REVIEW or TRADE.
Sufficient Labor Cannot Be Secured
to Handle Freight-Better Tone
In the Iron Market.

II. @. Dun e. Co.'S Weekly Review
OF Trade says: Business has made
moderate progress during the past
week, despite unusual opposition from
the elements. When other Industries
are. TO q considerable degree, depend
ent upon agricultural conditions, re-
ports of serious injury to crops by cold
and wet weather are not calculated
to stimulate confidence. Subsequent
ly corrections indicated that the
amount of damage had been exagger.
ated. as usual, and prospects bright
ened. The car shortage is beginning
to be felt. especially In the Plttsburg
o.strict. where sufficient labor cannot
be secured for handling freight. Man
ufacturing plants are well occupied,
as rule, even the textile mills re-
porting less idle machinery, and at
Chicago there is notable pressure for
implements and hardware. Lumber is
In better demand as structural activ-
ity revives. Payments are seasonably
prompt except where late crops delay
settlements, and the outlook for fall
and winter business contains much
that is encouraging. Railway earn
ings thus far reported for September
show an average gain of 1913 per cent
over last year, in the iron and steel
industry quotations have been dechn.
Ing for some months, and a large
tonnage may be offered. Uneasiness
over the labor situation aggravates
the difficulty although latest devel-
opments in the building trades are
nest encouraging in this respect
Prices have held fairly steady dur
ing the past week, although there
were numerous rumors regarding pros
pective reductions. Sales of pig iron
are small, but 1t Is somewhat signifl-
cant that purchasers are urgent for
quick delivery. Agricultural and
structural steel shapes are moving
freely, with several new contracts
about to be placed. Failures this week
were 219 in the United States. against
1879 last year, and 10 in Canada, com.
pared with 25 a year ago. Bradstreet's 8
says: The outlook for average crops
Is still a good one, nothing in the ma
ture of actual shortages, such as oc-
CURED in 1901, is indicted, and while
the opinion possibly inclines to the
view that the boom is over in sew
eral Industries, none the less the be-
lief is maintained that a good aver
age fall and winter trade is in pros
pect. New buying Of pig iron has
been of fair volume, most prices have
failed to harden. Pittsburg reports
better tone in iron. with orders for
f'r'shed products coming In more free
ly. Steel billets have not been cut in
price. Coke shippers complain of a
scarcity of cars. Tin plate mills are
crowded with orders. The ending of
strikes is helping structural material.

A FEW MORE MILLIONS ARE NEEDED.
MORGAN ASKS FOR TIME.
Syndicate Asked to Extend Time Of
Bond Conversion Scheme and
Also Pay Assessments.

j. p. Morgan & Co. has sent out
notices to members of the second
Steel Corporation underwriting syndi-
cate requesting an extension of the
life of the underwriting agreement for
an additional period of nine months
An option Is also given to these men,
bers of the syndicate who may be un-
willing to grant the extension to take
up their participations and withdraw
Accompanying the notice sent out by
Morgan & Co. was a call for a cash
payment based on a contingent liabil-
lty. The percentage of the call was
not made generally clear, but those
who figured the amount of cash called
stated that the amount was somewhat
less than sl0,O00,0OO, which a Wall
street report stated was the amount
that j. p. Morgan & Co., as syndi-
cate managers, had actually called.
The members who remain in the syn
dlcate and grant the extension of nine
months will be called upon TO pay a
percentage. estimated to be less than
20 per cent of the entire cash liabil-
lty, while the others who are anxious
to retire from the syndicate will be
compelled to pay up the cash liability
of their participation in full. The syn
dicate was formed nearly IS months
ago to guarantee the success of the
big stock conversion plan and Is gen.
orally known as the second steel cor
poration syndicate. Its life expires In
October next, and in the ordinary
course of affairs would have been
wound up on that date and the profits,
If any, distributed, or If otherwise, the
securities to which the underwriters
were entitled returned. It will be re-
called, that this syndicate agreed to
supply sS0,000,000 of preferred stock
for conversion into 8 per cent bonds
of the corporation and in addition $780,
100000 in cash for which they were to
receive the same class of bonds. The
total issue of bonds amounted to $780,
100000, of which $200,000,000 was to
be issued against deposits of preferred
stock and the balance, s50.000, 900, for
cash. OF this entire amount syndi-
cate, which the Morgan house formed,
stood ready to supply 800. 100000, d.
vided, as has been stated, into $S0000,-
600 of preferred stock and $20,000,0O0
In cash. The offer to the stockhold-
ers was not well taken, and the burden
falls upon the members of the un-
derwriting syndicate.

then will blow out, If there is no i'm

IRON BOOM ENDED.
Consumption Still Continues at an
Enormous Rate.

Consumption Still Continues at an
Enormous Rate.
James NJ. Swank, general manager
of the American Iron and Steel AS
sociation, in the forthcoming "Bulle-
tin" of that association will say: st
has been. recognized for some time
that the boom in the iron trade of
this country, which began with the ear
ly weeks of 1899, has come to an end.
1t would be chronologically correct to
say that it ended with the close of
the first half of 1903, when 1t be-
came evident to all observers that
the urgent demand for iron and steel
in nearly all forms was slackening and
that some iron and steel prices were
weakening. "rhese indications of the
subsidence of boom that was then
exactly four years and half old have
since been still more noticeable. But
It Is an error to assume that the end
of the boom means an end of prosper
ity for the iron trade. Consumption
still continues at an enormous rate.
few works have been closed even tenn
porarily by a lessened demand for
their pioducts, and prices are simply
being adjusted to more normal condi-
tions. This is the whole story up
to the present time"

Declined Carneaie's Offer.

Glenville, a suburb of Cleveland, has
declined an offer of library from
Andrew Carnegie. Some months ago,
it is said, Carnegie promised to give
the city $4,000 for building on the
usual conditions. The council passed
the necessary tax levy to maintain the
institution. Now 1t appears that there
was some Misunderstanding, for all
that Carnegie will give is $4,000
This has offended the citizens and the
committee has written that the city
will not accept the library under any
conditions.
