Industrial Work Delayed
by Restricted Shipments
BY 1. v. SHANNON.
Special Correspondent Of The Star.

NEW ORLEANS. September g.
Complaints that business Is being re-
stricted by the delay to shipments
have been more general in this terri
tory this week than at any time
since the strike started. Work on the
city sewer system and at some Of
the large industrial plants has been
held up by inability to get material.
Failure to get cars Is interfering
with the rice and lumber industries
and exports of grain have been re-
duced one-third by transportation
difficulties
At the same time general business
shows material increase over
September of last year, although
there is apprehension that IL the
situation continues too long. an an
ticipation for record breaking fall
business may not be realized.
Fruit and produce receipts at this
terminal continue heavy and are in
excess of actual demand. Returns to
shippers. therefore, have been I'M
satisfactory.

Steel at Higher Prices
Moving Freely, Is Report
BY FRANK ID. MILAN.

Special Correspondent Of The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, September g.
Advanced prices for steel, due to the
recent wage, increase, have had no
deterrent effect here on the placing
of orders for equipment by railroads.
Such orders are pouring in in in
creased volume, accompanied by de-
mands for prompt deliveries.
Shipbuilding plants on the Della
ware are busy installing oil-burning
engines in both lake and ocean steam
ships, but the tendency to change
coal-burning plants on land to ac-
commodate oil fuel is not so marked
here as is reported from other Sec
tions of the country.
New building contracts in the last
week have not kept quite up to the
peak. but a change for the better Is
expected, provided higher material
and labor costs do not check pending
plans.
