BUSINESS EXPANDING
Bank CIearings Exceed Those of Last
Week and Year Ago.


New York, March 23.-Bradstreet's
says:
Though adverse weather conditions in
various parts of the country tend to
make for more or less irregularity in
trade, merchandise continues to move
from first hands in good volume
Dry goods and coal remain in the
foreground as regards activity. In the
dry goods line advances on several
kinds of goods have been made by the
mills and in view of the fact that
stocks are light, that labor demands
higher wages and that production is
still under normal, merchants recognize
if they want goods they must not delay
in placing orders.
Leather is not especially active but
prospects bearing on the future are
good and prices are expected to ad-
vance because supplies are decreasing,
raw material is higher and uses for
other articles than shoes are being ex-
tended.
Business failures in the United States
for the week ending March 81, were Psi,
against 241 last week, 235 in the like
week of 1911. Business failures in Can
ada number 81, which compares with
"a in the like week of last year.
Wheat, including flour, exports from
the United States and Canada for the
week ending March 81, aggregate g.
O69 074 bushels against 2,325,517 this
week last year. For the SO weeks end
ing March 81, exports are 118, 1916, 6S2
bushels, against 8S,970,825 in the CORES
ponding period last year. Corn exports
for the week are 300, 764 bushels against
/, 51O,7 1913 bushels in 1911.

GIVEN TO EARTH.


of the Maine, bur that the tragedy was
part of the causes which led up to the
Spanish war no one familiar with the
circumstances now can doubt.
THAT war every American can feel
proud of because it was fought without
a single selfish instinct and was
prompted by the truest motives Be-
ginning with a self denying ordinance
with respect to Cuba, we were forced
into the attitude of taking over the
Philippines and our course in those is
lands has reflected the highest credit on
our purposes and civilization.
These, our honored dead were
hurled into eternity without the in
spiratiOn of anticipated battle or
hoped-for victory. But they were on
duty when they went down; they
wore the uniforms of their beloved
country, and they are to be classed
we'll to the fore in that long list of
naval heroes whose steadfastness
and courage have given the Ameri-
can nation the high position it oc-
cupies in history among the navies
of the world.
''It is well that we should halt the
wheels of government and stay the
hum of industry to take time to note
by appropriate ceremony the debt we
owe to those who gave up their lives
for the nation. We raised the ship
from the mud bottom of Havana har-
Dor and gave her remains honorable
burial in the blue waves of the ocean.
We now consign to the sacred soil of
Arlington the recovered bones of
those who gave the Maine her per-
Sonality and made her living
weapon for the protection of ma
tional honor and vital interests We
have given to those ceremonies all
possible solemnity that are included
in the honors of war and we shall fail
if they do not express in unmistak-
tone deem 10
ing gratitude of a nation to her mar
tyred defenders

Taft Refers Neutrality Proclamation
to the Attorney General.

Washington, March 23.-At the con-
c1usion of the cabinet meeting Friday
Mr.. Taft referred the question of the
scope of his neutrality proclamation
to Attorney General Wickersham. who
will investigate and report, probably
Tuesday. A private message from
Juan Sanchez Azcona, secretary to
President Madero at Mexico City, re-
ceived today said:
THE report from Juarez that groups
of federal soldiers in Chihuahua had
joined the rebels is a cowardly false
hood. On the contrary every one ap-
plauds the loyalty of our heroic regu-
lars. Tt is also untrue that there has
been any manifestations here against
President Madero. A few days ago
there was a most enthusiastic demon
stration here in his favor in which
10000 of our best citizens took part
and which will be repeated throughout
the republic Sunday next
