ACTIVITY IS WIDESPREAD. Volume and Value Testify to Prevailing Prosperous Condition. Bradstrcot's says: Trado activity ia widespread, all volume and value testi fying to prevailing prosperous condi tions. Only good reports aro received from distributive trado centers, and some markets report fall domand aa holding out longor than expected. Railway earnings, bank clearings, re turns and quotations of staplo prices are all encouraging, pointing aa they do to a maximum volumo of business for this period of tho year. Crop re turns for October bear our earlier im pressions of shortened yields of most leading agricultural products. Expec tation of more moderate yields of lead ing cereals Is not confined to this coun try; tho world's wheat crop will admit tedly bo smaller, and rye, barley and oats yields aro not expected to bo so large, as a year ago. The higher range of prices of all staples, and particularly of agricultural products, will furnish a profltablo balance of producers. Tho liberality of foreign demand is, perhaps, best known in tho September report of exports of leading products. Shipment of bread stuffs are aa large aa those of August, and thero waa natur ally a heavy gain In cotton exports, which are doubled those of tho same month a year ago. Totals of leading exports show an increaso of 23 per cent over September, 1890, but a decrease of 8.5 per cent from September 1897, which witnessed very heavy shipments of breadstuff's. Wheat, including flour, shipments for tho week aggregato 5,205,034 bush els, against 5,183,398 bushels last week, 4,729,090 bushels in the corre sponding week of 1898, 5,549,720 bush els in 1897, 4,150,817 bushels in 1890, and 2,409,440 bushels in 1895.
