Co.'S weekly review Of trade says: No
important change In business appears.
but the number Of manufacturing es-
tablishments starting much exceeds the
number Of those stopping during the
week. and % much that the curtail-
ment OF working time in many
cotton mills probably does not
lessen the aggregate productive
force or amount Of wages paid. There
b distinct increase in orders for wool
en- goods. some gain in the silk manu-
facture. q waiting condition, with gain
in one branch, Of boots and shoes, and
indications Of better things coming in
the iron and steel manufacture. All
symptoms are favorable in the money
market.
To many It il the most perplexing
feature OF current events that wheat
does not rise much. though it has adj
vanced X cents for the week. Cotton
fell to TX, after the agreement to close
Fail River and other print cloth works
became known, but recovered the quo
tation OF week ago. 7.31. Sales of
wool have been smaller than in other
recent weeks. and yet are far In excess
Of the consumption Of all mills for .
week. II all were fully employed. There
has been only slight stiffening in
prices.
Prices Of Bessemer pig and gray
foyge at PittsburE have slightly adj
vanced with q much more hopeful feel
ing, Notwithstanding the comparative
narrowness Of the demand for finished
products. Billets are quoted at $15.25,
with scarcely any demand at present,
and rods at 81. while No. "a black sheets
are quoted at only cents. $ =
Failures for the week have been ~
