SPRING TRADE RETARpEp.

Highly Satisfactory.
Bradstreet's says: Stormy weather
has retarded the development of spring
trade at many markets, interruptins
telegraph and railway communication
and nearly checking the movement oi
merchandise. In prices, aggressive
strength is still the feature of the cot.
ton and cotton goods market, while re.
tail lines remain steady. Food prod.
nets. however, have weakened, and
some raw materials. like wool and hide
are quotable lower. Railway returns
continue to reflect large gains over q
year ago, though, as pointed out last
week, comparisons from now on will be
with better conditions in transportation
matters than year ago, and phenom.
enal gains are less likely attainment
That underlying business conditions
are in n high degree healthful will be
gathered from the fact that business
failures for February are at minimum
rs regards the number for that month,
and liabilities, only slightly exceeding
those of the same month year ago,
nave shrunk % a phenomenally low
