Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-In its weekly
summary of the general business sit
uation the Standard Statistics Co. OF
New York currently comments as fol-
lows:
Business news, in the main, con-
tinues unfavorable. Steel operations
have declined to a new low and no
important improvement is looked for
until late this winter at the earliest.
Despite optimistic press reports, the
response to the 1898 automobile
models has not, to date, been particu-
larly encouraging and it is understood
that number of automobile pro-
ducers are revising their production
schedules materially.
Textile activity is still tagging and
price cuts have failed to revive con-
sumner interest. Building construction
is continuing to decline seasonally.
"One of the most disturbing fea-
lures of the present business outlook
Is that primary raw material prices
have not yet shown any signs OF
stability. despite the wide declines in
recent months. The price weakness
has been general, both here and
abroad, suggesting that dehationary
influences are at work throughout the
world"
