state during the week of the Iowa. Btata
Teachers' association, commencing the
Tuesday following Chiistmaa. Nearly all
the colleges of the tat will have re
unions, for among the teacher of the state
are a very large number of the graduates
of these colleges and they are the persona
who will attend the teachers' meeting. The
State college, the Stat university, Cor
nell, Grlnnell, Wesleyan, Upper Iowa,
Simpson, Drake and other colleges of the
Mate will all have meetings arranged,
generally at the hotels. In addition to
this there are to be reunions of college
men from the New England and eaatern
Institutions, as a great many of them aro
In the state, especially among the pro
fessional men. The Walt Whitman, club
ts to have a big banquet during the week.
As the annual session of the teachers' as
aoclatlon this year Is to celebrate the fif
tieth anniversary of the establishment of
the society, It will call together a larger
number of the older educators than ever
before. In fact It Is to be a general
roundup of the educators of the state after
fifty years of progress and encouragement
from the State association.
The efforts of the association for the
betterment of the teachers of the state
' and educational work have been confined
largely to securing higher pay for the
teacher and Improvement of school house
and school ground conditions. The report
of the state superintendent shows that there
has been some advance In the matter of
Wages to teachers. It Is expected that
the association will petition the leglsla
ture for a radical change In the way of
conducting . examination of teachers and
that they be examined by the State board
a to their scholastic attainments.
Rate Qaestlom Becomes Acute..
By reason of the agitation during th
last year for a modification of th Inter
state commerce law and the passing of
resolutions by the various agricultural
bodies meeting here this -Week, the issue
of control of Interstate rates by federal
authority has become acute. It is under
stood to be the plan of the farmers -to
have' resolutions adopted practically at
very farmers' institute in the state the
coming winter and to have them for
- warded to the Iowa members of congress.

Manufacturing activity steadily increases,
testifying to tne general confidence In a
heavy demand next year and tradina
blanches of business report seasonable con
ditions. Holiday goods sell more freely
than staples, but all classes of merchandise
are going Into laraer consumption, while
It Is the exception when there Is complaint
regarding mercantile collections. The pro
portion of Idle machinery Is growing
smaller and Hie number of unemployed l ss,
few iHhor disputes of significant dimension

at some points) still provides the most seri
ous drawback to full operation of capacity.
Footwear forwarding are running close to
the large figures of last year and irregular
raw materials supply is the only serious
element of uncertainty In the textile In
dustries. Farm staples are returning large
fronts to producers and foreign trade re
urns for November showed a very small
loss In exports, considering the abnormal
figures for last year. For the last week
at this port Imports were li.S36.167 larger
than In 8, but exports declined 2,6.'U).
Far from meeting with the setback that
many traders anticipated, the iron and steel
industry has gone steadily forward. Theio
Is no evidence of Inflation in the pre,-ent
situation, fuel shortage Is Increasing the
cost of production, while orders covering all
the products of some furnaces for the lirst
quarter of next year testify to the faith of
consumers. This forward business Is til
best feuture of the market.
Hallways are beginning to anticipate their
needs during the early months of next year,
which Is one of the fundamental features
of strength In the present situation. Cars,
locomotives, rails and Mructural material
for bridges are among the active divisions
while machinery and tools are stimulated
by orders for big tunnel and canal con
struction, In addition to Japanese orders.
Pipe and tube mills are receiving large or
ders and construction work promises to be
very heavy next year, which accounts for
the rapid increase in output of material.
Packer hides are steady, but weakness
has developed In country hides and buyers
of native pteers wait for concessions. For
eign dry hides are firmly held. leather Is
less active. New Kngland footwear man

with fall samples, and also soliciting sup
plementary spring business, but buyers ate
not willing to pay the small advance de

prices are now being quoted for cotton

BRADSTUEETS REVIEWS OF TRADES
Decidedly Cheerfnl Tone Pervade in

NEW YORK, Dec. 16. Bradtreets will
ay tomorrow:
Crop and Industrial conCtlons are mainly
favorable and with stasonahle activity in
distribution in mot sections, the year ts
drawlna to Its close with a decidedly
cheerful tone pervading moat lines of busi
ness effort. The area In winter wheat will
not equal that planted a year ago and
conditions on December 1 were low, but
since the government report was issued
the western drouth has been fairly well
broken by rains and snows. Cold weather
has stimulated heavy dry goods, clothing
and footwear and helped reorder business
with Jobbers, east, west and north. Excep
tions to reports of widespread activity in
holiday distribution are from the Pucllic
coast and from portions of the south,
which latter reports cotton marketing
lower and collections tardier. Plenteous
supplies of cheap money render the hold
ing or cotton easier man in omer years.
Industry as a whole is active, iron and
Bteel notably so, but building trades fael
seasonable quieting influences and cotton
manufacturing la not active in all Its
branches. Railway earnlnes for November
show gains In gross exceeding t per cent,
following an Increase of 4 per cent In 1903,

Telegram.) Lou E. Reed of Ohlowa, Neb.,
defeated D. 1). Bray In a 100 blue rock con
test on the grounds of the Columbus Gun
club here today for the Denver Post trophy
cup. The match was shot In a storm that
lacked little of being a bllxxard and was a
serious handicap to both shooters. When
each had shot at the 100 targets. It was
found that each had broken eighty-two and
they agreed to decide the tie by an addi
tional twenty-five. Reed broke a clean
score and Bray missed two. This made the
