TRADE IS HAMpERED
Cold Retards Movement-Warn
Weather Will Bring Activity
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Feb. S.-Bradstreets
tomorrow will say:
widespread cold weather hampers
trade in nearly all lines, thus retard-
ing, but not entirely checking the OPEN
ing of spring distribution. Except in
few cases, however, notably trans
portation and mining. industry dis
plays rather less than seasonable in
reference and the feeling is strong
that milder weather will usher In wide-
spread activity in all lines. The late
freeze in Florida did much damage to
fruit and truck crops January clear
ings are the largest ever recorded in
that month. Copper and lead are
higher on the week. Wool is quiet but
firm here. London wool sales prices
were good except that some low grade
cross-breds weakened slightly. Build
ing activity has been lessened by re-
cent cold weather, and lumber and
building material for immediate use
are affected thereby.
Wheat, including flour exports for
the week were 945,3 1853 bushels, against
1,101,5S7 last week, and 2604226 last
year. From July 1 to date exports are
40,057, 1873 bushels against 101 1851 ,344 last

friends he had made in over half GEN.

civilian at the time of his death. the SER
vices were in accordance with the rank
of brigadier general, which he twice held
in the United States army. The funeral
services were conducted by Rev. Dr. Wal
lace Radcliffe at the New York Avenue
Presbyterian church, of which General
Boynton has been member for many
years.

of the Society of the Army of the Cum
berland, the Loyal Legion. the Sons of the
American Revolution and the Grdiron
club. in all of which organizations Gem
eral Boynton had for many years past

ket being literally buried in masterpieces

arrangements. took occasion to pay a
high tribute to the character and public
services of General Boynton, saying that
he admired him as the highest type of
soldier and citizen. and as one of the best
examples of patriotic American manhood.
Until within a few weeks of his death

the board of education of the District of
Columbia, and as a tribute to his memory
public schools throughout the district
were closed and the flags on all school
buildings half-masted.
Resolutions eulogistic of General Boyn-
ton were adopted at a special meeting of
the Women's Industrial and Patriotic
league.
