In the west corresponding reports come
from Omaha, where better feeling is re-
ported throughout the tributary region
and there is more buying of dry goods,
clothing, shoes and groceries Duluth also
1Inds business improved and jobbers in
several lines have been encouraged. St
Louis and Kansas City report stimulation
in wholesale as well as retail lines due in
part to an influx of visitors to the carni-
walls. From the south the most favorable
reports come from jacksonville. where
wholesale trade is good and retail trade
improving. Merchandise is moving salts
factorily from Savannah, and from
Charleston and Chattanooga
The previously reported large volume of
business of Chicago jobbcrs is maintained.
At n number of points east and west de-
mand for money has increased, and
changes in the character of mercantile
collections as a rule, are in the direction
of Improvement. Wheat, corn and oats.
have advanced from previous lowest
levels. Some varieties of lumber naval
stores, tinplate and a few other staples
have remained steady in price. but refined
sugar is lower for reasons which NAV or
