LITTLE CHANGE IN
 GENERAL TRADE
Bad Weather Has Restricted
 Business Slightly
BUYERS ARE HOLDING OFF
Iron and Steel Industries Show No Ad- vance In Conditions, But Prices Well Maintained Under
 Circumstances.

New York, May S.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say:
 Weather, trade and industrial con ditions are little changed from last week and farm work. retail and job ping business and the movement Of old crops to market had been restricted by heavy rains, low temperatures or bad roads. The only notable exceptions to this are found in the Pacific coast and at few southwestern centers.
 Reports from the leading industries are of still great quietude.
 Manufacturers feel the lack of con fident buying by jobbers and whole salers, who in turn report final distrib- utors cautious in buying only what they need to replenish broken stocks. The textile traders are dull and on short time. but cotton goods men are more confident that bottom prices have been reached. The iron and steel in- dustries show little change. Pig iron is dull and weaker and prices are claimed to be down to cost of produc- tion. Some finished products are weaker. but on the other hand the leading interests assert prices will be maintained. The leather trade is rather quieter, and eastern shoe shipments are 30 per cent off from 1907.
 Collections are still backward as a whole.
 Business failures in the United States for the week ending May number 2S0. against 2S2 last week, and 154 in the like week of 1907. Canadian business failures for the week number 22, which compares with 22 last week, and IS in this week of 1907.
 Wheat, including flour, exports from the United States and Canada for the week ending May ', aggregate 1,956,- 3S3 bushels, against 1,620,52 last week, and 2,994,419 this week last year. For the 45 weeks of the fiscal year the ex- ports are 1S0,374,168 bushels, against 146, ,795, ,004 in 1906-07.
 Corn exports for the week are 333.- PTS bushels. against 407 0O2 last week. and 1,744,S00 in 1907. For the fiscal year to date the exports are 44.355,- 6S5 bushels, against 6S,173,737 in 1906-07.
