DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE
Brighter Outlook for Wheat Crop
Makes Better Feeling.
VOLUME OF TRADE is STILL SLOW
Funda mental Conditions Are-FaVor-
able, But Enterprises Await RE-
mOvai Of Uncertainties and
More Faith In Future.

NEW YORK, MAY b-Dun's Review Of
Trade tomorrow viii say:
The brighter outlook for the wheat crop
is responsible FOR a better feeling in bust
ness, but the volume OF trade, while
necessarily large, Is nevertheless slow,
hating and without enthusiasm. Taken
I'm the aggregate especially I'm iron and
steel and dry goods, consumption Is below
producing capacity and concessions in
irtces fall TO produce activity.
Fundamental conditions are favorable,
but enterprise continues TO wait for the
removal OF uncertainties and for that
leadership which Is born OF faith in tho
future. The export trade Is more vigor-
Gus than the domestic. because manufao-
turers, no longer findlnG the home mar
ket sufficient, are seeking outlets abroad.
General dizziness prevails I'm the pig iron
market and advances from Pittsburg in
dictate new business in finished lines and
on smaller scale.
Railroad buying continues spasmodlc and
one mill has closed down for NAV, but
In the structural division conditions are
more satisfactory.
Curtailment is the order In cotton goods
while woolens are affected by tariff agita-
ton.
The shoe trade is fair. but not up TO
high-water mark. The mail order houses
complain OF reduced orders. The retail
trade does not hold the improvement re-
sulting from better weather.

SuEEF-1nere Was not much volume to
sheep and lamb trade this morning and
prices actually paid showed little i'm
proNement over those Of yesterday. About
eight doubles Of stock arrived, Including
choice wooded lambs shorn lambs and
shorn ewes. As compared With yesterday
the general market ruled uuotably strong
est price noted In many days. $3.50. and
shorn westerns moved around SA15. OF
ferings Of mutton sheep were even more
limited than lamb shipments but one CON
signment OF shorn ewes changed hands at
SS. The wether and yearlinR branches
of the market were practically barren.
Daily receipts this week give a total OF
about GOOO head, we'll up to seasonable
average. Lambs made up the bulk. a
condition Of long STANDING and shorn and
wooded strings were about evenly divided
Business in various classes Of sheep on
most DAYS was hardly large enough TO
properly try out the scale OF values.
Demand lately has had much better
edge than last week and the entire trade
is closing strong to unevenly higher Good
lambs, both wooded and shorn claim the
long end Of any advance. present prices
appearing, 15de5c above quotations a week
ago. Sheep of all kinds range from strong
TO possibly l5c higher In spots for the
week These margins fail to do full jus
tice to conditions, however as improvement
is best reflected by more active inquiry.

DISPOSITION.

CATTLE-Receipts of cattle this morning
we're very light as usual on a Friday, and
as a matter of fact, there were hardly
enough cattle Of any one kind in sight to
really make market. The trade was in
about the same condition as usual on a
Friday, there being an entire absence of
any new or especially interesting features.
What few beef steers there we're in sight
were generally disposed OF by 10 o'clock in
the morning, although the trade was at no
time active. Prices paid were, in the main,
steady with yesterday, there not being
enough change to quote.
The better grades OF cows and heifers
we're in fair demand and they also sold at
steady prices. Inferior kinds were a little
slow and the market was dull ana weak on
that kind.
There were no stockers and feeders in
80. of any consequence and not enough
along that line to really make a market
FOR the week light and handy-weight
beeves and the best heavies are around l0c
higher than at last weeks close, with
other grades about steady. Cows and heif-
are fully steady for the week, with
good light heifers possibly a little stronger
Bulls have not shown much change and
they are at least steady and possibly
strong In spots Stockers and feeders
have been in light supply and light de-
mand, with prices anywhere from weak
to lOq15c lower.

NEW YORK. May 5-Trading In stocks
assumed no well defined trend today and
the market was hesitatinR with sever al
diverse movements. There was an absenc
OF sustained selling pressure which unset
prices yesterday and the short interest
seemed to he more concerned about covor-

the lower levels established yesterday and
az the opening stocks were quickly forced

prices accordingly fluctuated within a

the day as q rule were unimpor ant.
Although trading In tonds fell back from
yesterdays large figures the market wa
active and prices In some issues made
further advances
Amalgamated copper was the strong
feature Of the late part of the session. 4
FACTOR contributory TO the strength OF this

BRADsTREET's REVIEW or TRADE
Trade and Industry Remains Quiet
with Less Activity,

with Less Activity.
NEW YORK, May 5.-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say:
Trade and industry remains quiet with
less activity than last week Cool weather
with frosts. rains or snow north. east and
west. and excessive moisture south, have
made for quiet In retail lines and retarded
crop growth or preparation.
Recorder business I'm wearing apparel and
spring goods has been checked by back
ward retail demand. while futures are
affected by crop and tariff uncertainties.
Lowered prices for manufactured goods
have evoked some response, but not enough
to remove the impression that stocks are
larger than anticipated
Industry has been quietcr notably In
building, because Of sporadic strikes. still
May ! has brought less than expected
disturbances. Iron and steel have been
quieter with a slowing down of output
More furnaces will be blown out next week
Business failures In the United states for
the week ending May were 2Si against
2i0 last week
Business failures in Canada for the week
number twenty-siX with twenty-SiN last
week and eighteen in the corresponding
week of last year
Wheat including flour, exports from the
United States and Canada for the week
ending May 4 aggregate i9A.327 bushels
against 1885 666 last week and l.S54010 this
week last year.
Corn exports for the week are 275 o59
bushels against 1857 last week and 205,9i3
in 1910.
