New YoRK, December 9s.-R. G.
Dun Il Co.'S weekly review OF trade VIII
say:
Commercial failures In 1894 already
reported number 1892 against 1852
last year with liabilities Of Sl63,2Ss, 4o4
against s346, 80, $50 last year Next
week the ina report for 1894 will prob
ably Include about 400 mora failures
With liabilities Of about 81, 600, 600.
From these accounts, banks, bankers,
financial and transportation companies
are excluded. Manufacturing fall
ures already number 2,Io6
against 3.422 last year, but La
bilities are only S64, 49l,2S7 against
SIG $50, O01 last year. Tha trading
failures already number 1874 against

year. The statement by sections snow
= decrease OF tWo-thirds 10 defauited
liabilities in the middle and central
northern States, ons-half 10 the west
and southwest, and third in other sec
tions. Holiday trade has met expecta-
tious. Purchases have been numerous,
but smaller than usual 10 amount aud
more confined % needful articles, thus
anticipating ordinary trade.
Wheat has declined One-half a cent,
though western receipts nave been only
7,l12, O9s bushels.
Sales of wool this month have been
L. SOC. 500 pounds, against 13,O49. 1877
pounds last year and 20,302, 800 pounds
in 1892, and Ohio M has sold Tor II
cents.
The market for iron and steel is wait
ing, but the reduction In wages at the
Edgar Thomson works, averaging 10
per cent, plainly Indicates that the
same difficulty which is seen in othep
quarters, that the demand in couSump-
zion does not answer TO the increase In
production OF pig iron. The shipment
of rails for eleven months are reckOned
al only ZOO 600 tons, OF which only 2OO,-
600 tons were for new roads. Numerous
projects for steel buildings are under
consideration, but no important con-
tracts are reported.
It gives some encOuragement that the
Bethlehem works have SECURED con-
tract to make armOr plate for Russia,
but the order for cast pipe for japan is
still in doubt Prices have scarcely
changed during the week, though Bes-
semer pig aud billets are, II anything,
shade weaker. There is larger demand
in nails, but In hardware, machinery,
engines aud railwEy stocks and mate
rails the business Is much depressed.
