THE BIG BOOM IN THE IROS BUSINESS. 4. Conpiratlie Statement of the Fallnres of This and last Tear. Beports to Bradttreet's and R. 6. Can & Co. show a state of increased activity in general trade, and more particularly in the iron business. The only disturbing feature is the fear of a possible stringency in the money market. IfrZCIXL TELEGRAM TO THE DISFATCB..1 New York, October 4. Special tele grams to Bradttreet't indicate the wider prevalence of cooler weather, which has materially aided the distribution of staple and other general products. The move ment from jobbers' hands is as yet relatively more active than from retailers. Merchants at "Western centers very uniformly report a better September trade than in 1888, with bright prospects for the coming month. Alaska salmon are arriving freely at San Francisco, the season's pack being estimated at 400,000 cases same as last year. Speculation in stocks has yielded to the influence of financial disturbances. The unexpected shipment of 11,600,000 gold to Europe in connection with the Brazilian loan creates some uneasiness and keeps money on a high level. The severest falls in stock values were in the trust specialties and Atchison, but the general list suffered also. Bonds are dull. Money on call at New York this week has ranged from 4 to 25 per cent. It closed on Friday at 6 per cent after rallying at 1012 per cent for tbe day. Foreign exchange is unsettled. Demand sterling Si 86X 87. AGBICULTUBAL PEODUCTS. There has been more activity in bread stuffs, with declining prices. Dealings in wheat are heavy, 46,000,000 bushels for the week, with free' movement and liberal offer ings. Prices reacted lc Stocks in sight September 28, as reported to Bradstreet't, aggregated L'G.734.000 bushels, 10.000,000 less than on October 1, 1888, and 5,478,000 bushels mere than on September 1, 1889. Exports of wheat (and flour as wheat) both coasts, this week, equal 1,624,493 bush .els, against 1,650,714 bushels last week, and 1,757,619 bushels the first week of October, 18S8. Total shipments abroad, July 1 to October 4, equal 25,839,207, against 33,201. 024 bushels in a like portion of 1888. In dian corn is bearish aud off Jlc, with heavy arrivals, and 8,255,000 out of the 17,748,000 bushels in sight are in transit toward tidewater. Bradstrcet's Australian cable reports available wheat stocks there and in New Zealand, October 1, amounting to 3,365,000 bushels. Poik has held its own at Kew York as to prices, notwithstanding the serious dis turbance at Chicago, with only moderate sale. Other hog products have fluctuated considerably, lard losing 4 cent. Live hogs at Omaha and KansasJCity have declined 10 20c on the depression in Eastern markets. THE IKON MATtKKT. Domestic iron markets are as strong as ever, but slightly less active, buyers of crude particularly preferring to wait forin creased output to come to their aid, in view of moderate advances in prices asked. Mills, forges, furnaces and bloomaries are in most instances crowded with work. Business failures reported to Bradstrcet's number 188 in the United States this week, against 180 last week and 146 this week last year. Canada had 30 this week, against 32 last week. The total of failures in the United States, January 1 to date, is 8,494, against 7,476 in 1888. It. G. Dun & Co.'s weeklyreview of trade says: A closer money market, as was an ticipated last week, has checked operations to 6ome extent. The shipment of $1,000, 000 gold to Europe by a firm engaged in placing two large loans "for foreign Governments, and therefore anxious to prevent further ad vance in Bank of England rates, was all the clearer evidence of the actual demand, be cause made at a small loss, reckoned at the current rate of exchange. A sudden fall in the rate from 54 88 to 54 BGi was followed by an upward movement again, and it seems not improbable that the exigencies of the Argentine Republic and the placing of tbe Russian loan may for some time to come affect the money market here. INCREASED ACTIVITY. The reports of business from all parts of the country show increased activity on the whole, though in some brancnes trade is not up to the September level. Chicago finds business larger than a year ago, with heavy country orders, showing a large de mand and easy financial condition through out the West. The year's receipts of cereals fall off a little, but of provisions are nearly doubled. Cleveland finds all branches improving, and factories full of orders. Pittsburg notes higher prices for iron and steel, glass bust iness active, with works all operating, and the coal trade dull, waiting water lor the river movement Throughout the "West excellent crops are the basis of large buying by the farming districts, and confident'hopes'as to the trade for the rest of the year. The bank ex changes for September show an increase over last year of only 2 per cent at New York. 2J per cent at Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago, and 7 per cent at all other cities taken together. TOO MUCH OF A BOOM. The iron business is in some danger of running into an unhealthy ''boom," so great is the anxiety of many to stimulate the demand. Several large furnaces are about going into blast, and Southern No. 1 is still sold here at 516 75, but higher prices than 518 are paid for desired brands, which are scarce, and structural, plate and wrought pipe are strong. But of bar there is not much buying, and some mills are inviting orders at 51 85. Kails have actually sold for 529 in con siderable quantity at Eastern works, but Philadelphia quotes 531, and the West cor respondingly higher prices. Only 3,300 miles of railroad have been built in nine months of this year, and it is still an open question how long the demand for iron and steel products in the aggregate will equal the constantly increasing supply. The wool market shows a better tone, be cause concessions in prices have induced larger transactions, but the high prices asked still push consnmers lo take a great deal of cheap foreign wool instead of Amer ican. A COilPAEATIVE STATEMENT. The business failures in the United Stales for the quarter ending with September were 2.276, showing a decrease of 86, or 3.7 per cent from last year, bnt for nine months the nnniber has been 7,879, showing an increase of 329. or 4 per cent. The liabilit.es for the past quarter have been swelled b a few large failures to 539,227,045, or 40 per cent more than for the Bame quarter last year, but tor nine months the aggregore has been 5105, 055,890, an increase ot 16 per cent. The failures in Canada show a cecrease of 5 per cent in number and 40 per cent in liabilities for the past quarter; for the nine months there have been only 303 less than last year in number, but 16 per cent less in liabilities. For the past week the failures reported number 172 for ths United States and 34 for Canada, against 192 last week and 221 for the corresponding week last year.

