BUSINESS OUTLOOK GOOD
Dun's Trade Report Gives Encour
aoement for all Lines of Business.

From the Freeport, ILL.,, Standard, Sept.
Dun's trade report for the past
week gives encouragement for all
lines of business, crops and manu-
featuring enterprises. In part the
report says:
Continuous advance in trade activ-
ity is the tenor of the reports from
the principal manufacturing and dis
tributing centers last week The ad-
vance is both in actual volume of
transactions and in that confidence
which is the basis of healthy bust
ness.
The big August bank clearings are
development of present activity and
buoyancy Clearings in August gain
ed 4.6 per cent over last year, while
during this week they increased 10.5
per cent. over 1911 and 17.6 per cent.
over 1910. The evidence of these
clearings is confirmed by the current
railroad gross earnings, which show
a gain of 6.8 per cent. over 1911.
Rates of money are hardening in all
parts of the world, plain response
to the greater movements of trade
and commerce and the bigger de-
mands of new enterprises. The in
creased confidence in the financial
markets is illustrated by the fact
that the August output of new Sc
curities and short-term notes in this
country was s92,000,000 greater than
year ago. The remarkable consump-
ton OF iron and copper products con-
tinues to the point of actual capacity,
and all the principal industries show
satisfactory activity.

From the Buffalo, N. Y. Inquirer
The department Of agriculture in
it's latest announcement reports bum
per crops of corn, white potatoes
spring wheat, oats, rye and buck
wheat.
Business agencies report booming
iron and steel trade, strong demand
for cars and decrease in the number
of commercial failures.
The most novel sign of prosperity,
however, is recorded by Chief John
e. Wilkie of the United States secret
service. whenever work is plentiful
and employment easily obtainable,"
says Chief Wilkie, Crime is less, and
this rule, which has been demon
strated by years of experience, ap-
plies as much to counterfeiting as to
other offenses against the law"
AS a general proposition easy times
are the times freest of crime, indicat-
ing that distress is the cause of much
law breaking.

BANKS SHOW PROSPERITY.

From the Beloit, Wis. Free Press. Sep
tember II. 1912.
Bank deposits are sure indicator
of prosperity in city, and on this
point Beloit banks show steady in
crease and this city on this score
compares most fayorably with the
outside world. Total deposits in the
four banks according to the current
statements aggregate S4,348, 4i8.46, of
which $2,569,371.14 represent the saw
ings of the people. Rockford with
three times the population has little
more than double the amount of
money on deposit in her seven banks
Figuring Beloit's population at $4,000,
which is probably conservative, the
per capita deposits in the banks
amount to $2.41A, which is a pretty
good showing.

wheat, which in spite of the soft wheat
losses In our own section of the coun-

total yield of this grain will run well
above 7O0,000,000 bushels, and if pri-

I; We have had but two years In the
past when the 70O,0OO,OOO mark was

is that the return per bushel for the
harvest now available will exceed that

Should Not Imperil Prosperity

From the Buffalo, N. Y, News
The current number of Dun's Re.
view remarks upon the steady advance
in trade activity, according to reports
from various business centers in all
parts of the country. The advance, it
says, is both in actual volume of bust.
ness and in that confidence which is
the basis of health in business.
1t is well to remember these things
when one is considering the outlook
The situation together with the mag
nificent crops of the year explain why
business men are less and less inclined
to imperil prosperity by overturnine

that they may become unsettled by

There we're good times before the

they soon became bad times. The

tBY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONS
SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Oct. 3O.-Five
sisters, two children and two women
servants were killed today, either from
burning to death or jumping from a
building when fire destroyed st. Johns
orphan asylum.
The fire statred at o'clock this
morning and spread rapidly. The
children were cut off from fire es-
capes and there was a wild rush for
stairways and windows, the sisters
keroically attempting to save their
charges. Mother Mary, sister Superior
of the institution, died at her post
Five other nuns bravely went to death
that their charges might live. Al
noon the bodies of three nuns and
those of the children were still unre-
standing outside the structure when
she heard a baby's cry and rushed in
to the building. She was later seen
with the child al a window. A ladder
was erected, but Mother Mary and the
baby fell back into the flames.
The nuns forced the children to jump
into life nets, entirely oblivious to
their own danger. More than a score
escaped in this way. AS The last
children left the building ii collapsed.
