 FOR HIMSELF AT BALTIMORE

 MT. Smith sang this slogan many times and so lustily that finally his voice
 went back on him. and practically all that
 the well known Alabamian was heard to
 say after awhile was Absolutely"
 MT. Smith thereafter became known as Absolutely" All over Baltimore this
 appelation followed him, and whenever
 he entered the convention hall he was
 hailed with the cry from all quarters of
 the immense auditorium, Here comes Ab- solutely.'
 "Absolutely' Brooks Smith, he was
 dubbed and the name is likely to follow
 him. But MT. Smith did not resent 1t, for he understood that the appellation had been won in fighting for noble cause
 MT. Smith is now an ardent Wilson man. He is. absolutely" for Woodrow Wilson, and he intends to devote all en- ergy at his command to assist in his election.
 His friends believe that the name Is not
 bad one. for it speaks of unprecedented loyalty and strength of conviction. What ever cause Mir. Smith espouses, he does it with his whole heart and soul, and he does it absolutely well.

 Brooks Smith reached Baltimore im- bued with the idea and determination, so far as he was concerned, that Underwood should receive the nomination for Presi- dent. There was no question of compro- mise nor of second choice. Mir. Smith was for Underwood, and he told the peo- pie of Baltimore so just as soon as he ar rived.
 He started off the Underwood demon- stration at Baltimore Everybody is for erwood--absolutely all for Under woodi' yelled MT. Smith, and the cry was taken up by the supporters of the

New York, July 5.-Bradstreet's tomor- row will say
 The weeks developments have been mainly favorable. These include the ar rival of much needed moisture in parts of the northwest the regaining, owing to the hot, forcing weather of some earlier ground lost by the corn and cotton crops; the continuance of exceptional activity in finished steel outputs; the enlargement of fall trade in some markets close to the soil, as for instance, the northwest and parts of the south and last but not least, the expansion due to hot weather and midsummer holiday influences of demand at retail which has relieved final distribu- tors shelves of part of their load and even induced some measure of filling in demand from jobbers. The net result is the growth of @ rather optimistic feeling in general trade and industrial circles and a disposition to look more to the bright side of things, though the gov erning motive is still one of conservatism and, fixed disposition to pick the way toward autumn trade carefully and with deliberation.
 Encouraging reports come from the iron and steel industry. The last half of 1912 opened with a noteworthy spirit of op- timism born of heavy specifications. lib- eral consumption and so far as surface indications so, a favorable reception Of higher prices recently inaugurated on Va- rious finished products.
