CONDITIONS IMPROVING

Trade Review Takes Encouraging
View of Business Situation.
Dun's Review of Trade says this
week:
Business is with remarkable power
of resistance adapting itself to condi
tions unprecedented in the history Il
the world. Never has this country Civ
en- more convincing proof of its ability
to meet grave emergencies promptly
and effectively. Already conspicuous
progress has been made In the work OF
preventing decentralization in the mar
kets and preserving order and sanity
in all branches of trade.
$50 far as this favored country Is
concerned the worst of the financial
stress is over and the markets are
gradually getting into position where
material advantage may be derived
from the disturbance. The interrup
tion to export trade, due to the situa.
tion in foreign exchanges and the with.
drawal Of ocean shipping ia tilities, is
now the chief trouble, exp rt freights
beginning to pile up at shipping cen
ters, but concerted measures are be-
ing taken to relieve this condition as
far as practicable"

ring countries of Europe. The mes.
sage is as follows:
'As official head of one of the pow.
ers slgnatory to The Hague conven-
tion feel It to be my privilege and
my duty under Article of that con.
vention to say to you, in the spirit of
most earnest friendship, that should
welcome an opportunity to act In the
interest of European peace, either now
or at any other time that may be
thought more suitable, as an occasion
to serve you and all concerned in a
way that would afford me lasting
cause for gratitude and happiness"
This message was transmitted to the
various governments through the
American embassies abroad.
President Vision took the position
that the European was was so stupen-
dous and that its effect on the entire
world was liable to be so lasting that
the United States, as one of the few
large neutral powers, could not do
otherwise than at least offer to be the
neaas for bringing about peace.

ANTITRUST BILL PASSED
First of Administration Measures
Gets by Senate,

The federal trade commission bill,
the first of the three antitrust bills
to be considered by the senate, was
passed by a vote of SO to 16. Two
Democrats - Senators Thomas and
West-voted against 1t.
The only independent amendment
added was one by Senator Salisbury
of Delaware, providing that corpora.
tions having capitalization of $4,000.
900 should maintain an agent in Wash.
ington to accept service. Senator
Pomerene had two small amendments,
adopted by the senate without ques.
tion, to permit complainant in a pro-
ceeding before the trade commission
to appear by attorney and the other
requiring that record of proceedings
before the commission be kept in every
case. Following the passage of the
trade commission bill the Clayton bill
was made the unfinished business OF
the senate. The senate now hopes to
finish the trust program and adjourn
by Aug. %.

war cry of the French in the present

they are so much stronger than il
1870 that Germany could not begin tc
duplicate her performance in that cam
paign, when she captured Paris, levied
a war indemnity of a billion francs
and took the provinces of Alsace and
Lorraine.
The general feeling that France is
destined during this war to get full
revenge for 1870 and the confidence
that is expressed on all sides, has
made a marked impression on all
Americans still marooned within the
city. Hourly the impression is gail

The poverty stricken condition Oh
many Americans was greatly relieved
when 100000 francs in gold were ad

and deposited with Morgan, Harjes &

advanced by the United States al
Washington. This money is being
used to cash letters of credit and
checks and drafts usually carried by
Americans while travelling abroad.

WASHINGTON, July S.-All efforts

the sundry civil bill section, providing
funds for the enforcement of the anti
trust law, were voted down. Two
roll calls put the senate on record

which caused the veto of the last sun.
dry civil bill by President Taft, and
which President Wilson, in a memo
randum made when he signed the

The clause provides that no part of
the fund shall be spent in the prose-
cution "of any organization or indi-
vidual for entering into any combina-
tion or agreement, having in view the
increasing of wages, shortening of
hours or bettering the conditions of
labor or for any act done in further
ance thereof, not in itself unlawful"
Cooperative farms organizations
also are exempted. The bill itself
carries $111,OOO,OOO.
