STATE OF THE FOREIGN METAL TEADE
frFOAi. texxckau to ttik disinitch.i
"Sew Yoke, Sept. 24. The Iron Age re
ports the condition of the iron and steel
markets as follows:
American pic Dealers generally report
an increaing amount of business and more
widespread inquiry. The majority of the
furnace companies decline to sell beyond
this rear's delivery, making an exception
only when customers need iron for nest
year to cover on contracts entered into.
The majority of sellers are holding firmly,
but yet low price are occasionally made.
There ha been a little more activity
in charcoal iron and prices arc
held at a somewhat higher level,
particularly for delivery over a lone
period, of months. The low price of $17 at
Uuflalo. made some time sinco, cannot now
be repented, while on Southern iron $15T0 nt
furnace was named for Not. 1 and 2 ou mod
erate Mzed lots, with tlie privilege of in-crea-inc
to S 000 Ions. Tlie low est price thus
far tiindo was on a contract entered Into
Mimo time incc bv a St. Louis car eonipinv
t $15. Northern brands are quoted at lfi 75
eifi CO for No. 1: $10 O0lfi 50 for Xo. 2, and
14 OOffH 50 for cray for?e. southern irons
sell nt lfi(ff 17 for Xo. 1: $15 250 1G 00 for No. 2;
$15 SO-ffilfi 0 for Xo. 1 soft, and $H &3U 50 for
icroy lorpo.
Spicceleisen and 1'erro Manunnese No
buines of consequence is rciortcd in spie
srnleisou, viiicli wo continue to quote at
$27 STRESS 50 Only small orders have been
in th market for" fcrro manganese, and it is
diflicnlt to ascertain at what price the busi
ness was taken. Importers quote the com
bination price of M 50. tidewater.
Billets and Itod The market is very
quiet in w ire rods, which m.iv bo quoted at
$37 503s 00 tidewater. In billets there is
more inqmr for domestic, while forcurn
are dull, the leading buyers having filled up
for the halanrc of the year some time since.
Mnnufaetured Iron and Steel The negotia
tions on one or two large bml dings in this
market havo not yet been cloed. Generally
speak'ng. new business is on a moderate
scale. We continue to quote: Angles, LOO
2 10c; sheared plates LD52.23c; tees, 2 5
2.75c, and beams and channels, 3.1 on dock.
Steel plate" are 1 9."il5c for tank: 2.25sr2.60e

Steel Kails There has been more activity.
Eastern mills having boolrcd orders for
about 20,010 tons, including n number of
small orders for deliver- to Xew England
road. Pittsburg worKs have during the
pat ten davs taken orders aggregating
about C3 0T0 tons, w hich include one 15,003
ton lot. There are a number of inquiries in
the market, so that there if a slightly im
prm ed feeling. The allotments for the dif
ferent mills, including the Marvland, will
probably be settled this week. We continue
to quote $30 75S1 CO at tidew.iter.
Track Material We quote 2.25c for spikes,
1.753I.S9C tor fish plates, and 2.S0S.00e for

POKEIGN METAL MAEKET3.
The Pig Iron Market Is Kather Narrow, and
Tin Plate Iteslrleted.
New YonK, Sept.24. Special. The foreign
metal markctsare thus reported by the Iron
jtrjc: In London the movement in prices of
pig iron warrants hasbeen narrow, but upon
the whole the matket shows a firm tone.
There has been a good business in Clove
land nnd hematite warrants. Shipments of
the former are quite heavy and general con
sumption is better, chieflv in the steel trade.
Latest sales of warrants were nt 47s .Cd for
Scotch, 40s TJd for Cleveland and50s)d for
hematite Tig tin prices, after receding to
.91 for prompts, Improved under tire influ
ence 01 Straits shipments being smaller
than expected. During the past few davs
speculation lias fallen off, in tho absence of
encouragement from the 1 ading operators.
Copper is easier, with merchant bar
prompts off to Ti2 5s. Business in tin plate
is still restricted, and buvers manifest less
interest. Makers are at present freely offer
ing ordinary Bessemer at 13s, although ex
pressing confldenre in a better demand
shortly. The demand for steel ship plates
is more active and the market is firmer.
COKE AT A STANDSTILL.
The Market in a Quiet Conilltion, With De
creased Shipments Iteported.
SrxvrrnALr, Sept. 24. Special. The'eoko
muiketisnta standstill, and if there has
been any change during the week it hasbeen
for tho worse. A change for the better is
not expected soon, although some of
the piophets tell us that the trade
will Increase as the year progresses.
Tnere was a slight complaint some time
ago of a scarcity of cars, but this demand
seems to be well met at present by all roads
jnvmg a verj- lair supply. The" trade at
present seems to be fulfilling the prediction
of n coko company official, who stated sev
eral months ago that the coke trade would
lie very f.iir, at least until late in the fall,
when the iicn market may takconabrighter
look.
Considerable banking of stock material at
the furnaces, together with an excess of
lay-off days are responsible for the decrease
in shipments of 593 cars for the past week
below that of ihepievlons week. The shipment-
of the p.isr week w ere as follows: To
1'itisburg, 2,0V) cir; to points eastorntts
linrs.iS cars: Western points, 3.CSS; total,
l'i ices are nnelnngetl. as follows: Furnace
coke, $1 tD: loundrj, $2 30; crushed, $2 C5.

