TRADE REVIEW.
A Marked Increase In Retail Dis

OUTLOOK FOR FALL TRADE BRIGHT.
Reports from Commercial Centers Indicate
Better Crop Prospects Than the Of
flclal Accounts Failures for

NEW YORK, July 6.-R g. Dun Il Co. 3
weekly review Of trade says The mid
summer reports from all commercial
centers are Of especial interest, cover
ing the questions on which the future
Of business depends. They indicate
distinctly better crop prospects than
the official or commercial accounts, o
marked increase In retail distribution
Of products, an active demand for
goods and general enlargement Of
the working force, with some advance
In the wages Of more than 100000
hands. At the same time they show
the rapid advance in prices has some-
what checked the buying Of few
classes Of products, In some parts Of
the country the outlook for fall trade
Is considered bright.
Comparison Of prices for various iron
products shows an advance ranging
from 72s per cent since Feberuary
for wire nails to III per cent for an
thracite pig, and in all kinds aver
aging 20 per cent.
Wool Is stronger, both here and
abroad, the London sales opening
July 2 at higher prices, and the aver
age for 1O4 qualities Of domestic wool,
quoted by Coates Bros, has risen nearly
y cent since June 45, Sales have been
enormous, though largely speculative,
but exceeding those Of May and June
in any previous year, being 26,s97, 6lS
pounds domestic and s7,4s7, 100 pounds
foreign against s4,s3s, 400 pounds do
mestic and lo,075, l5O pounds for 1899.
There is growing recorder demand
for heavyweight woolens, and many
new kinds Of lightweights have been
opened with notable Irregularities In
prices, some lower and others higher
than last year. But the manufacture
is better sustained thus far than ex-
pected, and the feeling Is very hopeful,
