New York. Aug. l6.-Bradstreet's
says:
Improvement is more manifest In
general trade and industry this week,
but there Is still present the feeling
OF conservatism hitherto noted. which
makes for small and frequent rather
than heavy individual sales
Developments have been largely
favorable, Chief among these the In
creased arrivals Of buyers in most
markets, greater disposition to take
sold for fall and spring delivery and
a very favorable government crop re-
port Jobbing trade expands most rap
idly and retail trade Is now engaged
in digesting the remnants Of summer
business.
The railroad situation Is improving
and idle cars are disappearing on the
western lines as the winter wheat
movement enlarges. Industries are ac
tive. iron and steel leading, with rail
roads reported buying freely Of rails
ears and locomotives. There y IN
creasing evidence OF growing scarcity
Of help in some sections. Collections
show a little improvement, but as We
do not reflect the influence Of new
crop marketing. Building is active.
