restrictions on dry goods trading is

not little as they increase the diff
hculty OF getting the Goods most
needed and of getting any kind in
anything like reasonable time.
X. q. Dun & COS report from the
big centcrs is not at all encouraging
TO them. 1t says:
Sharper restrictions on ordinary
trading In dry goods become apparent
as demands from governmental sources
arc augmented and Heterogeneous of
producing plans are made necessary
In about all quarters. Civilian buying
is being discouraged in many instances
and merchants are not only cautious
in accepting forward business. but
filled before new obligations are in
Cured. What seems certain is thai
many manufacturers will be unable to
complete contracts for the regular
trade for long period, AS the war
requirements grow more pressing each
week and trouble is experienced in
maintaining outputs because OF labor
conditions. Controversies over wages
have arisen in New England. %

Improved Traffic on Southern Road.

The railroads centering in Richmond
are among those that make regular
weekly reports for Dun's Review The
Review of Saturday sums up the stu
alton as follows:
Traffic on the United States rail-
roads making weekly reports OF gross
earnings continues to be maintained
in very satisfactory volume the total
of all roads, from which returns have
so far been received for the first week
in May, amounting to s6,315.704. an
increase Of 9.S per cent. as compared
with the corresponding period year
ago. This contrasts with a gain of
1903 per cent for the opening week
in April and of 1879 per cent for the
same week in March. The outstanding
feature of these returns. however, is
the feet that there is an increase OF
fully 20 per cent over the correspond
ing week In May, 1916. when earnings
were by far the largest ever recorded
for this period up to that time. \

NOV. 9Th
LAST DAY

Lake county banks have received the
following notice regarding the expira-
ton Of the bond conversion privilege.
The Secretary of the Treasury today
made the following announcements
1.-THE privilege Of converting four
percent bonds Of the First Liberty Loan
converted and four percent bonds Of the
Second Liberty Loan into four and a
quarter percent bonds expires on
November ninth. 1918. and cannot under
existing law be extended. The Treasury
has done all in its power to call the att
tention OF the bond-holders to the ex-
fsteuce Of this valuable privilege and
the date OF its expiration. Il is safe to
assume that upon the expiration Of the
conversion privilege that fact viii re-
fleet itself unfavorably in the market
price of unconverted four percent bonds
which have heretofore been maintained
substantially on a parity with the con-
verted four and a quarter per cent
bonds by the existence of the privilege
of conversion. The Treasury now asks
the newspapers of the United states,
bankers. brokers and others to do what
they can to bring these facts before the
attention of the bond holders"
