BOTIIIi; OF STEEL RAILS 111
1915 BY ROADS UNCERTAIN
Thus Far There Is No Sign of the Ex
tent to Wklet They WiU Depart
.From Policy of Buying Only For
Urgent Needs
New York, Jan. I.—"The Iron
Age,'' says the main development of
the last week of 1914 is tho action of
a number of m»nuf*etur«w of bars,
structural shapes and plates in advanc
ing prices from 1.04 c., Pittsburgh, on
earlv deliveries, lo I.loc. One inde
pendent bar inter»«t mad« the ad\ame
week. On Wednesday, December
30 tho Carnegie Steel Company with
drew 1.05 c. quotations and announced
as Ms minimum prices on the three pro
ducts, I.loc. for ilsTst quarter and 1.16 c.
for -second quarter. Two independent
producers in these, lines are reported to
have ta'ken a. simj. lar stand this week,
and the indications* are that the 1.06 c.
price is not being carried into the new
* The amount of first quarter contracts
booked at 1.10 c.. on which readjust
ments would 'bo accessary if any lower
price prevails on current business is «
strowg- incentive to sellers to hold the
new minimum.
Interest has naturally centered,
apart from that taken in this price
movement in three market staples, in
the outlook for railroad buying. Thus
far there is no sign of the extent to
.which rail roads will dejrart from the
policy of 'buying for urgent needs. Kail
orders were placed early this year; Sim
ilar orders are likely to come out early
in 1'915. The Pennsylvania and the B.
and O. are expected to buy soon. Some
Eastern lines gave 1914 rollings on
rails that will not be needed until next
spring. The aggregate of track supplies
soon to be required is considerable. One
Eastern rail mill has 'booked 8,000 tons
in the past week and other Eastern rail
inquiries are pending, including 4,500
tons for the 'Boston and Albany.
Due to the -reduced state of -railroad
traffic and the fact that new ears can
be had in six weeks, there is no hurry
to .piaco car orders, but a few roads are
looking up their needs. Prominence has
been 'gtiven in this connection to the
Pennsylvania raiiihroad's probable re
quirements of 9,000 cars of various
types. The Illinois Central is Still nego
tiating for 1,000 refrigerator cars.
Deceiriber bookings of all independ
ent steel companies have been consider
ably larger than those of November,
though few reached the 100 per cent-,
rate of gwirn reported by the Steel Cor
poration for the first three weeks of
this month, that being apparently due
to the inclusion of some special con
tracts with extended deliveries.
The -rate of mill operations in early
January will show a moderate increase
upon tne December average. Steel con
sumption is little changed, but spec ilia
eaitions have come in /better of late on
low priced contracts running out with
[December. Predictions range from 50 to
65 ceinit. as the probable operation
by the end of the first quarter.
foreign barb wire demand is hard to
measure. Probably 75,000 tons of what
is talked about is actually wanted,
much of it for Great 'Britain. TTurther
large inquiries for shrapnel bars huve
also come up. Russia is in the market
for :2,300 tons of cold rolled strip.
Tin plate works are exceptional in
running at nearly 70 .per cent, of ca
pacity. Since shipments for Pacific
coats canneries are to be by the Pana
ma canal earlier rollings than usual are
required.
The Standard Oil plate con timet, 20,-
0-00 tons for shipment in the first half
of 1915, has gone into an eastern Penn
syhania mill.
December inquiry for east iron pipe
coining from gas and water companies
and other private buyers has been the
largest for that month since 1906. Low
prices have been the stimulant. Balti
more has just bought 7,400 tons and
Chicago 7,500 tons. Cincinnati will
take bids on 2,400 tons and Boston on
3.500 tons. The first compilation of
statistics of this product shows the
country's output to have been 1,266,-
2 15 net tons in 1913.
Pig iron buying is still going on in
the Central West alter subsiding first
in the Wist and then in the South. A
Vra lunl increase in bfcist furuaee opera
tion is probable in the new year. Wher
ever furnaces have taken on tonnages
filling tHem up for several months, they
•have advanced prices, but tho gain has
not been general. Most Middle Western
furnaces will run tlurough the first quar
ter on sales barely showing a profit.
KILLED TRAPPED BEAR
But Not Until He Was Badly Bitten
and Clawed
Kane, Pa., -lan. I.—Abraham Per
sing, of Oil < itv, had a narrow escape
from death as the result of an encount
er with a large black bear near Chapel
Pork, eleven miles south of this city.
Persing was walking through "the!
woods with his dog, ,vhen he discovered
a bear with its front feet caught in a
trap. The animal attacked Persing,
who plunged his knife into the bear live
times. Theu the bear succeeded in
getting Persing's face in his jaws, at
the same time throwing his paw around
Persing's neck.
When the bear closed his jaws on the
left side of Persing's face the man gave
a desperate thrust with his knife and
pulled away. The llesh was torn from
his face, and he had sustained a bad
scalp wound.
In spit of his injuries, Persing was
able to return to his camp, where thirty
stitches were taken in the wounds by \
a physician. Persing later found the
bear dead.
