Chicngo, Feb. 13. That the na
tion again Is on tho high road to
prosperity was shown today by re
ports from all sections of the coun
try. On every hand it Is agreed that
the depression following th'o finan
cial flurry of last fall is a thing of
the past, and that the outlook is for
a steadily Increasing volume of bus
iness until normal conditions have
been reachod. In some branches of
trade prosperity in a full measuro
has been recorded, and other lines
show an improvement that promises
some satisfactory records at the close
of .the year.
Following the end of the stringency
in money comes an improvement in
collections and a corresponding facil
ity of barter and sale. It nlso has
been demonstrated completely that
the general public escaped the effects
of the flurry. The people have cash
with which to supply their needs,
and their needs are just as great as
ever.
With more factories resuming op
erations every day, the number of
the unemployed is decreasing, and it
is believed that before long the idle
mill will be the exception.

We "ask for a rehearing because

into the market for large quantities

The outlook is for bigger business,
both in quality and in quantity, than
last year," said Walter D. Moody,
business manager of the Chicago As

been around the wholesale district a

"There are many merchants in
