troversy between the car mens and the
street car rompany over the question
of wages and hours that resulted in

The company contends that the cost

tint that rents are higher, declares
this condition is but transitory.
1t states that a fiat rate of wages
is not advisable, that a graduated

now in operation on the United Rail-
roads is better, and that work day
of eight hours is not feasible
The company makes practically no
concessions or admissions in it's reply.
The statement contains about $4,000
words, covers SO typewritten pages and
goes into the history of the contro-'
versy between the United Railroads and
its employees and their agreements at

NEW YORK, Oct. Pr, G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review Of trade tomorrow
will say:
Low temperatures 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 departments are limited in ac-
tivity by inadequate railway facilities
and this difficulty is aggravated by free
movement of grain and coal as the sea-
son advances.
In the leading industries it is impossi-
BILE to secure prompt deliveries, even
contracts for shipment during the first
quarter in 1907 being difficult to place
with steel mills. and the lassitude In pri-
mary markets for cotton good has been
succeeded by eagerness to purchase:
Liabilities of commercial failures thus
