CONSIDERABLE fuss is being made
all over the country about the eXhibi-
ton of the moving pictures of the
Jeffries johnson prize fight and in
many cities such exhibition has been
prohibited. This situation results
simply from the fact that the moving
picture men worked the advertising
racket overtime. The accounts of
preparations for taking the pictures
and the story of the big sum of money
invested all of which was to advertise
the business, aroused the curiosity of
the people with the result that a GER
tain class who want nOtoriety got
busy and tried to prevent the exhibi-
tion of the pictures. This act is not
prompted by any sense of the moral
untitness of the pictures. Prize fight
pictures have been exhibited ever
since prize fighting became prominent
and never word said about it. The
same people who are now holding up
their hands in holy horror have view.

INDUSTRIAL SITUATION

Below we print r. g. Dun q Cos,
review of the industrial situation fol
last week. This company covers the
entire country and their report of the
situation is the most reliable TO be
had as it has the most competent
corps of correspondents obtainable
and has access to information that is
not given out to daily newspapers.
This article it will be seen that condi-
tions are improving which indicates
anything but the hard times some
have been predicting:
Business in all its branches waits
on the outcome of the years crops.
The crop situation, as it now appears
points to great yield of corn, prob
ably in excess of three thousand mil
lion bushels, reduced yield of wheat,
and cotton indefinite Winter wheat
has turned out well. in fact much
better than was anticipated some
time ago, but there has been some in

ed country merchants in the North,
west to cancel orders for fall mer.
chandise until they can be more con
fident as to the harvest. Fortunately
rains have now relieved the situation
in the drought regions and prevented
further injury; and it is not unlikely
that in the final outcome the crop
damage. as is usually the case, will
he found to have been exaggerated,
Be that as it may, however, the corn
crop will cOunterbalance a reduced
yield of wheat, and if there should in
addition be an adequate cotton crop,
this would go far toward creating
good trade and industrial conditions
during the remainder of the year.
Ia the meatime the leading industries
are experiencing more than the Gus
tomary midsummer dullness, and cur
tailment of production and price con
cessions continue. There is, however,
an improved demand in footwear. The
hot weather has helped the distribu-
ton of merchandise in some lines
and retarded it in others. Retail
trade, as is pointed out by one of the
largest mercantile houses in the
United States, is much better than
wholesale trade, which has been
largly demoralized by the price situa-
tion. This indicates fair consump-
tion OF merchandise, making for
sound conditions at the bottom. The
financial position is improving, and
sterling exchange is declining to a
point making further gold imports
probable. Railroad earnings in the
first week of July gained 7.6 per cent.
Bank clearings outside of New York
show increases of n per cent over
1909 and of l6.l per cent over 1906,
while in New York there is decrease
of 1.5 and an increase of 6.2 per cent
respectively. Foreign commerce at
New York in the latest week aggre-
gated S23,407 ,056, against S23,695, ,475
in 1909 and $20,642,592 in 1908. I'm

With the advent of fall general
awakening of interest is looked for in

iron continues at good rate, but un
certainly as to prices is a deterrent

from the Pittsburg district indicate
that the railroads are in somewhat
urgent need of various forms of equip
ment and are expected to enter the
market as active buyers before long,
while in most directions the structu
raj trade gives promise of a good fu
ture business.
Dry goods buyers are coming to
the primary markets more freely and
many of them will attend the semi
annual meeting of the wholesalers
association next week. Immediate
requirements for goods are being fill
ed conservatively and operations are
growing broader on spring lines of
cOttons.
A quota of buyers are now in the
Boston market and many Of them
have contributed to the recent better
trade in footwear by placing good
fall orders. Lower prices were ac-
cepted on late sales. Leather con-
tinues generally slow, although re-
ports from Boston indicate some
what better trade in the east and
curtailment by tanners is general
the effort being to prevent further
declines.
Earlier estimates of the total wheat
crop this year are now being modi-
fled because of serious injury bv
drought in the northwest, which.
however, is now relieved by copious
rains. Whether the needed moisture
came to late to repair any of the dam
age is uncertain, but it has at least
stopped further deterioration and
sentiment is improved. The July
government report showed an almost
unprecedented decline in the condi-
tion of spring wheat, but this unfay-
orable feature was largely offset by a
promised corn harvest in excess Of
three billion bushels. Wheat con-
tinues to move to market more rap
idly than a year ago, receipts of

ing with l,l88,462 bushels, but ex.

States -four included, were only 49O,-
