THE TRADE SITUATION.
Bradstreet's Review of the Week
Shows Improvement.

NEW YORK, June 22-Bradstreet's
says today:
The situation is one Of sustained
strength in some lines and Of further i'm
proyement in others. The crop situation,
OF course, remains the main subject Of
interest, and this, on the whole, is a good
one. although too much rain in the South
Atlantic States and too little in Texas,
with the lack Of warm weather for corn
in the Northwest have constituted ex-
ceptions to otherwise favorable advfces.
Stock speculation, though quiet, shows
few symptoms of weakness, despite the
fact that large dividend requirements
on July ! have tended to harden money
rates. Clearings are still Of very large
volume, proof Of the heavy volume Of gen
eraI trade. and railroad earnings continue
to surpass all records
Perhaps the most significant feature
noted for some time past is that presented
this week in regard to the prices of a
number Of leading commodities. Cotton
goods, notably print cloths, bIeached
goods, and d number of kindred products,
have advanced this week, and an increase
in the price Of the raw material is as
much due to the better trade advices at
home ana abroad as to crop damage re-
ports from the South.
advance, have at last succeeded in this
respect, and in addition, corn and oats
among the cereals, lard among the hog
products, cheese among dairy products,
and coffee and tea are all higher on the
week, the only important reduction being
in wheat, due mainly TO liquidation of the
July option as much as to continued good
crop advices- European advices favor the
idea tha-t the continent Of Europe win be
a hea' buyer the coming cereal year
Iron and steel lose nothing in strength
as the turn Of the year approaches. Re
ports Of activity in pig iron at the close
Of last week are confirmed, and Pittsburg
advices are of sales of fully $500 tons Of
Bessemer pig and Of considerable guam
titles of other iron. Foundry pig is re-
ported in better call at some markets.
No demand for finished material is quiet
as q whole There Is a better feeling in
Southern pig iron markets
Cotton goods agents report an active
enquiry for nearly all classes Of cotton
goods, but stock are small, and this limits

There was a time when our schools

continue to supply the nations with bread

share of the burden What has accom-
piished these wonders? In both cases the
railroad, that greatest factor in the civiIi-
cation of our times Supplement the road

arid portions of the earth-s surface will
