FAIR WEATHER TO REIGN
IN THE FLOOD DISTRICTS
Special Bulletin Issued Shows
River Conditions in
Central West.

The weather bureau has issued the fol-
lowing special bulletin:
The Ohio river at Pittsburgh seems to
be at a stand at 3O.4 feet. The stage at
Cincinnati this morning is 62.6 feet and
rising. Louisville is 1874, rise of AS
feet since Thursday morning. The Cairo
stage is Ala. The Mississippi at st. Louis
and the Missouri at Kansas City are not
contributing large volume of water to
the flood and are not likely to in the
immediate future.
The rivers Of Arkansas and other
states to the westward of the Mississippi
are not in flood. so that the conditions
ON the lower Mississippi depend almost
wholly on the Ohio flood and the future
rainfall.
The Ohio flood will exceed somewhat
the flood in that river OF January, 1913.
and will closely approach that OF jan
uary, 1907.

Large Receipts of Butter and Market
Dull-Egg Prices Firm.

Boston, April 30.--The local butter
market continues dull and, with receipts
large and outside markets on the slide,
dealers find it impossible to maintain
prices if they would do business. There
has been cut of lac a pound in all
grades since last reports, but prices here
are still high compared with those in
other markets, and buyers are taking
hold so sparingly that even the lower
prices are not easily obtained. There
is no scarcity of cheese and prices are
merely steady, despite the irmer ad-
vices from the country and outside dis
tributing markets. The egg market is
cleaning up well. and prices hold quite
firm. Receipts are still running quite
a little behind those at this time last
year.

in doorway or In some obscure
corner where 1t was possible, for the
time being, to escape the observation

corner a young man stepped hastily

Who's the new girl?" he inquired
abruptly, his critical, observant eyes

Yiddish.
A policeman standing directly in

of pickets turned and slowly made its

been arranged In anticipation OF the

The long counter at the rear of the
hall had been brushed off and on 1t
an aged Russian had arranged a
tempting array of pears, rolls and
pretzels. Five minutes after we en-
tered the hall the scene around that
counter resembled a bargain sale in a
department store. The pickets were
having their breakfast.

At Liederkranz hall about 500 to

was music, followed by speeches.
Then the crowd poured down the

Nearly all turned their steps in the
direction of Throop avenue and Kos

Knitting Mills are located. Some
were to act as pickets, Others went
to look on. AS one looked back to-

Business! What will the harvest
be-" is the question of the business
man >and working man. Grave doubt
has arisen regarding the effect of tar
iff and banking legislation. The i'm
putation that the political opponents
of President Wilson. to discredit his
administration, would prefer to have
hard rather than good times is I'M
worthy of fair-minded men. Our
greatest captains of industry are nat
urally optimists. No pessimist ever
risks his money in new enterprises.
The miser is always a pessimist, and
the man with constructive tendencies
an optimist, says Leslie's. A good
deal of interest is therefore felt, and
much importance attached, to recent
interviews with Mr.. Henry G. Frick,
the greatest ironmaster in the United
States, and with Mr.. John Claflin,
widely known as the king of the dry
goods business" and the president of
the New York chamber of commerce.
Both these influential gentlemen are
reported as stating that the outlook
for business in the United States is
decidedly good in spite of the pro-
posed tariff changes, because their eff
feet has been discounted, and also
because stocks of manufactured goods
ON hand are light.
