tlio Ills Induntrlcii The
tVeok's 1'Hllures.
New YOUK , Dec. S. It. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade will say : Trade of
all kinds is wnitiug. There Is no visible iin-
provcinciit and , on the whole , the indications
are a little less satisfactory than they were
a week ago. The volume of business , meas
ured by cleariup house returns , outside of
New York , shows an increase of only 12 per
cent as compared with last year , which is
encouraRitiir , but as the statement covers
the payments for the 1st of Iho month it
may notcorrcctlv measure the volume of
now transactions. 'I ho reports from other
cities show n hesitating trade almost every
where , with a decided disposition to watt
until congress has acted on the tariff ques
tion. Hence the clays of uncertainly urn
likely to last for some wocs.
Wheat has risen n shade. The western
receipts were only : ! , r > 77,281 bushels , against
0Cm.l60 bushels for the same week last
year , while the exports from Atlantic ports
were only 4ir,4 ! 4 bushels , against 1S'1.400
Dusbels lor the same week last year. The
receipts of corn were unusually larpe ,
amounting to 3.237.771 bushels , against
2,7G'j.7CQ ' bushels for the same week last year ,
and the exports were OS'J.OOO bushels ,
against G7,5UO bushels last year.
.Movement of Cotton.
The movement of cotton was not encourag
ing to holders and aupearanccs indicate a
larger supply on plantations than had been
expected. The price declined 3c ( , , with
strong- evidence that the continuing heavy
receipts arc wearying to holders. ' 1 he
cotton manufacture does better than other
branches at present , and yet it has not a
very healthy appearance. The demand is
not strong and prices of goods are barely
maintained. In woolen goods the sense
of disappointment is very clear and there
seems no reason to expect any decided re
covery until congress has acted on the tariff
question. Several xvorKs have stopped pro
duction during the past week and others are
running only to fill orJera which will soon
be exhausted. Xo quotable change is noted
in prices , but sales of wool for the week
have been only 3,747,500 iwunds , as-'aiust
M7U400 for the corresponding week of last
year. The demand for speculative purposes
continues , and a large portion of the sales
are of that character.
In iron and steel manufacture there are
symptoms of improvement. The eastern
markets are waiting. There is a feeling that
the new steel rail combination will result in
a decided decrease in the demand for rails
and also for pip iron , and at Philadelphia
and Vittiburg no improvement in price is
seen.
Copper is somewhat stronger , with 10f }
cents bidand the evidences of a combination
ol purchasers accumulate.
Leacl has remained unchanged in price and
in tin prices have been almost stationary.
Failure * lor the AVcek ,
The failures for the week number 3SG in
the United States , against 271 for the corresponding
spending week hist year , and forty-two in
Canada , against thirty-six last year. For
the previous week the number of failures
was only 3I ! .
A classified siatcmentof liabilities affirms
failing during the last two wreks of Novem
ber shows a remarkable decrease in the
aggregate , and also in each section of the
country , the decrease being about a third in
manufacturing concerns and about 40 per
cent In liabilities of trading firms. Manu
facturing liabilities were 41t)7.,0-7. ) ! against
Si.4'.M.l.S5t ! the prov'ous ' week , and trading
liabilities f l,20s,44l > , against S..OS.V.iiO.

IStillUli Tendencies Clinrnrl rl7etl the Act
ion nt' tlio Trader * .
NEW YORK , Dec. S. Bradstreefs Wall
street review tomorrow will say. The bull
ish tendencies exhibited last week hnvo
given place to the narroxrcst kind of profcs-
ional trade with a renewed disposition on
the part of the board room operators to
work for a depression in prices. While the
demand for bondE , on which the improve
ment was mainly based , is still exhibited , it
seems to DO strictly limited to the more
stable class of securities , tno incipient move-
ire n Is In low priced or speculative bonds
having practically died away. Several
causeshavoco-apirated to restrict the market
a nil create a depressed tone. The mainte
nance of the dividend on Sugar at the full
rate and ttio declaration nf a rash dividend
dn Chicago Gas wera fully anticipated and
though the two stocks in question were
sustained In anticipation of such action , the
announcement of the dividends were in each
case followed by renewed selling. Alchi-
son's financial condition ana tliu circulation
of rumors about the possibility of a default
of the January Interest constituted , however -
over , one of the principal features of the
week. The reports in question appear to
comu from London aud selling of AtchUon
stock and bonds by the foreign element
aided the Impression , which extended to
various parts of the list. At the same time ,
with the exception of Atclilson , and , to some
extent , of Whisky , Sufur and Chicago Gas ,
few stocks seemed to lie the object of par
ticular attention from the heavier class of
professional operators. The small bear
traders , in fact , made the market , and , us
liquidation was nut noticuuble , it is believed
that their success has been more aptiarent
than real mid has been accompanied by a
considerable , incrcuso in the short interest.

been made. Huidclbich , Ickolholmcr &

An additional shlnmcnl of fJ.W.OJJ In gold

Kulin , Loch & Co.
The announcement that f50J.OM m irold
would be shipped to Germany on the steam
ship Travo tomorrow was not unexpected.
As a matter of fact , il was thought that thu
amount would bogl.OOJ.OJO and It is not im
probable that durint ; the day another fiOU.-
( HX ) will be engnseil 'or tomorrow , bringing
the tolal exportation up lo Iho anlidpalod
figures.
Sterling exchange is a shade higher
today , which lends color lo a report that onu
of Ihe banicmg houiei with foreign connec
tions is arranging to solid off $1OJO.OJO In
gold by Tuesdays steamer. The high rate
of money on the continent Is ono"of the
main inducements to ship cold. Iho rate
in Uetlin being 4' ' per cent , while tturo
money on call U la creator sunply ihan
thu demand at lf I1 , per cent , it is looked
upon in certain itiarters as a not unfavor
able feature of the llnanclal situation hero
that Ihore should ba an oxportiUion of gold ,
if il should not reach largo proportions , and
no fears are expresso-J in u the decline will
bo In any way dancerous ,
Lulin , Loeb t Co. have since canceled
their order for ? J.W.OOO gold for shipment to
morrow and will hold it for next Tuesdav'a
steamer.
The Post says : There is ono feature of
the expected gold shipments which ex
cites suecial common ! , and that is the
question whether tnt > banks will supply
llicir customers with the necessary cold coin
for export , or insist upon them gottins U out
ol' the already depleted stock in the United
States treasurv. Last week's bank state
ment shows that the associated bank ) of
New YorK practically hold about $10JODO-
000 in cold. The free cold in the United
States treasury at the present time , accord
ing to the lust otllcial statement , is a litlla
more than $ v.5,003OJO.
