business Continues DraggiEe-Srpcula

Crops.
New YORK. July 3l.-R. q. Dun IL
Co.'S weekly review of trade will say:
Business continues dragging and dull
In commercial circles there seems very
general and growing confidence that the
business of the fall will be large and
profitable and some improvement is seen
but not enough as yet to justify sanguine
views. Trade at the south is peculiarly
depressed because there is too much
cotton. Again in parts of the west
where crops failed last year trade has
not yet recovered from the great de-
preston resulting and as long as the
corn crop is in doubt complete recovery
is not to be expected In several states
legislation hostile to capital caused much
disturbance. A further collapse of real
estate speculation in many parts of the
west and south has brought severe losses
and embarrassment to many. At the
east monetary uncertainties have a
powerful influence.
European difncultles do not pass as
quickly Or fully as was expected and
now serious financial trouble is appre-
hended in Russia because of the failure
Of crops, which will only help this count
ry in the end. There is growing doubt
whether the movement of crops here will
not cause temporary drain greater than
the eastern money markets can meet, but
if the grain can be sold gold will come.

bought English consols to a considerable
amount, and leading trust company is
