Zeppelin Victims.

French illustrated newspapers gave

tending the funeral Of the men, women
and children killed in the recent raid OF
the Zeppelinsirshtps on Paris. All the
city was in the streets along which the
cortege. with the twenty-thres bodies,
each on a separate gun carriage, were
taken to the famous cemetery Of Pere Ia
Chalse. Each coffin was draped with the
tricolor OF France. Troops lined the way
and marched in the professional ranks.
The funeral was q national tribute and
was Of deeply sorrowful and pathetic
character. Hundreds Of persons IN the
great concourse, men as well as women.
were carried away by their emotions, and
though OF no kin to the dead were unable
70 restrain their tears. It was said that
this was the most impressive funeral ever
known within more than a hundred years

The following summary of the New
York list was made public by W. B.
Hibbs & Co. after the close yester-
day:
The Street was inclined to inter
pref the Mexican developments as con-
structive in the sense that the same
would appear to spell definite action
of kind that is likely to eradicate
many Of the evils which from time to
time have provoked so much concern
both as to the safety OF American life
and property. The shares of corpora
lions having interests in Mexico were
in active demand, as was a goodly
portion of the standard issues and
many specialties. Realizing produced
concessions from the high levels, but
even so the tone of the list was ex-
ceptionally good.
TT is quite probable that much
time Will be consumed in adjusting the
conditions TO the south of our border
and as result thereof every now and
then the stock list may receive a jolt
but even so ii would appear unless the
international political prospect be-
comes further complicated that strong
efforts will be put forth by promi-
nent market interests to establish a
higher range OF quoted values"

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Bradstreet and Dun Report Continuance of Unusual Pro-
ductNe Activity, Plethora of Money in Banks,
Labor Scarce and Jobs Plentiful.

New York, March 1o.-Bradstrest's Re-
view of Trade for the week ending to-
morrow will say:
Trade reports vary little in tenor
from those Of preceding weeks, the story
they tell being one of sustained activity,
with production much below unstinted
demand.
Buying in most parts of the country
proceeds on an extensive scale, car short
ages and embargoes have become more
serious, vessels to take out exports are
lacking, the scarcity of dyestufrs is
acute, labor is in scant supply, jobs are
more numerous than seekers, wages keep
on rising. and large employers find IT
more profitable to placate their employees
than to resist their demands.
Better employment at relatively high
wages has brought on increased demands
for staple articles and enlarged savings
accounts.
In fact, banks practically everywhere
are surfeited with money, there is more
doing in real estate, the leading producer
OF steel reports record orders on its books,
likewise intends to spend S35, 10000 on a
new plant and improvements, pig iron is
being produced at an unprecedented rate,
current sales Of the metal are heavy,
mills making finished steel are heavily
oveBsold, and such extraordinary demand
Tor ore exists that ships cannot wait
for the ports which are ice-bound to
open"
The Washington herald., 1916-03-11

New York, March 9.-Dun's review of
trade Will say tomorrow: Disregarding
precedent, business steadily grows in vol
ume at time when more or less con-
traction is usually experienced. 1t Is the
period for temporary lull, but even
In retail branches, which ordinarily are
most affected, activity is exceptionally
well sustained on the whole.
Clearance and special sales, being
largely patronized, keep the department
stores, busy, while snow and cold over a
wide area have stimulated final distri-
button Of seasonable goods, especially
rubber and heavy footwear
Though the benefit in this connection,
the storms, however, really proved a
drawback by adding to the burdens of
the railroads, which continue overstrained
by the great rush of traffic. In all sec
tions, particularly in the east, complaints
are more numerous of delays in ship
ments and in some industries, notably
in steel and leather, curtailment of op-
erations is threatened.
1t is not a time for predictions. Those
who recently predicted the end Of the
rise in prices are much mistaken. That
the upturn cannot continue indefinitely
is obvious, yet there is no means OF
telling when the movement will meet
with a check. Especially is this true
with regard to iron and steel. The sit
uation in the great basic industry is
wholly lacking in precendent. Prices
that were considered extreme a few
weeks ago are readily paid today.
