THE TREND OF TRADE.
Observation and Comment by
the Merchant Princes Of
st. Paul.
The Tide Setting Strong To-
ward a Favoring Of Home
Products.
Jobbing Trade Is Vigorous as
Ever and Collections Brac-
ing Up.
An Interesting History Of the
Trend of Traffic for a
Week.

When merchants are ready to show
their books to the trade reporters there
must be condition of more than ordi-
nary satisfaction in business. That
condition continues mong the whole
sale men OF st. Paul, who have no back
ward step to Offset last weeks excellent
report. The NOV ement in favor Of pat
rOniZing home industries continues with
Increased vigOr. 1t is keynote of the
new Commercial club, which will open
with membership of about 1000 BUSH
ness men. and i'll many places home
made goods are demanded, and legltI,
mate home trade is patroniZed
where no distinction was made
before, or, rather. where the preference
had been given to the products of New
York and other Eastern cities. The
time is near at hand when Chicago, with
the worlds fair for lever, will attract
people from all parts of the Union. 1t
is during that time that the residents of
this Northwest should, while paying
their respects to the Windy City, not
forget their fealty to the manufacturing
and other business enterprises of their
own section. Many who formerly sent
East for clothes, shoes. cigars and other
requirements have found that they
can have their wants supplied
with just as good stock at
just as reasonable prices by buying at
home, and thus in many cases they
cause more employment in and foster
the growth of their Northwestern cities.
1t is not as fashionable as it was to sport
New York-made clothes, and these Or
CARNATIONS have had a great deal to do
with keeping the ball rolling in favor of
the Northwest.
They have also had their fraternal eff
feet among the business men. Two of
the leading wholesale houses-hardware
and grOceIieS-met the fire fiend during
the week. Stocks and buildings to the
value of three-quarterS OF million
dollars were destroyed. and yet these
firms were accommodated at once with
goods by their brothers in business, and
both houses are making shipments and
taking orders almost as though no fire
had touched them. The members of
the jObbers' union seemed to vie with
each other in making the situation as
easy as possible for the firms who had
seen their stocks burn up in 4 night.
The same action might have been taken
even had there been no nni0n, but it is
generally conceded that it would have
been nowhere near as effective.
Probably the most interesting point
in the interviews given below is the ref
erence to land purchases by resident
farmers, particularly in the southern
part of Minnesota, which was made by
Col. r. NJ. Newport. Trade continues
to increase in most of the lines. The
cold snap last week set people to buy
ing heavier goods in clothing and I'M
derwear. This was especially notice
able in the country towns where the

Among the views expressed by leaders were

Among the views expressed by leaders were
the following:
NJ Auerbach, President Union Bank-It has
been surprising the amount of money that
has come from the East to the Northwest
by express this fall. 1t exceeded the de-
mandS for crop movement, which has been
distributed over the season to such an eX-
tent that the money markets here felt no
stringency on account of the demands for
moving grain. Money is easier row than it
has been. and sufficient for all legitimate
business. The conditions in Germany and
France have not affected our operations
Rates are about the same as those of last
week. With the close of navigation greater
stocks will probably pile up in elevators and
more active demand for money from the
milling and grain interest should follow. It's
a desirable line of business for the banks
good people and excellent security. do not
look Tor that demand to make any noticeable
difference in the general situation. 1 see no
undesirable feature in it.
X. NJ. Newport d. son, Mortgage Loans
Reports from Southern Minnesota and North .
ern Iowa, said Col. Newport show that as
the farmers market their grain they are pay
ing off old accounts, lifting many mortgages
and. IL frequent cases, they are buying the
forty and eighty-acre pieces adjacent 10 their
farms. These purchases confirm the reports
of general prosperity, and show the conf
deuce that actual residents have in the future
of their business. Along the Hastings & Da
kota railroad and the lines in the southwest
ern part of the state the land contracts are
being paid up, and the residents are buying
more land. These conditions have prevailed
all through the EMBARRASSING district from
Nebraska and Kansas nOrthward. We have
reports from all through there; one from
Beatrice Neb., says that the payments on
old mortgages this season amount to much
more than the sum of new Indebtedness.
This progress of prosperity will continue OH
its northward march. North Dakota has
only been able to handle part of her magnif-
cent crop as yet Her people have been too
busy 10 bother with marketing all of their
grain. and much of ii is still in the stacks UNI
threshed. Grain well stacked is compare
lively safe, and while many Dakota farmers
will not begin TO realize freely on their wheat
and other grains before January or FebTu-
Gry yet before another summer comes most
of them VIII have their debts well cleaned
off. fair profits in hand, and some of them
will be increasing the area of their farms.
John II. Allen, Allen, Moon & o., Whole
sale Grocers-Trade is very steady. What we
call a good. solid trade. The collections are
growing better every day. Farmers have got
about through blowing now and are com
mencing to trade a little. The indications

purchased freely while they are now
temporarily shut off from their work.
Threshng from the stack is still going
oh in many places. The country ele-
vatOrs are crowded, and extra cars are
scarce. On this point complaint is quite
noticeable in some localities. The roads
are taxed to their utmost to care for the
wheat that has been going eastward TO
the terminal points at the rate of about
100000 bushels per day. This condi-
ton is about the same as during last
week. While the railroads have
stopped taking grain for lake shipment,
the navigation from Duluth has not
closed. Vessels are being loaded there
and good many are chartered to be
loaded. The elevator capacity has been
kept open by the vessels, and the cars
are being taken care of quite satisfac-
tOrily at the terminals. Wheat
is lower in price, and farmers
don't seem to be very anxious to sell.
Dealers IN holiday goods, notions and
fancy goods had rushing trade. while
hat men and furriers were very busy.
In various lines of manufacture more
men were employed during the week,
clothing man ufacturers reporting the
largest increase. Trade in lumber
quiet but steady. Dry goods fair, with
values firm. Prices of merchandise
generally low, with dealers looking for
an upward movement in cattle values
when shipments from the ranges slack
up. Collections are good. and generally
better than during the same week one
year ago. The leading feature is the
settlements of old Indebtedness.
At the mercantile agency of r. G. Dun &
Como noticeable change in the situation of the
wholesale trade was reported The heavy
movement of wheat the filling up Of eleva-
tors and some shortage OF cars were matters
of com ment and advances III prices seemed
to be mainly dependent on the foreign de-
mand. although wheat moved up three
fourths of cent per bushel on Friday in
sympathy with Il fiVe-cent advance in No
yember corn. Their reports show that in
some cases farmers have found the elevators
SO full that they have had to carry their
wheat back to their farms
