Oun's Review.
Publishers, Press


New York, Nov 23-In its weekly
review of trade Dun's tomorrow will
say:
Weather conditions have retarded
trade in seasonable staple lines or
merchandise, holiday goods have
begun to move unusually early, and
in a volume that promises satisfac-
tory results. Wholesale business is
maintaining a much better movement
than last year, and further improve
ment is noted in collections. From
the leading manufacturing plants
come reports of full employment OF
machinery, yet deliveries are much
less prompt than desired and made
quate railway facilities receive a
large share of blame. Nevertheless,
railway earnings thus far reported
for November exceed last years by
95 per cent Commodity markets
rule fairly steady, without event oil
special significance. Each week
brings numerous reports of increases
in wages, and more controversies are
pending that must be settled within
a short time unless work is to be in
terrupted. All monthly records of
foreign commerce We're far eclipsed
in October, the gain in exports being
phenomenal.
