Dun's Reviewi-A moderate reduc- tion in commercial activity is to be ex- pected at this time of the year, but cop- fidence in the future is so strong that there is evident reluctance to assume seasonably quiet conditions. This atti- tude is most pronounced in the industrial world, preparations for fall and winter distribution being on tut unprecedented scale, and several leading producers an- nounce that the customary summer shut down will be entirely omitted or curtail- ed to the extent necessitated by repairs. Low temperature has retarded progress of the ereps, although no definite reduc- tion in yield is announced, except in oats and hay, but erratie fluctuations in prices result from the numerous contras dietory reports of injury, as is usual at this season. The heavy movement of merchandise is attested by an increase itt railwey earnings: thus far reported for Juno of 11.8 per cent. over tbe corres- ponding period of 1905, and foreign com- merce at this port for the last week shows a gain of $1,841,071 in exports and decrease of $671,000 in imports as compared with the movement a year ago. 7 1 SWEPT OVER NIAGARA.
