Threatening labor troubles com more remote. The textile markets, long backward, have again failed to respond to tho general coulldencc In commercial circles. A slight recovery In cotton was not held nnd the goods mnrket shows a decline In n month of hc to 6'.4c In standard brown sheetings, 22c to 21c in wldo sheetings, 6u to 5ic in brown drills nnd 5o to 614c In staple ginghams. Steel mills nro still much behind their orders nnd contracts for Bessemer pig for July de livery indicate that the activity Is not con sidered temporary. Yet the wide difference, In quotations between Immediate and dis tant dntfs suggests some fear that present high prices .cannot be maintained. While the various pools and associations tire ex tremely conservative about advancing nom inal price lists actual business continues to ho transacted nt premiums which vdry according to the urgency of purchasers. Structural material is stIU a featuro and tho rapid development of newly discovered oil Holds Is creating nn unusual demand for plates, pipes and drilling machinery. Steel rail contracts hnvo been Increased and railways need rolling stock. Pig Iron pro duction, according to the Iron Age, has Increased to 292,000 tons weekly, which Is nboilt 5,000 tons below tho high record of February 1, 1900. It Is surprising to rind, despite, an output of ovnr 15,000,(kw tons an nually, that furnace stocks dcToased 21,316 tons during February, mnklng tho totnl 553, 112 tons In Murch, against u;0,53t tons llvo mnjitl i:o. Boo ml shoo shops are well occupied, eastern factories having their full capacity engaged In some cases up to September 1. and oven the less fortunate makers have contrncts for some months. Leather Is actlvo and well snstnlned, especially for hemlock sole. Slight Improvements In spe cial lines of textiles nro occasionally no ticed, but prices am maintained with dltll cult y. Print cloths were reduced another Vdo without accelerating operations and Fall Hlver mills are preparing to curtail production. Heavy brown cottons have been repressed and reduced output Is prob ablo In this division. Aside from a llttlo bettor re-ordcr business In lightweights, reports nro not of an encouraging nature from the woolen mills. Further declines aro reported In wool, making a mnlvrlal fall since tho month opened. At the last concession Boston holders exhibit an in clination to refuso bids and there Is more Indication of steadiness thnn previously this season. After the long-continued season of sag ging prices for cotton the market seemed ready for n reaction nnd Mr. Nelll's circu lar wns Issued at what seemed to be a propltuous moment; hut It fell flat In thl country. Predictions of a visible supply of only 250.000 hales at the end of tho crop year nnd requirements exceeding 10,000,000 bales ore not endorsed by tho action of spinners who hnvo dncrensed their tnklngs.

Hradstrcet's to morrow will say: Tho ueneriil situation Is without im portant change, the events of tho week ap- arlng to accentuate neretoioro prevailing eniiilltfnns. Distributive trndo nnd specula tion In cccurltloa continue large In volume, with orlces rlslnc In tho more favored In dustries or drooping In thpso suffering from ilenress on. As tvnes 01 1 ueso movement tno iron nnu cotton goons niuuKuier. m.- pre-eminent and these two seem lino oppo silo poles, so marked Is the difference In trndo feollnir nnd conditions. In most other Industries tho reports nro quite favorable, notable In this direction being lumber and hardware nnd Implement trades, Western and southern distributive, trade reports are quite favorable and tlio reports of active demand for dry goods and clothing nt the west rontrnst sharply with the reports of dull business and receding prices of print cloths, bleached cottons and other fabrics nt llrst hnnds. nullum- returns continue, hlchlv favor able, confirming reports heretofore pub lished of activity In general shipping, nnd roports of a shortage of curs, a Mtrnpgo onn at thin time of year, come from Chi cago and olher large centers, Clearings of hoavv volume and ill tills, as in nearly all otlfer measures of trndo Improvement, pros- out orders surpassing nn previously re. corded for this season of the year. Condi tions In tho domestic Iron and steel do mond recall tlio boom of 1S91 and It b comes morn and moro evident thnt nn enormous cnnsiimntlvo demand, illsonur aged by tlio high prices of a year ago. Is now coming freely Into tho market. Prices rise as furnace stocks fall and there nro some who fear another runnway market. Lest they should make n mlstnko similar to that of two years ago the ore producers are holding hack and hnvo not yet announced prices, whllo tho rlso of pig Iron makes their position stronger. Bars and structural material are llrm nnd lienvy hardware Is uollvn and advanclni;. Foreign reports nro as liluo as domestic advices are bright, but It Is worth noting that an enormous order ror plpen is reported captureij ny ymen cans, despite strenuous efforts by foreign crs. Cnltnn LMnik nrn dull mill llrootlV at llrst hands, purity because of tho sternly decline In raw cotton, fcc on spot for tho week and 2Vf,c from the highest price 'renched on tho tiresent boom, but still JVfco over tho low price or nt ami ju iinuve ino hmy iirien fit WK.i nrevlous to that year s r so Print clothB are Vic off for tho week and Sc off from a yenr ngo nnd talk of curt'ill nient grows louder. Low prices nro, how over, stimulating export Inquiry and some business Is being dono for China. W ool Is In larger sale and foreign mnrke's aro quite strong. Eastern stocks aro said to ho small and declining and the situation Is gradually readjusting Itself. In thu dry goods market plain dress goods are moving bteadlly, whllo fancies nro neglected. I-all sales of men'H wear goods havo been dis appointing. Tho government report of wheat In farmers' lunula, liollltlllk' to 39.000.000 hush els less held than a year ago, was regarded as a bullish featuro and, coupled with light northwestern receipts, caused a rise, which has. however, been taken ndvnntngo of to realize, and tho net chango for tho weuk Is slight, Corn was bulllshly Inclined enrly In sympathy with wheat, hut weakened nnd lost most of the ndvanco.
