Dun’s Weekly Review Reports 9. Hope-
ful Condition of Trade.
GOTTON’S CONTINUED RISE.
There Is Nothing to Support 11: Except
the Fear That the Next Crop Will
Be Short—Wheat Yields Again.
The Failures of the Week.
NEW YORK. April 13. ——R. G. Dun &
Co. ’s weekly review of trade says:
Progress ‘ toward better business con-
tinues, but it is slow and meets many ob-
staclcs. In speculative aspects and in
wholesale demand for goods the week shows
improvement. ' Money markets are undis-
turbed and a little more active. But among
the chief obstacles is the anxiety of opera-
tives to secure better wages, even while
many manufacturing works are running
without profit and others at the risk of
loss. In a number of establishments better
wages have been conceded, thus increasing
the purchasing power of the people, but
strikes have largely overbalanced settle- _
ments, several of importance having thrown
about 12,000 Workers out of employment
this week. . .
Retail trade has improved on the whole
since March, as the approach of Easter
brings more business, but distribution to in-
dividual consumers still lags behind pur-
chases of jobbers and. such demand for
products as springs from building and
other investments looking into the future.
Crop prospects will greatly affect the
course of trade for some months. and the
government report has little influence to
discourage. For consumers the Worst fea-
ture is the rapid advance in meats.
For the first time in a long period prices
of commodities average a shade higher
than a year ago, and in Great Britain
also, owing to different causes, a slight
advance occurred in March. On both sides
of the ocean the lowest level ever known
may naturally be followed by some rise.
Cotton is on both sides more buoyant than
anything else except meats and petroleum
here. crude oil ' having risen to $1.80, the
highest price for over 17 years.
The Advance In Cotton.
Nothing supports the advance of an
eighth in cotton the past week except the
impression that the next crop will be short,
for receipts are large, and about 150,-
000 bales more than the largest crop ever
groWn have already come into sight this
year. Wheat has yielded nearly a cent, al-
though Atlantic exports for two weeks
have been 3, 706,643 bushels, flour includ-
ed, against 3,599,688 last year, with west-
ern receipts only 2,588,467 against 4,223,-
434 last year. Receipts of corn are about
half and exports about a fifth of last year’s. '
Decrease in receipt of cattle is exaggerated,
659,406 having arrived at Chicago against
789, 543 to date last year, and the preva-
lent opinion is that western packers are
helping nature to some extent.
Domestic trade shown by payments
through clearing houses is 7.9 per cent
larger than last year, but 20.2 per cent
smaller than in 1893. About this time two
years ago retail business began to drop of!
and mills to close, but half the difference
in volume of business is due to the fall in
prices. Railroad earnings for the first
week of April show an increase less than
1 per cent over last year, and returns cov-
ering 385,116,527 within the United States
for March were 12.1 per cent less than in
1893, while our returns covering $49,'961,- .
506 for February are 13. 1 per cent less than
in 1893. Tonnage from Chicago the first
week of April was 31,361 smaller than last
year, but a slight increase is seen at other
points. The last week for exports was es—
pecially good, showing an increase of 18
per cent, but March returns for the prin-
cipal products show a decrease of $5,253.-
481, or 11.5 per cent, against an increase
of 10 per cent in imports at New York.
The output of pig iron April 1 was 158,-
132 tons weekly, practically the same as
March 1, with adecrease of 1,080 tons in
unsold stocks during the month. Doubt-
less heavy stocks were taken up by manu‘
facturers in anticipation of a strike in coke
works, but the apparent consumption is
larger than at any other time fer some
months, and only a sixth less than in
March, 1892.
Iron Products.
Bessemer iron has advanced a little fur—
ther to $10.75 at Pittsburg, but there is
no change whatever in prices of finished
products during the week, and while the
demand continues good for structural
forms and alittle better for bar the marked
decrease in demand for wire, owing to the
scant purchases of farmers for fencing,
affects the outlook. It seems probable that
pig iron must recede unless a. larger de-
mand for finished products is soon devel-
oped. The shoe manufacture continues to
lead _all great industries with shipments
over 20 per cent larger in number of cases
than a year ago, though not in value,
while orders have been more liberal at ad-
vanced prices. '
Sales of wool are particularly interest-
ing, amounting for the week to 6,030,200
pounds and for five weeks previous to 25,-
621,200 against 25, 277, 676 in the same
weeks of 1892. In brief, sales are close to
the quantity required for a full consump-
tion, and the delay in placing orders and
the lateness of the season make the pro-
portion of mills at work larger than usual.
N o improvement in prices appears, and
domestic wool does not respond to' recent
advances in foreign markets. The low
price encourages manufacturers to com—
pete much more vigorously with foreign
goods of many kinds than they had ex-
pected. and for the medium and cheaper
grades of goods they have more than the
usual demand because purchases of con-
sumers have for two years been compara-
tively small. ~
Money is easier, and supplies are again
coming from the interior, while foreign
exchange has been at the exporting
point. More commercial paper is now
oflering, principally in dry goods, though
the amount is not large. Failures for the
Week were 207 in the United States against
218 last year and 27 in Canada against
34 last year. '
