DUN's REVIEW.

New York, January 29.-R. G. Dun X Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
 Business conditions would be most satis- factory if present high prices for the leading staples was the result of whole some demand, but the prominence of ma nipulation prevents any such gratifying conclusions. Aside from the lines tempo rarily stimulated by severe weather, trade is quiet.
 Demand for lumber Is gradually inn proving, stocks in the yards are light as a result and attractive prices promise a large cut. Weather conditions are favor able for winter wheat Transportat ton has suffered some interruption by storms, but railway earnings thus far reported for January are 3S per cent larger than in l90s
 Optimistic reports are not numerous re- garding the iron and steel industry. An ticipations of rapid recovery with the ad- vent of a new year are not yet realized. That prices have declined a little further is perhaps the best that can be said of results during the past week There are still many prospective purchasers who hold back contracts, feeling satisfied that there is danger of advancing prices. A few new contracts for bridges and build ings have taken structural steel and fairly encouraging reports are issued regarding new business in wire and tube depart ments. but orders for steel rails are la mentally small
 Buyers of cotton goods have at last begun to exhibit anxiety regarding the situation, and they find it increasingly diff ficult to secure prompt deliveries, while prices are gradually appreciating. Orders are constantly rejected. either because of inadequate stocks. or insufficient bids. Jobbing and retail trade in this line is

TRADE BOOMING
 IN THE SOUTH Iron and Steel Industry Less
 Satisfactory STRAIN IN COTTON GOODS Dun and Bradstreet Report General Trade as Quiet, Due in Large Measure to the Severity
 of the Weather.
STRAIN IN COTTON GOODS

New York, January 29-Bradstreet' S tomorrow will say:
 Weather conditions have been unfavor- able throughout wide area, and while in some instances helpful to retail trade, extreme cold or heavy snows have rather checked spring trade and retarded trans portation. There is a rather quiet feel ing found also in several lines of specu- lation. and of industry. An exception to this is found in the south, which section, stimulated by also undreamed of cotton prices, is preparing to plant an enormous acreage. Spring trade which was opening up actively in the southwest has been brought practically to standstill for the time being by zero weather.
 Rather less satisfactory reports come from the iron and steel trade. Southern iron is claimed to be unchanged, but northern iron is weaker foundry grades not being in active demand. The rail- roads are still out of the market for rails. Structural material is quiet and some makers are reported cutting bill let prices. Tin plates have been marked down and the tendency of other pro- ducts is towards ease. Some exceptions to the quieter feeling are apparent, espe- cially in some lines of hardware.
 The strain in the cotton goods branch of the textile market increases rather than diminishes with the steady upward flight of the raw material. Buyers of cotton goods have shown disposition to trade more freely and to pay higher prices, but at all markets sellers are slow to fill orders except "at value"
