WINTER TRADE GOOD
Holiday Selling 10 Lively a. Present
and Spring Buying Has Com
meneed to Open in Fabrics.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade said:
The year now drawing TO a close
will be notable for its harvest, the
money value of its farm products be-
ing computed at close to 100000, 900
"a record figure. This fact forms the
best possible basis for Industrial ad-
vance next year. There is, however,
little change in financial and business
sentiment, which remains conserva-
tive and cautious. The holiday trade
is, nevertheless, opening well and in
certain important centers the jobbing
trade in staple merchandise is report
ed as improving. The colder weather
has been beneficial to most merchants
and the heavy fall of snow is most sea-
sonable.
Iron and Steel.
Continued restriction of output has
not prevented steady accumulation Of
pig iron stocks, and the movement to
curtail operations is expected to be
carried still further Existing condi-
tions in the pig iron market reflect in
creased dullness and sellers are offer
ing concessions in some instances in
order to stimulate business. In struc-
tural lines, however, prospects are
quite encouraging as new construction
work will call for a substantial ton
mage of material, especially at the
west. Rail orders constantly appear
yet purchases are usually in moderate
amounts.
Demand in Fabrics.
The cotton goods and cotton yarn
markets are hampered by the difficulty
Of getting prices commensurate with
high cotton costs, and curtailment
therefore continues. Mems wear is in
a fair demand for immediate use and
recorders for spring ere not accepted
generally unless slight advances are
paid. Some small export business has
been done in cotton goods. Silks con
tinue to show improvement, but the
yarn markets rule steady and quiet
Shoes and Leather.
While there has been some improve
ment in the shoe trade, business is
considerably below normal for this
season of the year. The leather trade
continues dull and prices on most va
rieties are easy.

She claims she passed off there as his wife, and was taken by him to St. Louis and Baltimore, at which places he was treated in hos pitals. At both of these places Furth introduced her as his wife, and she was so recognized about the hospitals, claims the plaintiff. The attorneys in the case, Baldy Vinson and J. A.
