Ii IS not necessary TO parcularize what IL was

puN's REVIEW OF TRADE.
A Season of Hating Caused by Too Much
Buying During the Boom.


NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-R G.. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade, issued
to-day, says: Reaction in business,
there is none Efforts TO explain it or
to attribute it to this or that temporary
influence are all wasted, In every
business, men now perceive the fact
that the purchases in advance OF cur
rent distribution, which were made
when prices were booming, involved of
necessity season of halting when the
rise stopped, and until the actual de
mand for consumption has been meas
ured.
Products are lower, without disturb
ance or sign of panic. The more sober
estimates of wheat months ago rose 90.
900, 900 or more above the government
and speculative guesses, and now re
putable estimate of 475, 600, 900 bushels
excites little remark. Western receipts
are 23,4l5,S74 bushels in three weeks
against l2,3l4, ga last year, are so per
sistent that prices have again declined
about one cent, and Atlantic exports
flour included, are slightly less than G
year ago for three weeks I, 1873, 745 bush
els against 4,SlS,2l4 last year. Corn
declines one.half cent further. PORK
products also have reason for weaken
Ing, lard 10 cents per 100 pounds an(
pork 81 cents per barrel.
Iron and steel products are lower
averaging per cent for the week anc
per cent from the highest. Bessemer
anthracite No. and bar are quoted
lower, while sales below quotations ar
frequent There is competition TO
orders, most works having little ahea.
aud new business is remarkably small
Structural work is cut down by tn
strike of houseworkers here and quit
number of mills, principally bar
have stopped within few days. Th
associations reaftirm prices, but do no
sell enough to keep works busy.
For the past week failures have bee
800 in the United States against 81
last year, and AZ in Canada, against .
