CANADA ORDERS
 6O,0OO TONS STEEL Domestic Railroads Place Small Orders-L. & N.
 Orders 500 Cars

New York, March 26.-The most inter- esting developments in the steel trade last week was the perfecting of arrange ments for furnishing 600o0 tons of Amer ican steel for the Quebec bridge in Can ada. The general contract has been awarded to the St. Lawrence Bridge company. It is also expected that an order for 10000 tons of heavy steel rails for new steel will be placed in this coun- try. Several other contracts for rail and bridge material, structural steel and steel pipe have been secured for export 10 South America. Cuba and the far east.
 Domestic railroads placed numerous small orders for equipment and supplies but the car shops and locomotive works were small beneficiaries. The principal car order was 1850 for the Atlantic Coast Line. f
 The Louisville and Nashville railroad also ordered 800 cars. The Perre Mar quette ordered 50 locomotives and tho Nickel Plate IS engines. Rail contracts aggregated more than 25.000 tons. includ- ing heavy and light sections and some smaller export orders.
 Structural and fabricated steel con- tracts mainly for commercial buildings aggregated nearly POGO tons and the American Bridge company alone received specifications on 2O000 tons. The steel companies are now operating at an aver age rate of 75 per cent or better. In pig iron circles the most prominent feature was the concession made by southern furnaces to secure business re- sulting fin the placing of contracts for about 10000 tons.

OVER EDUCATION
 PERIL THREATENS

Berlin, March 6.-(Special. l.)-Confront- ed with facts and figures showing that the universities of the empire are turn ing out young lawyers, doctors and other professionals at a rate far exceed ing the growth of the population, certain German educators are agitating the ques- tion of limiting the university attend ance. The reports of higher educational institutions for the winter terms just concluded show that the number of grad uates increased last year per cent, which is nearly four times the rate at which the population is growing.
 This does not make allowance for the still greater number of graduates of the higher technological schools. The con- tinuance of tn process, it is pointed out, will result in giving Germany a univer- sity- trained population far in excess of it's needs.
 A large proportion of the graduates are unable to obtain employment. The peril of over-production Is particularly obnox- ious to the conservative press, which suggests that the presence of 8 learned uroletaria' is a danger to society.

EXPECT COTTON
 ID BE VERY DULL Deadened By Approach of
 Extra Congress WEATHER IMPORTANT Daily Swing of Prices From Now on Will Be Largely Caused By
 the Western Weather
 Reports
 
WEATHER IMPORTANT

New Orleans March 26.-This comfn g week the cotton market Is extremely likely to be deadened by the approach ing session of Congress To some ex- tent it was felt last week and this week traders on both sides will do more or less evening Up of commitments in order to be prepared for any attacks that may be made on trading in fu- ture contracts. The general belief Is that legislation of a beneficial nature will be attempted and that interference with the exchanges will take the form of government supervision This Is something that the best element in the cotton trade is hoping for and open ly working for. As the situation now stands, however, spectators will treat as bearish influences any agitation in Congress until it is positively known that the measures to be introduced are not similar in character to the Scott bill, which failed last session.
 It Is now much of a weather market and from this on the daily swing of prices Wi be the result more of the construction placed on the weather map than any other factor. The market will open for the week with the trade anx ious to discount the weather develop rents over Sunday. The forecast called for rain over practically the entire cot ton belt and should the returns from the belt indicate that general rains fell. the advantage will be with the bear side, for the feeling still exists that the deficiency in rainfall as the result
 T. 1. hoe h<,, 1 Of course with continued rains the t.me will come when compiaints of too much rain will be heard. A few days more of wet weather and planting and preparations fo. planting will be in terfered with, while in the very early sections it will cause foul and grassy crops. The bulls will keep their ears to the ground to hear the first grumb- Ing in this direction.
 Statistics were very bullish last week and the movement for this week started off with the promise that the into-sight would again be very small. me generally accepted theory is that a week of large spinners takings IS, as a rule, followed by a week of small CT takings. Last week ta--ngs were exceptionally large, which causes belief in smaller takings this week. At tn e same time the into-sight promises to be so small that a large decrease in the visible supply is possible and after all the variations in the visible supply are the main feature of the weekly sta tistcs. The figures last week, bullish as they were, had no effect on the mar ket, but it is unnatural to suppose that the statistical position can continue to strengthen without causing an up- heaval sooner or later and that many experienced traders are watching fig ures closely, knowing what is bound to take place when conditions are ripe.

 VERY DULL WEEK The SlOwest Market Since March, 1904-Southern
 Business Good

New York, March 26-To find a parallel for the extreme dullness of the stock mar ket last week. it is necessary to go back to March of 1904. when speculation was reduced to a minimum while the market was awaiting the decision in the North ern securities case. Not since that time has trading fallen to daily average in the neighborhood of 100000 shares.
 Various facts and figures at hand con firm the fast increasing impression that the country is now undergoing slow but certain mercantile liquidation. tThis is ap- parent in all sections except the south, where business in many lines show little diminuition.S Advices from the more ina- portant industrial centers. especially in regard to the textiles. denote the eau ton shown by large jobbers and distribu- tors. while the last fortnight has wit messed a falling off in steel and iron. Other evidence of the movement in al- most all branches of trade Is found in the steady decline in bank clearings through out almost the entire country.
 There was a momentary show of anima- ton in the securities market Monday, when 1t became known that the supreme court had adjourned for the two weeks without handing down the decision in the antitrust cases. It was thought that ad- vantage would be taken of a brief respite from the influence of this uncertainty tc undertake speculative movement, The srpposition was dispelled the following day when ot the slightest response came from outside circles to the tentative eff fort of the board room element to in- argurate such movement. Opinion IS quite common in the financial district that steps intended to anticipate the SUI preme courts decisions in the stock mar ket at least have been completed. For the reason other causes for the lethargy of speculation are sought.
 Some traditional caution develops ir speculation with the approach of the period of a personal money settlement,
 The banking situation remains so strong however, that no symptoms of money market strain is found It Is rather the signs of trade retrogression that may help to account for the halt in stock mar ket speculation. The resignation of tho Mexican cabinet served to draw atten ton moro closely to the crisis in MeXlcc and to emphasize the determination tC uroceed with caution. There Is also much uncertainty over the scope of the activi ties of the new Congress which is so SCOT to assemble.

WEEKLY REVIEW 0F
 DRY GOODS MARKET

New York, March 26.-The demand for cotton goods in primary markets is at a low ebb even for this season of the year. Prices in domestic goods have been revised 10 levels materially un- der current replacement costs that will show mills profit and even at the lower prices the movement does not broaden satisfactorily.
 Wide sheetings have been priced on a basis of 2J cents for 10-4 bleached pequots and nearly all lines of A bleached cottons have now been re- duced to a parity of SH cents for fruit of the loom. On some numbers the buying has been large enough to take care of the output for 80 or 50 days, but on others the response to lower prices has been soy light that cur tailment of the output by mills will be forced.
 Curtailment increased during the week in eastern and southern manu- featuring centers. There has been some small business i'll cotton goods fer eX- port to China on basis of Tss cents for three-yard drills and cents for 4.7O sheetings The total sales have not exceeded 4000 bales and the purchases have been In vsry small lots, The job ping trade is reasonably quiet but re- taiiers are applying themselves stead- fly for small lots of goods for quick shipment. Wherever bulk sales are re- lorted they take place at the expense of values Wash fabrics and printed novelties sell well and mills mak ing cotton damasks and quilts fiLd plenty to do. The fine fancy goods trade Is light.
