Dun & Co.’s eisly Review of Trade to-morrow will say: Unfavorable signs are rare in the business | outlook. Manufacturing industries enjoy ex- | ceptional activity and most jobbers and re- | tallers find no occasion for complaint. Mild | weather is the one influence that may be charged with retarding retail merchandise dis- tribution, yet it is the general opinion that | sales thus postponed will be made up later. | The same influence is invaluable in facili- | tating the handling of crops, erecting buildings | and other outdoor work. Although a fifth of the year is still to be heard from, Including the usual interruntion of elections and possi- ! ble disturbance of legislation, there is good evidenc: that the volume of l=gitimate business will largely exceed all yrevious records. Specu- lation is comparatively quiet, both in securi- ties and options, on leading products, which emphasizes the activity in trade channels, as shown by bank exchanges for the week at New York 33 per cent larger than last year and 8.4 above 1549, while at other leading cities the gains were 16,3 and 9.1 per cent, respectivel, Strength without inflation still chnrucler{ 'S the fron_ and steel situation. .Despite two months of interruption by the strike, evidence | accumulates that the year will surpass all records In vroduction of finished material and l“ consequently in consumption of ore and pigircn. Orders already booked for de- livery far into 1802 promise that next vear will bring still higher records, and the steadiness of prices makes the outlook esoecially favorable. Mills as a rule have practically closed contracts for all the orders that can be filled this year ard future devel- opments can only affect conditions In 1902 as o finished steel. Heavy orders are recorded for ralls, with a free movement of structural material, while wire and wire nails go abroad in large quantities. Pigiron is hardening un- under the varfous demand, forge and Southern foundry securing definite advances, and Bes- semer in Pittsburg is firm at $16. Tin plates are almost restored to normal prices. Since domestic mills have resumed and imports ceased the London market has de- clined sharply. Copper rose in the face of re. rorts that a large reduction in list prices wa: contemplated by leading producers to reduce stocks. Footwear factories still have many weeks' full employment on heavy-weight gocds for winter. Sunnlementary orders for season- able lines still arrive from Kastern jobbers. Prices are not quotably higher, though the rapid rise of leather and hides has taken so rauch of the profit that shoes must soon de- terlorate in quality If better quotations are not forthcominz. Leather bas begun to exhibit symptoms of speculation, but hll{lnl by the leading manu- facturers for actual consumption also reaches a larze total. Woolen_goods are more quiet, yet shipments of over 5.000.000 pounds of wool weekly from Borten indicates no decrease in activity at the mills. “Fluctuations In cereals were small, with markets dull and featureless. Wheat lost a little of the early*gain. although declining prices a_year ago make the difference smaller than it has been at any time this crop year. Yoreien buying of flour is still unsatistae- tory. but the outgo of wheat Is heavy. For the week United States exvorts, flour included, amounted to 4,391,053 bushels, comnared with 761 bushels last year and 4,255,766 bushels | two vears azo, | Wastern receipts of 5093614 bushels. against | 7.426,631 bushels last week. and 7.13§.419 a year ago. indicate that the new crop is'b2ing mar- keted less freely. mrowers holding back In ex. pectation of better prices. desnite the esti- mate for formirn anthorities that the world's FIA1a will oxceed 2.700.000,000 bushels. Failures for {he weck numbered 229 in the N United States, against 209 last year, and 31 in Canada, against 2 last vear. e s 3 Bradstreet’s on Trade. * NEW YORK, Oct. 13.—Bradstreet’s to-morrow will sa; Among the notable features brousht out in trade dispatches to Bradstreet's this week are the reports of stimulated retail trade, due to cooler settled weather and advices of continued activity in all leading industrial lines, notably iron and steel, shoes and leather, coal, lumber, Jewelry and cotton and woolen goods. The shipments of products of these industries and of groceries to consuming sections continue heavy and are accompanied by reports of de- lays ‘due to the scarcity of cars. Another one of those slight upward swings in prices of sta- ples, so numerous of late, has also occurred by which the general level of cereals, raw cotton, dairy products and lake copper has been raised. Clearings have expanded because of an exten- sion of interest in the security markets, but also because of continued good collections, which, in turn, have induced rather more ease in money rates at leading markets. Advices from the South are still of a backward cotton crop movement, hampering fall demand and col- lections, but even here there has been an Im- provement noted this week. Iron and steel consumption continue fully equal and, in some cases, in excess of produc- tions. Features this week have been the sale by merchant furnaces in the Pittsburg district of 75,000 tons of Bessemer pigiron to leading interests at from $15 75 to §15 50 per ton at Val- ley furnaces. Steel billets have continued scarce and are practically unobtainable for prompt de- livery, though $27 and §28 per ton is offered, against the nominal quotation of $26 for dis- tant delivery. Pigiron stocks in the Central West are said to not exceed one week's supply. Orders for fully 1,000,000 tons of rails for next year's delivery have been booked, although the principal consuming interest has not yet ap- portioned its business, which is expected to ex- ceed 165,000 tons. Plates, bars and sheets and structural material are all active, but iron bars are reported easier. Tin-plate mills are catch- ing up with their orders and a cut is reported in_the price of wire nails. Rallroads are in the market for cars and one Western system has bought 2000 this week. ‘E:m‘ort business in iron and steel is not prom- sing. Cooler weather and fear of frosts, coupled with good reports from the print cloth industry, bave stimulated raw cotton and this in turn is restricted in higher quotations for nearly all leading bleached cottons. ‘Woolen goods are rather quiet as regards new demand, but the mills are busy on heavy-weights and when these are out of the way a large volume of orders for spring welghts guarantees continued activity. Wool is steady and firm with a large con- sumption progressing. Failures in the United States number 188, as against 173 last week, 258 this week a year ago, 221 in 1899 and 213 in’ 1898, Canadian failures for the week number 29, as against 35 last week, 22 in this week a year ago, 20 in 1899, 24 in 1898 ‘and 48 in 1897. 2% | * % New York Grain and Produce. 1 e = =4 NEW YORK, Oct. 18.—FLOUR—Recelpts, 20,870 barrels; exports, 18,451 barrels; firm and held higher on the wheat strength. ‘WHEAT—Receipts, 82,450 bushels; exports, 8670 bushels; spot, strong; No. 2 red, 78%c f. o. b. afleat; No. 2 red, T6%c elevator; Northern Duluth, 78%c f. o. b. afloat; No. 1 hard Duluth, $2%c f. o. b. afloat.

The Continent, how- ever, is responding slowly to the improvement, at least as far as American wheat is concerned. Argentine cables report etill further dama; to the crop by drought, and say that the pros- pects are for a small crop. The amount on passage to the United Kingdom has decreased | materially during the past month. Chicago opened firmer on the better foreign advices, and rose lc. There was some foreign | buying. to be reckoned with, however. The West and Southwest and commission houses are big buy- ers. This market was more active and higher again on call, but the shipping grades showed no_further improvement. Spot Wheat—Shipping, @1 02% per ctl. CALL BOARD, SALES.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs. Butter is weak at the decline. Stocks are accumulating, and local dealers have instructed thelr salesmen to sell. All outside orders were shut off by the recent advance, hence there is nothing but the local demand now, and it is insufficient to keep down the arrivals. Cheese remains stationary. Egas show no decline, but they are easy, and any material increase in the receipts would probably send the market down. Receipts were 14,600 pounds of Butter, pounds of Eastern Butter, 43 cases of Eggs. 400 cases Eastern Eggs, 2000 pounds of Cali- fornia Cheese and 1300 pounds Oregon Cheese.
