Foreign Relations Important Factor In All Speculations New York, Feb. 11. Our foreign lations continue to be an important tor in the "stock market. Apparently the Lusitania incident is settled. High-' ly important concessions have been , made to American demands, and it is a source of satisfaction and relief to have , so serious an uncertainty permanently removed. The stock market naturally fluctuat ed from day to day in sympathy with the changing advices concerning diplo matic negotiations. Their successful consummation, However, imparted a much better tone generally. American 1 proved by the, more, reasonable' -attitude securities held abroad have been sold ! of the public toward large corporations, upon every good opportunity by private' and the prospejt of their being better holders owing to the pressure exerted able to secure a'squure ileal in the fu by the war. British finances are uh- ture. The only cloud upon the railroad der a great strain ,but show no signs of, horizon is coming labor troubles. The weakening. Under the circumstances, ; excessive demands of employers seem of a strong situation here and a weak-1 likely to be insisted upon, and while er one in Europe, a spasmodic influx j the roads are in a better position to of American securities must be antici-1 mnke some roncessinns thnu for some pated from time to time. The probabil-! time past, it would appear doubtful ity of the British government negotiat-j that the dispute will be settled without ing a collateral loan rather than selling more or less disturbance and possible mobilized securities will of course pre- loss. The labor outlook in the coal re- vent the heavv liquidation which the uiner im-uiou minut nave lnvuivcu. nap- pily, this country is in an excellent I condition for taking back its securities i if necessary; a state of affairs which i is equally fortunate for possible sellers J on the other side. In the war situation there is no change. The weary struggle dragi its cruel way without developing any de cisive features. When, however, we sur vey the situation at home, the outlook is one of genuine hopefulness and in strange contrast with the sad conditions abroad. The decided improvement in home trade is illustrated by January bank clearings for the principal cities, which aggregated oved 20,000.000.000 compared with $l.'l.400,00u,0o0 a year ago; an increase of about 48 per cent. These increases, which must be largely credited to a good harvest, were also partly due to higher prices and to spec ulative activity, not to speak of the stimulus afforded by war contracts. The figures for New York. 12,300,000.00(1, which showed an increase of nearly 70 per cent, were of course inflated by stock exchange activity. The increase, however, was notable, considering that the srock exchange was in full operation for the first time during the month of. bank clearings in the middle states was ' fit nnr i vnn- f.,r,i .i ! i . -1 iiuiiuiiry a vcnr ago. ine increase in cent in h' m;,i.'n ..!.. 'on per cent, in the Pacific states 11 per cent and in the southern states 21 per cent. A very striking fact is that the January clearings at New York were "" "..--...ii miiii-n more than one-third of those in the en tire country, compared with Ies-s than one-half of the total a yenr ngo. This shows that New York 'gained vastlv more in the volume of business than auv other city in the United States. Outside of New York bank clearings in the entire country were 25 per cent ahead of the previous year. New York alone gained nearly 70 per cent over last year. A further proof of business improve ment ,if needed, will be found in the railroad situation.' Earnings continue to show very satisfactory gains, par ticularly on the larger trunk lines; and tho total earnings thus far reported for January indicate an increase of nbout 20 per cent over thrxe of a year ago.

STUPID, IF HE WOl'I.D STOP TO THINK. re-iKhcnaH returns are in the ratio Willi fac-lprobably be still gKeater. In December: , the increase in earnings was over 30 I per cent, and in November about 27 per cent, compared with almost no gains of consequence but frequent losses unti September, 1915, when the roads re- ceived a sudden, and pronounced im petus ffom the moving of Qur big crops; which we repeat has been the essential factor in our. present prosperity, al though the war as an inflationary ele ment is playing a very conspicuous part. 1 lie railroad situation has also been im gions is also unsettled. Demands will ue mane wnicn cannot, ue met without advancing the price of coal, something which will not be very pleasing to con Burners in view of the constant rise iniRrnn the cost of many of the necessaries of life. Our foreign trade continues in satis factory condition. Exports aro heavy, though a slight abatement seems to be anticipated by reason of the fact that the crop movement is on tho wane and munitions shipments for the time being appear to have reached their zenith. Imports are lalno increasing, which tends to encourage a return to more normal conditions in our foreign com merce. The foreign exchange situation continues to improve, the return of American securities from abroad and the establishment of credits here as well a-s tho influx of gold having effectually removed all weakness in this direction. The investment inquiry for securities has somewhat diminished, as this mar- I ket is now awaiting the placing of im portant foreign ami other loans which are shortly to be issued. It is under-1 stood that loans aggregating nearly one billion dollars are in process of negotia tion on this side and may be placed next spring, ineso estimates mav or m 'if " -"ut tiicy in- Ovitably ha vc an i m porta nt et f cct upon market. 8uch abnormal demands !., ..;,., ,..,l,l..l.i.. I for capital unavoidably menu high re turns and higher rates of interest. Moreover, the marketing of such vast amounts of securities means the dis placement to a considerable extent of other investments. On the other hand, those in charge' of these negotiations will undoubtedly use discretion and ev ery effort to nvoid any disturbance in financial conditions. In fact to suc cessfully market such a mass of bonds, it may be desirable to give the general mnrket a greater or less appearance of strength. Furthermore, this contingency had been long expected; preparations have probably been made in advance, and the effect on security markets will doubtless have been largely discounted when the event arrives. Tin !,'t,t''r! class of railroad shares and boiids has lately received considerable attention ' ' "in Minn in '.-nuiiroi. imvcrH anil sii 1.. u .i i I'"''!"; shares more or less discrimination is necessary.

Steel trade octivity continues unchecked, and many con cerns have sold their entire output for 1!H! nt top prices. Labor is well em ployed nt good wages, and as the farm ing classes are also enjoying prosperity, the buying power of the masses is ex ceptionally great; hence the outlook for continued trade activity during the coming spring and summer months is excellent, HENRY CLEWS.
