tOCAL lTtrlT MARKET TOP HEAVY.
'npplie Are Too Large- for the Holiday
Period.
The condition of the fruit market was
weak yesterday. Supplies of peaches, canta
loupes and everything else, except (rapes,
were large. While the demand was good.
It waa not sufficient to absorb all the ar
rivals. With only half a day for business
today and a holiday Monday, the prospect
for working ofT the accumulation Is not
bright. Prices were generally quoted lower,
tut this did not stimulate buying to any
a-reat degree, as the retailers could take only
a certain quantity.
Peaches were principally In evidence and
ao!d from .15 to 75 cents with an occasional
extra- fancy but bringing SO to 85 cents.
g Cantaloupea were quoted at $191.50 and
casabas at Grapes were In light supply,
lut the market will be relieved next week
by tha arrival of two and probably three
cars. Four cars of bananas were received

Confined Principally to Closing

OWING TO THE HOLIDAY
All the Leading Exchanges Will Be
Closed Today Foreign Mar
kets on Steadier Basis.
Bonds Are Firm.
NEW YORK. Sept. 4. Th stock market
waa affected as usual by the Imminence or a
three days' holiday. Dealings were connneJ
largely to the closing up of contracts by tha
trartera who are averse to the risk of a long
period In which stocks cannot be dealt in,
while some sudden event might Influence the
speculative situation. It became manifest that
In the decline of yesterday traders had op
erated with some freedom on the short aldo
of the" market. The demand which advanced
prices today was attributed to covering op
erations from that source. Not only the
stock exchanges, but the commercial ex
changes generally, are to be closed in tne
country tomorrow aa an extension of the
I.atxr day holiday on Monoay. Tha day s
dullness wae tha result.
Foreign market gave evidence of a suo
sldence of the uneasiness caused Dy mo
Moroccsn situation. ,
Preliminary estimates of the week cur
rency movement Indicated a falling oft In
shipments to New i 01 k. but not yet "'
clently to turn the tide of the movement In
favor of the Interior. Reports from Chicago
confirm the lightness of the demand for funds
from interior banks. The large aurplua held
by the New York banks leaves the subject
of little Interest from the banking standpoint
The sluggish demand from the Inurlor tor
currency tends rather to confirm doubta or
the rate of business recovery.
Ths week-s exports of wheat showed a nota
ble expansion. rWrif to 6.3H6.026 bushels , com
psred with 4.525.503 huhels last week and
only 2.92,1.710 in this week last year There
waa a considerable demand for foreign ex
change, nevertheless, which gave ear.y flrm
nesa to that market.
copper warrants declined In London without
affecting the recovery In the price- of copper
Industrials. The United States le
developed strength only when It became
known that J. I'ierpont Morgan had come to
his office for the first time after his return
from abroad today. . .
Bonds were active and firm. Totan sales. par
value. $2.260.JUO. United States bonds were

