BUSINESS
is Keynote of the
Present Situation Despite
Prevalence of Strikes
Victory Loan Spurts.

Optimism is the keynote Of recent
comment. as reflected in leading per-
iodicals and the remarks OF promi-
nent men. A strong undercurrent OF
faith in the outlook was evident
throughout the winter. Now the be-
lief grows that early predictions are
soon 10 be fulfilled. Federal reserve
agents report increasing confidence
and greater activity. The west and
south are sanguine, and look for
ward 10 unusual expansion. Bust
ness failures have reached their low
est point in history.
The labor situation is still critical,
owing to the prevalence of strikes,
and the almost implacable attitude
OF union labor in some cases. The
railroads constitute another Difficult
ty OF the moment. They present one
of the chief problems with which
congress must deal. Great satisfac-
ton is expressed that Pres't Wilson
called the extra session for so early
d date. The railway deficit has
grown alarmingly and the roads are
penniless. Business expects more
from this new congress than its
predecessor, and feels that condt-
tons will improve once the country
regains congressional and admins
trative guidance.
Credit Not OvertaXed.
The Victory loan spurted as usual
toward the end. and the amount
banking and investment interests
will have to absorb is much smaller
than was at first anticipated, if it is
not altogether extinguished. Credit
facilities will not now be overtaxed,
as they might otherwise have been
reacting upon business. The banks
will be more free TO buy up future
issues of treasury certificates.
Representatives Of the railroad
administration and steel men dead
locked again on Thursday, and total
abandonment of the attempt 10 stab
ilize prices is the natural outcome.
A return TO open market conditions
has been prophecied for some time.
The industrial board will soon pass
out OF existence unless there is a
SuQQGn reversal OL the SAAudtAOAAs
Meantime, the pig iron and steel
market is very sluggish with little
new business. Fifty-four blast fur
naces blew out last month, leaving a
total Of PIP in operation, as com
pared with 372 last September.
Raw Materials Active.
Business in raw material other
than steel and copper shows fair i'm
provement. Lumbeg, sugar. tobacco
and more especially leather and tex
tiles, are fairly active. The machin-
cry trade and pottery continue dull.
Chemicals are s~ub-nOrmal, and the
demand for electrical equipment is
restricted. Inquiries, however, gain
volume.
With increasing evidence that
Germany will sign 'on the dotted
line" foreign trade begins &c fulfil
long cherished expectations. Japan
csc, Italian, Greek, ROumanian, and
Polish agents, not to mention those
Of other countries. are making over
lures for credit and throwing out
lines TO the trade. Business interests
are rapidly making plans for a re
turn TO pre-war trade conditions.

GRAIN.

Corn and oats moved i'm an err
ratio manner under the influence Of
contradictory factors. Sharp gains
were followed by recessions. The
general tone was fairly weak and
marked by hesitation and uncer-
tainty. The government report on
winter wheat and rye exerted bear
ish influence, but settlement Of the
Argentine port strike received less
consideration than might have been
expected. UnfavOrable weather has

LIVESTOCK.

New high record for hogs fea-
tured the livestock market Top
prices Wednesday were $21.55 and
average $21.21. Provision futures
did not respond to the upturn.
Larger receipts than had been ex-
pected enabled packers TO force a
break of 25 TO 40c on Thursday,
which was continued with good
measure on Friday. Soaring hog
prices did not materially affect corn.
Cattle trade was uneven and prices
tended downward. Demand for
calves improved, but sheep and
lambs were slow and weak for the
most part.

Trend of the Markets


STOCKS-Announcement of an
early extra session of congress. actual
submission Of the peace treaty with
a multitude Of drastic terms to the
German delegates, and distinct i'm
provement in several leading indus
tries gave the stock market abound
ing strength and evoked another
outburst Of speculative enthusiasm.
While many professionals are eau
tiOus. the outside public now DOM
mates the market. It's buying pow
ec seems weIl-nigh inexhaustible, and
its conviction that an era of pros
perity impends-a confidence reflect
ed in active buying-continues I'M
abated. Nevertheless, there is much
genuine investment buying. and
brokerage loans have not been
overeXtended.
Bearish traders remark a dispar-
ity of values, and point out that new
international treaties have yet TO be
formulated, wen after the initial
peace treaty is signed. They wisely
urge that highly speculative issues
be lightly held. Well-informed opin-
in hint at 1000, 600 and even $780,
O%0O-share days before the present
wave has spent its strength. Interest
attaches 10 the recent increase of
brokerage commissions endorsed by
the board of governors. May 3 was
the 29th milliOn-share day Of the
year. and the 18th consecutive day
when sales totalled hat amount.
The brokers are overWorked. and
maybe underpaid.
GRAIN-Record high prices and
some unfavorable weather induced
buying Of grain, but this influence
was nor than overcome by the re-
straint which julius Barnes's an
nOuncements have laid Mr. Barnes
has darkly limited at the food admin
istration's power to stop trading in
futures. and openly resists ascending
prices for wheat and flour and corn.
The effect has been depressing and
prices have betrayed weakness, drop
ping as much as f cents in one day.
Nillers are less 10 buy wheat.
The relative weakness OF rye is n
other bearish factor. Canada's wheat
holdings on March 81 were III, 00O,-
0O1 bushels, compared with 1900
600 last year. The grain acreage
this year will equal last year and
seeding has progressed f%avorably.
LINESTOCK-HOgs touched new
high points during the week. Some
grades sold above $22. Receipts the
first two days were Sc, 900 less than
a week ago. A record number of
breeding soWs April 1-9, $40, 600
augurs well for the future, but l.

Moore Hit With
Open Hand And
Loses Decision

According to information from
England, Pal Moore, the Memphis
bantam, Twas decided against by
Referee Coyrl because Of violation
Of the English heSinu rule prohibit
Ina the strlklnu Of blows with the
open glove. II Is declared that
Corrl warned Moore In the tenth
round, and II was this offense that
cost Moore the victory. corrl did
not d~lsauallfy Moore, as he could
have done under the rules, but
named Wilde the winner on points.
Only one warning Is said to have
been plven to Moore about the open
glove offense. despite the fact that
II has been the custom OF Enullsh
referees to warn an offender three
times and d~lsquallfy for the fourth
violation.
In the absence Of an official state.
mont from Corrl, II appears that he
decided In Wllde's favor on points,
although the real basis for the do.
clsion was Moore's violation OF
rules. BY this decision the impress.

merits as a boxer, although all re-
ports agree that the Briton. was de-

cabled comments on the bout are
as follows;
Moore outpolnted the British fIy.
weight champion, but repeatedly
struck him with open gloves.
Refree corrl cautioned him In the
tenth. This cost him the Victory.
The verdict went to Wilde on
points. In the last five rounds
Wilde was bleeding at the mouth
and nose, but he hung on and forced
the fight, though Moore landed
freely.
\ "Moore's best rounds were the
sixteenth and seventeenth, when he
walloped Wilde all over the 'rihu.
Wilde came back In the twentieth
round, showing a burst Of speed
and taking the offensive. Wilde
missed frequently In the last 10
rounds and left tho ring nearly eS.

toward the end OF the bout to knock
out his agile opponent, but Wilde
evaded him"

which an English referee can dis
