NEW YORK., Dec. 5.—The various restrie- tive Influences which have brought down the ¥olume of activity in the stock market had an @ddition to-day in the stormy weather. The Wnflmceumhul‘lhlmmmr and the small pumber of room traders had the market much to themselves to-day, as they ‘were alinost fsolated by the cutting off of wire communication with the outside world. As & comsequence the net result of the day’s trading ‘was extremely small. The selling by room traders during the early part of the day made some considerable inroads upon prices, but in the absence of outside response, and not desir- ing to remain uncoverc over night, they re- bought the stocks sold early, causing a general pecovery. The market was really without sig- nificance. So fer as the sentiment of the duy ‘Wwas manifested, the anxiety over the future of the money market was still evident. The forecast of the weekly mk statement fully Justified this feeling. The banks ha ently lost nearly $7,000,000 from cash re- It 'Illl be remembered serves during the weck. that last week's loss was understated in the bank statement by nearly $2,000,000 by reason of tpe working of the average system of com- putation. The movement of currency has been in favor of the interior azain to the extent of nearly $600,000, including the deposits at the Bub-Treasury for teiegraphic transfer to the interior. The balance of the loss is made up of customs and Innern.nl revenue payments and $1,000,000 exported to South America. %6 he “usval obecurity roparding. the. ‘chanemy in the loan item of the banks. There has been nothing in the stock market to indjcate extensive liquidation of loans. Tension in the time money market hes a) grown dur- ing the week, but call joan rates showed a tengency to relax to-day. This is partly due 1o the lightness of the demand.

L A - Bradstreet’s on Trade. \l * NEW YORK, Dec. 5.—Bradstreet's to-mor- row will ‘say: | Beasonable winter weather, hitherto corspic- ugusly lacking, has come very much into evidence this wesk, with the result of ex- pancing retail trade in winter goods, rubbers and wearing apparel generally. Killing frosts have about put a period to the marvelous fall season of 1902, and in the South the cotton crop may be eald to be made, so far as fur- ther growth is concerned. All the usual sea- sonable changes have about come to pass. Dairy products and produce generally are hig- er, jake navigation is about over, iron ore shipments have ended after the greatest move- ment on record, and the wheat crop has gone into winter quarters with a fair covering of snow in northern latitudes and with a very generally satistactory condition ruling through- out much of the admittedly very large acre- age. Threshing is about completed in the Northwest and farmers dispiay more wiling. ness to part with their products. The year's =pproachi end finds prices well up to the highest point in eighteen months, though meats are steadily declining on good receipts. Next to the expectations partly realized that an enormous holiday business will be done the most notable feature is the practical unanimity of cpinion that a large spring trade is in prospect. Wool Is strong and active and still tends higher while the manufacturers are busy on orders. Shoes are in better demand at retall and with jobbers, but manufacturers are quiet as yet. Hides are rather weaker, as the re- ceipts increase, but desirable leather is firmly held. Iron trade conditions are quieter. Tin and copper are stronger. Business failures in the United States for the week number 185, as against 182 last week, and 257 in this week last year. ‘Wheat (mcludlnz flour) exports for the week ending December 4 aggregate 5,774,400 bushels, 4,179,063 bushels last week, 4,604,846 els in_ this week last year and 8,432,150 bushels in 1600. Wheat exports since July 1 aggregate 116, 748,440 bushels, against 192,428,075 bushels 1ast seascn. - SR P RS AL TR Dun’s Review of Trade. I R S B B L D B NEW YORK, Dec. 5.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s Weekly Review to-morrow will say: Aside from the interruption to retail trade in winter goods at many points by unseason- able weather business activity continues in excess of previous years, and it is probable that all the postponed trade will be made up, now that low temperature has become gen: eral.
