With the sun shinfig almost as warmly as in the middle of summer there was very little reason for consumers 1o be in any hurry about laying in supplies of winter clothing or other sea- sonable goods. With a quiet retall demand the Jobbers experienced a falling off in the volume of business doing ull along the line. During the latter half of the week the weathér turmed cooler and conditions were far more favorable for a good trade, and with o continuance of such weather dealers in all lines of winter goods anticipate a good trade during the week to come. Whi there has been a falling off in the volume of business during the past week, still there has been considerable doing and the trade upon the whole, has not been unsatisfac- tory. Merchants, as a rule, were doing s mueh as they could expect under the p valling conditions and were not dispos complain. The interest which is being taken In the political campaign is rather distracting to trade.

Traveling men who have returned to the city during the past two or three days report that there i a good deal of feeling amons coun- try merchants and that'it is hard work to #ell'to those who happen to be on the other side of the political question from that taken by the jobber.
