PROSPERITY ON EVERY HAND. Julius Kruttm-linitt, Prominent Direc tor of llurrlman Linen, is Pleaded. Portland, Ore., Aug. (."Enormous crops are being harvested throughout the country. Farmers never were more prosperous. I confidently expect this situation will assist materially In restoring the general business pros perlty that prevailed prior to the ft' nanclal flurry last October," said Jull us Kruttschnttt, .director of matnte nance aVid operation of the Harrlman lines, who reached Portland today from San Francisco. "Since the financial disturbances last fall traffic business has Improved very slowly. I was surprised at the effects of this panic In at least two respects;, first, at the extent to which business was affected; and second, the time It required to restore former bus iness conditions. But the panic had its benefits. It enabled large corpora tlons to catch up with their work and remove the congestion, which handi capped their various systems. The railroads now are better equipped and able to handle the same volume of business satisfactorily that a year ago practically tied up all the railroads. Mr. Kruttschnttt declined to discuss politics. FORCE WANTS REST. Tlwj Circus Fever lias Firm Grip on Kewnpaper Force This Afternoon.
