OF falling dominoes.
This curtailment is exactly what the
railroads have done. either to create
coercive public opinion in their favor,
OF else to be ready to adjust them
selves TO the coming decision. The
decision is expected daily. 1t proba-
bly, will not be nearly what the rail-
roads have asked, but it Will end the
period of indecision.
Money is plentiful and easy. The
tariff is not having any evil effect, as
republicans predicted. The new bank
ing system will be in operation within
a few weeks, bringing money and cred
it for expansion in districts which for
merly had to seek financial favor in
Wall street. Banks are in sound shape.
Credits are not over-extended (the re-
verse of the condition in 1900. Best
of all, of late years there has not
been over-production, which is the
primal cause of most spells of hard
times. Factory stocks are low every
where. If a heavy demand should
come from the start, mills will not be
able to keep up with it.
All OF these facts were recited in an
address last week by Frank A. Van
derlip, president OF the National City
bank of New York. Vanderlip predict
ed great prosperity ahead. He said in
part:
THE industrial machine of the ma
ton might be likened TO a great steam
engine, running with load much light
er than its capacity, and ready upon
the turn of a valve that would let in
more steam to respond efficiently to
vastly greater requirements. There is

activity were to come, it would not be !
