DUN&Co.'S S REPORT OF TRADE
Development Is conserVative-Larsel
PayrolIs Help-Priee Concessions
IN iron and steel.

New York, Jan 23.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Development in trade is along con
servative lines. Larger payrolls II
manufacturing centers naturally hell
retail distribution, but this is still
much restricted, though underlying
conditions are firmly maintained be
cause of reduced stocks In retailers
hands. The prospect Of change in the
customs revenue laws naturally cur
tails operations In a number of i'm
portant industries, and many enter
prises that would add materially tc
the volume of business are held IL
check until there is definite knowledge
regarding the provisions Of these laws
Continued low water restricts opera
tion Of some New England paper and
other mills In the south, trade in
wholesale lines is considerably below
normal and full resumption is not YET
In sight. The movement Of cotton
continues large and prices are firmly
maintained. In the west factories In
important Industries are still operated
short of full capacity, but additional
help is constantly employed, enlarg
Ing the output very gradually.
Quiet conditions still prevail in iron
and steel and no transactions of i'm.
portance are noted. Fair orders are
received by some of the smaller plants
but much of this business is said to be
obtained through moderate concessions
in prices. Demand from the railroads
continues unsatisfactory and such
lines remain slow.
Manufacturers OF cotton goods are
now displaying more independence
than for some time past, partly owing
to the firmness of raw material. but
principally as a result Of the marked
improvement In the China trade The
export movement 10 that country since
the beginning Of the year has been
larger in extent and covered wider
range of goods than at any time for
the past three years.
