BUSINESS CONDITIONS IMPROVE
Department Stores Have Bright Out
look Cotton Market Speculative
Business conditions In many lines show
good Improvement according to tho rclow
of conditions in the Philadelphia Federal
Reserve District ns reported by Chairman
Richard L Austin to tho Federal Reserve
Board
Tho review says In part-
"There hns been a noticeable Improve
ment In business conditions In those lines
which are especially dependent upon
weather conditions, higher temperatures
having stimulated demand for many hum
mer specialties, and business: In seasonable
incrcluiiidlt.0 Is now- well up to normal In
lolume Tho Philadelphia department storo-i
report considerable Improvement nnd expect
business to continue good
"A largo manufacturer of motortrucks
reports that the olume of business has In
creased : the outlook Is favorable, but tho
pleasure-car business is reported as not
icry good. Shoo manufacturing Is dull; the
supply of leather on hand fair and prices
firm, but manufacturers say that they have
not experienced so dull a period slnco the
panic of 1907
"Conditions in tho hosiery nnd underwear
lines nre excellent and tho mills nro work
ins to eanacltv. Carnet and tapestry mills,
however, are dull Wool prices arc high
nnd the market unsettled
"Tho decrease in the biirnlus reserves of
the Philadelphia banks to the lowest point
since early last December has forced up
call money Commercial paper now rules
at 6'i per cent. The rediscount feature ol
the Federal Reserve Dank has been availed
of to a very considerable extent."
War Risk Rates Reduced
NEW YORK. July 2 War risk lnsur
anco on ships and cargo for India ia the
Capo of Good Hopo has been reduced to 34
per rent from 4 per cent, and South African
rates have also been lowered to 3 per cent
from 3M per cent All other rates remain
firm United Kingdom Is (looted a mini
mum of 8' French Atlantic ports from
9V4, Mediterranean 12 per cent Only small
amounts nre taken on Mediterranean risks
as the reports of disasters there are discour
aging. Passengers through the Mediter
ranean say the sea Is strewn with derelicts
and wreckage, and claim that tho dally
average of sinkings In the Mediterranean la
eleven ships.
The fnctlon.il warfare that cropped out
during tho closing hours of the Legislature
smashed nil plans for harmony between the
two factions of the Republican Organization
for the gubernatorial primary next spring,
nnd split the parly wide open.
The Initiative In the Inst-mlnilto fac
tionalism was taken by the I'cnroso forces,
when tho Senate refused to confirm eight
Ilrtimbnugh appointments, and when tho
Penrose leaders attempted to slip Into tha
general npproprlntion bill several "riders"
aimed at the Vnre-Urumbaugh faction. The
Vare-Hrumbaugh forces won the last vic
tory by forcing tho Penroso leaders to drop
the "riders," nnd their victory did not servo
to make .their opponents feel nt all Inclined
toward harmony
It Is generally understood In political
circles that a harmony agreement on Stnto
Senator William C Sproul as candldato for
Governor was reached several weeks ago
Since the factional outbreak, however, tho
Vares refuse to sa whether they will sup
port Senator Sprotil. nnd Senator I'cnroso
Is serving notice on them that "It must bo
Sprout or a right " Ho even Indicated that
ho has Auditor General Snvder under con
sideration as his gubernatorial condldatc.
REAP TWO Ol'T OF PARTY
Tho refusal of the Senate to ngreo tn the
appointment of two of tho nppoliitees re
jected woh for strlcllv political reans.
These two appointments were Robert K
Young, of Tioga for Public Servlco Com
missioner, nnd Daniel I" Lafean, of York,
for State Hanking Commissioner In reject
ing their nominations, the two men wero
"read out of tho party ' by tho Penrose
Senators The confirmation of J. Denny
O'Nell as Stato Insurnnco Commissioner is
credited to the efforts of William F Crow
Penroso Inn bitterly opposed O'Nell
In connection with the action of the Sen
ate on tho Brumbaugh nominations, It has
become known that late Thursday after
noon Senator Penrose telephoned Ids lieu
tenants at llarrlsburg from Washington
"Did they confirm Young?" he asked He
was told they did not
"Did thej confirm O'Nell''" "Yes," was
the answer.
Then ho nsked whether Leech and La
fean had been confirmed, llo was told
tiiov had been rejected
"Well." suVl Penrose, "the session was
north while nfter all"
Another sidelight of tho closing hours ot
the session cleared up tho ni story of tho
exodus from llarrlsburg of many legisla
tors Just before the fight on the appropria
tion bill started.
Flyers wero sent out to Intercept everv
Representative who was known to have left,
as tho first vote showed that tho Penrose
forces had only elghtj-nlno votes, fifteen
less than the number sufficient to pass the
bill with the "riders" In It Representatives
DawRon, Powell nnd Davis were oveitaken
nt Sunhury nnd forced to turn their auto
mobile luck toward Harrl-buig
AND SIXTEEN GOT AWAY
Oil n train going west to Pittsburgh,
however, were Mxtoon members from tho
western end of tho State, thirteen from
Allegheny County and threo from nearby
counties All vveie I'unroso men, the Vnie
Briimliaugh members from those counties
having lemalned in llarrlsburg
Max Leslie, who was prominently Identi
fied with the transit company's lobby and
with tho railroad lobby, had Invited the
entlro sixteen to go weft with him as his
guests
Telegrams telling him to Immediately re
turn with tho "kidnapped" members were
bent to Altoona and Johnstown Tho first
leached him at Altoona. He kept on going
west, however
When the patty reached Johnstown an
other message was there, signed by tho
same name) as tho first, informing him that
the original messago was a Jolto and not to
pay any nttentlon to It So he nnd the
missing sixteen votes did not return nnd
the V.ues nnd tho Governor were able. to

PRESIDENT'S MOVE
"Prohibition was submarined by the Pres
ident and sunk In forty fathoms of beer and
wine," Senator Vardaman. of Mississippi,
telegraphed tho officers of the Anti-Saloon
League of his Slate, according to a copy
of tho message he had lead from tho clerk's
desk In the Senate ns soon as tho Agrlcul
tuie Committees amendment was read
Vardaman smiled broadly wlillo his words
were read A few minutes before when
President Wilson's letter, expressing tho
hopo that Congress would not prohibit
manufacture of beer and wlno and thereby
facilitate passage of the food control bill,
ho asked:
"Did tho President request the patriotic
Senators who nre opposed to liquor to
withdraw their objection?"
