BRADSTE. ET’S REVIEW. NEW YORK, Nov. 12.—Eradstreet’s L0-morrow will say: One of the most significant features of the business situation is found in the coutinued heavy weekly totals of bank clearings, that for six business duys ending November 11 amounted to §1,347,000,000, an inc:eas: of 10 per cent over the preceding week and 13 per cent compared with the second week of November, 1896 when business began to revive sharply In speculative liies Railroad gi0ss earnings show smaller zalns 48 comparisons begin to be made, with Learly normal conditions one year ago.

I'his gain compares with gains of 14 per cent fn September and 125 per cent in AUEUSt over cor- responding periods in 1896 The Pacific, South- western aud Central Western roads make the best showing O ber favorable features are the continued firm- ness of and wctivity in wool, iron aud steel.
