TRADE CONDITIONS BETTER
Indications That Recent Wall Street
Depression Had No Bearing on
Business Situation.

New York;. G. Dun 6. Co.'s week.
ly review of trade viii say:
There is no lack of evidence that
the business situation is much better
than the recent depression in Wall
street would indicate. A notable i'm
provement in business confidence took
place in the latter part of the week
due to recovery in security prices, to
advices that much needed rains we're
falling in crop sections, and to the
excellent quarterly report Of the lead
ing steel producers.
That conditions in the iron and steel
trade during recent months have been
more satisfactory than generally be-
lieved is evidenced by the report Of
the United States Corporation for the
second quarter.
Production is at fair rate and re-
ports of cancellations are not borne
out by facts. Business is brisk in steel
bars and the minimum price is $1.40
Pittsburg. Shading continues in sheet
products of from 81 to 81 per ton.
primary dry goods markets and trad
ing is slightly more active for staple
prints, bleached goods and duck, while
miscellaneous export fabrics are in
better call with values held steadier.
Sales at Fall River were equal to
full weeks output, for the first tima
in a number of weeks, and trading is
quite general in all lines of odd goods.
Mems wear for spring and dress
goods have been opened by large
corporation; orders on plain staple
worsteds increased steadily, but con.
servatively. Yarns are tirmer and in
better inquiry. Silks in fancy weaves
and in the gray for converting pur-
poses sell steadily.
Shoe buyers still operate conserva-
lively, following the recent buying in
Boston, and hold off from placing fur
ther orders of account until crop re-
suits are determined. Footwear val.
ues are again about 21a per pair lower
all around. There is no snap to leath-
er trading, but the demand is more
steady than month ago.
Large buyers are said to be short
of supplies, and though they operate
more or less from hand to mouth, ap-
pear desirous for immediate shipments.
Further clearance sales by large Chi.
cago packers of back sailing hides at
about the prices accepted on previous
large sales have served to impart a
much better tone to the domestic hide
market.

Loud cries of Harding" rose from
the delegates as the roll of counties
began. There was silence until Ma
rion county was reached. Ex-Con-
gressman Grant E. Mauser, amid
cheers, took the platform to place
Warren G. Harding's name before the
convention as a candidate for gov
ernor.
The convention cheered the name Of
Harding for twenty seconds, the gal
leries lending much assistance.
Mauser's speech dealt with Hard
ings record as legislator and lieuten-
ant governor. "He will unity and
strengthen all elements of the Repub-
lican party" he said Let me proph.
esy that Warren G. Harding will be
the nominee, and will bring all the
kickers into the fold, and that Sena-
tors Burton and Dick will be in the
forefront of the fight for Governor
Harding"
Harding's nomination was dramatic.
There was intense silence as Hamilton
county was reached, on the third roll
call. On the vote of Hamilton county
depended the nomination.
George B. Cox rose, the first time
| in the convention. Hamilton county
casts it's 81 votes for Warren G. Hard
Ing" he said.
Instantly, it was understood, Cox
had acknowledged defeat. The vet
eran of hundred battles gave no
sign of disappointment, and his smile
was almost genial.

Columbus, O.-Pique and not party
politics ruled the Republican state
convention and made Warren G. Hard
ing, of Marion, the nominee for gov
ernor.
The game was played not for the
strongest candidate, although he may
have been chosen, but for the privi-
lege of naming him.
Two strong men contended for the
mastery, United States Senator Theo-
dore E. Burton and George B. Cox,
and the Cincinnati man outmaneuver-
ed and outfought his antagonist
Defeated in his boasted ability TO
nominate Judge Oren Britt Brown, OIL
Dayton, through the intrigues OF the
state organization captain and the
two senators, Cox executed the unex-
pected strategy Of abandoning that
candidate and throwing his full
strength to Harding, who had not
looked for it nor requested it.
In so doing he blocked and over
turned the carefully plotted purpose
of the men in Ohio closest to Presi-
dent William H. Taft to nominate Con-
gressman Nicholas Longworth, the
son-in-law Of former President Theo-
dore Roosevelt.
From the standpoint of political con-
vention tactics it was perhaps the best
stroke that Ohio has witnessed for a
decade Its value to the Republican
party remains to be determined.
The boldness and the success of the
keen play forced even the admiration
of the managers Of the baff1ed forces.
No better illustration can be given
than that of a battle ship riding along
in majestic strength, it's commander
absolutely certain of victory, and en-
countering submerged mine. With
It's bottom blown in the craft goes
down with all on board and leaves no

To complete the picture, it might
be added that the commander was
lured onto the field of danger, heliev-
ing that the enemy and not himself
was to be the victim of a deadly sur
prise.
There were many political reputa-
tions made and unmade in this long
drawn-out and suddenly ended contest,
but the greatest sufferer is, beyond
all question, Senator Theodore Burton.
Without going into detail, it need
only be said that he is now regarded
