tarfIy Italy does not claim even that
part of the Italian Tyrol which was a
part of the ancient Kingdom of Italy
under the name of the Haut-Adige.
Her demands are limited exclusively to
Italian population. On the manner in
which the question will be solved de-
pends in great part the establishment
of definite amicable relations between
Italy and Austria"
The government at Vienna replied
that 1t preferred to continue the war
rather than yield part of the Tyrol
and Of Istria, where her troops had
only known success. Italy was obliged
to accept the situation, and the from

Crispi said one day in the tribunal:
THE manifestations in favor of Italy
irredente are painful heritages of the
war of 1866. and of a peace concluded
without prudence and without clever

The irredentist agitation which be-
gan with the movement for national
unity received renewed impulsion in
1859, 1860, 1870 and now in 1915.

BUSINESS IMPROVING,
U. S. AGENTS DECLARE
Every Federal Reserve District Ex-
cept Philadelphia Reports
Trade Improvement.

With the single exception of Phila
delphia. business conditions are declared
to be improving in every Federal reserve
district, according to the regular month
ly reports Of the Federal reserve agents
mad public In the Federal Reserve Bull
letin yesterday.
The reserve agent at New York re-
ported that wholesale business had ex-
panded in Septmber and made statisti-
cal comparison with the financial con-
ditions there year ago. which he re-
garded as justifying optimistic con-
clusions.
The reserve agent at Boston noted
many signs of improvement Here is an
excerpt from his report:
There is a general improvement In all
lines Of trade over last month. This
Improvement is very slight and reports
from same lines vary and are 'spotty. -
The three Southern districts reported
promising prospects because of the bet
ter prices prevailing for cotton. and the
general feeling of confidence obtaining
among cotton planters and the bankers
who do business with them.
The Philadelphia reserve agent re-
ported as a result of inquiries made of
zoo representative firms in his district
that domestic business Is not up to
normal. although firms dealing in emer-
gency orders are working TO capacity.
The Cleveland Federal reserve agent
said:
Improved conditions heretofore con-
fined to special lines have now found
their way into general trade throughout
the district
The Chicago agent said:
so far as there is any change in gen.
craI business conditions, it is for the
better. and there appears to be a feel
ing Of more confidence in the future"
According 20 the st. Louis reserve
agent. general business conditions show
the increased activity indicated by the
improvement during July" This obsrr-
walton is said to apply especially to the
wholesale trade General business is re-
ported as prosperous in the Minneapolis
district. and is said to be moving lat
about normal"
The reserve agents at San Francisco
and Kansas City pointed out a number
Of promising indications and saw little
evidence of any decline from the present
status.
