CHICAGO MARKETS. i CHICAGO, Irr., March 13.—Yesterday after- noon’s curb on wheat was weak, with selling of “long” wheat in small lots taking place. The opening this morning was with all the depression remaining, and numerous stop orders were exe- cated at the decline. Duringtte morning there was a moderate rally, but it was as a result of covering by “shoris” and not of buying for an ad- vance. Itisagreed to byall classes with few ex- 8-crown London c.

Dun & Co. will say to-morrow in their weekly review of trade: Failures for the week have been 300 in the United' States against 266 last year, and 60 in | Canada against 57 last year. Waiting Is still therule. Large hopes, but little | actual business explains the strength of some markets and the weakness of others. Thow far | there is a decided increase in the demand for boots | and shoes secured by considerable concessions price, but inh other branches of trade concessions are made in vain or are not made. Meanwhile. it is encouraging to know that one of the most im- portant business interests has realized definite | improvement. | 'S REVIEW OF TRADE. The insurance companies, of which returns are giver: in detail this week, show a larger business and larger income than ever before,and alsos remarkable soundness of mortgage loaus and other invesiments. As prices about February 21 wera on the whole the lowest ever known in this country consider- able space is given this week to comparison of quotations in the most impprtant branches of | manufacture which show the extent of the reaction since the rise last fall. Tt Is especially notewortby that prices of materials have varied quite differ- ently from prices of manufactured products. Thus cotton is 27.6 per cent higher than a year Ago, but cotton goods average only 10.7 per cent. Wool s but 5.3 per cent_higher than a year ago, | but woolen goods are on the whole but 4 per cent lower. Pig iron is only 17 per cent Ligher than a vear ago, while finished products of iron and steel average 45 per cent ligher. Boots and shoes are practically o higher than & year ago, while leather has risen 11.5 per cent, and_bides at the moment are only 2.2 per cent higher. '\ hese comparisons are important because they disclose something of the grave dislocation of prices which inadequate consumption and combinations have produced. The output of pigiron March I was 189,583 tons weekly, against 198,599 February 1,but the un- s01d s°ocks have risen 69,764 tons- during the past month, or 17,441 weekly, and_the unsold st0cks of the great ste¢l companies are not included. There is reason o believe that actual consumption is still at least 10 per cent smaller than the produc- tion of pig, and the price of Bessemer at Pittsburg has again declined siiziitly to $12 25, with excep- tienally large sales below that figure. Prices of finished producis are not quotably lower, althoneh all markets are weak in tone. Of the minor me:- als copper is in moderate demand at 11.12¢, aud there1s more movement in tin at 13.4c, while lead is slightly weaker at. 3.15c. T es are weak, | in part because of light aemand. Cotton goods sell but slowly, notwithstanding | recent reductions in price, and ‘the enormous ac- | eumulation of unsold siocks causes apprehensions in many quarters. In woolens the demand is very | largely for low-grade goods, and fierce competition affects the prices of the better grades materially. In cigy worstecs Lae manutacture has been so far overdone that stoppage of some most important orks is considered not impossible. Sales of wool he three chief markets are the smallest in five years. Prices are still maintained, with decrease | in_ Australian supplies. |~ The market for wheat Is weaker, with no better reason than the Government report of wheat in farmers’ hands, which is altogether out of keeping | with the Government estimate of & yerr ago, and | yet is probably more nearly correct. Western re- | ceipts sull exceed last year's, and for two weeks | have been 4,567,392, against 3,636,715 last year, | while the Atlantic exports, flour includea, this week, a little smaller than a year #go, have been { for vwo weeks 2,921,097, against 3,510,152 last T, Corn is a shade firmer, without apparent reason, andcotton gainid a sixteenth. aithough the pros: pect of the yield this year is at least as good as it | has been at any time. The stock market bus not been much changed. BANK (}LEA‘KINGS.

COAL—Harrison’s circular says: “During the week there have been twelve arrivals: from the northern collieries 24,997 tons of Coal, from Aus- tralia 8391 tons, from New York 200 ‘tons. Job- bers and retailers are complaining of the stagnancy of trade, as since our SNOWStOrm Orders are coming in very slowly, hence there is quite an accumula- tion of British Columbia Coal in yard, which must lead eventually to diminishing their imports, as they are now tuxing their yard room. The demand for steam uses holds up, and cargoes on arrival are delivered to consumers direct from ship's side. Each week we hear of some new source of supply whence cheap fuel will find its way Lo our market: these promises do not materialize, as the cost of production added to the transporiation is Invari- ably in excess of pencil calculation. Freights from Au:v.nlu‘ are beiug marked up, now making the coat of Colonial imports fully 1CX¥ higher than prices named in January, and unless outward grain freizhts improve still higher quotations will rule. Hesides, the 1. o. b. colliery prices have been cut so fine in Australia that it is generally believed a bigher cost muy be namied In the near future.
