IN THE WORLD OF FINANCE
REPORT SHOWS INCREASED
INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITY.
Pronounced Improvement in Coal
and Iron Trades.

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA largely
increased activity IN the Industrial field
is indicated by the September figures of
internal commerce as reported to the
bureau of statistics of the Department
Of Commerce and Labor. The improve
ment is most pronounced in the coal
and iron trades.
The lumber movements during the
month fairly heavy. though for
some sections September reports show
slight decreases from the larger move
ments recorded for the earlier months.
The market receipts of agricultural
products, including grain, rice and cot
ton, on the whole, show a normal devel-
cpment. The movement of live stock
and particularly of meat products at
principal packing centres. mainly on ac-
count OF the smaller export demand,
shows a more stationary condition.
The traffic activity of the railways
during the month was considerably
larger than a year ago. While the num-
Der of idle cars at the end of the month
had not yet disappeared. a rapidly
growing car shortage began to manifest
itself, which Is likely to interfere 10
some extent with the movement of the
great staples during the rest Of the year.

WALL STREET NOTES.

Professional speculative sentiment is
now such that stocks should be bought
on all slight recessions, to be held for
better prices shortly. Brokers are in
clined to believe that the market will
be somewhat irregular, but strong In
the main. Tomorrow is election day
and the market will be closed. This
day. coming In conjunction with the
closing of London, would tend to break
up any concerted movements. Copper
is being advertised by Lawson, and he
Is selling the opportunity of bulling
Copper at a time when others more
prominent and more powerful han he
are attempting to do the same thing.
Steel and Copper, brokers believe, will
work higher. Union Pacific has been
well bought and will work higher later.
Uptown Sentiment-Seyeral active
spectators express the opinion this
morning that today's market will be
much the same as that of last Satur-
day. A considerable number of spec
ulators are out of town, and 1t is be-
lieved that the market will be allowed
to take its own course to a great ex-
tent and that the trading will be almost
altogether professional. With the cleo
ton out of the Way 1t is asserted by
some interests that the trading will be
on a larger scale and that as long as
the money market keeps comparative
ly easy there will be an active stock
market and that the tendency of prices
will be upward. Special activity is pre-
dicted for the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
tan and Rock Island issues.

CUSTOMS SERVICE GRAFT
CASES Go TO PRESIDENT.
Alarmed Over consequences of
LOeb's Action.

NEW YORK. Nov. 1.-The New York
custom house scandal will be laid be-
fore President Taft when he returns to
Washington by Secretary of the Treas
ury MacVeagh and Acknowledgement
Wickersham The news has been re-
ceived here that the whole situation
will be made clear to the President by
some of his advisers, who are alarmed
over the consequences of Collector
Loeb's policy of retaining b~ribe-taker
IN the service.
The honest officials in the custom
house have interested cabinet officers,
as well as United States senator's, with
their complaint that they should not
be forced to work with thieves. 1t is
understood here that Taft will have the
advantage of going over reports made
by special agents of the treasury and
of the department of justice, covering
not only the widespread operations of
the graft ring in the customs service,
but the awkward situation that has
arisen through Collector Loeb's policy
of retaining confessed criminals in the
service.
1t was learned today that the Fed
eTdl dulnoritleS nave evidence IN more
than 100 cases of grating to lay before
the United States grand jury in this
city. 1t vas said thai the evidence
concerns at least a dozen firms of i'm
porters n from thirty to forty Gus
toms officials.
The grand jury, it was said today
would be asked to follow the tracks o.
the system from the end on the dock.
to the end in the custom house Thu
evidence indicates that the heads O
the system were important Officials
who had access to the records and pull
enough to throw dust in the eyes o.
suspicious colleagues. 1t casts light or
the whole operations of the ring. from
the interesting activities of the big
grafters to the humdrum stealing OF
the s4-a-day cheaters on the docks.

vices, the character of which were de-
cidedly beartsh. Shipments of wheat
from Russia last week were 1,72S,000
bushels, which is the second largest

try. Advices from Australia and Ar
gentina told of a steady Improvement

countries.
Despite these bearish influences OPEN
ing quotations here were only u to Is
lower to a shade higher compared with
Saturdays final figures. The Decem-
Der delivery showed the greatest weak

moderate bidders on the decline. which
resulted in a rally to los to II. Later
the price dropped back to loan TO *.
Wet weather in portions of the corr
belt had a strengthening effect on the
corn market early in the day. The

soy. For q time the December deliv-
cry held within that range.

cember opened a shade lower at 39&
