Tho sorting de- mand has dropped off, and the attention is now mainly directed toward fall trade itt which the orders have kept up very well. Values of staple goods are gener- ally well maintained. No changes are re- ported in cottons, and woollens are firm- er. Remittances are very slow. In Toronto wholesale trade is moder- ately active for this season, when the de- mand is always more or less quiet and largely confined to the future require- ments of trade. Prices of staple manu- factures are mostly steady. Wool is firm. Three cars of Canada combing and fleece were this week shipped to the United States. At Quebec, general trede during the week has been quiet. The rain dining the early part, whicb was badly needed, has been of considerable benefit to pas- turage. Few tourists have arrived, and as a result city trade IS not as active as in past seaeons. At Victoria -Vancouver there Is some noticeable improvement in wholesale trade. The demand for fall goods, as reported by aradstreees, is better in some departments. The northern trade is quiet, In Winnipeg, wbolesale trade has dia played further expansion the past week.

ARB1TR ilTION TREATY Diversity of Opinion Regarding King Edward's Latest Deal With the Emperor of Germany. Eighty Thousand Men Involved in the Chicago Butchers' Strike and Many.Branbh Industries Affected. Unless the Dispute:is Settled by Arbitration, a Prolonged Labor War May Result. London, =Tidy 18. -The announcement that an arbitration treaty between Ger- many ana Great Britain was signed yes- terday. by Foreign Minister Lensdowne and. Count Wolialieterniele the Gorman Ambassador, eoines as a complete and net altogether plasma surprise to the Englispress and public. . It was against just such an ageeenient that the Specta- tor and other powerful organs urged the Government prior to King Edward's visit to Emperor William at Kiel. By the papers which echoed that warning the news of the signing of the arbitration. treaty is swallowed either with palpable dislike or with ill -concealed disapeoint- merit. Tlie only whole-souled appreciation comes, curiously enough, from Oppose, tion papers. The Daily News,the Government's most bitter opponentewainey congratu- lates King Edward - upon his latest achievement. Tile Liberal Daily Chroni- cle and the Morning Leader follows suit, while such a staunch mouthpiece of the Government as the Daily Telegraph de- votes balf of its editorial on this subject to expression of the belief that the Anglo -German deny cannot compare in nnportance with the convention con- cluded with France. These expressions are used with much effect in the editor- ials of the Government organs, in order to offset the fear, not expressed by tbe Morning Post, thia the French public may entertain, in view of the present de- velopment, grave doubts of British sin- tciceraitt, yyin at recent Cambon-Lansdowne The Daily Telegraph, undoubtedly voic- ing official opinion here, says Bismarck's principle of "totijours en vedette" will still remain a necessary motto at Wil- helmstrasse, but it must remain the vital idea under all circumstances of our own admiralty. The Seindara, while not taking the treaty as an outcome of King Edward's, visit to Kiel, saes 'bat it is an appro- priate sequel to that meeting. With a few such sentences, the Standard. pro- ceeds to dilate on the stability and ad- vantages of the Anglo-French entenbe. The Times, somewhat strangely, makes no comment on the Anglo -German treaty. Scope of Treaty. Berlin, July 18.-T,he Anglo -German agreement signed in London yesterday, does not aply to the larger political dif- ferences tbat may arise, but is confined to legal questions, like the interpretation of treaties. It is substantially identical with the arbitration arrangements which Great Britain has made with other coun- tries. The present agreement is not the outgrowth of politicalfestivities. Negotiations on the subject liave been in progress for some time. The Chicago Strike. Chicago, July 18, -7 -With no sign of weakening on either side, the only ray of hope in the butchers' strike situetion to -day was lee possibility that arbitra- tion may intervene to -resent it, labor. war freught with suffering and privetion to the strikers and heavy loss to the packers. Nor is the effect of the strike confined to the employees and packers, nor to the nine cities. where the fight will be contested. The consuming public will bear a large glare of the burden in higher prices for meets. Reports slready have come from various cies that prices tlie product have been raised. This elvance was said to be but it forerunner of others if the conflict continued long. En additiou to the 50,000 employees al- readyen strike, upwards of 00,000 more i ere nvolved indirectly, and most of them probably will be made idle before to -nights In addition to the tying up sf the slaughtering departments of all the plants, the strike affeots branch in- lustries, in Avid& such articles as but- terine, soaps, buttens, combs, are Italie actured.

The Meat Situation. Chicago, July 18. -The first step to- ward peace between the seven big pack- ing comeaanes and. their 50,000 striking employees waseeken to-uay, when Presi- dent Michael Donnelly, of the Amalgam- uted Meat Cutters' and Butchers' Union of aorth Americe, held a conference wit& representatives -of the packipg, -houses in which the strike was celled, These are inderetions that the conference will open the way for it settlement of the strike.

It is understood that in the conference to -day the union leaders will insist that all strikers be reinstated. • Another point on width the labor men will lay great stress will be Wet a wage scale for each class of workers in the packing plants be agreed on. This brings up one of the original aifferences. The packers have maintained that tiny contract made. should not include the unskilled work- ers.
