STEEL MARKET
IS OVERSOLD
Entire Output of Mills Not Yet
Completed Covered For
Long Periods
"The oversold condition of the lead-!
I Ing steel producers and the tightening
; of the steel market so far as concerns j
| deliveries this year," says the Iron
; Age to-day, "are more indicated by
the developments of the past week.
Leaving out rails, new buying has |
fallen off, but mainly because of the j
definite efforts of sellers to repress de-1
mand, particularly in bars, billets, j
plates and shapes.
"Europe is seeking round lots of j
war steel for this year, and the situ- j
ation has now gone beyond the point j
of fencing over the price; few large
makers are in position to consider it
at all. New capacity is under con
struction, but its expected output has!
been sold, perhaps in some cases more
than once. The Duluth plant of the j
Stpel Corporation is sold to the end of j
the year. New capacity in the Central j
West is also well pre-empted.
"Without regard to the demand for
particular finished products, the situ
ation Is still one of a scarcity of steel i
as steel, and indications are that prices
for some months will be determined
accordingly. In general, the attitude
of sellers both toward domestic and
foreign buyers Is that of letting the I
demand fix the price, and the week i
has brought a new crop of advances, i
"The rail advance of $5 has been se
cured on 9,000 tons sold by one mill, j
Some railroads scaled up their re-1
quirements beyond the average of re-1
cent years in trying to cover at the old '
price, with the result that offers of j
200.000 tons were declined by Chicago I
mills and of 100,000 tons by the mill |
at Pueblo.
"It is estimated that 800,000 tons of |
rails for next year has been booked
in the past six weeks, Latest con
tracts include 24,000 tons additional I
for the Southern Railway, 20,000 tons
for the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, j
20,000 tons for the Burlington in ad- j
dition to a large lot placed in Color-1
ado. 25,000 tons ea<h for the Chesa
peake and Ohio and the Reading. I
6,000 tons each for the Seaboard Air j
Line and the Chicago Great Western,
8.000 tons for the Virginian Railway.
The Steel Corporation's rail orders for
the week were 110,000 tons and 35,-j
000 tons was placed by frog and switch
works for delivery this year.
"Western car works are operating!
at 50 to 75 per cent, of capacity, and I
car buying falls off as prices rise. To
day railroads are asked 100 per cent.]
advance over the low price of last
year: There is no sign ow any relaxing
in plate prices. Contract plates for
second half have been placed at 3.50 c.
Two Eastern mills now ask 40. Ship
yard work is piling up. Several ves
sels were placed last week, requiring
20,000 to 25,000 tons of steel, three I
for Norwegian owners.
"With no further rise in prices pig I
ironn has shown good activity in spots.
A radiator interest has bought upward
of 50,000 tons, chiefly at Buffalo. St.
Louis transactions include 50,000 tons
of Southern basic, and Eastern malle
able interests have taken 20,000 tons,
while a steel works contract for hot
metal represents 25,000 tons. An
Eastern steel company which ordinal - -1
ily sells basic iron has been a buyer, j
Reports-of the inquiry for Bessemer
iron from France have been exagger
ated. About. 60,000 tons is wanted,
distributed over the year. On por
tions of this and of 40,000 tons for
Italy bids of $22 to $24 at Valley fur
nace have been made. A Pittsburgh
buyer has taken 20,000 tons of Besse-1
mer at s2l at Valley furnace.
WENT THROUGH PACKETS
When Charles Young awoke in his
bunk in the Brick Row the other
night, he felt a hand cautiously lin
gering around a wad of money in the
pocket of a pair of trousers he was
using as a pillow. He grabbed the
hand and declares it was that of John |

arrested by Constable John Gibb and
taken before Squire Frank Stees who j
held the case under advisement.

You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out Dandruff
The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you de
stroy it entirely. To do this, get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
It in gently with the finger tips.
Do this to-night, and by morning,
most if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive and never
fails to do the work.—Advertisement.
