NEW YORK. Dec IB. Bradstreet's tomor
row will say:
Wholesale trade Is quieting down as the
ctock-taklng- period approaches, and what ac
tivity is noted by Jobbers Is In forwarding BUp
plles of goodB needed to reinforce stocks of
retailers, depleted by what Is conceded to be
the most active holiday trade on record. Cold
weather North and West has helped sales of
furs, heavy clothing and sleighs, and further
stimulated general retail buying. Holiday
buying, it is noted, is for a rather more ex
pensive grade of goods than - ordinarily ex
perienced. There were, of course, some drawbacks, such
as unsettled 'weather or bad roads at the
South, the coal shortage at the East, and the '
continuance of the railroad congestion at the
"West, affecting the movement of coke, bitu
minous coal and general freight, but taken as
a whole the mercantile community contem
plates the approach of the end of the year with
complacency and satisfaction, knowing, as it
does, that most lines of trade will show gains
over 1801, and, therefore, over any preceding
year. The feeling is that the year has been
a good one, while, the fine wheat crop outlook
and the number of orders already booked for"1
next year elves promise for the future condi
tion. Even the knowledge that some manu
facturing plants, like many domestic consum
ers, short of coal, are contemplating a wither
earlier than usual holiday shut-down falls to
arouse the pessimistic feeling noted earlier in
the year, when the fuel shortage was more
talked about Shoe shipments are better this
week, but will still fall 8 per cent behind for
the season.
Seasonable influences affect the great indus
tries. Building is less active, but the tone of
the lumber market Is one of undiminished
strength. The Iron trade presents surface
quietness, some important matters taking place.
The passage of .control of large independent
concerns into the hands of leading interests
unquestionably makes for stability in the de
partments of wire, tlnplate and sheets. Hard
ware buyine is very active for this season of
the year. The glass production of the country
this year is heavier than last by fully 10 per
cent. The recent advance in pig tin Is attrib
uted to speculation. Raw wool is firm. Wool
en machinery is well employed, and next year's
heavy-weight goods are being .ordered quite
liberally. Some reduction in bleached cottons
is reported, resulting in & good business. East
ern Jewelry manufacturers report a quieting
down in business, but this is usual at this
period, and a fair trade has been done. Rub
ber goods and footwear are active In Eastern
manufacturing centers.
Wheat, including flour, exports for the week
ending December 18 aggregate 3,256,037 bush
els, against 3,761,0(7 bushels last week, 4,432.
832 bushels In this -week last year, and 4,123,
850 bushels, in 1000. Wheat exports since July
would aggregate 123,763,633 bushels, against
140,636.213 bushels last season, and 90,131,353
bushels in 1000.
Business failures In the United States for
the week ending Thursday. December 18, num
ber 225, as against 236 last week and 26S in
this week a year ago. In Canada failures
numbered 14, against 17 last week and 24 In

FEATURES OF IROX TRADES.
Expansion of Steel Trast and Ad
Taace In Freight Rates.
NEW YORK. Dec 19. R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say;
Holiday trade has exceeded even the most
sanguine expectations, and retail prices in all
staple lines o merchandise are well main
talned. with the better grades of goods in brisk
demand. The same conditions prevail in most
sections of the country, although in parts of
the Southwest the season has fallen behind
the avenure. Even in these cases reports are
encouraging for the future Industrial plants
are well employed, orders running far Into the
future, and labor controversies are rare. The
only adverse feature of the situation is the fact
that supplies of fuel are utterly inadequate,
both for household and manufacturing uses.
,-ruuiway earnings tnus far reported for Decern
bcr exceed last year's by 4.2 per cent, and
those of 1900 by 10.4 per cent.
Two events or importance have occurred in
relation to the leading .manufacturing Industry.
The United States Steel Corporation has great
ly extended Its scope by absorbing many out
side plants and certain desirable "railway con
nections. The ether waa the asnouceMit of
advanced freight rates, to take effect Jaauary
1, showing an average increase of about 10
per teat ea'jttctSoMrttr and steeL- Other
wise, the situation is unchanged, the largest
prefaced h&vlsg over 5,300,600 teas of unfilled
erders ea its books, and -work Is "bels pusned
as rapidly as supplies of fuel and material will
permit. Supplies of coke do not increase, and
many furnaces are Idle. Contracts ier bridge
work and track elevation are freely offered by
the railways, and accepted osiy en condition
that the exact date of delivery hall aot be
specified. Despite the fact that nail mills are
sold close up to the end of next year Hew
business is offered and refused, and buyers
are compelled to go abroad.
New England producers of boots and shoe
are not seeklnr new business, which comes
forward moderately In the form of supplement
ary orders. Prices are firmly held, bst no
further advance Is reported. , Although the
larger shoe manufactories are fairly well sup
plied with sole leather, there is a steady de
mand from the smaller shops. Further dete
rioration, in the quality of hides has again pro
duced a lower range of quotations In Western
markets, and heavier receipts of cattle added
to the depression.
In the woolen goods market there is a fair
volume of orders, in many cases exceeding
available offers. Worsteds and yarns are also
Arm, while & few grades of raw wool secured
another Advance, Heavy arrivals of silk bav
not weakened the tone.
Failures for the week numbered 267 in tht
United States, against 265 last year, and IS
in Canada, compared with 27 a year ago.
PORTLAND MARKETS.

