ufacturers, badly hit during the days
when consumers had to think hard be-
fore using a bottle of lotion, find sales
running ahead of last year and the
outlook encouraging for the balance of
the year.
As purchasing power continues to re-
spond to the recovery campaign, retail
drug outlets report that merchandise is
moving in larger volume A projection
of this trend leads to the estimate that
drug producers should show an increase
OF from 10 to Is per cent in volume
during the last six months of 1888 as
compared with the same period a year
ago.
Executives in the drug trade, how
is difficult to compute because the in
dustry did not shift prices during the
depression period in the sharp degree
followed generally by business
This means, it is explained. that
drugs will not participate in the pres
ent advancing trend Of commodity
prices to the same degree as otherwise
would be expected. Thus, expansion in
profits of most companies, say specialists
in this field, will be more or less direct
relationship with the gain in sales
volume.
On the other hand, some of the
leading drug manufacturers feel that
the drug trade code-not yet fully
adopted-will more than make up for
any existing deficiencies. The new
code, as now outlined, would prohibit
the sale of drugs. cosmetics and toilet
ries at less than cost, and prohibit
Substitution" attempts on the part Of
salesmen. These are the practices, state
manufacturers, which are largely re-
sponsible for reducing profits Of the
drug trade.

CAPITAL CLEAR|NGS
LOWER IN AUGUST
Slump Laid to Restrictions
= Left on Banks and
Trade LuII.
BY EDWARD c. STONE.

Bank clearings in the National Cap
ital in August were lower than in July
and also under the total for August,
1882, according to the monthly figures
compiled today by the Washington
Clearing Association One important
reason assigned for the slump is the
number of banks here which are still
operating on greatly restricted sched-
ules. Another reason is the fact that
August is always a quiet month in
business circles.
Checks passing through the Clearing
House in August totaled S45, ,405 ,937.77.
compared with an aggregate sum OF
68,830,6l9 in August last year and
$51 1923, 1876 in July of the present year.
ClearingS for the first eight months
of 1888 amounted to $685. 1859. .969.91, in
comparison with S664 1852 ,854.70 in the
corresponding eights of 1882. Part OF
this decline is. of course, due to the
fact that in March all banks were
closed during the national bank mora
torium.
Clearings for the first eight months
of 1888 compare with the corresponding
period in 1888 as follows, according to
the complete records kept by the Wash
ington Clearing House Association:
