employee do not know if this is so,
but these are the figures given out by
the railroads and published in the
New York Sun: l thought the aver
age wages of these so-called aristO-
Gratis of labor would be somewhere
up in the neighbOrhOOd of a thou
sand or fifteen hundred dollars, but
it seems not. The average is lower
than the standard of living set by the
best experts for the typical family of
three or four human beings. What
if the employees get As cents out of
every dollar of receipts? Could the
railroads get the dollar if they did not
buy the labor first? And could the la
Dor be bought cheaper?

public opinion to the conclusion that
the roads will go to wrack and per-

INDUSTRY RESTS ON
 L|DFOUNDATION
Constructive Developments Still PredOminate in the
 Business World

New York, June 23.-Dun's review to- morrow will say:
 With the economic structure, through the better organization of banking re- sources, credits and industry, resting on a more solid foundation than ever before, confidence is unimpaired by the interna- tional contingencies It is noteworthy that speculative markets have been only moderately disturbed and money and le- gitlmate enterprise not at all, though prudence is shown in extending com mitments further ahead This is a whole some tendency and the readjustment of prices, now in progress in some lines will also prove beneficial in its ultimate effects. Constructive developments still predominate in the business world and remarkable activity prevails at a period which ordinarily is one of the quietest rush to buy that featured the recent op- erations-the high costs entering more into calculations now that requirements are mainly covered far ahead,-but in most instances new demands are greater than usual at the beginning of sum- mer No machinery is idle in any im- portant industry through lack of con- tracts, but in some full production is not possible because of strikes and la Dor shortage.

WEEKLY REVIEW
 OF COTTON MARKET
Prices Reached the Highest Level of Early Season
 Bull Movement

New York, June 23.-There has been very violent advance in the cotton market during the past week with prices reaching the highest levels touched since the elimination of the early season bull movement. Near months have been relatively firm with July contracts selling up to 13.3Sc dur ing Thursdays trading, or Ss points above the lowest level reached at the beginning of this month and practi- cally cents per pound above the low level touched on the break of last Feb ruary.
 This advance reflected a scarcity of shorts brought about by reports that cotton which had been held in both the New York and New Orleans mar deliveries on July contracts had been sold for export. July hedges wers bought in against these sales. and, as prices worked higher, covering became general, while bullish southern spot advices and some uncertainty as to the progress of the crop also promoted fresh buying for long account. It was reported that ocean freight room for several thousand bales had been en- gagged for shipment from New York to Liverpool at the decline to $1 per hundred in the freight rate, while Q demand was also reported for room to Genoa and the large sales in the local spot market were taken as a further indication that easier ocean freights were stimulating foreign buyers.
 The presence of buyers in the local spot market was explained partly on the ground that ocean freight rates to Liverpool from here were relative ly cheaper than from some of tue southern ports and exporters we' said to. be paying a premium of 15 points on July. A private report issued dur ing the week estimated the screage this year at 39,617,271 acres, an in crease of 12,58 per cent over last year and the largest on record. but these figures were probably offset by con- tinued complaints of cool wet weather in the belt, or apprehensions that scarcity of fertilizer and boil weeviI damage might lead to rapid deteriora. tion during the summer. bullish view of possible war with Mexico was quite generally expressed around the ring on the ground that 1t would stim- ulate demand for heavy weight goods and might interfere with the supply of field labor in the southwest.
