DUN OCXS REVIEW
Prospect of an Early Peace Has a
Good Effect on Trade
R G Dun Cos Weekly Review of
Trade says The certainty that the Span
ish Atlantic fleet is imprisoned and power
less to do harm has helped to make the
tone of markets more confident Every
step of progress during the week which
has looked toward an early termination
of the struggle has been reflected in the
market and in lower rates for money All
industries have felt the uplifting influ
ence In finances the growing anxiety to
lend on even long exchange at low rates
in place of shipments of gold to this coun
try begins to accumulate a standing credit
in favor of the United States A stronger
situation it would be difficult to describe
Iron and steel production lias declined be
cause several establishments have stopped
for repairs Eastern niaikets aie much
embarrassed while the western are
crowded beyond all precedent But prices
are not changing in either section and
special manufacture is unsatisfactory as it
would bo expected with the prospects
The wool manufacturers are buying no
wool and the sales at the three chiei
markets during the past week weie small
In cotton goods there is a stronger tone
throughout with print cloths sustained at
the recent advance Failures for the week
have been 203 in the United States against
262 last year and 17 in Canada against 30
last year
