You need the options -showyvars- and -nolabel- instead of -blabel(name)-.
As described by the help file, the -blabel() option "allows you to add labels on top of the bars"

Subject: st: barplot x-axis labels
Dear listers,
I have been trying to make a decent plot similar to the included .do
file below, but I cannot get the organ names ("Nose", "Lung", "Kidney",
..) below the bars. Stata insists putting "mean of BiopNose", etc. when
I ask for labels, and puts in in the wrong place.
I am aware that the plot contains very little information.
Thanks,
Arnold Kester
