Sect. 25. R. G. Dun Weekly Review of Trade tomor row wiu say: While the temperature has been too high for best results in fall retail trade, the volume is steadily increas ing and manufacturing plants have ex tended operations still further.

There remains the drawback of low water that retards some mUl work and river transportation, while valuable timber has been destroyed by forest Area Most jobbing houses report a tendency prepare for the future on a larg-e scale, and woolen mills have less Idle machinery, but shoe shops And difficulty in securing the higher prices made necessary by the Arm leather market Heveral orders of Importance have been placed this week for finished steel and usual supply of small con tracts appeared, but the waiting at titude is still conspicuous among the large buyers, especially the railways. Foreign business is now normal, and much more steel is under considera tion for expert, including rails for Canada. As a rule, however, the railways are not buying beyond absolute necessities. Footwear manufacturers in New England report that supplementary contracts for seasonable lines come in slowly, and the disposition of interior buyers Is to defer operations a few weeks longer. While some makers of low and medium are able to operate factories full time, there Is not much business in -fine goods to main tain all machinery.

Leather Is less active, buyers operating only for lm mediate needs. Tanners maintain prices, however, with heavy sole leath er the only active feature. SPECULATION CENTERED WHOLLY ON STANDARD OIL It was Difficult to Realize What the Millionaire Operators Might Do. Market Kept Guessing. New York, Sept.

25. Professional operators in the stock market have come to practical agreement in calling (t a Standard OH market The atten tion of this speculative element was n'hoLly centered today on efforts to determine what Standard Oil brokers were doing. This was because of the conviction that the market is under the control of a comfWnation of cap! tallsts having affiliations with the Standard Oil Company. The follow era. of the i roeculatJon had Mm ble to follow the contradictory im pie method was to follow the move ment of Union Pacific.

When that stock advanced purchases were made either of that or other stocks. There was close observation of the operadona of members of the firms supposed to be employed in the interest of the dominant group. The difficulties of forming accurate conclusions from this rough method of deduction is obvious. As a matter or tact tne marxet iwas a constant state of hesitation and un settlement throughout the session. Open selling of large amounts of Union Pacific, Southern Paclnc ana Reading by the houses which were largest buyers yesterday broke prices from the brisk early advance, xne openness of this selling then came under suspicion and the market fluctu ated under this doubt.

There were diversions from time to time into other stocks, but without conclusive effect on the market The Hill stocks made an agressive advance without any news to account for it. Reports un confirmed said that Rock Island had secured- needed supplies of capital. There was a movement in the metal and mining stocks in concert The marking up of the price of copper at the Metal Exchange had some bear Ing on this movement Indeed, the whole market was affected by this Incident owing to the close correspondence there has been between the speculative movement of stocks ana the price of copper for some time nnt Notwithstanding strong demon strations at new points in the market the uncertain sentiment remained unaltered at the closing.
