The sum total of the present gold inflow is over $9,- 000,000, and though this amount is little greater than the shipments of money from New York to the Interior In some recent weeks, the ef. fect, even in advance of the specie’s arri was decidedly favorable. Owing largely to the &014 importing arrangements and to a falling off in the supply of cotton bills, foreign ex- change recovered this week from its recent break, and is again at a point which cuts off further gold Imports. The fact, however, that in case of danger to our money market assist- ance could be had abroad, could hardly fail to give increased confidence to the financlal and speculative markets. In this connection Wall street was particularly struck by the announce- ment that the Bank of France would put no obstacle in the way of moderate gold with- drawals for shipment to New York if they were needed here. It 1s also noted with satisfaction that though some of the specie now on_the way hither was taken from the Bank of Eng- land or France most of the shipments repre- sent amounts of bullion picked up in the open markets, and one’ important sum of $2,500,000 included in the National City Bank's consign- ment consists of bar gold from South Africa. way which has obviated any disturbance ‘" markets, discounts at of the foreign money and fear of a disturbance cansed by American demands for payment of its credit balances has in any increased foreign farticipation in our stock market, and London has ever been a small seller of securities on the advances which re recorded here. * Bradstreet's on Trade. * * NEW YORK, Oct. 19.—Bradstreet's to-morrow will say: * As the jobbing distributive trade tends to lessen with the advance of the fall season, the repressive Influences of ante-election feeling becores more clearly perceptible and the re- sult a generally quiet, though at the same time confident, feeling In general trade, which the stcck mmrket has apparently begun to dis- court, with the result of swelling current bank clearings well above recent totals. As for some time past the best trade advices come from the South, which remains cheerful in spite of | lower cotton. Pacific Coast advices are that export trade is very large as the result of army needs and Asfatic requirements. North- western trade is on the whole quiet, and the disposition to charge the election with this is manifest. Eastern wholesale trade is quiet but steady. | Gross raflway returns continue excelient, con- sldering the reports of qulet In all other lines, and net returne for August are much more en- couraging than those of July. The country’ foreign trade is in flattering condition, Septem- ber exports being the largest ever reported for that month, and, swelled by the high prices for cotton shipments, the nine months returns are far in advance of all previous years. Im- ports, on the other hand, show few gains and the outlook I8 for a record-breaking export trade d a merchandise balance for the cal- endar yéar far in advence of all other years. Prices of farm products have tended down- ward this week. The most notable drop has been in cotton, half a cent for the week, and one cent from the highest point reached, due to the £00d picking weather and absence of frost encouraging maximum estimates of yield, but also because of the heavy weight of receipts brought out by the high prices of two weeks ago. ‘The repression noted most promi- nent |‘n‘pflu iron and '.l‘teel industries, whm!e values for the this year.

G. Dun & Co.’s Weekly Review of Trade to-morrow Wwill say: A settlement of the coal strike, satisfactorily to all interests, having been effected, business breathes more freely in the East and distribu- tion of merchandise 1s increasing slowly again, though the election excitement Keeps new buy- ing In many lines down to wants for immedi- ate consumption. In the West there is not the same hesitation and there as well as in the south the marketing of the crops ls re- sponeible for a fceling of much confidence in the moverent of business if the nation acts conservatively at the polis. Prices of com- modities are weaker and the caution 80 grati- 1ying in a Presidential year keeps speculation at a minimem, Cotton further declined, making the loss about % a bale in two weeks. Planters are rushing work and picking 1s expected to progress rap- 1dly enough to save most of the crop from early frost. High prices make it possible to pay good wages to pickers and the movement at recelving points increases largely. Domes- tie spinners are not liberal buvers, but exports are only slightly smaller than a year ago. Wheat has shown more weakness, due in part to the grenter aotivhy at Russlan ports an Atlantic exports for the week were only 2,647, 285 bushels, against 8,270,228 a year ago. Few important fluctuations occurred in fron and steel, but there were small advances in bessemer ig at Pittsburg and billets at Phila- delphia. Moderate gains are reported in the volume of transactions, although the tendency 18 to delay large contracts a few weeks. Im- plement makers take bar iron freely, how- ever and orders for pipe are urgent, with severe weather coming on. Structural shapes are taken for foreign points as far distant as Egypt and domestic bridge builders buy freely. More mills have gone into blast and the gen- eral tone is improving. Production of coke has increased, but prices are easy and many ovens still {dle.” Tin declined again, making the fall 1%c in two weeks and éc from the high point in_July. Leather and hides are firm and selling freely because of steady improvement in demand for boots and shoes. Jobbers are placing large orders with manufacturers and demand is no longer limited to fall goods. Spring contracts are increasing at an encouraging rate, although an effort Is made to keep these sales as quiet as possible, owing to the effect on the market for raw material. While woolen mills are not working at full capaeity, more seasonable weather —has in- creased buying in this line and purchases of ool at the three chief Fastern markets In- :refi)!;: :9 "H:HN: pounds, the best total for ime, although still far below the amount taken through speculative activity a year ago.
