COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

R. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
of Trade" says:
Distribution of Autumn merchandise
Is IN progress unusually early this year.

so heavy that the last half of 1905 prom
iSeS to establish a remarkable record
of commercial activity.
Current retail trade is well maintain
ed, the urgency of orders received by
Iobbers indicating that dealers stocks
are becoming depleted, and there is lit
tie complaint regarding collections.
More labor disputes have reached
settlement, and no serious con,rover-
sizes are threatened, while in many sec
tons the supply of wage carriers is in
adequate. Freight blockades and INSULT
cient rolling stock cause DELAY. despite
widely extended facilities as compared
with last year, and this trouble will
probably increase as the crop-moving
season advances.
special reports regarding manufac-
turing conditions have been received
from about forty leading industrial cen
tiers, and there is surprising unanimity
IN the statements. With scarcely an
exception plants are working close to
full capacity, with little idle machinery.
except where attractions or improvements
are IN progress, and contracts on hand
far exceed those held at this date in
1904.
Equally gratifying is the confidence
expressed iii the future, prominent
feature OF most reports. Encouraging
crop prospects provide a large share OF
the good feeling.
