Lynn, Mass. Jan. 29-Probably one of

Cancellation. today, in the case Of the
petition of the employees of Williams.

of wages made in the factory. Dec. /.
The decision is big victory for the en,-
ployes. The board states emphatically
that 1t is unable to. find in the prices paid
by other manufacturers, over those
named by the firm as their closest COM
petitors in the market. any justification
for the reduction in the work of beat

The board has no power In law to cn-
force its decision. One labor leader
stated that the decision would prevent
other Lynn shoe manufacturers from
making reductions in the wages of en-
ployes. The labor leaders expect as a
result of the decision. that they will be
able to get back the reductions made in
the Lynn shoe factories.

BRAosrREErs REPORT.
Heavy Snow and Cold Weather Affects Busj.
ness-Decrease In Failures.

New York. Jan. 29.-Bradstreet's, to-
morrow will say: There has been a
falling off in general trade owing to the
heavy fall of snow and the cold
weather. The low temperature has
stimulated the demand in few retail
lines. but the jobbers report sales of
dry goods. clothing and farmers sup
plies checked. There is a moderate
increase in the distribution Of heavy
winter goods, but commercial travellers
very generally report that buyers are
even more conservative than earlier in
the month, and that wholesale trading
in January. except in the lines speci-
fled, is smaller than for years. Mer-
camille collections have been interrupt
ed, and the Improvement looked for in
iron and steel is not in sight. The
most favorable feature of the business
week is the sudden and sharp falling
off in the total number of business fail
ures in the United States, the aggregate
being 326. compared with 429 last week,
a decrease of 103. When compared
with the corresponding week in 1885,
this weeks falling off is G..
There have been increased sales of
hides and leather. in some instances of
shoes, coal fertilizers and Southern pig
iron for export. At Boston, Charleston
Galveston. and San Francisco there are
moderate gains in trade compared with
last week. The feature of the Pacific
coast business situation continues rel
atively large proportion of the
foreign trade. The Eastern and Mid
die state iron and steel industries are
iii an unsatisfactory condition. while
the Southern furnaces announce nearly
1000 tons of iron sold for export with
Russia in the market as wouldbe
buyer.
The heavy, business in raw wool
within fortnight continues and there
is still an active demand. Boston
sales for three weeks aggregate nearly
10000. 900. pounds, of which more than
two-thirds is domestic. The London
wool sale develops sharp competition
between American buyers. and wools
suitable for use here are as high as at
any time during the December sale.
Mems wear, woOlens and heavy weights
for next fall. are attracting attention
and good orders have been booked.
Cotton goods continue depressed, not
wthstanding the efforts to relieve the
situation by reducing the heavy stocks
of prints on hand.
Bank clearings at the cities throughout
the United States show n sharp falling
off from last week. about S per cent, an
Increase of I per cent. compared with the
corresponding total of a year ago.
The downward movement of prices for
some of the more important staples con-
tinues conspicuous, notably for flour,
wheat. oats. lard. coffee. petroleum. tur-
pentine and tin plate. Quotations tor H.
dian corn. pork. sugar. cotton and print
cloths are practically unchanged.
