SreeL-ronsSS STEEL DEPRESSION GROWS MORE ACUTE Reported That Large Pittsburgh Steel Plant Will Close Completely Paper* to-day comment on the dis appointing developments in the Iron and steel markets. In many quarters It was believed that October would show the low point In the steel depres sion and that operations would begin to increase. Instead, however, further retrenchments are contemplated and It is reported that one large steel con cern In the Pittsburgh district will close down completely this week. The Iron Age In its summary to day says: "With mill operations averaging 50 per cent, or less, and with no tangible evidence that a better scale of buying Is near at hand, sentiment In the steel trade Is not improved. The belief that October would show the low poinv both In operations and new buying was expressed in high quarters as the month came in, but it is now only a hope. The small buying waves/of Jan uary-February and June-July seemed to indicate that the late fall would bring another, but the war has upset all such calculations. "Several blast furnaces in the Cen tral West have blown out in October, while others are scheduled to stop, and It is reported from Pittsburgh that a large steel plant in that district will close down before the end of the month. It is true that in some lines the amount of business booked has not shown a progressive falling off in October, but shipments on contracts have been for some time so much In excess of new orders that a still lower rate of operations is In prospect."

Late Dispatches Tell of Saccess For Allies Paris, Oct. 22, 6.55 A. M.—The lat est dispatches from the battle front in France and Belgium told just enough to make the public eager for more. The allies' positions having been everywhere maintained against the onslaughts of the enemy, to-day's official statement of the war office was the object of hope on the part of the French. Meanwhile the fighting forces, be fore resuming the contest sought anew to discover the weak spot In the lines of one another. The maxim of Na poleon's memorial. "Do not attack in the front the position you can obtain by turning" is apparently a maneuver j to which the Germans are adhering in I what appears to be a supreme effort.
