GOOD TRADE com,Nc J
eradstreet's Predicts Better Business
in the Future.


New York. Sept 5.-Bradstreets to-
morrow. will say:
All available data confirm reports Of
past good trade and foreshadow as
good or better yet to come. 1t has been
essentially a week of buying and dis
tributive trade. Prices show persist
ent strength despite the fact that agri-
cultural products except corn and
prime cattle tend lower, owing to the
growing strength of raw textiles and
other materials for Manufacture Rail
road gross earnings for the month just
closed show gains of per cent over
1901 and reports as to fall trade point
to, very full volume of west bound
freight balancing the movement of
large crops to market. Corn is not yet
out of danger from frost the north
ern half of the belt and this coupled
with short supplies imparts strength to
cereals generally The anthracite,
trouble still hangs over the situation,
but the volume Of coal shipments IS
slowly and steadily increasing.
Silk goods are strong and prices very
firm. Eastern shoe factories are well
employed, although the complaint of
small profits continues. Manufacturers
are only buying leather from hand TO
mouth. but that product shows great
strength in sympathy with hides. Fine
grades of shoes are in active demand
for next spring. Shipments are increas-
ing but are not yet as large as year
ago Wool is half a cent higher and
tends up. as stocks are not large.
Business failures for the week end
ing Sept 4, number 1873, as against 80
last week, 1863 in this week last year,
154 in 1900, 1913 in 1899 and 142 in 1898.
Bank clearings for the week Give
days. ending Sept. 4, are 81 ,S64, 263, 120.
though 4 loss of per cent. from last
week. is an increase of 20 per cent over
the week last year.
In Canada the wholesale trade at the
leading centers shows renewed activ
ity. Buyers attracted by lower rates
to the two great points of distribution.
Montreal and Toronto, left good-sized
and well-distributed orders for fall
goods. Business failures for the week
number IA, as compared with 20 last
week and II in the same week last year.
Weekly bank clearings aggregate $42,-
935. 463 1913 per cent. less than last
week but 23.6 per cent. over last year.
