April 4—R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade to-morrow will say: Labor controversies continue to be the only | seridusly disturbing events in the industrial | world, and while many disagreements have | been premptly settled, others have appeared (o interrupt production and make manufacturers conservative about new undertakings. Retail distribution of spring wearing apparel received a check from the inclement weather in many localities, yet merchandise of most staple lines is purchased freely and collections are satis- factory at nearly all points, except the Soutn. Supplies of iron and steel do not seem in any immediate danger of overtaxing the demand. Widely diyergent views as to the crop out- look resulted in a dull market for cereals, and only small changes in prices, Wheat receipts for_the week were 2,078,999 bushels, against 2,375,135 last vear, while exports from ail | ports of the United States amounted to 3,565.- 070 bushels, compared with 4,627,607 busheis a year ago. month of March indicated a seascnabie ten- | dency downward. Dun's index number, giving | the asgregate of guotations proportionate to consumption, was $99,222 on April 1, against [$100L543 o monthy mgo. This declime of 2.3 per cent was maihly due to the higher tem- perature, which accelerated the output of gar- den and’ dairy products. !

Obio has a condition of 74, an increase of 12 points. Bradstreet's gave the exports from the United States for the week, flour included, at 4,416,917 bushels. This market was quiet and unchanged.
