BUSINESS ACTIVITY
Stimulated by Settlement Of
the Coal Strike.
Last Unfayorable Feature in General
Trade and Industry Removed.
Almost Every Branch Expects an Un-
usually Good Business.

New York, Oct. 17.-Bradstreets, to-
morrow, will say: With the settle
ment of the great coal strike practi-
cally the only unfavorable feature if
general trade and industry disappears.
Coincident with this, also. have been
the ending of several minor troubles
of a similar nature. Retail trade has
generally improved, stimulated at the
West, Northwest and South by cooler
weather, fall festivities and carnivals.
Eastern retail business also is expect
ed to improve. Jobbing demand is
better, particularly at the West, where
recorder business is noted in larger
than usual volume, quick deliveries
being especially asked for. Country
collections have been good.
Cotton goods are strong ct the East
and large sales of print cloth have been
made at 8 cents, and further business
would probably have to be at an adj
vance on this quotation. Leather is
active at Boston but hides are easier
and tanners are expected TO stock up.
Heavy weight leather is especially
strong and scarce. Eastern shipments
of shoes are of good volume. but still
10 per cent. behind those of a year
ago for the season.
Names sardine crop will be smaller,
as will also the output of canned
corn.
The strength OF the cereals is a
feature deserving special mention.
Wheat has made a notable advance.
partly because of the exceptionally
good cash demand on milling account.
Much of the corn crop will apparently
grade low, but no doubt exists that
corn and oats yields this year will be
the largest ever gathered. Seasonable
strength is noted in butter and cheese
and the metals are also higher. In the
general strength of farm products the
weakness in cotton is noted.
Wheat, including flour. exports for
the week ending Oct. 1G. aggregate
5,24O,6SS bushels, against 5.645.iI9, last
week, and 5,536,013 in this week. last
year. Corn exports aggregate lSO,6'4
bushels, against 1S0,35S last week. and
640,O33 last year. For the fiscal year
exports are 1,63S,266 bushels, against
1884. S43 last season.
