there was little trading in print cloths,
even at 2 cents.
'Woolen goods have been taken more
freely, especially the better qualities,
and clothing manufacturers are prepar-
ing for a large fall trade. Raw wool is
in better request at eastern markets,
but the new clip is at a premium that
limits trade.
Agricultural prospects are far above
the average and rapid progress is made
with winter wheat harvesting Delays
have been encountered from heavy rain,
while injury has occurred in the south
west from drouth, but these adverse in
fuences are less extensive than usual.
Wide differences between cash prices
and next crop options indicate the
views Of traders. The week brought
little alteration in the spot quotations,
light supplies holding all cereals fairly
steady. Injury in Texas has partially
offset the splendid outlook in other cot
ton states, while the strong statistical
position together with liberal cOnsump
ton and covering Of short contracts at
Liverpool combined to cause a sharp
rise in option prices and a moderate
stiffening of SPOT cotton, but the ad-
vance was not maintained
Failures for the week numbered 200
in the United States, against PA last
year, and 20 in Canada, against % a
year ago"
Bradstreet's says:
THE current week closes a six
urne of business dOne-excepting spec
ulatiOn-and general prospects at the
close has had few equals and no su-
periors. Thus ends quite satisfactorily
fiscal year, which owing to smaller
crop yields gave little promise at its
opening No ground appears to have
been lost. but, on the contrary dis
tinct gains over the best of previous
years have been noted in many lines.
Profits may have been smaller but the
volume of trade turned over has about
made up for this. Export trade in
agricultural products is one of the few
lines to suffer in comparison with previ-
Gus years Reasonably cool weather is
a drawback to immediate retail distrib-
ution and arrests the progress of the
corn crop east and west. Confidence in
the outlook however, IS evidenced by
the continued heavy buying for fan de-
livery noted in the great grain growing
sections Of the west This is also re-
Heeted by continued large increase in
railway earnings over the best results
or previous years, except where. as in
the case Of the coal roads, distribution
IS paralyzed by the wholesale shut down
Of production and consumption Aside
from this single exception, however. the
general industrial situation has rather
improved"
