WASHINGTON — The number of jobless Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits rose last week, while factory orders in August took a big spill. Jobless claims climbed by 16,000 to 317,000 on a seasonally adjusted basis, the Labor Department said yesterday. Wall Street expected a level of 310,000 for the week ended September 29. Investors are on edge over Friday’s report on September non-farm job payrolls. Payrolls fell by 4,000 in August, the first decline in four years. Still, analysts generally expect Friday’s report will show rising payrolls. The median estimate of 23 economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires is an increase of 100,000 non-farm jobs in September.
