ADVANCE ORDERS GREATLY
INCREASE VOLUME OF TRADE
Dun's weekly Review Says Industrial
Improvement Is Due to Bigger
Earnings OF Corporations.

Earnings OF tOFpOr11ionss
New York, n. Y. Aug. SIR. G. Dun
& Co.'S weekly review Of trade says:
Advices from leading cities, both east
and west. speak of bigger volume Of
plOyment of labor and a growing con-
fidence that the crops will make the
future secure.
In every part of the country. busi-
ness optimism is the rule and all other
considerations are practically ignored
in the conviction that a period Of ma
tional prosperity has set in which only
some great and improbable calamity
could stop.
rule Of discount TO 4 percent is an in
ternational expression of more urgent
demand for money.
The industrial Improvement is
shown by the fact that the large in
crease in September dividend and in
terest disbursements is chiefly due to
the bigger earnings of industrial cor
porations. BituminOus coal, as usual,
in a period of industrial expansion is
large. but the feature now is in the
growth of imports.
Further advances are generally ex-
pected in iron and steel, rejecting the
prevailing satisfactory condition in this
market.
Sheet steel is in good demand and the
larger plants are sold up to next jan
uary Similar conditions prevail in
wire products and prices on these have
been advanced. Railroad requirements
necessitate the placing of considerable
business and a substantial volume OF
orders for rails and other equipment is
said to be pending.

THE DEMOCRATIC SlTUA-
TON

Among the masses of the
Democrats, Woodrow Wilson has
more than five votes to one for
Harmon or Clark or Underwood,
or anyone Of the other candidat-
es. Wherever there are Presl-
dental primaries, or any other
adequate means for the voters
TO give effect to their wishes,
Wilson will get practically all the
delegates. Even as it is, with
more than half the country sub
iect to machine methods Of
selecting delegates, Wilson VIII
have three times as many dele
gates in the convention as Har-
mon or Clark or Underwood.
The unfortunate thing for Will
son is that the Harmon-Clark-
Underwood will combine and
act as a unit against him, and in
the Democratic convention II
takes two-thirds to win. This
is in contrast with the rule in
the Republican convention,
where a majority wins. Wilson
will have about as many delegat-
es as all other ayowed candidates
together. A most powerful
factor will be the New York
delegation of 90, almost one
tenth the entire convention

ton, under the abominable New
York system, will be chosen
practically by one man, the lead

doubtely be delivered to that one
