THE WEEK Trade is Excellent, with Prices Advancing Sharply in Most™ Lines, IRON MANUFACTURERS ALONE COMPLAIN Activity Prevalls in the Textile Industrios and Manufacturers are Buying More Freely—Business Fallures for the Week—Clearing House Statements, NEW York, Aug. 12.—~R. G. Dun & Co. weekly review of trade says: Crop re- ports ara not quite up o expectations, and are construed as indicating a deficlont sup- ply of corn and oats, while the possible ae- ficlency in wheat and cotton will be moro than met by surplus stocks. Butu prices have advanced quite sharply and exports of domestic products fall below last week's prices, Great industries are all doing re- markably well excepting the iron manu- facture. 7'he iron output August 1 was 15 tons weokly against 169,151 July 1 and 169,576 a year ago, but tne stocks unsold nevertheless increased 16,000 tons during the month of July and on the 1st of August ex- ceedoa 1,030,000 tons, Southern pig iron is prossed for salo and some quotations ure lower than ever. But the resumption of manufacture by western iron works, which bave settled their controversies with tho men, will make a great ctange in the situation, at once increastng the output of pig iron, and probably increasing the demawd still more. Tho manufactured iron and steel have been in very active de- mand,nearly all the works in operation being crowded with orders, but steel rails are dull as ever, and while only 700,000 tons have been sold for the year thus far the orders on hand will hardly carry oastern mills boyond September 15, Copper is weak at 115 conts ana lead at 4 cents, but speculation “advancod tin to $21. and depressed it to $20.45, There is uo market worth mentioning for coal. But in the tex- tile industries the. utmost aouvity prevails, Manufacturers are buying wool fresly. Boot and shoe factorios are still pressed to the utmost, Advance in Breadsuffs. The particular feature of the week has been the rise in breadstuffs, 2¢ in corn and 3150 in oats, whilo wheat doclined 350, with sales of only 13,000,000 bushels. ~Western receipts wero 4,030,000 bushels in four days and Atlantio expoits 2,300,000 bushels. Pork advanced per barrel, but lard acolined l50; oilrose Gu and coffee !¢, but cotton fell !ge, though exports are larger thana year ago, as crop roports grow more favor- avle. It should not be forgotten that if ex- ports of products, which for two weeks have been 7.6 per cent lower at New York than last r, should be restrictsa by advances in price, the outflow of zold would be likely to tinue and before long to affect specu tive mavkets, Imports continue oxtraordi- narily large at New York, and for five weeks. being 30 per cent greater than for the same timo last year, such & movement, would en sure further gold exports unless other con ditions change. Boston reports money strongor with in- creased demand, Trade in dry goods is rendered larger than usual and there arve hiberal western orders, particulariy 1n women’s dress goods. At Cincinpati manufacturers of women's shoes report a very prosperous season, with trade 10 per cent greater than last year, and at Cleveland business is fairly active in all principal lines, Chicago reports sales greater than a year ago, and receipts ot hides, oats and barley show some increase, of flour and cured meats 50 per cent andof lard a threefold increase, while some decrease appears. in Wwool, eatile and rye, a third in whiat and corn and 50 per cent in dresscj beof. Cul lections are satisfactory throughout thoe west, At St. Paul threshing reporws promise an average yicld and at Minuneapolis business is col n all lines, especially in lumber. - “ITade is very heavy at Omaha and col- lections never better, improving at Kausas City, with monoy in better demand and very good at Denver. At St. Louis traae is of fair volume, labor troubles have been settled and collections are more prompt than usual. Southern reports show genersl improve- ment in trade at Little Rock, at Memphis, at Montgomery and at New Orloans, but at Galveston collections are slow aud at Savan- nah money is veported tight.

Mr. Gibson was in favor of adopting the Holbrook system because it was a steam sys- tem ana Mr, Holbrook was willing to guar- anteo Lhat his system would heat the build- ing with less coal than any other system.
