A DAMPER PUT ON.
Iron Trade Suffers from Condition of
Money Market.

New York. 6.-There is some uncer
tainty in nearly all the branches of the
iron trade, induced by the feeling that
consumption may decline the balance of
the year, while production shows some
signs of adequate restriction, says the
Iron Age. What has added to the I'M
easiness is the fact that occasionally
demands are made by consumers Tor
postponement of deliveries. and in some
cases for cancellation. The condition of
the money and security markets has put
a serious damper on new undertakings,
which it is very difficult to finance.
In the pig iron markets the principal
event of the week has been the heavy
buying of western maileable iron inter-
ests, which consume about 100000 tons
of pig iron annually. For the second
half the purchases include about $4,000
tons in the Chicago market at the price
of about $3.50 for malleable Bessemer,
and considera BILE additional quantities in
the Cleveland market for Toledo and
indianapolis delivery. Other malleable
interests have also been buyers.
In ordinary foundry iron the principal
transaction reported has been the pur-
chase by a leading harvester interest of
about 20 900 tons of northern iron in the
Chicago district at ST. for No. ,. No
large sales of southern iron have taken
place and the situation is unchanged.
In Bessemer pig it is noted that two
furnaces of the United States Steel cor
poration-one at Youngstown and one
at Newcastle-are about to blow out,
so that the requirements may become
more urgent. A meeting of the pig iron
committee is to be held early next week.
Basic pig in the east has sold at $16
delivered. The lowering in the price of
pig iron is causing a decline in cast
iron pipe 1t is pretty we'll understood
that the leading steel makers have de-
termined to put a stop to importations
of steel billets and will meet such for
eign prices as are made near tidewater
or at interior points Generally speak
ing. the market is quiet. In the heavy
lines a fair tonnage is being placed,
but so far as plates and shapes Tor car
building are concerned. the future is
uncertain because the steel car builders
have not had any important new orders
for a considerable time. Nor do the
shipyards promise to be as heavy GUS
toners as they have been. Slight con-
cessions are being made in sheets ana
in terne plates. while the steel bar mills
have decided to guarantee prices against
decline. Dizziness reigns in all branch
es of the metal trade ana the senerai
Tendency iS downward.

WHEN JUSTICE is SLOW.
"Sheep" Lytle Convicted Five Years
Ago Still Out of Jail.

w. F. Lyle, better known as Sheep
Lyle, has a charge of maintaining a
nuisance which has been hanging over
him since May 9Th. 1898.
The case has been in the hands of
the supreme court, under advisement,
since February, 1901. Since then Lytle
has been arrested many times by the
police and by the sheriff and he has
served no Jail sentence and paid no
fine in the case now more than five
years old.
This is one instance which shows the
slowness of justice and the ability of
lawyers to stop the legal machinery, es-
pecially in the supreme court
Lyle was arrested May 6. 1898, by
Sheriff Cook on the charge of Keeping
and maintaining a nuisance" The case
was brought by A. P. Jetmore, then
county attorney. ]. w Knight went on
Lytle's bond. Nick Chiles was arrested
at the same time but on June IL, 1898,
the jury was ordered to return q YER
dict of not guilty for Chiles. On the
same date the jury in the district court
brought in a verdict finding Lyle gull
ty. A motion for a new trial was made
and overruled by Judge Hazen. On
June 20, 1898, the case was taken to the
court of appeals On February 5, 1901,
the case was returned from the court of
appeals and the action of the lower
court was sustained.
Judge HaZen then ordered that the
sentence against Lyle of 5000 and so
days in Jail be carried out. G. c.
Clemens then brought an original ha-
beas corpus proceedings in the supreme
court. Such proceedings are supposed
to have speedy hearing. The supreme
courted granted a temporary writ
which has been temporary for two

NOT TILL SEPT. 10.
Time for Distribution of @. A. r. Re-
lief Funu Postponed.

The distribution of the C. A r. flood
relief fund has been postponed until
September 10. Contributions to the fund
are still coming in, and as the fund is
not intended to relieve immediate neces-
stiles so much as it is to give permanent
relief to old soldiers who had their
property swept away in the flood, its
distribution has been postponed until
all the money is in.
Thus far the fund amounts to about
SO, 400. 1t is designed to aid old soldiers
who are in INDECENT circumstances ow-
ing to the flood. A list of about $50 is
now on file at department headquarters
of needy old soldiers who will be given
assistance.

RIVER SLOWLY RISING.
Not High Enough to Cause ANY
Damage.

The Kansas river is still slowly rising.
1t is not high enough to infiict any dam
age to any property along the banks
near Topeka although at Lawrence it
is reported to be working much mis-
chief with the north banks. Workmen
for the city are hauling dirt and refuse
to fill the hole on the east side of the
south approach of the Melan arch bridge
where thirty or forty feet of made
ground was washed away during the
flood. Although there is no gage by
which the rise and fall of the river
may be accurately measured, marks on
pilings in the river indicate that 1t has
risen between three and four feet since
Sunday.
