BUSINESS DRACS
IN FIFTH DISTRICT
Building Permits Exhibit
Better Showing Than
Other Indicators.
BY EDWARD C. STONE

Business in the Fifth Federal Reserve
District in February continued the set
back which started last fall, although
the recession appeared to have leveled
off since the turn of the year, the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond
said this noon in the monthly review.
The banks review showed larger
number of idle workers than at any
time for year or more and shortened
hours reduced pay rolls in many indus
tries which have not redu"ed the num-
Der of workers.
Bankruptcies in the district increased
slightly in number and moderately in
liabilities in comparison with figures
for February, 1887, but the fifth dis
trict record was better both in number
and liabilities than the national rec
ord
New automobile registrations fell
1873 per cent below the figures for
February of last year. Construction
continued to lag far below normal lev
els, although the estimated value of
building permits issued in 81 fifth dis
trict cities in February exceeded Feb
ruary, 1887, valuation by 13 per cent.
Conracts actually awarded for con-
struction in the district last month
totaled 1873 per cent less than the ag-
gregate amount of contracts awarded
in February last year.
Tobacco Sales Up S4S ZOO, 900.
Coal production declined further in
February In cotton textiles the rate
of operations in February declined
slightly from the January rate. and
production exceeded sales, inventories
at mills increasing after falling in
January.
Tobacco sales in February were
small. most markets having closed
for the season. Producers received
approximately sl87,5l8,33O for the
1887 crop. an increase of S48651, ,87O,
or IS per cent over S138,866, ,460 re-
ceived for the 1886 crop.
An unusual development at this sea-
son, the bank reported, was the rise
in the actual circulation of Federal
Reserve notes
The reporting member banks, the
only marked change between the mid
die of February and the middle of
March was substantial decline in
demand deposits.
