All Lines of Business Better

Gains in Many Inxtances
Though Not Extenxive
Suggest Healthy Growth
and Stability of Trade.

Light.
Pittsburg. Pa.. Sept. 28.—A1l lines of
buainaw are improving in this terri-
tory and while gains in many instances
are not extensive they suggest a healthy
growth and stability. The di*trht i*
fueling tuc effect of steel plants re-
sumption and inm*ai>ed o|n*rations • *
that basic industry. Growing payro**
are making au impression on general
business.
The adv mcing prices which have been
recorded in some lines of the steel
products have been productive of more
orders than wore the reductions an*
Bounced earlier in the year. The en-
tire steel market is firmer and whereas
price cutting generally was practiced a
short time ago manufacturers arc now
inclined to hold for oi»cn <|uotation*
or still higher figures A further ex-
pansion in the steel output is taking
place this week and kindred industries
will show similar improvement.
The natural ga* com panics serving
this district shortly will raise rates
c<nt* per thousand cutie feet from 45
to 50 cents. This action is ex)M*cted to
increase domestic demand for coal. The
er-al market here is still dull with a
large part of the buying in the o|M»n
market. Wage scales in several branches
of the building trades have i>een agreed
upon this week and work soon will start
on important structures

CATTLEMEN DEPLORE
EMBARGO BUT ADMF
SITUATION FAVORABi
That Mexico Affon
Market Despite the
Many Handicaps.
The Mexican cattle embargo at til
porta of Laredo and Eagle Paas lid
been in effect fur nearly a month no J
and tbe situation remains one of my
tery. Every cattleman who ha* d<>t
business with that country has a di]
ferent tale to tell and if there are u
official Mexican announcements give
out ax to when th* cmbaigo will tJ
lifted und what ia the cause of the lon
delay in doing *o there arc at least
plenty of rumors.
The latest one is that interests hu\
ing control of th* railway leading bit
the interior from El Paso have heavib
invested iu cattle shipments and arc dd
ing a large bnaintsM. They pay none ••
the special taxes which Americans an
forced to make.
Two things the government Is gninj
to do it is understood is to extend thl
embargo indefinitely ami then when ii
is finally lifted to imoose an mldil
tional railway tariff to be called *spcl
rial train service tax.” which will
amount to it is brllevM. 2500 peso* ml
a fifteen-car train. Mexican market^
will n«»t rise in proportion to this ami
the additional duty will be a dead
to th* ahipjier. a* El Paso will nnt bq
affected by it it is claimed. |
Other charge* already in effect are
a 12 per cent duty a 3 per cent coun-
cil fee. nnd the unofficial but neverthe-
less real requisitions made by railway
employe*-
Should all this tnlk be true about the
Eagle Psm« and Jaarado ports it winild
practically mean their closure and
Central Text* shipper* to remain inde-
pendent. would have tu route by El
Pasn. What sort nf new imposition
might arise there under those condition^
can only be conjectured.
As it stands however bad as condi-
tion* are and promise t« be. the situa-
tion is still favorable to the American
■ ttle gm • . aa Mexico affords a mar-
ket. and if cattle are sold at tbe port*
they at l*a*t bring ordinary market
prices I’ । polateo out however that
if the shijowr could realize th* full mar-
ket vain* being obtained in Mexico
City without having to pay all th* spe-
cial taxes as nitnh as 215 additional
could be realized por head toward*
