TRADE REPORT.

r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of
Trade for last week says:
The distribution of merchandise pro-
ceeded last week on a steady and salts
factory scale throughout the east and
IN the west the relief from the long
drought is beginning to be reflected
In larger retail trade, so that for the
quarter promise is held out for larger
business than last year. Crops in the
territory most effected by the late
drought are improving, and the wealth
er has been highly favorable in nearly
all districts east of the Missouri river.
though rains have interrupted the ship
ping wheat harvest. The United States
steel strike has affected prices extensi-
vely, particularly on sales for immedi-
ate delivery. New England boot and
shoe factories are still actively engaged
and the stability of prices remains a
feature.
New York and Western shops are equ-
ally busy, jobbers complaining of slow
deliveries. Wooden mills have full en-
ployment as a rule, and the increased
consumption of raw material tends to
harden the tone of the wool market al
though no change is possible.
Otficial figures of corn conditions
were far more hopeless than the most
pessimistic anticipations, indicating
only 5,0OO,O00,000 bushels of wheat and
corn together. Inflated prices brought
out receipts for the week of 1853, 7O5
bushels against 2,O32,193 bushels last
year and reduced Atlantic exports to
631,5O6 bushels, compared with 1852
1886 bushels a year ago, and 4,O34, 1902
bushels in 1899.
Wheat also advanced sharply but
there is sound argument for strength in
Atlantic exports during the last two
weeks of 3,579,034 bushels against A.
37S,9O1 bushels in 1900 and 1866, GAG
bushels two years ago.
Failures for the week numbered 1853
in the United States against 161 last
year. and 10 in Canada against "a last
year.
