THE OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT.
Indications Of the Midsummer Reports
From All Commercial Centers.


From All Commercial Centers.
The midsummer reports from all CONNER
cial centers indicate distinctly better crop
prospects than other official or commercial
accounts, a marked increase In retail distri-
button OF products, an active demand for
goods and general enlargement OF the
working force, with some advance In tho
wages Of more than half million hands
At the same time they show the rapid ad-
vance In prices has somewhat checked the
buying OF n few classes OF products. In some
parts OF the country the outlook for fall trade
Is considered bright
Comparison Of prices for various iron pro-
duets shows IN advance ranging from ~ 2
per cent. since February for wire nails 10 Z. ]
per cent. for anthracite pig. and In all kinds
averaging % per cent. The demand and rise
have come so suddenly that even while the
first order for shipments OF steel billets to
Europe, given some time ago, when prices
were low, Is being announced. the price hero
has advanced from Sl7 in April to S22. %, OF
about 81 per cent.
Wool is stronger both here and abroad.
Sales have been enormous though largely
speculative, but exceeding those OF May and
June ia any previous year. Prices OF cotton
goods continue TO advance, aud the mills are
generally well employed.
Speculation has advanced cotton 3-lG,
though the crop news is favorable, but has
depressed wheat 2 cents In spite OF estimates
that the crop has been materially reduced
since June /. Every year the crop reports
are having less influence, and the time is
ripe for the radical change in the govern,
ment estimates which the department pro.
poses. The crop Of oats is certain TO be
large. and the prospects for corn have greatly
improved within the last few weeks.
There were 6,G57 commercial failures In
the first half OF 1895. against 7039 In the
first half Of 1894, and Q, 6,4Ol in the rst half Of
1899.
