BUSINESS IMPROVING
Mercantile Authority Pronounces
Conditions HeaIthfuI With
Little Disturbance.

New York, July 1O--R. c. Dun &

Will say:
Business responds to improved condi-
tons. Distributions of merchandise are
accelerated by more seasOnabIe wealth
er and fewer labor controversies. while
Wholesale and jobbing trade, especially
at the interior. shows the encouraging
effect of brighter agricultural prospects.
There Is the customary excessive de-
mand for farm hands. Receipts of
holiday traffic and trade in holiday
goods Indicate no dimunition in pur-
chasing power. and semi-annual inven-
tories show a more gratifying situation
than expected. There is less than the
usual midsummer idleness in manu-
featuring, except in the cotton industry.
Commodity prices advanced slightly
during June, Dun's Index Number on
July l being 500, 456 compared with S9S,-
1886 a month earlier. A decline of "a
per cent is recorded in comparison with
July, 1902. chiefly in articles of food.
Railway earnings for June are 131 per
cent larger than last year and 25.3 in
excess of 1901.
