BRADsTREET,s REGULAR REpoRr.

NEW YORK. Feb. 15.-Bradstreet's tomorrow
will say:
The milder and pleasanter weather following the
severe storms and extremely low temperature have
with few exceptions failed to stimulate orders for
seasonabe goods or the distributive movement
generally.
January gross earnings of railways indicate the
bottom has been touched, but there are signs of
Improvement accompanying them Returns from
1873 American and Mexican railway cornpanies IN
Bradstreets cover 102 900 miles of track and 1885,
$4,000 OF gross earnings in January, falling off
OF $40 of l per cent from January OF last gear,
in which month there was decrease of IL per cent
from the total in January, 1898.
The decrease in January earnings of railroads in
the United States alone is sx-tenths of per cent.
The poorest showing is made by the grangers,
but decreases from January earnings year ago by
Eastern, southern and Pacific groups of roads are
shown. Central western roads, coalers and South
western announce gains in January last
year. The significant features that more than
Gne-haIf OF the companies report gains for
January this year over last year, but these are
small and are Offset by few heavy decreases.
Prlces on the whole have maintained position
of relative steadiness. Eastern manufacturers of
shoes are asking higher prices in view of late
advance IN leather, and spruce lumber for frames
has been marked up about 20 per cent. Live cattle
and hogs are higher due to improvement in East
ern damand and decline in receipts at Western
centers. Corn is up slightly, and lead is also
higher Prices are unchanged for oats pork, cot
ton, iron and steelg but beached cottons have sold
lower-at some points the lowest record.
Wheat is also OF on additional evidence of heav-
Ter supplies, both home and abroad than antici-
pated:7 Copper, raw sugar and lard also lower.
The only noteworthy gains of volume of sales of
staple merchandise at large Eastern centers has
been dry goods, aside from c0ttons foreign dress
.woolenS being most popular. Seven New England
shoe manufacturing centers report $4,000 cases
shipped this week against 10000 for the week a
year ago.
Exports Of wheat -four included as wheat, from
both coasts of The United States for the past six
business days will probably be characterized as
disappointing, amounting 10 only 2,572, 900
bushels. This total, while $4,000 larger than the
week before Is rather below the weekly average in
previous months But sone year ago the CORE
spending total 2,005,00 bushels; two years
ago. 3,0S0,000 bushels, and in 1892 it was 4,402,-
