WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Bradstreefs and DHns Agree Reopening of Foreign
Trade VIII Fully Restore American Prosperity
100000 Men Thrown Out of Work BY War.

New York. Aug n.-Dun's Review viii
say tomorrow:
Prompt and effective action by the
government in cooperation with leading
Representatives Of American business Is
steadily making for the restoration OF
more normal conditions in foreign trade.
There is nothing either unsound or un-
promising IN the domestic trade and crop
situation, all the disturbance now ex-
perienced In the market being due to the
Interruption OF foreign commerce and the
suspension OF the usual foreign exchange
transactions caused by the European
war. With the reopening OF our foreign
trade on a liberal scale, there should be
a return to full normal prosperity In
American business.
While domestic industry and trade are
held in check by the war. nevertheless
there Is a gratifying exhibition OF pa
tlence and courage. The actual decline
In transactions as exhibited by the bank
elearings is about q per cent, as com
pared with last year while the reduction
Of railroad gross earnings in the first
two weeks of August amounts to as per
cent. In the iron and steel trade there
Is little new business at the higher prices
now asked, but there Is a liveky antici-
patton Of the possibilities Of increased
operations as soon as the export traffic
blockade Is broken and all lines realize
new opportunities in foreign lines have
been created
In the dry goods trade those lines
which depend upon foreign supplies. such,
for instance. as dyestuffs and max, are
temporarily affected, but new business
viii surely come later on. A corn crop
of 30 1900. 900 bushes Is the latest esti-
mate, which would equal the average
yield Of the last ten years. i
Very fair inquiries for finished ma
terials in iron and steel are reported
from England. Canada. the Pacific Coast,
and South America, although few actual
contracts have as yet been closed.
Supply and demand conditions In the
dry goods markets are affecting prices
IN varying ways. Generally speaking
wool products are rising. silks are steady
and cotton irregular. business IN fne cot
tons being active, but in print cloths
quiet"

New York. Aug. 2l.-Bradstreets tomor-
row viii say:
''Unsettlement Is still the word best
characterixing the general financial and
trade situation. but an increasing num-
Der Of favorable features present them
selves as time passes and the net result
Of the weeks operations is apparently
some definite. though perhaps slow,
progress toward better conditions.
The financial situation has improved
moderately this week, the exchange
market has begun 20 resume Its fune-
lions. exports OF wheat have expanded
after the slump Of last week. railway
embargoes on Western grain shipments
have been partially removed, the move
ment from the farms IL larger. trade dis
tribution has enlarged In nearly all lines
at the West and Northwest, domestic
goods have begun to suppIant foreign
makes In fall trade, notably in finished
steel, groceries, canned goods, drugs and
dry goods, including wooden gods
hosiery. laces and embroideries, and there
is more doing in some types OF fine and
heavy cottons. The crop situation has
improved in that corn in some sections
shows improvement because of rains,
though the crop will hardly be an aver
age one, and cotton crop prospects have
distinctly improved
A special inquiry by Bradstreets at
100 cities OF the United States fails to
show quite as much idleness as has been
intimated. At large Eastern ports the
interruption TO shipping trades has led
to pronounced idleness in longshore work
and large numbers Of clerical workers
are reported temporarily or permanently
idle. In industrial lines there has been
some difficulty apparently in discriminat-
ing between idieness caused by past de-
preston and that caused directly or in
rectly by the war. However. reports from
forty-two out OF 100 cities show no ad-
dition TO Idle hands caused by the war.
while at fifty-eight other cities the ag-
gregate unemployed from wars causes Is
not much over 10000 men.
Business failures for the week ending
August 20 were 81, which compares with
rs last week and Z7s in the like week OF
1873"

Georgia Cotton Situation.
H. H. Brown, manager for n. L Car
penter, has received the following tele-
gram from Maddox-Rucker Company,
cotton merchants, of Atlantis. Ga
The handling of the cotton crop In
Georgia II 50 far only . matter Of dis
cussion. Fortunately the gathering OF
the crop Is being very much delayed by
rain None Of the Georgia towns are re-
ceiving any cotton TO speak Of. With us
we do not look for any movement for
thirty days. We have not received our
first bale. It is a matter that depends
very much upon the farmer. II he be-
comes panic-stricken II will be very bad
and cotton will sell low. but We have
seen the farmer stop selling entirely and
hold back for two months, forcing his
creditors to wait on him, and 1 am In
clined 10 think he viii take that position
this season ana a. lcdbl me-
slowly. for they are better able TO mar
ket their crop slowly than they ever
have been before. I look for very light
marketing and only by the tenant and
negro class for the next sixty days, and
I hope the situation will clear up. Crops
are fine"
Japan and Our Cotton
Confirmation Is lacking Of the report
from ST. Louis that Japan has ordered
ZOO, 900 bales OF American cotton and
while this figure il exaggerated II Is not
improbable that japanese mills will
take more American cotton than hereto
fore especially II 1t goes to a low fig
ure. Japan's spinning requirements now
approximate 10000 bales. Her principal
source for raw cotton is India and the
Chinese are growing an increasing guam
tity for japanese spindles. For the year
