DUN's REPORT.
Business Recovering Activity and
Tone in a Healthy Manner.

New York. Nov. pr. G. Dun &
Cos. Weekly Review OF Trade. tomor-
row. viii say: With reasonable
promptness business is recovering both
activity and tone and fortunately with
out the sharp rise in general prices
which was seen in the spring, and
which was followed by a sudden and
serious transition to a more natural
range. Manufactured goods are rising
in response to better demand from
distributing sources. helped at the end
of the week by the more seasonable
weather. The ordinary measures of
business reflect increasing operations
at all points. but the textile markets
are the point of best response to the
improved undertone of trade.
Recital of conditions in the iron and
steel market has become a monotonous
repetition. Each winter there is the
same record OF activity so generally
distributed that everything from the
raw material to the finished product.
enjoys a share. Mills are not paying
25 cents n ton more for pig iron in or
der to store II. but to fill orders for
bars. beams. billetS. plates, sheets ana
all other partly manufactured forms
which in turn are eagerly sought by
rail makers, shipbuilders and concerns
having contracts for buildings and
bridges Railroad companies compete
for rolling stock. Export orders III
some lines are filled with difficulty ow-
ing TO the unusual domestic demand for
all forms of iron and steel products.
but in no quarter is there and unrea-
sonabie imitation of prices such as We're
d. 10. an,.ia e a {
year.
Two factors initiate strongly against
activity and strength in WOOL and WOOL
ems. Mild weather has been the chief
adverse influence. reducing sales far
below a normal volume i'll this vicinity,
while liquidation of embarrassed con
Germs threatens to throw a considerable
quantity on the market at forced sales.
In the light Of these diSquieting feat
ures. il is not surprising that sales OF
wool at the three chief Eastern mar
kcts declined to 1854. .33l. against S,S52.-
900 pounds in the week preceding, ana
l9s10.392 pounds, year ago. Leather
has ceased To follow the advancing
hide market and most grades of boots
and shoes are at the prices prevailing
two months ago. except for gain OF

and kip boots.
IJndaunted by recent reverses. spec
ulators in cotton advanced the price
about $3.50 bale in 10 days. Receipts
have been of moderate volume. but the
side of the current crop cannot be APP
proximated by any ordinary system
of averages this year owing TO the am
pie funds in the hands of the planters

New York, Nov. 23.-Dun's Review
will say, tomorrow. of Canadian trade:
Unreasonable weather is again max
ing havoc with retail trade in winter
weather and heavy goods of all kinds.
Unusually mild temperature is report
ed in some sections, while excessive
rain is the cause of complaint at other
points. Aside from these interruptions
conditions throughout the Dominion
are encouraging. and preparations for
holiday trade indicate activity. ST. John
reports fair business in jobbing lines
of groceries. hardware and shoes. but
only moderate sales of dry goods Hn0
retail trade barely up to the average
but improvement is anticipated with
more seasonable weather, while collec-
tions already show gain. Activity in
coal and iron continues at Halifax and
prices of staples are we'll maintained.
Wholesale business is generally good,
but retail trade is retarded by unSea-
sonable weather. Wholesale trade has
decreased at Toronto. and unfavorable
weather is responsible for a falling off
of sales of winter wear, although the
activity in holiday lines continues. OF
tawa reports the lumber cut at 500
100000 feet. which is somewhat less
than in previous years, owing to some
firms closing and others interrupted by
the fire last spring. Heavy rains affect
ed retail business in dry goods and
clothing at Montreal, but groceries.
hardware and metals have a fair move
ment. Shoes and leather are quiet ow-
ing to unsettled feeling among opera
tiVeS. Payments are fair to good and
money easy at ; per cent. on call Cold
er weather and snow roads have helped
trade III Quebec and collections are
good. Winnipeg reports fair trade in
groceries and dry goods and an i'm
proved demand for seasonable staples,
with collections somewhat improved,
but still slow. Business conditions are
fairly satisfactory at Victoria in
wholesale lines and collections
medium.
