BRADSTREET and Dun
REPORT ON BUSINESS
Effects Of Holiday Trade Be-
ginning to Be Felt in Re-
tail Markets.

New York. Nov. 27.-Bradstreet's Sat
urday said:
S~easonabie weather has continued to
exert q salutary influence on retail
trade. holiday buying has expanded,
5obbers at a number OF centers have
done a better business In a way OF
recorders; operations In iron and steel
display more zest as the result of re-
cent heavy buying by the railroads, and
the outlook in the latter line Is quite
encouraging. On the other hand, spring
trade, speaking of it as a whole, is
still feeling the checkrein of conserva-
tive buying; prices for iron and steel
remain very low because competition
is yet In evidence; trade in larger lines
at southern points Is quiet, due prin-
cipafy, If not wholly. to the low price
of cotton, and outdoor operations are
generally waning. In fact, a strict en-
alysis of all the trends indicates that
there is considerable room for further
Improvement, and that from the view
point Of profits things are not alto
gether satisfactory. Requests for
prompt shipments are still a feature
with most orders, thus confirming the
belief that stocks do not take up much
space on the shelves Of final %purveyors.
There is a stronger tone to cotton
goods, considerable buying which has
taken place with manufacturers and
cutters figuring in h movement.
r. G.. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of
trade today says:
Both in business confidence and in
volume of business transactions the
situation continuss@to improve thsG
gain is very gradual and conservative,
and there Is little disposition to go be-
yond satisfaction of immediate wants;
but 1t is a gain and the significant thing
is that this improvement has now beer
| maintained for several weeks. The ces-
60 finn cf 7jctJrp1Snc y trtnrnntiNnn1 1if-
ficulties, the easier conditions Of the in
ternatienal money markets, the growing
conviction that domestic economic
problems are shaping themselves for the
better, and the pressing need of doing
something to replenish depleted stocks,
all contribute to the Improvement
which is being achieved. A notable de-
~velopnent is the more active buying Of
rails, cars and other equipment by the
railroads, a fact which imparts a de-
cidedly better. feeling in the iron and
steel and the supply trade. With their
244, 600 miles of track the railroads, by
the volume of their purchases. affect
acutely, for improvement or injury, the
whole industrial situation. The yarn
markets are stendier, a fairly broad
movement of merchandise being shown
and in the New England wool market
transfers aggregate 100000 or 4,000,-
600 pounds for the week and prices
trend higher.
Footwear conditions improve as the
season advances, and the influx Of or
