DUR'S WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW
Railroad Equipment Inadequate for
Distribution of Merchandise-Con
servatlsm Shown in Iron and Steel
Purchases.

New York, Aug. S.-R g. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
Trade advices from nearly every
section continue to show as favorable
conditions as year ago, and in many
lines the volume of transactions has
increased. Jobbers report fall bust
ness opening with excellent prospects
and manufacturing plants are viii oc-
cupied, with the exception of cotton
mills.
Distribution of merchandise is so
heavy that railway equipment already
proves inadequate, although crops are
not the factor that they will be in a
few weeks. Earnings for July exceed
last years by 1927 per cent and those
of 1901 by 2o.2 per cent.
On the whole news from the farms
is less favorable, but no serious cur
tailment is assured and many sections
make very bright reports A decline
of LIS per cent in the cost of commodi-
ties during July is evidence that prices
are less inflated, since the change was
mainly in meats and other food which

Consumption Of iron and steel is on
q large scale, and in many depart
ments the past week has witnessed
the signing of numerous contracts, but
there is a tendency to delay purchases
beyond early needs. This conseryas-
ism is not surprising in view of the
uncertainty regarding the security and
financial markets, together with con-
siderable interruption to structural
work through labor controversies. The
rate of consumption and the moderate
size of orders, however, indicate that
stocks are running low, which encour-
ages furnacemen and mill operators
to hold quotations fairly steady A
moderate tonnage of pig iron has been
ordered, and in partly finished prod
ucts the best feature just now is the
bidding Of agricultural implement max
ers. More pig iron was imported dur
ing July than anticipated and German
billets are still offered at Pittsburg,
but the domestic makers announce
their intention of meeting foreign COM
petition. There is less pressure for
tin plate, the peculiar weather extend
ing the canning season and giving
more time for delivery of cans. There
is full occupation in all branches Of
this industry, and in merchant pipe
also the mills have full order books
for many months.
There were 17s commercial failures
this week in the United States, against
1870 last week, 191 the preceding week
and 1876 the corresponding week last
year, and in Canada 10, against 10 last
week, 10 the preceding week and IA

YALE DOWNS HARVARD.

Races.
New London, Conn, June 27.-For
the first time on record Yale trt-
,smphed over Harvard in all three of
their boat races in the annual regat-
ia Oh the Thames Yale won the
eight.oared varsity race by three and
one-half lengths. In all three races
Harvard put up memorable fight and
went down to defat after gallant
struggles in which her boys rowed out
the last ounce Of their strength.
Yale's three victories are attributed
by the experts to the superiority of
the stroke taught Yale by John Ken
nedy over that taught Harvard by
her graduate coaches So far as phys
ical form was concerned there was TO
choice between the crews. except with
the possible exception that the Yale
freshmen outweighcd their Harvard
rivals by over seven pounds to the
NAV. The varsity race was a sur
prise. Tho freshman race was con-
coded to Yale. while the four-oared
race was also given to Yale in the
great majority of the predictions.

'iaat is 10 construct miniature of one

6riquetting Plant Probab,e.
Another thing of interest we are
promised is briquetting plant. The
officials of the exposition have prom
lsed us a briquetting plant if we will
furnish the coal. We have arranged
for that. 1t would be a valuable ad.

we can maintain briquetting plant
with North Dakota Ignite. The fair
officials are in correspondence with
German parties regarding the erection
OF the briouetting plant.
No State BuiI1ino-
We shall not have state building.
A few persons favor a state building.
but it should be remembered that a
state building cannot be used for ex-
hiblts. 1t is merely headquarters
for visitors, and is a mile or more
from the exhibits. 1t could not be
erected for less than $4,000, and at
the close of the fair would be total
loss. We believe, and believe the
people OF the state when they under
stand the matter, will agree that a
state building would be an expense
not justified by any benefits to be OBJ
tanned. In our booth in the agricul-
tural building we shall have recep-
ton room, lavatory and other COM
forts for visitors from the state, which
will answer largely the same purpose
Magnitude of the Fair.
The st. Louis exposition will be per-
haps the greatest the world has ever
seen. In magnitude it excels the
worlds fair at Chicago, although the
character of the exhibits cannot be
told until they are installed. The peo-
pie from the North will! probably do
their visiting during the months of
May, the carly part of June, Septem-
Der and October. Few people from
the North will venture there during
the hot weather of July and August.
l believe Farmer Wallaces idea of a
steamboat excursion from st. Paul
down the Mississippi river would be a
good advertisement for the state. 1t
could be timed to arrive there about
Dakota day, if such day is named,
and would be comfortable means Of
making the trip as we'll as novel ad-

court.
Robert Gram was arrested at Fargo

in his right throat and wanted Joe
Micher arrested. He was fixed up and
seemed to be so glad he was alive
that he afterwards decided not 10
prosecute.
The final dividend has been declared
IN the case of the Citizens National
bank of Fargo. 1t was for 6 l-5 per
cent, making total of II Is. Soon
after the failure of the bank some To-
cal capitalists looked over the assets
and offered the controller 100 cents on

and now the creditors are sore.
Some of the plumbers of Fargo are
out and now the strike may extend.
A member of the union employed ny
local firm was fined for working on

and the other union employees demand

This was refused and they went out.
The firm insists that the union men
adjust their own affairs to suit them
selves and refuses to mix in the affair.
There is a big rush of work there IN
all the firms. and If the. members OF
the union in all the shops go out IT
may tie up some of the new buildi'n"s'
