R L EERT 7a d S A Bradstreet’s on ‘Trade. — ——— % NEW YORK, Sept. 20.—Bradstreet's to-mor- row will say. The sad events of the week have naturally been repressing features, even in days when the sense. of national bereave- ment did not seek expression in total or par- tial suspension of all but the absolutely neces- sary activities. The reduced figures of sales of products or securities dealt in specula:ively and the lessened value of bank clearings were among the most prompt measures of the re- pression under which the business world has labored, but the course of prices of nearly all stocks and staples shows that repression and not depression’ is the word to express the steadiness and confidence -with which the com- mercial and financial world waited and re- ceived the change in executives. Among the more favorable of the purely com- merclal and industrial features of the week have been the continuance of the good de- mend of the jobbers, the large shipments of §oods with which to fill these demands, the better call for goods at retail,” induced by the arrival of cool fall weather and last, but not least, the settlement of the steel strike, which restores at least 50,000 men to their work. The unfavorable features are few, the most not- able being the advices of the grrival of heavy frosts in the corn belt, affecting, however, only the st planted product. Cottons alone of all the leading staples showed irregularity. The resumption of work in the hoop, sheet, tinplate and tube mills has been a feature of the week. Steel rails are being well taken at the West and steel mills are reported sold ahead to next year. Jobbers in fron and steel are busy supplying small lots to bridge over consumers until the mills recently on strike can come into the market. ron is in bet- ter inquiry and Bradstreet's Birmingham cor- respondent reports an advance of 25c per ton. Export business 1s very slow. The metals are without much change. Tin is ex- glited but copper Is steady, despite stock mar- ket rumors of heavy distributions of stock. ‘Wheat, including flour exports. for the week, aggregate 3,840,574 bushels. as against 6,648,- 609 last week and 3,525,857 in this week last vear. ) Wheat exports from July 10 to date (12 weeks) aggregate 72,182,179 bushels, as against 37,463,416 bushels last season. The -boot and shoe industries are in good shape and shipments compare excellently with a year ago. Manufacturers are determined to | get full prices for shoes in view of the strength of heavy leatler and hides, For the week business failures number 158, as against 152 last week, 182 in this week a year ago, 147 in 1899 and 152 in 1898. Canadian failures number 23, as against 16 last week, 21 in this week a year ago, 13 in 1899, 19 in' 1598 and 85 in 1897 I Dun’s Review of Trade. NEW YORK, Sept. 20—R. G. Dun & Co.'s ‘Weekly Review of Trade to-morrow will say: Universal sorrow placed a calming hand on the rush and turmoll of the market place. Ex- changes suspended operations for two days and the distribution of merchandise was in many cases limited to immediate requirements. Mercantile payments continue prompt, but [ woul not show the customary heavy gains over previous years. At leading cities outside of New York there was a gain of 0.8 per cent over 1600 and a loss of 7.0 from 1899." Yet prices were stronger and 4 i " 2 31-32¢ found stand ond tutures b 1" 156 Cop the prospect of full production, but it will be some time before immediate deliveries are made at list figures. Meanwhile the plg iron market revives at the assurance of heavy consumption, and Southern furnaces are already asking higher quotations. Forwardings of fall footwear to the West and South have about ceased with the advanc- ing geason, but producers are still busily en- turning out goods for jobbing at East- §n cltles. Quatations for shoes are unchangd, though there fs a general advance of 23@5c on' boots. Abandance of work in prospect has made operators more anxious to secure material and the leather market averages about half a cent higher. Woolen goods remain firm but quiet, While the wool market is hardened by advances at the London auction sale. ‘Wheat Is stronger, with less speculative sup- port and more actual cash demand. Ship- ments abroad continue heavy despite much in- terruption during the past week, amounting to 4,033,455 bushels, against 3,219,211 bushels last year and 3,242,164 bushels two vears ago. Fallures ‘for the week numbered 157 in the United States, against 211 last year, and 2§ in Canada, against 33 last vear. 2 | lNew York Grain and Produce NEW YORK, Sept. 20,—WHEAT—Receipts, 123,000; exports, 9400; spot, quiet; No. 2 red, %e f. o. b. afloat; No. 2 red, T5%c eievator; No. 1 Northern Duluth, 76%c f. o. b. afloat; No, 1 hard Duluth, §1%c f. o. b. afloat.

The market became dull but steadied on covering and closed firm, | Jac_higher at TI%@T1Yc. Corn was irregular but in the main steady.
