Itew York, Oct 10.--With recognition of the unfavorable features which still prevail, the fact is nevertheless clear that business is reviving gradually. Some of the current improvement is seasonal, a sudden turn to lower temperature quickening retail trading, but gains also appear which plainly are not dbe to weather influences, movements in basic industries are especially Important because of their direct and Indirect bearing on different lines, and a further recovery in iron and steel and lumber, among other branches, serves to strengthen sentiment. The Pacific Northwest reports i^n enlarging demand for lumber from the East, while the iron, and steel output at leading centers is rising above the point of extreme depression of last summer. Such phases as these do not measure fully the scope of the economic recuperation, but are representative of the constructive changes that are in progress, and tend to modify the unsatisfactory aspects which continue at present. Of the latter, conditions of unemployment remain conspicuous, and exert a very decided effect on distribution of goods influential in curtailing the retail turnover. The disposition in an Increasing number of instances, however, is to place moderate-sized commitments more frequently, the depleted stocks of merchandise being p, fiictor in this condition. In somesections, as In the South, where materially higher cotton prtces have stimulated renewed confidence, there Is more willingness to anticipate future requirements.
