CONDITION OF TRADE.

n IT. Dun q Co.'S Review for the Week OF
an Encouraging Nature.
New YORK, Sept. H. R. q. Dun &
Co. s weekly review OF trade says:
Business has met no setback this week,
and continues larger than earlier in August
and larger than year ago, directly after the
panic The country has now passed nearly
three weeks under the new tariff, and all
admit that changes have been OF less
importance as yet than was expected
In some branches business has ma
terially increased it has gained little or
has fallen on In others. Loss in some direc-
lions is explained by crop reports, for the
most favorable estimates of experts put the
loss Of corn as about 4OO,OOO,OOO BUSH
els. whereas the government report Is by
some interpreted as meaning loss OF
! 0OO,0 600 bushels. The opinion of
tic trade does not favor the official
during the week; though receipts have been
very small, exports have practically ceased
and all realize that the shrinkage Of 400 900 900
bushels Is serious, II 1t proves to be no great
er, since 1t must affect prices OF meats for
year OF more. Pork is unchanged but lard
las risen so cents per 100 pounds. Nor
are Official reports encouraging as to
wheat. Western receipts in two weeks have
been 11.1s4,6s7 bushels, against 10674.76l last
year, and Atlantic exports only 2,0747g
against 5,106,562 ast year, and the price Is one
half cent lower. siderable injury Is officially
reported to cotton, but few expect less than
{, 10000 bales, which is more than enough,
and the price Is q sixteenth lower. The great
increase in iron production, which was noted
as following the removal Of coke diniculties, Is
measured by the capacity of furnaces in
blast September l - namely: 151,l13 tons,
against 1886 August I, and the unsold stocks
also decreased IS 1884 tons during the month.
Less activity is seen in dry goods, the rush
of postponed business having abated and there
Is more disposition to defer purchases be-
cause Of somewhat general advances in cotton
goods and because London wool sales are ex-
pected to make the outlook clearer. Strikes in
cotton mills have not ceased and stocks of
print cloths shrink rapidly, but some question
whether recent advances In price can be main
tained with important additions to the present
force.
Failures in the first week Of September as
yet reported show liabilities of only 81 ,43O 07O
OF which Alb,120 was Of manufacturing and
$685., 40 OF trading concerns. The aggregate OF
liabilities reported for August is $1O,697,5 13.
