Advance in cereals and iron trade show mixed signals
R G Dan & Co reports a week of apparent improvement in trade with higher prices for some goods due to tighter supplies while the senate paralysis and low gold gains persist. Wheat advances amid large western receipts. cotton and woolen goods slip as demand remains weak. Iron and steel see some lift in finished product prices but overall demand is too small for supply. multiple furnaces idle and prices undercut as coke and ore costs push margins. Also notes irregular trade, religious controversy in St Joseph, Choctaw allotment delay requests, and Mrs. Lease gravely ill in Minnesota.
