ness Is concerned, nor, Ia fact, as 10
prices; but there is perhaps what might
DO called an improvement, prospective,
az least, as manifested In inquiries, ana
I'm preparations made for work which
will absorb considerable quantities OF
iron and steel later ia the season. Inc
market reports from the various centres
n read between the lines, will show this
Anticipated improvement. While the
building season is drawing TO q close

it. The country Is waiting for results
at Washington; meantime, the positive
necessities OF a good many Industries
are forcing inquiries FOR supplies which
must be covered. The financial sltua-
ton is somewhat brighter, banks are
making a coed showing at tho expense
OF borrowers. Distribution is lmproy-
ing somewhat, but in hand TO mouth

storekeeDers and distributors through
out the country are determined TO carry
no stocks for the present-L0bOr Irt-

Trade unions Of this country are hoe
ing a hard row this year. There seems
40 be an almost universal desire on the
mart Of the manufactures to break away
from the restrictions which labor or
Ranizations have imposed upon Thorn 10
the operation OF their plants. To very
unusual extent the attempts 20 nOn-un-
ionizs Industrial establishments have
met with success, and now the proper
tion OF mills and factories working out
side OF anton regulations has become so
large that the situation has become
serious and even critical from the stand
point OF labor organizations.-Amcrt-
