IN THE SENATE.
Filibuster to Prevent Passage Of Forest
Reserves Bill.

Washington. June 23.-With the
thermometer standing at almost 80 de-
grees in the shade the Senate spent
the greater part of an unusually long
session today in considering the bill
looking to the creation of forest re-
serves in the White mountains and the
southern Appalachians. After Senator
Brandegee had concluded a speech in
support of the bill, Senator Newlands
took the floor in opposition and it soon
became evident that filibuster for the
defeat of the bill was in progress.
Senator Burton was especially an
tognistic to the bill. When Newlands
suspended. the Ohio senator asked that
the bill be laid aside for the day. There
was immediate and determined objec-
tions in chorus from the several
friends Of the bill.
Brandegee said in private conversa-
ton that ne would hold the Senate as
late as possible. Burton responded
that he could talk until midnight If
unable to obtain an adjournment and
ne added that several senators desired
to be heard. After much discussion
the Senate took recess until 10
o'clock tomorrow.

view with an undertaken, Dan Jackson

Cincinnati. June 23.--In a signed
statement in the Times-Sta President
Taft is quoted as follows:
Washington, June %, 1910.
Il am elated at the legislation which
has been enacted by this Congress. 1t
has fulfilled the pledges Of the party.
1t is a great satisfaction to me that
we have accomplished so much. 1t
has been the custom in the past to
try to fulfill party pledges during the
term of the President elected; we
have secured what we set out to get
during the first regular session OF
Congress.
I'VE nave now the best railroad
regulation law we ever had. The pro-
visions for the supervision of capt.
talization were omitted but this does
not mean that they have been aban-
doned. Renewed effort to enact them
will be made at the next session.
II think the party in power has en-
acted legislation which will insure
greatly to its benefit. 1t has kept its
contract The Congress which is now
closing its first regular session has
done what it promised the people to
do and the Republican party has
good record to take to the people In
the coming elections"

Busy Again.


Two weeks ago the men who make
it their business to watch market con-
diticns in this country were discussing
the cause of a very marked halt in the
march of prosperity. Few of those
who attempted to explain the situation
could agree as to the cause, but all
were convinced that the depression
would continue but short time. Last
week saw the close of this reaction
against tie prosperity which held at
food tide TO January LIST. The large
BUYERS returned to the market and be-
gan nlacing orders of such magnitude
that nrices were strengthened through
out the entire list. The confidence of
the public, became optimism and the
buviDo of securities in small lots soon
took the place of the support denied
the market by the big dealers. Presi-
dent Taft's Lincoln Day speech
STRENGTHENED this attitude and clinched
The. argument that honest business men
would not be made to suffer on account
of the disposition of dishonest business
men to exact privilege where it is en-
titled only to right
Financiers explain the recovery of
the market by saying that the reac-
ton has run its course. that the fu-
tllre of securities has been discounted
in the market and that the pause in
the demand for supplies has been ter
minated by the return of public con-
fidence. The Eastern section of the
country has responded to market con-
ditions much more rapidly than has
the Western The East felt the apathy
of the big financiers more readily and
more keenly than did the West, has
now passed through the period OF wait
ing and is now quickening its step in
time with the business awakening. In
the West the conditions are now noted
which were obtained here in January,
but in another month the balance Will
be established and the whole country
will move forward.
