Agency on Outlook.

New York, April 22.-Advices to
the International Mercantile Agency
indicate continued prosperity of gener-
al trade, notwithstanding setbacks due
to unreasonable weather. Conditions
in the south are particularly satisfac-
tory, jobbers reporting excellent sales
with orders considerably in excess OF
year ago. This improvement is
noteworthy in dry goods, where spring
business is promising. Conditions in
and about st. Louis are specially fa-
vorable and continue to reflect the ex.
position demand, which is contributing
activity to varied lines. Excellent
spring trade is noted in hats, caps,
boots, shoes, clothing and kindred
branches
The outlook for iron and steel is not
as bright as it was a week ago owing
to depression existing in some lines.
Failure Of the United States Steel cor.
poration to exercise its option on pig
iron has had a depressing effect on
that market. In billets th2 demand
is good for early work, few contracts
being made for business delivered la.

prices hold firm. The market in
general however, rests on solid ba.
