ping those suits will clear the slate of
everything except the actions involv-
ed In the present hearing.

TRADE QU|ETER
 DURING THE WEEK Favorable Elements Are 0b- served In Business Centers CHEERFUL TONE PREVAILS One of the Hopeful Signs Is the Re- newaI of Grain Purchases In the
 Northwest and Freer Circu-
 Iation of Checks.
CHEERFUL TONE PREVAILS
15.-Bradstreets

New York, November 15--Bradstreets tomorrow will say:
 Trade on the whole is quieter and op- erations are being curtailed in accord with the readjustment process forced by the prevailing monetary stringency and the spread of the acute currency scar city to the country at large Evidences of this is found in the restriction of wholesale buying for future delivery, in the confinement of jobbng trade to pure ly filling in proportions, and in the cur tailment of retail buying by the neces- sary employment of credit instruments.
 In manufacturing lines there is appar- ently determination to fill orders only as they are received, and an indisposition to accumulate stocks, the result being a slowing down of operations pending the settlement of affairs upon substantial basis. This quieting is also in no small degree due to the fact that the manu- lecturers, unable or unwilling to ask their employees to take credit instruments, chose rather to reduce production to a point where operations can be conducted free from dispute as to the methods of payment employed.
 There are, however, some favorable ele- ments which point to the rehabilitation process being well under way. There is in the first place an absence of anything like precipitate action in the business community. The first furry of financial unsettlement has appeared without much of the disorganization witnessed in other years, and there has succeeded 8 steady determination to make the best of a sit uation which by many is regarded as but temporary and not of a lasting depress- ing kind.
 The situation in the larger financial markets is unquestionably more cheerful, gold arrivals from abroad continue very large and the security markets display considerable steadiness despite evident secondary liquidation inseparable from times like these. Urgent demands from the interior early caused an advance of money premiums, but later this demand weakened as the needs of the country were met by large shipments from New York and the centers, the arrival Of great quantities of foreign gold the increase of volume of national bank circulation and the growing familiarity of the people of the interior with the new credit instru- nents.
 One. and principally hopeful. sign has been the renewal of grain purchases in the northwest, exchange checks on larger interior markets being the medium of transfer, thus allowing of the resumption of grain forwarding and the buying of supplies at retail by the farmer.
 Failures are the largest in number Of any week this year. in the United States, 259 against 226 last week and 22 in the like week of 1906. In Canada the failures numbered 40, as against 34 last week and 31 in this week a year ago.

Dun & Co.'s Review.

New York. November 15-R G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
 Liberal receipts of gold from abroad and large increase in bank note circula- ton tend to relieve the financial stress at New York, but the interior is now feel ing the scarcity of currency and commer- cial activity is retarded to some extent. Dispatches from leading cities indicate that in some preparations are being made for future business and irregularity in circulations with most favorable news from agricultural sections in which the crops are being marketed as freely as the supply of money will permit.
 Return to normal conditions will be hastened by large exports or farm staples supplying credits abroad, upon which the much needed gold may be imported Off cial returns indicate that exports of this nature were valued at about $l00 1000. 900 in October, and the outgo of grain and cot ton is on a still larger scale this month. It is particularly fortunate that there was not the customary borrowing abroad this summer in anticipation of agricul- tural exports, so that payment is now due for these shipments, whereas usually the remittances are needed to meet ma turing bills in the exchange market.
 Financial pressure has effected the iron industry. curtailing new contracts for all forms of finished steel. Few new orders have been received by the mills and some deliveries on old contracts are deferred, because funds are not available to meet specifications Primary markets for cot ton goods are quiet. although the mills are all well occupied filling order con tracts Reports of the closing of wooden mills should not be given undue signid- canoe, more or less idle machinery being customary at this time of the year.
 Footwear factories note slackening in demand and output is being curtailed to prevent overproduction. Thus far the per- centage of reduction is not heavy.
 Tanners report quiet leather market, some concerns receiving more counter mands than new business, but the statis- tical position is strong. because produc- ton has been curtaied for some time.
