-\ - * THUBSDAY EVENING. JTJIiY "W , 1902. *rs i *'3HJ DIMENSION SHORT Xoiig "Piece Stuff" Difficult to Ob tain Locally. LUMBER DEMAND VERY ACTIVE U p w a r d T e n d e n c y in, H a r d w a r e ' P r i c e s C o n t i n u e * t o - ' B e N o t e d . At present local white pine manufacturers report a shortage In long dimension or "piece stuff," as it is usually called by the trade. This shortage has been pronounced through out the spring and will undoubtedly be a mar ket feature in the future, owing to the fact that the longest logs in the northwest have been pijetty generally consumed. Very long logs are growing scarcer each year as the supply of northern pine trees diminishes and conditions have now reached a point where the manufacturer has no assurance that he can supply long lengths in ordinary dimen- sion22 /feet or longerfrom his own stock. In some quarters, it Is stated that manufac turers are beginning to recognize this %ct and are taking orders for long dimension timber with the understanding that if they cannot procure it in white pine, west coast flr will be substituted. Following the Fourth of July there was a quiet feeling for several days in the white pine trade and shipments showed a decrease. Now, however, business is much more active and judging from the way in which July has started out, the excellent record made during July a year ago will be exceeded in the total shipments of white pine- this month. From the south and southwest there is a rery active demand. Recently it was stated to T h e J o u r n a l that lower freight rates had been made into that section by tbe twin city roads. The intimation was conveyed to ifce trade this week that these rates would be restored and leading lumber manufacturers expect to be served with notice before, the end of the week. . . . With the restoration of freight rates, prices on white lumber will be advanced to the basis of the list, of May 7, which, on some grades will amount to |8@10 a car. Retailers in that section anticipating that they will shortly be obliged to pay higher prices for white pine, are. placing heavy orders now and are cover ing their future requirements to a very large extent. Receipts and shipments of lumber at this point show a decrease for the week, as com pared with the previous week," duo to the light trade over the Fourth. Receipts for the week ending Tuesday were X,488,000 feet, as against 4,544,000 feet the previous week. Shipments were 7,568,000 feet, as against 10,464,000 feet the previous week. Log receipts by rail were 238 cars, estimated to contain 1,328,000 feet. Stare)ware C o n t i n u e s F i r m . The usual mid-summer weakness which is frequently apparent in the hardware situa tion is not In evidence this year, and in stead of prices declining they are advancing on nearly all lines. Wedge and miner's tents have advanced 10 per cent. Prices for 1902 on galvanised tank heaters have been an nounced and are 25@50c higher each than the opening a year ago. Ammunition Is in active demand for staple shot gun loads. Lead pipe has advanced 25 cents per 100, and is strong. Paris green i3 in short supply and Is strong here at 17 cents for- arsenic. Move ment-is increasing. Nail-and wire mills are closing for repairs and production o these goods will be light this month. Many minor items in the list are strengthening, due to the strong position of the material markets. .....' The Implement Situation. - Sensational advances: in the price of binder twtn^siteentiy with further - advance* imT mtaent -constitute a feature of the market. Three advances of V & cent each have occurred in all the leading makes of binder twine in alde of thirty days. Another advance is likely before.the end of the week. The strong situa tion is due to the heavy wheat crop south west and the fear that there will not be suffi cient twine for the needs of northwestern farmers. Other lines of Implements are steady, with hay tools and machinery com manding the most attention at the moment.

New York, July 10.Everything- seems, t* conspire to keep the pig. Iron production be low the full capacity of the country, says the Iron Age. Considering all tbe ciroum* stances, the record of June, with as. output of 1,475,465. gross toss, was a good one* and it everything goes well the July product should go considerably above, the l.oDO^QOO-ton mark. The anthracite coal strike. Is still troubling the Lehigh furnaces, and complaints are now becoming more frequent ana more urgent that the cokemakera who art) running are not able to keep their customers regu larly supplied. There is some scarcity qf pi* iron for steel manufacture, but it does, not In volve any serious shortage, and the great mills have Uttle inconvenience from that source, . * - Interest centers In the foundry trade, ajjd it appears to be the Chicago district which is monopolizing a large business for delivery in 1903. A furnace company there is reported to have sold 75,000 tons for the first half, thus, with previous sales., disposing o% Its entire production. Further large raqutrles". including one for 28,000 tons, are In that market. In the steel market, matters are taking a somewhat different turn. In the central west, the summer slackness in the wire and. sheet trades is causing a shutting down of mills, which,- in turn, are offering for resale. ooth. domestic and foreign billets and sheet bars. In addition thereto, quite a good capacity of open heath steel is appearing on the markets. It looks, therefore, as though there may be an early readjustment, in the steel trade, which will bring this raw materfal more" In Jine with the finished products. The first effect of a lowering in the price probably will be a check in the importations: In the heavy finished products, the great activity continues unabated. There are reports that some round blocks of English and German rails are being offered at prices which look as though they might lead to business. In the plate trade, the orders for the lake steamers have been booked. The shapes also have been odd. The structural trade continues exceedingly active and there is no easing in sight The wire trade has been falling off in volume ann a jnuniber of works have been * ed to c)oae 4own. , the bar*, too,-there,have been reports-of adlng, while'the tube trade Is reported to be quiet THE MQJHNS U W Pr^nar^tton,, Be^neT M4e o Put. ting It Into Effect. Washington, July 10-Secretary Hitch cock has given,, assurances that every de tail of the prep.irations o putting into effect the Morris law will be pushed with all possible speed. He Is displeased with Ihe comments of the Chippewa, chief. Fiatmoxitb, in objecting to ~1$e proposed .disposition of the ceded Ian4s and tim~ her, and says there are ho grounds .for thje complaints by the Indiasu Plans are being formulated ior the examination and disposition of Indian timber.

When the facts are ascertained regarding, the allotment* yet to be made, so much of the lands aq are required will be set apart to make these allotments and the lands that are suitable for agricultural purpose will be opened lor settlement. v ..
