WAGE AND HOUR
PROPOSALS MILD
Most Industries Have Met
Standards, but Textiles
May Be Affected.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK. May 29-In its week
ly summary of the general business
situation. the Standard Statistics Co.
Of New York currently comments as
follows:
THE administration proposed wage
and hour legislation Is comparatively
mild and it is not expected to have
an important effect on sentiment or
industrial operations. There are few
industries that do not already meet
the requirements as to minimum
wages and maximum hours Of labor
which are likely to be adopted. Elm
ination Of child labor likewise would
impose no hardships on industry gen.
orally. and socially is to be desired.
Probably the only industry which
would be affected to any marked de-
gree Is textiles. Even in this trade
many companies are still adhering to
the N. r. A. standards, and general
working conditions are on q con-
siderably higher plane than they
were several years ago. However. a
few branches Of the textile trade will
doubtless fall under the wage and
hour and child labor provisions 1t is
also possible that adjustments will
have to be made by certain retail
trade organizations.
Broadly viewed, the Black Connery
costs of industry generally will be little
affected If the measure is enacted,
and few trades would be forced to
change their methods of operation.
The achief adverse implication Of the
proposal is that it might set up bu-
reaucracy which eventually might at
tempt to obtain strong control over
prices, competition and other general
business practices
Meanwhile, although aggregate in
dustrial activity is continuing to hold
at around the best levels of the year,
there are signs that few industries
are beginning to feel the effects of a
seasonal recession in demand. The
cotton textile industry. for example,
has been tapering of operations slowly
for a number of weeks. There has
been a gradual change from three to
two shift day, and few smaller mills
have closed down completely. The in
dustry, however, has sufficient orders
on hand to prevent more than a slow
recession in activity over the next
month or more.
Demand for steel also has fallen
of in recent weeks, but the industry
still enjoys heavy backlog of orders
The trade consensus is that third
quarter operations will average in the
IS per cent to 80 per cent range. which
would be highly satisfactory. the sea-
son Of the year considered"

INDUSTRY MAPS
NEW FINANCING
FOR EXPANSION
Long-Expected Movement
Starts and Is Expected
to Gain Momentum.
FS the Associated Press,

CHICAGO, May 29.-The Invest
ment Bankers Association said today
the swing toward industrial financing
for expansion purposes. trend long
anticipated In the money market,
was under way and likely to gain
momentum.
Refinancing operations have pre-
dominated in the money market dur
ing the recovery period until recently,
it declared. Demand for new work.
ing capital now is reappearing in In
creasing volume.
Karl Weisheif, chairman Of the
association Industrial Securities
Committee, issued an interim report
covering the six-month period ending
March 81 during which 63 per cent
of the aggregate proceeds of all in
dustrial financing, exclusive OF utilities
and railroads, represented new capital.
In the first nine months Of 1896, he
said, only 80 per cent was for new
capital.
The report said a number OF ele-
ments working toward the increase
of new money financing may continue
for some time.
Foremost among these is, the
necessity for more production facilities
caused by rising demand, development
of new products and processes, and
the normal capital goods replacement
that accumulated during depression
years
"Of more recent origin is the fact
that the financing of inventories is
requiring larger amounts of capital.
Expanding sales and production are
necessitating greater physical volume
Of inventory, and, at the same time,
commodity prices have been showing
a strong upward tendency which has
been interrupted only in the last few
weeks.
'Interwoven with the problem OF
obtaining funds for plant expansion
and working capital Is the effect of
the tax on undistributed earnings
which tends to discourage the use
Of earnings for such purposes and
hence to stimulate public financing"
The committee anticipated contin-
uation Of new offerings in good volume,
the report said. 1t added that sit
down strikes have been a disturbing
factor and constituted one of the
reasons behind the stalemate Of March
and April in the new issue market.
The report stressed the recent pre-
dominance of common stock financing
for industrial corporations. During
the six-month period ending March
81 common stocks issued aggregated
nearly Al per cent of all new industrial
issues.

MACHINERY TRADE
CONTINUES TO GAIN
Favorable Sales and Profits
Trend Revealed by
Poor's Survey.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, May 29.-Manufac-
turers of industrial machinery and
machine tools are continuing the IA
vorable sales and earnings trends ex-
perienced in the opening months OF
1897, according to a new report in
Poor's Industry and Investment Sur
veys.
The machine tool orders index
reached a new peak in April. 10 per
cent above the previous high recorded
in December, 1896; 80 per cent over
March, 1897, and more than 100 per
cent higher than in April, 1886.
Moreover, domestic orders ac-
counted for the major part of the in
crease" states the report. The i'm
mediate outlook for machine tool
business remains encouraging, de-
spite the fact that sales cannot be
expected to remain at the extremely
high levels currently prevailing. OBJ
viously, the need for replacing obso-
lete machinery and tools no longer
is so pressing as in the early stages
Of business recovery. However, ma
chinery and machine tool buying has
been given new impetus by the higher
labor costs incident to labor victories
in recent months.
LAS far as producers Of Diesel en-
gines are concerned, the long-term
outlook remains promising. As yet
the Diesel engine appears only in its
infancy. It is quite possible that
eventually it will be used extensively
in the automobile and railroad indus
tries, as we'll as for the present gen.
eral industrial purposes.

DROP IN COTTON
CARRY-0VER SEEN
World Supply of American
Staple Expected to Sag
100000 Bales.
Py the Associated Press.

Ry the Associated Press
The Agriculture Department pre-
dicted yesterday the world carry-over
OF American cotton at the end of
this season would be 1000 900 bales
less than on August /, last year,
when it was $685. 900 bales.
This forecast came from the Bureau
Of Agricultural Economics in its
monthly survey of world cotton con-
ditions.
The bureau said recent price de-
clines of American cotton in both
domestic and foreign markets had
placed American cotton in a more
favorable price relationship to COM
petitive foreign groWths.
This may encourage foreign spin
ners to use larger amounts of Ameri-
can cotton, the bureau said
1t reported a substantial decline in
sales of cotton goods by domestic
manufacturers during the last few
weeks. although mill consumption has
continued relatively high after esab-
fishing record the first nine months
Of this season.
The bureau said prices of American
cotton had averaged near Is cents q
pound in recent weeks. decline ot
nearly 2 cents from the peak late ir
March, but about li2 cents above the
peak last season. in May, 1886
Foreign mill consumption also has
been at record levels this season, the
bureau said. with high consumption OF
foreign cotton at the expense OF
American.
