DUN'S WEEKLY REVIEW.
Business for the Week Has Been Fair. but
Not Phcnomcnal-Evidc of lin.
prOvcment Exhibited in Certain Direc.

Not Phcnomcnal-Evidc of I'm.
provcment Exhibited in Certain Dircc.
tiOns.
New York, Oct 1S.--Dun's review to-
morrow will say: The events OF the
week are promising in nature, though
to speculative markets not entirely en-
couraging. The great advance in cot
ton had arrested exports and SO de-
ranged exchanges that shipments of
gold were for a time aDprehended, but
the break In the market indicates that
the natural movement of the product
may soon be restored. The halting of
demand and moderate yielding of prices
in the great Industrial markets show
that season of reasonable attention
to natural conditions has arrived, and
gives hope that the future demand will
be more nearly proportional to actual
consumption.
The week has brought a little further
decline in iron and steel products, in
hides and leather and a more yielding
tone In boots and shoes. Wheat does
not go out freely. and the attempt to
advance prices on Monday was followed
by an immediate decline. The Atlantic
exports, -four included. have been in the
past three weeks 4,55S,455 bushels,
against 7,2iS,111 last year, and the big
shipments from Russia and OF late from
Argentina show that the world is not
yet obliged to pay Atlantic prices for
American wheat.
The iron industry is still fully engaged
on old orders, but new business is so
scanty that many of the works are
seeking 1t at some concessions in price,
and the only large contracts have been
at $1.75 to $3.50 for bridge plates, quoted
at 1.9 to 90 cents. Quotations are not
lower, though any good order COM
mands some discount. Billets sell at
s21 and rod at $2S at Pittsburg, want OF
business In wire and wire nails continu-
ing. Mills have to complete in pig iron
and other products with spectators
who took large quantities on advanc-
ing prices. and actupl consumption
will not be fairly measured until the
effects Of the speculation are out Of the
way.
Failures for the week haze been 2G3
in the United States against 253 last
year, and 46 in Canada against 43 last
year.

MINERS STRIKE PROBABLE.
Many Men in Clarified Region to Leave
Work TODAY,

Phillipsburg. Pa, Oct. 1S.--Until to-
day 1t was thought by many miners
and business men that in order to post
pone the miners strike. which Is to be-
gin tomorrow. the operators would ask
for a conference, but, not having done
so, strike of more or less magnitude is
now certain.
Equally sure is 1t that the operators
will not yield from their position not
TO grant the advance demanded. If the
strike Is obeyed generally, from 5000 to
5000 miners will be idle In the Clarified
and Beech Creek regions alone.
