IMPROVING TRADE PROSPECTS.
That the long-looked for good times
are coming ut last, and that business Is
everywhere becoming more prosperous,
cannot now be questioned Week after
week we have pointed out the signs of
improving trade and the indications of
higher tendency in prices. The outlook
steadily grows better, and from all sec
tlons the report is almost unanimous as
to "a decided change for the
better. IN its issue of last Mon
day the New York World published
interviews with a large number of
business men, In which the improvement
in trade was very clearly set forth. II. b.
Clatllin & Co. say that trade is better now
than it has been since 1880, and prices
are higher than last year. When the
labor troubles began we were on the eve
of great prosperity. 1t has been delayed
little, but now production Is quickened
and more spindles are running, and more
|
good. Messrs. VIM. Turnbull & Co. report
that jobbers are jubilant over the large
business they are now doing. The mills,
they say:
Commenced on heavy goods from
thirty to sixty days earlier than usual.
When duplicate orders for spring goods
were lodged the mills could not fiji Them
then because they were at work on heav-
Ter stuff. Already we have been obliged
to withdraw one line OF goods, some
thing that is seldom known. The orders
will keep the mills busy for months
and in some cases they will not finish
delivering our present orders until
February. 1t is never safe counting on
spring goods to be delivered after Janu-
airy, because they will not be in season
The drummers who have been travelling
through the West have ell brought in an
unusually large number Of orders, and
this has made things lively. The indica-
tions are excellent for the future, and
trade will continue to improve rather
than decline"
