New YORK. weekly review of trade.
- covering the country as a
whole. says: Trade expands steadily
as confidence increases with the har-
vesting of the crops, and mercantile
collections are less tardily met. Low
err temperature stimulates the demand
for fall and winter wearing apparel
and there is more disposition to pre-
pare for the future rather than to CON
fine operations within the limit of i'm
mediate requirements. This improve
ment is extending to all departments
of manufacture. and in the aggregat e
there is less idle machinery than at
any recent date. Settlements Of labor

ment of this fav bic condition. Fail

He notified Washington OF "Re-

out OF his chosen position and say,
that his Republican Legislature