FALL TRADE E
DISTRIBUTION OX A LARGE
SCALE IX WEST.
But Conservatism Still Governs
Buying Operations Building
Trade Is Larger.
NEW YORK, Sept. 4. Bradntreeta tomor
row will say: Fall Jobbing trade, and to a
lesser extent retail demand, has been helped
this week by the advent of cooler weather,
the opening of the eeason of Fall festivities
and the continuance ot buyers' excursions.
Hence the consensus of report that distri
bution haa expanded at leading Northwestern
and Southwestern markets, while there is a
further gain shown at many Southern cen
ter. Enlargement of crop movements, par
ticularly Winter wheat and cotton, haa also
made for a further Improvement in collec
tions, which at many points are normal. But
the wefc-ht of testimony la that trade 1 tlll
below the aame period of last year and con
traction was already In evidence. Conserv
atism. In fact, still governs buying opera
tions, and there la a disposition to order merely
for Immediate or nearby necessities, pending
a clearer view of the political outlook and
the reaping of the later Autumn crops.
Iron and steel production la from 60 to 80
per cent of full capacity and the settlement
of the Alabama coal miners and the New
England paper-makers' strike has made for a
larger output. There la a further gain In
the output of lumber, particularly In the
South and In the Pacific Northweat. Build
ing trade Is expanding at Western cities, but
the preliminary August report show a larger
decrease from a year ago than was shown
in July or June, owing largely to heavy de
creases at New York City.
Business failures In the United States for
the week ending September .8 number 210
against 236 last week. 130 In the like week of
1907 121 In 1906, 137 In 1906 and 144 In 1904.
and ' Canadian failures for the same period
number 17 a compared with 27 last week and
15 last year.
Wheat. Including flour, exports from tne
United States and Canada for the week end
ing September 3 aggregate 6.396.026 bushels
against 4.635.603 last week and 2.923.710 thla
week last year. For the ten weeks ending
September S thl year the exports are 32,
094.327 bushels agalnet 29.209,118 In the cor
responding period last year.
Corn exports for the week are 40,051 bushels
against 39.100 last week and 507.104 In 1907.
For the ten weeks ending September 3 the
corn exports are 493,242 bushels against 13,
13T.6S0 In the game period last year.
UW8 IDLE MACHINERY AND CARS
More Work for Wage Earner Mews
Larger Retail Trade.
NEW YORK. Sept. 4 R. O. Dun ft Co.'
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say.
The steady decrease In percentage or
idle machinery and number of Idle frela-nt
cars swells the amount of money distrib
uted among wage earners and gradually
Increases the volume of retail trade. As
stocks of merchandise In the stores of re
tailer become depleted, there Is more con
fidence regarding the future and contracts
are made covering deliveries up to the end
of the year, but conservatism still domi
nates the situation, and many plans will
not materlaltre Into anything tangible until
the election uncertainty is removed, two
months hence. .
Liabilities of commercial failures would
have compared favorably with thone of the
same month last year, but for three large
suspensions, one of which waa speculative
and had no effect on legitimate business.
Packer hides are fully maintained de
spite declines In some other varieties, nota

Increase,
E IN THE RISE
Wheat Pit Traders Turn to the
Selling Side.
SUPPORT IS LACKING
Prices Move Within a Narrow Range
at Chicago Some Improve
ment in the Export
Demand.
CHICAGO. Sept. 4. Listlesaness perveded
the wheat pit today and prices were confined
to a rather narrow range of about c for the
day. Pit traders were inclined to the sell
ing side of the market, on the theory that
after four days of a steadily advancing price
a reaction was due. The support given the
market for the past few session by numerous
bulls was lacking today, and this was partly
responsible for tha bearish tone which pre
vailed the greater part of the session. Weather
In the Northwest was Ideal for threshing and
moving the newly-harvested grain and re
ceipts at Minneapolis and Duluth were largi
enough to afford miller ample opportunity to
supply their needs, the two points having iota,
arrivals of 643 cars, against 166 cars a year
ago. Flour sales at Minneapolis were again
reported liberal. Some Improvement in the
exoort demand for wheat was observable,
both here and In the Bast, but no large
amount of business was reported. Wheat for
September delivery was still badly congested,
because of the concentration of large hold
ings In strong hands, and at one time aold
at a full cent premium over December. The
market closed Irregular, September being firm
and the new crop months easy.
Rising temperature throughout the corn
belt having dissipated frost damage fears,
the corn market waa subjected to considera
ble realising, which caused soma' weakness.
The market closed easy, with prices He to
44?c lower. Local receipts were 248 cars,
with 58 of contract grade.
Oats were dull and heavy. At the close
price were WAc higher to c lower. Local
receipts were 192 ears.
The feature of trading- In provision wa
liberal sales of lard and rlba by local pack
ers, which caused moderate weakness. The
market closed easy, with price off CVt t
17Hc compared with the previous close.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
