THE indications of better con dition
of business everywhere are stronger
with the close of this week than at the
beginning, There is evidently settled
conviction prevailing that better times
are at hand, and that conviction grows
in strength steadily. The improvement
is probably due to the opening influence
of the fall trade more than to the ap-
preaching repeal of the silver-purchas-
ing law. There are no surplus stocks of
goods in the hands Of wholesalers or
retailers, and the first activity in trade
circles is at once felt by the whole COM
munity. Nobody is yet overworked
filling orders, but there is at least some
ground for disinissing the fear that still
worse conditions are yet to be faced.
