 EXCHANGE REPORTS

Wall Street.-Stocks recorded low est prices of the week during to- days two hour session on further selling precipitated by labor con- ditoins. U. $. Steel fell a fraction over a point, allied shares broke l to 5, and motors, which are dependent on sstable industrial conditions, lost to 8. Sympathetic reactions of 1 to points were made by equipments. oils, coppers and feathers, rails also losing to ?. Tobaccos and a few special ties notably American Linseed and National Lead were conspicuously strong. Rallies in the later leadings reduced some of the more extreme declines. The closing was heavy. Sales approximated 450.000 shares.

 New York, Sept. 2O-The stock market during the week was one of hesitation due to labor troubles, es- pecially those which indicated a pos sible strike by the employees of the steel companies and the situation made the stocks of these companies cratic in their price changes One hour 1t was believed there would be no strike. The next hour a strike was almost certain to take place. The 1atest news indicates that the radical element in the conference is in the majority and will be able to bring about d temporary cessation of work in many and possibly all. of the large steel mills. Those in a, position to know are confident that the represen- tatives of the union have no outside backing and that if they succeed in forcing a StOppage of work they hope to compel President Wilson to come to their aid. Public opinion is against tbem trying to force an issue now instead of waiting for the industrial conference in Washington on October 6. There is no question that the situa- tion is a critical o@' and may be fraught with serious consequences.
 It is well known the market has been hampered for some time past through the fear of prospective tight money during the crop moving pr, riod, but last Saturdays bank exhibit showing surplus reserves of $45. 5.000.- 900 is calculated to strengthen the confidence of the investing public in the value of securities at going prices. To be sure a number of spe- cialties have been marked up to ex- treme heights which seem incompre- hensible, but owing to the fact that the floating supply of these stocks is kept comparatively small it is not a difficult matter for those on the in side to mark prices up to any figure they choose. There may be money still in buying some of these stocks for quick turns, but it goes without saying that they are risky proposi- tions and require careful watching. But the railroad shares, especially the dividend issues, are beginning to look cheap again. In all probability when the railroad situation is earnestly talk en up by congress a composite bill of some sort out of the many which have been introduced will be passed, which will protect the security holders. Market sentime ent on the street is di- vided at the present time, but the pre- ponderance of opinion seems to favor picking up the good dividend stocks when offered at conc sessions.
 It is small wonder, therefore, that the market should present an irregu- lar front Certain stocks, however, guided by their packers are not dis posed to pay much attention to un-

sRAosTREET's REPORT.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2-Bradstreet's tomorrow will say: With the advance of the fall buying season and the ac tivity engendered by active purchasing by retailers from western, northwest ern and southern jobbers, there is a rather more pronounced tinge of op- timism ir the trade advices this week. This, of course, does not conceal the fact that in some big primary lines and markets in the east there is quiet, this having It's rise largely in the con- tinued unsettlementsof labor; the threat of new.strikes, the doubtful outlook in the exchange markets and the further shading of crop prospects. It is inter esting to note however, ,sthat the rather unsatisfactory crop yields indicated in some states, notably of cotton in the south. accompanied by receding prices, and of spring wheat and oats in the northwest and west, seem to find little reflection in the trade reports at inter- ested nearby markets.

Club Endorses Yuma Hiohwsy.

At the meeting of the Mesa Com mercial club held Wednesday night, O. $. Stapley. who is on the permanent good roads committee, addressed the members regarding the proposed ex- penditure of the federal appropriation for Maricopa county on the state high way leading to and through Yuma to the coast.
 MT. Stapley stated that he had been called to meeting held on Wednes- day in Phoenix by the good roads com mittee of the chamber of commerce of that city, and that the question Of where to use the federal appropriation had been freely discussed.
 He gave it as his opinion that the expenditure should go as desired hy the state engineer, viz, exclusively on the Yuma highway, as against the con tention of the highway commission that the apportionment should be used on the roads mapped out and voted on by the taxpayers of the country. .
 After some discussion the club voted to endorse the position taken by Mir Stapley in the matter.

Enlarge Mesa Limits.

The Mesa Commercial club is talk ing active steps toward increasing the corporate limits of the town, and con- sequently increasing the population to the extent of the thickly settled addi- tions surrounding the present boun- dary.
 Mesa is but one mile square and there are hundreds of people living just across the roadway and adjacent thereto, who get all the benefit of water, gas and electricity, without paying city taxes.
 Because of this, and for the further reason that the U. s. census will be taken early next year, it is believed that the time is ripe for the proposed action. At the meeting the following committee was appointed to go defin- itely into the question and report at an early date: George A. Johnson, Frank c. Gurley, C. Fred Bracket, G. W. Silverthorn and W. C.
