WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Many More Points Of Gain Than Of Loss in General In
dusrial Situation, Despite Change to Mlder Weather,
According to Widespread Trade Reports.

New York, Oct 22-R g. Dun & Co s
weekly review OF trade tomorrow will
say:
Even the change to rnilder weather did
not materially lessen retail demands
and there are still many more points Of
gain than of loss in the general stu
alton. This fact is made clear in re-
ports from the principal centers. as well
as by the various statistical gauges that
measure by movements and volumes
Bank clearinEs outside of New York
largely surpass those OF recent years.
gross railroad earnings are steadily ris-
ing. the upward trend OF commodity
prices Is unchecked. and the increase in
commercial borrowing gives Indication
Of trade expansion.
Evidence Of wideninsActivity is appar-
ent In nearly every important depart
ment and in localities where no sign Of
II was manifest short time ago. Prog
ress is more rapid. as II should be, in the
industrial than in the trading field, and
Is most pronounced at cities where the
manufacture OF war supplies Is now the
leading occupation.
As reflection of the enormous for
eisn requirements merchandise ship
ments are reaching unprecedented totals
and the excess OF exports over imports
Is mounting so fast that gold Is flowing
here at an unparalleled rate. The boom
In iron and steel goes on apace condi-
tons in leather are more satisfactory
than In any time in more than a wear.
and the textile mills are running at full
capacity.
With the productive force steadily
enlargtng. the distribution of wages az
fords an increasing fund for purchas Sc,
that VIII ultimately benefit all branches
OF business in all parts Of the country.
Already the effects of full employment
OF labor are visible in the broadening
consumptive demands for clothing, food
stufs. and other necessities. and this
Is true not only OF the East. but also
or the West and South. Conditions IN
the latter section are notably improved,
higher cotton prices more than comnen-
sating for the reduced crop, while the
unusually successful agricultural season
In the West Is factor of far-reachinr

Of the industrial ehares touched new
high levels and the railroads displayed
strength, the stock market became re-

played two spurts of strength. followed
by Quiet Subsequently, buying orders
came into the issue which started the ad-
vance that carried II to 1f9 IA Aside from
vague reports that il is to go into the
huge steel company being formed by the
Schwab interests and that it has re-
ceived large war orders, there is no ex-
PLANTATION for the rise except that the
people are specializing wildly in the issue.
The continued large increase in ex-
ports of the United States insure
prosperity and growing traffic for the
railways, especially the Western prop
critics, and for that reason the con-
sentative brokers were again trying
to induce customers to get into the
rails.

other compilation of the volume of
American railroad stock held by for

report on this subject was made as of
