more and more secure, but the imme-
date present does not in all instances
present so satisfactory an appearance.
Warmer weather has continued to help
retail distribution. but has not in all
cases made up for the disadvantages
caused by the heretofore backward sea
sons. With few exceptions summer re-
sort business has not equaled expecta-
lions. Railway earnings are really fiat
tering, June returns on nearly 1000, 900
miles of road showing an aggregate
gain of per cent on this year. In the
matter of actual business improvement
is noted the demand for finished pro-
ducts of iron and steel; and lumber
seems to be recovering from the tenn
porary depression noted at the begin
ming of July.
Iron and steel trade conditions are
surprisingly good, but no more so than
the manufacturers themselves, who at
the middle of July find the output for
the last half year practically booked.
