Bratlstreets IJeport On Business Activity NEW YORK, April 2. (A Bradstreets report says; Reaction from Easter activity and a widespread cold wave, which appears to have damaged early fruit and vege tables but no winter wheat, have rob bed the apparently general tendency toward moderate improvement of much of its uniformity, according t.o telegrams to Bradstreets this week. On the whole, however, distributive trade seems to have fairly held its own, as has manufacture in industry, gains in some tines of the latter offsetting losses elsewhere whereas collections have again sagged after two weeks of improvement. The irregularity hither. to noted In reports from different branches of trade and areas of coun try is still manifest to, perhaps, a more extreme degree, and general character ization is just as difficult as ever, ex cept that It may be said that immed iate need buying characterizes trade In spring goods, while fall buying, ex cept in instances noted in recent weeks is donet with caution approaching timidity.

Prospects of a humper yield of winter wheat were largely re sponsible. Wheat closed heavy, t to 54 n lower with May $1.34 to $1.35 and July $1.13 Vt to $1.14. 'Corn lost 7-8 to 114 cents, oats l 3-8 to 1 1 7-8, and provisions 35 to 95c, Although profit taking by shorts gave the wheat market an appearance of strength at the opening, general bearish sentiment was obvious and values soon began to break. Nervous ness was evident regarding European political and economic developments, especially tne Bntisn coal miners I strike, and there was no confidence on the bull side "when the attention of traders "became focused on crop estimates Issued by two authorities ere. Both estimates pointed ta yield of winter wheat much In excess last years total. On the ensuing sharp declines export demand broad erted out and had some temporary ef fect in rallying the market but invest ors seemed to have been scared away. and in the absence of any good general buying the close was near the .bottom figures of the day. , Liquidation on the part of the hold ers was a depressing factor in the mar. ket for corn and oats. . The weakness of wheat appeared to be the chief im mediate incentive to sell. ' Provisions gave way with grain ana hogs. ... VICTORIA. B. C, April 2. (A. P.) Making bad boys into useful citizens is a problem that has been successfully solved by British Columbia, "according to a report from the Provincial School for Boys, tables in the legislature, by the Introduction of the honor system. Bars have been removed from the windows, fire escapes are kept unlock ed day ,and night, and not a single boy haslattempted to escape. To encourage good hehavior and in dustry among the boys and to permit every boy to earn a remission of a part of the term for which he was sen. tenced, they are grouped Into classes and rewarded according to the pro gress they make.
