EASY STREET AGAIN.
(Manchester Union.)


The American people, considered
as whole, have wandered by devious
paths from time to time, but not in
recent years, at least, have they been
long off Easy street or far from 1t.
For the most part, their course has
lain. directly along that thoroughfare;
and their itinerary for the coming
year seems scheduled with special ref
erence to 1t. Since the early part OF
July the weather has been remarka-
bly, favorable for crops, both in the
South and In the West, Persons
whose happiness appears to depend on
their discovery of damaged crops have
been forced to admit, albeit tacitly,
that there Is no very extensive ruin.
The steady decline in the market val
ne of Grain and cotton has broadly
gratifying significance. The improve.
ment in agricultural conditions has
lent buoyancy to the confidence Of the
country's finapciers, in spite of occa-
sfonal disturbing developments at
home and abroad. Haryests Of $1,000.
100000 bushels OF corn, more than
100000, 900 bushes of wheat and $14.-
10000 bales Of cotton augur we'll for
the immediate future. Easy street, If
one may base.a conclusion on present
indications, now runs across and
around and up and down the entire
country. a

The Delaware on its visit TO the cor

2S2 tons of fuel oil. She arrived at
Tor Bay, England, June TO- and at
Spithead, the scene Of the review,
June 10. She left Spithead on
June %, and arrived at Boston July,
While abroad, she took on no fuel
engineering supplies, or stores OF any,
kind with the exception Of fresh wa
ter, and on reaching Boston she had
in her bunkers COZ tons OF coal and
is tons OF fuel oil. Her average speed
average, lot tne Whole Tip was Il'oo
knots.
That is, after crossing the Atlantic
twice, in a period Of one month and
Ave days, the Delaware still had suill-
Gent fuel to steam 1900 miles
Just previous to her departure from
Boston, the Delaware returned from
n cruise OF 1880 miles, the last leg
Of which was 1880 miles. On her
arrival in port with only a few hours.
notice, she was sent out on a full
power speed C9nd endurance test,
without opportunity to examine her,

OF 81 knots.
Navy officers also believe the per-
