Against this seemingly unfavorable
feature, however, is to be noted the
fact that good business has been done
IN all kinds OF seasonable products at

sale has been largely postponement,
rather than actual elimination of posi-
BILE business. The crop situation has on
the whole improved, and corn and cot
ton, the two leading crops most in ques-
tion at present, have gained some of
the ground lost early in the season by
cold weather. The wheat crop is GER
tainly In a favorable condition, because
harvesting has gone forward rapidly.
and prices on the whole have been quite
satisfactory.
Corn shows the heaviest advance for

The boot and shoe trade is in good

June failures were the smallest of
any this year. but liabilities were
swelled by a few heavy suspensions of
banks, and were the heaviest for more
than year past. Considering the In
creased volume of business in the past
two years the six months record is a
favorable one. as the total number of
failures for the year was 4,465, with
liabilities of sec, 1862 and assets of a
