BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
Trade Shows an Incronse Over That of Last Year.
FavortihU* Feature* Reported a Week Age Are Maintained—WeukneMM In the Iron Market—Record of « Failure*. CAN’T STRIKE A BALANCE. New York, Sept. 22.—R. G. Dun it Co.’h weekly review of trade says: Plenty of material for encouragement and also for discour&rement can be found by those who seek that and nothing else But business men who want to see the situation exactly as it is find accounts so far conflicting that it is difficult to strike a balance. In the aggregate business Is about a tenth larger than last year, but still falls at>out 23 per cent, below a full volume for the season. The Iron business, after its great increase of output last month, shows a disappointing weakness at all eastern ami central markets, with consumption not largo enough to keep fairly employed the milla la operation In textile fabrics th«»re has been a distinct decrease in trade, as initial stocks for the next season have been ordered and dealers arc now waiting for the retail trade to give encouragement for further purchase. The strike at Fall River and New Bedford has not ceased, and about a dozen additional cotton mills have gone Into operation elsewhere, several with reduced wages, but the orders for the present are narrow and much smaller than usual. Breadstuffs are weaker, possibly because the government official report went so far in predicting short crops so cause a reaction in opinion. While Igwer estimates of corn are commonly accepted, the price fell 34 cents, and men are reasoning that if the official estimate of wheat has been found 100,000.000 bushels out of the way the corn estimate may err from 400.000.000 to 500.000.000 bushels. Failures in two weeks of September show liabilities of only $2 Hrt7.7<Vi. of which *009.716 were of manufacturing and $1,706,048 of trading concerns. Failures during the week have been 212 in the United States, against 321 last year, and in Canada forty-eight against forty last year. Rradntreet's Report. Uradstreet’s review says: The condition of general trade this week is an Improvement over one week ago in that favorable features reported then have been maintained. The surprisingly good reports of business south and, with some exceptions, west are Indicated by special advices from Baltimore, Nashville, Chicago, St. t^ouis, Portland, Ore., and San Francisco. The greatest activity is shown in dry goods, clothing, millinery and shoes. Wool, too, is active, one lot of 700,(X)0 pounds having been sold to a Rhode Island man. St Louis manufacturers and Jobbers of clothing and hats report business heavier than in their preceding experience in like periods. Sales of millinery and dry goods are large, as well as those of lumber. Price movement is downward, cotton having sold to within two points of the lowest price on record, and wheat having gone off sufficiently to make another “lowest record” for that cereal. Other decreases are shown In hogs and cattle at western markets. Gains in volume of business at leading ousiern cities in the preceding fortnight are generally maintained. Neither Buffalo nor Pittsburgh announces galas or reactions, except iu prices for metals.
ELEVATORS CLOSED. Failure of the Corn Crop Looked Upon a* n Great Calamity. New York, Sept. 25. Mr. Charles Counselman, of Chicago, who is here, said Monday: “I have been all over the states of Iowa. Kansas and Nebraska, and especially the Rock island system, on which I have a large line of elevators. In all my history of twenty years connection with the grain trade I have not seen such a failure of the lorn crop, and at points where they did expect to have a little corn they tlnd now upon examination the cob has but little corn on it Coupled with the fact they raised no hay it is in my mind a calamity. I ha\e closed one-half of my system of elevator| because there is no grain to handle. Traveling through Nt braska you can see the people moving out of the country.” FOUR KILLED. i;oiU>r Durst* on a North Dakota FarmTour Seriously Injured.
