' SLIGHT DRAWBACK.
Holiday Trade I Excellent Iron and
Steel Buwineis Active The
"Week's Bank Clearings.
NEW YORK, Dec. 7. Bradstreefs to
morrow will say:
There Is a quieter tone and reduced
volume of business doing at wholesale
In many lines, but this Is not unusual at
this season, and is partly balanced by a
larger interest fn retail and 'holiday dis
tribution. Weather conditions are silll a
drawback to the trade in Winter-weight,
goods, but it is notable that a better re
port comes from the Northwest than for
some weeks past. Southern trade ad
vices remain good, but retail business at
Eastern markets is still reported back
ward. In the larger lines of trade new
features are not numerous. Textiles are
quiet and rather dull with agents, pend
ing the opening of the Spring seaton.
"Wool and wcolens are still quiet. Cotton
is irregular and the market Is at a bal
ance pending the publication of the next
Government crop r port, which, however,
is expected to approximate 9.759.CO0 bal s.
The high cost of raw cotton has not yet
been ejualled by the advance in manu
factured goods. A hopeful feature tills
week was the taking of a large lot of
brown cottons for export for China. The
higher trend of values in November has
been duplicated in the first week of De
cember, and cereals, long backward in
this respect, have led the advance, which,
however, has not been steadily main
tained.' Finished products monopolize the ac
tivity in the Iron and steel trades, with
bars, plates, sheets and bridge material
most active. Even in finished lines
however, there is less reported doing in
new business, but Pittsburg and Chicago
mills are reported sold ahead 60 to 90
days.
At Chicago plates are scarce, and a.
premium is offered for early deliveries of
galvanized and blacksheets. The rail
market is active and 60,000 tons were
sold at Chicago this week, while the
total amount on the rail mill books Is
claimed to aggregate 1,000,000 tons.
While good sales of pig are reported at
some markets, business as a whole In
this line is quieter, without, however,
any lack of firmness. Much is heard
about forthcoming reductions in cost of
ore, coke and labor, and this undoubt
edly checks orders ahead, but higher
prices for rails are talked of, and South
ern furnaces are reported heavily sold
ahead. There is little or nothing doing in
Bessemer pig and billets. Among the
other metals, copper is active and firm,
but tin is weaker.
The shoe trade is cheerful and Eastern
manufacturers report Jobbers steady
buyers at the slight advance made some
weeks ago. Snow and wet weather are
Le'plng retail trade in shoes and rubbers
in Northern markets. A better report
comes from the tlour ml 1 ng n-lustrv, but
the demand is hardly what was expec el.
Sugar is higher for raws, but the re
fining branch presents the old appearance
of Irregularity, and another price war
is foreshadowed.
Wheat, including flour, shipments for
the week aggregate 3,432,159 bushels,
against 2.497.SS0 bushels last week, and
E.133,331 bushels In tha corresponding week
of 1S99. From July 1 to date this season
wheat exports aro 81.231.456 bushels,
against 91,301.273 bushels last season.
Failures for the week number 214.

