Is of a wholesale character und Is ex pected to become moro widespread as the season advances anil autumn demands develop more fully. Labor troubles, of which the unthraelte coal strike is the most prominent, have a restraining effect, but do not check progress generally there being various offsetting factors. Accumulating evidence expresses the Improved commercial condi tions in agricultural sections, while the sustained revival In the Iron and steel Industry, the unusual ac tivity In building construction, the unprecedented railroad freight traffic and the smaller number of failures are among the other fnv orable phases. It Is reassuring that signs of inflation are lacking there being no speculative excess in trade such as have brought about sharp reactions on some previous occa sions.
