BUSINESS IS
NOW IMPROVING
TRADEsMARs WEEKLY REVIEW
SHOWS CONDITIONS ARE BET
TER IN ALL LINES OF TRADE.

In its weekly review Of Southern
market conditions the Tradesman
says: Fifteen dollars per ton No. 2
foundry, is the level now in the
Southern territory and pig iron man
ufacturers are already discriminating
in accepting business for delivery
during the coming year, that is limit
ing the amount Of iron being sold.
There Is a strong expectation that
prices are soon to take on another
advance and mention has been made
OF probability OF a runaway market,
as much as the iron makers express
themselves against such a condition.
Some immediate delivery iron is SELL
ing still In this territory but not to
any great extent The next years
buying has not started in as yet in
full force but the aggregate will soon
become noticeable. With iron at SIS
per ton and strong inquiry for the
product, the Southern iron market
can be announced as in f1nescondition.
There Is q great amount Of iron being
delivered in the South still at the low
prices that prevailed several weeks
ago, around the S11 and Si1.50 figures.
The furnace companies well supplied
with this business are doing every
thing in their power to finish On the
orders so that the better price iron
can be handled.
There Is no denial OF the fact that
the Southern territory is either ship
ping out or melting more iron than is
being manufactured. The stocks OF
iron on hand belonging to the pro-
ducers grow less every week, in fact
the accumulated stocks at present
being at almost minimum quantity,
so far as that owned by the iron com
panies goes. There is TO be gen.
eral moving out Of iron on the yards
here shortly and by the end Of the
year there win be plenty OF room
around the furnaces.
The inquiries that are being re-
ceived by the furnace companies in
the Southern territory would indicate
that there is TO be a long run Of pros
perity. Inquiries are being received
for iron to be delivered during the
first half OF the coming year. One or
two furnaces only are willing, so II is
learned, 10 discuss business beyond
the first quarter and one OF the
larger concerns In the South, a COM
pany with six furnaces making iron
and all the product handled on the
open market, is limiting the amount
OF iron to be sold to q customer for
delivery during the first quarter Of
the coming year. This condition has
not been noted now in three years.

small scale. The mills continue the
hand to mouth basis, and many manu-
facturers are predicting the necessity
of curtailment or closing down OF
plants unless prices of manufactured
goods shortly increase more in the
proportion to the increase in raw ma
terial. Mills that had bought their
cotton ahead are profiting by the
slight advance in prices, but those
that are forced to buy now are In bad
shape.
Outside of picking up spot yarns,
knitters are not inclined to operate
extensively. WeaVers are buying very
little and are getting what they need
ct the lowest prices possible.
Meanwhile, Notwithstanding the
fact that there is only slight improve
ment in the markets, capitalists con-
tinue to invest freely in new mill
properties. During the past week
number OF large cotton mills have
been organized, and others are being
talked in various parts of the South,
Numerous plants are also busily en-
gagged making additions and improve
ments, Installing new machinery and
otherwise enlaTging their facilities for
handling the business which they con
fidently expect.
Lumber and Hardware.
The Tradesman's analysis Of the
lumber and hardware markets con-
tains the following comments: Heavy
orders from railroads and car manu-
facturers is perhaps the chief feature
Of the lumber trade Of the South this
week and the indications are that
these buyers will continue actively
in the market for some time. Rail
roads are doing much repair work ana
many that operate their own shops
are building cars as fast as the labor
can be assembled. This has brought
much activity in the pine belt and
put practically all the mills to work
ing full time. The general movement
of pine is also good this month, man
ufacturing centers and country trade
being excellent. In the hardwood
sections the demand continues good
with a much better demand from
manufacturing consumers Prices are
advancing on the better grades and
rare dimensions but low and common
grades show little inclination TO ad-
vance. All mills are operating on full
time where logs can be procured and
the movement, rail and water, is IN
usually heavy.
All branches Of the hardware trade
continue to hold up exceedingly we'll

fully as brisk as September closed.

Statesmanship and Sport.

Yesterday was a 'double-header' bar
gain day at the ball park. 1t was the
first of these occasions for the season.
and every true dyed-in-thewool base ball
rooter felt under solemn obligation to at
tend, to testify to his loyalty to hard
luck team and incidentally to take advan-
tage of the unusual measure of value for
a single ticket of admission. 1t is one of
the prerogatives of members of Congress
to attend the ball games here in Wash
ington. They rarely have the opportunity
to see the local team in full stride of VIC
tory. for they ordinarily get away from
town during long-session years before the
pitchers have warmed up and the fielders
have found their batting eye. This year
they have the exceptional opportunity of
watching the team In process of shaking
off the hoodoo in the course of tariff de-
bate which. as everybody knows, is never
to be rated as quite important as a
good game, and on double-header days is
the veriest waste of time. So it is not to

The Fireman Hero.

