TRADE HOLDS ITS W
Business Has Been Decidedly Stimuli
lated in the West.

New York, Aug. re-
ceived by the International Mercantile
agency shows tina there has been lit
tie change in business conditions dur
ing the week except in districts spe-
cially affected by reports of crop dam
age and disturbance incident to the
cut in steel prices. Business on the
whole shows uD well and in most re-
tail lines is fully holding its own. In
certain sections of the west trade has
been decidedly stimulated with i'm
proved distribution and generally
hopeful feeling.
Commercial centers are beginning
to feel the impetus of summer travel,
and buyers are flockfng to distributing
points, disposed to buy literally, al
though with marked discrimination.
This is a good sign and shows that re-
Punishment this year wiifbe conduct
ed along conservative lines. More sea-
sonable weather throughout the south
west has led to better results in many
lines. especially in dry goods and vari-
GUS branches of apparel. Boot and
shoe orders are in better volume and
jobberS in hats and caps are forcing
factories to work overtime to keep up
with current business. This improve
ment has extended to the clothing in
dustry, the outlook for which in some
sections was reported TO be rather
uncertain a week ago. Less stock
than usual is believed to have been
carried over in many lines owing to
the known conservatism of prominent
dealers. Their experience last winter
was suggestive of the greater care that
was displayed this year in avoiding
the ''overstocking evil" for spring and
summer goods.
An excellent demand is noted for
groceries,, especially staples, . where
prices are firm and distribution is for
the most part satisfactory. Encourag-
ing returns are shown in dry goods,
and in paints and oils. Leather has
been active at the south with better
advance in prices, owing to the scar
city OF properly cured hides. The wool
market has also strengthened some
what and tobacco in general is hold
The Kansas City and st. Louis dis
tricts report another week of active
business with steady Improvement in
many ines and GENERALLY expanding
trade. The latter section especially is
feeling the st~imulusst-of increased
trade from the Worlds fair visitors,
whose purchases are swelling the vol
ume of ordinary business to abnormal
proportions. While the final results
are, in a measure dependent upon the
crop development, tits noteworthy
that the districts which would suffer
the most from a disastrous shortage
have not been alarmed sbyr h excite
ment that has attended this weeks
trading in Wheatsoptions at New York,
Chicago and Minneapolis.
