General Trade Conditions.

Dun's says: Oppressive heat check
ed trade activity in numerous direc-
lions, but this is a temporary draw
back and is more than offset by the
benefit to the maturing crops. Agri-
cultural success is obviously the most
important factor in the future out
look, and harvest prospects are made
still brighter by the prevalence Of
high temperatures over wide area
Of country. Losses in mercantile
lines as result of the hot weather,
which retarded retail distribution, can
be later regained, and there is no
abatement Of confidence in sustained
progress during the fall and winter
seasons.
For the present, cross currents ap-
pear in commercial channels, with
the diplomatic complications continu-
ing to cause hesitancy in forward un-
dertakings. Hence, there is less of
the anticipatory buying that usually
follows the assurance of a bountiful
harvest, but general trade has made
substantial recovery from previous
depression, and the fundamental sit
uation is so sound that a permanent
check to the advance is unlikely.
In spite of all restraints, various
branches of business still make head
way, and the dry goods markets have
become permanent in this respect

Winding Backward.

An American inventor has achieved
the seemingly impossible by making
a reel that unwinds from the center
instead Of from the outside, as thread
is unwound from a spool, for instance.
His purpose, of course, is to do away
with the great labor and waste of time
involved in the rewinding of moving
picture films each time after they are
again, says Saturday Evening Post.
Films come on metal reels; and, as
the machine operates, the film comes
OF one reel and, after passing through
the machine, is wound up on a Sec
ond reel. On the second reel the film
is wound backward; SO the operator
has to wind it from that reel on to
another one in order to get 1t started
from the right end the next time he
projects it.
The new reel has a slot cut down
one side, out of which the film is
pulled, beginning at the core. The
problem was to have the film come
out without tearing or kinking; but
pulling the film out through the slot
will work only for few turns. To
avoid this trouble, the reel is made
SO that the slotted side will remain
stationary while the other side will
be revolved by a little electric motor.
The speed of revolution is very i'm
portant and is solved in simple way:
Whenever there is any pull on the
film the motor will revolve the back
side of the reel; and whenever there
is no pull the motor will stop. Con-
sequently pulling on the reel causes
the motor to do the unwinding and
prevents any tanning Of the film.

LEASE OF KEYSTONE
CABLE DUCTS OPPOSED
City Solicitor Ryan Fights Deal
Between Telephone Co. and
Philadelphia Electric

The city of Philadelphia will oppose
the proposed lease Of the cable ducts OF
the Keystone Telephone Company to the
Philadelphia Electric Company, according
TO City Solicitor Ryan, who today noti-
fed Director Cooke, of the Department of
Public Works. that he would be present
at next Tuesdays hearing before the
Public Service Commission at Harris
burg. Mr.. Ryan said he would oppose
the application for a ratification of the
pending lease.
The lease will be opposed on the
ground that the city authorities should be
consulted, and that such lease would be
against public policy as well as a sure
method of sitting competition.
Mayor Blankenburg last November,
when news OF the plan became public,
notified the officers of both companies
philadelphia might consider itself an
interested party" He followed this up
by attempting to obtain an option from
the keystone Telephone Company for
the use of its conduits in the event of the
city erecting its own electric light plant.
The actual leasing of the surplus space
in the underground conduits of the Key
stone Company to the Philadelphia Elec-
trio took place the first of the year and
payments on account of the lease are
said to have been due April 1.
The fact that the Public Service Com
mission has not acted upon the applica-
ton has prevented the contamination OF
the deal. which carries an annual rental
of cents per duct foot used, with
provision for a graduated minimum
rental. which will reach 100000 per annum
within seven years and will average $751;
500 for the q years the lease is to run.
The contention of city officials is that
such an agreement will block the en-
trance of a rival electric company in the
field.
The lease gives the electric company the
right to purchase at the end of the pres
ent contract all conduit space II uses. or
to extend the term of the lease for 10
years at an annual payment of H25.OOO.
The Keystone Company has 12,264,S97 duct
feet in its conduits that cover about SS5
miles of streets.
