FREQUENTLY heard statements to
the effect that business in general
in the United States is not good and
that a decline is setting in are not
borne out by reports from Washing
ton on the transportation of freight.
Here are some of the facts and fig
ureS:
For the third consecutive week and
the fourth time this year, loading of
revenue freight exceeded the million
mark for the week which ended on
June %, the total for the week being
1,OO2.740 cars. Freight loading so far
this year has been the heaviest in his
tory.
The total for the week Of June %
was an increase of 136,419 cars over
the corresponding week last year, and
an increase Of 227. .293 cars over the
corresponding week in 1921. It also ex-
ceeded by wide margin the corre-
spending weeks in 1918, 1919 and 1920
Loading Of merchandise and misceI-
laneous freight amounted to 581, PA
cars. While this was a decrease Of
Alb cars under the preceding week, it
was an increase Of 16,OS5 cars over the
corresponding week in 1922, and an
increase of 112,449 cars over the cor
responding week In 1921.
Loading of grain and grain products
totaled 33,95S cars. This was an In
crease of 55 cars over the week before,
but a decrease of 4,172 cars under the
same week last year, and a decrease
of 5,141 cars under tie same week in
1921.
Livestock loading totaled 29,251
cars, a gain of 100 cars over the pre-
vious week. While this was a decrease
of 662 cars under the corresponding
week last year, it was an increase of
1878 cars over the corresponding week
two years ago.

- OVERNOR AL SMITH Of New
~ York has SHE'D his hat into the
Democratic ring. announcing through
National Committeeman Mack that he
will seek the nomination for the presi-
dency. Mr. Mack said further that he
believed the Democratic platform
would contain plank favoring modi-
fication or liberalizing of the Volstead
act, which, he thought, all the power
full Eastern seaboard states desire. He
added that the great Industrial states
are coming around to the idea that the
national prohibition law is too severe,
and that the Western states that up
hold it are normally Republican.
Senator Underwood Of Alabama, Just
back from a tour Of Europe, declined
to say whether or not he would seek
his party's nomination until he had
consulted with his friends at home.
Late in the month he will address a
special session of the Alabama legis-
lature and probably will then declare
himself. It is said that radical Demo

TN ONE case, and that an important
i one, passive resistance" in the
Ruhr has broken down at last. The
owners and wOrkmen Of the great
Krupp works have signed an agree
ment with the French, whereby the
men continue work ''under French bay
onets." At present 1t applies only to
the plant at Altenessen which the
French have recently occupied and
where they took possession Of 10000
tons Of high-grade metallurgical coal
as the quota due from the Krupp
works on the reparations account.
Only the communists refused to sign
the agreement, which their organ de-
nounces as "a severe and perhaps de-
ciSive blow against passive resistance"
Under the arrangement the French
agree to keep the troops as incon-
barbed wire defenSes, to remove coal
over a specified route and to hear COM
plants against the troops from the
workers council. Herr Won Bulow,
acting head Of the Krupp works,
signed the pact for the owners.
1t is asserted other prominent Ger
man industrial magnates have opened
negotiations with the French railway
officials for the shipment of their prod
ucts by the lines the French are oper-
atlng.
This agreement taken with the re-
ported prospect of a Franco-German
accord over reparations, somewhat
minimizes the Importance Of the
threatened break between Great Brit
ain and France. Lord Curzon, having
demanded from France specific state
ment of their demands on Germany,
received only verbal reply from Am
bassador de st. Aulaire, which on some
points was not sufficiently definite to
suit the British. The same fault was
found with statement made by Baron
Moncheur, the Belgian ambassador,
who made 1t clear that Belgium still
backed up France on the principal is
sues Of the controversy. There was to
be further conversation among the
statesmen in London, and meanwhile
1t was given out that If the British
government should decide on an inde-
pendent German policy it must be au-
khorized by parliament. Premier Bald
win insists upon this.
Pope Plus, finding that his letter to
Cardinal Gasparri was arousing in
tense resentment IN France, regafned
his balance by sending a measure to
the papal nuncio in Munich protesting
against the acts Of sabotage in the
Ruhr under the guise of passive re-
sistance and urging the German gov
ernment to condemn such criminal re-
sistance" He reaffirmed his desire for
peaceful settlement of the reparations
problem, but insisted that Germany
make every possible effort to fulfill her
obligations. This smoOthed down
Frances ruffled fur and stirred Berlin
to reply and to action of a sort. Chan
cellor Cuneo said that measures would
