NEW YORK. Aug. 16-Exceedingly ir-
regular tendencies characterized today
stock market and at no time during the
business session was there any uniformity
of tone. The publication of further pes
simistic estimates of the corn crop by an
authority of some repute appeared to be

the week.
The detection of the employees of the
Illinois Steel Company was another dis

was logically reflected in the dealings in

showed little disposition toward recoV-

There were no other developments OF

The bituminous coal shares, however,
showed the most extensive advances that

Norfolk and Western and Chesapeake

movement in the railway list had a
somewhat reactionary tendency: although
sharp recoveries were occasionally shown.
Declines extending to over one point were
noted in both st. Paul, Union Pacific, and

DUN's REVIEW OF TRADE.
The Distribution of Merchandise
Proceeding Satisfactorily.


NEW YORK, Aug 16.-Dun's weekly re-
view of trade tomorrow will say:
THE distribution of merchandise has
proceeded this week in steady and sat
isfactory scale throughout the East, and
in the West and Southwest the relief from
the long drought and heat is beginning to
be reflected in a larger retail trade, so
that for the quarter promise is held out
of a larger business than last year.
THE industrial situation has improved
with the refusal of the steel workers in
the Chicago district to strike and the
effect in other lines of manufacture has
been wholesome. Crop conditions In the
territory most affected by the recent
drought are improving and the weather
has been highly favorable in nearly all
districts east of the Missouri River
though rains have interrupted the spring
wheat harvest.
Railroad earnings continue to show
remarkable gains. the first week of Au-
gust returns indicating 99 per cent in
crease over last year and 1914 over 1899
Bank clearings at New York gained
i27 per cent for the week over 1900 and
Ga over 1893; while the gain is IFS per
cent at leading cities outside New York
over 1890 and l0.9 over 1899
although each day the struggle of the
steel strikers grows feeber there has been
sufficient interruption during the past six
weeks to affect prices extensively, par
ticularly on sales for immediate delivery.
In tin plates the advance has been great
est while hoops, sheet, skelp and billets
are sold at premiums. Quotations are too
erratic for accurate record and in many
cases sales are at private terms. Conf
dence is steadily shown by placing Of dis
tant deliveries at regular prices.
Cotton prospects have materially i'm
proved. and with average weather during
the next few weeks there is reason to
expect a yield equal to if not larger than
the one preceding.
Financially the South is in better
position than ever before. Planters have
mortgaged less of their crop than usual
and the banks will not draw on New York
as heavily as heretofore. Prospect of
reduction of wages at Fa! River threat
ems to precipitate a general strike, which
will Improve the situation by preventing
further accumulation of goods.

couraging statistics of foreign commerce
Exports of merchandise in July were

BRADSTREETs ON THE WEEK.
Higher Prices for short Crops Will
Equaiize Conditions.

NEW YORK. Aug. l6-Bradstreets re
view Of the state of trade tomorrow Will
say:
An Improvement alike in tone, and in
demand is noted in trade circles this week
and fall trade may be said to have opened
actively While the most optimistic re
ports come from the Northwest, several
large markets in the corn belt send more
cheerful reports, based partially upon a
still further Improvement in crop condi-
tons. but likewise the result of the
growth of d feeling that while the yields
of most crops will be smaller than last
year, the prices paid for the same will
be higher and the purchasing power of
the agricultural community, as a whole,
will be little impaired Advances In
wheat corn, oats, aud hog products sup
port this view. Weather and crop condi-
tions in the Northwest combine to give
that section specially generous yields ana
to stimulate jobbing, demand in nearly all
lines. ! -
Good crops in the Pacific Northwest
are also reported ana the outlook for fall
trade in that section is a cheerful one,
the only faw at present being the strike
confronting the shipping interests at San
Francisco. Fresh vegetables and fruits
and country produce are scarce ana nlsn
in price and canned goods also tend high
er. .i4t'
Southern trade advices are married by
damage inflicted blythe severe storm of
Wednesday and Thursday, which appears
to have hurt the Louisiana rice crop Sc
verely, but it is not thought to have hurt
sugar or cotton very much Timely rains
have improved cotton In the Mississippi
Valley, and advices from the South Allan
tic States are of "a heavy yield
Stock market prices improved this
materially
by the extension of the steel strike to
some Illinois plants. The industrial stu
alton, If not better as regards the steel
strike, is certainly no worse, although
there is talk of strike of print cloth
mill employees at Fall River, because of
a reduction in wages.
In other lines business is good Rail
way gross earnings for the first week OF
August show a gain of ia per cent over
last year, which points to the increase of
l33 per cent on roads for July being main
tanned in the current month.
Bank ciearings for the week aggregate
N.6i5, l29, 800. decrease of 10 per cent from
last week, gain of 80 per cent over this
week year ago and an increase of Sc
per cent over the corresponding week in

the week are per cent smaller than those
in this week year ago. Business failures
number us as against lS5 last week. l6s
