NEW YORK, December 21.-R. g. Dun
& Co.'S weekly review Of trade, which
will be issued Saturday, will say:
But for the large exports of gold and
uncertainty about the financial lsgisla-
tion, the indications would be more en-
cOuraging. Some increase is seen In
orders given to manufacturing works,
though until the year ends the force
actually az work naturally diminishes.
The holiday trade has been rather poor
AZ most points, partly owing TO mild
weather. There is distinctly more con-
fdence shown about the future demand
for Industrial products, though
prices are not better. Domes'
tle exports increase a little,
though exportabis staples are not
better 10 price. In November the eX-
cess Of merchandise exports over I'm
ports was S27, 1913, SCI, besides S2,931,-
: OBJ. Novembe and December returns
indicate as large an excess. For the
reason that exports OF S., 339,071 in gold
since last Friday, and the withdrawal
Of about three times as much gold from
the treasury are The more noticed.
Money continues 20 accumulate here,
and there Is no enlargement in the le-
gitimate demand for commercial loans,
though some offerings Of paper, appar-
emily to prepare for yearly settlements,
have excited remark.
Prices Of agricultural products do not
Improve. Wheat is unchanged for the
week, although Western receipts have
fallen to 1904, OPS bushels, against
b,594, $40 for the same week last year,
aud it does not count for much that the
Atlantic exports were 936, 645 against
f44,547 last year. The visible supply
btlll grows, and II IS now So, l73, 900
bushels. Corn fell four cents for the
week, though Western receipts were
only 1.522. CSC bushels, against 3, $50, 204
last year, and Atlantic exports more
Than a third smaller. Government eS-
inmates do not seem to affect actual
transactions.
Larger orders for manufactured pro-
ducts have appeared and yet, except In
boots and shoes, the general tendency
OF prices are downward. Steel billetS
sell az SIS at Pittsburg and Besssmer
pig az SO. so at Valley mills, and In other
products the tone is on the whole
weaker, except that structural beams
hold the recent small advance. Yet
quite large transactions are reported In
pig iron and OllletS, and improved de-
mand for barred nails, while nothing is
doing in rails and business in
sheets and plates is light. Competition
between the works which is not enough
90 keep them employed, push prices In
many lines below the ordinary cost Of
production.
Copper is strong. Lead has sold
largely at 81 cents and tin has been
depressed &c by speculation.
The failures for the week past have
been $40 in the United States against
s44 last year and 80 in Canada, against
81 last year.

The End Is Not Yet.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The tariff
couferees struck another snag just
when thci, deliberations seemed to
be moving along to peaceful end.
The Louisiana senators are in open
revolt. They not only rebel against
the proposed compromise sugar sched-
ule. but they demand d continuation
of the bounty Toy the current year.
This demand is out OF the question,
in the opinion of all the Democrats.
Other Democratic senators who have
been contending all along for
adequate protection for sugar openly
declare that there can be no bounty
concessions. The Democrats of the
house with one voice, except three
Louisiana members, avow that there
must be no bounty in any shape or
for any period. When the Demo-
cratic conferoes adjourned Saturday
night after an all-day session it looked
as though they were nearer to an
agreement than at any time thus far.
And yet the agreement itself, which
is The great end IN view, had not
been attained. The hopes of
the conferees that the re-
suits would be reached fail
ed to materialize. An agreement
on sugar had not been reached beyond
the possibility of recall, nor had
agreements been reached on iron ore
or coal. The day closed, however,
much better than it opened. 1t had
brought out that the new sugar sched-
ule submitted as an ultimatum by the
conservative senators would be ac-
cepteG by the house conferees.
The Progress. (Shreveport, La.) 1892-1900, 1894-08-11

lievs they have, at all events. They
still maintain studied reticenco as to
actual details, but it was stated
authoritatively yesterday that they
expected to report next Monday. For
time it was thought She report
would be ready by to-day, but later it
was decided to defer it until Monday.
From the best information obtainable
coal and iron ore are to remain prac-
tically as in the senate bill. The sugar
schedule has cost the conferees more
labor and trouble than all the other
features. There was determined Cp-
position among the house Democrats
to the senate sugar schedule. Demo
cratic members who must now face
their constituents with the request
for denomination and reelection
declared they could not do SO
with any hope OF success. if they
consented to plain, undisputed con-
cesslOn to the sugar trust. Discus
sion of this trust in connection with
tariff Legislation has rendered this
octopus extremely odious, so the
house members say. Some of the
Democrats assert candidly that the
hostility to the trust among their
constituents is so violent that they will
incur certain public condemnation If
they vote any protection to the mo-
nopoly, These same members say
they are Indifferent as to the coal and
iron ore. The conierees have been
laboring to devise a system of duty
upon sugar which would yield the
proper revenue ard accord the pro-
ducers the protection they insist is
absolutely essential to them, and at
the same time give the trust no bene-
fit. Several reports of the figures
discussed have besA circulated, but
none OF the confer:es have given out
the facts. 1t appears that the idea of
the conferees is to split the difference
rs to the protection to refined sugar,
making 1t as low IS possible.

Bankruptcy Amendments.

WASHINGTON. Aug. S.-Yesterday
Senator George offered additional
amendments to the uniform bank
ruptcy bill as it passed the house.
Preference to debts due to servants
and laborers is limited to those for
labor done within year. These debts
due to any person arising from the
debtors dealings with the person
while minor as executor of guardian
are expected from the preference.
Provision is made for auditors to be
appointed by courts for carrying out
the business entrusted to them under
the act, and their powers and duties
are designated. Oaths may be ad-
ministered under authorized state
officers. Dockets must be kept with
records of cases.

No Solution So Far.

WASHINGTON, Aug. "a caucus of
the house Democrats has been called
for ) o'clock to-day. 1t is believed
that the house Democrats will by an
overwhelming vote agree to take the
senate bill with free sugar in it, Nine
out of every ten of the house Demo-
Gratis want free sugar. The senate
would vote for free sugar, but the
Republicans might make a combine
with the Louisiana senators to put the
bounty On. The Democratic leaders
have evidently thought Of this phase
of the question. They say that
with the house agreeing to the same
the senate will vote for free sugar in
preference to a bounty. The house
Democrats in large numbers are will
ing to settle the controversy on the
basis OF free sugar. Some of the
Democratic leaders have abandoned
hope Of any agreement through the
conference. They say the quickest
way to settle it all is for the senate
and house to resume control of the
tariff question and discharge the con-
ferees; that then the senate will
adopt free sugar and the Democrats
OF the house will accept that
as solution of the controversy.
Many of the house Democrats are
openly censuring Chairman Wilson for
rejecting half dozen propositions
looking to agreement or disagreement
by the senate conferees. The indig-
nation against Wilson is increasing by
a report that he will not again be
candidate for congress; that he is to
be given some important position
which would enable him to obtain
needed rest. In their Impotence to
60 home the Democrats of the house
are ready 20 accept almost any fair
and honorable settlement of the ques-
ton.
