BUSINESS CONDITIONS;
Cotton Brings Slightly Better Price

Below is the weekly trade reviews OF Il. G.
Dun & Co., and Bradstreet for the past
week: There Is no distinct improvement in
business. although conditions favor it. Con-
ldence slowly rises, specul lative. buying of
materials for future use continues, imports of
gold do not cease and the Bank of England
has not tried to check them by further ad-
vance In rates. as the weight of the demand
now falls upon France. But an enormous
business is held back until the future is more
clear. Names great majority had no such
influence as many anticipated from a ver-
dict less emphatic. TO many minds, nothing
an Eastern State can do In n contest repre-
sentea as sectional gives sufllcientassurances
how the Western and Southern States may
decide
In cotton. hides, wool and pig iron, buying
openly speculative in character marks tho
current business Resumption OF work by n
good part of the Fall River cotton mills anu
advances in some kinds OF cotton goods
helped to raise the price OF middliny uplands
TO g 7-S cents again, though: realizing sent it
down to Sl-2. Thejavorite 'spctulative,peti-
mate. which was about 100, coo bales in error
year ago, alarmed many by naming Z ,s0O,-
600 bales Ss the minimum and 9 000, 900 as tho
maximum, q range wide enough in itself to
suggest doubt, and either quantity with
stocks carried over is more than the world
has ever consumed
Failures for the past week have been 81 in
the United States against 3l3 last year and SO
in Canada, against 80 last year. 49,.
BRADSTREETS REroRT. i
Tho moderate Improvement in trade OF the
past few weeks continues and is emphasized
by speculative purchas"s Of wool re-.
newed buying of surplus stocks of cotton
goods, increased demand for seasonable fab
rics, continued confidence among manufac-
ture-s Of iron and steel that there will be- ap
early revival in demand, and Improvement
in request for staple goods in the South At
lantic and Gulf States. 1
The volume of sales Of general merchap-
disc shows,a small gain over last week and
the feeling among wholesale merchants is ono
OF more confidence in u comparatively early,
Improvement. Unexpectedly large Sales Of
dry goods are reported from Boston, Chicago
and st. Louis. with indications they may con-
tinuc throughout the month. At the moro
important Northwestern centres larger sales
OF hats shoes, hardware and drugs are re-
ported, although the total'is less than N II
like portion OF last year. Much o{ .the gain
at the South is due to the rapidjty with
which the cotton crop is' being gathered and
marketed.
