NEW YORK. April 13. Bradstreet's to morrow will say: Backward Spring weather conditions hive figured considerably In distributive trade reportr this week, and In connec tion, with some wcaknet-s in prices ot leading stocks have imparted an appear ance of Irregularity to the general sit uation. Another of those downward swings in the prices of agricultural staples Is exhibited this week In slightly lowered prices for the cereals, partly because ot the bearish sentiment of Immediate sup plies and partly because of the better than expected Government crop report, which Is taken to Indicate a possible Winter wheat yield In excess of all records. The crop outlook as a whole favors the expec tation' of a large yield of- corn, and ot cotton. Corn and oats have sympathized with tho reaction in pork products, which reaction, however, has not been universal. &s shown by the fact that lard Is at the highest point reached on the present boom. Corn exports In March were three times those of a year ago in value, and for 'seven months are 7 per cent greater In value, while 22 per cent smaller In quantity. Evidences accumulate that active mis sionary work In favor of lower prices for Iron and steel Is at last bearing fruit. Prices were no lower, and stocks as a whole arc claimed to be no larger than a month ago, but steel products hare weakened noticeably during the week, bil lets showing the sharpest decline, with corresponding decreases In some othot products. The other metals show little change on the week, copper being .In con tinued good demand and Arm, while tin is speculatively weaker, and lead is strong at previous prices. Tho hardware trade returns report as a whole better, best advices coming from Western distributive centers. As'dght upward swing in cotton is to "be noted this week; and Southern mil's havo advanced prices. On the other hand, while the mills are active on old orders, new business Is reported of smaller vol ume. Some more Inquiry is noted In raw wool, without, however, affecting values Tho strength of raw sugar Is a reflection chiefly of the fact that a considerable shortage is looked for In the supplies Of cane sugar, not only In Cuba, but In the Far East. The margin between raw and refined allows of no profit at present prices. Anthracite coal Is rather weak at the decline shown from the Winter list price, but bituminous i Is strong, par ticularly on account. Wheat. Including flour, shipments for the week aggregate 2,r9G,C3 bushels, against 3.S30.936 bushels last week, and 1.SSJ.C1J bushels In the corresponding; week of ISM. Since July 1 this season the exports of wheat aggregate 173.S06.2K; bushels, against 190.33.159 last year, and 1SS.271.SS8 In 1S97-3S. Business failures for the week number 155. as compared with 1S5 In the United States last week. 2 in this week a year ago, and 215 in 1S9S. Failures In Canada were 33. as compared with 23 last week, 25 In this week a year ago. and 27 in 1S9S. THE IllOX THADC. Kerr Business In Finished Products Is Very Small. NEW YOItK. April 11 B, O. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade tomorrow will say: Iron furnaces !n blast April 11 produced 2S9.'S3 tons -weekly, against 202, Gtt tons March 1 but unsold stocks In-, creased 2230. A mistaken Inference "possi bly fatal to many In Its ccnsequence.9. Is that stocks held by consuming concerns must be running down. As they contract for their suppiles months ahead, and such supplies, whether delivered and not con sumed, or waiting their orders at fur naces, would not be reckoned in unsold stocks, the surplus owned by consumers may be heavy. New business in finished products is reported to the Iron Age from Pittsburg as "frightfully small," owing to the belief that high prices cannot be maintained, and no better report comes from Philadelphia. With No. 1 anthracite 12 lower, refined bara , and steel plates til per ton lower than In December. It can hardly be called Impossible for prices to yield, though many are so far firmly held. Pittsburg reports n number of plate mills shut down, and five Pennsylvania and Ohio furnaces havo stopped, perhaps for repairs, more than balancing five which started In March, two In Tennes see, adding 2500 tons weekly. The boot and shoe Industry also falls behind In output, and In closing some works and running many others part time, because prices are higher than retailers oeem ready to pay. A heavy wholesale business has been done In dry goods, but tho question is now whether retail distri bution will Justify it. As yet returns are not satisfactory: there is an increase, but not enough to warrant the buying from mills. Woolens and worsteds are dull, with concessions In fancies, though staples are well Bold up and are Arm. The material declines further, averaging nearly