TRADE REPORT.

Bradstreet's report of trade for last
week says:
Holiday trade is in full swing at all
markets, while jobbing distribution
naturally shows a quoting down, pre-
paIatory to stock taking. Nearly all
advlces touching these latter branches
OF business are encourag .ng, and the
business results, so far as ascertained,
are, on the whole, favorable. Among
the industries iron and steel are easily
first in strength of demand prices, and
the word bouyant accurately describes
the situation as regards the feeling in
the trade generally. Though strong
this trade is still conservative, as a

iron ore Gold range) quotations for the
coming year at old prices in the face of
a temptation to advance that and fin

was so much business booked in ad.

er is in better demand, and SIG can be
had at Valley furnaces, though SIS. %

an unheard of rate, despite car short.
age, stopping coke deliveries, and
stocks of pig iron are still decreasing.
The crest of the recent rise in cereals
was for the present reached on Satur
day, December 8, for wheat and provis-
ions. The proportions of the recent
rise induced enormous realizing, which
for time was offset by heavy new
buying, but ultimately the size of the
grain movement and increases IN visi-
BILE supplies, added to the breaking OF
the drouth in the southwest and the
tightness OF money, left the bears mas
ters of the field. The steady rise in
wheat and corn prices shown since the
early part of November had resulted in
O. gain of about 13 cents each in wheat
and corn, from which the fall this week
is only about three cents. Provisions
