Dim & Co.'s Trade Report.

New York, January 4.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S weekly Review of Trade tomor-
row will say:
holidays and of the unusually heavy
annual settlements in all lines of bus
mess, the new year opens with indica-
ions of further progress. There is no
lack of contracts offered at steady
prices in the country's leading indus
tries and in some departments of cot
ton goods there is q better movement,
though speculation has depressed the
price of the raw material. Otherwise,
a decline in what is the only note
worthy movement in staples. 1t Is ex-
planned by a reduction in the flour out
put at Minneapolis, some mills shutting
down, while the foreign demand at At
lantic seaboard cities is not brisk. The
ordinary measures of business contin-
ne to make gratifying exhibits.
Nc alteration has yet occurred in
quotations of iron and steel products,
and this industry is on such a firm
foundation that large. concerns have
maintained wages at the old scale, in
stead of making the reductions antic-
ipated. Iron ore prices are also un-
changed, and no action Is now expected
until March, although a lower rate was
looked for early in January. Coke is
firmly held at Connellsville, and there
are fewer idle ovens, while the much
discussed fall in prices appears confin-
ed TO inferior quality at outside fur-
naces. Pig iron sells freely for delivery
up to April and there is no indication of
weakness. All finished products are
eagerly sought, many large contracts
having been placed for structural ma
terial, and others are under considera-
ton. An American company is the
lowest bidder for the large bridge at
Sydney harbor, Australia.
The purchase of 700 acres near Pitts
burg by a leading steel company indi-
Gates great enlargement of it's plant.
Aside from one reduction of wages at
blast furnaces in the Mahoning and
Shening valleys the weeks news is
most encouraging in this the greatest
of the American industries.
The market for textiles has been fea.
tureless, and the holiday and stock
trading reduced business to limited di.
mansions.
Local jobbing and the retail trade Is
brisk in boots and shoes, and many
manufacturers are behind with orders
yet uneven distribution of business ha
left some shops ready to make conces.
sions.

UNKNOWN MAN DROWNED
Market Street Dock-Was Staggering
on the Wharf,.

Last night about IL o'clock while Po-
liceman Frank George was coming up
Water street opposite h woodpile on
the steamer Wilmington's wharf, he
saw a man who seemed to be stagger-
ing on the wharf on h ~northside OF
Market street dock. The officer turned
to look back down Water street when
suddenly he heard a loud splash in the
water.
The man whom he had seen on the
wharf had disappeared, so onicer
George. knowing that he had fallen
overheard or jumped off the wharf at
the orner Of the deck ran L
wharf to render assistance. When
twenty feet away he saw the mans
arms moving but when he got around
on the wharf from which he had fallen,
the mar had sunk out OF sight. He no
ticed bubbles coming up, and raped
with his club on the cabin Of a fat
which was lying alongside the wharf
with the cabin three feet from where
the man was in the water. Two ne
groes who were asleep in the cabin
came out and with Mr.. Georges assist
ance they felt the bottom with a fat
pole to ascertain if they could feel the
missing mans body, but they failed to
find him.
The water where the man went
overheard shelves off from six to ten
feet, but at the edge of the dock it
rapidly deepens to fifteen feet.
No one knows who the man was. A
negro who was with the other men on
the fiat went UP town early in the
night and had not returned. but the
men on the fiat say they are satisfied
hat the one who fell overheard was
not him as he intended to be absent for
the night.
