BALTIMORE. Md. May 19.-Pur-
suant to an arrangement previously
made General Superintendent of Mo-
tive Power Harris, of the b. & o..
met committee of fourteen machin-
lists employed at the various shops ON
the system outside of Baltimore. They
presented the request that the men
who left the service at Mount
Clare shops in this city on the 7th,
be reinstated without prejudice and
that any one who had lef. since that
date be also reinstated and those
men who have been employed to fill
the places Of the men who left be dis
missed.
II was explained to the committee
that this request could not be COM
piled with as in engaging new men
the company had naturally obligated
itself to provide them with regular
employment. and also to take care
of the employees who remained in the
service. The committee then called
mt Vice President Potter's office and
presented the same request and asked
for conference. MIR. Potter is abb
sent from the city attending the an

mittee of the American Railway Asso-
citation in New York but is expected
home on Thursday or Friday at which
time he will give the machinists' COM

Two reasons: The poor equip

for maintaining the institute.

The need is a modern andthor-
oughly equipped main school
building and two dormltories.
The total estimated cost of
these buildings is approximately s45.-

The Country's Crops.

Too little Significance has been at
tached to the farmer and his pro-
ducts. Even those who reside on
farms in many instances give too lit
tie attention to actual farming and
fail 10 realize the great factor agri-
culture is in the prosperity OF the
nation and the general business con-
ditions of the country.
While well known eastern bank.
ing house is sizing up the business
conditions and the outlook, it shows
that there is reason to see bright
future in most lines OF activity and
in most instances there is already q
glow that brings qualification, but at
the same time 1t shows that the crop
condition is not as satisfactory as
the country needs to restore 1T to
full prosperity. However, it ex-
presses the belief that where wheat
has failed. corn will save the day.
Its comments on the crop conditions
In connection with the general situa-
ton are: as follows:
OF all the elements in the situa-
ton, the crop outlook is perhaps the
least satisfactory. the reduced acre
age of winter wheat and oats being
in the main responsible. 1t Is pre-
mature, however, to take pes
simistic attitude regarding wheat,
since much OF the loss in winter can
be made by the increased acreage
of spring wheat and favorable
weather conditions during the bal
ance of the season. Much of the
acreage lost to wheat will be planted
in corn. which for the last
few years has been a very profit
able crop. The outlook now is for a
big corn crop, and this would prac-
tically Offset any loss in wheat. Corn
not only furnishes large amount of
freight to the railroads, but is trans
formed into pork and other pro-
ducts, and is most important and
staple of crops. Last year we raised
1850, 100000 bushels of corn valu-
ed at s1.61G, 100000 whereas the
wheat crop, amounting to 665,O0O,-
600 bushels was valued at only
s617,OOO,O 900. Our cotton crop was
valued at s70o,oOO.oo0. and hay at
s6S5,OOO,OOO; SO that the supreme
cy of corn is far beyond question.
Should the country be favored with
another big corn crop, which the
prospective general increase in acre
age suggests. we may feel reasonably
sure of another year of agricultural
prosperity. the Importance of which
can be heartily oyerestimated.

The Henry Clews letter at the end
OF the week was even of brighter
tone. more hopeful and more posi-
tive in resume and forecast than the
previous weeks end letter. which
told OF better things financially and
industrially. The letter rings with
the tone Of confidence and in part 1t
Is as follows:
There are few. If any. clouds on
the financial horizon. The outlook
continues satisfactory, and the spirit
Of optimism having extended itself
into the commercial and Industrial
field, nearly all the leading Industries
are happily feeling the impulses of
recovery under the stimulus of
lower prices and cheap money. The
iron trade was the first to respond
to these conditions, and is at present
i showing considerable activity, the
volume of orders for structural,
railroad and agricultural imple-
ment work being very large. vari-
GUS other metal markets are also
rejecting these improved conditions.
while the electric and rubber indus
tries are showing symptoms of re-
vival. The textile trades. also,
though undergoing the customary
quietness at this period. are in rel
atively healthy condition, while raw
materials generally as we'll as partial
ly fabricated materials, are in
much better demand from manufac-
turers. Another noticeable feature is
the continued large importations of
raw materials. partly in anticipation
1t is true. of tariff changes, but still
very largely in expectation OF larger
consumptive requirements. One
more very striking Indication of
business recovery is that bank clear
ings in the United States during the
first four months of the current year
amounted to s51, 900, 100000, an
increase of 80 per cent over the
same period last year. Allowing for
the fact that considerable of this in
crease was due to higher prices and
greater activity on the stock ex-
change, it follows, nevertheless, that
an actual increase in the volume OF
business must have been largely re-
sponsible for SO great an expansion.
A still further evidence OF growth Is
found in the latest reports OF rail-
road earnings. the totals OF all roads
thus far reporting in April showing
an increase of about IA per cent.
over year ago. Railroads are ben
citing somewhat from slight ad-
vances in rates, but here, too, an
actual increase in the volume of traf-
fic plays the most important part. 1t
is quite evident that our railroads
will present satisfactory net results
during 1909. since gross earnings
steadily Increasing and expenses
have been greatly reduced ny re-
Gently enforced economies. Bearing
in mind that the railroads will he free
spenders during the remainder of
the year on account of deferred re-
pairs, improvements and extensions.
1t must be recognized THAT their re-
turn to prosperity cannot be other
wise than an important factor in
stimulating business improvement
elsewhere.
