wheat and a reported
less favorable foreign crop outlook
The feature of the foreign commerce
report for New York in the latest
week is the increase Of $1,479,939 in
imports over 1907, but as there was
loss of $3,006,336 in exports the total
trade was $1,526,39 under that of 1907
Both in sentiment and amount of
new business in sight the iron and
steel trade shows some gain. AS al
ready noted the placing of orders for
1000 tons of steel rails by a leading
railroad is an encouraging feature, and
Inquiries for structural shapes from
other sources indicate a disposition
to take advantage of the lower prices

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
NEW REALTY FIRM
Hover Schiffner Sell Business In This
City to Two Well Known Wal
la Wallans.

Roscoe M. Drumheller and Thomas
J. Ennis have entered the business
field in Walla Walla, a deal whereby
the young men took charge of the Ho>
Schiffner offices, having been
closed yesterday afternoon. The new
members of the firm, both of whom
are we'll known in this vicinity, will
assume immediate control of the local
offices, and by their energy and ability
will add much to the development Of
the valley, and will open a vigorous
advertising campaign. A new automo-
bile will be purchased for the accom-
mediation of patrons
The new company taxes over all
equities of the former company in
this vicinity, including many proper
ties which are either under option Or
partially paid for, and are assuming all
obligations now outstanding or con-
tracted by the former management
The new concern is also exclusive
agent in this city for the sale of lands
owned or for sale by the Richland
and Kennewick Land companies.
The Hover Schiffner company has
been for the past year and half one
of Walla Walla's most successful and
progressive real estate firms, many
large deals of both city and country
real estate have been contaminated
through their offices and by their real
progressiveness, many large plat
tings and new additions have been pun
on the market, Opportunity being one
Of their most widely advertised prop
critics in this part of the country.
On account of being heavily inter-
ested in other parts of the country Mr.
Hover and Mr. Schiffner will leave
Walla Walla as soon as minor affairs
can be settled up here. Both members
of the old firm will be located in Spo-
kane. Residents of the city and valley
especially those who have had business
dealings with them, express best
wishes for the future success of both
the old and the new.

In spite of the upward tendency of
raw material, buyers of cotton goods
make determined effort to secure a
lower level of quotations. There is an
entire absence of export demand from
China, although it is believed that
sellers will now accept prices that were
refused in January. Offers, have been
made by Red Sea buyers that may re-
suit In some business on $50 sheet
lngs. In the print cloth division of
the home market narrow goods remain
firm. but wide convertibles are being
sold only at concessions. Prints are
moving slowly, the demand being re-
stricted to filling-in requirements.
Trade in bleached goods is less active,
but the better classes of printed fab

cisiOn to curtail production in the yarn
trade is being watched with consider
able interest; at present the market
continues irregular, with no changes
in quotations.
After an early decline renewed
strength developed IN domestic grain
markets, and prices for leading GER
eals again established new high rec
crds for the season. Aggressive sup
port by leading interests was in evil
dence and a vigorous advance result

strength, and there We're also reports
Of less favorable outlook for crops in
some countries abroad. The rapid rise
in domestic wheat prices has checked
demand for export AMI little new bust
ness is noted Considerable interest is
felt in the official returns of farm re-
serves, which will appear on Monday
and the report is expected to confirm
the general belief in a heavy decrease.
Western receipts Of 3,22S,S3S bushels
Of wheat compared with 2,397,563 BUSH
els in the same week last year, and ex
ports from all ports of the United
States, flour included were $1,641 SS9
bushels against 2,923,149 in 1909 and
1,755,096 bushels two years ago. Re
ceipts of 5,506,319 bushels of corn
largely exceeded the ,751,325 bushels

PRESIDENT TAFT
WITHDRAWS POWER SITES

Washington. When President
Taft's attention was called to an ar
ticle in the May McClure's by Jud-
son C. Welliver on "The National
Waterpower Trust" he Immediately
announced through the secretary of
the interior that he would withdraw
later all waterpower sites not now
within national forests.
When Secretary Ballinger issued
the notice last Monday of the restora-
ton of several million acres Of land
which Roosevelt had withdrawn, con-
servation advocates were thrown into
CONSERVATION, fearing the new ad-
min!stration wouldn't uphold conser-
walton. He announced that he had in
structed the director of the geological
survey to survey all such lands with
a view of segregating them and that
congress would be asked to enact such
laws as would prevent the trusts from
absorbing power sites.
Conservationists rejoice greatly
over these developments. They be-
lieve the conservation movement will
be thereby rescued from what they
feared was complete Illustration.

GREAT ADVANCE IN

Wholesai,e Prices


Walla WaliS,-Wheat products have
increased in price from 400 to 400
per cent since September 25, 1905,
according to figures quoted today by
a local miiic-. He declares that even
with the present prices the millers
could make more money by shutting
down their mills and selling the wheat
they now have on hand by grinding
II into flour and selling !, though they
have in contemplation no such move,
as they desire to hold heir customers
which they have secured. Millers are
now running on wheat bought when
the price was down.
one local flour-maker explained the
present cost Of flour today to a Bulle-
tin reporter He said that straight
grade of flour made from bluestem
wheat at $1.25 a bushel could be sold
at wholesale at $3.50 a barrel, but
patent flour made from bluestem whet
at s1.25 a bushel should bring $3.50
barrel at wholesale.
lhe HlbHSI CpSl VI 'he PatSiN hpui'
he says, is caused by the low price Of
the clear flour. which is so per cent of
straight grade and is sold for Oriental
and California bakers trade. With the
average bluestem wheat testing 55 to
Sc bushels, ii takes about four and
two-thrds bushels to make a barrel
of flour, half of wheat is patent
flour and half clear -four. Figuring
on paying s1.25 bushel for blue
stem and selling flour at Sc barrel.
the miller declares it would be money
in his pocket to sell the wheat in
stead of the flour.
