Give Them Moment of Relaxation

Probably the busiest set of men in st.
Louis is that aggregation of statesmen who
through the last week have been selling
goods to incoming merchants. The buyers
will be weary enough. for they have been
hoisted up and down elevators. walking
miles Of floor space, examining samples and
models and price lists from morning till
night, so that Sunday will be welcome to
all.
The close Of the week naturally shows
somewhat of reduction in the number Of
arrivals. But the new week promises a
fresh line Of purchasers from Kentucky.

WEATHER AND CROPS NOW
CHIEF FACTORS IN TRADE,
Business Is Well Maintained, Says
Dun's Review, Aside From
Quieting Influence of Va
cations.

New York, Aug. n.-R. g. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review OF Trade tomorrow will
say:
business Is well maintained. aside from the
Guietins influences Of the vacation season. which
somewhat restricts trade and retards collections.
Making due allowance for the period. there is
no cause for complaint. The adverse factors that
have been operating against prosperity in recent
preceding weeks are no longer a. potent. normal
influences gradually prevailing
Labor controversies still exist ourtailink the
output Of few products and the consumption Of
all the necessaries Of life.
Crops are not going to market a. freely a.
usual although the agricultural outlook In djS-
tinctly favorable.
In spite Of several obvious reasons for expect
Ing check to freight traffic. earnings Of rail-
ways thus far reported in August show an av-
erage gain OF e.6 per cent over last year. and
1872 per cent over 1901. Complaint 10 beginning
to be heard regarding the inadequate facilities Of
the railways and It now appears that inconven-
fences and loss must be again experienced. not
withstandins the extensive improvements.
Sensational stories Of the large number Of buy
at this center and the faboulous sums
that they spend cannot be accepted as statist-
ically accurate. but 1t is probable that in
crease over all previous years il actually occur
ring. despite the Generalization in cotton goods
caused by speculation in the raw material.
Although production Of coke At Connellsvillo
has been moderately curtailed. supplies accumu-
late and prices are depressed. fairly liberal
tonnage Of iron has been placed during the past
week, providing abundant demand for all the
pig that is being made. Moro large contracts
for iron and steel have been placed by a prom
inent manufacturer Of agricultural machinery.
and much Of this business has been held back
entirely on account OF prices. It Is believed that
no furthern concessions are to be expected.
In view of the very satisfactory 5obbinE trade
that is reported in dry goods, it Is surprising that
no reflection Of the activity IL seen IN the
primary market Makers Of cotton goods find no
business Offering except such small orders for
immediate requirements as emanate from urgent
dealers
Moderate orders for light weight woolens and
worsteds have been placed for spring delivery.
Heavy shipments Of shoes from Boston make
striking comparisons with preceding years, and
the volume Of new business promises to maintain
heavy movement. but 1t 10 noteworthy that
there is q tendency to operate moderately and
frequently this year. rather than to buy seldom
and largely as in other seasons.
Somewhat easier prices for the great food
staples testify to brighter crop prospects,.
Failures this week numbered 23S in the United
States. against 207 last year, and 8 in Canada,
compared with 80 year ago.

VOGUE OF SHORT SKIRTS.

Fall and Winter Models Will Re Sim.
liar to Those Now Worn.
Short skirts are becoming so popular for
summer gowns. and tailors and dress
makers have apparently attained to such
a degree Of proficiency in the construction
thereof. that 1t is believed the fashion will
continue through the autumn and winter.
In linen and pique and the various differ
ent wash materials the short skirt is SO
eminently practical that the won6nr. is
that long skirts ever were allowed, while
in silk and light wool tailormade costumes
the newest design with the perfect fitting
yoke, there are SO many attractive gowns
which are becoming and smart that they
will surely be copied for winter wear.
A favorite model made in silk canvas
or linen has a deep fitted yoke with seam
in front and long pointed line. and below
the yoke the skirt is in narrow tucks or
pleats. The waist, in shirt-waist style, has
tucks or pleats Of the same size and
narrow yoke over the shoulders made to
give the same line as the one on the skirt
and with a seam in front: the seam hiaden
ing. In taffeta this is a capital model. but
1t looks well also in the wash materials
of rather heavy weight, like canvas or
linen.
