THE CONDITION OF TRADE.

Tightening the stocks carried by retailers a
suit or mild winter weather heretofore. More has
been doing. too. in wholesale lines spring ac-
count, and business in this respect is claSSed as
fair. Reports relatively best from the West
ana South. from which sections advtceS are that
the total January business compares well with a
year ago The contrary is reported from leading
Eastern markets, however. and the aggregate done
here has not so far eQualled expectations. Trade
collections as whole are fair. the only complaint
coming from sections where mild weather has in
terfereS with the distribution of heavy goods
Shoe trade reports are on the whole quite good,
Eastern shipments below year ago. Sole
leather is active and firm. and some goods are
half cent higher Calfskins are In limited supply
Measured by the earnings Of railroads, the volume
Of the country'S business is certainly in excess Of
year ago. while bank clearings. though. OF course
Swelled by heavy stock speculation. show immense
gains. and in fact exceed all records for the first
month of the year. Among manufacturing indus
tries rather more irregularty is to be noted Foun-
dry iron is weaker while some finished steel prod
ucts are higher Woollens are slow of sale. and
the squeeze In raw cotton. though temporary, has
not helped cOnverters who have to pay more for
products. Heavy cuts In rubber goods point TO
coming sharp competition in this industry. Staple
prices are little changed, cotton. pork and white
pine lumber are all higher but fractional declines
are noted In wheat corn. -four. oats. lard and tin
Coffee, stattstically considered, IS weak but the
late steady decline appears TO have been checked
for the moment.
