Oct, 20. R. 3. Dun Co.'s weekly rvlw of trade tomorrow will say. Immediate requirements to replenish a pleted locks, coupled with lower prices, ar responsibl for a continued lncreas In trads activity. Th Improvement Is conservativ. but steady. , , , Weakness Is still pronounced In pig iron, with salss of from 10.00O to 18.000 tons of foundry grades reported In eastern terri tory, partly for early delivery. In plates and structural material, sharper competition Is noted, and wb.ll new business is keeping up at th expense of values, orders for rail road equipment and steel cars are stimulated by taa lowsr prices, wire products are mov ing In good volume xid several additional contracts have been placed for pipe. That th dry goods trade Is expanding steadily la shown by the Increased operations of mills and manufacturers of different dry good, specialties. Bleached cottons ar quiet, but staple print ar well under order and several line, of ginghams ar old up for Spring. Export cotton good, trad has received a setback because of tha complications in China, but Bed Sea trad holds up th business with other markets. Buyers In foot wear show a disposition to place larger contracts to cover future needs, and manufactursrs are asking advances to cover higher cost of lesther. The leather trade also display, a spirit among the buyers of willingness to operate. Hides are active and strong. EXPANSION IN THE .RETAIL TRADE. Seasonable Activity In Jobbing- and Whole sale Lines. NEW YORK, Oct, 20. Brad.treef. tomor row will say: Though trade reviews show little definite change. It is true that retail business In tha lsrgr cltie hss expended In consequencs of cooler weather and the advance of th eeaaon. Too much rain along the Atlantlo Seaboard has Impaired shipping, while low cotton price have affected Southern trade and collections. Incidentally, the oountry districts as a whole report that retail busi ness In this respect is rather slow. Rsluras as to Jobbing snd wholesale lines tell of a reasonable degrae of activity In dry goods, furniture, shoes and the Ilka, but It is claimed that Interior distributors con tinue to buy on a hand-to-mouth basis. Trade In leather holda up well, with a firm price undertone. All grades of leather ore active snd firm, with export trade a fea ture, ea- There Is more doing in holiday goods, and manufacturing confectioners are busy. Trade In finished steel Is unsatisfactory, not bo much because of a paucity of orders, but particularly because prices have again receded so low as to threaten very small profit Competition Is keen and manufac turare In the Central West have requested the railways to reduce freight rate, on raw materials, apparently preferring to sava In this direction rather than to cut wages..
