DUN'S REVIEW

New York, Dec. 15.-Dun's today
says
Only in the retail reid have storms
and low temperatures been helpful to
business and 1t Is of less general Inn
portance that demands for seasonable
commodities have been accelerated and
augmented than that transportation
problems have been aggravated and
manufacturing still further impeded.
Through the vigorous and unusual
measures taken to better conditions,
partial relief from the freight conges-
ton was indicated before real winter
weather set in over a wide area, but
since then the situation has become
more troublesome and not a few plants
have been forced to shut down alto
gethcr or apparently reduce operations
because of the added difficulties of OBJ
tanning fuel. The stoppage or curtail-
ment of work is especially unfortunate
at n time when the pressure for sup
plies of various materials and mer-
chandise for the government and other
interests is so great and in branches
where regular buying has diminished
the change is not unwelcome with pro-
ducers hampered as they are. That
strictly civilian trade. while not so
consnicuously active as previously, re-
mains large in the aggregate, reports
make clear and Christmas shopping
has started in a way foreshadowing ia
vorable results on the whole. But hol-
iday purchases in most instances are
both more conservative and dfscrimi-
mating than last year and emphasize
the movement toward economy which
has grown out of the war and which is
spreading about in all sections.

 The Mardi Gras lasted until half pa st three in the morning and there were few who did not stay to the fin- ish. Those in attendance say that the A.

Information over the phone from Taylor on Sunday was to the effect that natives in the Good Hope district about three weeks ago saw a white man staggering along. They did not ascertain who he was nor did two white men who also saw him. It was suggested that it might possibly have been Conrad Breeding who was lost on Thanksgiving day and that he may have wandered over the divide and found sustenance and shelter for a time in some cabin. This is thought hardly probable In view of the fact that he had bee lost about five weeks. However. the clue, hopeless as it seems. will be followed on the chance that it may have been Breeding. He was a man of tremendous vitality and would not give up to the elements without a terrific struggle, it is said by those who knew him well.

I garments were of tin, afterwards ap- l peared as a ship wrecked mariner. And so it went. An observer could 1 hardly take it all in. In fact nearly cony as spectators remained there till the very end. so engrossed were they ia the proceedings.
 The committee had searched the town for novelties with which to amuse the jewellers. They bought all e..e balloons In town, all the confetti, all the snake twirles, all the serpen- tine streamers, and all the toy horns and they wanted other things they could not get.
 The ordinary dances were intespers- ed with specialties. There was the beautiful "A. B. dance' with "A. B." in illumination on the stage with the flag, pick, shovel, gold pan and altar; the snow dance when showers of con- fetti were sent from the balconies and srrinkled from all directions; the ser pentine streams were launched from above and from all sides; the balloon dance when every lady masquer was distinguished by red or green toy globe that bobbed as she gid d along; the noisy" dance when the little horns and snake twirlers almost dr rowned the music from the orches- tra; and every now and then there Was a moonlight dance, or a number lnder the changing colors of the spot light. Aefer a while the serpentlne streams and confetti became so thick or the floor that slender. silkcn cov- cred ankles often were almost buried in the clinging ta1gle.
