weekly Trade. Review

NEW YORK, July 29.-Bradstreet'S tomorrow
will say: TRADE is still quiet as whole, more
week and quieter than ordinarily at this
midsummer period. While conservatism still
jobbers. and retail or final distribution is still
disappointing. there are. however, some move
ments which indicate more optimistic outlook
in leading basic lines.
''There are better reports as to the demand for
finished iron and steel, copper, some makes of
cotton goods, based apparently on the advance

r. G. Dun & Co S Weekly Review of Trade
tomorrow will say:
There is no lack of evidence that the bust

depression in Wall street would indicate. A

no sign of abatement in this direction.

CHICAGO. July 29.-It wss an irregular but

DEMANDS FOR
STOCKS LESSEN

NEW YORK, July 29.-The stock
market today showed the effects
of the rapid recovery from the
acute depression of the early part
of the week. The usual after re-
suits of sudden and violent turn
in the market began to appear.
The substantial reduction of the
short interests diminished the ur-
gency of the demand, and made it
less easy for the opposing spec
ulative party to bid up prices
The action of the market had
the inevitable effect of modifying
speculative opinions of conditions
in themselves unchanged. This
was seen in the suggestion of
flaws in the effectiveness of the
settlement Of the Pearson syndi
Gates difficulties.
The question was heapd whether
the concentra tion of power over
the railroad systems Of the coun-
try, which would result from the
surrender of that syndicate's large
cotrol TO banking interests al
ready affiliated with rival and
competing interests, might stim-
ulate renewed agitation against
the power of centralized capital
and induce more stringent legisla-
tion for the repression of these
tendencies.
The determination to discon-
tinue dividends on the Atlas port
land cement stock was used to
contest the rise in prices. The in
cident scarcely leads itself to
supposition of declining business,
as the possession of large con-
tracts with the government for
Panama canal supplies makes it
necessary TO divert resources for
an increase of capacity.
The special nature of these con-
tracts also detracts from their i'm
portance, as showing any sign of
general trade expansion. AS an
evidence of the difficulty Of enlist
ing new capital, however, the in
cident has real Importance.
Preliminary estimates of the
WSSh ; CURRENCY movement gave
a rate of inflow to New York
bank reserves that carried it's
suggestion of decreasing trade re-
quirements for money. The gain
for the week from various sources
seems to have reached an aggre-
gate of over $12,00O.00o.
Bonds were firm. Total sales
(par value), $2,934.00O
United States bonds were un-
changed on call.
