DUN'S REVIEW,

New York. September 29.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
 Lower temperatures stimulate retail trade and fall openings are largely att tended but the weather is not cold enough to menace late crops that are maturing most satisfactorily Certainty of a sue cessful season on the farm contributes more than any other single factor to the confidence that is felt in all sections of the country. Comparatively little new grain has been marketed thus far, which is largely due to the planting of winter wheat and other preparations for next year that are unusually extensive. Man ufacturlng activity Is fully maintained the leading industries having contracts assuring little idle machinery during the balance of the year. and it Is probable that more business will be carried over into 1906 than at the opening of the pre- vious year. The growing disposition to place orders for distant delivery testines to the well nigh universal faith that no setback will be experienced. Railway traffic reports suggest that more rolling stock and motive power could be used than is obtainable. as is customary at this season, ~ld gross earnings thus far re- ported for September surpass last years by II per cent, which in turn were 6.5
 per cent greater than those of 1903 For egn commerce at this port for the last week showed gains of s3165,372 in value of merchandise exported. and 2,95S 1892 in imports as compared with the same week last year. Money Is a little firmer but there Is no stringency and go.~ imports were checked by higher rates of foreign exchange. Mercantile collections improve as the season advances. September has made remarkable record In the iron and steel industry. In favored departments, notably structural and railway supplies, business was beyond the capacity of tho mills
 Quiet conditions are customary at this season of the year in the primary mar kets for textile fabrics, but the lul is much less marked than usual Mills and factories have orders on hand assuring activity for some time to come, and there is no anxiety regarding the future Heavy receipts of cattle at Chicago and other western markets do not weaken the tone of hides New England and manu- facturers of footwear are still somewhat conservative regarding the acceptance of additional spring orders. anticipating a still firmer leather market
 Failures this week ,uniher 240 In the United States against ---ss fast year, and twenty-one In Canada, compared with eighteen year ago.

TRUSSVILLE SAFES
 BLOWN BY ROBBERS
About Five Hundred Dollars In Cash Is Secured From Glenn
 Bros.

Trussville, September @.-(Special.)- Last Monday MT. Sohm, section foreman, missed a claw bar and hammer from his tool house. and no trace of the tools could be found until this morning, when it was discovered that Glenn Bros. and Newman & Terry's stores had been broken open with the tools missed by MT. Sohm on Monday.
 The burglars blew Glenn Bros safe, securing something over $500 cash and some merchandise The burglars entered Glenn Bros establishment from the front door and went out at the back door.
 It seems they went in at the rear of Newman & Terry's and made an effort to blow their safe, but it proved bad shot. only blowing off the combination and not hurting the safe Or contents.
 Newman & Terrym issed only a few articles, such shoes and hats. It seems money was the object of the gang.
 Newman x Terry had about $500 in cash in their safe that they failed to get The shot was heard by number of our citizens, but no attention was given to it because such are heard frequently around the furnace. Glenn Bros and

IRON AND STEEL ARE FIRM

New York September 2e.-Bradstreets s tomorrow will say:
 September, a period of almost unexam- pied activity in all lines of distrlouuVe trade, and industry, closed with little abatement visible in demand, and with optimism as to the future widespread Favoring the satisfactory winding up of the months work, have been good Weath- CT conditions allowing the maturing or practically all food crops without dam age from frost. Additionally helpful to distributive trade and collections have been the beginning of free movement of spring wheat, large sales of cotton at good prices south and an unprecedented demand at top prices for all kinds of building material. It Is true that retail trade in some sections has been retarded by warm weather, but this is regarded as only temporary. Crop moving necessities have produced a growing feeling that the past two years of easy money are about to give way to firrner conditions.
 With the advent of October, some quiet ing in the present demand might naturally be looked for, and few centers note lndl lIduinB IS lSSS dCllfS bOSdHSS iiio'hS buyers have returned home. Where, however, as in the case of spring sales of cotton and shoes line on next years business is obtained, good reports are received. Iron and steel buying for the last quarter of this year and the first three months of 1906, Is very good, Sep tember's bookings in most markets In fact topninR the list of monthly sales It might also be noted that winter wheat seeding is active, a very large acreage being planted, and soil and plants seem to insure a better start than year ago.
 Transportation facilities are already taxed by movement of crops and heavy general traffic.

 In speaking of the matter last night, Manager Vaughan said:
 T am going to make fight to secure that game. If the Birmingham associa- tion cannot secure this protested game. then we will make a move not to have any more protests in the Southern league. If they are not given proper considera- ton, then what is the use in having a provision for protested games.
 We ought to win our fight for the game lost in Nashville, and If we do 1t will put us in the first division ahead of Shreveport

Newman & Terry, as a rule. keep some one in each building at night but it happened that both men were out last night, MT. Terry being out with sick friend and MT. Stephens at home on ac- count of sickness in his family. Both men heard the shot, as did MT. Tom Glenn, proprietor of Glenn Bros. establishment here and at Argo and Branchville.
 The robbers left no clew whatever, and made good their escape. The robbery was evidently done by some one well ac- luainted with the conditions who had been watching both stores.

The soil is exceedingly productive, and fruit, grain and vegetables grow in great abundance. These find a ready market in the lumber camps, the larger cities and the Alaska trade.
