DUN'S REVIEW.

New York, Dec. AR. G. Dun &,
Co.'S revew says: Holiday trade
has increased moderately and in
wholesale staple lines no relapse has
been seen. either in the volume of
transactions or in prices. The cold
weather helped New York, but it is
still behind the rest of the country, for
some recent losses from failures in the
textile markets have fallen rather
heavily here.
Industrial conditions continue with
no great accumulation of new mer-
chandlse IN any quarter. In spite of
the break in cotton. the market for
fabrics is still in a good position, the
sellers having little to offer and moth
ing at cuts in prices.
The sharp rise in the wholesale
price of coal. fully 25 cents in two
weeks, reflects the actual scarcity of
the product. The general conditions
as to the partially manufactured and
finished products in the iron and steel
industry are little changed Prices
are hard and mills are working on old
orders that will take them well into
the new year.
1t is estimated that 100000 tons of
rails have been ordered for next year :
delivery. American makers have scor-
ed another triumph in the African
bridge contract. secured in the face of
British competition.
Most of the footwear manufacturers
have booked sufficient business 10
keep them we'll open for many. weeks
and they are refusing contracts except
at further advance in prices. New
England factories are mainly working
on spring goods, and mail orders come
freely from distant sections. Another
general reduction in quotations is re-
ported in the Chicago hide market
Cereals did not maintain their ad
vance. Coffee suffered from liberal
receipts at Brazil ports and No. 7 Rio
is Ia cents below the price a month
ago.

AT THE AUDITORIUM TONIGHT.
AT midnight an extra force of stage
hands began work upon the production
of "The Evil Eye" which will be pre-
sented at the Auditorium tonight
Their work will not be over until the
curtain rises this evening. the produc
tlon which will be given here tonight
being one Of the most complicated ever
seen in this city. The massive scenic
effects presented in the production of
"The Evil Eye" are built upon scale
which has never been ecualled in this
or any other country. When it is
known that one section of the stage ef-
fects, the wings of which alone are
each 22 feet long, weighs almost a ton,
and that the remainder of the stage
furniture Is built on the same massive
lines, the magnitude of the work to be
undertaken in placing it all in position
can be understood. There are no less
than six stars in the company, which
Mr.. Yale sends to Marietta and the en-
tire company is said to number sixty
people not including the splendid
Phasey troupe of singers, and the Elec-
trio Ballet dancers. Seats are on sale
at Gates's Book Store.

still that made by the finished pro-
ducts of the iron and steel industry,
but other favorably situated lines are
boots and shoes and lumber. New
business in the former is rather light
at wholesale. but the manufacturers
are generally busily employed and
leather is firm in sympathy. A good
export demand for the latter is noted.
Retail lumber is rather quiet, but
wholesalers are preparing for a good
year. Hard woods especially are firm
in price Cereals are lower in price,
due to profit taking on the late upward
movement of supplies, particularly of
corn, which is favored by the weather
and to the loss on a part of foreign
business.
The government cotton estimate of
1O,100,GOO bales is larger than expect
ed. The close of the week finds future

is natural at this period, and the hignI
cost of raw material and the low cost
of finished products do not harmonic
Early spring trade business. however,

however.
Wheat, including flour. shipments
for the week were 4,7S5,577 bushels,
against 3,432,159 bushels last week
and 3,26S.649 for the corresponding
week of 1899, and 6,24S,S59 in 1898. The
corn exports for the week were 4,S53,-

last week a year ago and 3,251,936
bushels in 1888.

STOCKS WENT UP
And the Buying Demand Was Both Large
and General.
By Associated Press

New York. Dec. 14.-The stock mar
ket today demonstrated again its as
tonishing resistency and underlying
absorptive powers. The intimation to-
day of losses by the banks during the
week, conclusively shown by the
known movements of money. has been
offset by gain of over 81 900 900 from
some local sources. Coming on top of
a series of favorable developments, it
threw the market into a state of boil
ing animation and buoyancy. An
eager buying demand came from all
sources, and was distributed all
through the list about equally.
The bond market showed a large
volume of dealings and prices advanc-
ed. U. S. bonds were all unchanged

BRADsTREET's REPORT.

By Associated Press.
New York. Dec. 14.-Bradstreet's
says: Favorable conditions rule gem
orally in all lines of seasonable trade
Holiday preparations are dominant in
the retail business. Wholesale distri-
button IS limited. as is natural at this
period, but western jobbers are in re-
ceipt of fair orders for business. So
far the best reports as to retail trade
come from the west and south. In the
leading industries the best report is