OX CONSERVATIVE LINES.
Orders Ahead Give a Confident Un
dertone to Trade.
NEW TORK, Dec 7. R. G. Dun &
Cos weekly review of trade will say
tomorrow:
Business is progressing along conser
vative lines. It is without excitement
nnd -without great speculative activity,
but with a confident undertone, which is
to be explained largely by the fact that
leading concerns in most of the great
Industries have orders booked to employ
their machinery at nearly full capacity
during the months when curtailment was
usual No net reduction In working
forces has appeared in the last fo'tnlcht.
end a readjustment of wage schedules in
Eome branches of the steel trade is ef
fected without trouble. Prices of com
modities are generally steady and hell
day trade is brisk at all points. The
Couth Is particularly cheerful, with cot
ton and the rice crop coming in at very
full prices.
There Is no cause for alarm in the
small volume of new business at Iron
and steel centers. With the first sign
of higher prices there came forward
such a flood of contracts that mills and
furnaces booked orders sufficient to keep
the full force employed for months.
Hence there has come a more oulet con
dition, with less bidding for products.'
Fortunately quotations were not forced
up unreasonably during the week's
greatest activity, and now there is no
sign of depression. On the other hand,
bars are more firmly held, while many
Idle mills have resumed in this depart
ment, and sheetmakers also insist on bet
ter terms. Other forms of finished ma
terial are steady and at most points pig
is unchanged, although concessions are
made for Bessemer at Pittsburg. Nu
merous bridges are being erected by the
, railroads, and a heavy tonnage of struc
tural steel is taken. Other railway sup-
plies are In active demand, with rolling
stock urgently sought. Business in -iron
1 is" particularly brisk at Chicago. With-
slight moderation In domestic buying,
mora attention is given to exports.
Hides are easier, especially for country
lines at Chicago. Even after the declino
' of the past two weeks, the average is
above the closing prices of October.
Wool remains steady and sales are less
than half of last year. Manufacturers
purchase carefully and the goods mar
ket is unusually dull for the season.
For the first time In many weeks the
cereals exhibited strength, and some ad
vance was to be expected after the ex
tensive decline. When, was started up
ward by the foreign markets and orompt
response here compelled covering of con
tracts. Nothing of importance was
learned regarding domestic conditions,
aside from the heavy marketing at In
terior cities, as indicated by Wetern le
celpts of 5,825,402 bushels, ayainst 3.S02.78S
bushels In the previous week. On the
i other hand, exports from the Atlantis
Coast cities were only 2,214.409 bushels,
j against 3,359,677 bushels in 1S99.
Failures for the week were 287 In the
United States, against 221 last year, and
25 in Canada, against 35 last year.
l
SPECULATION LESS ACTIVE.
No Longer Bnylnfr Stocks "With Vigor
Good Beninnd for Securities.
NEW YORK, Dec 7. Bradstreefs finan
cial review tomorrow will say:
During the past week there has been a
further slackening of speculative activity
at New York. The public is no longer
buying stocks with vigor, and while ad
vances have been scored in various parts
of the railroad share list, they seem to be
the result of support by large interests
or manipulation by bull pools. The pro
fessional element has also continued to
exhibit more or less inclination to work
on the bear side, although so far as rail
road stocks are concerned, the impression
produced by their attempts to depress
prices has been comparatively small.
In the Industrials, however, declining
tendencies have been mpre pronounced.
The fact that the directors of the Amer
ican "Sugar Company, instead of increas
ing the dividend on the stock to 2 per
cent quarterly, as was anticipated, kept
the rate at 1 per cent, resulted In a
sharp break in that important security,
and later on there was a decline in Ten
nessee Coal, which also had an effect upon
the market at large.
American Steel & Wire has been the
object of a great deal of attention on ac
count of the stories which are circulated
of dissensions in Its management, and the
announcement that a stock exchange
house has asked for proxies for use at
the coming annual meeting, the purpose
beins to- effect a change In the manage
ment. Statements that the Iron and steet
trades, while in a sound condition, are by
no means booming, have a tendency to
create caution, not only In regard to In
dustrials, but the railroad list as well,
and offset to a considerable extent the
continuance of good earnings by nearly
all the leading systems. Humors of deals
and combinations are still beard, and sup
port is given to many different groups or
railroad stocks on this basis. It may also
be noted that while speculative buying is
of small proportions, the Investment de
maud for bonds and dividend-paying
stocks of the best class Is on a large
scale. The scarcity of high-grade bond
Issues Is noteworthy, and has led to a
marked demand for securities of what
may be termed the second rank.
The January disbursements for divi
dends and Interest will undoubtedly be
the largest In the history of the United
States, and the demand for securities In
which to re-Invest a considerable portion
of the fund thus released is being, to a
certal nextent, anticipates and discounted.

Frank Jasper, of Richmond, Eagle
Valley, said to the La Grande Journal
Tuesday:
"I am satisfied that about one-half of
the taxpayers of the Panhandle desire
that region to become a part of Baker
County, being engaged In mining-, stock
raising and other like industries as Baker
people. Baker City now Is the main trad
ing point for our people, and they would
find It convenient, also, to have that city
as a county seat.
"I think one-half of the taxpayers
would be glad to see the Panhandle
made into a separate county. On one
point all of the people m my section ap
pear to be agreed, and that is that an
effort will be made to have the Union.
County seat at La Grande. They think,
too, that this effort will succeed,"

