The Business Situation Shows Increasing
Strength.

row will say:
strength of the general business situation
is furnished this week by the course of
prices. Almost without exception values
of staples remain firm at previous quota
tions or manifest still further pronounce
ed tendency toward higher level. This,
too, has occurred in the face of a rather
smaller distribution in the ordinary trade
channels than has been noted in recent
weeks. So far as autumn and winter
trade is concerned, the complaint of un-
seasonably mild weather restricting retail
distribution is reported from many cities.
But rising superior to this. and to the
unquestionably smaller distribution at
first hand is the accumulated strength of
textiles, particularly cotton goods, which
reflect some additional strength of the
raw product, due to smaller receipts and
better foreign advces, but in a larger
measure also portraying the influence of
active demand coming on market ex-
ceptionally bare of stocks. A further add
vance in print cloths, feature this week,
has brought the quotation for standard
