BI'SINESS and THE OUTLOOK.
Philadelphia Record.
Not only is there better sentiment as
to the prospects iu business, but some
netual gains in trade are noted in last
week's reviews. Xot everything is of
this character as we approach the period
of midsummer dullness in many indus
ijjries. yet there are straws that show
how prevailing winds are blowing. In
the Xorthwesf. where crop failures
brought about bank troubles and general
distress to the population not so many
months ago. the Great Xorthern Rail
road has just financed among the far
mers a 50-mile extension iu Montana
with subscriptions ranging from S2OO
to SSOOO. which is considered a remark
able achievement. In the local field the
John K. Stetson Company an nouncod
last week that it had received from a
single customer an order for nearby 62.-
000 hats, amounting to $356,000. repre
senting the largest single order ever
placed with that company.
Employment conditions continue fair
ly satisfactory in virtually all sections
of Pennsylvania, according to reports
made to the f'nited States Department
of Labor. A slight recession in iron and
steel is netted, hut in the majority of
plants employment ;s not much changed
except in the bituminous regions of the
central and western counties of the
State. Employment in the anthracite
regions shows only a slight improve
ment, a large number of miners being
without vrorlf-
Dun's review of conditions says that
despite the existing it regularities and
the fact that results in some quarters
have been disappointing, business as a
whole is in a more favorable jmsition
titan was the case a year ago. when a
retrograde movement was in progress.
Although farm work and the develop
ment of crops have been impeded by the
backward spring, which has- also re
tarded retail distribution, reports from
the West and Xorthwest reveal more
clearly tlte constructive influence of the
improved financial conditions in agri
cultural sections. A soe-sawing in price
levels continues in the markets. I ..‘lst
week there were 26 advances and 32 de
clines. The previous week recorded a
majority of advances for the first time
since January.
Tile slowing down of iron ami steel
production continues after a record out
put for the three-months' period be
ginning with January. The feature of
the week’s development appeared to be
an effort at Stabilization of prices of
steel products at current levels. After
the failure of the effort to mark up the
prices of these products a diminished
demand resulted in a softening of
prices, even with unchanged quotations.
A cut in prices in order to stimulate
business did not result as anticipated

Activity in the building trades has held
structural steel at a high level. The
automobile industry is calling for a
considerable quantity of material, and,
improvement is found in the agri- '
cultural implement trade. Railroads are
in the market for needed supplies, and
the oil tank demand is increased.
The cotton market last week showed
an upward trend and firmness, in cote
Hast with the movement in recent, pre
ceding weeks. Drought complaints from
South Texas augmented a feeling that;
the declines of a week ago had discount
ed the comparatively high end of May
condition figures. Active curtailment, as
suggested recently by the National
1 Council of American Cotton Manu
facturers. lias been begun by New Eng
' land cotton cloth mills.and still fur
ther Curtailment will result uuless there
is a decided'improvement. It is said that
the chief cause of ourtnilmojif lies in the
unwillingness of the distributor to take
the risk of buying goods ahead. With the
possibility of still lower cotton prices.
The wool market is more active anil
; Miner. The wool situation in England
: is reported to be improved. It had been
stated that no private trading would be
allowed in Australia, but at Melbourne
the market has been open, with only
small sales, on account of the firmness
in quoted prices.
The Chicago grain markets continue
to show wide fluctuations, with alter
nate advances and declines. The week
closed with lighr operations anil final
prices higher and firm, due to weather

JN AND ABOUT THE (3TY j j
TO ISSUE NEW LICENSE
FOR AUTOS JUNE 15TH 1
Sub-Station Here Has Received License'
Tags And Is Getting Things lined Up
For Big Rush.
H. W. Blanks, secretary of the Y'.j
M. C. A. and the Chamber of Commerce. *
aud his secretary. Mies Lucy Richmond
Lentz, are getting things ready now for j
the issuance of new State auto license'
tags beginning June 15th. The tags
were received several days ago but the
law says they canno be issued until the
fifteenth of next month.
The tags will be issued from the of
fices of the chamber of commerce in the
Y building, and Miss Lentz and Mr.
Blanks to have everything so arranged i
that the tags can be issued very rap
idly.
in order that there will be no delay
with the work Mr. Blanks has decided
that tags will be issued only to those per
sons who have with them their titles of
registration. “We are goiug to be rush
ed at the best.” Mr. Blanks said, "and
it wilt be absolutely necessary that per
sons seeking the new tags have their
titles of registration with them. They
can show the titles as the blanks are
tilled out aud in this way the work will
be greatly facilitated.”
It was decided at one time last year
to abolish the sub-station here but Mr.
Blanks and other officials of the Cham
ber of Commerce got in behind the matter
and the station was opened again. It
is a great convenience for auto owners
to get their license tags here instead of
goiug through the old custom of bending
their application and check to Raleigh.
There is no change in the license law
this year so the tags will be the same
in price as they were last year.
The law requires, however, that be
fore a man can see lire a license for a
car he must .hold a certificate of owner
ship. aud it i.s for this reason that Mr.
Blanks directs all persons to have these
certificates when they call at his office
to get their new licenses.

for money. The spark of romance being a
entirely extinguished in her aged but J
weallliy husband, slnv easts longing eyes S
at the husband of her friend and per- j

Moore appear Edytlie Chapman as the J
grandmother. Leon 1 ’>«ry as the titled 3
foreigner, Lucy Fox as the girl churn aud 3
