HOLIDAY TRADE WAS ACTIVE
Main Feature of the Present Condi-
ton of Business.
Sales In Excess of Last Year in MOsr
Markets-Csual Quietude in
Wholesale Lines.

New York, Dec. 25.-Bradstreet's
says: Activity in holiday trade, with
sales equaLto or in excess of last year
at most markets; quiet in wholesale
lines, as usual at this period, with fair
recorders from jobbers and exceptional
ly strong and active markets for spec
ulatively dealt in staples, notably cot
ton, wheat, coffee and provisions, are
the sa.4ent features of the week. 9th
err points brought out are the sustained
better feeling in iron and steel and ex-
ceptional ease in money at time when
disbursement preparations might be
expected to lead to high rates. High
prices for raw textiles are drawback
with which the cotton manufacturing
trade particularly is struggling. Hides,
leather and wool are stronger in tone.
In industrial lines the features are the
ending of the Colorado coal strikes and
the gradual downward readjustment
of wages in coal, coke and iron and
steel, to meet changed conditions of
supply and demand. The year is, how
ever, closing In many lines with rather
more cheerful tone than seemed posi-
