A sensationally large crop estimate

vate bureau made over Sunday, caused
great deal of bearish comment dur

selling to considerable degree. /,
also resulted in some little liquidation
OF long cotton.
Bulls were not as prompt with their
support as they have been of late, anc
while no real weakness developed the
market took on a decided downward
tendency around the middle of the
morning, going 19 to 81 points unde,
the close of Saturday.
Scalping shorts were quick to take
profits and toward noon the marke
stood at a net loss of 15 to II points
but at noon the market was at the low

cur IN STEEL PRICES
Affects THE MARKET
Steel Common Sells on Stock
Exchange at Lowest
Level for Months.

NEW YORK. October 6--According to
rumors current in the financial district
today. independent steel and iron man.
ufacturers are quoting further reductions
in prices Of manufactured products to con-
sumers in this market and New England.
A cut OF 81 a ton In steel plates and sheet
steel was reported today and other reduc-
tons are said to be in contemplation.
So far as Is known the United States
Steel Corporation has. not deviated from
its recent schedule. nor has it in any way
intimated any change Of policy in this
respect. Price reductions have been
more or less general for several weeks.
but the enactment of the new tariff Is
believed to be- directly responsible for
the lower prices of the last few days.
Steel Common Sells on.
United State, Steel common and SIM
liar issues were weak on today's market,
Steel declining to 56h in the first hour,
its lowest price in some months. Most
of the selling was attributed to out-of-
town sources. particularly Pittsburgh,
where first-hand information concerning
trade conditions IL easily obtainable.
Some Of the leading representatives of
the trade declared today that much of
the adverse comment and rumor dealing
with conditions was manufactured for ul-
terror purposes. The steel corporation
and some OF the independent companies
were said to be working their mills at
between 50 and 90 per cent OF capacity.
Many Orders on Books.
The steel corporation. it was authori-
tatively stated. has enough business on
hand to warrant work up to at least gu
per cent of capacity until we'll into 1914.
It was pointed out that while there had
been some decrease in demand for certain
staples, this had been more than offset
by an increased demand for wire, tubing
and structural steel.
Officials of the corporation are watching
the effect of the new tariff law with con-
siderable interest, but are unanimously
of the opinion that they will be able to
hold their business against foreign COM
petition. They admit that foreign manu-
facturers may cut into domestic trade
along the seaboard of this country. but
declare that the foreigners will be un-
able to compete with domestic manufac-
turers for inland trade because of heavy
freight charges.

The western belt forecast for unsettled
conditions and lower temperatures prob
ably helped to check the selling move

figures of Saturday at midday.

COMMERCE OFFICIALS
HAVE RENTAL PROBLEM
Lack Money to Pay for Hous-
ing of Labor De-
partment.

Housing Of the Department of Labor is
still worrying the Department of Com
merce. Although there is provision in
the urgent deficiency bill for 5000 for
rent of the Secretary's offices, the Labor
Department is now using a building for
which it really has not money with which
to pay for the, rental. The 5000 Is de-
clared to be inadequate to pay house
rent for the new department.
With this condition facing it, the De-
partment of Commerce Is being forced to
leave three floors vacant In its new build
ing at 10Th street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue. until the situation regarding the De-
partment of Labor is cleared. 1t was the
intention of the Commerce Department
officials to move the greater part of the
census Office te, these three floors, but the
census force will be compelled to remain
where 1t is until some substantial pro-
vision is made for the Department Of
Labor.
The suggestion has been made that the
Department of Labor move to the old
District building on Louisiana avenue
This building. It is declared. would house
the whole department including all Of
it's bureaus.
The bureau Of labor statistics Is now
located in this building, and it would not
be necessary to move this bureau should
the department decide to take this build
ing temporarily. The $1,000 which Con-
gress has provided. it is said, might be
used to pay the rent for this building
for the remainder Of the year. by which
time Congress could make other arrange
ments for the new department.
The Secretarv's Office is now in the Will
lard building on 14th street. from which
the Department Of Commerce just moved
The bureau of immigration Is also in this
building. The bureau of naturalization
is in rented building on f street. and
the childrens bureau is at 9th and Grant
place in an office building. 1t is the de-
sire of the Labor Department of1cials to
concentrate al of the bureaus in one
