BRADsTREET's REVIEW

New York, October 6.-Bradstreet's will
 say tomorrow: Distributive trade, which
 was smaller at some markets, is still of en-
 couraging volume; industry is active; year. ly earnings heavy; prices still tend up-
 ward and bank cleanngs increase while
 failures lessen.
 In industrial affairs activity is Wide- spread and strikes are fewer and less costly
 than in most instances. Though lessened
 by holidays, bank clearlngs swelled partly
 by heavy October disbursements and partly
 by general business expansion tend to en-
 large as the season advances. Business
 failures are apparently at a minimum and
 liabilities are certainly less costly than for many years past. Prices as a whole mani- fest aggressive strength. Farm products are especially prominent in this direction; the souths greatest staple, cotton, owing to short crop, advances and owing to active
 speculation, leading in extent of gain with an advance of nearly half a cent for the
 week, of nearly two cents as compared with
 year ago and of quite 21s cents as com
 pared with the low-water prices touched in
 the season of 1S9S-99 The manufactured
 article Is strong in sympathy with the raw
 product, but it is also strengthened by re-
 ported heavy dealings in print cloths and
 by the fact that manufacturers of most
 lines of staple cottons are heavily sold
 ahead. War rumors have played an im-
 portant part in the weeks quota tions, tending In some respects towards checking tine buoyancy of cotton, affecting London wool sales prices and strengthening the tone of wheat and other cereals, which are strong in face of heavy increases in the visible supplies.
 Wool has been in active demand by man. ufacturers and is higher at most markets Woolen goods retain all of their old strength and some classes still tend up- ward. Chartering of ships by the British government has created some excitement in the ocean freight market and quotations for room have been marked up. Dairy products reflect weather conditions in high CT prices, and petroleum Is firm on limited production compared with demand. Am thracite coal has been marked up at tide- water and demand is brisk.

It Was the Wrong Hat

When James Voorhees, prominent in Washington as the actor, author sculptor, statesman, son of the late senator from Indiana, was private secretary to Governor Blue Jeans' Williams of Indiana, General Manson once came into the governors of flee General Manson was auditor of the state. He died not long ago in Terre Haute He was short but corpulent, bald of head but long of beard, which latter was white and reached to the middle of his waistcoat
 The governor was nearly seven feet tall as lank as Lincoln, with long, bony hands, odd-sized feet and large ears He was al- ways clad in blue jeans, grown, spun, woven, dyed and made on his own farm near Vipcennees. His chief fame was his economy and the fact that he had defeated General Harrison for the office. The gen. eral was a typical western man of the world, an ex-congressman and he knew life. The governor was farmer by profession and congressman and governor by accident.
 The-day that the general visited the gov- ernor's office he asked political favor for a friend. The governor hesitated and at length refused. Whereupon the general picked up hat, pulled 1t down over his ears and stumped out of the room in a rage. When he reached his own office he said:
 "I tell you, boys. the old man says 'No.' That's what comes of electing man gov ernor who wears No hat and No. g shoes Bahi"
 At this moment young MT. Voorhees, came in, suave, soft-spoken and smooth.
 General Manson" he said "the gover- nor desires me to present his compliments to you, and begs me to say that he Is al- ways glad to welcome you to his office. You may have your choice of chairs. and put your feet on any desk you please, but he draws the line on you wearing off his new hat"
 "wellw exclaimed the general, as he slipped off the soft hat which fitted him so loosely.
 It was even so.
