Dun's Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say: Such change as has taken place In business Is for the better. Advance In confidence Is slow nnd the growth In activity ac-tivity slower, but both. arc advancing and growing. Improvement In demand which followed the recent cut in steol prices is not general gen-eral Activity In bars is In response to larger buying by agricultural Implement makers and rail orders are coming in freely. Seven additional furnaces were blown out last month. Current demand reflects scant improvement, as the existing weakness in prices encourage buyers to hope for further concessions. Without sign of price weakness, (rot-ion (rot-ion goods markets are quieter, with Jobbers Job-bers still disinclined to antlelpato in any active -way. The converting and mami-factulrng mami-factulrng trades have covered some part of their future requirements, but curtailment cur-tailment of the output Is increasing. In woolens and worsteds the attention of the trade Is foi used on the tariff discussion dis-cussion at Washington and trade is slow The movement In footwear Is fair, but not up to expectations. The leather markets mar-kets are stronger, tanners Insisting upon an additional 1 cent Increase In sole. Chrome side upper stock and calfskins are selling well. Tho domestic hide markets continue to advance. BRADSTREET'S REPORT. Trade, Crop and Industrial Conditions of a Variable Character. j NEW YORK. June 9.
