INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 10.
The volume of trade in the week closing to-day in
all departments highly satisfactory and the sales
will doubtless aggregate in excess of those of any
week of this year thus far and what is still BETTER
the future promises better things Travelling
statesmen report country merchants as buying with
more freedom than at any time for some years past

look that the volume of general trade throughout
the country continues of gratifying proportions, the
distribution of merchandise in almost every depart
nent being maintained upon basis that is not only
in excess of the corresponding period last year. but
that from week to week shows steady progress and
general improvement Perhaps the most satisfactory
feature in connection with the present condition
of commercial affairs is the absence of fever
ish and unhealthy speculation in any depart
ent of business. and the fact that thus far opera
tions have been conducted without initiating values
straining credit overtradng that brings with it
action and general feeling of uneasiness that really
unsettes confidence. What has been accomplished
thus far in the way of charging the volume of
mercal activity and strengthening the feeling of
bity seems to have been simply the natural develop

tributive movement of merchandise has increased in
response to the growing demands of actual consump

relations of supply and demand have been very evenly
maintained railroad earnings have felt the impulse of
increased traffic, which is being transported at
