The volume OF business throughout
the country is practically unchanged.
New features do not point TO improve
ment IN prospects for fall business. In
dustries generally continue quiet, with
more men idle than week ago. The
most significant feature was higher
rate for money early in the week and
some difficulty in obtaining time money.
This disa ppeared with the manifest re-
action against the free silver sentiment
which followed the silver demonstra-
ton at New York, August u. Mercal-
tile collections are difficult 20 make at
several centers in the south and the
same conditions prevail IN the west, at
Cleveland, Detroit. Milwaukee and St.

iron or steel, Notwithstanding the ca
pacity OF furnaces in blast was restrict

The brighter side Is found in generally
favorable crop conditions at TIE south.
