V-Mild weather had an unfavorable afreet on trade during the past week and re tail and wholesale volumes were pull ed down, said Dun Bradstreet to day In their weekly summary. It was added, however, that "little significance was attached to the lag In the demand, for some types of merchandise, as merchants were In clined to attribute the lull In sales wholly to weather conditions. The average decline !n the week was estimated at 3 to 4 per cent, bringing the decrease from a year ago to 4 to 14 per cent." Wall St. Report NEW YORK. Oct. 21.
