BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 9-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say: Spring jobbing trade is
as active as ever excepting last year at
nearly all markets; winter wheat crop
reports are excellent: prices, except of
some country produce, wheat and flour,
among breadstuffs and bleached cotton
goods, show notable strength and building
activity, which is of largo volume, goes
on with out a break.
Business failures in the United States
for the week ending March number III,
against 1S0 last week and 190 in the like
week of 1905.
Failures in Canada for the week num-
bered "a, against 30 last week and 40 in
this week of a year ago.
NEW YORK, March 9--Dun's review OF
trade tomorrow will say; Some irregular
ity is noted in trade reports for the past
week, but not more than is seasonable
and mercantile collections are generally
prompt. The few minor strikes do not
seriously interfere with progress and thus
far the only. noticeable effect OF the coal
controversy is the unusually large demand
for this season of the year in all fuel
markets and the disposition of small mer-
chants in the immediate vicinity of the
anthracite mines to allow stocks to be-
come depleted. Prices of commodities
rose slightly during February. Dun s
index number was $l04,24 on March /,
against $10A0l1 month ago and Sl0l,9S9 a
year ago.
Railway earnings continue to make
striking comparisons with last years fig
ures, the increase during February
amounting to 243 per cent. Foreign com
merce at this port for the last week
showed an increase in exports of $926 over
