and in the case of failures, the les-
sened liabilities point to a. practical
Cussniion of the hank suspensions so
in earlier
months or this year. That the trade
and industrial world this summer ex-
pcricnced some effects of a major
industrial depression is shown in
heavy cuts in iron and steel and cot-
ton goods production from a year
ago. in the failureot a very large
cotton mill concern to meet interest
on its bonds, and in the passing by
the leading woolen manufacturing
interest of the dividend on its com-
mon stock.
It is encounlting. in view of the
mixture of light and shade in the
above paragraph. to note that. the
improvement in fall buying. aided by
“market weeks" and state fairs, has
continued this week: that the buy-
ing movement has spread from the
surplus wheat -growing states to
areas cast or the Mississippi and
along the lakes; that the railroads
have inquired (or or bought more
rails and freight cars. and that un-
employment has tended to decrease
at some additional centers. Retail
trade has improved. being helped by
buying for school clrlldren. and fall
jobbing and wholessle trade are tul-
ly fair. Recessions in prices of
wheat and cotton are reported to
have developed a. good deal of ex-
port buying cf the former and of
ispinners’ buying of the latter. while
free marketing of both of these pro-
ducts has made for the liquidation
of some old debts and for a. slight
stimulus to collections on current ac-
counts. Flour milling is more actiye
in the west and northwest. and a
gain in implement buying is noted
in agricultural regions. At some
large eastern centers. dry goods.
shoes. leather. hides and hardware
are reported selling better. though
buying is still variously described as
cautious and spotty. Bunfihg report:
