AT THE GARRICK.

The new act which is being given
this week at the Garrick Theatre by
Frederick V. Bowers and his COM
pany is a most interesting song revue,
featuring some Of the latest hits of
the day in a manner which is espe-
cially pleasing. All of the members
OF the company are excellent singers,
while there are also some very good
dancing stunts.
One OF the big features OF the act
Is the elaborate array of scenic equip
ment, which enables the company to
make a scenic change for each of the
especial expressive songs. the sur
roundings being in keeping with the
nature of the Offering. In addition to
the music there is plenty of comedy,
which makes the act most interest
ing novelty.

Bankers continue to report that
funds are steadily accommodating
throughout the country, and the TIN
profitable rates realized on loans as
compared with the returns on the
highest grades of stocks and bonds is
causing institutions in increasing

p1oyment of their idle cash. They are
competing with private investors for
the limited offerings of issues aid
the result is that prices ale steadily

circles is decidedly more optimistic
The market is steadily broadening and
the trend of prices is upward. Many
issues in the investment market are
still on the bargain counter, and if dis
eliminating purchases are made at the
present level, they will show substan-
tial profits in the near future. Those
who have reputation for their abb
lity to correctly diagnose market con-
ditions say that the prospects for the
continuance and even the increase of
dividends was never better than at the
present, and that while such condi-
tons exist we may expect the continu-
ance of bull market.
Trade barometers contiue to rise
and are apparently headed for much
higher levels. Bank clearings and
railroad earnings have been rejecting
the greatly increased volume OF do
mestic trade. The report of the De-
partment of Commerce for the month
Of October sets a new high record in
exports and in the excess of exports
over imports. The latter was no less
than $l86,0O0,0OO, and makes the ex-
cess of exports over imports for the
year ending October $l,626, 886,623,
compared with $500, 433,328 in the pre-
ceding period, an increase of 500 per
cent. These figures are not dry sta
tistics, but are an eloquent expression
of the activities of American com
mercial leaders since the war broke
out last year. They prove beyond
doubt that America refuses to be
thrust into panic and gloom even in
the face of an almost worldwide cat
aclysm. Instead of depression, we
have laid the foundations for lasting
prosperity.

A SIGNIFICANT FACT.

Many deductions will be drawn
from this years election results. But
once fact is unmistakable and signitlc-
ant. Where the Republicans forced
the issue on the Wilson Administra-
ton and its policies they made tre-
mendous gains and secured all their
victories.
Especially emphasizing this fact is
the election in the twentY-third con-
gressional district of New York. There
had died a Democrat who had carried
the district last year by $500, which
has been about the normal Democrat
ic margin since the district has ex-
listed. At this years special election
to fill the vacancy the Republicans
had as a candidate William S. Bennett,
who did not live in the district at all.
Bennett, according to so high a Demo-
cratic authority as the New York
Evening Post, made his campaign on
national issues. He began by an an
nouncement that he would open the
presidential campaign of 1916 by at
lacking the Wilson administration
handling of the tariff, economic. civil
service, and other policies. The Re-
publican National Committee helped
Bennett. Several United States sena-
tors from other states. in the favorite
son class, visited the district to stump
for him. The whole Republican cam
paign, in fact, was made to turn on an
issue of national character.
The Democrat candidate seemed will
