Much of the decline was caused by selling due to bearish week-end figures, impioved weather, with little danger of frost, and a notable diop iu spot sales thnough the South.

With the outlook for n huge volume of business, the opinion prevails that the steel compa nies aie lcnsonnbly reitnln of good earnings Jn 11120. Some appiehension has been caused by tlie tlneatened strike of the soft coal miners which has been set for November 1. The piocliietlon of coal is essential to the steel industry and no effoit has been made to minimize the cmbanassment ticeiuing to the tecl plants weie the fuel supply cut off. Notwithstanding this, there appealed no general eonceiii in impoitant qutir leis. and for the time being ut least the steel men seem willing to pin their hopes upon Washington to prevent the walkout of the inineis.
