The fire started from some unknown

TRADE REPORT.

r. @. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
Of Trade last week. says:
Favorable weather greatly facilitat-
ed eastern retail trade. the volume Of
transactions In all lines of wearing APP
parel being OF exceptional magnitude.
Activity was by no means restricted To
the specialties, however. the general
distribution of merchandise exceeding
that OF previous seasons, with prices
well maintained A distinct evidence
OF the yigor of legitimate trade is
found In the decline OF only 21.4 per
cent. In bank exchanges at New
York. Notwithstanding the fact that
transactions at the stock exchange
were not more than third of those
in the corresponding week last year. at
the other leading cities. clearings ex-
hibited a gain of s.s per cent over last
year and 31.5 per cent over 1899.
demand for an eight hour day af-
ter May by the blast furnace men
was the most disturbing feature In the
iron and steel industry. and this Is not
causing much alarm. as an agreement
will probably be reached during the
intervening month. Production is now
beyond all previous records. and the
movement of coke is ample. although
the early opening of lake navigation
may withdraw some OF the transporta-
ton facilities which can not well be
spared. Buying has been notably &C
tive In bars for implement makers. and
producers have sold their entire out
puts SO far ahead that new business
is not sought. Many plans for imme-
date structural work have been aban.
doned owing to the insufficient supply
of available material. On the other
hand, there are reports of reselling
contracts for rails and other supplies
by consumers. who have secured larg- |
er deliveries than will be needed. The
appearance of this speculative element
would be ominous II quotations were j
more excessively inflated Aside from
the advance In bar iron at Pittsburg to

$3.50. there are no special price
