NO CALL FOR BUSINESS PESSIMISM, SAYS FRANKLIN K, LANE INTERSTATE COMMISSIONER CALLS MR. HILL "JIM DUMPS' AND GIVES OUT ENCOURAGING STATISTICS. Declares That Reports Show the Railroads to Be Earning Much Mora Par Mil Than In Last Presidential Year---Thinks Doprasslon la Only Temporary. Washington, t. C. Some remarks about conditions in the railroad world which were contained in nn in terview with James J. Hill In New York brought out a response from Franklin K. Lane, a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission. Mere Is part of Mr. Lane's statement: "The whole world has a great ad miration for Mr. Mill, but I do wish he would not be so lugubrious. Jim Dumps bas not yet superseded the optimistic Uncle Sam as the typical American. A year ago Mr. Hill said that the railroads had failed to meet the traffic necessities of the country; that there had been a steady increase In business which the railroads had not met and that It would be neces sary to Invest $5,500,000,000 in pro viding equipment, double trackB and terminals to handle the business of the country properly. And now be cause for two or three months the railroads have been able to handle more business than was offered them we are met on all hands with the cry that the country is going to the bow bows. "What Is the necessity for painting the picture blacker than it is? Does It arise out of tho fact that Congress Is In session, or that there is a Presi dential election impending? Is a man an enemy of the railroads be cause he refuses to believe every old woman's tale that comes out of Wall Street? I do not understand the rea son why at the time when railroad credit should be upheld those who ought to be most interested in sup porting that credit are lending their influence to breaking It down. "Let us see what these figures show," said Mr. Lane. "The average monthly receipts from freight and passenger traffic for each mile of tho 225,000 miles of railroad In the Uni ted States reporting to this commis sion for the first seven months of this fiscal year were $980, which is $180 per mile per month more than the average for the fiscal year ended July 1, 1905, the year of the last Presidential election, which was csr talnly not regarded as a poor year In the railroad or industrial world. The net revenue from traffic allowing for all operating expenses, including in creased wages and cost of material in the fiscal year ending in 1908. Is $37 per mile per month greater than in the year 1904-05. The net monthly revenue for this fiscal year Is thus far $7 less per mile than for the pre ceding year 1906-07, which may bo taken as high water mark thus far iu the history of the United States." The Interview which drew the above comment is ns follows: New York City. James J. Hill, who has arrived in this city, says of business conditions: "While I Cannot permit myself to be too optimistic, I am trying not to be pessimistic. The general recovery in business which has been predicted has not yet mani fested itself to any remarkable de gree, and It is not to he expected that it should. The prevailing conditions were not brought about overnight; they are the result of events ot many months, and n revival will no doubt be correspondingly gradual." RAILROADS NEED 300,000 MEN FOR REPAIR WORK Americans Preferred In Work Admit They See Many Sic Chicago. The "unemployed," who are congesting the cities, subsisting upon charity and menacing the peace of various communities, If they really want work can find It with the rail roads of the United States at once. This is the opinion expressed here by leading railroad men. The wages range from $1.50 to $2.50 a day, in cluding good board and transporta tion. Within the next sixty days the railroads must find 300,000 men to repair roads, bridges, furbish up sag Kinc tracks, build extensions and man ! the shops. The ravages of the win ter months havo left much work to be done, and it must bo done speed - ' lly, for the railway managers admit tbey see many signs of improving business and must have their lines and equipment in condition to care ! tor it. Americans will have the prefer ence. Heretofore it has been Impos- Bible to get Americans as laborers. of Extending tines Managers ns of Improving; Business. because they were engaged in more profitable employment and work more to their liking. Furthermore, they do not care to nssociate with the motley gangs that usually go to innko up the repair squads. Now that many men are out of employment it Is hoped by railroads to get a larger percentage of Americans, who admit tedly are the best workmen in tho world. Formerly forty per cent, of the laborers employed In tho spring work were Italians on roads between the seaboard and the Rocky Mountains.- West of the mountains, espe cially on the Hill lines, Japanese were employed. In the southwest Mexicans, Indians and Italians pre dominate, but everywhere there have been many Greeks, Slavs, Poles, Huns and other nationalities. Because of the financial stringency many thou sands of these have departed for Eu rope. Now it Is hoped to get the work done by Americans. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT EASES UP ON RAILROADS Will Not enforce the "Commodity Clause" Part of Rate Law Pending Supreme Court Action. ern Maryland, a Gould coal road, to go into the hands of receivers. That action, It was announced, was forced on it by the commodity clause of the rate law, which, bearing as It did on the road's prospective earning capac ity, affected Its borrowing capacity. The President, It is stated, has no desire to add to the embarrassments which surround the railroads In their efforts to comply with the law, and as the question of the validity of the "commodity clause" has been criti cised by competent legal opinion It was thought best for all interests In volved that a prompt determination of the question by the Supreme Court should be sought. It is understood that the railroads have given assur ance to the Government that if the courts decide against them they will immediately and In good faith com ply with the law. Bradst reefs says: The first week of spring has seen an expansion In retail trade and an enlargement of operations In build ing lines, especially at the West. Conservative estimates of actual needs govern buying, and replace ment of broken stocks is the chief source of Jobbing and wholesale de mand. Trade In the primary branches is therefore quiet, and operations in Industrial lines are below normal. Ruslnes failures for the week end ed March 26 number for the United States 286, against (09 last week. 166 In the like week of 1907, 169 In 1906, 227 In 1905 and 212 In 1904. U. G.

In the primary niarkets for textile fabrics there Is more Inquiry, es pecially for small quantities of cot tons to be shipped promptly. Urg ency of demand for Immediate ship ment indicates that stocks in dis tributing channels are light and goods must be secured for delivery on orders tbnt were tnken. hut not provided for, in the expectation that lower prices would be named by pro ducers before retailers called for thorn. The decline in price of raw mnterlal has had a depressing effect on the tone of the market for cotton goods and actual Improvement Is, therefore, the more gratifying, while finished products are no cheaper.

The Govern ment will not prosecute railroads for failure to comply with the "commod ity clause" ot the railroad law pend ing a decision of the Supreme Court. That decision has been arrived at, It is understood, after careful consid eration by tbe President, and he bas accordingly directed tho Department of JitstiM to bring a test case as soon as possible after May 1, the day when becomes effective the law forbidding any railroad to transport any article or commodity (other than timber) manufactured, mined or produced by such road, or in which It Is directly or Indirectly Interested. Thus any railroad that owns coal mines would be liable to prosecution should It carry Its own coal to mar ket.
