REVIEW OF TRADE
Commercial Agencies State There
Is No Reaction.
ARE VERY FEW NEW ORDERS
Products Are Lower. without Disturb

CIearauces.

New York. Nov. 22.-R. G. Dun &
Company's Weekly Review of Trade to-
morrow will say:
Reaction in business, there is none.
Efforts to explain II or to attribute 1t
to this or that temporary influence are
all wasted. In every business men
now perceive the fact that the pur-
chases in advance of current distribu-
ton which were made when the prices
were booming, involved of necessity, a
season of hating when the rises stop
ped and until the actual demand for
consumption has been measurtd.
Products are lower without disturb
ance or sign OF manic. The more sober
estimates of wheat. months ago, rose
100000 900 or more above the government
and speculative guesses. and now a re-
putable estimate of 475.000.000 bushels
excites little remark.
THE opening of clay worsteds by two
leading mills at advanced prices has
not yet been followed by others, and 1t
is doubted whether foreign prices after
the London wool sales next week will
be helpful
Iron and steel products are lower
averaging l per cent for the week and
7 per cent from the highest. Bessemer
anthracite No. 1 and bar are quoted
lower. while the sales below quotations
are frequent. There is competition for
orders, most works having little ahead
and new business is remarkably small
Structural work is cut down by the
strike of house workers here, and quite
number of mills, principally bar, have
stopped within few days. The associ-
atoms reaffirm prices. but do not sell
enough to keep the works busy"
