New demand at this time, however, is never very large, and conditions as a whole are healthy and even promising. The labor outlook in iron does not promise as well.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.—R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade to-morrow will say: In most directions the condition of general business has Improved slightly this * week. Prices of staple commodities are steady, as are most manufactured goods. Orders to manufac- turers are sustalned in volume, and that pro- nounced easy money in the interior is still stimulating business is shown by benk ex- changes at leading cities outside of New York for the week 14.2 per cent larger than in 1900 and 17.8 per cent above 16%. At New York the record is a gain of 77.8 per cent over 1900 and 373 per cent over 189). Retall trade has not declined as much as usual since the holidays. Textiles show more life. Steadiness is the chlef characteristic of the iron and steel industry. The past week has brought,no new developments and prices ar Unchanged. There is @ notable lack of new contracts covering large operations, but many | small orders are placed and mills are well ‘oc- | E:gted on old business that in most cases will moaths to complete. On this account there is no urgency about securing orders. ‘Work 1s £0 vigorously prosecuted at the fur- naces tha: demand for fuel increases and coke production in the Connellsville region expands. Coal also moves more freely at Pittsburs. There is still some uncertainty regarding the proposed tube and sheet plants, and action by the Carnegie Company is awaited with interest. Another moderate increase occurred in salt of wool at the three chief Eastern markets, ralsing the total for three weeks to 10,382,300 pounds. There is 8till a heavy loss compared with preceding years. Manufacturers’ stocks are generally considered lo Nevertheless | they buy only for immediate needs and con- tinue to take mainly the cheaper grades. Re- sults at the London auction sales were more eatisfactory than anticipated, buyers compet- | ing vigorously for the offerings, which were The raw materlal industry has been in less satistactory position, owing to depression In the yarn market, which | caused the assoclation to recommend reduction in the output by a half.
