II. 0. Dun & Co.'s "Weekly llevlow of Trade win eay tomorrow : The astonishing feature : s the magnitude of demand , notwithstanding prices winch would ordinarily check Jt. In products di rectly consumed by Individuals the larger employment and better wages of the hoik ing force give explanation. Efforts to meet the demand call for more stores , manu facturing works and machinery , nnd facili ties tor transportation as If every man'o wages wore In part diverted to hulld up the nation's machinery of manufacturing and distribution. The occasion promises quick prodls. the building Is largely for the future and It goes on In splto of unusual prices. Demand exceeds the supply of Bessemer pig , again raising the price for that and anthracite to $22.GO , southern foundry to 118.20 at Plttsburg , with heavy sales ; Bray forgo to $19 , and southern at Chicago ti 120.65 , with local coke at $21. Structural shapes woto advanced ? 3 per ton a week ago , cut nails 25 cents per keg this Week , platen $2 per ton , common bar Iron ta I1.87V4 at I'lttsburg and local steel 10 cents , with large Mexican ciders placed for pipe and good orders for bridges at Chicago , j Few works can promise delivery before December , and most ot the heavy contractn placed have been for next year's delivery. Recent advances In boots and shoco and leather do not prevent largo business and hides have slightly risen at Chicago. Ship ments of boots and shoes from Boston were C.7 per cent larger than In any other year to date , 14.1 per cent larger In August than In any other year and 21 per cent larger than In 1892. Uuyers press for early deliv ery. Manufacturers refuse many orders and eomo already have contracts farther ahead than they wish. Leather Is a little stronger with a heavy business. Soles of wool havu been modcdrato , G- 828,700 pounds for the week , and for flvo weeks 42,005,890 , of which 35,459,290 were domestic , and when the last great specula tion was In progress sales In the same weeks of 1895 were 67,669,292 pounds , ot which 89,118,987 were domestic. Some hesitancy In buying by manufacturers Is attributed to current prices and In quarter-blood washed fleeces and In unwashed and combing and light some concessions have been made , so that the average ot 100 quotations by Coates Bros. IB about 20.33 cents , against 20.10 cents August 1. Mills have strong de mands for goods and the clay worsteds have further advanced. In cotton goods the de mand exceeds the supply and many kinds have advanced , although the material has declined. The cotton year ends with spot quoted at 0 cents. The crop has surpassed air others nnd , with commercial stocks here and abroad nnd mill stocks about 600 bales larger than a year ago , the actual consump tion of American cotton seems to have been about 10,600,000 bales , so that a crop of 10,1000,000 bales would leave stocks about where they were a year ago If consumption Bhould remain the same. There Is prospect of Increased consumption , but also of a yield exceeding 10,000,000 bates. Wheat has declined , mainly because re ports of Injury In the northwest bavo been discredited , and the exports from both coasts have boon for the week 3,010,010 bushels , against 3,785,759 last year , and for the five weeks 16,114,685 bushels , against 16,875,839 lost year. The western receipts have been 19,513,474 ( bushels , , against 20,320,585 last year. Indi cating In recent weeks some disposition on the part of farmers to .hold their grain. The enormous exports of corn , 20,802,129 bush els , against 10,999,483 In the s'amo weeks last year , and the western receipts 19,722,109 bushels , against 19,620,787 last year , are not to bo forgotten , and have caused a decline of 1 cnnt In Drlco. Failures for the week have been 141 In the United States , against 171 last year , and 25 In Canada , against 22 last year. BRADSTHEKT'S REVIEW OF TRADE. mercantile Conimtmlly Ktiren IliiNl- nc Situation irltU CuiillilvniM * . NEW YORK , Sept. 1. Dradstreefs to morrow -will eay : "With an exceptional business already twokod for the latter portion of the year * ho mercantile community faces the trade situation with confidence , testified to by fcoth. vary firm prices and with quotations In a number of lines showing further ad vances. The most conspicuous exception to this Is found In cereal's , which are \vialc and declining. Lower prices for wheat , corn nnd , oats point to speculative liquidation of tired ( holders , who , with confidence In the future of prices have weakened under unsatisfac tory foreign demand , larger receipts ai.d Aha near approach of 'expected heavier crop movement. Corn crop prospects , though less roay , stiir point to a full yield. Cotton , too , has weakened slightly , chiefly because ot a good rain at the south , though Texas crop advices are still unsatisfactory and ptorles of permanent damage are forthcom ing. With these exception most staples nro either firmly held or evince progress up ward , notably in this latter respect , iron and steel of all kinds , but particularly pig Iron , which is now the center of trade in terest owing to heavy demand , particularly for foundry grades , nc advancing prlcrd. Trade reports would seem to Indicate that o. good part of the productive capacity ot the country is already engaged for the firat part of 1900. Sympathetic strength is evinced by other classes ot material , among the materials ad vancing this week being bar iron at neatly all markets , steel blirets , rolled iron and eteol , tin plates nnd nails. From the manufactured textile trade ex ceptionally good reports come. August wit nessed a general gain in the prices ot rotten - ton and woolen goods , evidently the ouU'omo of active demand , Judging from reports from loading cities. Scarcity of material and backward de livery of same arc reported by cloth man ufacturers lu many points north , cost , west and south. Among other textiles strength Is specially jiotablo in hemp and sympathy with London whence come reports that Philippine nhlp- jnents will shortly cease. Increase' ' strength bos been Imparted to hides am leather this week by tno launching of the new upper leather combination. Hoot nm shoe manufacturers are actively employed , but tbo margin of profit Is reported to bo exceedingly small owing to competition. Lumber retains all Its old activity and In Borne lines manifests now strength ns regards prices , The refined sugar war ap parently etlir continues , one result being the cumulation of consumption to a notable extent , A good business la doing in to bacco at moat markets , special activity be ing reported from manufacturing centers in Florida , whence it is reported that the next Cuban crop will be a very large one. In Industrial lines the situation is reported very latlsfactory. Employment Is general and rtrlkes and labor troubles are conspicuous by their absence. Business failures for the week are the smallest reported for a long time , number ing 131 , as compared with 151 last wrek , 10 * in this week a year ago , 19S in 1S97 , B33 In 1898 and 184 in 1895.