The poultry market has a full supply of ev

HIGHER ON GOOD BUYING.
Farchascs at Earlr Decline Help
Wheat at Chicago.
CHICAGO, Dec, 10. Statistics were against
the wheat market, and early prices were low
er, but local traders were good buyers at the
decline, and a strong tone developed. Lower
cables, small clearances .and fair, receipts were
the main working influences. Trading was
only moderate, and no special feature was
manifested. May opened a shade to .tfc
lower, at-76H76c, and after Belling off to
76U76-Hc there was a gradual rally, the top
being reached at 77g776c The close was
6ftc higher, at 77c December closed -Ho
higher, at 73c
Warm weather throughout the West and
Southwest Imparted firmness to corn. May
closed with a gain of c, at 43K43c
Oats were Arm, but extremely dull. May
closed g c higher, at 33c
Provisions were easier early, on lower prices
for hogs, but shorts took advantage of the
lower prices and covered freely. The close was
flrai, January pork being up 6c, lard 2V4o high
er, and ribs unchanged.

REACTION CARRIES - DOWN NEW
YORK STOCK LIST.
Renewed Anxiety Over VeneKnclaa.
SItaatloa forecast of Wecltly
Bank Statement Nat Satlsfaetery.
NEW YORK. Dec IB. Today's" stock mar
ket showed the natural effect ot the elimina
tion In a very lonit arid short interest, and as
a consequence lack of sustaining Influence.
Yesterday's upward rush operations also led to
considerable realization. The professional
traders on the floor, appreciating this state of
affairs, worked for a reaction' all day, and
were rewarded In the latter part of the day
by a sharp break la prices, which carried most
ot the leaders generally below last night. Borne
renewed anxiety was felt over the Venezuelan
Bltuatlon, owing to the provisional nature of
Ihe reply from England and Germany to the
proposition for arbitration
The forecast of the weekly bank statement
did not promise as good a showing as was
counted upon in the middle of the week, and
there was some selling, due to disappointment
on that score. London also turned seller to
day, reversing the position- of yesterday. Most
of this selling, however, was purely arbitrage
business, the advance here going ahead of
London and allowing' opportunity to cover
Bales here bv buying In London. Published
reports of a heavy flotation of railroad bonds
of the Vanderbllt system In London attracted
some attention this morning, and contributed to
a sharp rise In New York Central. This de
velopment promised such Important results In
the exchange situation that It was accepted by
bullish trader. Unfortunately, the rumor met
with denials from authoritative quarters, and
this helped to turn the market downwards.
St. Paul was a conspicuous center of
strength, with continued rumors of on early
Issue of the new Btock authorized. The ad
vance was accompanied by some evidence of
manipulation, and the gain was almost entirely
wiped out Great Northern preferred rose
sharply without explanation. These special
points of strength served to sustain the mar
ket during the earlier part ot the day in face
of the realizing which was in evidence from
tho start. Southern Pacific, Missouri Pacific.
Bugar, Manhattan, and Louisville & Nashville
were all sufferers on this score. There was
some check to the selling before the close.
Which was Arm. Tho news of the transfer of
$350,000 to New Orleans by the Subtreasury
was a factor in breaking the market. The re
port of the weekly exports of grAln was also
a disappointment, the outgo of wheat being
more than' 1,000,000 bushels less than In this
week a year ago.
The bond, market was better sustained than
stocks. Total sales, $3,950,000. United States
bonds were alt unchanged on the last call.
