LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

United States Trust shares were the
principal stock sold yesterday on the local
exchange. a block Of them coming on the
floor 70 liquidate a holding that was ac-
cumulated some time ago The stock was
sold 10 the extent OF 12o shares. from
80 81 to par. The stock offered was taken
mostly by two brokers who have recent
ly been buyers Of the stock.
Traction shares were dealt in sparingly
al the higher prices OF recent days Wash
ington Gas sold p shares at q, and bid
ding for the stock at that figure failed 20
bring out any more. IL IS evident that
those who want 20 buy Gas must pay a
good price for IL. and II IS probably true
that if any considerable amount Of II
was offered for SAFE the price would
break TWO or three points In IS many
minutes.
In the early trading yesterday bonds
were in good demand. and the few offered
were taken AZ current figures.
Announcement was made yesterday that
the withdrawal OF Thomas J.. Hume from
the firm Of Harper & Co. had been de-
cided upon Nr. Hume has purchased
the brokerage business OF Harper & Co.

and resume the business as It was before
the formation Of the company. Mr Hume

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Bank CLearingS end Railroad Ecrnngs Shon
Gains Over 1908 and 1906.

New York. April 1e. - Dun & Co s
weekly review Of trade tomorrow viii
say:
Although the movement OF trade is
slow, It is Of large volume and steadily
in the direction OF improvement No
other Interpretation can be given OF the
records OF bank clearings. which show &
gain Of u per cent over both 1908 and 1906,
outside OF New York and the reports Of
railroad earnings for the first week OF
April. which make a gain OF 12.6 per cent
over last year
''The starting of outdoor activities under
generally seasonable spring weather i'm
parts welcome stiIlUlus and the new
building operations are a really notable
development, promising much for the
whole business situation.
In the primary market for cotton goods
the effect Of the recent heavy export busi-
ness TO China is apparent. many mills
having turned over their machinery wholly
or In part TO the production OF these
goods. While most OF the business taken
thus far has been FOR $50 sheetings. con-
siderable quantity has been reported Of
late for lighter weights. a development
which. should orders actually be placed
viii stil further strengthen the domestic
market
Commercial failures this week IN the
United States are 24S. against 249 last week,
2iS the preceding week and 262 the cor
responding week last year. Failures ia
CanadS number 20. against p last week,
q the preceding week and g last year"
The Washington herald., 1909-04-17

New York, April 16.-Bradstreet's review
OF the state Of trade tomorrow viii say:
Weather crop. and industrial reports
are stlE very irregular. rendering general
Characterization difficult Taken as a
whole. there is, however. a slightly larger
business, this being true Of retail
trade In sections where weather permits
and in bookings for fall and winter de-
livery at wholesale.
'Women's wear goods lead IN activity.
The weather has been too cold for hest
results in retail trade IN a large part
Of the spring-wheat Northwest and in
the Southwest. particularly in Texas. the
uncertain outlook for crops checks buying.
In portions of the South. and IN the East
generally. there is more confident pur-
chasing. higher prices for cotton aiding In
the former instance, while the advance
Of the season helps trade along the At
lantic seaboard.
Business on the Pacific Coast has ex-
pare slightly. particularly IN California,
where crop prospects are classed as good.
In the Central West trade at retail IS
expanding slowly and a rather better
business is reported with country Iner.
chants. but jobbing activity is not as
pronounced as II was some weeks ago.
Taken as a whole. the crop situation IS
irregular. Cold weather has retarded
seeding Of spring wheat IN the Northwest
and likewise affects crop preparation and
trade in Iowa, Nebraska, and South Da-
kota.
winter wheat has made some progress.
but the crop as a whole is backward and
needs warm growing weather"
