WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Dun and Bradstreet Show Conditions Generally
Satisfactory and Holiday Trade Good.

New York, Dec. l5.-R. G. Duns weekly
report of trade will say tomorrow, in
part:
The bctterment in industrial and trade
conditions, signs of which have been visi-
BILE to close observers for two months,
has now become plain to all. and is re-
feCted by the expansion in bank clear
ings and railroad earnings, the big uplift
in the iron and steel trade, the advance
in copper, the increased activity in dry
goods. the brisker demand for money. and
in the confidence inspired by the record
breaking cotton crop of upward of l5,-
OGHOOO bales
There is no disposition to minimize
men are disposed to move ahead in spite
draws to a close is so much more en-
cuuraging as to be the years most con-
spiCuous development. The holiday trade
is notably active in all the large cities.
The Improvement in iron and steel grows
steadily, and is accompanied with ad-
vanCes in prices.
The outlook for the new year is ex-
ceedingly promising. In the dry goods
trade the most notable development is
the betterment in wOolens and wOrsteds.
Silks are also stronger.
Leather is dull, but prices firm.
The cotton goods markets are still in
the process of readjUstment to lower raw
material, and buyers are inclined to cover
their requirements moderately. Jobbers
are buying domestic bleached cottons and
staple cOlored goods

By THOMAS c. sHoTwELL.

New York. Dec. 15.-Aside from the
sharp recovery in the market led by
Steel and Reading late in the day, the
most important development in Wall
street to-day was discovery that Thomas
F. Ryan had decided to retire from all
tobacco companies and had disposed
of his interest in tobacco stocks to bank
ers who have always been identified with
the so-calIed Morgan group. American
Tobacco touched a new high record on
the curb early in the day at 5S5, broke
20 points and recovered half the loss.
United Cigar Stores had a bad break
and sharp recovery as did also British
American Tobacco. Public transactions
in these stocks were heavy but were
as nothing compared with the important
deals in the various stocks made pri-
vately. Formal announcement OF Mr..
Ryan's retirement will be made from
time to time as the subsidiary companies
are reoTganized. Wall street seemed to
think Ryans retirement was an i'm
portant and buIlish factor.
Copper stocks were prominent through
out the day. Amalgamated selling at
a high record price for the movement.

Ky of the market for the metal and this
is encouraging speculation in the shares
which have been neglected for many

New York. Dec. 15.-Bradstreets week
ly review:
Two features stand out prominently in
the weeks trade news, the admittedly
active holiday trade at most leading
points and the undeniably better under
tone in iron and steel. price advances be-
ing significant in connection with finished
steel. On the other hand, trade in other
I!nes has receded a little
The week has not been an entirely
favorable one for seasonabIe require
ments, underwear. clothing, and furs
having been adversely affected, first. by
high temperature in various parts Of the
country: and, secondly, by the fact that
Eiuch money is being diverted to the pur-
chase of ordinary Christmas gifts, while
Southern trades shows further unsettIe-
ment, due to very heavy rains, which
with the low price of cotton, tends to
render trade in that section anything but
satisfactory.
I'm the iron and steel lines advanced
quotations on finished goods, with in
creased operations resulting from the
very heavy orders booked, are the fea-
lures, capacity having expanded consid-
erably at most points save the East,
where mill work is not on "A par with
elsewhere. Prices on bars. sheets, and
wire are higher, but pig iron still sells
at low figures. The building trades have
been benefited by mild weather.
Leading cereal markets showed strik-
ingly little change this week.

American Tobacco Touches New High Record
Attack on So-calLed Banking Trust

imagine somebody was liquidating. This
was probably the truth and the dis
coVery of the fact undoubtedly explain
ed the sudden reversal of form in the
late trading when the stock moved
rapidly to the highest price of the day
and closed there. Reading was the
other railroad stock that showed un-
usual strength in the last hour.
The attack on the so-called banking
trust made by a member of Congress had
little effect on the market, although some
the weakness early in the day. When
Congressman begins to get his name
in the newspapers he finds that the best
method is to attack Wall street or the
MormOns. 1t all goes according to style
very much like wOmen's hats, and this
year il IS fashionable TO attack Wall
street. These politicians contend that
Wall street is OF no use 10 the country.
but their own speeches are published
proofs that Wall street is of use to these
particular politicians. Such attacks as
that of to-day are of great benefit TO the
money trust if there really is one for
they tend to prevent its disturbance by
the estimate of sane financial system
and the abolition of the dishonest market
for government bonds that is maintained
by authority of Congress.
Wall street was pleased at the bargain
obtained in State bonds. They were OBJ
tanned much lower than generally eX-
pected. The low price is due almost en-
tirely to the laundering methods of
finance prevalent at Albany.

Low-priced Publicity.

For an expense of little more than
81. the Washington Chamber of Com
merce has secured for this city the an
nual convention of the International As
soCiation of Factory Inspectors, who
plan to meet here in September, 1912. The
convention will bring to Washington ap-
prOximateIy 80 delegates who have al
ready begun a vigorous mutual public
ity plan in which Washington will
share.
All official letters of the organization
now bear the line: Meet US In Wash
ington. d. c., in 1872" This product of
publicity enterprise by the convention
committee is regarded a a potent argu-
ment against the expenditure of s., 800
a year in salaries for an official publicity
man, which, II is said, will easily total
$500 a year when the work is launched
The conventions committee has secured
a convention at cost of 81, which will
advertise Washington to fully 1000 peo-
ple. Burden of sentiment against the
publicity agent idea may yet result in
action against the plan by the Cham
her, according to members.
