"3 : R0GRE88IS SLOW But Confidence Is Returning in the Commercial World. v AIDED BY GOOD CROroUTLOOK Labor'DIsturbances the Most Unfav orable Factors in the Industrial Situation at the Present Time. NEW YORK, July 29. Dun's Review of Trade tomorrow will ear: Confidence appears to be returning; despite a large addition to the army of unemployed. Labor disturbances are the most unfavorable factors In. the Industrial and commercial situation at the present time, curtailing the output of a few much-needed products, and reducing the demand for all commodities. Aside from this adverse Influ ence, the situation, has Improved, although progress Is slow and frequently Interrupted. Another -week has put wheat and ootton beyond danger, and brought other crops nearer ma turity. Dealers are providing for the future a little more freely, and in several Important branches of Industry orders come forward In greater b"lk. Owing to special conditions, the leading branches of manufacture do not make uniform progress, complications as to supplies of raw material making the current situation particularly puzzling at the textile mills and shoe shops. Darnings for the railways thus far reported for July are only 2.7 per cent less than last year. While the tone of the packer hide market Is naturally very strong, on account of the packing-house 6trlko, there is no activity, tanners failing to perceive any advantage in making purchases when deliveries are a uncertain. Foreign hides arrive slowly, and are In brisk request. Failures this week numbered 220 in the United States, against 100 last year, and 18 .in Canada, compared with 10 a year ago. Bank Clearings.

Strikes In Packlng-Houseg and Cotton Mills and Probably in Mines. NEW YORK. July 29 Bradstreefs will to morrow say: More activity is noted at a few Western centers, but Fall trade Is slow to as sume form, pending assurance as to crop re sults and a settlement of existing Industrial disturbances. Crop conditions are. on the whole, favorable, though Irregularity In sec tions prevents generalization. Fall Inquiry and shipments of goods are livening up at the W est. and are expected to become active early In August. The movement of'Winter wheat to market, somewhat delayed this year, has be gun in earnest. Coincident Improvement In collections is shown at some centers, and the demand for money from the country has In creased. The movement jf currency to move the crops has assumed good proportions this week. Advices from some Western markets point to more doing In Fall dry goods, shoes and clothing. Good crop prospects have fa vorable influence on Southern trade. Trade at Eastern markets is still rather quiet. Wool Is quiet, though still firm, with medium grades relatively in best demand. On the Pacific Coast. San Francisco reports a light trade at present, but good Fall busi ness is expected. Export business Is affected by war complications. Tho salmon pack will be disappointingly small on the entire Pacific Coast Unrest In Industry Is a feature of import ance The meat strike has reopened at leading Western packing-houses, and there Is danger of sympathetic strikes embroiling railroad em ployes In addition to tho 20.000 meat-trade strikers, production of print-cloths at Fall River has come to an almost complete stop, owing to the .strike of 25,000 mill bands against reaucuon. in addition to these, the anthracite situation and the overstocking of the markets for coal renders serious disputes between op erators and miners probable. A general shut down of all mines Is expected to occur next week. Involving the idleness of 80,000 men. Other lines of tndustry are rather quiet. Iron notably so. pending a clearer view of future requirements. Business failures in the United States for the week ending July 28 number tti, against 100 last week, 100 In the like week In 1003. I In Canada failures for the week number 17, as against 10 last week, and 17 in this week. a. year ago. Wheat, including flour, exports for the week ending July 28. aggregate 1,018,265 bushels, against 1.281.501 bushels last week, 3,181.442 bushels this week last year. From July 1 td date, the exports aggregate- 5,180,174 bushels, against 12,000.024 bushels last year. Confidence Is Growing-. NEW YORK. July 29. The advices received this week from special agents of the Interna tional Mercantile Agency at the leading cen ters of the country are In the main eatlafac tory. The spirit of optimism Is growing, and confidence in a good Fall and Winter business Increases from week to week. Current activ ity In tho different Industrial lines Is not great, but It Is better than It was a year ago, with the very wholesome Influence of a faith In better things. A decided reaction has occurred in the movement of stocks, but this Is not due to any material change In business prospects. There has been good growing weather for the crops, which are approaching harvest "un der continued Improved conditions. In the Spring wheat sections of tho Northwest some rust has been discovered which will reduce i the yield. Harvesting Is In progress In nearly all the leading Winter wheat states, and the results are better than farmers thought they would be two weeks ago. It Is beginning to be believed, though, that the total yield will leave a small exportable surplus, and that the price of wheat and flour during tho next 12 months will be high.

