GREAT BUSINESS MONTH.
Dun's Review Pointed Out the surpris-
ing Featnres--Predicted Fur
Their Increase.

NEW YORK, Sept 3.-R. G.. Dun e.
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade, issued
today, said in part:
The smallest failures ever recorded
in any month for five years were those
of August.
The clearings have been the largest
ever known in August and % per cent
larger than i'll 1892.
The enormous volume of business in
month usually one of the most mac
tive of the year demands attention,
Postponement during the months of
war Of some contracts and purchases
which have now come forward explains
part of the increase, and the strong alb
sorption of securities explains part, but
there has also been great decline in
the average of prices for all commodi-
ties, so that it takes much larger vol
ume of business in tons or bushels to
make up transactions amounting to a
million more than in 1892. It is there
fore strictly true that business is larger
than in the very best of all past years,
and yet there is every prospect of much
further increase.
There is no room to doubt that the
wheat crop, even though it may fall a
shade below some estimates, will prove
the largest ever harvested, and al
though Beerbohm estimates Europe's
crop at 232, 100000 bushels more than
the last, that would be only about an
average yield, while other evidence is
less favorable. Foreign buying has
been strong.
But receipts at the west are increas-
ing, and the price has dropped cents
| for spot, though the September option
| is seven-eighths of cent lower for the
week. Corn has fallen fraction, later
reports indicating a less satisfactory
yield.
The improvement in the iron industry
has not only continued, but becomes
more impressive because. after enorm-
GUS buying of materials has satified
| the needs OF great consumers for months
to come, the demand for products is so
great that both materials and products
gradually advanced in prices.
The advance in tinplates, in spite of
production far greater than was thought
possible not long ago, is evidence that
the consumption of steel in that branch
will be heavy. The wire nail works
also report a better demand, and the
output of Oonnellsville coke has started
up, gaining 10000 tons for the week.
The wooden mills have rather better
orders this week, but not enough as yet
to warrant running nearly full force,
with the price of wool held at the west
much above eastern markets, and by
those markets about cent higher than
the mills are bidding.
Failures for the week have been I'll
in the United States, against 1911 last
year, and % i'll Canada, against 25 last
year.

STUDEBAKER'S TIGERS.
[ One Hundred and Fifty-Seventh Indiana
Reached Home In Bad Shape-Stu-
debaker Scored FLORIDA CAMPS.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 3.-Colonel Stude-
bakers "tigers." the One Hundred and
Fifty seventh Indiana volunteers,
reached indianapolis from the south
yesterday morning.
Colonel Studebaker said in part
"This is not the same regiment took
away from Indianapolis last May The
personality is the same. but it is made
up Of a different SCI II men, They
have fever in their very bones; they are
hungry and their strength is wasted.
1t is all due to the cesspools in which
we lived i'll the south. When the men
left Indianapolis they were strong and
showed their hardness. They were all
right when we left Chickamauga Park.
II charge the condition of my men
to Port Tampa and to the conditions sur
rounding it. When we moved we did
not better our condition much. The
fevers followed us, and day by day the
regiment became weaker. At Fernan-
dina we had the same difficulty to OBJ
tain proper food. The United States
authorities seemed willing enough to
provide us with what we needed, but
Fernandlna is such an out of the way
place that it is difficult to reach it.
One railroad runs to the town.
"When men who have been investi-
eating the condition of the Florida camps
say we have not been in actual need
of food and medical assistance, they do
not know what they are talking about.
My men cannot march in straight lines
on account of their weakness. They
cannot carry their rifles at the right
position. They cannot march any dis
lance without many of them having TO
drop out of the ranks to rest l think
that our coming home has saved the
lives of hundreds in the regiment.
