Co.'S weekly review of trade toda
says:
4 Vigorous vitality is conspicuous i

where and Indictment weather added {

complicated situation. Every possible
method is being adopted to improve
conditions, enormous sums are being
expended. yet accidents and losses are
frequent.
Transatlantic vessels failed to leave
on schedule time and many manufac-
turing plants are closed in part or
wholly. Labor disputes are more nll-
merous, altho not prevalent to any
extent in the leading industries. As
the season advances there is notable
activity in building trades, with the
customary acoeleratiOn OF inquiry for
materials. Retail dealings in most
staples are fully sustained, especially
of seasonable wearing apparel, but dis
tribution at many points has suffered
thru weather conditions. Wholesale
and jobbing trade is steadily increas-
ing, altfo deliveries can not be guaran-
teed. Foreign commerce is keeping
pace, with domestic trade. Railway
earnings during January were sc per
cent larger than last year and ILL., per
cent in excess Of 1901.
1t would have occasioned no surprise
had the cost of living materially adj
yanced during the mid-winter months.
In addition to the seasonable influence
of low temperature and consequent re-
striction of production in some lines,
there were numerous factors calculated
to aggravate the situation. s.
In the face Of initiating elements the
consumer was peculiarly fortunate, as
shown by Dun's index number of prices
proportional to consumption. which
was $100,920 on Feb. 1, against s100,355
a month previous, an advance OF only
one half of per cent.
Cotton is strong, liberal exports and
domestic competition more than neu-
tralizing the depressing influence of
heavy port receipts. Coffee aroused
from its lethargy and advanced a small
fraction because the worlds stocks de-
creased more than anticipated.
Little new business has been placed
with New England shoe factories, altho
there is sufficient work on hand to as
sure activity until late in March.
Failures in the United States were
264 this week, against 263 last week,
PCS the preceding week and 261 the
week last year, and in
Canada 80, against so last week. %
