THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17. 1898. 2 BUSINESS STANDS STORMS OF WAR XT IS PASSING WELL THROUGH DIFFICULTIES OF WIND UP. !&. Bush of Orders That Can Scarcely Continue for Any Length of Time. Trade of tho Entlrp Country Ex pands Whiai Advances Activity nt the Iron Works. New York, Sept. 16. H. G. Dun & Co., In their Weekly Review of Tratle, will Bay tomorrow: Business Is passing well through the difficulties that attend tho winding up of ft vnrK which are generally greater than those involved whllo war Is In progress. Tho rush of orders kept back while war lasted, by those who thought It shrewd not to take any chances, has lifted prices a little and cnused a larger demand for the time than can continue, hut though It has passed, there Is nmple evidence that the consuming de mand Is ery huge. How largo can only be Judged after some weeks of waiting, hut It looks as If those who wait longest are likely to pay most. The business of the country Is expand ing so that payments through clearing houses In tho s-econd week of Septem ber were 22.G per cent, larger than In 1802. nnd for two weeks 12.0 per cent, larger. From these and railway re turns, and such trade reports ns are Instructive, It must be concluded that much more business Is being done than In the best of past cais, though not ahos with much profit. Wheat has come foiward much more freely, and the pilco has advanced two cents, it Is supposed that the advance Is laigely due to milling demand com ing upon a mirmw tupply. Exports arc large, 3 007,876 bushels, (lour Included, from Atlantic and 201,052 bushels from Pacific poits, nnd for two weeks, fi,697, 320 bushels from both coabts ugalnst lO.iOli.SS last year. Receipts of wheat for two weeks of September have been ll.GB0,S05 bushels against 14,697,106 last ear. The foiclgn demand will be smaller and the American crops larger than last jcar. IN 1HON TRADE. With the starting of nineteen fur naces. Idle n month ugo, paitly not In cluded as jet, the weekly output Sept. 1 was 213,041 tons against 206,777 Aug. 1, and the drcicase In stocks 116,929 tons In two months, Indicates a con sumption but little below a million tons per month, Sttuctural work Is the heaviest ever known nt Pittsburg, though smaller than last year at New York. Bar mills are crowded, w Ith the general railway demand for automatic couplers and orders for new cars, SOO for one road and a large order for street cars to Japan, and plate mills nro everywhere crowded. The demand for pipe Is tho largest for a long time, and also for holler tubes, nnd the sheet mills are crowded west of Philadelphia, while the foundry consumption Is heavy, and the rail mills are not ready to accept orders which they cannot de liver for months, being engaged far ahead. Fnlluies for the week are 181 In the United States against 201 last ear and 23 In Canada against 40 last year. EARNINGS OF THE BEADING, Philadelphia, Sept. 16.
