 Factories In this district seemed to have reached their hiring peak about November IS and since that time orders have been scattered with skilled workers predominately In de- mand. There appears to Dc an in- Aux of applicants from out of state, especially from Maine. This Is probably due to the pickup in the industrial work in this city, Several good placements were made in re- tail stores and 1t Is expected that there will be many more demands for retail workers in view of an eX- pected increase In Christmas h'isi- ness. Domestic worker placement was better than in the correspond ing month last year, but showed a decrease over last month. Many workers who originally registered for domestic work now seek place. ment with industrial concerns. De- creases were noted in the farm and construction worker divisions.

 While the manufacturing plants continue to work on full time basis. the hiring of new employees has decreased somewhat. However, ct the present time, there arc no signs of layoffs and the majority of employers expect to continue with their present forces for some iine. Mercantile establishments report 6 decided increase in business over tle previous year. One of the largest stores reports that 1t expects to show at least c i4 percent incre ase over 1888 and, perhaps the largest increase ever experienced.
 Construction work is now slowing Up throughout the district and the outlook for the winter Is not too encouraging.
