Boots and Shoes,
Trade in this line gives signs of still further

Trade in this line gives signs of still further
improvement in the past week. The Situa-
tion and outlook are thus sized up by the
Boston Herald:
As noted last week, there is a better feel
ing in the boot and shoe market. Manufact-
urers are feeling better, and, with satisfac-
tory business doing in spring goods for thus
early in the season, the outlook is satisfac-
tory. There are a large number of shoe buy
are being disposed of. The West has excellent
crops, and will be able to buy and pay for
more goods than has been the case of late.
Duplicate orders for fall goods are not COM
ing in to any great extent, though n fair
number of orders is being received.
The interest now centers upon spring goods,
and the outlook in that direction is more
shown by the increased demand for leather
noted below, and also by the statements of
prominent dealers, who are looking forward
TO good season in spring goods. The
financial outlook is better, and, with a more
liberal policy toward manufacturers on the
part of the banks, nothing will stand in the
way of the realization of the brightest
hopes. Collections are not all that could be
desired, perhaps, but the reasons stated in
this column a week ago show that it is in no
wise a cause for anxiety.
While the jobbing houses are well repre-
sented here, they are very careful in regard
to orders, and are buying in conservative
manner. This is especially true of goods
which must be paid for at an early date.
is of fair proportions and certainly warrants
the hopeful feeling now freely expressed by
the leading houses in the trade. Confidence
has been restored to q great extent, and the
course of the market is fairly expected to
show steady improvement from now on.

Groceries.

Trade in this line has developed n o new
features since last report. Coffees are quiet
at the decline already noted, and sugars are
fairly steady Demand for the latter is
scarcely as active as it was a few weeks ago
when fruits were at their lowest. Canned
goods are dull and slow, for the reason that
fresh fruits are so abundant.

BOOT AND SHOE TRADE IMPROVING
OFFICE OF PFTsBURG DISPATCH,
SATURDAY, October 8. {

OFFICE OF PIFTsBURG DISPATCH
SATURDAY, October 8.
In general produce lines there have been
few new developments in the past week
Domestic fruits are on the wane, and those
from the tropics are in better demand.
Grapes are still in bountiful supply. Ar
rivals in this line have reached dozen car
loads in day during the present week.
Peaches are in light supply, and prices are
sitter than they were week ago. Veget-
ables of all kinds are dull and slow. The
low price of potatoes has had the effect
of keeping supplies from this market, and
stock is scarce.
Sweet potatoes are heavy stock ut our quo
tttions. In grocery lines the feature of the
week has been the drop in coffee. Sugars
are not SO active as they were a week ago, q
fact explained by the wane of fruits.
Dairy products are practically the same in
price as week ago, but choice stock Is very
firm at quotations.
Hides and Calfskins.
There are no signs of improvement in
markets so far as buff hides and calfskins
are concerned. Heavy steer hides are. how
close. The heavy run of lightweight beeves
has had the effect of crowding markets with
lightweight hides and as result, prices are
barely maintained on this grade. Heavy
weights are not IN sufficient supply for de-
mand.
Following are prices paid by Allegheny
stock 0eliyered here.

vaults, perfect ventilation, good light, spa
cious coupon rooms, separate apartments
for women. Boxes rented at s. and up
ward. MwF
