The weekly review Of
Chicago trade, published
CHICAGO

JOY II. U. Dun " Co., says:
An unusually good official crop report,
increased use of money and further
broadening in demands upon produc-
tive branches have been encouraging
developments and favorably affected
the business situation generally. A
material addition to activity was de-
rived from the opening of lake traffic
and a large initial water movement of
necessary raw material.
Country advices indicate that farm
work is advanced several weeks earlier
than usual, and this has given decid-
ed impetus to trading. Jobbers' sales
have exceeded the total Of year ago
in most of the staple lines. dry goods.

statesmen continue turning in satisfac-
tory orders for warm weather goods.

New YMk ly Review of Trade says:
C-1 Good news still predom-
mates in trade and industry. Easter
business is of large volume; dry goods.
clothing, footwear, and all lines of
wearing apparel reporting an unusual
ly good demand, and shipping depart
ments are taxed to their full capacity
in many cases.
The country as whole is experience
ing more settled weather, which is re-
flected in better retail distribution of
merchandise. Jobbing trade in goods
for fall delivery is broadening, and
there is more inclination to prepare for
the future
Manufacturers report less idle ma
chinery, the iron and steel industry
leading with an unprecedented output
of pig iron, yet consumption is also
above all records, for there is no ac-
emulation at the furnaces. Textile
mills are also well engaged, as a rule.
and forwardings of footwear from Bos-
ton make favorable comparisons with
every year except 1900.
A few labor controversies are threat
ened, but none is of sufficient magni-
tude to materially check progress, even
if expected settlements are not attain
ed, for the number of hands involved
is comparatively small.
BradStreets Commercial Agency
makes the following report:
Spring trade at wholesale apparently
has passed its zenith, but recorders, es-
pecially at the West, are unusually
good; iron consumption is unprecedent-
ed, winter wheat promises excellently,
and the acreage in other cereals will be
large.
Building and building material are
active, export trade displays signs of
Improvement, railroad earnings show
10 per cent gain for March and an in
crease of per cent for the quarter
and bank clearings show continued
heavy increases over last year. Retail
trade is good in sections. but has been
retarded by cold weather or heavy
rains and the lateness of Easter at 9TH
er points.
Meat, fish, and poultry prices are
conspicuous exceptions to the otherwise
easing tendency of food products. In
meats, lessened receipts and higher
prices for cattle, Lenten influences, and
other causes are assigned for this.
