TRADE BREAKING RECORDS.
Wholesalers Report Largest Volume Of
Business Ever Transacted.

Business Ever Transacted.
New York, Oct. 13.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review Of trade says:
Lower temperature brought out much
business in seasonable lines of wearing
apparel. and most reports from whole
salers tell of the largest volume of
trade ever transacted. Shipping depart
ments are limited in activity by made
quate railway facilities, and this diff
Guilty is becoming aggravated by the
free movement of grain and coal as thu
season advances. Official crop reports
covering conditions on Oct l indicated
most satisfactory grain prospects, but
damage has since reduced the yield Of
cotton and caused violent rise in
prices. To this fact is due some irreg.
ulariiy in trade and collections at few
southern cities, but most centers report
expanding business and confidence re
garding the future
In the leading industries it is impos-
sible to secure prompt deliveries, even
contracts for shipment during the first
quarter of 1907 being difficult to place
with the steel mills, and the long con
tinued lassitude in primary markets
for cotton goods has been succeeded
by an eagerness to purchase that is
advancing quotations.
Liabilities of commercial failures thus
far reported for October amounted to
$1,786, ,141, of which S753,65 was in
manufacturing, 1852, 1872 in trading and
