IRON AND STEEL UNSETTLED Demand for Structural Lines is Indieation of Bullding Activity w——Declded hortage of ring Goods. i | EW YORK, April .—R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say Although confidence In the future I8 more ndticeable than satisfactory with present conditions, yet one by one dis- turbing elements are gradually disappear- ing. While the tariff is still under dls- cussfon and is checking full activity in industries most concerned, yet the re- ports from most of the citles show thelr trade to be in a fairly satisfactory state, the ecenters farthest removed natu- rally making the best exhibits. While the iron and steel trade is still in the unsettling process of readjustment, yet it | makes the best showing in exactly that line—the structural—which is a sign of building activity. In the primary cotton goods market the most interesting feature | of the week has been the activity in wide | and outters now showing for the time a disposition to operate freely, while manufacturers as a rule are reluctant to make contracts except at a_material ad- vance. Buyers of men's wear woolen fabrics are now going on the road, and fewer cancellations than usudl as a result of failure to deliver sample pleces in time are reported. There appears to be a de- cided shortage on spring goods, stocks on hand having been sold at full prices and in some instances commanding premiuma, The dress goods division continues to be quiet. More business is reported in yarn, but prices remain unsatisfactory. The noteworthy feature in footwear is the buying of sole leather by several large manufacturers, tracts are being placed. New BEngland salesmen on the road report an improve- ment in fall orders, and as both retall and wholesale stocks are much below nor- mal, renewed activity eannot be long de- layed. Sales of domestic packer hides for the week have aggregated between $0,000 and $65,000, prices remaining steady, with a firmer tendency. The market on'coun- try hides is weaker, while forelgn hides are firm, prices advancing slightly all around at the monthly auction sales in Paris. Tn the leather market interest cen- ters in heavy sales of sole leather, made chiefly to domestic buyers, but partly to British operators. Buyers of upper har- neas and belting stocks operate more freely. REPORT OF THE CLEARING HOUSE Transactions of the Associated Banks for the Week.
