THE STATE OF TRADE.
Business in Guaranteed Districts
Almost mt "a StandstiII.

| NEW YORK, October 1-Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say:
General trade is marked by increased
| activity in WOOL hides, iron, and steel,
and their manufactured products, but
| business in the quarantined districts is
| almost at a standstill, and at all except
| few Northwestern distributing centres
| in the spring wheat States, where busi-
ness is relatively most active, there is a
check in the demand for dry-goods. hats.
and clothing Favorable reports come
from the region extending from Knox
Vile to st. Paul, and from Omaha to
Milwaukee. The tendency is TO increase
estimates OF the wheat crops. and in
crease the probable yield of cotton.
The principal movement shows a long
list of improved quotations this week in
Guiding various iron and steel staples,
WOOL hides, print-cloths. lumber nails,
copper. pork, beef, coffee. and sugar.
The increases are confined to Il nominal
advance for anthracite coal, Is cents for
Bessemer pg-iron, fractional gains for
leaf tobacco, naval stores butter. and
lard, and another advance for woollen
goods. Potatoes have reacted from the
extremely high prices at the West Lead
is lower, and so are corn. oats, and
flour, in sympathy with wheat. which
dropped cents on Bradstreets report.
Cotton is off.
Wheat exports flour included as wheat
from both coasts of the United States and
Montreal, this week. slightly exceed those
of last week. the total aggregating 5,e2i-
246 bushels, against 5,SO8,S25 bushels
last week, ,294 in the same
week a year ago. 2,6l3,S66 bushels in
1895, 3,243.l 100 bushels in 1894, and $4,000
bushels in 1893. Corn exports show a con-
siderable falling off, the total being BIOS,
COL bushels, against 600 bushels last
week. 3165,OO0 bushels a year ago l.3S3. 75i
bushels In 1885, 5000 bushels in 1894, and
Gi2, 600 bushels in 1898.
The total number OF business failures
in the United States for nine months,
reported by Bradstreet's, is 1888. de-
crease of 10 per cent. from the CORE
spending total last year, but per cent.
more than In 1894, and IL per cent fewer
than In the corresponding period OF 1893.
This years failing corporations. firms
and individuals report sllS,iSiOC0 liabili-
ties. a total 30 per cent. smaller than
one year ago. about per cent. larger
than in the like nine months of 1895. and
of 1894, and GA per cent. less than In the
corresponding period of 1888. The rate
of failure in proportion to the number in
business is decreased. With reference
10 liabilities, the falling off is noticeably
rapid.
Business failures throughout the Do
minion of Canada numbered l0l for the
past nine months, falling off, as COM
pared with last year, OF $50, or less than
10 per cent The total liabilities are
s10.653, 900 this year, against sl22l9,OOo last
year.

DUN'S REVIEW.

~
view of trade will say tomorrow:
The failures during the third quarter
of 1897. obtained yesterday by telegraph,
were 1903, with liabilities OF SIS. S.26l. OF
which 20 were in banking, for 1881, OS9.
The commercial failures-2Si,, with ha-
bilities of s25.576,le2, average only 1870
each-lower than any other quarter for
twenty-three years.
The amount of defaulted liabilities is
the smallest in any quarter for five
wears and in fifteen years only SIX quar-
tiers have shown smaller Liabilities.
The manufacturing failures, Col, with
liabilities of $9431. 1871, average but SLANT
each and the trading failures 2.l6i. with
liabilities of so, s25065. average but S.s27
each. both smaller in average OF liabili-
ties than in any previous year OF which
classified records exist.
The volume of legitimate business col
lections are little larger than in the same
month of 1892 for while the great in
crease OF IA per cent. at New York for
the week might be supposed due to specu-
iative activity, In spite of the establish
ment and growth of the Stock Exchange
clearing house, yet payments through the
principal clearinghouse outside of New
York exceed those OF 1882 by 80 per cent
for the week and 2 per cent. for Septem-
Der. New York makes settlements for
a large part OF the country. and the daily
average. including this city. was in Sep

year. sls3.si0.0oo In 1894. sl22. $4,000 In 1893
and Sl7s, 1900 In 1859, so that the gain
over the same month In the best of re-
cent years is II per cent.
SPECULATIVE MARKETS.
These evidences of reviving prosperity
are the more important because the
prices for most manufactured products
have advanced but moderately, and are
much below the level Of 1892. while the
speculative markets are all declining,
with curious unanimity. as II the large
crops which make grain and cotton weak
would not assure increased business 10

TINkLE OF SILVER DOLLARS.

Trensurer Roberts is Taking Unusual
Pains to Have an Accurate Count.
The count of money in the vaults of the
treasury is still in progress and will not be
finished for several weeks. The unusually
long time occupied in the count is due to
the cautiousness of Treasurer Roberts. In
all previous counts the money has been
weighed in bags, there being LOCO silver
dollars in each bag. Two tests would be
applied to these bags, depending on whether
the dollars were new or had been used. A
bag of LOCO new and unused dollars weighs
about fifty-eight pounds and fifteen ounces
a bag of badly used dollars weighs about
ffty-eight pounds and nine or ten ounces,
a difference OF IS or s.. Counting this way
the count did not take so long, but Treas
urer Roberts has insisted that in one of the
vaults, in which old silver dollars are
stored, each dollar shall be counted. This
is now being done, and the tinkle of silver
dollars IS heard for many feet Throughout
the treasury. Twenty-one young ladies have
been assigned to this count The vault
which held the new silver dollars was
counted in the regular way, and the gold
In the vaults will be counted by weight.
Treasurer Roberts says that the use of a
silver dollar soon reduces its weight If n
is al old coin it loses considerable SimnIv
the counting of a new silver dollar causes
