ton of cotton goods, one of aggressive
strength, is undoubtedly supporting
feature of no small account. The
strength Of wool is natural, in view of
the very large sales, most of which are
claimed to have been for account OF
manufacturers. In wooden goods, de-
mand is favorable, and further price
advances are predicted. Lumber is
again very firm, as are also hides and
leather, in sympathy with recent adj
vances in boots and shoes.
The situation of iron and steel is, per-
haps, the most notable one yet present
ed. The feature of the market is the
reported booking by the steel rail mills
of the country of nearly Is per cent of
their capacity for next years delivery.
Heavy buying of pig iron, undoubtedly
to cover some of these rail sales, is re-
ported in the central west at prices lit
tie below those ruling for some time
past. In all lines of business demand
is still very heavy, demand for steel
for cars, of plates for ship building and
for wire being additional signs of
strength. Demand for hardware is ac-
tive. The scarcity of supplies noted last
week is still a feature. Barbed wire,
rails and hard implements tend higher.
Complaints that present high prices are
injuring our export trade is also heard.
Wheat, including flour, shipments for
the week aggregate 6,416 495 bushels,
against 4,160.61S bushels last week, and
5,56O991 bushels in the corresponding
week of 1898. Since July this season
the exports of wheat aggregate 69,542,-
100 bushels, against 67,071.Ss1 bushels
last year.
Corn exports for the week were 4. 525,-
$40 bushels, against 5.05S697 bushels
last week, and 2,424,S76 bushels in this
week a year ago. Since July this sea-
son corn exports aggregate 74,3SS.375

THE FOOT BALL GAME.

Waterloo High school Playing Mar
sEalltown High school This After
noon.
The football game between the elev-
ems of the Waterloo and Marshaltown
high schools was called at o'clock this
afternoon on the Finkle park gridiron,
and is being witnessed by a good-sized
crowd. The Waterloo team arrived at
1929 this morning over the Great West
ern, the visitors being met by good
delegation from the Marshaltown
eleven and some of the high school stu
dents.
Just what the result will be is, of
course, hard to foretell. The local
eleven members claim to have in the
field the best line they have put up this
season. Bratt is out of the game for the
season, as is also Wilson, the latter
having quit school to take a position.
johnson has ben substituted in Bratt's
place at right tackle, and it is thought
will prove himself very capable. Phin
Beasley, although light, is in Wilson's
position at quarter, and will be all right
If he can keep his head. Another new
man on the team is Lounsberry, who
weighs about 10. and has been placed
at right guard. He will strengthen the
line to good advantage. The teams
lined up this afternoon as follows:

This is the first game of the season
for the Waterloo boys. and they have
only been in practice a week. They are
not over confident, but that is a very
good fault in a football game. Mr.. j.
H. Rush, formerly of the Times Repub-
lican but now of the Waterloo Report

the city and acts as one of the officials
at the game.

Chicago. Oct. 2S.-Very little that is
news can be said Of the market today.
The same feeling around 10 cents again
developed and buyers were accommo-
dated. Even present prices, based on
the supply. are couple of cents at
least too high, and we think values
must adjust themselves to the, situa-
ton before permanent advance de-
veops. Naturally the unexpected can
happen and should any sensational help
come. there are plenty of bulls there
that would crowd the market upward.
There is still danger of shorting at very
inside prices. Argentine prospects are
fair and she will assume a strong fac
or in price-making. With present
rade conditions we continue to advise
sales of May wheat on all it's bulges.
