Canada is also an Im portant customer, though, the number of' palm which she takes from the United States is iess than that taken by Mexico, and but about one half the number taken by Cuba. Prices of boots and shoes sent to the tropics are apparently considerably lower than those sent to the countries of the temperate gone, the average export price of those sent to Cuba, for example.

December Th most satis factory pews that has to the steel trade since the announcement of the result of the general election a month ago appeared In the form of a statement which, though not officially made, la accepted aa well founded In quarters well tnfrormed on developments In steel, that the United States Steel Corporation and the Pennsylvania Railroad Company had come to a final arid positive agreement aa to quality and prices for steel rail a For more than a year these two Interests have been In con- 85 troveray, and as a consequence not only the 143 I rail orders ot the Pennsylvania but those its' I of a great many other systems have be I Via 1.4 Tin T-V 1- i anects not oniy xne Dusiness 01 tne renn-' sylvanla but that of a e-reat nun other 40 I railroads which have stood with the Penn- 64 sylvanla during Its contentions. 49 181 It would also tend to confirm the reports received from Pittsburg yesterday to the effect that the final closing of some large railroad orders was Imminent. The disagreement between the Pennsyl vania and the big steel company has been over the price. The new rails specified by the Pennsylvania is a higher cost rail than the one formerly specified, but the Pennsylvania has demanded that it be made at the old price of 328, while the steel company nas salted for an advance. Both parties made concessions In the settlement, the steel company agreeing tovjnake the rails at $28 a ton on condition that the buyer also take the "seconds" at the same price.

The conditions named In the new specifica tions sre such that the terms of the agreement practically provide a concession In the price of rails. It is expected that the Pennsylvania will shortly order upwards of 150,000 tons of rails for next year and that early orders from other railroads will make up an aggre gate or siz.ooo.ooo of new business tn rails Business in structural steel continues fair and negotiations for the 60,000 tons'of steel to go Into the Equitable Life Building here nave Deen tentatively undertaken. SOUS ACTIVITY IN IRON. There is some business a-oine- forward in the Eastern Iron market, and recent transactions averaging' an aggregate of about 3,000 tons a day. Present inquiries seem to call for about 20,000 tons of foundry irons and 20.0i Rl tons of basic iron.

The Interest in heavy steel melting scrap continues, and consumers are obliged to pay more for that material than for basic iron, which tends to help the pig metal market. Accumulation of old material In the hands of dealers in all sections Is estimated at 400,000 tons to 500.000 tons. This would quifkly disappear with any sharp revival in steel business. The periodical rumor that Marshall Field A of Chicago, will establish a large commission house In New York is circu lating In the dry goods district. The firm now has a branch ornoe here, but that Is connected with its present wholesale and retail trade.

The American Association of Woolen and Worsted Manufacturers at its annual meet ing voted heavtly in favor of the complete abolition of the selling sample allowance privilege heretofore granted the Jobber. resolution to discourage the pirating of styles was also adopted. The trade In woolens and worsteds is -more or less affected by the agitation in favor of a re vision ot the tariff schedule, but cotton goods rjfle steady to firm. The further ad vance in 28-Inch standard print cloths to 3 7-lUc for delivery during the first quarter! of next year has not brought out as many offerings as were hoped for, and not a few manufacturers are asking a price of Bar silver reacted slightly again to-day. and a prominent mining authority figures that in the event of the sliver price getting down a little further many mines now op erating will suspend, as have many of the low-grade ore properties already.

Commercial payments are gradually improving. watar supply retards worst at woolen and pulp mills In New England, ovens at Cotv-nellsville and various ether Industrial plants, while lake navigation la about closed for the season. Dry goods market conditions are more quiet, although there is' Ho evidence of weakness In some linear There Is the usual lull that appears in December, while In other departments the; position of the raw material Is a disturbing factor. It la also. noted that there la lass complaint of dif ficulty experienced in securing deliveries as desired.

There Is steady demand for cotton goods from buyers who have refused to operate beyond Immediate needs. Ex port business Is still handicapped bv the depression In the silver market. Shipments of shirting prints to Manila are recorded, and Red Sea buyers ssake bids below the market, which attracts little Inislness. Im provement continues in the demand for wools, although orders are unevenly dis tributed. The market has advanced suf ficiently to render It certain that most reorders will command higher prices than original contracts.

Strength in the domestic hide market la fully sustained. Consumption of leather la not on a more liberal scale, although sales are only fair because all large buyers covered their requirements for the half year before tha last advance. Footwear sales men report lmoroved conditions smong Jobbers and retailers, and the producers re ceive substantial orders, heavy goods wholesalers placing contracts in anticipation of an advance In prices proportioned to the rise In materials. OCTOBER Reflect Heavy Increase of Business Through tha Banks. Bank clearings for November reflect a large Increase In the volume of payments through the banks, not only at New York City, where stock market operations, were very heavy, adding materially to the volume of bank settlements there, but at many of the leading cities In all sections of the country total bank exchangee for the month this year at all cities reporting In the tilted States, embracing more than 100 of the leading cities, according to the monthly statement of R.

G. Dun being 908,188.633. against $9,660,418,839 In Novem ber last year, when financial operations were greatly disturbed, and $13,670,407,705 In the corresponding month of 1008. The comparison with last year serves chiefly to emphasize the depression existing then. One less business day In the month this year (there being fissJ3undays) affects the comparison unfavorably; average daily figures for the month, $503.834,0110, compare with for November, a period of normal trade The noteworthy Improvement Is in the West, Chicago, Milwaukee, St.

Paul, Louis. Kansaa City and many other centers showing gains over 1906. A small Increase appears at some leading cities in New Englsnd. Exchanges at New York City- ar -psaeticaUly the same as in November, 1908. though speculative dealings in stocks were fully 50 per cent greater this year.

There is a considerable decrease at Philadelphia. Pittsburg snd some other important iron centers. Balti more, New Orleans and other leading cities In the South report considerable losses: also San Francisco and other Pacific coast points. The improvement since the early months of the year ta shown tn the state mentof average dally bank exchanges st all cities in the United States given below. Under normal conditions the volume of bank clearings reaches the low point of the year In August and the highest averages are In the late fall, the winter and spring months.

The loss this year averaged fully 20 per cent until midsummer; the Novem ber figures are well above all preceding months this year. Comparison la made be low of bank exchanges by years; also the average dally figures for November and the 10 preceding months: November. Iftoft. 1907. Pet.

Collections have shared In the irregularity In trade, and there is noticeable more complaint as to those than as to business gen erally, more particularly at the South.

Heavy wearing apparel, shoes and coal have been helped by climatic developments. Holiday trade, too, shows signs of expan sion, and comparisons with a year ago in all lines are naturally in favor of current business. In some lines of wholesale trade there are evidences of more "quiet condi tions. Thus, in raw wool, leather and somaj lines of cotton and Iron and steel there is rather less doing, partly because of business recently booked and partly because of a desire to see what the next, month or so will bring forth, and also because of recent advances in many prices. Manr early spring trade wants have, tn fact, been and there Is still some conservative conservatism as to buying ahead, more particularly as the tariff situation is still a subject of Congressianal inquiry.
