Dun's Review, published by r. G. Dun
& Co. says this of business in Chicago
and iii the West:
Business at the banks continues ahead
of year ago. but in some important
branches of trade curtailment appears,
although not in n more marked degree
than usual at this season, when there is
less activity in outdoor work and lake
navigation becomes suspended. Weather
conditions also have not been entirely
satisfactory for a normal consumption of
seasonable merchandise and a strike OF
street car men interfered with dealings
at retail.
East-bound shipments of foodstuffs ag
gregate better than for the corresponding
week of 1902, but run behind last week
in wheat and hog products. Western
roads exhibit smaller gains In earnings
and managers are now considering meth
DDS for reducing operating expenses,
Manufacturing industries find new or
ders coming in slowly, hut many remain
fully occupied on old business. Mercan-
tile collections are not as satisfactory
for city as on country bills. Failures i'll
the Chicago district number "a, against
80 for last week aud % year ago, but
the liabilities show large increase.
Grain shipments, including 1,649,056
bushels of corn, reach 3.6S1, 191 bushels,
and are per cent less than a year ago.
Increasing receipts and favorable posi-
ton Of Argentine crops affect the general
demand, and prices are again lower
compared with week ago. Live stock
receipts, 2S7.9S4 head, are 40 per cent
under a year ago, when the total was alb
normally large. Notwithstanding n ten
dency to withhold supplies, prices do not
regain strength. Hogs declined 20 cents
per hundred weight and cattle recovered
20 cents. Demand for provisions shows
dizziness on export account, but has been
fairly good for domestic consumption.
