II Wall street is to be considered the
pulse of American business, as 1t has
so frequently been characterized, ii is
difficult in the extreme to even guess
what influences would leave a favor
able impress upon this nations busi-
ness activities after one has witnessed
the manner in which the great New
York stock market passed over with
scant consideration the resignation OF
Huerta, the principal development in
the past weeks world-happenings.
While the financial centers of Europe
were reflecting through separations for
resumption of business relations with
the revolution-ridden republic, their
views that the elimination of the die
tator means the Inauguration in the
near future of a stable constitutional
government New York eVinced none
of this optimism. For weeks the por-
Tentcus Mexican situation was held as
a club over the stock markets of the
United States. When that situation
was cleared, however, these markets
paid no heed. The pessimistic opera
tors had turned their gaze upon another
oveThanging cloud, from which they as
serted fear of a bolt of destruction
the Eastern rate case. Rumors that
the decision of the Interstate Commerce
Commission would be unfavorable to
the railroads were permitted to drive
stocks to low levels In face OF an &C.
currence which practically precludes the
event of the United States becoming in
volved in war.

The fact that wall Street is still in
