LOCAL FIELD OF COMMERCE
Dun & Co.'s Report OF Local
Trade Conditions
BUILDING MATERIAL BRISK
But In Other Lines Business Is
Rather Dull
There Is No Change in the Condition
Of the OIL narket Except
Stiffened Prices
BUILDING MATERIAL BRISK

r. W. Burnham. manager for Dun d
Co., furnishes the following review OF To-
cal trade conditions:
There was little of interest uncovered
during the past week in local business.
No marked improvement in trade is
noticed. 1t is spasmodic in most lines,
with the exception of house furnishing
and hardwar in which dealers report
business exceedingly brisk and steady.
Collections are not satisfactory. A
number of small failures are reported in
the city in the grocery line, due to indis-
riminate creditiny and jobbers not de-
manding weekly payment from small
customers.
In the boot and shoe line business is
overdone. The amount OF transactions
woulu probably total up good average,
but so distributed that trade seems very
quiet.
The oil situation has not changed ma
terially. Increased inquiry at the wells
and more confident feeling have stiff
fened prices, but we cannot learn that the
Standard company has done more than
voice its intentions through Mr.. Harvey.
There have been three failures in the
past week, all in the city. Liabilities,
$1,000; assets, $780,

They Anticipate No Settlement by the
Chinese Commission.
SAN Francisco, Jan. 23.-The follow
ing advices have been received here by
the steamer Peru, from Toxic: The
only change in the diplomatic situation
since last advices Is the announcement
that Chan Yang Hwan, China's ac
credited general, is actually on his way
to Japan, accompanied by a subordinate
representative named Shao Yu Lien
The senior messenger is believed TO be
well chosen, on account of his expert
ence with western nations. which has
undoubtedly relieved him of some OF
the overwhelming conceit of which the
majority of housekeeping Chinese art
steeped He has been minister to the
United States, Spain and Peru. and
may be supposed to fairly understand
the responsibilities of his new position
No amount of official reserve on the
part of the Japanese authorities can con
ceal that they expect very little from
the first meeting. The fact that Mr.
Foster will accompany the Chinese en-
vOys in the capacity of a legal adviser
does not change the opinion of the Jap
anese with respect to the sincerity OF