Bradstreet's Fi nancial Review tomorrow will eay : It has been a rather dull speculative week , the market being almost entirely In the hands of professional interests. In its earlier days the tone was heavy and many concessions were recorded , owing to the unfavorable aspect of the Transvaal dis putes. London's nervousness on that score was rellected on the New York market , al though this feeling tooK the form of an in- illbpositlon to Btart any largo movement , rather than of active bearlshness in the market nt large. In the last few days the hardening of money , Incli.int to the Sep tember 1 disbursement has also been a factor and would account , in n measure , for the relatively small1 amount of trading and the disposition of certain stocks which have lately been the objects of bullish manipu lation to recede slightly. The fact that next week begins with u holiday has also a tendency to diminish buslnece and to re duce the Immediate chances for actlva ruec- ulatlve manifestations. London , after its recovery from its feara , added to the strength. Its purchases , however - over , were not upon a largo scale and were confined mainly to a few low priced stocks. Although largo Interests In the Wall ctreet markets were not active , there was , never theless , evidence of support in various parts of the list whenever the room traders at tempted to sell stocks down. At the same time , manifestations of bullish activity and sentiment wore mainly confined to the low priced stocks and railroad specialties , some ot the reports of that class which fed tbo recent movement in their division of the list fulling back a little , while other prop erties of the same kind cams into moro or lean prominence. Nona of the fluctuations of the week in the standard steaks were of an Important character , and it was mainly in the indus trials and specialties like Consolidated Oao that any considerable sulngs were seen , al though on Friday the Vanderbllt properties shouod strength and aqtlvlty based on the annual report of the Now York Central road. The fact that the crops are safe and rail- rend earnings continue to Increase tends to support prices nnd diminish the prevalent feeling that prices for many of the dividend paying securities have fully discounted pres ent prospect. Ono of the noticeable features of the week baa been the strength of the steel nnd Iron group ot securities , some rep resentatives of that data creeping up - without out apparent effort or any conldedrable ac- tlvltiy. Several Important developments affecting railroad properties wore announced , A plan for tbo reorganization of ' .ho Kansas City , PltUburg & Quit railroad \\as brought out by tbo New York reorganization committee. This , however , seems to Involve the prob ability of a conflict with the rival PhlladeN phlu committee , and it must bo admitted that the securities of the company in ques- 5 X&S > ® 2 < j > SX2 ® ® ® < sx3X ® e < 2 , v To cure that Gout drink * it f Most highly endorsed by best physicians Puxton , Gallagher & Co. , distributers. - t\rrr\i\\A-\r - f \ \ \ \ \ > i-n . > ui \ \ Jlt-lL. Sold ly snerman & SlcConuell Prug Co , i ttS ® & & ® ® & 6 ! tlon have little Interest for Wall street A much more Important Incident , though It was hardly reflected by the market , was the declaration ot a 2 per cent semi-annual dividend upon Union Pacific preferred , thus placing that stock on a 4 per cent basis. Accompanying this was the announcement that the company Is to Increase Us pre ferred stock by | 25,000,000 , making the total of that clTiss of shares $100,000,000. The Increase , together with a further issue of $7,500,000 of common stock , IB to be used to retire the remaining shares of the Orc- Eon Railway and Navigation company and the Junior bonds of the Oregon Short Line. This plan will give the Union Pacific com plete control ot Its lines from Omaha to Portland , Ore. , and has led to a revival of the old story that a consolidation of the Union Pacific with the Chicago & North western , and possibly a lease of both prop erties to the New York Central , Is in pros pect.