LAST "WINTER'S EXPERI3IENT HAS
PROVED SATISFACTORY.
Growing1 Demand In Orient to Be
Partly Supplied Over Illinois Cen
tral and Union Pacific.
An experiment in exporting raw cotton
through Portland to" the Orient was tried
a year ago, and it was so satisfactory
that it moved the O. R. & N. to em
bark in the business on a larger scale.
The shipments of cotton from this port
were as follows:
Month.- Pounds.. - Value.
December;: 1S99 .". 515.54S ?35.730
January, 1M0 258,627 IS.60O
February, 1900 124,420 9,250
Total .S3S.592 J63.6M
' For several years San Francisco has
been exporting raw cotton to the Orient,
chiefly to -Japan, and in the past two or
three years Puget Sound has handled con
siderable of the fiber. Trains brought
cotton West and hauled tea East.
It is presumed that' the cotton- from
New Orleans will go over the Illinois Cen
tral to Omaha, thence over the Union
Pacific system to Portland. The Illinois
Central, like the Union Pacific, Is one of
the groups of Harriman railroads, and to
this fact it Is probably due that an ar
rangement Is practicable that will bring
a great deal of cotton through the port
of Portland.
It is understood that the O.. R.i & N.
agencies in the cotton belt will not be
manned from the Portland agencies of
the Union Pacific and Oregon Short Line
that are to be closed at the end of the
month. Men familiar with the business
in that field will be employed there.
of our freight conductors. When they
were put off'trains they would frequently
place obstructions on the track; causing
wrecks; hence . the necessity of the above
law.
"As soon a3 the law brcame effective,
our special agent on this division, R. S.
Mitchell, began working on the matter,
enlisting the aid of the different Sheriffs
and deputies in the counties through
which the road passes. All unauthorized
persons caught on moving- freight or
passenger trains were arrested and tried
before the different courts, and they
were given anywhere from 60 to 120 days.
After sentence they were sent to the saw
mills to work out their fines.
"Since the law went Into effect, we
have arrested and convicted 300 offend
ers, and the good results of this action
have been far-reaching. We have no
ticed a wonderful decrease in the num
ber of cars broken into and robbed. We
have not had an attempt at a train
wreck .since the law was passed- For
merly the tramps camped along- the
right of way and foraged on potatoes,
peas, corn, chickens and other farming
products, and anything else they could
steal. The farmers along the line all feel
the good effects, and are loud in their
praise of such a law.
"If m the Legislatures of the different
states would pass similar acts, it would
have a wholesome effect and put a stop
to the evil now resulting from so many
unauthorized persons riding trains, and
possibly would do away with the nuis
ance of the tramp."
PORTLAND'S NOVEMBER FREIGHT.
Increase of 500 Carloads Over No--vemuer,
1S90.
The number of loaded freight cars
handled in Portland In the month'of No
vember just past, compared with the
number handled a year ago, Is as follows:
November, 1900 J3.S04
November, 1S99 .., 13t303
Increase 501
Counting each carload 30,000 pounds, this
shows an increase of 15,030,000 pounds, or
7515 tons in the freight handled In the
month Just passed, over the same month
a year ago. These figures include the re
ports from the Terminal Company, the.O.
R. & N. East Side business and the
Southern Pacific at Jefferson Street and
on the East Side. It does not Include
trolley-line business, nor does It take Into
account freight handled by water craft.
At the Union passenger station 34,769
pieces of baggage were handled last
month, as against 29.3S6 for November,

month.
TRAMPS AND THC RAILROADS.
Tlie Alalinnia Law nnd the Benefit
That Has Come From It.
J. I. McKinney, superintendent of tJie
Mobile & Montgomery division of the
Louisville & Nashville, writes the Rail
way Age. of Chicago, as follows:
"In 1S9S the Legislature of the State of
Alabama passed the following act, which
has proven to be of great value to the
railroad companies, as well as the farm
ers of the state:
An act to prevent persons from beating then
way on railroad trains in this state.
Section 1. Be It enacted by the General As
sembly of Alabama. That any penon other
than a railway employe In the discharge of
his duty who, without authority from the con
ductor of the train, rides, or attempts to ride,

any railroad In this state, or on the draw
heads between cars, or unoer cars on truss rods
or trucks, or In any freight car, or on a plat
form of any baggage car, express car or mall
car, on any train In this state, shall be guilty
of a misdemeanor.
Sec 2. Be it further enacted. That any per
son charged with a violation of the 'first section
of this act may be tried In any county in this
state through which such train may pass, or
In any county in which such violation may
have occurred or may be discovered.
"Previous to December, 1S9S, our road
between Mobile and Montgomery was In
fested with tramps. Many times they
were so numerous that the train crews
could not control them. Depredations
were committed by them in every Imag
inable form breaking into cars, steal
ing freight, wrecking trains, etc On one
occasion, between Flotsaton and Mobile,
they took possession or one of our trains,
shooting the brakeman and throwing him
'off. and at another time shooting in the
knee a brakeman who had put some of
them off; again, four of them shot one
