I .kwLUJLii)^^ LITTLE DIEEEKE . 11l STEEL BUSINESS July Output Slightly Better Than June in Finished Steel; Other Trades Slump While admitting that business ln finished steel products is somewhat better during July than ln June, the Iron Age, in its current weekly sum mary points out that conditions throughout the steel trade is still away below normal. Too much stress, it says, has been laid in news dispatches on reported big orders pending in locomotive and car business. I tt says: "Business in finished steel In July has been somewhat larger, the Steel Corporation reports, than in June. Of independent producers some have done slightly better; others have found little difference on the whole. The Steel Corporation is now up to 70 per cent, in ingot production. An ad ditional Carrie furnace and one at Duquesne have been blown in, and at Youngstown one more Ohio furnace is to go in this week. Railroads nre now ordering out from the mills all the rails they expect to lay in the construction period of 1914. The Southern Railway's order has been increased and the total amounts to 40,500 tons —29,000 tons to the Tennessee Company, ti.OOO tons to the Illinois Steel Company, 4,000 tons to the Cambria Steel Company, 1,000 tons to the Pittsburg Steel Company and 500 tons to the Carnegie Steal Company. Undue emphasis has been paid in some reports on pending car and loco motive business, as though it were new. Practically nothing has been mentioned in news dispatches that has not been before the trade for some time. The Canadian rail mill at Sault Ste Marie underbid American mills on 3,000 tons of rails for the Toledo. St. Loula and Western, as recently report ed, but only 1,000 tons will be bought now and they will probably go to a Pittsburgh mill. Foreign mills which set out to get cotton tie busines by promising to go under this year's price of domestic mills whatever it might be, have cut a small figure in the trade. As has been seen in other steel lines, users preferred to Kuy at home and the for eign quotations did not cut deep enough to draw the business away. The market for semifinished steel continues drooping. A sliding scale contract for 18,000 tons of sheet bars, 1,500 tons a month, has been closed. Some business has been done at $19.50, maker's mill. The Tata steel mill in India, that is seeking to place an estimated surplus of 20,000 tons of rails in this country, has received a contract for 19,000 tons from the India State Railway. Pig Iron markets are more dis couraging- as to prices than as to vol ume. An Indiana purchase of 18,000 tons of basic brought close competi tion from Toledo, Detroit', Columbus and Chicago, which have equal freight. The price was somewhat un der sl3 at furnace. At Buffalo 45,000 tons of t)lg iron for the East River tunnel segments was divided between two furnaces."
