tinues, some of the abandoned
mines OF a few years are now be-
ing worked pro6tabiy. Deducting
the amount of the metal used in
the arts and industries, more than
S300,000,0J0 of gold each year is
now being added to tho worlds
stock of com. Here is one Of the
'easons why prices of all commod-

the recent trade stegnation. All
the. worlds financial centers are
we'll supplied with cssh. Even the
treasury at Washington reveals
within the past week or two the
effects Of the trade revival. The
revised figures for March show
that the deficit for that m onth was
only So, lis 900, instead of the s4,-
100000 which had been estimated
on the last day Of the month, and
instead Of the 100000 or IS, ,OO0-
100000 which had been predicted
seven or eight " eeks earlier. Thus
the cheerful tone of the railway
chiefs, the steel magnates and the
other captains of industry is COM
municated to the treasury officials
All along the line the industrial
aud financial situation is better
than had been looked for by this
thine by even the most sanguine.
The treasury deficit for the year
will probably pass the slOO,OO0,O0O
mark, but it will stop far short of
the giddy height which everybody
few months ago feared it would
reach.

fulness which is going up from

TRADES ERA OF GOOD FEELING

Simultaneously comes the news
OF the Hartman Hill gentlemen's
agreement, the placing of heavy
orders abroad for American steel,
and the general advances in the
stock market. This is welcome
relief from the gloomy talk which
was heard a week or ten days ago,
on account of the assumed disturb
ance which tariff revision would
cause. Says the younger Hill, the
new president of the Great North
erD, There is 10 fight between the
Hill and Hartman forces. There
has been none between them since
1901, although the public imagined
there was. The feeling between
them now is better than it ever
was in the past" Coming from the
tlead Of one of the rival interests,
this assurance is pleasing reading
to the country. Ia different words
Mr.. Hartman confirms this story
OF a peace pact. The seat of war
between these forces, if there we're
any war, would be in the North
west chiefly, and more railroad
building is being done in the
Northwest at this moment than in
any other section of the country.
This means that the men who are
putting up the money there not
ouly see peace, but they see pros
pect OF heavy traffic in the imme-
diate future.

Sch wab and the rest of the steel
magnates have as good a cause for
rejoicing as the heads of the rival
tIarsror alton interests in the
trans Mississippi region are show
ing. To MIR. Schwab's company
has just come heavy order for
battle ship, for Argentina. An
ether American concern has Sc
cured a contract for rails and fish
plates for the street railway sys-
tenn OF Glasgow. These American
companies made lower bids than
their foreign rivals, and thus got
the work. Scotch steel makers
were beaten on their own ground.
Germany which Is making greater
strides forward in steel produc.
ton than England, was the chief
competitor for the Argentina con-
tract, but it was, according to re-
port, "beaten out Of sight by
Schwab's company" The Ameri-
can people like these evidences of
American kill and efficiency.

The latest trial Of Mr. Brennan's

bilities il suggests. really proved little
more than did the tests made two years
ago. At that time he used n small model.
In his recent exhibition lie had car
large enough for actual service.
Enough was previously known about
the device which he employs TO keep
car upright i'm defiance of gravitatiCn to
leave little doubt that within certain
limitations it could he trusted to do what
he expected. Flywheels have been used
in self-propelled- torpedoes TO correct any
deviation from the course on which they
were originally aimed Hence il was
evident that the same principle could he

titude il previously occupied IL any tilt

forded by the two demonstrations given
thus far is that a ear in which a gyro-
scope has been employed Cor that pur-
pose will stick 10 the track on curves. II
might have been expected that the ten
dency TO adhere 10 n straight path shown
by torpedo would cause a ear to leave
the rails. Such. however is apparently
not the case
Still. remarkable as are the results Sc
cured by Mr.. Brennan through q new
application of an old principle. he has
not yet fully established the feasibility
of his plan. Nothing but a prolonged
trial will be convincing. He has fore
seen one possibility of failure. If h,s

answer 10 that question is 10 be OBJ

which Punch" portrayed as Nose I'm

nearly one-half of the shares in the
Suez Canal. has more important an
nOuncement been made concerning that
great waterway than the news Of the
extension of the canal concession and
the establishment Of new terms between
the canal company ana the Egyptian

ninety-nine years, or 20 the end ~ 1915
al which date il was 10 revert To the
Egyptian government and until which
time that government was 20 have no

the best bargain which tie Khedivial
