Bradstreet's Review.

New York. Aug. 31.--Bradstreets to- norrow will say:
 Better weather and definite assu~ ranees of large crops stimulate fall and winter buying which Is apparently at or close to its zenith. Most leading markets report buyers present in un- Drecedented numbers and the volume Of August sales exceeds all records for that month excert at few points unpropitious. Sales of dry goods. clothing. shoes, leather, hardware and other iron and steel products and ium- Der are very large. The fall shipping season is alse apparently at its height. shipping forces are working overtime and the railroads are working to their full capacity with car famine pre- dicted fer the not far distant future Winter wheat sagged slightly as the feeling grows that spring. like winter wheat will prove large crop. Re- ports from abroad are or better than earlier anticipated wheat crops, but it is to be noted that export trade in -four has improved and exports tend to ex- pend. The. crcp situation otherwise IS very. promising. The iron and steel markets are little quieter, due nain- ly to scarcity of supplies rather than to weakening of demand, which as evil denced by advances in epig iron. old material and some finished lines, Is atill very heavy.

PEACE DOVE

Central American Conference
on MarbIehead's Deck.
HONDURAS TO COME IN
Arrangements for Treaty Of Amity
Now Being Settled at
Oyster Bay.
HONDURAS TO CONE IN

OYSTER BAY. n. Y, July 17.-Peace
negotiations between Guatemala and
Salvador are being arranged 10y Pres-
dent Roosevelt and Acting Secretary
of State Bacon at Sycamore Hill
The one new feature In the situation
is the expressed desire Of Honduras
TO Ice a participant in the negotiations.
II is understood that this request will
be granted in way, but that the par
tlclpation of Honduras Will be rather
in the results reached than In shaping
the conclusions.
II is believed that the Marblehead
will take on the Salyadorean commits
sioners at Ia Libertad and then pro-
coed TO the nearest Guatemalan port,
san Jose. where the agents Of that
government Will board the ship, which
will then 20 out 10 sea.
This Is not the first time the deck of
a United States man-Of-war has been
the scene OF a peace conference. The
Marietta was thus employed six or
eight years ago in bringing about peace
between Costa Rica and Salvador, the
Philadelphia played similar part at
Panama during a revolution there
about ten years ago. and more recently
Commander Dillingham; brought the
Mont Crlsti insurgents and the Do
minican government agents together
off Mont Cristi and secured peace on
the deck Of the Detroit
late report says that Guatemala
is still fighting Salvador and Honduras
at four points on Guatemalan and Hon
duran territory.
Honduras will probably agree TO the
settlement arranged by the two states
primarily involved.
The negotiations, II Is stated, will
doubtless he held on board the Amerl-
can cruiser Marblehead, now in Guate-
malan waters The arbitrator on be-
half of the United States and Mexico
viii be the Mexican minister TO Cen
trail America and United States Min
lister Combs to Guatemala aud United
States Minister Merry TO Salvador.
The date and detail Of the proceedings
beyond this have not been arranged.
At the conclusion Of the conference
on Central American matters Assistant
Secretary Bacon accompanied by Mr..
Dunno left for his home in Long
Island. Secretary Taft, Police Com
missioner Bingham and Mr.. Whit
bridge left Oyster Bay later in the day.
Secretary TAFT said that as re-
suit of his visit to Sycamore Hill four
brigade army posts will be established
this year. Although ii is decided that
seven such posts should be established,
the appropriation this year is not sut-
hcient for the other three.
The four decided on are at Fort
Riley. Fort Leavenworth, Kan, Fort
d. A. Russell. Wyo.. and Fort Sam
Houston, Tex. Between 100000 and
100000 will be expended at each post
this year out of the current apprOpria
ton.
Secretary Taft said he will go at
once to Murray Bay, Canada, for his
vacation.
