right to know how public servants

State of Trade.

New YORK. Jan. -Bradstreet's
says in its commercial summary:
Special kilograms show a decrease in
the volume of general trade, though
no more than is to be expected at this
time of the year. The week is short
one, and following the rush in the
holiday trade it shows a smaller vol
ume of goods distributed. The at
tenlion of traders is largely occupied
in stock taking, in addition to which
very mild, wet and unreasonable
weather has added unfavorable iuflu-
ence. Country roads west, north.

cult of passage in consequence, and
the volume ofinteriOr retail rattle has
been decreased. Advices from Chi

ton, Evansville, Topeka and Cleve.
land indicate this. AT Minneapolis,
81. Paul and Duluth business is less
active, and from various points in the
South no special activity is reported.
1t remains to be said that throughout
the West the movement OF merchant
disc is more satisfactory than it was
one year ago, and leading traders in
wholesale lines continue confident
that the new year will bring n fair
amount of business. At Chicago the
opinion in banking circles is that the
years business in that city Is heavier
than in 1884.
At eastern distributing points the
various staple markets are quiet.
There has been slight gain Ia the
movement of dry goods from COM
mission houses. and jDbbers look for
increased trade in the near future.
Wooden fabrics are firm and cotton
goods are steady ut revised prices.
Print cloths are weak and declining
again, but sales for future delivery
are reported to amount to 1870 900
pieces, against 3O0,000 pieces at the
corresponding period of last year.
There is tendency to greater firm.
ness for wool, owing to better in
quiry and finer fleeces. There has
been no activity in the cotton mar
ket. and spots are off one sixteenth.
The wheat market has been alter

dency continues downward. Aspecial
dispatch from Minneapolis states that
quick turns in the wheat market
there after tomorrow are likely.
