Bradstreet's Report

New York. Sept. o2-Bratstrect's to-
morrow will say:
Improvement is the key word in the
general trade and industrial situation,
tho use of this term being more wide
spread than at any time since early
last spring. Cooler weather; encour-
aging sales of heavy wearing apparel:
strike settlements beneftting business
and industry in coal mining and iron
and steel conters: reaching of final
decision upon the tariff question: and
activity in building with all that this
latter implies in the way of stimulat-
ing sales of lumber. brick. hardware
paints and allied lines. are all cited
as causes for the better tone of job
hlng trade advices. again at retail and
better pace in industry. A rally in
grain prices by which wheat corn and
oats have been advanced to the high
est levels of the month. this latter be-
ing mainly attributable to war talk
has been slight additional stimulant.
Then. too. tho number of advances re-
ported recently in many commodities.
increases have exceeded declines for
three weeks past and the food index
has risen for seven weeks past, have
apparently acted as spur to some
buying. although the effect of this has
been more especially notable in whole
sale and johbng lines.
