Dun & Co.'s Review.

New York, November 13.-R G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
 Expectations are being fully realized in the increased demand for manufactured products that each day reduces the per centage of idle machinery and the mum Der of unemployed. The depleted condi- ton of stocks is disclosed as business expands and throughout all industrial channels there is a sudden pressure to meet requirements that assures activity for some time at least.
 Higher prices for pig iron followed the increase in demand, consumers providing for requirements well into the future, including material for finished steel to be delivered in the spring. Furnaces have added still further to the active capacity and some have contracted for much of their output up to July 1. The better feeling is also reflected in the ore market and if weather conditions permit the movement down the lakes probably will be increased to 25,000,OO0 tons for the season. Several of the railways are in the market for steel rails, although few important contracts were actually placed this week.
 In the primary market for dry goods merchants are operating on more liberal scale than at any time since a year and a HAIL dBO- 1OllOn HILLS dTe Tdplu1y TeSuIn- ing, but accept business only where the raw cotton is controlled and an as- sured basis of profit can be established Some prices have already advanced and others are contemplated. Export business continues restricted, foreign buyers con- sdering the higher values as excessive While clothiers' salesmen have associated the trend of demand there is still an inclination to proceed cautiously in plac- ing orders for duplicate lines of spring woolens, so to be prepared for the normal quantity of cancellations. A bet ter movement of spring goods is an. tlcipated as soon as colder weather re- duces stocks of heavy weights.
 Manufacturers of boots and shoes re- port substantial increase in the orders placed by jobbers and retailers, whose stocks have been allowed to become de- pleted and who now anticipate a much larger demand Not small factor in the urgency of buyers is the upward ten dency of materials, which may soon be reflected in higher prices for the finished product Leather already sells at an ad- vance for some grades. leading tanners asking 2c more for heavy sole and about 1c for light stock. Increased activity and strength is noted in every variety of hides.

HOLIDAY TRADE EXPANDS

New York. November 13.-Bradstreets tomorrow will say:
 Expansion continues in trade and indus trial lines, shipments over the railways are increasing. idleness is being dimin- ished, prices in numerous lines are high CT collections are better and sentiment is brighter than it has been for F months past. In many sections retailers stocks are badly broken. owing to conservative purchases heretofore made, and as re- suit requests for immediate shipments are quite the rule. On this account and be- cause of more seasonable weather, sort ing-up orders in wholesale and jobbing lines are of larger volume. Spring busi-' ness is also developing quite freely, al- though widespread movement in this di- rection is not looked for until after the turn of the new year Demand for holi- day goods is increasing
 Practically every section save the south. and where the supply of water has been insufficient for industrial operations, as, for instance. parts of New England, has shared in the general improvement At
 
 tirely seasonable, and in some parts the holding of cotton for higher prices makes the dullnesc in trade and slowness in col lectcns. On the whole tine situation is becoming more favorable, though it must be recognized that outdoor operations tend to contract with the coming of winter. that some recent expansion has been tinged with a certain degree of speculation, based on anticipations of what is to come, and that the improve ment may be slow in reaching the most important centers.
