HENRY oIEws' WEEKLY LETTER

New York, March 15.-(Special.)
MANY of those who usually take
the initiative in Wall street are
either absent or holding aloof await
ing new developments. The new adj
ministration has already settled down
to business, and there Is general
feeling that there will be a cessation
of the disturbing methods towards
great corporations which have been
so prominent for some time past. This
Standard Oil and the Missouri rate
decisions. although they had no great
EFFECT upon the market, served to
confidence. IL is. believed
that now the harmful consequences
|of radical and extrer3 agitation
against large corporations are fully
seen, that a more temperate policy
viii be adopted In dealing with such
Important matters. This does not
mean that there should be the slight
est leniency shown in the enforce
ment OF law against the large con-
Germs, but that demagogic attacks
should cease, and that the attempts
at confiscatory legislation will be
fewer and far between. In other
words, the hope seems Justified that
we are about to enter a period OF
more rational treatment of the great
economic and financial problems of
the day.
Another matter upon which opin-
ion has been largely conferred Is the
tariff. II can now be taken foi
granted that no radical changes will
be enforced. The tariff, IL might as
well be admitted, is in the hands OF
its friends; and while more or less
time and temper may be expended
before agreement is reached, the best
information confirms the belief thai
the coming changes will be compare
lively slight. Strong pressure Is be
ing brought to bear to prevent a
break in party lines, which would
surely follow any radical cuts. while
the necessity OF the government for
Increased revenues affords the stand
Ipatters strong argument against any
reductions in actual revenue. There
/ Is every prospect OF a sharp conflict
over details; but manufacturing in

Notwithstanding his desire for re-
form, and shares with the house
wish to create as little disturbance
in business as possible by securing
prompt and moderate action. It Is
probable, therefore, that the tariff
has been fully discounted as a de-
pressing factor so far as Wall street
is concerned. General business, how
ever, is still restrained by indeeision,

TO HEALTH BY vINoI

about two years ago my wife was
in very poor health. She had no APP
petite, was much reduced in flesh,
and for three months had a very bad
cough, with all the symptoms of con-
sumption Vinol was recommended
and she began taking it; before the
first bottle was used her appetite was
better, and she was improving in
health: by the time she had taken
three bottles the cough was gone.
She Is still taking Vinol and cannot
say too much in it's praise."-N L..

The reason that Vinol Is so sue

be shown that it is for their interest

No great fluctuations in the stock
market need be expected until a
positive change takes place in out
side conditions. Investment demand
for bonds has shown a sudden cessa

the inquiry has been temporarily sat

growing impression that after several

Some one said to me recently, why
don't YOU cut out those contests and
give the readers Of your page some
Thing new?''
I was really doubtful just what TO do.
In a letter from a puzzler every once
in a while would be a request for more
contests, and then last week, when
there was such a deluge of answers, ]
had about made ND my mind that the
majority OF readers cared for the con-
tests and by the number of answers that
have come in this morning am con-
WINGED that the contests should be run
for long time IN the future. What say
you Duzzlers?
I have received a number OF clever
original contests from the puzzlers and
I think they will prove as pleasing as
the ones in the past
After a hurried glance over the morn
ing mail I find the puzzlers like the
contest for this week. One puZzler said
that Il has made her think harder than
she has in 8 long time and that she has
discovered the names OF some English
poets and authors that she never knew
before. She said that before she could
solve scarcely any Of them she had tc
look up a book containing the lives 81
famous English writer's and then she
found the contest a "cinch."
