CHICAGO, September S.-Iron and
Steel says:
Northern pig iron has advanced 81
and merchant steel S. per ton. Black
sheets are higher and so greatly in de-
mand that the production of galvanized
sheets has been curtailed. Light rails
are from 81 to S4 higher. Quite a num-
Der of hardware articles have risen in
value during the week, and on other
products makers are considering an adj
vance for an early date. Nails and
plain wire have advanced SO per ton
and painted barb wire SO per ton.
There is not one decline in values
throughout all the products Of iron and
steel. The one essential feature is that
the demand still exceeds the supply.

ed rs loads for export. The shipping
business here, however. showed no i'm
provement. During the latter part of
the session about the only support the
market received was buying against
puts which were touched early in the
day. December opened hose lower
at 71A@71ssc. It declined to 71@
711sc, reacted to 711ac and declined
again to 71A@71ssc, where it closed.
September sold as high as 705sc and
closed unchanged at 70ssc.
Corn was weak and lower. The
breaking of the drought throughout the
corn belt and cooler weather helped the
bears and brought considerable long
corn onto the markets, resulting in a
gradual decline in prices. Selling OF
deferred futures was especially free.
Export engagements were placed at 60
loads. Receipts here were 600 cars.
December ranged from 2S1zc to 2S7sc,
and closed &c lower at 2S5sc.
Oats acted independently. Some cas-
iness was shown in September, but de-
ferred were steady and in good demand.
Elevator people were free buyers of
September, but there was quite free
selling of that future and prices sag
ged little. The urgent cash demand
was the prime factor in the steadiness.
Receipts were 1923 cars. December
ranged from 20A oppose to 2O1s @2O9sc,
and closed a shade lower at 20as @201zc.
September closed '1sc lower at 21Ac.
Provisions were slow and weak
There was steadiness early on the firm
hog market and on the continued cash
demand, but later in the session there

declined all round. The close was
