REVIEW OF TRADE.
Great Increase in Pig Iron Pro-
duction.

New YORK, July 17.-[Speciall- R. G.
Dunn & Cos. weekly review of trade
will say: There is a remarkable in
crease in the prod uction of pig iron
almost to the unprecented figures of last
year. The sudden increase i'll produc-
tion is not in all respects favorable
symptom. No corresponding improve
ment in the demand for the manufac.
tured products is yet seen. At North
western points excellent crop pros
poets arc promising.
AT Nashville trade is fair. but dull at
Memphis, unsatisfactory at Little Rock,
falling off at Savannah, and sluggish at
New Orleans, though better demand
is seen for cotton. At Jacksonville
trade is better with crops in good con.
dition.
The collapse in wheat speculation
has come with n fall of cents during
the past week, but corn is scarce and
3T higher while oats have declined
about /. Pork and hog products are
higher. Coffee has risen q and oil tho
same, but cotton is unchanged and the
general course Of prices has been down
ward which is natural at this season,
the fall during tho past week having
averaged nearly y of per cent.
The business failures during the last
seven days, as reported to the mercan-
tile agency by telegraph, number for
the United States PA, and for Canada
80, total of PA as compared with IL
total of PIT last week, and a37 tho week
previous to the last. For the CORES
ponding week of last year the figures
were :o7, representing 1S7 failures in
the United States and twenty in the
Dominion of Canada.

They are original and regard you
between the brows with unabashed

brother. They are instructed, too, in
the folly and vanity of the male
mind, for they have associated with
''the boys from babyhood and can
disCerningly minister to both vices or
pleasantly snub the possessor. They
possess, moreover, life among them

The Fashion.

Unless all signs fail and the back of
winter is suddenly broken, it will be
many weeks yet before the big winter
wraps and furs can safely be retired
from duty, and those who are the for
tunate owners OF seal and sable, or of
rich furlined cloaks will cling to them
as long as possible from sheer de-
fight in their luxurious comfort. But
in this uncertain climate of ours, even
few mild, lovely days are just as
tantalizing for taste of the fIowery
gemmed spring and it is q great pleas
Hreto feminine humanity to slip into
ones natty spring coat even for few
hours only. In this full bet ween the
winter and Easter gayeties, there are
various afternoon teas and receptions,
at which it is allowable to air ones
spring gown or new outside garment,
so it does not seem premature to
give our readers an idea OF the 1891
