BRADSTREET'S REVIEW
Nv Assoclsted Press

New York, March 4.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say:
 Trade and industrial reports con tinue very irregular, varying indeed, with almost every line and market re porting, but while general characteri- zation is difficult, if indeed not impos- sible, it may be said that the appare, and food trades, while noting cautious buying present about the most cheer full adyices and exhibit the chief strength, whereas many socalled basic trades, notably iron and steel. the oth- CT metals. coal and building materials, reflect the least optimistic feeling and native weakness. Even witAin these two great classifications. however, va- rying degrees of activity and strength are noted. and it is difficult to dipict except at great length the different shades of activity and price changes. Thus, in the apparel trades, the weak : ness of raw cotton has been imparted to many staple products, such as yarns. print cloths and sheetings and the un- derwear trade, dependent upon the great southern staple, also reflect some depression.
