New York, December 1l.-R. G. Dun &
co. s weekly review Of trade tomorrow will
say: The approach of holidays and doubt
about the action Of congress put off fur
ther improvement until the new year The
wheat market has weakened with less
gloomy news from other countries and
larger Western receipts, though only 1891,
31i bushels, against COOS. $50 last year.
Disappointment about the break in prices
may help to increase receipts. Pacific
dispatches show that exports continue very
heavy.
Cotton has declined 3-l6c In spite of all
the stories that the crop has been nearly
marketed, yet continues to come forward
steadily. With over 1900. 900 bales In sight
already there are estimates based ON GOV
eminent reports that the yield is $500. 900
bales or less, which would leave but 1900,
900 to come forward in months and 2
weeks. When the official report first came
in there was rush OF buyers and rapid
decline followed.
The iron output for December was 1ie. 27S
tons weekly, against l2i,077 In November,
and 2l6.7o7 a year ago. and unsold stocks
reported were 35.90l smaller than Novem-
Der /, but these do not include stocks OF
the great steel companies The industry is
for the time dcmoralized by uncertainty
regarding the great combinations. The
formal withdrawal Of the Belaire company
broke the billet pool. but meeting is in
session to reconstruct II possible The
beam makers also meet this week to revive.
If they can, their compact and the steel
rail works will meet shortly with the pros
pect that one important concern viii give
out, and that II others are kept together
prices will have TO be materially reduced.
The bar association scarcely prctends to
control prices. which are slightly lower
this week for steel, and the rupture Of the
nail association for the time left the bar
price for wire nails about sl.50 at Pitts
burg, with extra charges on ordinary as
sortments, averaging IL cents. against 1850
paid last month with extras averaging 10
cents.
Until the future influence Of these COM
binations is better defined narrow trading

the speculative market has apparently lost

that the reference to trust ORGANIZATIONS

state legislation. The message however,
produced little or no liquidation ot long

prcss got TO work OF variety OF resolu-

no effect. IN fact the street seemed to be

was unlikely to take positive action OF any

The utter absence of outside participa-
