IEOX TRADE GOOD AT MOST POINTS
rFrtCtAt. TELEGRAM TO TIIE DISPATCH.!
Kett Yoke, Dec 11. Tpecial telegrams
to JSraddred's report the customary falling
offin-jobbing aud other wholesale lines
during this season in practically all
directions, though it is a little intensified
by unexpectedly mild weather, which tends
to check sales of seasonable staples. Coun
try merchants are quite generally buying
stocks as they need them, and there is a
widely manifested disposition to go ahead
slow ly. Dealers have begun stock-taking
In many instances, and the only note
worthy animation aside from the grain
trade is in ChrisAnas holiday specialties.
The mercantile failures continue to in
crease from v eek to week, aggregating 380
in the United States for this week against
306 last week and 341 in the like week last
year. The total number of failures in the
United States from .Tanuarr 1 to date is 11,
620 as compared with 9,842 in a like portion
of 1890.
tVearine Apparel and Its Materials.
The distribution of woolens and cottons
is checked. Wool is very dull, and cotton
a low and unsatisfactory in price as ever;
Hoots and shoes are in little better demand
lor spring delivery, and leather is more
active, with the price tending upward. Pe
troleum is of slow movement and prices are
heavy.
Live cattle and hogs are in free receipt at
"Western packing centers, and prices are
lower. Loccinsr preparations are beintr
pushed in the 2s"orthwest, and in Louisiana
the rice crop promises to be large, fully
1,000,000 bAss of rough.
At 1'liilapelphia a much better feeling
exists in the iron and steel industries, due
to leeent laree orders for steel rails and car
iron. At 1'ittsburg a four-months' delivery
contract has been accepted for pig iron at
the lowest prices made, and pic and billets
drag a little. Iron is quite dull at Cincin
nati, but merchant and pig iron are in bet
ter request at St Louis.
Gros earnings of 130 railroads in Novem
ber acgrecated fully 9 percent more than
in November, 1S90, last month's total ex
ceeding somewhat ?4G,500,000.
Kallroads Coining Money From Grain.
The significance of the exceptional Xo-
remoer gain, caused ty tne unprecedented
grain movement, is shown when it is re
called that in October last the increase was
only 8.7 per cent over the total gross in Oc
tober, 1S90. Granger, trunk line and South
western railways enjoyed the heavier ratio
of gain. For if months the total gross earn
ings exceeded S4riG,000,000, which is 5.7 per
cent more than in the 11 months of 1880.
Grangers, Eastern roads, Pacifies and trunk
lines make relatively the better returns.
Bank clearings at ji cities in the United
States this week equal $1,213,070,872, a de
crease of 8.8 per cent from last v eek, and
an increase of L8 per cent over the week
one year ago.
"Without any decided speculative activ
ity, the New York share market has dis
played a marked tendency to improve, the
most noteworthy advance having been in
the Vanderbilt trunk lines, the Granger
shares and some of the dividend-paying
specialties. The heavy demand and ad
vancing prices for bonds encourages the
market, although bearish manipulation and
the weakness of the Gould group and of
Xortliern Pacific has at times obstructed
the upward movement.
Europran Gold Still Comln;.
Foreign interests have been made tliepur
cliasers in the market, and the decline of
rates tor money in London, with the reduc
tion of the Bank of England rate to Z per
cent, has a favorable effect. Foreign ex
change has advanced Jc on increased in
quiry, but some small shipments of gold
fiotn Europe have, nevertheless, been an
nounced. "Wheat has sagged off during the week,
after an advance due to decreased supplies
reported afloat, sharper demand by cable
and news of the increased export movement
made public by BradMrccl's last Saturday.
Indian corn has been higher for December
Jtiivery on short supplies at leading points
of accumulation, and inability of the rail
roads to handle the cereal any more rapidly.
The decrease of the available stocks of wheat
last week of something less than 700,000
bushels is onlv nominal, as there were
ahout 2.000,000 bushels of uncounted wheat
niloat in Bufialo harbor, and more than 250,
000 bushels of wheat were shipped from
Ituluiln by rail last week. This points to a
probable actual increase of available wheat
last week of nearly 4,000,000 bushels.
A I5i Increase of Wheat Exports.
Exports of wheat from 12 United -States
pons this week equal 6,033,000 bushels.
acainst 5,799,742 bushels, flour included as
wheat, the week before, and as, compared
with 2,041,079 bushels in the second week
of December, 1890.
1- G. Dun & Co., in their weekly review,
say:
As the holidays draw near, all signs Indi
cate a large volume of business at the pres
ent, with grciMing confidence of Improve
ment in the future, except in parts of the
South, -n heie the unusual accumulation of
co: ton and its low price have a depressing
influence. There is no lack of money In any
pert of the country, exceptat some Southern
jioints, and the mere fact that cotton now
accumulated at a fewyorts and interior
towns represents fully $00,000,000 in value
him1 to planters, at once explains the diffi
culty and suasests that it is not permanent.
It ! a cood sicn, also, that collections at o
en the whole improving.

The use of Handkerchiefs
is a distinctive mark of civiliza
tion. t)ur own experience is that
every season witnesses in this
community an increased de
mand for this article. More
bought More sold.
Belfast is the center of the
Linen Industry of the World.
The Handkerchief branch of
it being1 almost confined to
that City of Ireland, where
the industry is now several
hundred .years old. By-and-by,
possibly the tariff will ena
able us to grow the flax and
weave superior linens in this,
the best country the sun ever
shone on. For the present,
however, good Irish Linen
Handkerchiefs will do they're
good enough for the most fas
tidious. Anticipating an increased de
mand for this year and particu
larly for Christmastide, 1891,
our importations have been
on an unusually liberal scale.
Orders were given last January
and the women folk of the
Irish peasantry have been en
gaged on the needle-work on
the embroidered ones of this
order ever since. The goods
are now all in stock new,
fresh, different patterns than
you've heretofore seen.
On these Ladies' Embroid
ered Handkerchiefs prices be
gin at 10 cents and stop at
$6.50 each and intermediate
prices with stair-like regularity.
Then there are the plain,
everyday Handkerchiefs plain
white Hemstitched that most
of the world finds good enough.
In this line we are still selling
the celebrated manufacture of
Murphy & Stevenson, Belfast,
and are so sure of the values
