Bradstreet's on Trade. # * NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—Bradstreet's to-mor- row Will say: Trade advices, as reflected in Bradstreet's, exhibits more {rregularity, caused by weather conditions or proceedings from the early stage of the season. That a considerable spring business has al- ready been’ booked is indicated by the heavy shipments of merchandise. Speculation is like- ‘wise exhibiting a broadening tendency, but here also some irregularity is manifested on:ewing of counter-currents technical market condi- tions. The growing ease of money is a reflec tion of previously reported €ood conditions fol- lowing active trade in the late months of last year.

PR T e NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—R. G. Dun & Co. weekly review of trade to-morrow will say: With the unprecedented holiday business ended, transporting facilities are more nearly adequate for regular requirSments. Merchand- ise moves to consumers more promptly and in the iron region there is less interruption to work because of insufficient fuel.. Reports “of unfavorable weather in winter wheat regions stimulated prices and there was further support in the general resumption of activity at flour mills, together with added In- quiry ‘for foreign account. Total exports of wheat from the United States for the week, flour _included, were 4,179,262 bushels, which fell short of the unusually free outgo of 50,795 bushels a year ago, but compare most satisfactorily considering the 10 per cent higher prices now prevailing. The combina- tion of many of the supporting influences took quotations above the highest point last year. Corn was fairly well held in sympathy with wheat, ‘but some soft spots developed as was natural in view of the fact that the price is now more than 50 per cent higher than a year ago, while Atlantic exports for the week Wwere 212,941 bushels, against 4,543,142 in 1901 Failures for the week numbered 373 in the United States against 324 last year, and 27 in Canada, against 37 last year. * New York Grain and Produce. * # NEW YORK, Jan, 10.—FLOUR—Recelpts, 24,272 barrels; exports, 3614 barrels.

Yesterday's market was depressed over the same nervousness and when the cable list was lower at the opening long holders let go in large quantities. The bulk of the business was done early and was mostly on the selling side. May opened % @%c to lac lower at 83lic to 833c, and then rallied on buying orders at times, and it was not long before it sold at S3c. Trade grew somewhat quiet for a time, but continued reports of the dry, critical condi- tion of the winter wheat districts and the rumor that the crop report would be only for the yield per acre, leaving traders to guess at the number of acres,’ brought a fair reaction. May sold back to Si%c and closed steady, un- changed at S3%83%c. Corn had much the same market as wheat in sympathy with that cereal. May closed a shade higher at 66lc. Oats were somewhat independent of the sit- uation in the other pits, though the weakness had a depressing effect.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs. Another decline in Esgs is noted. The Ex- change reduced. its quotations for ranch to 26 @2Sc, and the street reported 20c about the best ‘price obtainable, though some small sales at 30c were made. Everybody is afraid to hoid the goods, and.some dealers report accumulat- ing_stocks. "cheen continues topheavy under large sup- plies. [ The feeling in Butter is rather firm than otherwise, as stocks of the best creameries are light, and were it not for the: large lines of storage goods still available better prices would probably now be quoted. Humboldt receipts are falling off, but those from Marin are in- creasing, so the net situation remains about the same. Receipts were 22,100 pounds of Butter, — pounds of Eastern Butter, 355 cases of Egas, 189 cases of Eastern Eggs, pounds_of California Cheese and —— pounds of Oregon Cheese.
