Aalde from heavy dealings in United
States Bteel, which dominated trading-,
bujinetHi on tho locnl cxchanRO today
va comparatively llnht, nil pyes belnif
generally turned toward Wall street.
Prices took their ctio from the Now York
market nnd nil were lower. For the most
part losses were confined to fractions nnd
Ornmp nnd Electric StoraRB were tin
onlv renlly weak fentures.
While trndlnR In both Cramp nnd Klec
trie Storage was lighter thnn lms been
the rule, both shnres declined sharply,
llefore the end of tho first hour the former
had dropped 4,4 points nnd the lnttcr 1H
points. There wob no news to Hccount
for the decline In either Issue, nnd It wns
thought to bo sympathetic to tho reces
sion of the war shares In New York, these
two Issues having become bo known In
tho market here.
Itnpld Transit shnres made no response
to the fact that the jitneys had stopped
running under orders of Director Porter,
nnd the trust certificates of tho company
were traded In nt unchanged prices.
During the second hour t'nlted Gas im
provement opened Jp nt S3, unchanged.
Tho company's earnings for July, It was
said, were much better thnn for n num
ber of tho preceding months. It wns
pointed out thnt prices obtained for by
ptoducts were better. Tho bond division
wnn aulpt.
There wns no Incrcnso In activity In
the afternoon session, nnd while some
prices recovered, Cramp shnres remained
down.
Klectrlc Storngo regained the major
part of Its loss. Philadelphia Company
on few sales dropped u full point.
Union Traction moved up a fraction.
The most active Issue continued to be
United States Steel. Itcport had It that
tho Steel Corporation will soon enter tho
pig Iron martcct ns a buyer. Trndltm
ended quiet. With tho exception of Cramp
shares, In which there was a further
break of 2 points, making a loss of 6',i
points for the day, prices closed at tho
high of the day.

TRADE CONDITIONS
HERE LITTLE CHANGED
Hosiery Business Held Up by
Scarcity of Dyes Prices
of Leather High
In their weekly review of trade condi
tions In this city, It. O. Dun A Co. st.yi
In the local cotton trado it la learned
that the business still remains dull nnd
la about 36 per cent, leas than normal
for this nesson of the year. Prices aro
fairly firm, especially for weaving yarns,
hh this branch of tho business appear
to have become moro Active. Manufac
turers of hosiery report business Inactive,
which Is occasioned to a large extent by
tho scnrclty of dyes. There Is an optl
nilstlo feeling nnd a good fall business
Is anticipated. Ixical wool dealers, in
sdmo instances, report a better business
during, tho last week; but, as a rule, trad
ing has been quiet and nu Important
chnnKo has taken place In the general
Blluatlon.
Foreign markets arc said to be dull,
with prices easy. The West, however
still continues as strong as over, and In
many centres stocks are almost cleaned
up. The goods market continues to Im
prove In tone, with demands Increasing.
Manufacturers of cloaks and suits state
that the trade Is disposed to buy spar
ingly, although tho outlook Is promising
for a good fall and winter business. The
neason. It Is stated, will be late. Thero
Is but little chango among men's and
beys clothing manufacturers. Shirtwaist
manufacturers have made active prepara- ,
tlon for a good fall and spring business.
Trade during the last week among the
jobbers and commission houses In dry
goods has been quiet.
A general Improvement Is noted In tho
Iron and steel trade here. Demand for
pig Iron Is Increasing, and some dealers
here aro of tho impression that later there
will bo a shortage In supplies.
In the lumber market no considerable
changes aro noted. It Is reported by some
dealers here that tho long-leat yellow
pine business is improving and demand
increasing, but that business In short
lent Is unsatisfactory.
The leather market continues firm,
prices nre high and the supply small.
Glazed kid Is In moderate demand, prlcea
for raw material continue firm and ex
port business Is somewhat improved.
Shoo dealers report sales about normal
for this period of the year and collections
somewhat Improved.
There Is little change to note in tho con
dition of the cement mnrket. Manufac
turers report a fair volume of business
being done, and some good contracts aro
being placed and prices have slightly ad
vanced. The chemical market is -fairly active, an
averago amount of business Is being
done, although buying Is principally in
small lots for Immediate; needs. Condi
tions in dyestuffs remain unchanged, no
foreign dyes nre coming In and dealers
aro experiencing difficulty irl filling or
ders, although American manufacturers
are preparing to manufacture on a large
scale, l'tlces are high. The paper mar
ket shows nome little activity, manufac
turers and Jobbers report a fair amount
of business being done, although buying