Monday morning when one of the
local engine companies responded to an
alarm of fire it was found that a dwell
ing house was in flames. Before the hose
cart, the first to reach the scene, came to a
standstill, Private Frank Hellmuth leaped
to the ground and ran into the building.
In consequence of his unhesitating brav-
cry in venturing into the house four peo-
pie were safely brought out of danger.
Private Hellmuth deserves and will doubt
less receive the praise of his superiors
and will perhaps in time gain promotion
in consequence of his heroic act 1t is,
however, in no wise lessening of his
record to suggest that in what he did he
merely obeyed the law of the service in
which he is engaged. Indeed, it is true
of the local fire department as it is of
other organizations of the same kind that
the men employed in 1t never hesitate
about venturing into dangerous places in
order to save life. 1t is instructive with

Matrimony and the Sons of Mars.

\ few wears ago Gen. Corbin expressed
the opinion that matrimony was not the
ideal state OF the army officer and that
the bachelor soldier was apt to be hap
pier and of more use to the government
than a man who assumed family respon-
sibilities in conjunction with his shoulder
straps This doctrine, however, was not
put into the form of an official order,
prohibiting or discouraging matrimony
in the army. so that officers have since
been left to their individual judgment In
this matter The midshipmen in the navy
are not SO fortunate. Secretary Meyer
has issued an order which was approved
by the President forbidding embryo naval
officers from marrying until they have
completed their full six years of prelimi-
nary service. Heretofore it has been
quite common for the naval cadet to step
almost directly from the graduating plat
form To the altar. Commencement week
al Annapolis was always a sort of hy-
meneal curtain raiser, and many a bride
was taken by youngsters who had still

official status was fully established. Ac-
cording to the terms of the new order

Celebrating the Fourth.
From the Tacoma Ledger.

Washington city set a good example to
the nation last year by making the
Fourth of July patriotic celebration and
not just a day Of noise and nonsense. The
people Of the city approved of the change
and this year the celebration will be
along similar lines. Representatives of
the Chamber of Commerce and CONNER
cial club of Washington city have taken
the lead in the matter and popular
fund of s.. 800 Is being raised. A safe
and sane Fourth" such will be OBJ
served in Washington city. does not mean
a Fourth without fireworks. Fireworks
will be enjoyed in abundance. but under
regulations for safety. The plan is to
gather together the money that would be
expended throughout the city for fire
works and expend it in a united celebra-
ton. In this way much finer effects are
feasible and the loss of fingers. eyes and
even lives is minimiZed The fireworks
will be at night. the patriotic exercises
in the daytime.

few So that persons with time on their
hands Of evenings are easily attracted
to brilliant show. And either house or
Congress in action under blazing roof
makes a brave spectacle.
What the leaders of the Senate have
in mind is a cessation of talk. They
want a vote on the tariff bill. But, as
has been demonstrated thousand times,
crowded galleries make for talk. Sena-
tors and representatives alike yield to
the inspiration Of such scene. Fill the
house with men and women seeking en-
tertainment and statesmen with thoughts
to utter prepare to utter them now, and
at length Everything leads to a speech.

The Local Alley Problem.

BY means of his plain talk on the sub
ject of city congestion and the local evlis
and needs. before the members of the
House and Senate District committee
yesterday, Mr.. Marsh. executive secretary
of the New York committee on conges-
ton, rendered a valuable public service
for which he is entitled TO the gratitude
of the people of Washington. 1t is not
necessary to agree with him that the rem
edies to be adopted to meet these conditions
include changes in the taxation processes
The chief point at present to be borne
in mind is that the Washington slums,
consisting almost exclusively of densely
crowded alleys, are dangerous to health
and the moral welfare of the city. 1t
is vitally important that this fact be
impressed so deeply upon Congress that
the problem will be attacked earnestly
in a spirit of corrective legislation al
the next session.
Whatever is done should aim at the
elimination of the alley slum and the
substitution of decent dwellings under
sanitary conditions and In circumstances
to permit effective policing. The pri-
mary aim should be to develop the self-re-
spect of the poorer classes by first plac-
ing within their reach wholesome dwell
ings and then insisting upon their main
tenance of sanitary standard of living.
This will be a long and difficult task,
but nothing will ever be accomplished to-
ward the end of curing these local evils
as long as nothing is undertaken.
The alley problem is to be regarded
not from the point of view solely of the
dweller within the byway, who is pri-
marily suffering from the evils of his
environment, but from that of the entire
community, which is affected by all the
conditions locally existent. Washington
cannot help being injured physically and
morally by the presence of these densely
crowded centers of population out
of the reach of the sanitary laws. This
movement. will be most successfully car
ried through if it is undertaken for the
sake of all the people of the District
rather than for that of those alone who
are at present forced to live in the al
leys for the lack of more decent ac-
commodations.
