SOMETIMES.
j The incident of the narrow es-
!. ape of a lady from being run down
j by an auto as told in the Wave-
Democrat calls to the mind of a
1 man who observes that there are
j as many "jay walkers' as there used
to be "Jay drivers" and that they
need to be educated as have been
the drivers to a very great
tent.
The "jay walker" is not the one
who walks on the wrong side of
the street but one who in crossing
a street in front of an approach-
ing vehicle changes his gnit so that
the driver of the horse or auto
can not tell just how to manage to
miss him. The driver of a horsu
auto is supposed to be looking

BUSINESS REACTION AND PROS
PECTS.
Moderate depression continues In
industry and deep depression In bm-
ines sentiment. Revolutionary poll-
tics are regarded as chiefly respon-
sible, with Mr. Roosevelt as the
great factor therein, and thousands
of republican business men in their
extreme irritation seem to be pre-
paring to vote for the opposition
tickets in the fall elections. Ex-
tensive democratic victories are re-
garded as certain and they are like-
ly to be accepted in financial cir-
cles as a hopeful development. Dem-
ocratic administration and legis-
lation could not well be worse and
might he better—such Is the view j
commonly finding expression. If
therefore the trust decisions and the
railroad rate controversy were set-
tled. we should be apt to see a re-
vival of speculative activity before
the elections, and it may be seen
anyway, but the prevalent belief Is |
that a revival of any proportions
will wait after the elections upon j
the disposition of these Important i
matters. There are to be consid-
ered, however, the influences which
a great political overturn may have
in preventing a radical and dis-
turbing disposition of trust and rail-
road questions.
But meantime speculative enter-
prise continues at a standstill. The
stock market moves only in re-
sponse to small professional dealings
up a fraction one day and down the
next. The market has a soldout ap-
pearance. and it would seem likely
that the next decided movement of
prices would be up rather than
down, but all depends on whether
business depression is to become
worse or has reached its lim-
its.
The market has discounted the
present measure of adversity and is
In doubt whether that measure is
hereafter to increase or diminish.
The indications are mixed. L'p to
the present month the paper manu-
facturing industry hereabouts was
having a business ten per cent in
excess of a year ago, but with Sep-
tember the excess is ceasiug. The
paper business west is reported to
be worse than in the east ,and if
that is true of other industry we
may have a moderation of western
Rooseveltian transports. Collec-
tions are said to be extremely slow,
people being disposed to hang on
to any money that comes to hand
and husband liquid resources against
what? That is the question.
But, panic should certainly be con-
sidered so little stocking up as in
the past year.
Other depressing indications ap-
pear in the sinking or sunken state
of the steel and copper markets.
Calumet and Ilecla s reduction In
selling price for that company's spe-
cial product from 13 to 12 1-2 cents
has again Hipped the budding hopes
of holders of copper stocks, and the
question is whether the curtailment
in production lately put Into effect
is not being offset by a fall in the
volume of consumption. As for the
steel market the usual fall buying
movement is yet to set in. New
business is above that of the summer
but away below normal. The rail-
roads are still under general and
rigid retrenchment. Further price
cutting in steel is denied, but in
spite of assurance of Steel corpora-
tion officials that prices are at bot-
tom prospective buyers are not dis-
posed to rush into the market. * * *
Immediate trouble to our money
market from abroad on acount of
large imports and adverse trad?
balance disappears in a fall of
sterling exchange at New York,
close to the gold Importing point.
The insistence of British bankers on
a~n American banking guaranty of
cotton bills of lading after October
31st next will have the effect of
hurrying cotton forward for ex-
port, and it Is presumably under the
pressure of a free offering of cotton
bills that the foreign exchange mar- j
ket has fallen. Unless foreigners j
become free sellers of American se-j
curltles held abroad, we may Import I
Besides being the best Local
Paper in the City, it chronicles
all the important happenings
of the State and Nation.
The Wave-Democrat is more thoroughly read than any paper
in the City, therefore as an advertising medium it is unexcelled.
