CAR LOAD|NGS
CAIN EXPECTED

Freight car loadingS in the first
quarter of 1889 are expected to be
about go per cent above actual
loadings in the same quarter in
1888, according to estimates just
compiled by the 13 shippers ad-
yisory boards, and made public to-
day.
On the basis of these estimates,
freight car loadings of the 20 prin-
cipal commodities will be 4,601, ,131
cars in the first quarter of 1899,
compared with 4,185,676 actual
car loadingS for the same com.
modities in the corresponding pc
riod last year.
OF the 13 shippers advisory
boards, all estimate an increase
in car loadings for the first quar-.
ter of 1889, compared with the
same period in the preceding year,
except the Northwest which an.

Building activity greatly in

principal gains are outside the

reason for feeling generally opti-
mistic over conditions for 1889.

taxes.
We await, with a great deal Of
interest, the reports which will
soon be made by experts who have
been studying the tax structure,
reorganization of the local govern
ment and the administration of
relief. Congressional action on
their recommendations will have
an important bearing on the fu-
ture of all local residents.

Postal Business Peak

Christmas business at the Wash
ington Post Office reached an all
time high while other business re-
ports, such as the number of tele-
phone calls, electric output, ETC.,
continued previously Well-defined
upward trends.
Especially significant to Wash,
1ngton interests is the fact that
tow ard the end of 1888 the mum.
ber Of Federal employees in the Dis
trict of Columbia passed the
previous all-time high established
during the World War.
With this increase has come, 1t
is believed, further population
gains. These gains, however, are
probably greater outside the Dis
trict borders of the metropolitan
area than within the Capital city
thus continuing the trend which
has been evident for several years

lie money. The future of the re-
covery trend, of course. will be i'm
portantly affected by political de-
velopments at home and abroad.
Looking at the situation from
the long-range standpoint, the
principal consideration il whether
or not the current 4ecovery will
develop into a movement with a
broad base ana hence result in
more normal business conditions
over a period of time.
There undoubtedly exist the es-
sential fundamentals of a broad
recovery that might well be sus-
tanned. This appears to depend
more upon political developments
here and abroad as affecting the
economy of the various nations
than upon the existing economic
possibilities.
Here the recent election regis
tered a definite rejection of the
extravagant experimentation and
deflationary attitude toward bust.

CAPITAL
MARKET URGED

"The need of the hour is for a
freer and more active private CAPT.
tai market" says T. E. Hough, vice
president, Halsey, Stuart and Com
pany.
Hough wants capital to flow
more readily into business and in
dustrial channels capable of repro
ducing itself.
Capitals timidity, he believes is
due to the Governments failure to
solve economic problems. Grant
ing the need for supervision and
regulation within reasonable
bounds, what the country needs
is the opportunity to work out its
own problems, he asserts.

December Recovery

One of the most significant COM
parsons is made by the figure for
check transactions in the Wash
ington Clearing House.
In November of 1888, such trans
actions amounted to $101, ,236, ,048,
only about $25, 900 less than in the
corresponding month of 1887, after
having run substantially behind
the previous year in each of the
10 months between January and
october.
Retail stores apparently made
sharp gains toward the end of
1888. Department store gains were
especially sharp during December,
and reports to the Department of
Commerce indicate that the
Christmas volume will exceed last
years figure by a noticeable per-
centage.

Recovery This Year

By FRANCIS G. ADDISON, Jr.
President, Washington Board of Trade
An examination of business
statistics for corresponding periods
in 1888 and 1887 gives every indica-
ton that an optimistic viewpoint
for 1889 is in order.
During the closing months OF
1888, business in practically all
lines throughout the Washington
metropolitan area showed sub
Stantial improvement, and in most
cases passed the corresponding fig
ures for 1887.

G.. M. Chief Looks
To Spending to
Aid Business
By ALFRED p. SLOAN, JR.
Chairman Of General Motors

It seems reasonable to expect
that 1889, as a whole, will be a
somewhat better business year
than 1888 has been. This belief
is based on the expectation that
the current recovery movement
will be extended we'll into the new
year. There is an improved de-
mand for consumer goods, perhaps
somewhat accelerated by the eff
fectS of large expenditures of pub

ness enterprise prevalent during
the past few years. It appears to
indicate a trend Of thinking in
of a return to economic
sanity, hence is definitely encour-
aging to the long-range position.
If reflected in constructive
action-and much such action is
possible-and perhaps more par
ticularly in lack Of destructive
action on the part Of the forth
coming Congress, it might be the
beginning of the establishment Of
a real confidence in the broad
future opportunities of business.

dltlonS Will be better IN 1889 than
they were in 1888.
The reasons: Politics look en-
couraging to business men, en-
ployment is much better, produc-
ton is on the increase, and build
ing has gone ahead beyond all
expectations in the last few
months.
There will be be, according to
the Bureau of Labor, a one-third
