acterization difficult. Taken as whole, there
is however, slightly larger business doing,
this being particularly true of retail trade in
sections where the weather permits and booking
for fall and winter delivery at wholesale.
Business on the Pacific coast has expanded
slightly. particularly in California In the cen
trai west retail trade is expanding slowly and a
rather better business is reported with country
merchants but jobbing activity is not as pro-
nounced as il was some weeks ago.
Industry is in a rather spotted condition.
There Is more doing in iron and steel, but
largely. 1t is claimed at the expense of prices.
While reports of immense activity In the
leather market seem rather premature, II is evil
dent that manufacturers are buying more freely.
Hides are however, rather quiet Eastern shoe
manufacturers have about come TO the end of
their orders
Business failures in the United States for the
week ending with April Is were 20l, against 22T

r. G.. Dun's weekly review Of trade tomorrow
will say: Although the movement of trade is
slow 1t is Of Iargs volume and steadily in the
direction of Improvement. In iron and steel
the structural lines continue to reflect broader
demand. contracts placed thus FAR this month
comprising a very substantial tonnage. and con-
siderable new business is also In sight. The
railroads taking advantage Of the low
prices named 10 make necessary Improvements
and extensions. while the advancing season has
stimulated building activity In many sections.
Improvement in the shoe market is steady
although the movement is quiet. Some western
and southern wholesalers have begun to place
fall orders for summer delivery.
The hide market is quiet but prices are
firm with most kinds of packers hides slightly
higher than week ago.
tsIn the primary market for cotton goods the
effect OF the recent heavy export business to
China is apparent many mills having turned

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE
Future Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO. April 16.-The wheat market was
an extremely choppy affair during the early part
ment crystallized into decided bulshness
brought about chiefly by heavy purchases of the
July option. Trade in May brisk at the
outset, leading longs being free sellers. Later
however. this option was neglected in favor OF
the more deferred futures.
lit sentiment today was created principally
by foreign adyices. Official statistics indicated
tnat the wheat movement this week from Argen-
tina and Australia was at low ebb. the ex
ports from the former country being 2, ,344 900
bushels, compared with 8, Us, 900 bushels the cor
responding time year ago.
Ihis was generally considered indica-
ton that weekly statistics next Monday would
reveal marked falling of in the worlds move
ment and In the amount on passage. A message
from Duluth claiming that the break in prices
Yesterday at Winnipeg had resulted In sales
there OF 81 boatloads of Manitoba wheat for
export also inspired additional bullish feeling
Sales of cash wheat here were limited but the
southwest reported continued brisk demand, with
prices about at the high point of the year After

the turbulent scenes of the previous session, the
market broke sharply toward the end of the first
