Industry outlook and shipping notes at New York harbor
R G Dun and Co weekly review notes little change in the industrial scene with cautious iron sector demand, lower nail prices, and ongoing ore contract unsettledness. Wool and boot ware pricing ease, cotton mills run unevenly, and exports show mixed value shifts. Vessels faced heavy weather as Nottingham and other craft encountered snow and gales, with several ships diverting to safer harbors and barges damaged but salvageable.
