CHANGE IS NOW DUE
Better Inquiry for Iron and
Steel Products.
END OF THE DULL SEASON
Increased Demand lor Finished
Goods of All Kinds Local Prod
uce and Jobbing; Quotations
Fruit Market Overstocked.
NEW TORK, Sept. S. An Improving Inquiry
can be reported lor manufactured Iron and
steel generally, says the Iron Age. The con
dltlons which have governed trade In finished
products .have been unsatisfactory during the
Summer months, but It is now quite confi
dently expected that a favorable change Is
due. Autumn requirements are usually suffi
cient to bring about a good Increase In the
volume of business. Seasonable products, such
as wire nails and wire fencing, are even now
beginning to feel a better demand. In the
case of structural shapes, plates and some
other products, a great deal of deferred busi
ness, hold up on account of labor troubles and
the unsatisfactory condition of the market for
securities, will toon come up for attention.
Pittsburg prices are pitched on a more cheer
ful tone than for some months, transactions
being on a larger scale and showing more
confidence "among buyers. The Influence of
good crops in the "West and Southwest, which
will be marketed at good prices. Is beginning
to be felt. Peports from other markets are
generully of an encouraging character. The
East is at present the least favored In this
respect.
Prices of finished products are well main
tained, with the exception of light sheets,
bar Iron and some minor products. Trans
actions In foundry pig iron are not on so
large a scale as last week. A great deal of
buying is in progress, but It Is of small lots,
.showing that consumers are conservative In
anticipating the requirements and will be until
they are convinced that bottom has been
reached. During the prevalence of high prices
costs were considerably Increased, and with
the exception of coke, these costs still prevail.
Quite a number of furnace owners find that
at current prices their margin of profit has
disappeared and preparations are under way
for the blowing out of a considerable number
of stacks.
An Interesting contest Is possible between
tho Independent sheet mills and the Amal
gamated Association. The mills have asked
for changes in some of the union rules to
enable them to compete on better terms with
nonunion mills, but their requeet has been
refused.
Monday Is Labor Day.
As next Monday is Labor day, it will be ob
served as a general holiday on Front street.
Grocery and other Jobbing houses will remain
closed during the day, and the fruit and com
mission houses will close their doors at noon.
Contracts Hops at Twelve Cents,
OREGON CITY. Sept. 3. (Special.) A hop
contract by which Joseph Johnston, of Needy,
agrees to deliver to H. J. Miller, of Aurora,
4000 pounds of this year's crop at 12 cents
per pound, was filed in the office of County
Recorder Stevens today. The agreement was ex
ecuted in August, 1902. and provides that the
merchant advance o cents per pound for the
harvesting of the crop. This is the first con
tract covering a crop of hops that has been
recorded In this county for three months.
Hop Contracts Filed.
SALEM, Or., Sept. 3. (Special.) Hop con
tracts executed in July were filed today by
T. A. Llveslay & Co., covering the R. F. Myers
& Son's crop of 20,000 bales, near Jefferson,
at 15 cents, and the L. J. Mascher crop of
25,000 bales, near Sllverton, at 15 cents.

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET.
Free Liquidation Follows Publica
tion of Government Report.
NEW YORK, Sept. 3. The cotton market
opened steady with January 1 point lower,
but the list generally was unchanged to 3
points higher, following the higher cables.
Shortly after the call, heavy liquidation set
in, which carried prices, rapidly downward.
There were Indeed occasional reactions, but
tho course of the market was generally toward
a lower level.
Then the monthly bureau report was read,
showing an average condition of 81.2 per cent,
against 79.7 last month and 6 last year. This
proved more favorable than had been ex
pected, and was followed by one of the most
active and excited experiences that the mar
ket has experienced since the early days of the
bull campaign. In an Instant September was
down to lL13c. October was 10.20c, December
9.93c, and January 9.92c The realizing by
selling orders came In from all directions and
prices were soon on the downward track
again. September sold at 11.11c; October at
10.07c; December, 9.82c; January, 9.60c, and
March, 0.76c
The close was steady and at a slight re
cover from this levelT which represented a
decline from tho highest of the week of from
50 to 71 points, with prices finally net 23 to
28 points lower. The transactions were esti
mated at 1,000,000 bales.
Dried Fruits at New York.
NEW YORK. Sept. 3. The market for evap

ADVANCE N BANK RATE
PRIXCIPAL EVENT OF" THE DAY IN
THE FINANCIAL WORLD.
Move by England to Stop the Out
ward Movement of Gold New
York Market Dull.
JfEW YORK. Sept. 3. Today's volume of
dealings was not greatly below that of yester
day, but the dearth of Interest In the market
and the dead level at dullness, was more pro-'
nnnnr.! , V. n n . t f -. ....
Wit., j iiuic. icDiciuajr o ujj-
ward movement of rrles was nrttv nrnmnllv
halted after the market got started, and thero
was quite liberal profit taking by yesterday's
buyers.' The decline was not far extended
and only a few of the principal active stocks
were depressed as much as a point. Read
ing was notably under pressure, the selling be
ing supposed to be unloading of some pool
Holdings taken on anticipation of a rls In
the price. As a matter of fact, the cc.nsldera
tlon of th natt heaw
thracite carriers has been, generally given way
to the effect of the discussion of the accu
mulation of steam ezes. ot coal, followed by
the shutting down of some of the cqllerlea and
some op the suggestions of a curtailment ot
production.
The principal event of the day In the finan
cial world was the advance In the Bank of
England discount rate Jby a full 1 per cent.
from 3 to 4 per cent. This Is one of the cus
tomary measures to oppose an ouUyord move
ment Of KOld. The advance Is nnt unnnml In
the Fall months, but Is generally delayed later
man mis. uut tne drain upon the Bank of
England's gold supply has Become eo consid
erable as to suggest the Interposing of spme
obstacles. Over $1,000,000 was taken from the
bank today and of this $3,500,000 went to Ger
many, which is the principal source of the
drain. The London market was decidedly de
prefsed in consequence .of the advance in the
rate, the price of consols falling lower than dur
ing the Boer war. The depression reflected In
New York from that source, however, was but
slight, and sales for London account were
small. This may have been due to the fact
that New York is likely to Join In the de
mand "bn London for gold before long. Our
foreign exchange market responded to tho In
creased "bank rate in London, but our money
market was practically unaffected.
Tho heavy liquidation in the cotton market
was due to the complete surprise at the con
dition of the croi reported by the Agricultural
Department and this was naturally a favorable
influence upon the stocks. The effect, how
ever, was scarcely perceptible. The contin
ued firmness In the corn market attracted more
notice. The slump In Colorado Fuel was the
consequent result of the passing of the divi
dend on the preferred stock and the heavy
requirements for additional capital which are
impending over the corporation. Metropolitan
Street Railway reflected the continued unfav
orable view of the turning back by the under
writing syndicate managers of their holdings
of the stock to the dominant interests in tho
property. The market became practically
stagnant lata In the day and closed heavy
about the low level.
Tho bond market was very dull and irregu
lar. Total sales, par value, $1,060,000. United
States 2s advanced H and the new 4s, H per
cant on the last call.
