In the mining shares, outside
of a az point drop in Newmont

RAIL EARNINGS
GAIN EXPECTED

In spite of the admitted uncer
tainties as to traffic, wages, rates
and pensions, there appears good
reason to look for a marked i'm
provement in railroad earnings
this year, observes the Standard
Statistics Company.
Although strikes in steel and
other industries, which have re-
duced railroad traffic in recent
weeks, may extend into the sec.
ond. half year, prospects for rail
road traffic generally are not I'm
favorable, the report said. The
level of taffic through the remain.
der of the year will depend largely
on the two factors of industrial
labor relations and farm crops, it
was pointed out. The survey
added:
Gas to the labor situation, it
is obviously too early to tell how
soon a settlement can be
reached, but there may well be
a release of dammed-up business
when production is resumed in
Strike-b0und plants, and there is
reason to hope for a consider
able increase in movement of in
dustriaI raw materials and man.
ufactured products later in .he
year. 1t is significant that, lie
spite the effect of strikes, traf-
fic thus far in June has held
ahnua 1925 IavoISO
- The Federal Crop Reporting
Board looks for a 25 per cent in
crease in winter wheat this year,
while private estimates point to a
gain of nearly 100 per cent in
spring wheat. Other crops are
generally in correspondingly i'm
proved condition, although the out
look can change substantially be-
fore crops are harvested. the re.
