MARKED IMPROVEMENT IN COTTON

Reduction in stock of Print Cloth 5

Quantities of Brown Goods Arc

New York, June 21-D. G. Dun & Co. IS
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
say:
Increasing distribution of merchandise,
particularly in the territory beyond the
Ohio river, including the Far Northwest.
is a feature of the general business situa-
tion, and tells of widespread prosperity
and confidence. The railroads are carry
ing more goods that may be classed as
luxuries than ever before, and in spite
of Wall streets slightly higher money
market there is no fear on this score in
any line of legitimate trade. Crop news
continues good, there is less trouble from
disagreements with labor and the Ion g
laggard cotton goods market has recov-
cred slightly with the reduction of unsold
stocks of print cloths.
Interruption through labor controver-
sizes at machine shops makes the iron and
steel industry more fully employed than
in recent weeks, and for another week
there is assurance of vigorous activity
at mills and furnaces
In many instances promised deliveries
cannot be made before July 1, and urgent
business that is now offered cannot be
undertaken. 1t is now reaEzed that
much foreign business is askable, but
manufacturers refuse to make bids.
Warm weather Helps Cotton Mills.
Excessive stocks of print cloths at Fall
River have been reduced to a surprising
extent since the combination of attrac-
tive prices, and warmer weather infused
a little animation into the market. Sales
are heaviest of wide goods but standard
sizes are also sharing in the enlarged
business. The rapid strides of exports in
China in the brown goods division were
not without influence, and taken as a
whole the cotton goods industry has a
more encouraging aspect than at any
time for many months. An undertone
of strength was seen in the raw cotton
market on account of greater activity at
the mills, and good foreign buying also
helped to neutralize the effect of better
crop news.
A year ago the trade was beginning to
realize the extent of the injury by
drought in spring wheat states and in a
few days about eight cents was added to
the price. This year a decline of similar
proportions has occurred, unaided by any
startling disclosures. AS the season adj
vances crop conditions steadily improve,
and in some states the winter wheat is
being harvested. No severe drop in quo
tations is anticipated, however, for the
crop is by no means beyond danger in the
Northwest, and even a yield equal to the
largest estimate may be required If the
most gloomy foreign fears are realized.
Failures for the week numbered 1893 in
the United States, against 179 last year,
and IA in Canada against % last year.

NORTH SIDE OF RESERVOIR
Was Cleaned Yesterday-A Big Force
at Work Many Fish Found.

Was Cleaned Sesterday-A Big Force
Mt Work Many Fish Found.
At half-past four o'clock yesterday
morning the water board placed a
force of about one hundred and fifty
men at work cleaning the upper half
of the reservoir, and at seven o'clock
last evening the work had been com
pleted. The city was at no time during
the day without water. but in some
sections the pressure was very light.
The mud in the basin was very thick,
and bystander, who claimed to be ac-
quainted with the facts, stated that
a portion of the basin had never been
cleaned before. All agreed, however,
that the basin was in an awful condi-
ton. After the mud bad been scraped
into the escape the floor and walls
were washed down. At seven o'clock
the water was again turned on. The
south side will be cleaned next, but
no time has been fixed.
Yesterday many fish were found,
they being of the carp. jack and bass
varieties. Few of the latter were
found. Some of the fish were taken
away. but the majority were thrown
into the other side of the basin.
