BETTER IN ALL LINES
With Prospects Of Good Crops Inn
provements in Trade Are General
and Business Active.

New York;. g. Dun C Co.'S week
~ review of trade said: W.
Business activity now awaits the
outcome of the growing crops, and as
crop reports continue to favor large
harvests there Is a noticeable i'm
provement in business confidence,
with some gain ID actual trade trans
actions, although purchases are still
conducted with conservatism and
there is no moderate buying for future
needs.
Iron Looking Up.
For the first time in many weeks
there are signs of recovery from the
depression in the iron and steel trade;
and while pig iron continues very dull.
there are increased orders for finish
ed steel, notably in the structural and
wire divisions The railroad demand
is also looking up, which promises
well for the future.
Dry Goods Improves.
In dry goods there is more improve
ment in sentiment than in activity,
and the increased confidence is based
upon strength impaired to the situa-
ton by the low stocks and upon the
effect of bright crop prospects. The
actual demand is much below the nor.
NAL point, but gives evidence Of some
expansion. The foreign trade is, how
ever, largely in excess of last year,
and this is, next to fayoring agricul.
tural conditions, the brightest spot in
the whole business situation. The
strong statistical position of stocks in
first hands and the notable crrtail
ment in production which still pre-
walls in dry goods lines confirm the
feeling OF confidence in the future. al
though present business is very quiet