UNSETTLED MARKETS.
Chicnco Grain Speculator Groping In the
Dark as to Wheat Corn on the De
clliv Oats Follows Wheat and Corn
I'roUsions Inclined to 'Weakness.
CHICAGO The Board or Trade markets
were unsettled to-day. Wheat started
higher, but Xew York had big selling orders
here and the local crowd soon got suspicious
and buying became very cautioas. St. Lonis
was- also selling, the Northwest quickly
joined In and dispatches reported general
weakness abroad. The result was that tho
tone here quickly changed to weakness, and
there was a steady drop of 1 cent in Decem
ber. On the break there wras some .covorlng
and a reaction of 1 cent, but an easy feeling
again prevailed for a time. During tho last
hour December opened at 9S"4g9S)io against
SKc at tho closo yesterday: broke steadily
to !i;Kc, reacted to 98e: receded to 97c,
rallied to SSJgc, closing at 9SKc
Corn was weak early on acconnt of the
continued warm weather; the Cincinnati
J'rice Citrrenft estimate that seven-eighths
of the crop is out of danger from frost, and
thru tho total crop will amount to 1,930,000
bushels, and to the fact that some of White
& Co.'s brokers in the last corn deal were
suspected of efforts to liquldato some long
corn for his account. October started Jo
higher at 49J,c, touched 499c, but turned
downward at once to 47c. liter tho sell
ing pressure was removed and prices re
acted some. October sold up in $'e, cased
off to Iffir. grew Ann and closed at 49Jgo.
O.its fluctuated with wheat and corn, but
tho movement was confined to a range
of Kc
I103 products wore inclined to weakness,
with thG result of a decline of 10 15c In pork
and2J7c in lard and ribs.

H02JETABY MOVEMENT.
Heavy "Flow to the West, but No Pinch
Anticipated.
Thoro is no pressure nor apprehension in
Pittsburg. The market is easy and promises
to continue so. Being a creditor city, with
money always coming in for her products,
Pittsburg is seldom hard up for funds. Bank
clenrlng3 yesterday were $2,350,296 91 and
balances, $49.1,75.2 35.
In regard to the general situation the
Financial Clironiclc remarks: "It is quite
natural, at this period of the year, that ship
ments of currency to the ,Wcst and South
should assume largo proportions. Last week
tho Ncu York banks lost, in this way, 110 less
than $3,000,000. During tho present week
lilnments to the interior thrnnsli thn v
Yorfcsub-TrciiMtry have thus far reached a
total 01 over fz 500,000. or collide, tlie flow of
gold from Europe obviates, to a largo extent,
the danger of any real depletion In the sup
ply or money available for tbe purposes of
the market. At the same timo, It is evident
that the West will call for more money
during tho present autumn than it has ever
been known to do ip the pnst. j
"In banking circles there is a general ex-.
pectation of heavy and prolonged demands
for money in connection with the movement
of the crops and from the increased, activity
of general business;- i'hero is, however, a
marked feeling of confidence, and a general
belief that, while business is expanding and
confidence increasing, there can bo no real
pinch in tho financial situation."
At Now York yesterday money on call
was easy, ranging from 5 to 8 por cent; last
loan, 8; closed at '6 bid. Prime mercantile
paper 5"f7; sterling exchange aotive and
weak $4 Bo for 60 day bills and $4 834 for
demand.

CONSIDERABLE BUSINESS AND PRICES
STRONG TO HIGHER.
The Tractions Working Up to the Leader
ship of the Market Central and Pitts
burg Stronger Status of Rea Bros. &
Co. Other Striking Features.
Business on 'Change yesterday was fairly
active. Four stocks were handled, nnd 315
shares changed hands. The feeling was
even bettor than the business. The invest
ing public seems to hnve entirely recovered
from the effects of recent local misfortunes.
The strong features were the Tractions,
which are now the leaders of the market.
Central and Pittsburg wero higher. Pleasant
Valley held advanced ground until the last
call, when It declined a fraction in tho bid
ding, although sellers asked more.
Theie was considerable talk aDont 3-cent
fares on tbe Duquesno, and the opinion was
freely expressed that the cut would be"
made. That and quicker time, it was
thought, would put the road on competing
terms with its rival.
Real Estate Loan and Trust Company was
bid up a point. Philadelphia Gas gained a
trifle and Chartiers was suffer. The Miners
were unchanged. Electric improved on a
report that Boston was buying. Switch and
Signal found some support and advanced a
fraction.
A representative of Rea Bros. & Co. eald
their aflalrs wero Improving and they ex
pected to resume in a short time. Informa
tion from New York led him to believe that
White & Co. would be able to meet all claims.

