FURTHER BUSINESS GAINS
CONFIDENTLY PREDICTED
Car Loadings, CoaA Shipments and
Farmers Purchasing Power
Among Factors.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 6.-Practi-
cally all the available indices Of busi-
ness activity point to continuation
during the present week of the ten
dency toward revival. Car loadings
for the week ended October 81 to-
tailed 1904 900 cars. which means that
for all practical purposes the rail-
roads now are equaling the greatest
performance in the country's history.
In addition. it is pointed out in
financial circles, that the latest load
ing returns show an unprecedented
movement of general merchandise.
Coal shipments have. / tbs true, con-
tributed to recent gains. and pro-
duction of 100000 tons of bitumi-
nous a week is being maintained.
Nevertheless. the gain in the move
ment of other kinds of freight has
been even greater and has beaten
all records.
Steel production is being well MAIN
tanned. although the rush to buy.
which followed the strikes. has now
disappeared. Output probably ex
sumption, on account of railroad and
construction enterprise, and shows no
signs Of falling off.
Automobile production also remains
remarkably good, OctoberS total eX-
ceeding September's by approximately
20 per cent. Reports from the textile
districts also are favorable, the mills
finding that recent advances in prices
have not had an adverse effect on
demand. Even the mail order houses.
which are dependent largely on farm
purchasing power. show encourag-
ing gains during October as COM
pared with year ago. the two chief
companies reporting increases of
about 10 and 80 per cent respectively.
That farmers purchasing power
should be measurably Increased is
indicated by recent gains in the
/ prices of farm products. December
wheat rose during the past week to
over $1.17 bushel. which is ap-
proXimately 20 per cent above the re-
cent low. and the same delivery of
cotton finally mounted to above csc
a pound The latter price is the
best since the great break of 1920.
and it is well over twice the low
price of last year.
Similarly Dun's index of bread
stufs prices. which stood at point
90 per cent above the 1913 average
on September ]. had risen to 81 per
| cent above on November I. Largely
as result of increases in farm
products Dun's index of the total
value rose 3.S per cent during Octo-
Der. this being the largest gain since
the decline in prices terminated in
1921. The index now stands 81 per
cent above the prewar. as compared
with last years low of 80 per cent
In response to more active trade.

probable that the personnel will be
the same as last year, with hyron

The loss OF eight veterans this year
will be keeply FELT. However, much

the end position, Deaver, Human,
Blair, Lincoln and Luman will be back;
tackles, Diller, Joss, Queale and Miller;
the guard position will have only one
veteran, Pillsbury. though it is thought
that Lufkin may ably Gil the other
position. The backheld will have q
strong aggregation TO line up. AZ

Be available.

Baseball Writers
Move to Ignore
Tvs Johnson Hill

At the meeting Of the Baseball Writ
ers' Association Of America, held at the
Commodore yesterday. the question Of
upholding the official scorer in the mat
ter Of the famous hit that put Ty Cobb
in the 400 class, came up for action
and considerable debate. The New
York chapter presented a resolution re-
Gently adopted in which the president
Of the American League was severely
scored for changing the official verdict.
The New York baseball scribes asked
the national body 10 ratify its action
and stand on the matter, which was
done after the president OF the Amer

invitation 20 appear before the meeting
and explain his action in the case. The
motion was carried by the narrow
margin Of to 3, the writers voting by
chapters, with only seven cities repre-
sented. New York. Brooklyn, Boston
and Pittsburgh voted in the Affirmative
and Philadelphia, Cleveland and De-
troit in the negative.
The resolution follows:
"Whereas, the president of the
American League has seen lt 20 ig-
