CONDITION OF TRADE
Review of Business by Dun and Brad
streets Agencies

NEW YORK Feb 10.-Dun'S weekly
review of trade tomorrow will say:
Some disturbance has been caused by
the elements but business conditions
are otherwise unusually satisfactory
for the season. Distribution of mer-
chandise is of liberal proportions and
the new year is fulfilling sanguine eX-
pectations. Low temperature and
storms interrupted traffic to some eX-
tent, but accelerated business in heavy
wearing apparel, overshoes and fuel.
Manufacturing is still the best fea-
ture, especially in the various depart
mentS of the iron and steel industry,
while textile mills and shoe shops are
well engaged
Some conservatism is noted in the
placing of advance orders but this is
d favorable symptom indicating the
absence of operations that produce liz
flated prices.
Favorable reports are received from
almost every department of the iron
and steel industry, even steel rails
sharing the better feeling, orders on
the books now exceeding Il million
tons.
Hides have ruled fairly steady, ma
tive steers constituting the bulk of the
offerings. Arrivals of foreign dry
hides are readily absorbed at fun
prices. Business in leather is expand
ing.
Failures for the week number 256 in
the United States against 22S last year,
and 81 in Canada compared with 20 a
year ago.
NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-Bradstreet' S
tomorrow will say:
Spring jobbing has at last begun to
expand and reports of improvement
come from the west. northwest and
far west. despite severe winter wea-
ther, which has in the south operated
to check the development noted last
week Dry goods, shoes. groceries,
hardware, millinery and lumber have
all sold better of late and in larger
volume than at this date a year ago,
which latter period, however, saw
somewhat OF halt occurring.
Industry remains as active as here
tofore, and the iron trade conforms ia
the best records heretofore made, in
that statistics show production and
consumption the heaviest ever record
ed
Collections are still a source of COM
plaint apparently feeling the effect of
weather conditions. Money is still
phenomenally easy and a temporary
check to the heavy outgo of gold is
noted. The labor situation is on the
whole favorable, but the perennial un-
rest in the New York trades is again
manifesting itself with great possibili-
ties for future trouble. The general
undertone is still Of undiminished con-
fdence in a large trade when winters
grip Is finally broken and mild weather
arrives. Reports to Bradstreets in
dicate a gain of per cent in the gross
receipts OF railroads over the same
month last year.
Business failures i'm the United
States for the week ending February
number 2O7 against 2S9 last week
and 202 last year.
Wheat. including flour, exports for
the week ending February 8 are 9S7,
775 bushels against 9l5,35S last week,
and 1,745.255 last year.

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-The feature
in stocks today was the aggressive
advance in the iron and steel indus
trials, especially those whose property
holdings are in the southern regions.
The effect of this movement on the
general list was extremely moderate
and a fair proportion of the prominent
trading stocks were heavy.
The imminence of a double holiday
undoubtedly had it's usual effect in
diminishing the volume of professional
operations except so far as the closing
up of outstanding contracts was con-
cerned. Contemplated absences for
more prolonged periods on the part of
some very speculative operators were
also looked upon as indicating the like
lihood of dullness in the immediate
future.
There were some rumors pointing to
a distressed short interest of long
standing being closed out, especially in
the iron and steel stocks. But the
strength in this group was more
plausibly explained by the persistent
rumors in circulation that an old
standing project had been revived for
the consolidation of the leading inde-
pendent companies of the southern re-
gion. Tennessee Coal, Republic Steel
and Sloss-Sheffield Steel were indi-
Gated.
reports or the notation or Donu
issue to take care of short time notes
by Republic Steel and an assumption
that provision would be made out of
the proceeds for the accrued dividends
on the preferred stock were potent fac
tors in that stock.
United States Steel itself showed ell
tire Indifference to the early stages of
the movement, but rose strongly at the
last. The railroad list was but scantlly
represented in gains for the day and
most of the prominent stocks were
sluggish throughout
The passage of the rate control bill
through the house of representatives
was held responsible in some quarters
for the heaviness of the market. An
other motive assigned was the pros
pect of a weak bank statement. The
money market continued very easy and
gave no evidence of a diminution of
the supply of available credits.
The buoyancy of the iron and steel
industrials held the latter market
steady, but the Indifference of the rail-
road list was unrelieved. The closing
was firm.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1O.-A unique finish
was witnessed in the trading pits on
the board of trade today. The entire
list of staples-wheat corn, oats and
provisions-closed at almost identically
the final figures of the previous day.
Otherwise the session was nearly fea-
tureless.
Lower cables and increased ship
ments from Argentina tended to give
the market an easy tone. May opened
unchanged to hc lower, at $1.16Ad

start trading was very light. The bulk
of the business was done by commits

of some sudden demonstration by New
York spectators.
According to a report by st. Louis
trade paper most of the fall-sown
wheat is amply covered with snow, in
suring full protection from cold wea-
ther. The Michigan crop reports were
also bearish. AS a result May sold off
to $1.16M and July to $100K Buying
by shorts caused a temporary rally,
but the market soon eased off again
and the close was fairly steady. COM

Influenced by firm cables and small

market held steady the entire day.
May opened and closed at 45s@45%c.
Covering by shorts impaired a firm
undertone to the oats market. May
sold up to 305sc and closed at the top.
Provisions were firm at the outser
