TRADE Affected
BY THE WEATHER
Possible Injury to Crops Holds Back
Commercial Ac-
tiVity.

New York, April Or. q. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
UnSeasonable weather is still the
chief drawback to Improvement in
business, complaint being received
from every section of the country, and
slower collections are also attributed
to this factor. Not only is current
distribution of mcrchandiSe partic-
ularly dry goods, effected by the ther-
mOmeter, but the future commitments
are undertaken most conServatively
on account of the possible injury TO
crops. There is much confidence re-
garding the future. despite the fact
that at many points supplies of mer-
chandiSe are burdenSome.
With the exception of wearing ap-
parel, manufacturing plants are in
crcaSingly active. and structural work
is gradually resuming normal pro-
portions for the season. While no
further Improvement can be discerned
in the iron and steel industry, it is
gratifying to find no distinct evidence
Of Il setback. Slightly lower prices
prevail for the leading agricultural
staples.
Failures this week numbered 241 in
the United States. against 166 last
year and u in Canada. compared with
10 year ago.
