X. G. Dun on the situation In Trade Cir
cles-Not Very Encouraging.
New YORK, Oct. ib.-R q. Dun q


New YORK. Oct. ib.-R. g. Dun &
Co. S weekly review OF trade says;
business Is still waiting for the develop
ment OF retail trade. There Is little better
demand In some industries. but not so good
IN Others Wholesale dealers In nearly oil
branches are halting because business does
not yet show distinctly what IL is to be. Lower
prices for the great farm staples and lower
wages In some establishments, hinder
purchases for consumption. while polit-
ical interest and uncertainty also have
some retardlng influence. Meanwhile large
imports and small exports OF merchan-
disc, with inadequate employment for
money here, are raising the rates OF foreign
exchange so that possibilities OF gold exports
somewhat affect the stock market The halt
ing attitude for the moment is disturbing TO
those who have looked for continued gain.
though rightly considered Il Is the natural con-
sequence OF conditions which were 70 be cx-
pected az this season.
The government crop reports are not great
~ trusted and yet have an influence and nctu-
ally exaggcrate tho tendency toward lower
prices because they are supposed 10 report
all the crops too low. Men calmly reckon
that II the government report indicates
over 400,Oo0,ooc bushels OF wheat tho
crop must be over b0OOOO,O00 bushels and
the price is slightly lower. Corn has been
stronger. for receipts are hardly quarter and
exports barely an eighth OF last year, and the
question Is whether the actual yield. II above
the government estimate, may not prove lower
than has been supposed.
The iron industry records larger produce
ton IN September than In any other month
this year but as prices are gradually weak
onlng because OF insufficient demand for lin
ished products, some works are preparing 70
close or shorten time.
