Drn1's ReVie7U of Trade.

NEW YORK. Aug. 25.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade Tomorrow will say:
Nothing IS more eloquent than the facts. Ac-
tual payments through the principal clearing
houses were % per cent larger than last year
and So per cent larger than in the same week
In 1892. For the month thus far the daily aver
age of payments is 26.3 per cent larger than
last year and Sc per cent larger. than in 1892.
Tonnage from Chicago in three weeks has been
SO per cent larger than last year and TAG per
cent larger than in 1892. 1t will not be sug-
gested by anybody that such an astonishing
years except the last was exaggerated Most
people really regarded last years expansion
as something like freak. lior is the differ
ence in amount Of payments mainly due to
rise in prices, for prices Of several kindred
articles actually range lower on the whole than
in August, 1882.
1t is a consumers business also Perhaps
never before have demands fer actual use con-
trolled business and prices with little spec
ulatiOn to anticipate higher markets. In fact,
the rise in most articles has gone further than
speculative opinions warrant. Practically all
industries are some months bx3lind the require
ments for actual use, and III Ts1any much of
the output next year is already sold.
Iron works which supply Pittsburg sold
up far into 1900 and can do nothing, though
prices much beyond what they received
paid by those who must have iron this year.
The enormous demand for more railroads and
more rails and cars. more vessels, warehouses
and buildings to handle the extraordinary bust
ness in progress cannot be met as quickly as
men would like and work of all sorts is de-
layed. from the biggest war vessel to the
smallest factory
Western receipts of wheat longer keep
UP with the extraordinary movement a year
ago. falling 800, 600 bushels behind for the
week but in four weeks have been 1887. 414
bushels against IA 354, ,621 last year. Atlantic
exports slightly larger than last year,
and in four weeks II, 421, ,322 bushels, -four in
cluded against II, ,2S5 last year, while Pa
cifc exports have been 1872 024 bushels for the
week and in four weeks l. 6S3, 1853. against 1,531,-
954 last year.
Failures for the week have been 1853 in the
United States against 179 last year, and 16
in Canada, against rs last year.
