The volume Of transactions is still

ports from the principal industries
and the leading cities. This measure
Of activity is more in evidence than
is the profit Of business, narrowed as
IL is by the high cost of labor and ma

is helped by the tendency to declining
prices.

Preparing for Spring.

There is more doing on spring ac-
count, but business in this respect is
still marked by conservatism, and
buyers in many lines seem disposed
to hold off because prices are not
TO their liking.
Salutary changes in the situation
are reflected in the quieting down on
speculation, especially IN securities
and cotton, from which the public
seems comparatively absent, and in
the recession of many commodity
prices.
