DUNS REVIEW OF TRADE.

New York, April 5.-R. G. Dun &
Co. S weekly review Of trade will say:
Returns showing the condition OF re-
tail in March throughout the country
ard the distribution of goods Of inal
comparison with the same month III
1894. and 1898, give gratifying evidence
that in most trades and districts mark
ed improvement over 1894 is realized
though on the whole trade is smaller
than in 1898. The main difference in
comparison with 1898 is found in the
general decline of prices, which makes
trade in value smaller even where it
is clearly as large or larger in quaint
ity.
Accounts from the chief centres Of
wholesale trade are also encouraging
this week. There is not only hopeful
spirit but real gain in business,
though not equally distributed geo
graphically, or as to branches Of the
trade. The best news from the indus
tries Is that labor troubles have been
settled or avoided, Mahoning iron and
eastern wooden mills being again ac-
tive. Next in importance is the bet
ter demand for many manufactured
products. which gives greater reason
TO hope that recent advances from the
bottom may prove successful Follow
ing the rise in coke there have been
this week sales OF 100000 tons Of lake
ore at about fifteen cents advance,
and finished products are no longer
inactive. Bessemer iron rising to
S1O.65, Grey Forge to 1925, common
bar to 80 cents, structural angles to
$104 and plates 81 per ton.
The production OF COnnellsyllle coke
for the week, 168, 101 tons, was the
largest on record, but there is some
fear that higher coke and ore may
close some works. Copper is frmer,
as sales Of the stock taken from the
French syndicate removed load over
the market for the past six years, and
tin has been stronger with tin plates,
because Of purchases for Pacific can
ners. Sales of wool reflect the re-
newed confidence of manufacturers, as
strikes are cut OF the way, for $500
100 pounds were sold last week, against
4.64S.2OO last year. No rise in prices
is seen or expected in view Of heavy
sales and receipts Of foreign wool.
