Fall Business Considerably Below
Normal, Says Bradstreet.

New York, Sept. 2S.-Following is
Bradstreet's review of trade for the
past week:
1t Is evident that fall trade is be-
low normal; that industrial opera
tons are quiet; that bank clearings,
with stock markets closed, continue
on the down grade; that failures r
numerous, and that the general rule
is to buy for nearby pressing needs
rather than to future require
ments. P~erplexities arising from
high OF low prices, as the case may
be, upset calculations, while the diff
ficulties encountered in getting ready
money at reasonable rates, checks
buying in a great many lines.
On the other hand it must be con-
coded that farmers in the sur
plus wheat producing regions have
prospered; that retail trade has been
stimulated by the cool weather over
a wide area; that improvement in
commercial paper at some markets is
a hopeful sign; that export trade in
cereals continues of heavy volume;
while it is certain that more or less
business has been done for European
account in blankets, s~addlery, leath-
er, horses, ho~rseshoes and munitions,
and at the same time the opening of
certain cotton exchanges in the south
for spot transactions affords a price
making basis for cotton.
Bank clearings for the week ending
September "a, according to Brad
streets, aggregated $2,281, 600,
a decrease of 1913 per cent from the
same week last year; business fail
ures were 366, against 2S7 last year;
wheat exports, 6,858,639 bushels,
against 4,980,265 bushels last year.
