BUSINESSh NOT EXPECTED
TO INCREASE TILL NOV.
Uncertainty About Election
Causes Halt in Indust-
rial Conditions.

w Thomas of the Simplex Railway
Appliance company stated today that
now new orders have been received
lately. He said that he did not look
for business TO pick up until late this
fall
He stated that business conditions
are very unsettled as result of the
Roosevelt speeches that have been
made over the country. The European
investors are afraid of American in
vestments owing to the agitation that
has been carried on.
There is an air of uncertainty about
the business situation that makes it
impossible for the big corporations to
float their bonds and the railroads have
decided on policy of retrenchment
that prevents the carrying out of new
projects.

them almost unintelligible.

that they were taken in.
