from a week ago. A year ago
operations were at A per cent,
two years ago at "a per cent, and
three years ago at Al per cent.
Repairs forced at some plants
by a period of near capacity
operations account in part for
the decrease in ingot production.
although new orders have de-
clined sharply, particularly for
steel going to the automobile
industry. Miscellaneous demands
for steel continue to hold up and

Each valley lodge is preparing
to present a written demand for
recognition of the union to the
management of the plant in
which it is organized. The steel
companies are prepared to resist
all demands for recognition.
June 10 has been set ten
tatively by labor leaders as the
date on which an answer to
their demands must be filed by
the steel companies and June 20
the date on which a general steel

JAPAN'S CLOT TIL
EXPORTS DIP

Commenting on the competi-
ton between British and JAP
anese exporters of cotton goods,
and the, fact that the British
colonies have been authorized to
fix import quotas for Japanese
goods, the New York Cotton Ex-
change Service says it is not ex-
pected that this action will affect
materially the total volume of
japanese cloth exports, since the
amount of the annual cloth ex-
ports from Japan to the British
colonies has been relatively small,
and Japan hopes to offset these
losses, by increased exports else
where. The service says:
Japanese exports of cotton
cloth registered a decline dur
ing April from the record high
level reached in March, but the
decline was about in line with
March to April. April cloth ex-
ports tOtaIed 193, 100000 square
yards as compared with 223,-
100000 in March and 162,OOO,-
900 in April last year. April
exports were 1875 per cent less
than in March, but were 1871
per cent larger than in April
last year.
"TOtal japanese cloth exports
during the nine months of this
season from August / to April
30 were about the same as dur
ing the corresponding portion
of last season. During the first
part of this season, cloth ex-
ports ran somewhat below last
season, due in large measure to
the high Indian tariff on JAP
anese cotton cloth. Since mod
ificatiOn of Indian duties, how
ever, japanese cloth exports
have regained practically all of
their early-SeaSOn losses. August
April exports aggregated 1864
100000 square yards as against
1,667, 100000 in the correspond
ing portion of last season.
"TOtal British cloth exports
during the nine months of this
season from August l to April
30 aggregated 1,464,OOO,OOO
square yards, as against 1885,
100000 during the correspond
ing portion of last season."

NEW YORK SET
FOR TAX DRIVE

New York State hopes to col
lect $5,S00,O00 additional income
as a result of a special tax drive
which will get underway next
week when 40 men under the di-
rection of Mark Graves, commits
sioner of taxation and finance,
begin checking up on licensed
liquor establishments in New York
city which so far have paid no
State beverage taxes.
OF the 10000 such establish
ments, Commissioner Graves said,
only 2,700 have made returns.
He explained, however, that pos
sibly only 1000 or 5000 of the
1900 remainder owe the State
taxes, since such taxes are due
from retailers only if liquor sold
by them has been obtained from
foreign countries or from other
States. If manufactured in New
York, the tax is collected at the
manufacturing or blending source.
The commissioner expressed
the belief, however, that around
$2,5OO,O0O would be collected as a
result of the drive which will be
on for more than four months.
Also, to coordinate the activi-
ties of this department, field
agents will be on the lookout for
sales tax and income tax evaders.
Later, a special effort will be
made to collect such taxes. Com
missioner Graves hopes to obtain
another $2,50O,0OO on the income
tax drive, and 100000 more on
sales taxes.
Sales tax elinquents discovered
since a year ago have numbered
29,700. Motor fuel tax 0ollec-
tions are coming in quite COM
pletely without the necessity of a
special campaign at this time,

bined operating loss of $86,956.36,
together with net surplus adjust
ments of $18,518.23, resulted in a
total loss for the year 1888 Of
$1O5, ,474.89. These results COM
pare with an operating loss in
1884 of 5,4O9.44, which. to-
gether with net surplus adjust

loss for the year 1882 OF $780,
1895.
During the last months Of 1888
the operations of the company
and its subsidiaries, reflecting the
general improvement in business
conditions, were carried on at a
profit, which served to reduce the
operating losses sustained in the
earlier months of the year, with
the result that the loss sustained
for the year 1888 is substantially
less than the annual loss Of each

much change. Lewis H"ney
It is even possible that a second
nry" reaction may occur. In the
latter case, it would not seem
likely to amount too much nor
break the recent lows.
Unless the Presidents silver
message leans back strongly in
the direction Of conservatism and
sound money, would expect a
further rise of two or three points
before serious resistance and a
secondary reaction.
Tn.Smy attitude may be de-
DcrfbLd as leaning moderately to
the bullish side, subject to the un-
Rvoidable uncertainties Of politics.
NV reasons are partly technical,
and partly broader and more gen.
eral. AS to the market actor" :"
I note the following points:
The volume of trading has
fallen to very low levels, after a
considerable decline accompanied
hy some evidence of climax selling.
It has declined during the slight
weakness of Friday and Saturday.
The market has held and stabil-
lzed at almost exactly the logical
lower resistance which I had con-
Sidered likely.
The rally has been based on Sc
feCtive buying and holding which
shows a rational appraisal Of &C"
tual conditions.
The issues in which there was
D possibility Of technical weakness,
held well on Saturday. The old
line "leaders" showed relative
strength.
The activity Saturday was
rather heavily concentrated IN a
few stocks, a majority Of which
showed advances.
More broadly considered, one
may say that the averages are
now only at about the general
level Of the past year, and the
question arises, why should they
now sell lower than that? To
be sure, the drought and abnOr"
NAL weather conditions cOnstf-
tute o. new unfavOrable factor
affecting some stocks, but the
backbone of this new deal bull
market has been initiation and
the drought is not going to
weaken that. Rather the con-
trary.
Certainly the move toward sill
yer greatly increases the possibili-
ties Of currency depreciation, and
postpones the day when we can
hope for q return to a definite
standard of value. The whole
scheme centers in the idea OF
paying more for silver than it is
worth, in order to cheaper our
money.
But as business recedes the urge
TO "do something" increases, and
as Government spending and debt
grow, the temptation to debase
the money grows too. So infla'
tion is still in the picture.
At the same time, we find the
new dealers not quite so cocksure
about their NRA and other
policies Of regimentation. The
President himself shows more
hesitation.
The new dealers have run
up against three natural
phenomena which jolt their
idealistic schemes. One is the
drought sent by nature. Another
is the blight Of mOnopOliStic
greed shown under many
''cOdes." Still another is the
dust storm of organized labOr'S
demands. The last two come
all their efforts they see that
from "human nature" Despite
"'the flag is still there" The
flag of American common sense
and individual initiative. And
they SEQ the fall elections
ahead.
My point is that before sum-
1ner ends, the Washington kaleid-
oScope may show a combination
Of ID initiation and (2) softpedal.
ing business batting, which would
be quite bulliSh marketwiSe.
