AUSTRIAN HOSPITALS
Up TO THE MINUTE
Everything Possible Is Done to
Ease Pain of Wounded
Soldiers.

Budapest, Dec. Ito ease those
upon whom the horrors of war are first
visited the Austro-Hungarian empire
is exerting every effort. Today the
correspondent of the Associated Press
visited two of the principal military
hospitals Of Budapest and found that
everything needed to make the
wounded comfortable and insure their
recovery and physical well!beilg had
been done. Whatever the advance
in surgery and medicine has taught
is being applied in these large estab-
lishments, one Of which cares for
over 1000 and the other for over
1900 wounded.
The inspection CT the two hospitals
was made under the auspices Of DR..
Stefan Barely, lord mayor of Buda-
pest. Later the correspondent visit
ed the American Red Cross hospital,
an establishment able to house about
200 wounded and just now caring for
about 1855. A number of the wound
ed who had arrived from the Galician
front had been brought there.
In the operating room OF the Amer
lean Red Cross hospital a Russian
soldier lay on the operating table.
The man groaned. DR.. Charles Mac
Donald of the United States army
stood at the head of the table and a
nurse was patting the cheek of the
Russian with a gloved hand. On the
floor near the foot of the table were
stains Of fresh blood.
Elsewhere about the room stood
four other American nurses and an
Austrian orderly-all of them sad
faced, all of them expectant. The man
on the table was about to die.

brought here just now,' explained DR..

The mal had a comparatively slight
bullet wound in the fleshy part o the
back, and, as DR.. Macdonald said,
would have recovered easily had he
been given attention. But he had
been left behind by his own and
when the Austrians found him his

the probability Of so gratifying a re-

Industrial Situation Improving

After a period of business depres-
sion the signs of improvement start
in small way, but a start once in
evidence wide range of activity
usually follows soon Business in the
industrial world has been extremely
dull, but depression reached bottom
several weeks ago.
In November there was a small in
crease in orders for steel products,
and large increase in pig iron sales.
There was slight improvement i'll
the coal business last week, and con-
tinued improvement is expected
throughout this month. The active de-
mand for iron is significant, and the
buying movement will mean an i'm
mediate revival in many lines of in
dustrial operation.
The railroads in the west have had
heavy traffic in grain, and some of the
eastern lines have had substantial
increase in freight business. Owing to
the cotton situation, the coal situation
and the iron and steel situation the
southern roads have suffered more
than those of any other section, but
freight is beginning to move in
somewhat larger volume in this part
of the country and indications point TO
an increase between now and Christ
mas.
Signs are now many that an era of
old time prosperity will set in with
the new year. These little signs that
have been mentioned certainly justify
an expectation of great things to come
in the near future.
