The Commerce Department said orders fell a seasonally adjusted 0.4 percent to $118.9 billion last month. In advance, economists were looking for orders to increase by about that percentage. It was the first triple drop in orders for durable goods such as cars and computers since January-Marc- h 1991, during the depths of the recession, and it was the fourth decline in five months. Orders also fell 0.4 percent in August after plunging 2.7 percent in July. Meanwhile, the department said Americans' income jumped 0.7 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $5.08 trillion in September, the biggest rise since December. Consumer spending also rose 0.7 percent to $4.12 trillion, the largest increase since January. Both gains, which were somewhat stronger than expected, followed drops of 0.2 percent in August, which were caused by the Andrew's destruction of crops and property in Florida and Louisiana and the disruption of business afterward.
