WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE.

CBy the International News ServIot)
New York. Oct. H.-Dun's weekly re-
view Of trade tomorrow Will say:
"Disproportion between demand and
supply Is more pronounced than any pre-
yious time and the rise In prices continues
apace. Widely divergent lines exhibit
steadily increasing strength and, though
most commodities are already at an eX-
treme position. there Is no sign that the
credit has yet been reached In steel
and iron, in textiles, and in other branches
the eagcrHess Of buyers Is regarded a.
foreshadowing still further advances the
growing scarcity Of materials and prod
ucts impelling urgent efforts 10 cover far
distant requirements
Evidences Of expansion are visible on
every hand, but many manufacturers and
merchants, with commendable Judgment
and prudence, endeavor TO repress demand
rather than encourage II, and credits are
closely scanned. Obligations generally.
however, are met with greater prompt
ness and preliminary returns Of October
failures indicate the smallest mortality
for the period siuCe 1872, in spite OF the
Increase in new enterprises.
Money rates remain in an easy po-
sitiOn, and this nations function as bank
er TO the rest OF the world is broaden
Ing. as indicated by the announcement Of
huulIlOldl LQTelBn borrowing IN Llls mar
ket. With scarcely an expression re-
ports Of financial commercial and indus
trial progress surpass all previous rec
oTds, and the widespread prosperity is
reflected in bank exchanges and other sta
ustics that measure the rise and fail OF
business.
"Clearings through the banks from out
side interests were SIS per cent larger
than last year and gross earnings OF rail-
roads reporting for two weeks OF Oc-
tober show a gain OF lib per cent over
1918, when the revenues were unprece-
dented for the period. Yet, while bust
ness is greater in volume than in any
other year, the rapidly advancing prices
constitute a source OF complaint, and it
Is obvious that a point must ultimately
be reached at which consumption Will be
checked"

say tomorrow:
Large prohts on an unexampled busi-
ness by manufacturers unprecedented
wages and earnings by industrial work
ers and high record prices for all farm
products at the height Of the crop-movinE
season constitute a combination Of stimu-
latinE features such as has never here
tofore been experienced at one time
Nevertheless, there Is clear evidence
that a ground swell Of speculation is
sweeping parts Of the country and in
other instances fears that there may not
be enough goods TO go around tend u
produce seemingly unnatural desires 70

Of periods. With such conditions, plus
ascending prices for raw materials, con
fronting them. manufacturers, particular
ly Of textiles are proceeding with eau
don IN booking business for distant de-
livery With talk OF s. wheat Scent
cotton and uneTampled profits for indus
trial properties making up war orders.
the atmosphere seems 70 be permeated
with speculative manifestations

traordinary condition OF Affairs certainly
would eurtaN consumption. buying for
present use as well as for future needs
continues OF record proportions Retail
trade, estimated by high wages and low
temperatures in the West, IS active Gs

coWded with business, and manufs cturers

President NJ II. Justice Of the Cen
trail association will call meeting OF
the league directors some day next
week to act upon the surrender of the
Keokuk baseball franchise, he an
nounced today. Neither the date nor
the place has been decided upon, but
it is believed that Cedar Rapids will
be selected.
Mr.. Justice said that the meeting
would not be held this week as he ex-
pected some word from the National
commission concerning Tearney's pro-
test on Rock Island and that he did
not want to call the directors togeth-
er until the case had been definitely
settled.
The principal thing to come before
the meeting will be the surrender OF
the Keokuk franchise. which will be
accepted. The directors will then
undoubtedly vote the vacant berth to
Rock Island.
Preside lent Justice has announced the
list of umpires who will work in the

are new men, but are highly recon-
mended. The list is as follows: E. E.

A Great Writer.

Burlington Hawk Eye: We think of
Abraham Lincoln as the great man OF
the people, as the president who pre-
served the union, as the liberator OF
the slaves, as one of the most human
of the politicians and statesmen of
all times, as the bearer Of the heavi-
est burdens that were ever imposed
upon an American citizen.
Perhaps we are not often reminded
of the fact that Abraham Lincoln was
one of the great literary men OF his
time, or perhaps that Lincoln is one
of the great figures in American lit
erature. He wrote no best sellers.
and he manufactured no long wrnded
biographies or histories. What he
wrote is worth re-reading today, and
will be read and read in future cen
turtles At least two of his messages
to congress are among the very best
things in literature, that have been
produced in this country. or perhaps
In any country. It has become the
fashion 10 praise the Gettysburg ad-
dress. which is rather q prose poem,
and which has never been euualled
in this country. But 1incoln's mes
sages were even greater in their way
Yet. none Of the late comers-be they
orators or writer's have initiated
Lincoln, or approached him so far as
his style is concerned, nor in the
brevity of his messages.
There Is something in the printed
page of dncoln's literary work that
seems to be alive and to speak to
the reader. And it is not easy &c
