 New York. November 1--R. c. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade tomor- row will say
 So far as the business outlook is concerned conditions continue with remarkable activity and soundness in most industrial and mercantile lines. One of the most important develop ments is the energy and courage Of the railroads in the purchase of new rolling stock and other supplies in cIder to prepare for the expansion ot trade. Production in iron and steel is limited only by capacity of mills and time and labor and yet consump- tion still outstrips production and prompt delivery is difficult In rails some mills are sold ahead up to June and new business keeps up well not withstanding that rollings for spring track laying cannot be made by tho leading interests. There is a continued scarcity of crude steel and lots for prompt delivery command a premium while steel bars, plates and shapes are strongly held.
 The dry goods trade has been steady and prices have shown pronounced firmness In cottons the jobbing trade is receiving reorders quite freely and as stocks in first hands are low the maintained demand accounts for the firmness in values and the readiness with which prices advance with the ap- pearance of ordinary buying. Print cloths and convertibles are slightly higher and some readjustment of prices in bleached goods is expected. Ducks and cloths are well under contract percales continue to sell we'll and Ginghams are firm while tickings and denims are under order for the next few weeks. Export shipments continue large. There is steady call for all kinds of woolens and worsteds and many re- quests are being made for immediate delivery of goods not yet due. The shoe trade is reasonably active and firm. Leather and hides continue yery strong with advancing prices So far as the agricultural situation has changed it is for the better and | it is especially noteworthy this week that while the weather continues fa- vorable for cotton and receipts are heavy, prices have advanced because ! Of a large demand from the mills. Thus in every direction low stocks. coupled with restored confidence and revived activity create demand that tests productive capacity.

TRADE MOVEMENTS
 CONTINUE GOOD Buying Unabated in Cereal Producing Sections JOBBING TRADE GOOD Wheels of Industry Move at Swift Pace-In Iron and Steel Lines
 a Sold Ahead Condition
 Prevails
JOBBING TRADE GOOD
New York, November -Bradstreets

New York, November 1.-Bradstreets tomorrow will say:
 Trade movements, considered in a Icollective sense, show no material hesi- tancy because of the imminence of the presidential election. In the great sur plus cereal producing sections buying continues unabated, and it is only In the east that there is a tendency to mark time but there, as elsewhere, busi- ness is strongly buttressed with orders previously booked. The integral fea- ture of the situation can be encom- passed in the statement that there is need for goods and that stocks with first hands are light. the shortage of labor together with heavy consumptive requirements having made for under production.
 Jobbing trade in the northwest, |southwest and middle west continues exceptionally good, those from Texan points being pre-eminently soft. while in the east buying from jobbers Is of the small-lot but frequent type, prin- eipally through the mails
 Throughout a large part of the south and on to the Pacific coast improvement Is rairrored forth, though in the lower south Atlantic states things are dull, this section being about the only back ward part of the country for which condition a poor and late cotton crop is mainly responsible. The wheels of industry continue to move at a swift pace. Tn the iron and steel lines q sold-ahead condition prevails and ma terial for railway and equipment con- |cerns is being taken in liberal quanti- ties. Buyers of tin plates, hoops and plates are booked as far forward as the third quarter of 1913.
 Jobbing trade in dry goods, groceries and shoes continues to manifest activity. though some reservation must be made for the former line in the east. Busi- ness failures in the United States for the week ending October 31, were 256 against 229 last week, 200 in the like week of 1911, 179 in 1910, PIP in 1909 and 205 in 1908.
 Wheat, including flour, exports from the United States and Canada for the week ending October 31 aggregate 6.49S,275 bushels against 6,655,961 last week and 4,66S,500 this week last year.
 For the IS weeks ending October 31. exports are 74,40S60 bushels against 55,037799 in the corresponding period last year
 Corn exports for the week are S1,- 1920 bushels against 129,138 last week and S2s,613 in 1911. For the IS weeks ending October 31, corn exports are ll ,406,2S0 bushels against 10,360,91S last Wear.
