New York, March 9.-R. G.. Dun q
Co.'S weekly Review Of Trade says
The one unwholesome factor Is that
prices OF commodities are moving up
ward rather rapidly. the average hav-
ing risen more than 10 per cent during
the last week and the exports Of mer'
chandise are thus liable to be restricted.
Reports OF trade from all parts OF the
country show little change since last
week though there is perhaps u little
less activity on the whole. The south
feels the continued drain in cotton but
the trade in that section is moderately
fair. Business at st. Louis is only fair
and rather quiet at Kansas City. sAt
Denver business is fair; at st. Paul
good conditions continue, and at Milwau-
kce and Cincinnati trade is rather
quiet. Trade in the ONO valley is
coed. Chicago reports am eXtraordi-
nary decrease in dressed beef receipts
and a heavy fall in receipts of grain.
lard and hides, hut large gain in cured
meats.
Wooden dry goods sales are above
last years, with collections easy. Trade
is generally good at this season, hut
better in materials than manufactured
products.
The only speculative market that has
declined during the week is the cotton
market, but wheat has risen over cent,
oats I cents and corn nearly , cents,
coffee an eighth, oil p cents, butter >
cents and pork products shade lower.
| Thus far this week wheat products are
not half what they were last year, -four
exports not One-half and corn exports
mot any.
II is not a good sign when the specu-
lative interests are active and bu0yant.
while legitimate trade and productive
industry are hesitating or curtailed.
| In the iron industry general consump-
tion has generally declined. apparently
not far from One-lifth.
The woo:en industry Is In far better
condition, the output OF knitting and
worsted dress goods, and the medium
and lower grades Of mems clothing be-
ing larger than at any other time for
/ five years. But the more costly grades
Of cloth are not yet in strong demand.
Cotton manufacture is not favored by
the demand for many grades of cloth,
but the boot and shoe manufacture is
doing little better OF late, though en-
barrassed by unsatisfactory prices.
The treasury has put out silver notes
including only $500, 900 more currenCr
than 1t has taken in d,xiaS the - |,
week. The money markets are gen.sr-
ally well supplied for Legitimate hNlsi-
ness needs, II ough at sorae points strin-
gent or more active. The reports as ia
collections are a little less satisfactory
and ger II is the prevailing impression
that busincsS.n all parts OF the country
has solid footing and will prosper
when good crops come. The exports o
productsfrom New York were larger last
week, but for the past month show de
| crease Of about ) per cent and the i'm
ports show marked increase.
The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the pas
seven days number 26j, as compared
with a total Of 29O last week. For th'
corresponding week OF last year Tn
/ figures were 260.

sea shore letter, some information In the
stocking mendlng line was astonishing.
Tie conversation turned upon the really
disgraoeiul way Ia which the fingers Of
silk gloves and the toes Of silk stockings
wear out nowadays. There were three
young ladies away from home without
maids. They were asked how they
managed. Miss No for answer pulled
on her slipper and showed her advanced
views Of darning. There had been good
sized round hole. She had taken needle