PENROSE BLOCKS BILL
Trosperts for rj vote on the food bill
early this week wero blocked by Senator
Penrose, of Pennsylvania. Senator Cham
berlain asked unanimous consent for a oto
by tomorrow
"I object," said Senator Penrose
"Will the Senator agreo tn a vote on
July 5 or 6 ?" Senator Chamberlain asked
"No." replied Senator Penrose
"Will the Senator ngreo to any curtail
ment of debate?" was the next question
"No," said Senator Penrose, adding, "I
have no desire to delay the bill The bill
Itself Is harmless when compared to some
of tho amendments to be offered."
The request of the New Jersey Ons Com
pany made before the Public Utilities Com
mission for permission t Increase Its rato
through elimination of discount has rauscd
soino dissatisfaction In two or three South
Jersey communities investigation has
shown, however, that the protests from gas
consumers nre not especially strenuous
By elimination of nn S per iciit discount
for prompt pnvment the eompniivs rate of
$t.3S per 1000 cubic feet would be Inci eased
to a Hat rate of $1 50
Mnt of tho consumers, who nre nvvaro
of the high cost of living and the high cost
ot buslnoss, necoptod tho proposed Incrcaso
as a matter of course
In view- of tho fact that much of tho area
covered by tho company Is only rparsely
settled,. Its officers contend that a uniform
rate of $1 50 Is necessary on nccount of tho
high cost of oil, lnbor and maintenance gen
erally The company's system extends from
Woodbury, nlmost to Mlllvllle, and covert
approximately 200 square miles
It was erroneously reported that the com
pany sought to obtnln a 50 per cent "'i
crense In price This was denied by Thomas
J Grayson, vlco president, who also ex
plains Incidents lending up to the hearing
before the commlsloti in the following state
ment- 0
ELIMINATION OF DISCOUNT
"Tho statement that the companv seeks
a 50 per cent boost tn the price of gas Is
dntruo Tho application was to be allowed
to cut off an 8 per cont discount now al
lowed for prompt payment, making tho
chango In rate the dllTerenco between $1 38
per thousand cublo feet of gas and $1 50
per thousand cubic feet of gas This change
npplles to the companj's territory outaldo
of Vineland, N J. The application in tho
Vlneland territory Is for an Incrcaso from
$1 per thousand cublo foet of gas to $t 60
per thousand cublo feet of gas, and this
Increase, if allowed, will have the great ad
vantage of mnking a uniform rnte for gas
supplied to domestic consumers all over tho
company'e territory
'The case was not postponed ns a result
of the protest of nny citizen or citizens, but
simply because tho change In tho rato at
Vlneland was proposed for the first tlmo
vesterdny, and tho commission did not wish
to make 'two bites of a cherry,' but simply
desired to hear tho whole caso at one and
the same time
"A most unfair statement nbout tho situ
ation Is contnlned In a printed statement
'Much to tho surprise of tho gas company's
attorneys, a group of angry citizens repre
senting tho towns affected appeared before
tho commission nnd urged continuance of
the caso until they could organlzo nnd re
tain the services of attorneys' This state
ment Is not true; not a single citizen nil-
dressed tho commission, to the best of my
knowledge, nnd I bellevo no one was pres
ent representing nny of the towns affected
oxcept an attorney from Pennsgrove, N. J,
who, so far as I know, did not file nn np
penrance and certainly did not address tho
commission There were no angry citi
zens present, nnd I challenge any one to
provo that there were. The further state
ment that 'during tho hearing several citi
zens representing small townships asserted
that they had received no Inkling concerning
tho proposed changes In rates until yester
day' Is also Incorrect Tho true fact Is that
I personally published notice of tills meet
ing and the purpose of It In three lending
ncwspapeis of South Jcisev and I submitted
to tho commission yesterday affidavits of
publication of theso notices
JUSTIFIES HIGHER RATE
"I might also state that I am Informed
tr, the secretary of the Publicity Utility
Commission of New Jersey tint tho com
mission nlso sent notices to tho principal
towns Involved I'nder theso circumstances
the fact that after full publication there
wero no angry citizens present, nnd, In
'ict. as far ns I know, no citizens nt all,
would heom to bo one of the greatest argu
ments In favor of tho Justlco of the com
pany's proposed Increase In rato
"Tho whole question In connection with
tho New Jersey Gas Company's proposed
Incrcaso In rate may be summed up In a
few words- As a direct result of this ter
rible war, labor, fuel and oil hnvo Increased,
virtually doubled. In cost within tho last
two years, and It Is simply Impossible for
any utility to continue to operate on Its
former basis without suffering unmerited
loss It is to euro this situation that the
Incrcaso Is asked for, and not from nny
ilcslro to mako llfo harder for tho consumer.
