NEW YORK, Dec. s12.-The Iron Age
says a decision of far-reaching impor-
lance has been arrived at by the man
ayers of the United States Steel corpo-
ration. After considerable discussion and
a number of conferences it has been de-
cided to fix the price of lake ore for the
coming season the same as it was for the
current season, viz, $4.25, as the base
prices for old range ores at lower lake
ports. Some outside ore interests showed
a strong disposition to favor an advance
while in isolated cases a moderate lower
ing was advocated. While an official an
nouncement on the part of the ore pro-
ducers has not yet been made, 1t may be
accepted as practically settled that pres
ent ore prices will prevail for another
season.
The same tendency has been displayed
in certain finished lines The Beam and
Plate associations have held their meet
ings during the past week, and after
continuing the life of these organiza-
tons for another year have left the prices
to remain where they were.

consumption which is now going on On