Mischievous Persona Stirring Up Strife Over the Knlshti Templar Conclave Tbe Decoration on Public Buildings at Fanlt. tSPEClAL TELEGRAM TO TUB PIBPJLTCH.l Washington, October 4. There is a great deal of gossip among those who are not Masons this evening on account of the decoration of the public buildings in honor of the coming ot the Knights Templar next week. Brilliant decorations similar to those used on inauguration day have been placed on the fronts of nearly allot the great publio buildings. In some instances the flags and festoons are the property of the clerks in the departments, and in others they belong to the Government. In any case permission to decorate had to be secured from the au thorities of each department Decoration of these buildings in the honor of a secret organization is without a precedent, and predictions are freely made that the pro ceeding will raise a tremendous row. The Catholics are very powerful here, and, as is well known, that church has interdicted its people from uniting with secret societies. The Catholics are wondering if, now that the precedent of decorating for secret or ganizations is established, the Government will decorate if the Orangemen of the country shonld conclude to have a general assembly and parade. t Another feature of the affair of next week which is arousing great criticism is the erection ot stands for spectators on Govern ment property. On the Treasury, White House and otber grounds great stands are being erected, notwithstanding an express provision of tie law that Government prop erty shall not be used for such a purpose. It is generally agreed that the precedent once established in favor of the Masons, no authority will dare hereafter to refuse to grant similar privileges to any organization which.pleases to muster In Washington. The general decorations throughout the city promise to be very gay, almost equal, in fact, to those of the inauguration occasion.

A Mother. ln-Lnw Charge a Son-in-Lnw With Beating Her Cruelly. Mrs. Susan Hughes, an old woman 67 years of age, made an information before Alderman Porter, in which she made a very serious charge against her son-in-law, Samuel Dogherty, who lives on Book Hill, above Center avenue. She states in the in formation that a week ago her son-in-law beat her severely about the body and knocked her around the room in a lively style; that, after being beaten in this man ner, she was carried from his home in an ex hausted condition, and a committment was secured to carry her away to the Poor Farm, where she had resided during the last week. She returned from the Poor Farm yesterday, aud secured shelter with Mr. Bobb, 2624 Fenn avenue, for some hours, when the pa trol wagon took her down to the Central station, trom which she was released on an order issued by Aldermau McKenna. BREWERS WILL NOT SIGN. President Eberhart Says They Cannot Grant tbo Ten Hours. President Eberhart, of the Allegheny County Brewers' Association, stated yester day that the scale of the journeymen brew ers, which demands ten hours as a day's work, would not be signed by the master members. Thev will not consider the matter as individuals, but a committee will handle the matter for all the members of the association. In the event of their officially refusing to sign the scale a strike will be ordered. The men are members f the Federation of Labor. The Trades Coun cil will hear the report of their committee, which will wait on the master brewers to night. They were told that a conference would be arranged, when the matter will likely be arbitrated. Extra, Extra, for To-Day, Between the hours of 8 and 11 A.

Psoriasis 5 Years, Covering Face, Head and Entire Body With White Scabs Skin Red, Itchy and Bleeding-Hair All Gone-ipent Hundreds of Dollars Pronounced Incur, able Cured by Cutieura Remedies. My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on my left cheek, spreading across my nose, and al most covering my face. It ran into my eyes, and the physician was afraid I would lose mv eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head, and my hair all fell out, until I was entirely baldheaded; it then broke out on my arms and shoulders, until my arms were just one sore. It covered my entire body, my face, head and shoulders being the worst The white soabs fell constantly from my head, shoulders and arms; the skin would thicken and bo red and very itchy, and would crack and bleed if stratched. After spending many hundreds of dollars, I was pronounced incurable. 1 heard of the Ctjticura Remedies, and after using two bottles Ccticura Resolvent, I could see a change; and after I bad taken four bot tles. I was almost cured; and when I bad used six bottles of Cuticuea Resolvent and one box of Cuticuba, and one cake of Cuticuha Soap. T was cured of the dreadful disease from which I had suffered for five years. I thought tbe disease would leave a very deep scar, but the Cuticuea Remedies cured it without any scars.
