In many respects the situation
Is more hopeful than it has

Disturbing Factors
The unfavorable developments
in the spotlight are three in mum,
Der, according to Bradstreets.
The most important is the
stock market, where uneasiness is
being caused by its failure to dis,
play any energy either in price
movements or volume.
The second factor is the steel
industry, where output has drop,
ped to IA per cent with definite
indications the rate for the next

The third factor which has
contributed to the unsettled state
of the public mind is given as
the persistence of the debt prob

Canadian Business
-, ShOUS Little Gain

The year draws to a close
with little improvement in gen.
eral trade. says the Bank of
Montreal in its current review
of Canadian trade conditions.
Retail business has felt the
spirit of Christmas buying in
a moderate way. although in the
total the turnover has been
we'll below that of a year ago.
Wholesale distribution has been
quiet. as is incidental to the
season. and commodity prices
have in many instances touched
new lows, notably in the cases
of wheat and livestock. Indeed.
farm products generally have
fallen so greatly that the pur-
chasing power of nearly one-half
the population is seriously re-
duced.

SUGAR MARKET
STABILIZED

NEW YORK, Dec. "a G.N.SD.
The sugar market appeared to
have attained at least a tenn
porarily stabilized price level dur
ing the past week. Futures closed
l point lower to l point higher
on the New York Coffee and
Sugar Exchange.
The spot raw sugar market
was maintained at around the
80 cents a pound level. Although
refiners we're not plentifully sup
piled they maintained an attitude
of indifference in anticipation of
the m O v e m e n of duty-free
sugars to the United States mar
ket.
An interesting feature in the
sugar world is the position of
Cuba which is expected to grind
100000 tons for the 1888 sea-
son. At current prices it is con-
ceded that none of the Cuban
producers can break e. IN on their
production costs.

it was placed in liquidation and alb
