SEEN BY BRADSTREET
COMMERCIAL REVIEW REPORTS
ON BUSINESS.
Trade and Price Condi-
lions Still Reign-Upward Tendency
Visible in Some Products-A Ticket
Agent Held Up by Three Men.

Bradstreet's says: Satisfactory trade
and price conditions apparently still
reign. So few, in fact, are the reports
of poor trade that favorable reports may
be said to be almost unanimous. An ex-
panded volume of fall trade is indicated
by the aggregate of bank clearings for
the week, though reports from some mar
kets point to the greatest rush being over.
Prices as a rule maintain all their for
mer strength, decreases being few and
relatively unimportant. In several lines,
notably the cereals, cotton, petroleum,
iron and steel, the tendency is toward
higher levels. Cotton has been notably
strong and active. Wool is higher at
London and sympathetically strong here,
and expectations Of a good export trade
for fine grades Of domestics are enter
tanned. Wheat. including -four, ship
ments for the week aggregate 4,63O,76o
bushels, against 4,536,552 bushels last
week. Corn exports for the week aggre-
gate 1874, 965 bushels, against 3,2S2,7oI
bushels last week. Failures for the week
have been 154 in the United States,
against 173 last year, and IL in Canada
against 16 last year."
