STIMULATES RETAIL TRADE.
Such is the Effect OF Cool Weather
Inability of Railroads to Handle
the Swelling Traffic.

tomorrow will say:
Cool weather, later than usual in
arriving this year has given a slim
illus to retail trade throughout wide
area and helped the already active
JObbing trade through the medium of
recorders. Much delayed business has
also materialized through the lifting
or abolition of quarantines through
out the central South. Further
strength has likewise developed in
iron and steel which though perhaps
quieter SO far as new business is con-
cerned. are more firmly held or show
further. advances. Premiums for
quick delivery are now almost univer-
sal and contracts far into 1906 are
announced for both crude and fin
ished products.
The only flaw in the situation at
present-one by the way. flowing from
intense activity in all lines of indus
try-is the growing inability of the
railroads to handle the freight traffic
Offering This complaint is well nigh
universal The lumber trade North
and South sends complaints of delayed
shipments and the eaStbound soft coal
trade is likewise affected. Railway
gross earnings in September were very
heavy, increasing six per cent over
the ssfne month in 1904.
