WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Reports Irregular and Generalization Therefore
Rather Difficult

New York. Feb. 25.-R. G. Dun & Co. 5
review tomorrow will say;
Business conditions vary SO widely In
one section from another and in one
trade from another, that a generalization
broad enough for the situation as whole
is difficult Yet. making due allowance
for the effect of the severe weather in
certain parts of the country, for the in
fiuence upon financial confidence of pO-
litical uncertainties. and for the eonse-
quences of speculative reaction It appears
that the volume of trade continues very
large and the outlook for the spring Is
IN no small degree better than 1t was
two weeks ago.
"The reports from the iron and steel
trade are. on the whole. satisfactory,
an improving demand by the railroads
contributing. among other things, 10 a
better feeling In the dry goods trade
jobbers are doing a business ranging, In
different sections OF the country, from
20 per cent below normal TO 10 per cent
above normal The railroads are not
only buying more freely OF necessary sup
plies. but their traffic during the first
two weeks OF February increased ISL per
cent.
1T is too early as yet to obtain def
mite estimates upon the crop outlook.
The heavy fall of snow IN many parts
Of the country is considered favorable for
the crops. yet there are some reports OF
injury to winter wheat
Commercial failures this week in the
United States are POI against 26T last
week. $50 the preceding week, and 20 the
corresponding week last year. Failures
In Canada number q. against 80 last
week. AZ the preceding week. and 81 last
year"

WALL STREET NEWS
Market Dull; Dealings Are
Heavier Than Thursday.
STEEL COMMON IS STRONG
Pan Handle Shares show Advance,
Based Probably on the Fact that
PennSy Is Making Large SubscriD-
tiOns-FaII In Price of Silver ia
London Has Little Eject.

New York. Feb. 25.-Stock dealings were
greater to-day than they were yesterday
or on any previous day IN the week, but
the security market itself. especially in
the afternoon. was again deadly dull In
the morning hours the market was a little
more active comparatively, and in the
first few minutes Of trading a higher
range Of prices was generally recorded
than any recently shown; but later on
whatever spirit there was In the market
substantially subsidized. and in the main
proft-taking sales governed all move
ments OF prices.
United States Steel common stock was
a conspicuous exception 10 the main tend
ency, but even here the net advance was
triiing. Another comparatively large ad-
vance was also scored by the Pan Handle
shares, for which no other reason could
be found than the oft quoted fact that the
Pennsylvania company is about 10 make
a large subscription at par 10 the shares
OF the Pan Handle Company. these being.
OF course those Of the Pennsylvania
leading subordinate organization. The
general feeling is that this particular
stock is one that has long been subject to
market differentiation
Market Not Resilient.
A receding tendency was obvious in
the Louisville and Nashville and Atlantic
Coast Line stocks. which were so notably
strong yesterday, and the security market
IN the main, II firm, was still far from
being resilient. It must be confessed
that the news of the day was hardly such
as to result In any other than such trivial
fluctuations in prices as were in fact wit
messed.
The Atchison Railway Company's state
ment for January was admittedly IN
favorable, showing & gross decrease OF
S5ll,o0o. changed into a net decrease Of
S1.062.000. Cause OF this was the hard
weather of the month, which inevitably
increased railway operating expense.
A striking fall in the price OF silver in
the London market. due to an increased
tax on imports of silver by the Indian
government, received little attention here,
although it possibly caused some slight
pressure upon the American Smelling and
Refining shares.
Owing to the known plethora of money
the weekly band statement cuts very
little figure nowadays as a market in
fiuence. All indications are, nevertheless,
that tO-morrow's bank return will show
a heavy loss IN cash, which, with a pos
sible large Increase in loans, may result
in & relatively large decrease In the bank
surplus.
