WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Progress Toward Normal Business Conditions
Steady Say Dun and Bradstreet.
Conditions

New York, Feb. 2-R. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review Of trade tomorrow will
say:
Though progress toward normal con-
ditions OF business, activity is slow, it
is steady. In this progress the iron and
steel trade is taking the lead. and its
gain is so notable as to promise we'll for
the other branches of industry The
percentage of production to capacity is
continually increasing, and the evidences
of expansion, not only in finished pro-
ducts, but in pig iron, multiply in such
way as to have a favorable effect on
business sentiment. The important rate
decisions bring to an end a period of un-
certainty that has prevailed since the
spring of 1910.
The conditions for both cotton and
winter wheat crops are favorable. espe-
cially since the heavy rainfall in the
South and Southwest The recent read
justments in prices of important food
products, the change for the better in
the foreign trade, the easier conditions
in the money market. and the active out
look for building operations serve also TO
Increase the more optimistic feeling
which prevails in spite of the fact that
some of the factors that have retarded
business have not yet been removed.
Commercial failures this week in the
United States are 263, against 252 last
week, 276 the preceding week, and 21
the corresponding week last year. Fail
ures in Canada number so, against 10 last
week, 81 the preceding week, and IS last
year.

New York, Feb. 24-Bradstreet's re-
view of the state of trade tomorrow
will say:
Brighter, more seasonable weather
and the advance Of February to its close
has given a more active appearance to
house jobbing trade at leading markets,
and slightly improved retail trade. The
expansion. while quite marked when COM
pared with the two preceding weeks,
when weather conditions were unsettled.
has, however, been relatively slow and
cautious, and conservatism, which finds
reflection in small-lot buying, continues
the pre-eminent feature in markets for
dry goods, wearing apparel, and kindred
lines.
Aside from the seasonable openings
in wholesale millinery, which have at
tracted quite considerable trade, chief
activity now, as for some time past, has
been in lines catering to agricultural
activities, implements, seeds, fertilizers,
and similar articles being relatively most
active. Most activity in the dry goods
trade has been reported at a few large
Eastern and Western centers.
Despite a temporary check given
spring activity at the South and South
west, where cold weather has resulted in
some damage to early fruits and vege-
tables, the preparations for a large plant
ing of leading crops are well forward.
''Other industrial lines show few
changes

Boston, Feb. A-The legislative COM
mittee on taxation did what was expected
this afternoon when in executive ses-
sion 1t voted unanimously against the
proposition of Mrs. Charlotte Smith for
legislation to provide for the taxation
Of bachelors.
Mrs. smiths proposition was that every
male person thirty-five, who is unmar-
ried, shall pay an annual tax OF S to the
city or town which he happens to grace
with his single blessedness. He could
only get out Of this tax by proving to
the local assessorS that he was In some
way unfit for matriRony.
In the elaboration of her philanthropic
scheme, Mrs. Smith had further provided
that the fund so obtained should be ex-
pended by the overseers of the poor in
the various cities and towns '1or the
support of deserving spinsters who have
passed or are believed to have passed
