MOTOR INDUSTRY
|SMORE CHEERFUL
Sales at Steadier Levels,
inventories Declared
in Good Shape.
BY DAVID J. WILKIE.


DETROIT, July 9.-The motor car
industry correctly may be said to be
marking time" as 1t gets into the
second half of 1888
That the year thus far has been
one of disappointment to producer
and distributor Is admitted by heads
Of both manufacturing and merchan-
dising divisions. 1t Is significant,
however, that actually there is less
gloom among the makers and sellers
Of motor vehicles than at any time
during the last seven or eight months.
Several Factors Cited.
This may be explained by citing
several factors vital to the health of
the industry:
Retail sales have continued at
steadier level into the summer than
most producers and distributors ex-
pected; the merchandising division
has It's inventories in good shape:
production has been controlled en-
tirely by consumer requirement and
the used-car load is causing less irri-
tAtion.
All this. say authoritative observers,
means that when the 1889 selling sea-
son gets under way the dealers will
not be burdened with overstocks of
current models. Many will still have
more secondhand vehicles than they
want. but dealer association executives
believe that any improvement in car
demand will be felt in the used-car
market as we'll as in factory deliveries.
Efforts to Bs Rewarded.
1t is an interesting tradition OF the
motor car industry that it always has
worked its way out Of the slumps
largely through its own efforts. The
industry's leaders claimed that motor
car manufacturing and distribution
figured to a great degree in the up
turn that began in 1885 and reached
its top with an output of 100000
cars and trucks last year.
These same authorities while dis
avowing any thoughts OF another
5000. .000-unit year in the immediate
future, say that the brakes they placed
upon production and the continued
drive against used car accumulations
will be rewarded in the better posi-
ton of both maker and dealer when
new models begin coming from as
sembly lines in preparation for the
1899 campaign. Ohhcially. the 1889
drive starts with the National Auto
mobile Show in New York next No.

LONDON. July 9-Thanks both to
factual and fanciful influences. the
first week Of the new account in the
London securities market has been
distinctly cheerful.
Continuance of the upward move
ment of prices, despite substantial
roflt-taking, Is a significant indica-
ton of the healthiness OF the tech
nical position, while the continued
firmness here throughout the week
suggests that London is not relying
alone on Wall Streets lead
Impetus was given to the upward
movement by the more reassuring
views of the European political situa-
ton. including stronger hope that a
solution Of the Spanish dificulty will
be reached Also. settlement of the
Austrian German loans question is ex-
pected to contribute toward political
aEpeasement. the markets satisfaction
with the loans agreement being ex-
pressed in a somewhat spectacular rise
in prices Of the securities concerned.
There was strong buying in midweek
of British government bonds, sup
ported by the large financial houses,
with evidence of substantial exchanges
from short to long dated stocks, stimu-
lated by rumors of an early Anglo.
American trade pact involving cur
rency stabilization and settlement Of
the war debts question. The rise Of
gilt-edged securities was led by the
war loan 3las. which touched l037s
the highest this year Kafiir gold
shares, particularly the dividend-pay-
ers. were also encouraged by the
stabilization talk, and there were
heavy purchases of dollars, partly At
tributable to rumors that the sterling.
dollar rate would be stabilized 1T g. IS,
although these rumors were discred-
ited In well-informed banking circles
here.

Mrs. Josephine Lippke, 45, of 27 High street, surrendered at police headquarters today on warrant charging her with manslaughter.

Applicants To Be Questioned
 Here Tuesday
Notices Sent 52 Women
 to Report at City Hall for Examination

Interviews will be given 51 women applicants at 9:30 o'clock Tuesday at the aldermanic chamber, City Hall, for WPA work. Miss Lucy Holabird, from the office of Ad- ministrator Vincent J. Sullivan. New Haven, will conduct the interviews.
 While not all of the women are expected to be placed, the state has been authorized to put on 5000 ad- ditional WPA workers, due to the recent increased appropriation of $25O, O,000 000 for relief work. Numer- ous men are applying to the welfare department for placement on the WPA rolls but the time of their in- terviews had not been set today.
 While Waterbury, normally, would share in the state increase of jobs by about one-fifth, due to the in- dustrial makeup here, there is doubt expressed whether sufficient projects will be available. The po- sition of Controller Sherwood L. Rowland in the matter of appro- priations for city part in the WPA work has produced a threat that several of the projects contemplat- ed will not be attempted.
 At present, about 1900 persons are on the Waterbury WPA rolls. Va rious city boards are attempting to devise means whereby the projects providing the greatest number of jobs take precedence over others, regardless of the condition of the work involved, approved but not started, or recently started.
