Financial Confidence Well
Maintained Last Week.
Decisive Turn from Excess OF
Imports Over Exports.
September Exports Reach a Record
Figure for That Month.

New York, oct 23-tinanclal con-

and confirmation was found in some
of the news for that confidence as IL
had been expressed in the previous adj

desire to check the placing of finan-

factor in the stock market revival and

the report current in the steel trade
that prominent railroad executives had

raising of freight rates would be per-
mltted by the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

Taft's Terse Warning.

President Taft's declaration con
cerning the respective standing OF the
law and business methods is the most
forcible utterance on the subject yet
made. 1t serves notice on the com
bined interests that their plea that the
laws must be emasculated or their en-
forcement neglected to grant them an
especial privilege will find no favor
with the head of this administration.
This is done in a single sentence, as
follows:
IF the enforcement of the law is
not consistent with the present meth
DDS of carrying on business, then It
does not speak well for the present
methods of conducting business, and
they must be changed to conform to
the law"
