Fewer.

NEW YORK, Feb. Ar. @. Dun q Co. s
Weekly Review Of Trade tomorrow will say:
Along the Atlantic coast business was
temporarily checked by the storm and
some interior points also suffered from UNI
msvd give "eaoner, put consumpux ne-
Prices of p~erishable goods advanced sharply
and the whole range of staple commodities
lines OF wearing apparel Is Of ample proper
tons and all heavy hardwa and products
Of iron feel the pressure In that industry.
Prospects are most encouraging as to the
labor situation. Railway earnings thus far
reported for February show a decrease of
which is fully explained BY weather eondi,
tions, while compared with 1900 there is an
increase of 9I8 per cent. Bank exchanges
York show a gain of 1876 per cent over last
years, while the loss at New York Is but
SO per cent from the total In 1901. which Is
the activity on the stock market.
While by no means inflated beyond the
point warranted by urgent purchasers,
prices of pig iron have made decided adj
vancements, despite the opposition of lead
ing interests. More imports are reported,
but foreign markets are also advancing,
now that there is less prospect of American
competition because of the unprecedented
turai material are stiil DE most eagerly
sought Of finished steel products. Record
breaking building permits indicate the busi-
ness that Will be done by structural mills.
The presence of numerous buyers in the
Boston footwear market has not yet pro-
duced the desired volume of business. There
seems to be almost a deadlock owing to the
indisposition of manufacturer to make
desired concessions and the unw1llingness
OF purchasers to oner a full list of prices.
The hide market is weak and dull, with
the quality of Chicago receipts deterioriat-
ing. Following the advance in print cloths
to 3h there has been an equivalent gain in
many divisions Of the cotton goods market.
Exporters are bidding for China, although
headers now refuse to accept business at
the terms they offered early in the month.
Wooden and worsted fabrics for fall have
received less attention, but sales are still
fully UP to the average.
Farm staples are remarkably we'll main
tanned at the recent advance in quotations.
Cotton added a small fraction to it's price
and ruled quiet during the week at the
highest position of the crop year.
Stock market operations were only of fair
size and price changes small until Thurs
day, when a severe break occurred on the
announcement that the attorney general
would proceed against the Northern Securt-
ties company. Much time must now inter-
vene before the legal status of the concern
is decided.
Liabilities of commercial failures thus far
reported for February aggregate $6,697, 1881,
of which 50 ,404, 627 were in manufacturing
1882 42 in trading and $4ol,112 in other
commercial lines.
Failures for the week number $50 in the
United States, against 25S last year and 81
in Canada, against 80 last year.
