General Trade Conditions.

Bradstreet's says: Elimination of
the railway strike, for the time being
at least, very high prices for cereals,
extraordinary quotations for cotton
and record high wages make up a
quartet of remarkable features upon
which trade conditions center.
With the railway strike out of the
way, business interests breathe more
freely, the concern and feverish spot
buying incident to the embargoes of
last week have been superseded by
optimism and business as we'll as in
dustry moves along to the tune of
smart activity.
Confidence in the future is marked
by animated buying for fall and win
ter delivery, with, however, some di-
minution in hurried ordering so note
worthy last week when thoughts of
railway strike were uppermost, and
at the same time there had been some
shading of prices that were specula-
lively bOlstered up last week.
Nevertheless, prices on the whole
continue high, and even in sections
supposedly most afflicted by reduced
yields of wheat, extraordinary quota
tons with good yields of other crops
cause trade trends to work upward
on the theory that incomes will be suf-
ficient to keep things moving. Week
ly bank clearings, $4,637,799, 900.

London, Sept. 19.-Along a one
mile front the British have advanced
another 1000 yards and have captured
a German fortified work which had
previously resisted all their efforts.
This operation is characterized by
General Haig, the British command
er, as important and highly success
full. 1t is indicative fthe intention
of the British commander to force
the battle along the Somme front
without cessation, the new advance
being a continuation of the powerful
movement undertaken by the British
and French on Friday last.
North and south of the Somme in
France British and French troops are
keeping up their vigorous offensive
and have achieved further successes
and put down strong German coun
ter attacks.

yards was made, and the strongly de-
Tended position at the Moquet farm

and Berry, and also captured all the
ground between Vermandovilliers and
Deniecourt and between Deniecourt

front running northeast two miles
and thence east another mile.
French Successes.
The advance of the British appar-
emily brings their front to within a
mile of Grandcourt and the Albert
Bapaume railway. Grandcourt is be-
ing bombarded by the British. The
success of the French seemingly is
another move of the right flank of
the entente toward the pocketing of
Peronne.
Hard fighting has been resumed
from the Pripet marsh region in Rus
STA, through Galicia and up in the
Carpathian mountains. Berlin and vi
emma claim the repulse of Russian
