TRADE CONDITIONS
SHOW PROSPERITY

Washington, Aug. 2-The monthly
summary of business In the United
States, prepared by the federal re-
serve board from reports OF the
agents of the twelve federal reserve
districts, shows domestic demands
gradually taking the place of foreign
orders.
The present trend of business is
more along the line OF conservation
which bankers and business men
have been urging" the summary
stated. 1T tends TO a more perma-
nent prosperity.
The pressure to place new orders
and TO stock up heavily which was so
prevalent a month or W ago is dis
appearing.
The general business outlook is
satisfactory.
Crops are better than average in
most districts and the labor situation
is satisfactory everywhere except
New York, where the garment work
ers are on strike. and San Francisco
where strikes continue on the water

GOOD NATURED MAN


Pierre, Aug. 2.-Thirty cents for a
twenty-mile night walk is what a
passenger on a Northwestern railway
train thought was reasonable In the
claim he put in TO the road. The
passenger who came from the east
ern part of the state on a ticket TO
this city did not wake up here, and
was carried past Fort Pierre before
the error was discovered. The first
stop at which there was a hotel was
Wendte, twenty miles out. The man
got off at that place at 3 o'clock in
the morning, and instead of waiting
for an eastbound train started to
walk back to Pierre. He got along
all right until he reached the bridge
across the Missouri, and the watch
man would not allow him to walk
across the structure, which forced
him to pay a train fare of 80 cents
to get across on the ferry train.
This was too much for his good ma
ture, and he made a demand upon
the company for a return of the 80
cents, but allowed the rest TO stand
without any demand.
