TRADE REVIEW
Money and Exchange Markets Max
ing Progress.

New York, Nov. 2.-Following is
Dun's review of trade for the past
week:
Important progress made in the
work of adjusting the machinery of
the money and exchange markets to
the new world conditions created by
the European war and the business
outlook is brighter. Outside Of GER
tain industries. however, in which
there is a demand from abroad for
war supplies, domestic trade still
awaits the quickening impulse Of
commercial enterprise. The declin-
ing business and revenue of the
American railroads even more than
the menace OF the European war is
now mainly responsible for restric-
ton in some important industries.
Failures this week in the United
States were 434. compared with 296
last year; in Canada, So, against 80
last year.
Bank clearings were s~2,062,634,-
900, a decrease OF 25.9 per cent from
last year.
Wheat exports were $685. 1913
bushels. compared with ~2.987.100 a
year ago.
