New York, Dec. 17. The close of the harvest season and Industrial develop ments dining November and the early part of December conspire1 to make the business outlook for the opening of the year 1911 altogether promising. An av erage wheat crop and an abundance of corn crop, with good average prices prevailing has broupjit much prosperity to the farmers of the middle and west ern states. .' : An 11,100,000 bale cotton crop, aa Is Indicated by the glnners' report, now that the cotton season is about over, has caused the price to' continue high. Which hasfbrought much ready money Into the cotton belt This will have the effect of bringing a heavy Christmas trade to the merchants and large pur chases of farming Implements, stock and fertilisers by the planters with the. opening of the new season. A' leader of the great enterprises which will affect industrial business is the Pennsylvania Kailroad company, which has given an order for 150,000 tons of steel rails, for 1911 delivery. The orOor Is considm ably larger than they had expected to moko it. For 1910 delivery the company originally or dered about 140,000 tons, but follow up orders made the total for the year 210,000 tons. "Delays of the Oiw Discussed, Boston, Dec. 17. The causes of delay in the administration of Justice in" civil actions and plans to remedy 'the evil were exhaustively discussed here today at the annual meeting of the Massachu setts Bar association.

The National conservation association Is working on r plah to bring ' together the opposing forces In th& water power controversy, those who have ' been known as advo cates of federal regulation, and those who stood for state, regulation. The Plan' is approved by, Gifford Plnchot, president of the association, but it has been laid before competent engineers of. wide experience In water power develop ment, and officers and '. managers of liydro-electrlc ' -power companies i who have criticised it and approved It." ; - ' The plan was drafted by Philip P. Weils, attorney for the association, for mer law officer of the forest service. He had a large share In devising th system of water power regulation in national foresta. The plan Is offered as a platform on which both aides In the controversy mayi unite to , protect the public Interest, and at the same time1 en courage the development of the many mflliona of horsepower now going to waste In the mountain streams of the west and the great rivers of the central and eastern parts of the country. Benefit to AH Xi" Claimed. i'1 The plan , contemplates developing, without delay, waste or sacrifice of other and higher uses- of,flpwlng water, JVJr. Wells rays: --. t "Under this plan private capital must he aided by the state or nation to cor porate franchises, condemnation of pri vate property and licenses to use public lands and obstruct public waters. The power company would have certainty of t. nure for a reasonable time, and a chance, for generous profit upon their actual development For the public the plan promises good service, fair prices, full publicity as to cost, honest, capital ization, and fair rentals for public prop erty used by the companies. . -: j Mini TnrtoAtatlon TJmltL "It Is conceded In the plan that tie federal government has no Jurisdiction unless Its land In to be occupied or nav j gable rivers affected. Even In such cases the regulation of service and prices la to be the function of the-atata, leaving to the national government the duty of securing prompt, full and or iieriv development and reasonable time limit for releases, publicity la to finano- ing and fair rentals for federal property used, perhaps paying a part of the pro- e-eds to the state. . V With reference to water power sites not owned by the United States, and -which do not affect navigation, Mr, Wells concedes that they are wholly in Kate Jurisdiction, and as to them he, urges that the state governments should pcure all of the public objects set Jorth in his plan. He says: Scope for Convention Work. , "There Should also be development. not speculation, a reasonable publio con trol under good water . laws, public storage reservoirs constructed - by the e tate, at the expense of power site own ers on the streams below, as proposed by the New , York state vater supply commission.---' There are very great op portunities here --for conservation work by the state." . , ' It Is earnestly noped that the plan may remove the subject of water power sites from the bitter controversy of the past fern years, and afford a basis upon which all the conflicting fac tions may come together.

There is general fe- Jdlcing throughout the country over the breaking up of the various big estate and the purchase of them by the ten 'ants who live on them. The landlords sre apparently satisfied, as they, get their money in a lump sum. The estates commissioners met at Ballintrillick and proceeded with the distribution of the Curraghamore ranch containing S00 acres and formerly held by Sir Jocelyn Gore Booth Llssadell, Sligo. ' All the tenants were duly considered and addi tions of land In some cases up to 18 acres were made. Booth is the son of an ; Irish nobleman who would never wear a collar 'and made It a practice to curse England every time it was mentioned.
