TRADE REPORT,

r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade SAYS:
Improvement in trade and industry
continues, favorable reports largely
outnumbering adverse influences. The
most important event of the week was
the two thirds vote by the bituminous
coal miners to accept the proposed
reduction in wages. This will prob
ably prevent a serious struggle that
would paralyze manufacturing just as
it was beginning to revive.
Retail distribution of Easter goods
steadily expands, and dealers stock
are being depleted because of conser-
vatism in purchases. This promises
large supplementary jobbing and
Wholesale orders as tho season ad-
vances.
Failures numbered 22S in the United
States, and 81 in Canada.
