Trade Fairly Active With No Great
Changes.


Changes.
New YORK, June 1s.-R. G. Dun e
Co. S weekly review of trade:
Trade is fairly active at Boston and
the shoe trade excellent, though orders
are checked by western floods. Leather
is very firm. Rubber shoes are steady
with orders for weeks ahead: rubber is
firm and active and sales of wool are
100000 pounds with encouraging
prospects.
The trade in paints and glass is salts
factory in Philadelphia; in tobacco
slightly improved; in liquors and chem
icals steady, and in oils and jewelry
quiet, while sales of wool are more free,
the market being firm. Hot weather
checks retail trade at Baltimore.
At Pittsburgh the demand for finished
iron is good, the prospect of wage diff
culties stimulating. Hardware is very
active and glass unchanged.
At Detroit trade equals last years
with wool sales below last years prices
and crop prospects good. At Chicago
the volume of business IS increasing in
all lines, and receipts of oats show
some increase over last year, of cured
meats one-siXth. of hogs and cattle one
fifth. of -four and rye two-thirds, while
of dressed beef receipts are double, of
lard three times and of barley four
times last years. a decrease Of one
third is seen in wheat and wool and
some decrease in hides, cheese and but
ter.
At st. Louis business is reasonably
good and at Kansas City fairly salts
factory with large receipts.
