RADsTREETs ON THE WEEK.

tomorrow will say:
Favorable features are still largely in
the ascendant, and the current OF bus
iness is running full the country over.
In some directions, indeed, notably in
the matter Of forwarding of general mer-
chdndlse, grain, ore, COaG, iron, and lum-
Der, complaints OF insufficient transporta-
tion facilities have become more marked
Illustrative of this arc the statistics OF re
ceipts or shipments of live stock at West
Crn markets, Of ore and coal at Lake
Erie, and Of cotton at the South. the vol
umc of which this year has heavily eX-
ceedcd previous years.
Seasonable weather conditions East
North, and West have expanded retail
trade and enlarged reaSSorting orders
from jobbers. Weather conditions at the
south have, however not been entirely
favorable and complaints of slowness Of
cole ctions due to the backward cotton
crop, or the lower prices paid therefor
have been mere numerous. A favorable
feature as regards this latter situation,
however, is the turn for the better in
prices, "a result primarily Of the market
having become oversoid on the down side
though aided by smaller movement Of
cotton to market recently.
Following the active buying by manu-
iacturers some weeks ago at the East
has come sustained activity in wool at
leading Eastern and Western markets
without, however, any SPECIAL gain in
prices. Tn, iron and steel situation has
gained rather than lost in activity and
stIangth,and production and consumption
at present find no parallel in the past. An
uufaVOraDie feature noted at the West is
the continuance of the drought in some
parts Of Kansas and Missouri, where live
stock is being rushed to market because
OF insufficient water supplies.
Bank clearings, helped BY enlarged
speculation, have expanded heavily, and
ii Is noted that at all leading cities clear
ings are larger than last week and this
week a year ago. Railroad earnings re-
ports to Bradstreet' confirm tho most
sangUine predictions Of good business en-
joyod by the transportation interests.
The Government report issued this
week confirms earlier predictions of a
considerable shortage in leading food
products. particularly corn, oats, pota-
toes, and buckwheat. Manipulation in
print cloths some weeks ago caused an
advance in the face of declining raw cot
ton, and this week the reverse has hap
penCd. Print cloths have lost Ii of q

The frmnsss and even buoyancy of the
stock market all day yesterday led the
street generally to take the view that the
sharp break on Thursday was prUfes-
fional matter Of no Importance whatever
except to the people unfortunate enough
to be caught on the wrong side. The pro-
fessionals had bought stocks tremendous
~ in adyance Of the Northern Pacific deal
and they were more than usually unani-
nous In their desire to sell on the good
news when IL was announced. J [ is not
believed that the large Interests had any
thing to do with the break except to pre-
vent its going further, when they consid-
cred the realizing to have been sufficient
for the health OF the market Many Of
the critics are of the opinion that these
large interests are still committed 70 tn

that there is "A vast amount OF new stocks
