TRADE FIGURES
SLIGHT Decrease IN PRO-
DUCTl0N DURING AUGUST.
Feeling Is Better, However, and Expec-
tafions Are That Consumption VIII
Continue to Keep Furnaces Busy.

CLEVELAND. o. sept. ts-The Iron
Trade Review IN It's issue Of today says;
while transactions put through during
the week have not been sufficient In tom
mage TO AFFECT market copditions one way
or the other. the sentiment is decideely
better. The most notable change las been
the improvement of inquiry for foundry
pig iron. These inquiries. while they have
not run larger than a carload to lOO-ton
lots. have been more numerous than N
any week of the past month. Prices are
easier. and $3.50 valley furnace can easily
be gotten on Northern No. for either
prompt or forward deliveries. This ~ a
reduction of fifty cents since our last re-
port.
Our monthly blast furnace statistics
show a decrease in production for August
of Sc, T3 tons, as compared with July ana
a decrease OF 1860 tons as compared with
the record month of May of this year. AS
a number Of furnaces have blown out In
the past two or three weeks, a still smaller
production may be expected for Sep
TENDER.
"The negotiations fors deliberations of
the representative of the railroad and
manufacturers of steel rails are apparently
approaching an amicable conclusion, ana
more interest is being shown In the ran
market, but little new business is reported.
The advance announced last week in prices
of wire products has been well received.
and has stimulated the market for fall and
winter deliveries. The demand for sheets
and plates is good, and the delivery shows
considerable Improvement. The structural
material market is in satisfactory con-
dition, and sellers are figuring on a large
number of new plants and bridges
especially in the Central West. :.
"The coke market is strong. There is still
some dihhplty in obtaining labor. The
blowing out of the furnaces in the valleys
will undoubtedly decrease the demand for
a time. While there has been more buying
OF old material in Philadelphia and some
other centres, the market in general Is
dull"

decided TO take drastic action against the

Of Las Tres Marias. in the Pacific ocean.

AND NOTES
FOR INVESTORS.

Wall Street has been in a ~quandary as
to whether the Erie Railroad will make
further dividend disbursements in the
shape Of warrants. Although such a
course will pile up a large additional
amount of interest-bearing debt, it will
be less dnerous than the enforced borrow
ing Of large sums for improvements at
prevailing rates.
Investors and spectators are looking
forward with much interest to the coming
action Of New York Central directors,
whose first p~ost-vacation session will be
held on September IS. 1t is said thet the
most important subject to be considered
at the meeting is a general and very
comprehensive plan for the curtailment OF
the operating expenses Of the system. Z
The reported disagreement between the
Pennsylvania Railroad and the United
States Steel Corporation is said to be in
a fair way of settlement, now that Judge
Gary has returned from Europe.
Japan's American fiscal ageney Is. now
paying off the 80, 900, 900 or so Of 6 per cent.
bonds. which were not EXCHANGED FOR the
AZ per cents. This will release that much
cash which Japan must pay the American
holders of the bonds.
The New York Stock Exchange nas listed
$3.417. 200 additional common stock OF the
Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Com
pany, to be added to from time to. time

For the first time in many years the
Western Union Telegraph Company has
decided not to issue a quarterly state
ment Of its earnings.
A revision of the 1854. 555 bales of cotton
in New York warehouses on August 81
was. decided on, and goes into effect today,
by order OF, the warehouse add delivery
committee Of the Cotton Exchange. Mast
hof the grades are lowered about u cent.
and therefore the lower grades Of the old
crop will be made more valuable at once.
Copper stocks in Boston are even more
demoralized than in New York. The ac-
tive copper stocks on the Boston Exchange
have broken within the past few days any
where from 5 to 20 points.
At 1903 the new AZ New York city bonds
are selling cheaper than the new 4 pcr

All.
Mr.. King, of Eisele & King said. 1.-THE
industrial corporations are at present in an
obsolete condition. especially the mining
issues. Strikes are cropping up here and
there and, added to this discomfort, the
leading mining producing companies are
cutting their dividends. This is a bad
omen among the already frightened public
and has caused much selling in the indus
trials. On the other hand. the railroad
stocks lpok very cheap to US for the profit
they derive for the investor"
During the first six months of this year
about $500. 900. 600 of new securities were
issued by the railways and $3.50, 900. 900 by
the industrial corporations. This has been
the cause Of the fall in market values Of
stocks and bonds and not the want Of con-
hdence, is the way a bank president
puts it.

the treasures which have come TO be

inventor of Catford, England, has just
patented a submarine boat, 10 which
the British press has given especial
attention, and which, the originator
saws, will be able to reach depths
heretofore inaccessible. 1t is to be
equipped in such a way that men
within it may guide the cables, let
down by wrecking crew above, and
wrap them around a sunken hull, so
that the submerged ship may be

Gently sank off the Algerian coast and
which was not recovered until all its
crew were dead. the CatfOrd inventor
has planned a device by which those
within his submarine may escape
from the bottom of the sea. His ship
is to be equipped with an air-tight,
cup-shaped compartment, in which in
time of danger the crew may take
refuge. and then fastening the door
behind them so that neither air nor
water may enter, release the compaTt-
.ment from the submarine and in it
rise TO the surface.
