Dun's Review pays: . - \ Gradual Improvement in the commercial gitua tion Is encuuraj-'lrig, although the volume of trade lias not expanded in proportion to the growth of eonfldence. Resumption of work at manufactur ing plants Is the best evidence of progress, the numbfr of unemployed Fteadily. thougii afowly. diminishing. Scarcity of water is an adverse in fluence at several points, but early relief Is pre «liited. Idle freight cars decreased 30.371 during th" last fortnight covered by the association's sta tistics, and tlie number out of repair was reduced T)y 7.€€2, making- a net gain if 88,033 cars In The number in use. Yet railway earnings thus far re ported for September were 5.7 per cent smaller than in 1907, indicating that tht-re Is rtlll much 3ost gTound to be regained. Retail trade in fall •wearing apparel develops slowly, but jobbers have had a fairly good reason and are now shipping freely. Several returns for the last week exhibited little or no iobs, as compared with similar figures 2or 1807. notably shoe shipments, flour output and hank exchanges at some points. Foreign com merce at this port alone for the latest week showed a gain of $2,023,245 In exports and a loss r>T 51.435.380 in imports. Full official returns of foreign trade for the whole country in August Fhowed a jraJn In exports as compared with the month preceding-, but a loss of almost $17,000,000 In comparison with August, 1907. As the decrease in imports was twice as heavy, however, interna tlonaJ baiancee were much more favorable than a year ago. Tet rates of foreign exchange are near er tbe point at which gold may be exported, partly becacse of the return of securities hold abroad, and also on account of cheap money here. Fart of the recent sharp rise Jn prices nf stocks w;j«= iopt this ■week, although the level is still higher than a v»ar ago. "Wheat pricey are also abnormally hitrli. and a conservative rrtirriate based on latest sta tistics evailable indicates that the value of nil farm products tliis v<--ar will far eclipse all rec ords at $8,500,000,000. Bank exchanges at Xew Tork 1.6 per cent larger than in th«» same w^ek last year, while at other leading cities there was s. loss of €.1 per cent. Bradstreet's Fays: Business In general has pxpprienred a further moderate improvement in Jobbing as well as in •wholesale lines. Fall trade has reached the max imum at some cities, and most out-of-town mer char.te have left the larger centres for home. though state fairs and fall carnivals are attract ing visitors to various sections, thus enlarging the volume of trade. On the whole, purchases h» been confined chiefly to staples, and no mor* than actual needs have . been filled; therefore Fales have been considerably below those of last y»ar at this **>ason. This conservatism, for •which approaching elections and tbe diminished purchasing power of rhe public, outside of the Agricultural regions, are responsible, is looked npon with come degree of patisfactlon. it being felt that. Inasmuch as retailers' stocks are not burdensome, a constantly good fihirg-in order Trade should be experienced throughout the fall and winter. Tf production is kept well i n bounds during the balance of the year the opening of 3509 should witness light stocks, which would prepare trade for revival after the turn of the new year. In fact, there is a well defined move ment to hold down purchases until the advent of 3909. the object being to prevert supplies from becoming unwieldy. Relatively best reports come from the larger cities of the We«t and Southwest, but Southern and Pacific Northwest ern cities also contribute good returns.

Shorts Heavy Buyers — Banks Lose Money on Week's Currency Movement. In yesterday's stock market the movement at values in the greater part of the five hours of business was in the direction of higher prices, advances being due to buying by the shorts and purchases by speculative interests who evidently believed that the decline in Wednesday's and Thursday's dealings warranted a return move ment on the bull side of the account. The Erie, Reading, Southern Pacific, Union Pacific and United States Steel issues were In demand in the early trading, but the buying power was not heavy enough to bring about striking gain?, while In the early afternoon selling from the professional clement was an important influence in discouraging further ac tive transactions for a better quotation level. The most depressing feature of the market from the bull point of view was its tendency to become dull on the advance. Al the close the/ greater number of issues showed net gains, but there was nothing ap pioachJng bull enthusiasm among room traders. Good buying was reported in some of thu low priced issues, notably the Colorado & Southern shares, while bond houses received further heavy orders for investment account. Conservative firms say that investment shares— that is, the stocks of the leading railroad and Industrial companies, and the mortgage issues of the same ■concerns — do not look dear at prevailing quota tions, but that stocks bought on borrowed money for purely speculative profits ought to be protected by heavy margins, notwithstanding the- ease in the loan market. In the last few minutes of trading yesterday prices showed decided strength on covering by the shorts, which apparently was induced by ac tive buying of Union Pacific by a house which is supposed to represent the inside interests. According to the known movement of money in the week, the local banks have lost $5,735,000 in cash holdings, due to Sub-Treasury transfers of funds for local institutions to out of town ]>oints and to direct shipments of currency t'» the West in connection with the financing of the crops. It is quite likely that to-day's state ment of the Clearing House banks will show a decrease in reserves, unless the liquidation in stocks in the week has been heavy enough to bring about a material contraction in bank loans, but inasmuch as actual money holdings of thr city banking institutions are enormous, and far in excess of current needs of the loan market, iliere need be no uneasiness over the immediate future of the money market. And from present indications there will be nothing la the money market in the course of the autumn months that will cause disturbance in Wall Street, barring a speculation in stocks that might become heavily overextended on the bull ■Jde "f the market. Gold to the amount of moro than $X,400,0U0 was engaged in this city yesterday for ship ment to Argentina and Canada. Foreign ex change conditions at present make possible ex }»>rts of the metal to Argentina, where there is an active demand for the metal on London, and the engagement yesterday reflected a disposition on the part of the last named centre to shift the burden of supplying the South American needs to New York. It is not considered likely gold will be sent from this point to Europe in any volume. If at all. in spite of present strength in the sterling market, while the probability of increased ship ments of grain and cotton to foreign ports sug gests the accumulation of enough exchange In this city to depress sterling rates well under the gold exporting level. If gold should be needed here in the late fall as a consequence of shipments of funds to the interior no trouble would be experienced in negotiating a movement of the metal to this side of the ocean.