half a cent lower than April 1. There Is the same uncertainty In cotton goods, as in retail distribution, with quite as much doubt whether prices will be maintained, though the material hn hwn -i.iin .i- vanced a sixteenth In speculation. J?Iit,rxports ln March were In value J33.C9C.4jS. a gain over last year of $21 -E26.SS3. so rapidly haa Europe supplied Its needs. This enormous gain made exports of the chief staples OS.C31.S33 greater It value than in March of last year, though decreases occurred in other Items. Yet only a fraction of the gain was In cotton shipments frcm New York, leaving the other great lncrmse here to be explained by manufactured exports- mainly. In spite of the heavy balance duo on merchandise account, there has been talk of gold ex ports, and a small amount has gone to Buenos Ayres on European account. Sup plies of money aro abundant here, the banks having again gained largely. Bates are low and commercial demands narrow, and the interior is better prepared than ever before to do without aid. The exports of wheat from both coasts continue larger than last year, though much of the gain Is at Pacific ports, not directly affecting Atlantic supplies. Flour Included. Pacific exports ln two weeks have been 1.51S.25I bushels, against GC4.5C2 bushels last year, but Atlantic exports have been 3.912.S57 bushels, against 3.900. 3S0 bushels last year. In spite of ail re ports of exhaustion of supplies and injury to growing wheat. Western receipts con- - rJ!,a,?0ri.,an last year ln tw weeks 8..W.C40 bushels, against 5.SC3.C63 bushels last year. THE FIJTAXCIAI. REVIEW. XUIIroads and Industrial. Show n jSSl--?.-0 !?"Ve In'-P-ndrnllr. naTi J..nK- April " Uradstreefs fi nancial review tomorrow will fay: t,a nrTr dveIPeJ a tendency on the fndiL, 6 P11 "toe "st and leading l i ' E,?Cks to move w"h "ore or less Independence of each other. In the present week this has become much mow SSSn deC,?.ed buy:nB "fength SS2S .C I rn",?aQ 3tsocks- 'a"'ns to check the heavy liquidation In the steel stock, while the latter movement se-m to parts of the market. The local tract on groups also contributed to the Irrecularltr of the situation by developing ameaure of strength on their own account. When tho stock exchange ndjourned on Thurs day It did so not to resume burfness until next Monday, Saturday of this week being added to the usual holiday of Good Friday. Th quotations for tome of the more active railroad stocks end the week high er than they were on last Saturday, while many industrials are decidedly lower. The week haa been marked by a further falling- off ln the amount of outside orders and business, and by Increased evidences of manlplatlon. while London, which was Inclined to be dull. In view of the near ness of the holidays was also affected by the less promising aspect ot the British operations In South Africa, and by the increasing firmness of money, showed an Inclination at times to sell the stocks It recently bought here. Americans, how ever, continued to be a leading feature in London, and European buying was again somewhat in excess of the sales azer.bed to foreign interests. Our market has. however, begun to no tice the strength of exchange rates, though sterling rates are still about VA below the level at which gold ejfpqrti found circulation. In fact about totO.OM gold Is going from New York to Buenos Ayres on a London order. It Is realized that th6 relatively firm money market at London and the prospect of further ease here ln rerard to loans and Interest rates may well result In the transfer of con siderable amounts of capital from New York to Europe. Here the financial situa tion is certainly not averse to the stock market. The decrease shown In last Sat urday's bank statement had no effect, and the gains of the New York banks from the Treasury and the Interior promise to result ln a favorable statement today. In spite of a presumable increase in "ft all street borrowings. Offerings of funds on call and time are more ficely made, and the confidence In the financial position ihich asrted ttselt after tho currency bill ws passed and tho Government refunding plan put In op eration. Is unimpaired. Continued Increas In railroad earnings and fair. If not fa vorable. crop prospects, bave aided ln glv lng the railway shares their strong tone. On the other hand, the fact that the iron and other trades still enjoy uninterrupted prosperity did not seem to bring support to the industrial group, the steel stocks, as already mentioned, being an especlallj weak feature. It would seem this U due to the forced liquidation ot holdings of the combination stock of such compa nies brought on by the growing doubts ki.i. h.r. intlv been excited regarding dividends on that class of the shares ot several companies.
