COMMERCIAL REPORT.


New York, Sept. 6.-Bradstreet's
commercial report says: All avail
able data confirm reports Of past
good trade and foreshadows good
or better yet to come. 1t has been
essentially week Of active buying
in distributive trade. Reports as to
August trade have been almost uni
formly favorable, and the records Of
failures show business mortality to
have been confined to low summer
minimum. Prices show persistent
strength despite the fact that agri-
cultural products, except corn and
prime cattle, tend lower. Corn is not
yet out Of danger from frost in the
northern part Of the belt and this,
coupled with short supplies, imparts
strength to cereals generally. Re-
ports Of cotton deterioration, caused
by hot, dry weather, have scared
shorts and stiffened values Of raw
and manufactured cotton, but there
is feeling that the crop damage
talk has been overdone.

TIE MINING CONGRESS.


Butte, Mont, Sept. 6.-Judge ]. H.
Richards, of Boise, Ida, was elected
president of the International Min
ing congress. Irwin Z. Mahon was
reelected secretary. Deadwood and
Lead, S. d., were selected for the next
meeting places of the mining con-
gress in 1908. Much excitement was
injected into the session. An effort
has been made by numerous fac
ton of the congress to reorganize
it into a new body, having for its
objects different lines Of effort than
those along which the old congress
has been working since its incep-
ton. Among these new lines were
the changing Of its name and scope
from an international to an Ameri~
can basis and the injection OF a more
commercial and less congressional
feature into the association.
The special committee on organ
ization spent part of Thursday night
in an effort to mollify and harmonic
all factions and yesterday morning
filed unanimous report, which
Prof. Holmes, in presenting, ex-
Aajned in detail.
Mrs. Ella Knowles Haskell, of Mon
tana, led the fight against the pro-
posed reorganization plan. While ap-
parently slightly in the minority, her
skill as a parlamentarian and de-
batter served to block all efforts at
consideration of the committees re-
port and was productive of much bit
terness upon both sides. 1t is free
ly stated that new organization
may result, whatever the action OF
the congress on the report may be.
