weekly Review of Trade

NEW YORK, May Pr. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
Changes I'm the business situation are in the
line of moderate Improvement. Crop prospects
are better, and this was plainly indicated by
the downward tendency of prices. Visible i'm
provement is taking place in the iron and steel
iron and for finished nreduets especialIv IN aari
cultural and structural lines. Demand from rail-
roads for equipment is somewhat restricted by
the uncertainty regarding freight rates, yet some
good business in rolling stock is regarded
tain and rails have been taken in moderate
amounts.
Buying of cotton goods is limited, and mills
are still indisposed to accept long contracts
Curtailment is growing as the crop season ad
vances. The trend of trade is toward improve
ment, however In woolens and worsteds stock
goods are being offered at concessions and mills
fall lines not under order.
Trade in footwear continues slow and unsat-
isfactory. large jobbers throughout the country
having failed to follow up initial purchases by
supplementary buying because curtailment Of
production is necessity. The question of price
present traffic Leather is generally inactive
Pronounced dullness continues TO rule throughout
the hide market"
NEW YORK, May Bradstreet's tomorrow
will say:
..Quiet still rules in trade and many lines of
industry. while speculation, except in grain,
seems IN a waiting stage pending clearer views
of ultimate crop and price changes. Relatively.
the most activity in the jobbing trade is centered
In meeting current demands, and fall business
still lacks form.
Retail trade has shown some gain at leading
western markets, but is still classed as below
expectations. Unseasonably cool weather is
commonly assigned as the cause for backward
trade, but there are still in evidence signs that
uncertainty as TO prices holds back future COM
mitments.
Relatively the best trade reports come from
the northwest, but there is rather doing at
some western markets. though cool, wet weather
was a bar to activity AT most cities. Eastern
advices are of slight gains in some lines, but of
quiet character whole.
'sThere is continuance of the rather more
cheerful feeling noted last week In iron and
steel. based on recognition of the effect of shut
downs upon crude production and the apparent
putting into effect of similar measures in the
leading textile lines.

TR LIGHT
IN WALL STREET

NEW YORK, May 27.-The eve
of a three days holiday on the
stock exchange is never conducive
to much activity. The stock mar
ket, besides, has been lapsing to-
ward dullness and neglect by a
process of uncertain and narrow
ing fluctuations, which are char
acteristic of the market when In
purely professional hands.
The activity of the first hour
was due to rumor Of the illness
of J. p Morgan, which originated
in Chicago. Morgan is in Paris
and was in cable communication
today with business associates in
New York. The circulation of
false rumors is held generally to
signify activity by a bear party.
The subtlety of speculation is
capable. however, of stimulating
bear activity for the purpose of
inviting supporting orders by in
terested powers, which may thus
facilitate desired liquidation.
Whatever the real purpose of the
early operations, they were dis
continued soon and the proceed
ings for the rest of the day were
almost devoid of interest.
The lack of response to the
formal announcement of the sale
of St Paul bonds in France to the
amount of 25o,oOo.o00 francs
brought out some professions of
disappointment The fact need not
cause surprise when it was con-
sidered that this bond sale had
been a constant subject of. stock
market discussion and of stock
market influence for weeks.
The mere fact that news OF the
transaction was allowed to be-
come public at so early a stage of
the negotiations affords a broad
that it was sought to make of the
incident.
The speculative effect of it was
found to be exhausted.
The rout of the bull party in
wheat is expected to have impor-
tant results, If it has served to
bring about natural conditions in
that market. The awakening of
export demand will be watched
for with interest.
The course of the cotton mar
ket is equally interesting to the
stock market element. The fact
that the Fall River cotton mills
will close down all next week
shows the bearing of the cotton
market position on the general in
dustrial situation.
The Slightly frmer tone of the
money market this week lends in
terest TO the showing to be made
by the bank statement to be pub
lished while the stock exchange
is in recess. More than $1,000.O00
has gone out to Canada this week
and the movement in the interior
has been against New York. While
the movement from the interior
has fallen off considerably, it has
been sufficient to indicate a sub
stantial cash gain for the banks.
Bonds were steady. Total sales
(par value). S1.285.0oO
United States bonds. were un-
changed from last weeks prices

Corporations Should File Reports.

Little Rock, Feb. 23. - Less than a week now remains for the corporations of Arkansas to file their annual reports with Reve- nue Collector F. w. Tucker, in accordance with the recently passed Federal law, and the de linquentS will be liable to fine of from $1 ,000 to S10,00O. Many are coming in but Capt. Tucker believes there will be quite a number of delinquents if some of the corporations do not begin getting busy real soon. Capt. Tucker has received orders from Washington which indicate the government does not intend to give any days of grace, and will punish every offending corpora tiOn. He has been instructed to keep all of the envelopes which bring reports from corporations in order that they may show the hour the report Was mailed, and the hour received in Little Rock. In the case of any contest, these envelopes will be used as evi- dence.

Fruit Crop Injured.

Little Rock, February 23.- According to R. P. Allen, a member of the Arkansas Rail road Commission and one of the largest fruit growers of Craw- ford county, the fruit in that section, as well as all portions of Western Arkansas, was severely injured by the last freeze, and the reports sent out were not in the least exaggerated. Col. Allen says the buds on the peach trees were very little swelled, but just enough for the exceptionally cold weather to kill about threC fourths of them. Berries are also some damaged. which added to the drouth killing so many oi the vines last year, will make the crop a very short one. Col. Allen believes the prices will be high, but does not anticipate the total making up for the shortage in the yield.
