beg TO make reply 10 your letter oil
December 10 as follows:
First-I do believe that the present bust
ness prosperity is founded on a substan-
tlal basis Admitting that the estimates
Of the years output of farm crops may
be somewhat overdrawn. it still remains
true that this important economic basis
is thoroughly broad and sound. The IN
dustrial activities OF the country also
have developed from the low level fol-
lowing the strained depression of 1907 'Us
by slow. firm processes. At no immedl-
ate point does business seem TO be over
strained. The credit basis Of the country
seems likewise sound Only by reform OF
our archaic banking and credit system,
however. can future soundness and prog
ress be assured.
Second-The business growth Of the las;
few months should. under normal clrcum-
stances. be continued through 1913. 1t Is
possible. however, that a setback may
occur during the year. Much Will depend
upon the early settlement of the Balkan
situation and the restoration OF normal
conditions TO the markets and bourses OF
Europe. The prospect of tariff legisla-
ton will also tend somewhat to unsettle
business development until definite pol
icy on the part OF the Democratic party
becomes apparent

BATTLESHIP COST HIGHER
Estimates for New Vessels Gail
for S15,000,000 Each.

Washington. Jan. 3.-The high cost OF
battleships was explained to-day to the
subcommittee OF the House Naval Az
fairs Committee, preparing the naval APP
proprlation bill. by Chief Constructor
Richard Morgan Watt of the Navy De-
partrnent The Chief Constructor told
the committee that estimates for battle
sbins 10 be authorized In this years bill
must be based on a cost of about $1,000,

procured new ships for 100000 Last
years bill appropriated on basis OF
about sl250O.0o0 a ship.
Constructor Watt asserted that the IN
crease in tonnage Of big ships ana the
increase In armor and armament caused
the advanced price.
The committee has not yet reached INC
troublesome question Of whether the Dill
will include one, two or three battleships
or none. A campaign already has been
begun among members Of the House Tor
a single ship. II the two-battleship men
decline to compromise another fight VIII
