THE BUSINESS SITUATION.
Signs of Improvcment-Prom Of
Good Spring Trade.

NEW YORK, January 4.-AIessrs. Il.
G.. Dun q Co. will say tomorrow in their
weekly review Of trade: The failures in
three weeks Of January show liabilities
Of sl7.3s6.7il, against $ls565.so0 last year;
in manufacturing, $65l. l2O this year
against S497, 193 last year; IN trade SO %
$780, against SS,l65,267 last year. The iail-
ures this week have been 40i in the United
States, against 354 last year, and 20 IN
Canada, against s. last year.
Though business is still waiting, there
are some signs Of definite improvement.
II is now believed that the first payment
for bonds will cause no further pressure,
and the money markets are easier as
respects loans on collateral. though the
difficulty Of making commercial loans
still checks operations. Merchants ana
bankers report that the signs promise a
good spring trade. The domestic trade re-
corded through the clearinghouse is 6.5
per cent. more than year ago.
Signs Of Improvement in the iron bust
ness are more inspiring. even though they
spring from combinations that have raised
the price of coke and ore. \ contract FOR
10000 tons Of rails, Pacific delivery, taken
by an eastern concern In competition
with foreign makers: a contract for 5000
tons OF pipe IOF lne East Jersey Hdtti-
works; contracts for 400 tons of pipe
taken by an Alabama firm, with contracts
for the Commercial Cable and other build
ings here. covering 800 tons, are the
man features, but there is also better
demand for wire nails. after long stagna-
ton, and also for sheets.
Pig-iron is rather weak, southern IS
competing sharply. and speculative buyers
of some months ago are selling below
furnace price, but the average for all
products is practically unchanged, and
ia per cent. below the highest last year.
Coke production has again been cut
down 1875 tons in a single week.
The cotton-mills are discussing curtail-
ment of production, as goods continue
weak. with an output largely exceeding
distribution, though the week has brought
a considerable number OF inquiries, and
a larger spring trade is still hoped for.
Woollens are practically unchanged.
Cotton is shade lower than a week
ago, notwithstanding strong arguments By
Nell and others. but receipts from plant
ers at nearly the same rate, spinners'
takings falling behind last year. and
the marketing of goods does not support
the bril- liant estimates for consumption
this year. The exports for January have
been so per cent. less, spinners takings
80 per cent less. and receipts from plan
tations 80 per cent. less than last year.
