WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Suspense Due Doubt as to Answer of Kaiser u S. Note
and Probable Entrance Of Italy Has Made Itself
Manifest in Trade by General Hesitation.

New York, May 2l.-Dun's trade re-
view covering the week, tomorrow will
say:
The uncertainty regarding the Euro
pean situation and the broadening scope
Of the war have occasioned some hesita-
tion in general business and reduced the
volume Of trading in the stock and other
speculative markets.
The effect Of this. however. while add
ing to the underlying conservatism has
not materially changed the recent trend
toward normal conditions in the principal!
;ndustries and trades. The improvement
has held its own and, as the special
advices received this week from ninety
leading cities clearly show, there is a
slow but steady expansion in business.
Activity is most pronounced in the trades
that benefit from the big war orders
but progress also appears in domestic
consumption. especially in the agricul-
tural sections. which have profited by the
high prices for farm products and are now
sustained by the prospects for large crops
this year
1t is. moreover, shared to a considerable
extent by the East. where liberal invest
ment Of capital has enabled many large
loans. both foreign and domestic. to be
taken up. Bank clearings and rail-
road earnings have increased. Money con-
tinues easy and more gold has been re-
ceived from France.
Collections are prompt Exports. while
not so imposing. are still heavy. In
the dry goods markets there is, in the
main. a steady distribution and In some
lines much activity. while exports OF
woolen goods are large. The shoe trade
Is moving slowly. but some improvement
in present conditions and in prospects
is noted. The forward movement gener-
ally is slow and the fact that there is
no disposition to assume large specula-
tive risks. in view of the international
conditions. with their serious problems. is
altogether a healthy feature.
The Washington herald., 1915-05-22

New York, May g.-Bradstreets review
Of trade for the week tomorrow
will say:
While trade and Industrial conditions
continue to move along on favorable
lines. the weeks developments disclose
some irregularity On the one hand, wet
or cool weather has checked distributive
trade. and especially retail business. and
at the same time unsettled international
political matters tend to cause whole
sale buyers in soUe lines to go slow,
while the same factor holds up certain
speculative projects. But on the other
hand industry Is more active. employ
ment is increasing and war orders con-
tinue to cause extraordinary speed at
number Of centers.
Jobbing trade in essential staples ap-
pears to be on a par with. il not above.
last years. Mail-order houses are doing
we'll. High prices for cereals insure
prosperity for farming communities. and
crop conditions, notwithstanding exag-
gcrated reports of insect damage to win
ter wheat. are unusually good.
Railway traffic is increasing. buying
OF steel by the railroads is larger. bank
clearings. though lighter than last week.
displayed gains over one and two years
ago. and in some places collections seem
to be better. While money is easy. de-
mand is not especially marked. and it Is
noted that the Chicago Federal Reserve
Bank has ceased buying government
bonds. which some deem an indication Of
a new bond issue.
Reports by sections indicate in and out
characteristics. quiet prevailing in the
agricultural South as well as in the
Pacific Northwest but in the industria:
South affairs continue to mend. In the
Southwest the situation is auspiciou:.
and a similar statement applies to the
due reservation being allowed
for the temporary effects of wet weather.
In the central West many plants are
rushed to extraordinary activity to
promptly turn out war orders. and in
parts Of New England like condition
prevails. On the Pacific Coast trade is
responding to favorable influences fol-
lowing heavy rains. which help the crop
outlook.

FLOOR LEADER AND
WILSON BREAK ON
NAVAL PROGRAM


Washington, Nov. ST. Congress-
man KitchIn, floor leader OF the
house Of representatives, said today
after an hours talk with President
Wilson that be would not support
the administration naval program.
Upon entering the White House
for his conference, Kitchin COM
mented.
I'm going to be shown"
He apparently was not shown. for
upon leaving he again commented:
~ had a most pleasant CONVERSE
tion with the president. but all that
i can say is that regret very much
to be unable to support his naval pro-
gram"
The two did not discuss the army
plans, but Kitchin intimated that he
would center his attack upon the
navy. without being acrimonious,
the North Carolinan announced he
would merely tell the house why he
felt unable to support the measures.
II think I will be In the minor
Iity," he commented. Il am very
sorry indeed, but ] do not feel that
! I can get on the other side"
Among other things, Kitchin holds
the view that submarines are far
more effective in warfare than are
the big battleships. Secretary Of the
Navy Daniels. on the other hand. be-
lieves in middle course. while near
I ly all naval experts agree that, while
the activities OF submarines are spec
ltacular, their actua, inroads on an
enemy are small compared to the
amount OF traffic crossing the ocean
and the effectiveness OF strong battle
ships to guard 1t.
Kitchin is likely to have the sup
port OF a group Of southern congress-
men, not extensive, but determined.
