STEEL TRADE BUSY
ON FEDERAL WORK
Market Stagnant So Far as Do
mestic Orders Are Concerned.
Difficulty in Shipments
NEW YORK. Oct. p


There is nothing to the steel market
except Government business. The leading
authorities state that so far as domestic
orders are concerned the market is stag
nant but the contracts being distributed by
the Federal authorities are sufficient to
keep operating officials active.
What Is receiving. perhaps, the greatest
attention from the steel interests is the
continuation Of unfavorable conditions on
the railroad lines OF the country, many
plants being affected. by the fact that the
finished product cannot be sent out of the
yards and this has had a tendency to cur
tail operations to some extent.
When men have been laid on they have
left the vicinity of the steel plants and
taken employment elsewhere, the demand
for labor being large in other quarters. and
this ehas resulted In a lack OF sufficient
operatives when II has been attempted to
resume operations at some mills
The seiective draft also has reduced the
working forces at many pants, and 1t is
true. therefore. that the production OF steel
curing the last month or so has not been
up 70 what Il was previously However. the
request Of Judge Gary at the semiannual
meeting OF the American Iron and Steel
Institute, In Cincinnati. that steel produc.

bear fruit
Additional prices are to be fxed by the

opinion early IN the week that an announce.

SCARCITY OF BUYERS
SENDS COTTON DOWN
Lack of Competitive Offers
Causes Weak Tone, With Losses
of 13 to 33 Points
NEW YORK. Oct. q.


Buyers were scarce at the opening of the
cotton market and competitive offers
mainly from southern interests caused a
weak tone with prices declining l3 to 3S
points. Not until materially lower levels
had been established did the demand as.
sumo recognizable proportion.
A renewal of selling by the South helped
depress the market. Reactionary talk
around the ring continued. One of the
features of the trading was undoing Of De.
cember and March straddles to take profits
Then spot houses and some of the up
town interests purchased to a moderate ex,
tent. Commission house and Wall street
firms had orders on the selling side through
out the call
Weather conditions in the South showed
Improvement, II being clear everywhere, ex-
cept in Arkansas, Louisiana and Tennessee,
where rain was falling.
Temperatures were considerably higher
Cotton receipts at the ports for the day
are estimated at $4,000 bales, against 40,

CHAMBERLAIN HAS ALASKA FISH BILL
 ON SPECIAL LIST
WASHINGTO

WASHINGTON, - (Special.) - Senator Chamberlain of Oregon is planning to introduce an amendment to the revenue bill providing for the bonding of halibut at an American port, where the same are to be ship ped through a foreign country to points in the states. This is aimed at the Pacific coast fisheries, particularly the Alaska fisheries, which are large ly shipping through the Cana dian port of Prince Rupert to the detriment of Seattle and other coast points. Senators Lodge and Weeks of Massachusetts, are certain to fight the amendment, fearing the passage of such an amendment will cause a nullifcation of American participa- tion in the Newfoundland fisheries.

FIND FITTINGS FROM YUCATAN IN
 HOONAH CACHE

JUNEAU. - Special )-MemorieS of the sinking of the steamship Iu- catan in Icy Straits, near Hoonah some years ago, were revived the other day when Jack Campbell on his boat Clopex, brought to the city a fifty pound compass and pinnacle which he had procured from natives at Hoonah. The compass is in excel lent shape and in good working or der; the large hood or pinnacle is we'll preserved and there is not even a crack on the glass. When found the articles were buried under several feet of earth, in the town of Hoonah. Also with the compass and pinnacle were three lights, a stern light, Sa- loon light, and the light that drops down in the top of the pinnacle over the compass. It is believed the na- tives footed the ship and buried the articles to keep them from being dis covered.

COLD
 STORAGE SPACE
 ON ALL BOATS
Admiral Line is Preparing
 Alaska Ports To Handle Fish From

JUNEAU. - Especially - Starting an aggressive fight to win the fresh halibut industry from Prince Rupert and back to Seattle, the officers of the Pacific Steamship company have quietly increased the cold storage ca pacity on their boats on the northern run and have also ordered all steam CTS to eliminate the call at Prince Ru- pert.
 The fight between Prince Rupetr and Seattle has been bitter one for the fish business and one drawback for the southern port has been the lack of cold storage space on the boats. The Pacific Steamship company set out to remedy this fault and recently the storage space on the City of Seattle was increased to a capacity of 375 boxes. Hallibut is shipped from the north in boxes weighing 800 pounds each, making a storage capacity of 1S7 ,OOO pounds of fresh halibut on this one boat.
 Recently the company quietly had the steamship Spokane's cold storage capacity increased to the same ca pacity. The company's three other Alaska liners, the Admiral Evans, the Admiral Watson and the Admiral Farragut, each have fresh fish cold storage capacity of 25O boxes.
