Contradictory Charges Noted In Trade
The Failures During the Month.

Contradictory Charges Noted In Trade
The Failures During the Month.
NEW YORK, Dec. 15.--R. q. Dun &
| Co. s Weekly Review of Trade says:
''Duns Review is enabled, by the kindness
of several thousand manufacturers who have
forwarded statements of their pay-rolls for
November this year ! in 1853 and in 1892. to
make very encouraging comparison
of earnings for that month, which
shows an increase in total payments
of Is 2 per cent. over last year. but a deere Sc
OF 1873 per cent in comparison with 1892. The
accompanying statement OF hands employed
shows tn It in the establishments l02 per cent.
more persons were employed than year ago,
but SO per cent. less than in 1892. The average
earnings for over .G0 COO hands is per cent.
larger than in 1858, but is l4h per cent. less
than in 1892 and this statement takes no ac-
count of hours of work in the months compared
or Of the establishments not working at all
this year In some of the industries more
hands are at work than in 1892, but in others
the decrease is large.
Contradictory changes in business are quite
in order at this season. Neither the larger Or
derS in some branches. nor the depression OF
prices in Others afforded a safe indication of
the general movement. But the working force
does not lessen more than usual for the time
of year, the demand for'goods does not seem TO
diminish, though in most departments it is
considerably below the capacity OF works in
operation and the volume OF business trans
acted Is little larger in comparison with last
year than in November.
THE failures during the month have been
Swe1led by many mlSfortuneS at the south, APP
parently due to the extreme depression in cot
ton, SO that the liabilities for the first week of
December amounted 10 $4,036 S66 OF
which $l,427,415 were OF manufactur-
ing and $24)1.451 OF trading con-
Germs, the aggregate for the corresponding
week last year being $476l.40O For the month
of November the comp etc statement Of Ia
bilitIeS covers Ill .094,3O6, of which $50 500
we're of manufacturing and s., GS0,050 were OF
trading concerns. The failures for the past
week have been $40 in the United States,
against 9 List year, and % in Canada, against
40 last year"
Bradstreet's says:
"All larger eastern centers except Pitts
burgh and Buffalo report trade quiet or dull.
Throughout the northwest, including Letrot,
Chicago. Milwaukee, Mime poliS. st. Paul
and ulu:h, the volume OF business has, with
occasional exceptions, been smaller than usual,
due to unSe <on4ble weather. Cities through
out the central west and further west report a
moderate volume OF trade with no prospect Of
improvement this month. Restriction has
Leen noticed in distribution OF clothing, shoes
rubber goods, pig iron and light hardware.
General trade south is very quiet, except for
Christmas Specalties On the Pacific coast
general business is rather better than previ- !
OuSly."
