AS DUN SEE IT.

New York, March 26.-R G. Dun's Weekly Review of Trade tommorow will say: Favorable conditions in the crop growing section promise we'll Advices from the northwest are par ticularly cheerful. The tariff discus sion in congress bears heavily upon many trades and the end of the de- bate is variously estimated at not be- fore May 15 to July 1.
 Whatever progress is made in iron and steel is mostly confined to struc- tured lines. Recent large sales in do- mestic hides caused a sharp advance in prices. The leather trade is decid- edly dull in all lines, buyers showing no disposition to operate at any price.

THE TRADE OUTLOOK
 NOT VERY CHEERFUL
It Is Better, However, In the West Than In the East

tomorrow will say: Weather. crop and industrial reports are still irregu- lar, with more than ordinary quiet noted in most lines. The wholesale trade feels the effects of the tariff discussion and uncertainties, and while fair business is doing, disap- pointment is expected at the total volume of trade in the first quarter.
 Western trade is relatively better than that east in women's apparel. but cool weather arrests expansion. In industrial lines generally. opera tions are quiet to dull in the iron and steel trade
