NEW YORK, Jan. 19-Dun's weekly
review of trade tomorrow will say:
Trade reports are more irregular,
chiefly because of the vagaries of the
weather. Open weather is facilitating
outdoor work. building operations are
proceeding at pace for the season, and
the News reports permits issued in 1905
to a value of $52S,1S6,412. which is 40
per cent in excess of the preceding year.
Railway earnings thus far reported
for January were per cent larger than
year ago.
Failures for the week number 256 in
the United States.
NEW YORK. Jan. 19.-Bradstreets
will say: Increasing production and re-
sales of earlier purchases of copper
make for weakness in that metal. with
declines noted also in lead, and mild
weather tends to declines in eggs po-
tatoes and some other lines of country
produce.
Business failures number PA against
sos in the like week of 1905.
