BRADSTREET'S REPORT.

By Associated Pres,
New York, Jan. 25.-Bradstreet's re
port says: Despite some irregulari
ties in reports from different section;
ard industries, trade as whole is sat .

the year. Relatively the best reports
come from the Pacific coast. south anl

opening up well. Special activity is
noted in some branches Of the iron
trade. Speculation is limited in nearly
all lines of produce and in stocks.
Prices show a few impoTtont changes,
cereals being slightly higher, while
hog products and coffee are lower,
dairy products weak. The general
range of other values on the whole il
steady although some shading in the
higher grades of wool has occurred.
The feature of the week in iron has
been the placing of large order :
amount TO 100000 tons of bessemer pig
at equivalent to $1S.25 at Plttsburg.
This steadied the market generally,ex
cept for foundry grades, which are
weak. Some heavy buying is also re
ported at Birmingham, but the other
markets show little activity in this
line. In finished products Chicago
notes a sale of $4,000 tons of rails at
the old quotations, and that the total
sales for the season are ahead of last
years. The feature in the export line
this week was the shipment of 5000
tons of steel billets to Glasgow from
Birmingham, the largest shipment of
the material which was ever sent
abroad from the south. Among other
metals, copper is weak and fractional.
ly lower, but tin Is higher. Large ex-
port shipments of zinc ore from Mis-
souri, are announced. the quantity
eaualling so 600 tons,
There is less public speculative in
terest in the grain markets. Wheat is
however, slightly higher and corn Il
stronger in sympathy. The failures in
the United States for the week were

corresponding week OF a year ago.

party of five handsomely attired
women boarded North Clark street
cable car at the north end of Lincoln
park and took seats near the front
end of the last trailer. Half a dozen
other men and women were seated
in the car and they overheard con
versation that ran something like
this relates the Chicago Chronicle:
Never mind, III pay the car fare"
said one stately woman wearing
handsome sealskin cloak, as she
opened her pretty purse.
NO, let me pay it, interposed the
woman in the long automobile cloak,
who sat next to the first speaker.
You remember you paid it the last
time we came downtown together"

great enjoyment of the other occu-
pants of the car.
During the controversy the con-
ductor stood Just inside the door of
the car. He pretended to pay no at
tention to the women, but he was
listening, just the same. He had been
collecting fares on street cars for
many years and he had heard these
arguments before.
The conductor finally stepped to
the platform to assist passenger on
the car. Just as he again opened the
door to go to the five women for their
fares the woman in the sealskin cloak
arose. She held a quarter in her
neatly gloved hand and started to-
ward the conductor with her hand
outstretched. She wanted to ''steal
march" on her companions. The con-
ductor saw his opportunity to "get
even" for all the time he had lost in
waiting for the women to settle their
little dispute ana he seized it. He
grasped her extended hand, and shak-
ing il vigorously said:
"Why, how do you do? I'm awful

The woman was astonished and so
were her companions, but they all
realized Immediately that they had
been made the victim of the conduct
or's ready wit. The woman who was
so anxious to pay the fares hurried
back to her seat. Not a word was
spoken. The conductor returned to
the platform. A couple of blocks fur
ther on he went up to the party and
collected the fare for all from one
who had taken no part in the dis
pute.
When the women left the car at
Washington street the conductor re-
marked to a man on the platform:
"Well, guess she'll remember me
for an indefinite period"

DUN'S REVIEW,
BY Associated Press.

New York. Jan. 25.-R. G. Dun Il
Co S Review says: Rarely has there
been more business in staples. and in
manufactured goods at practically un-
changed prices than during the period
.-,,:,..co NCy. /. THIS week seems
m ED climax Of enormous dealings
at f5rses which become familiar. The
heavy itraGo irl pig iron at better
prices, Ghc larger distribution Of drv
goods at a firmer range of quotations,
and the rush to secure prompt delivery
of boots and, shoes, all indicate that
business may have escaped one Of
those weary readjustments Of prices
which have often proved so. trying in
recent years.
The jobbing trade in the interior is
good and collections continue excel
lent.
Domestic quotations have not hard
ened in sympathy with better prices
obtained in London. while few sales
are reported at moderate concessions.
The dulless in woolen goods is the diff
ficulty and while the manufacturer is
depressed there is little encourage
ment for the raw material. Staple pro-
ducts moved Within narrow limits.
Cotton maintained the advance above
ten cents.
