New York. Nav 90 lo1s

NeW YORK, May -, 1915.
Were it not for the ravages of the
European war, the United States would
certainly be experiencing decided busi.
ness improvement. Home conditions
are mquestionably moe satisfactory
than they have been for many months.
Our banking situation is sound, and
the operations OF the new federal re-.
serve system are proving a potent fac.
tor IN rebuilding confidence. Money is
easy, and those in good credit have no
dltflculty in securing all reasonable ac.
commodation. Bank clearings prove in.
creased activity beyond a doubt. In
the second week of May the increase at
leading cities was over 70 per cent.
In the first week of May the returns
at all cities showed an increase of near.
ly 80 per cent. This latter total was
largely swelled by activity ON the New
York Stock Exchange, but the clearings
outside CT New York exhibited a gain
Of nearly 10 per cent. No more con.
elusive evidence of legitimate improve.
ment could be offered than these fig.
ures. Industry is improving, and while
our mills are not running on full time,
except when occupied with war con.
tracts, their output is steadily expand.
ing, S;eel mills are daily adding to
their product, which is now estimated
at nearly SO per cent of capacity. Our
railroads are placing orders for equip.
ment rather more freely, and big for.
eign orders for shrapnel, ordnance,
barbed wire, ETC., are keeping a number
Of plants running day and night. Our
cotton and woolen mills are also better
occupied, although there is still much
room for Improvement. Fall River cot.
ton mills are renewing dividends after
a considerable period of Suspension,
and some Of the New Bedford mills are
exceptionally busy Building opera.
tions, though not up to the average, are
increasing. Railroad traffic is growing
ON scene roads, but is unsatisfactory
ON others, Better returns are in pros.
pect, and net figures show occasional
gains Gross earnings on As roads in
March indicate decrease of per
'NhAs +'Nb lNohlAo' ubNtNNI, are tAlttl-
ed to show slight increase owing to
the economies which the roads have
been able to enforce Our crop outlook
is naturally indefinite at this time,
since planting is still incomplete. A
large acreage is anticipated for all i'm.
pOrtant crops, except cotton; good
prices seem probable, and the agricul.
tural districts Of the west are still re.
flecting the beneficent effects Of last
year S rich harvest. Wheat is promis.
ing fairly well in spite of damage re.
ports, which are probably exaggerated.
This brief review of important factors
shows that our home business situation
is generally sound and promising.
There is only one influence prevent.

is less confidence in an early ending
of the war The outcome of the Lusi.

establish that an alliance between
Republicans and Democrats operated
against the bill which did not suit
Barnes.
