WILLING
To MD COUNTY

After sitting quietly by while
rpractically everyone else had some-
thing to say about their proposal
to erect packing plant in Ar.
lington county, officials OF the n.
Auth Provision Company yesterday
issued q statement in which they
express q desire to cooperate with
residents of the county and to do
nothing that would injure the
beauty of the lanscape or lower
the values of property, or other
wise disturb the community.
"Our company has considered an
invitation To erect packing house
on It's PROPERTIES situated near
Relee. OH Columbia Pike, in Ar
lington county. Va" the statement
opened, but, due to a misunder-
standing, OF the facts surrounding
the establishment of such a plant,
1t appears that some opposition to
the project has been developed.
The N Auth Provision Company
Is q Washington institution. Its Of
ficers are Washingtonians. They and
the company, have always assisted
in every possible way in the upbuild-
ing and beautifying OF the commun-
ity. They and the company are in
tensely interested in maintaining
our city and its environs in keeping
with the dignity OF the Nations
Capital.
Their long experience in the pack.
ing industry qualities them to state
that the modern packing plant which
they intend to erect would in no
way prove Objectionable to the res
identss OF that city or OF Arlington
County.
Our application for q permit to
erect the proposed packing house
will be presented to the board Of
supervisors OF Arlington County on
April IS. and the public Is assured
that any such offers submitted to
us before that date will have careful
and earnest consideration" the
statement concludes. II

Street in the face OF heavy months
end calling OF loans by the New
York banks, furnished ample evi.
dence of the strong position of the
financial markets and continued
confidence Of the bulls In the
stock market" e
There was no disposition on the7
part Of the bulls TO defy the Fed

its repeated warnings about the
ballooning OF speculative credit In 2
the stock market" That much was
plainly seen in the shaving down of
the proportion OF borrowed money
in the purchase price of active
stocks all over the board; but the
stock market could not get away
from the tremendously profitable
condition OF important branches Of
American industry, as exhibited In
the earnings statements and the
boosting of dividend on the we'll
known copper, steel and railroad
shares.

dences of the substantial financial
position of American industry ever
seen in any period. frightened by

warning relative to the steady. .ex-
pansion of the use of hank credit
in stock speculation, many small
holders of stock had been forced to
throw their stocks overheard and
the beginning Of new bear market
was hailed from a distance by those
who had taken a discouraging atti-
tude toward the market.
Steel Mills Busy
But with the continued expansion
of American business and the in-
crease in net earnings and dividends,
financial experts recognized that
there were few. it any. Of the
factors in the situation necessary to
usher in a falling market for stocks.
The steel mills are producing at the
greatest rate in 10 years: copper pro-
ducers are making more money
than at any time since the end Of
the war; automobile production in
the first quarter of 1899 is at the
highest rate in history for that
period: the textile industry is turn

tions, and American labor is well

Street of Illusion
Dittmann Attraction

Columbia's THE Street OF TIlu-
sion," which is to be the attraction
at the Dittraann Sunday, pre-
sentS an unusual character study Of
a youth who becomes so egotiStical
that he drives friends and success
from him. Students Of psychology
will find much food for thought in
the production and the man or wo-
man who is not getting the most
out of life in the way of happiness
and success may find the solution
in The Street of Illusion"
The plot revolves around the the
atre showing the lives Of players at
work and at rest. The course Of a
Broadway play from the selection
Of the script through the casting,
rehearsals. and staging 70 the open
ing night are graphically pictured.
Virginia Valli portrays the lead
ing wGnan. She is typical OF q
number Of Broadway players. Ian
Keith has a role that Is exacting
and exceptionally trying. He de-
lineates an actor, who stands in the
way Of his own success, a man fill
ed with envy, malice and bitter
ness. These emotions turn an
otherwise likeabie fellow into a
monster more animal than human
"a whining, snarling, swapping
thing, whom to know is to avoid.
Gradually the creature awakens
to the fact that all about him IS
tinsel and Illusion. This makes
him all the more ferocious for he
feels that others are experiencing
a happiness Shich for him is Inn
possible.
How the man overcomes the ami
NAL within him and learns that
the world he has been living in *
one OF his own m~aking-the result
Of his own thinking furnishes the
theme of a tense dramatic photo
