Encouraging Reports of the
Steady Revival of Business.

1t is generally believed that depleted
stocks in conjunction with broadening de-
mand will absorb those two large Offer
ings without difficulty.
Footwear manufacturers In New Eng
land report that jobDers continue to pur-
chase conservatively, placing only enough
contracts to cover immediate needs This
demand for prompt delivery has assured
the larger producers of full work for an
other month, but there is little disposition
in any division of the industry to operate
beyond the business actually In sight. Be
lief that the material market Is inflated
explains this attitude. In many cases
manufacturers insist on advances COM
:nensurate with the rise In leather, but
few iobbers or wholesalers will pay the
higher terms. Leather is quiet, most va
rieties being in less demand than fort
night ago. and slight concessions are OBJ
tanned on light weight sole, but heavy
stock rules firm because supplies are
small and there is no pressure to sell.
Commercial failures this week in the
United States as reported by r. G. Dun
& Co. are 262 against 1888 the correspond
ing week last year. Failures in Canada
number % against 81 last year.

Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
say:
Encouraging reports of commercial con-
ditions outnumber adverse statements and
in almost every instance earlier gains are
fully maintained while the growth of con-
fidence is evidenced by increased prepa-
rations for fall trade and revival OF
structural work.
Railway earnings for July were 1916 per
cent. smaller than in the same month last
year.
More interest is shown in the iron and
steel markets than at any carrier date
this year, although the railways are not
buying freely.
Results at the first big auction sale OF
dress goods were most satisfactory, rela-
lively high prices being realized. SO that
the situation is not unsettled by Gepress-

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of tho Days Dealings In All
The Leading Stocks.

New York. Aug. 1T was a day of
speculative excitement in the stock mar
kct and of violent and erratic price
fluctuations. The bull movement started
on it's way prosperously and reached a
new high stage of prices for the year,
with great animation and buoyancy in
the dealings. At the accelerated pace Of
the advance the movement overran itself,
to some extent, and paid the penalty in a
sharp setback The market was the lars-
est in volume of the present year.
The bears saw a chance to regain an
advantage and raided prices downward in
quest for stop-loss orders. the two
Guggenheim stocks were conspicuous fea-
lures from the outset by reason of the
late bulge yesterday, and when ~ points
had been added to yesterdays fA-point
gain in American Smelling and Jumps OF
a full point between sales were made, the
market took alarm. Prices made by I'M

Not American Will, Must Guide.

Paris. Aug. 7.-Nephews of Charles Ru-
bens, who died in Paris in 1906, bequeath-
ing se,Oo0000 to two friends in New York

lea, became naturalzed, amassed for
tune in the diamond trade, and returned
to Erance in 1868.
The nephews declare that this being so,
the properly of the dead man should be

bach maintain as that the will Of Rubens
was drawn in America the French laws
do not apply.
The matter is now before the French
courts.