(SpeciaU-The wheat market had a complete return of strength. December rose to and closed at $1.04U. and No. 1 to choice spot shipping at $1.37 to $1.40, theso being the highest prices of the season. The strong statistical position of wheat In this state, and the advance In dis tant markets was the main causes of Improve ment. Oregon blueetem and Walla Walla wheat, which are deliverable on merchants' exchange contracts under the amended rules, may come In handy before the season la over. Barley and oats were firmer. Flour was ac tive and well-sustained, with a good Oriental demand. Feed was firm. Hay was very weak. Selected peaches. Bartlett pears, plums and grapes were in good demand for Puget Sound ports. The steamer leaving today took large shipments. Such stock brought a. premium over regular market rates, which were easy for ordinary offerings, the latter being In heavy supply. Peaches were very weak. Citrus fruits were neglected. Bananas were dull and weak. Arrivals of river potatoes were again large, but sales were active at low prices. A mod erate shipping damand for tho Southwest was the feature. The first shipment of river sweets arrived and brought 3c Yellow onions are etlll declining. Tomatoes were offering at 25c to 40c per big box,, with few takers. Other vegetables were weak. Fine butter was steady, but ordinary grades were weak under unpreccdentedly large ar rivals.

Dealings Smaller and Fluctuations Narrower Than Usual Effect of Drop in British Consols. NEW YORK, July 29. Stocks reacted again today, but the market became much quieter. Dealings were decidedly smaller and fluctua tions much narrower, marking the declining 'oscillation due to an approach to a stationary condition after tho more violent disturbance of the earlier part of the week. The action of the market today suggested less recurrence of anxiety over the factors which brcko prices Wednesday than an undoing of some over hasty commitments made yesterday In the at tack upon the shorts In the market. Tho re newed decline In British consols, however, was not without effect upon sentiment. This ef fect was more pronounced In our wheat mar ket than in stocks, and led to a sharp advance In wheat. The strength there was also at tributable In part to reports of Inferior quality In the Winter wheat being harvested, and to rather persistent damage reports from the Spring wheat belt in the Northwest. Tho cot ton market today was not free from damage reports, and these had some natural effect on stocks. There was some early resistance to- the downward tendency, which centered chiefly In St. Paul, that stock rising at one time a large fraction over last night. United States Steel Preferred yielded early to the selling pressure on continued discussion of the quarterly re port. Other news bearing on that stock was the reported shutting down of mills for an In definite period at Lorain for lack of orders and a reported cut In tin-plate prices. Union Pacific seemed to suffer some Ill-effects from the declaration of only the regular dividend on ' the stock, although It has not appeared that any serious expectation was entertained of an Increase. The labor situation Is the subject of some anxious consideration In speculative circles. This anxiety was Increased today by the projected conference among anthracite mine leaders to consider an extensive strike against grievances. Large reduction of work ing force was said to be In progress by one of the great car-construction companies. The passing of quarterly dividends by some of the New England cotton mills kept In sight the unpromising condition In that department of Industry. A small bank failure In Wisconsin, following two other failures at different points earlier In the week, renewed the unpleasant Impression of that condition which has been dominant for several weeks. Subtreasury op erations havo yielded less to the banks than for some tlmo past, and today a payment of a Central Pacific note to tho Government for nearly $3,000,000 resulted In a credit balance for the Subtreasury at the clearing-house of over $1,700,000. The better showing for the Government revenues, which reduces the banks' immediate gains, reduces any prob ability of the withdrawal of Government de posits from the banks to replenish the Gov ernment's working balance. Currency has continued to arrive In large volume from the Interior, and again In cash of upwards of $5,000,000 Is foreshadowed by the estimates. The market closed steady, but without effective recovery. Bonds were easier. Total sales, par value, $1,655,000. United States new 4s registered advanced s per cent on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.

Today's Treasury statement shows: Available cash balance $149,071,760 Gold 44,327,627 BULGE IN WHEAT. Several Strong factors Causo Advance at Chicago. CHICAGO. July 29. Sentiment la the wheat pit was .decidedly bullish at the start, as tho result of an attempt on the part of the shorts to cover July sales. The cause of the urgent demand was a report that a largo quantity of wheat In private elevators, which shorts had expected to deliver on July contracts, had been rejected by the Inspection department. This necessitated bidding for the grain In the pit. There was little for sale, and. In con sequence, the price was forced over lc above yesterday's closing quotation. The action of the July option gave support to the distant deliveries, September opening at a gain of Uc to c at 89o to 80HC Toward the end of the first hour tho market eased somewhat, September being down to 8989c The reac tlon, however, was short-lived.' Alarm over the European political situation, allayed early In the day by a rise In English consols, was stirred up afresh by a subsequent sharp de cline In those securities. About the same time damage reports from the Southwest and North west began coming In. causing additional anxiety among shorts. A report that North west country mills can take all the new wheat offered from now on caused renewed buying. An official forecast of thunder storms Increased the bullish tone, as did also numerous advices from Kansas City, claiming a decrease In re ceipts at that point. On the bulge that fol lowed, September advanced to 00c. but part of the gain was again lost on realizing. Tho market, however, closed strong, with Septem ber at 90Ke90?ic Sfcrength of wheat was the main factor af fecting the corn market. The market closed at the highest point of the day. September closed at 494,c The feature In trading In oats was an ad vance of lr In the prtco of the July option. September closed at 33Vl33Xc Provisions took on a fair strength, owing to moderate purchases by brokers for the ac count of prominent packers. Trading, how ever, was still very quiet.
