SLACKEN|NG SEEN
IN RETAIL TRADE
Buoyant Tone of Business
Less Distinct Than in
Previous Week.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. May "a slackenins
in the advance of retail trade during
the current week was noted today in
the weekly survey by Dun g. Brad.
street.
THE buoyant tone Of trade vas less
distinct during the week, both seasonal
factors and unfavorable weather con-
spring against a continuance Of th(
advance" it was stated.
There was a pause in the forward
movement Of retail distribution, par
ticularly in apparel, while wholesals
orders were mostly to freshen current
stocks, as the previous squirt in Sum.
mer buying failed to hold.
"Tapering operations in both the
steel and motor divisions brought a
reduction of schedules in a number Of
allied industries. and further curtail-
ment of production was reported by
some of the cotton mill groups. -"
The briskness of recent weeks was
lacking in consumer buying in most
parts of the country, but the tempo
rary slackening of sales was regarded
as normal reaction of the rising VOL
ume of trade since the first of tho
year"
1t was found that nearly all cities
reported retail sales under the total
of the week preceding; the gains over
the comparative 1885 week also were
smaller. For the country as a whole,
1t was stated, retail trade was 1 TO 8
per cent above the 1885 level.
The survey continued Following
the squirt of the week preceding, most
Of the wholesale markets turned
quieter. General activity was restrict
ed somewhat by a lack of confidence
on the part of retailers Of mems and
women's wear, most Of them postpon-
ing buying until warmer weather will
have revealed more definite trend ot
