BRADSTREETS REPORT.

New York, September 29.-Brad-
streets tomorrow will say:
September, a period of almost un-
exampled activity in all lines of distrib-
utive trade and industry closes with
little abatement visible in demand and
with optimism as to the future wide
spread. FavOring the satisfactory
winding up of the months work have
e good weather conditions, allow
Ing the maturing of practically all food
crops without damage from frost. Adj
ditionally helpful to distributive trade
and collections have been the begin
ming of a free movement of spring
wheat, large sales of cotton at good
prices south, an unprecedented demand
at top prices for all kinds of building
material, marked freedom from in
dustrial friction, and a market for
Dor and its products active as rarely
before in the cOuntry's history. With
the advent of October some quieting
in the present demand might naturally
be looked for, and a few centers note
that trade is less active because many
buyers have returned home. Where,
however, as in the case of spring sales
of cottons and shades, a line on next
years business is obtained, good re-
ports are received. Iron and steel
buying for the last quarter of this year
and the first three months of 1906 is
very good.
Business failures for the week end
ing September %, number 1S5 against
179 in 1904.

real fact is disclosed that Japan made

STOCKS AGAIN WEAK.
Various Conditions Contribute to De

York Market

New York. April pa number of in-
'cidents combined to cause dscoura ge-
.ment on the part of the speculative
holders of stocks today, and their un-
loading caused the sharp break in
prices. The depression was much ag-
gravated by the uneasiness reported
from the foreign stock markets on ac-
count of the Moroccan question and
rumors of a sea fight in the China sea
Brokers for foreign houses sold freely
of all International stocks. A renewed
break in wheat was an additional factor
toward unsettlement.
The persistence of intermittent liqui-
dation and the lack of rebound in the
market undermined confidence progress
sively. and the market became rather
wild in the late dealings. BY the final
hour the level of prices was very gen
