The Feeder Outlook.

Discussing the cattle situation the
Chicago Livestock World says: I'm
questionably. the recent advance in
corn values has had a depressing eff
feet on the stocker and feeder marke;
and the packing house strike has as>
grayated the situation. Had the corn
prospect been more luminous, there
would have been much more insist
ent demand for unfinished beef. For
tunately, over large portion of corr,
belt area the crop is still In flourish
ing condition. and In remote sections
feeding will be resumed If the yielc
proves at all satisfactory.
Corn al 30 cents per bushel or there
abouts, does not look attractive TO the
feeder, however. He has tried 1t and
lost out, consequently his scepdeism Is
to Some extent justifiable.
But il corn is high the fact must
not BIZ overlooked that stock cattle are
cheap. One condition neutralizes the
other. and, If by reason of high priced
corn any considerable number of feed
ers stay out of the game, those who
stay In are likely to reap their reward.
"In view of these facts it may be
possible that high priced corn ana
cheap stockers may form winning

Conservatism Rules the Buying Mar
ket-Confdence Unsettled.
New York, Aug. 20.-Bradstreets to-
day SAYS:
Conservatism rules the buying move
ment. which, while gaining in force at
some leading markets, still lacks the
snap shown in former years at this
time
Reports from the great industries
show little change during the week.
Cotton goods buying at first hands is
rather backward mad does not readily
respond to reductions in bleached
goods. There is. however, more doing
in jobbing circles, and the tone OF that
trade is better than for some time past.
Wool is steady and rather firmer on
a quiet buying movement. Wooden
goods are in fair inquiry. but the high
er basis of cost is bar to the fullest
development in this line
Little expansion is shown in the de-
mand for shoes. The scarcity of hides
has caused the shut down Of number
Of tanneries, and the strength of the
market is shown in leather quotations

r. c. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of
Trade says:
confidence in the continued i'm
provement of trade has been somewhat
unsettled by sensational events In the
wheat market and the lack of harmony
between labor and capital. 1t is be-
coming evident that estimates of the
wheat crop must be reduced, altho
other agricultural news Is much better
than usual.

those who counted upon an early re-

Railway earnings thus far reported
for the first week OF August show

less loss in comparison with 1903.
Small reductions in prices of cotton
goods were made. notably in leading

Pittsburg Steel Co. and Repub-
lie Iron Company Fight the
Trust Together
HOW THE TROUBLE STARTED
Attempt of the Big Corporation to Gu.
OFF the Pittsburs's Supply of BilIets
by Buying the crucibIe Company
Causes Retaliatory Measures Re-
view of Trade.

| Pittsburg. Aug. 20-A long and bitter
| iron and steel war is believed to be i'm
| minent. Yesterday it was semi offl-
| cially announced by the Pittsburg
Steel Company, between which and the
United States Steel Corporation the &c
has been trouble, that the Republican
Iron and Steel Company. of Youngs-
town, o., has joined in the struggle,
and that the corporation must fight
the two big concerns il it would fight
one.
Steel Company yesterday new light has
been shed on the start of the trouble,
in which the United States Steel Cor
poration and the Pittsburg Steel Com
pany are now wrapped. AS the mat
ter now stands the United States Steel
Corporation is said to have almost 3d.
600 tons of billets. which 1t had made in
anticipation of a great order from the
Pittsburg Steel Company. which IT
thought had been secured.
When the Crucibe Steel Company
States Steel corporation to buy its big
plant at Clarion, it was understood
between the seller and buyer that some
good will went with the transfer" said
the official. THE Crucible had for some
time been supplying the Pittsburg Steel
Company, and the Crucible Company
consented to allow the United States
Steel Corporation to supply the Pitts
burg corporation with billets.
The Pittsburg Steel Company was
not consulted. It had to get about 150,-
600 tons OF billets from somewhere and
had been getting them at cut rates
from Crucible people while the Crucible
was forcing the United States steel
corporation into buying it out. The
Pittsburg Steel Company, as the big
gest buyer of billets in the market,
thought some concession should be
made 1t, but since the corporation had
absorbed the crucihle we saw nothing
but the pool of S23 per ton staring us
in the face. We did some figuring,
and an explosion came when we an>
nounced the purchase from the repub>
He of $50 900 tons at 81 less than the
pool price.
but all this time other concerns OF
the United States steel corporation was
going ahead piling up billets against
the order from the Pittsburg Steel
Company, which they had been told
was theirs, in fact the announcement
that the billets had been bought on
the outside at great reduction was
hard blow. 1t is said that the eorpor>
alton has now moi less than $4,000 tons
of billets left on its hands.
I'VE will meet every cut of the corr
poration and in most cases go them
point better. We are In a position to
do this and it will be war to the knife.
We can undersell the united steel peo~
pie when it comes to show down ana
can keep It up"

SURVEYING AN iNTERuRBAN.
Good Progress Being Made With The
Line To Extend West Of Dubuque.


Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, Aug. 20.-The officers of
the Midland Construction Company re-
port that rapid progress is being made
on the proposed lnteurban electric rail-
way from Dubuque west. The sur
veyors have been working with vigor
for the last four months and they feet
that the road will be under construc-
ton in the course of few weeks. All
OF the farmers along the proposed line
are anxious for electric connection
with Dubuque and in instances the
county boards in several counties west
of Delaware have voted tax to get
the line.
1t will probably require a year or
two to construct the road, and If the
construction is begun before the ad-
vent of fall the line should be in oper-
alton before 1906.
The farmers of Grant county, Wis,
are very anxious that the work of cons
struction on the proposed interurban
between Dubuque and Wisconsin
points be commenced. but for some
reason the officers of the road are not
doing anything TO this end. The farm
sonable prices for their land for right
of way, and are making every effort to
encourage the promoters OF the road
to commence construction. Some
months ago the complaint was made
that the farmers were asking exorbi-
tant prices for their land and the of
ficers of the road refused to purchase
the right of way at such figures. de-
claring that they would abandon their
plans for construction unless the farm
ers were more reasonable. Under
present conditions it is not thought
that the work of construction will be
commenced before next spring, if at
all.
