HEALTHY SIGNS.

The signs of the times, relating to
business are regarded as stimulative,
suggestive of activity, confidence and
energy. Bradstreet's in referring to
the conditions says:
The features of the week have been
a slight stimulation of retail trade by
warm, bright weather North, West
and East good progress in the plant
ing and growth of leading cereal
crops, and satisfactory developments
as regards the outlook for leading
fruit crops. The greater activity in
retail trade is reflected in little bet
ter business by jobbers, but unsea-
sonably wet and cool weather, has
checked farming operations at the
South and also made for quiet in
trade. The net result the country
over has probably been a total of
trade little different from that of the
preceding week, and bank clearings
are not materially different from
those of last week.
An epitome of iron and steel trade
conditions can readily be made. The
cut of so cents per ton in lake ore
prices, announced last Friday, has
not stimulated business, and furnaces
seem to be pretty we'll supplied for
current needs; pig iron is very dull
