A BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE
PAST WEEK BY HENRY CLEWS

ment. The British strike is nearing the
end, and this should. help matters here.
In the anthracite trade there are no
serious grievances or either side, and
if the spirit of reason be made to
prevail no greater disturbance should
occur. albeit We may expect a tenn
porary suspension of mining.
Even the steel trade is showing the
effect of business improvement. Or
ders are coming in more freely; prices
are already firmer, and there is every
indication that the railroads will be
forced into large buying because of
much needed replenishment after a
long period of economy and a severe
winter which told heavily upon rolling
stock. 1t may be argued that the rail-
road situation is not very satisfactory.
This is partly true, inasmuch as add
ed to heavy increases in expenses the
roads have had to meet a heavy
shrinkage of profits and are not per-
mitted to advance rates. But these con
ditions have been we'll discounted. The
roads met the situation far better than
could have been expected. Dividends
were maintained; and with the re-
covery in traffic which may soon be
expected their outlook will certainly
become more encouraging. This does
o mean any increase in dividends,
because increased earnings will be
needed for necessary repairs, wage ad-
vances, etc, and to aid the marketing
Of contemplated issues so badly need
ed for improvements, betterments, etc.
The South a raised 16, zoe, 200 bales
of cotton, a yield far in excess of what
was contemplated. The average price
per bale, though lower than a year
ago, is fairly satisfactory and the
South continues to enjoy prosperity.
The large exports of cotton which this
crop will NEAR insure big American
credits in Europe. The lower price Of
cotton has also assisted New England
manufacturers in granting recent adj
vances in wages.
In the money market the tendency is
toward firmer rates as the April set
Elements approach. AS already stated,
our banks are in exceptionally strong
position. But the widening activity
of stocks and the prospects of bust
ness improvement, not to speak of
continued gold exports, are against a
return to the low interest rates which
recently prevailed. Upon the whole,
the tendency will be toward a steady
hardening of rates. Europe continues
to be a large borrower in this market,
and the evident desire of the great
European banks to strengthen their

ment; particularly in South Eastern
Europe and Turkey.
The political atmosphere at home is
somewhat clearer. Radicalism is On
the wane; and though the political ta-
rometer is notorious for unexpected
fluctuations there is reason to believe
that the stock market has discounted
the worst that is likely to happen in
the political weather bureau. The tech
meal position of h stock market is
strong. The floating supply Of stocks
is concentrated in few hands and has
not yet ben widely distributed.
The recent rise was considerably
stimulated by short covering. but
seems to have been mainly due to a
concerted movement of large inter-
ests, who we're naturally prompt to
take advantage of the improved condi-
tions noted above Thus far the rise
has been perfectly legitimate and war
ranted by facts. There is no ease to
beliece that it has yet to run it's
course. Reactions must be expected up
on ~unfavorable developments, or in
case of unexpected realizations; but
the general trend of the market should
be upward for some time to come, or
until it has sufficiently discounted the
changes for the better which began
to appear in the first of February.
