PERRY MAY GET 1T.
A Tip Out That the Santa Fe Will
Move Its Division Point From
Arkansas Citv.

The story is going the rounds Of the
railroad circles that Perry is to be
made division point of the Santa Fe
which will be moved from Arkansas
City. One thing is certain that the San
ia Fe is looking very kindly at Perry
and intends to make it an important
railroad point on its southern main
line
The town is the best situated one in
Oklahoma for a division point of the
Santa Fe. 1t is directly midway between
Newton and Purcell and is just about
$50 miles from each of these towns. This
makes proper sized freight division and
1t will be this fact that will have much
to do with the placing of the division at
that point.
The Santa Fe now has a force of en-
gineerS making the final survey of the
new line from Blackwell to Perry and
the construction work will be COM
menced by July 1. The line will be
pushed to completion at once and it is
thought trains will be running over the
new line before fall.

A FIGHT FOR LIFE.
Is the Opposition of the Drummers to
the Trusts

New York. June 15.-Remarkable evil
dence will be given before the indus
trial commission at Washington on
Friday. when Percy z. Dowe( the pref
dent of the Commercial Travellers Ma
tional league, takes the stand to testify
regarding the effect of trusts upon COM
mercial travellers.
1T is a case of $4,000 men fighting
for their existence as a body of ex-
pert business men," said Mr.. DOVE
and think the rank and file are fully
alive to the seriousness of the situation.
The 100000 commercial travellers in this
country spend on an average three mil
lion dollars a day in railroad fares and
hotel expenses. I have already heard
from nearly 1000 representative men,
and their opinion is unanimously
against all trusts, combination and
monopolies. 1 have collected a. guam
tity of evidence continued Mr.. DOVE
''and I shall be able to give the COM
mission a number of instances in which
the formation of trusts has worked
havoc among our ranks. The chair
trust threw 1000 travellers out of en-
ployment- The American steel COM
bination caused the discharge of 300
travellers in one day from one house
taken into the combine. The tobacco
deal cost $50 men their positions at one
time All these points and many others
shall bring out in my evidence"

IRON STILL GOING UP.
Now Question of Delivery and Not
of Price.

New York, June 15.-Discussing trade
conditions the Iron Age says today:
In place of any check of the upward
tendency in the iron markets, prices are
still rising all along the line and the
feeling is growing more and more nerv-
Gus. Consumption does not seem to
be checked in any direction; on the con-
trary it is a question more of delivery
than of price. While it is true that
the bulk of current business in many
lines is merely the covering of urgent
needs, it is equally true that a DISPOSE
ton to take hold for next years deliv
cry at or near present value is devel-
oping.
The manner in which contracts are
being covered for material for the bal
ance of this year indicates that con-
sumerS do not hope for any receding
values. Where usually contracts for
a long season are placed, buyers, how
ever, are not disposed to go much into
1900. Thus the agricultural implement
makers have bought very heavily of
bar, merchant steel, malleable castings,
etc, for the balance of 1898, but against
ing beyond that period.
The scarcity of Bessemer pig contin-
ues and some good sales have been
made. Reports are current that
some of the large works of the
central west still need additional guam
titles. The situation is reflected to
some extent by the purchases of south
ern basic pig for 1900 delivery which
In foundry iron the advance continues
under a, moderate volume of business.
We note a sale of about 10000 tons of
southern iron to be put into warrant
yard during the first part of 1900.
The rush for material is well reflected
by the heavy sales of muck bars in
the central west, one interest alone hav-
ing sold 16, 900 tons in the last few days.
The price has now risen from $31.25 to
$31. so.
We understand also that there have
been some very large sales Of sheet
bars from the fourth quarter.
In bar iron the eastern we'll as the
western markets have had an extra
ordinary rush of business and the east
ern prices, which Jagged behind the par
ity of western prices, have now taken
a rapid upward movement.
The scarcity in plates continues, and
with the constant flow of new ship
building and bridge orders coming in it
looks as if the large additions to ca
pacity of plate plants would be we'll
taken care of. In fact, we hear of one
sale of 5000 tons for next years deIiv-
cry at present prices.
