MANY IDLE MEN COMING

There appears to be a general move
ment of idle men toward the Pacific
coast, according to people travelling
from eastern points to California. The
sight of so many idle men has caused
much comment among the travellers.
Many of these men, it is said, have
the appearance of Mechanics or trades
men, and profess to be looking for
employment.
Trainmen complain that they are ex-
periencing difficulty in keeping these
men from ~westbound trains and say
that not for many years have they
noticed so many loiterers in the vicini-
ty of railroad yards, stations and along
the right OF way. Upon n or two
occasions bands of these men have
taken possession of an entire freight
train.
The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1911-07-13

these contingencies seems probable.
The reports from the south indicate a
very favorable cotton crop. In fact,
the report is so favorable that the
price of cotton on the market has fall
len off considerably during the past
few days. The reports also indicate
good corn, wheat and oats production.
There are evidences of a marked re-
eovery from the recent depression in
the iron and steel trade. There is a
very marked increase in the demand
for railroad iron and steel.
The official reports of the nineteen
leading national banks of New York
City, in reply to the recent call of the
controllers, show that they have in
creased their holdings of securities by
$2S, 900 900 since the call for March
18th. The increase of such securities is
500, 900 900 over the amount as shown
IN their reports "a year ago. Every
thing seems to indicate that money is
becoming easier and, therefore, we
should look for considerable improve
ment in the investment and speculative
markets. There will be distributed
this month many million dollars in the
way of intrest and MISUNDERSTANDING
Review.
