TEN THOUSAND TONS OF
ICE ALREADY STORED

The d. & r. G. has about half
finished the storing of ice for the
winter. Nearly 10000 tons are in
the local ice houses at the present
time. Some trouble has been had in
getting the ice here fast enough from
the company lake in Pando to keep
the men busy. About forty men are
at work there now. The 10, 900 tons
stored represents about three hun
dred cars of ice. The ice comes
three layers to the car. with ~ cakes
in each layer, each cake weighing
about two hundred pounds. This
year it is of exceptional quality. The
ice being handled at present is 16
inches thick. At one time ice "a

New York, Dec. 24.-Dun's Review
will say tomorrow:
wheat and other products and the
colder weather, which stimulates re-
tail distribution. exert the most I'M
portant influence in the markets this
week.
''December, with its holiday inter-
ruptions and inventories. Is not usual
ly a month for large developments In
business activity, but the recent prog
ress In financial recuperadon, the rapid
establishment Of q big balance OF trade
In favor of this country, and the rate
decision giving q large part OF the re-
lief asked from the Interstats Com
merce Commission, combine 70 create a
favorable sentiment in business
The better feeling has undoubted-
Iy impaired q brisker movement to the
Christmas trade, which, though less
in volume than last year, has been
much more active than appeared pos
sible a few weeks ago.
Reports from the leading centefs.
while indicating no important increase
in sales this week, are Of one accord
in forsshadowing Improvement after
the new year opens.
'Tn iron and steel the actual output
is reduced by the holiday Interrupt
tions, but there are a number Of IA
vorable Developments, including pros
poets OF larger railroad buying.
The leading producing company an
nounces that no general reduction In
wages Is contemplated at this time.
Railroad gross earnings In two weeks
of December decreased 10 per cent,
but IL is estimated that the Eastern
roads will gain about S50.0oO,000 q
year from the advanced rates.
Nothing in the business situation Is
more striking than the remarkable ex-
pansion in export. the foreign demand
for wheat being 80 great as to fore
shadow an ultimate exhaustion of sur
plus supplies Notwithstanding the rec
ord-breaking yield this year. Big war
and other orders from abroad for cloth
ing and woolens are appearing Both
cotton and wool are being sent to Ger
many. Altogether. shipments are so
great that in the first three weeks of
December the excess of exports over
imports at the principal customs dis
tricts aggregated over S6s.o00.00o. In
evitably, this favorable balance of trade
serves to improve the position of the
United States in the international
credit markets, and makes the ex-
change situation normal, sterling rates
declining to the lowest point since
February.