SOMETHING LIKE A PANIC.
TWO PERIODS OF INTENSE EXCITE
BIENT ON "WALL STREET.
The Gonld Stocks, Including Missouri Pa
cific, Lead the Break Surprising: Bull
Resistance Shown The Rest of the List
Gradually Falls In Line.
New Yokk, Sept. 24. The announcement
in regard to the Missouri Pacific dividend
to-day caused general surprise and conster
nation, while tbe immediate effect upon
Missouri Pncific and tho rest of the Gould
stocks was demoralizing. Tho whole mar
ket felt the depressing effect. The opening
wns irrcgutarnnd exclted.and the weakness
in Missouri Pacific was most pronounced at
the outset, when 4 per cent was knocked off
Us price within the first hour. The rest of
tiie market was dragged down, and while
the decline was steady tbe resistance was
remarkable.
In the aftornoon there was comparative
quiet In the market, with some slight iwcov
cries.although tho marketremnlned feverish
throughout. In tbe last hour, howevpr.theie
was a renewal ot the depressing influence,
nnd the transactions again assumed enor
mous proportions. Missouri Pacific took an
other dip and touched 6, against 71K last
evening, while Union Pacific dropped to 40
anu luau.Y uuicib, muiiiuing iaoKawanna,
showed marked wraicness. Stooks which
had throughout the forenoon resisted the
decline now gave way.and Canada Southern
fell away 3 per cent from its best figuie.
The market closed very nctlve and weak
at about the bottom figures of the day. The
losses were very material nnd significant
among the lending shares, Missouri Pacific
slowing a decline of 9J percent: Union
Pacific, 3: Wabash preferred, 2; Cordage,
2f; North Amer can and Reading and Lacka
wanna, 2: Canada Southern, iU Atchison
and Burlington, 2H. and the others smaller
amounts, but generally between 1 and 2 per
cent.
Railroad bonds failed to partake ofeltheri
the excitement, activity or weakness which
characterized tho dealings In shares, and
the very moderate business was marked bv
few important changes. The day's business
was omy i,"4, uuu.

Country Produce Jobbing prices
The supply of grapes is far in excess of de
mand, and prices have found a still lower
level, as our quotations will reveaL Peaches
are not so plontilul as they have been, but
demand has fallen off, nnd only choice stock
brings outside rates. The melon season is
practically at an end. No more are offered
at points of shipment. In tropical fruit lines
we note a scarcity of lemons and oranges and
an abundance of bananas. The latter are
ripening so fast under tho inflnenco of the
hot' weather that prices of ripe fruit are
merely nominal. The great abundance and
low prices of domes! ic fruit are adverse to
thconsumption of bananas. Vegetables of
all kinds are a drug on the market. Dairy
products of high grade arc steady nt quota
tions, but common stock Is very slow. Strict
ly fresh eggs aro in short supply and very
firm at prices quoted. Following are revised

there is little likelihood of another advance.
Tho frnit canning time draws toward its

A UNITARIAN OK DIV0BCE.
He "Would Punish as Criminals the Con
tractors of Indiscreet Marriages.
Saratoga, N. T., Sept. 24. The devotional
exercises of the Unitarian Conference were
conducted this morning by Iter. Mary A.
Safford, of Sioux City, la. Hon. Carroll D.
Wright, of Washington, read a paper on
marriage -and divorce. Speaking of the act
of Congress providing for the collection of
statistics relating to marriage and divorce,
he said the investigation thus ordered and
mado was tbe first collection of such facts
in sociology ever made by a Government.
An examination of tbo laws of the several
States and Territories shows that marriage
is generally encouraged by law. He traced
a large amount of domestic infelicity, from
which arise divorces, to the laxity of the
marriage laws.
Mr. Wright concluded that he believes it
possiblo to properly restrict divorce, and
while thus restricting it he would make
marriage more difficult by making the
guilty party to Indiscreet and hasty unions
amenable to criminal law. Then the law
should be changed so that the State slionld
be a party, and no ex-parte divorce decree
should be granted, for that would punish
the innocent.
"What's that vou have ordered,
Jack?"
"A wineglassful of Johann Hoff's
Malt Extract. It's the finest thing
in the world for indigestion. I take
it regularly with my meal."
Indigestion is a much prevalent
American disease. Too much starchy
food will cause it. Rich food and
sedentary habits also. Johann HofFs
Malt Extract is a positive safeguard.
It increases the energy of the stomach
and the intestinal canal, and stimu
lates the secretion of the proper
quantity of diluting fluids. Besides
this, the extract reduces the chemical
reception of nourishing substances,
both in solid and liquid state (this
means you can eat a hearty meal
without hurt), as well as their con
version to the form most suited for
assimilation. The whole idea is it
assists nature. Eisner & Mendelson

they are dangerous. The genuine
