Spanish influenza which has caused

With the exception of the Notre

Dun's Trade Review,
' York, Oct. 17.-Dun's tomorrow

New York, Oct. 17.-Dun's tomorrow
will say:
No slackening Of the vigorous produce
tive effort in the leading industries has
resulted from the continued discussion Of
peace prospects, but the question Of prob
able future readjustments has entered
more largely into calculations. Signs Of
hesitation among buyers, prompted by ex-
pectations Of a later turn in the price
situation, are not wholly absent, and the
disposition to operate cautiously and well
within the limits of safety has been In
tensified. The volume of business, mean
while, has been further reduced by the
diversion Of interest to the new Liberty
loan, and the restricting effect of the
influenza epidemic has become more pro-
nounced and general. Not only has retail
trading been checked by the smaller at
tendance of customers in the shopping
districts, but manufacturing activities, no.
tably in New England and elsewhere In
the east. have also been appreciably cur
tailed by the greater inroads made into
the already depleted ranks OF labor. Week.
