IRON AND STEEL TRADE.
The Iron Age" says


The stagnation in iron and steel markets
continues to contrast sharply with the
large tonnage that is moving from blast
furnaces and rolling mills to distributors
and consumers. New orders are decep-
tive as a measure of consumption, now
that buying is for immediate needs, as
they the fall of 1909. when on ris-
ing market contracts were being made
running months ahead That prices have
not yielded under continued dulneSS is due
to months of profitable business and to the
fact that as a rule buyers are still TAX
ing full shipments under their contracts
There is no indication of any survival-of-
the-fittest campaign for orders at cut
prices. The closing down of the steel plant
and wire mills of the PittSburg Steel Com
pany at Monessen until September l has
been given undue Importance in some COM
Inents of the week. On the other hand. one
large steel interest at Pittsburs reports
that its specifications and new orders thus
far in August have been more than in the
corresponding part of July.
The gradual adjustment of production to
consumption Is indicated IN the case OF the
United States Steel Corporation by the
idle. against % August I, 30 July ! and 81

MOTHER SHOOTS:
KILLS Her SON
ACCIDENT DRIVES WOMAN TO
VERGE OF INSANITY
EIeven-Year-oId LIeweIIyn Cushman
MortalIy Wounded on Porch at
Family Home on Ranch
at Del Sur

Llewellyn CuShman, IL years old, is
dead, and his mother, Mrs. Charlotte
Cushman, is Frustrated at the Califor-
MIA hospital, lowering between life and
death, and moaning that she is her
sons murderer. Her inexperienced
hands were responsible for the acci-
dental discharge of shotgun which
exploded in the direction of her sons
legs, mangling one of them and caus-
ing his death.
The Cushman family reside on a.
ranch at Del Sur, in the Antelope val
ley. Everett L. Cushman, the boys
father, owns double -barreled shot
gun, and he had permitted the boy to
use it hunting rabbits. Thursday last
the gun, which contained a cartridge
in one chamber, stood in a corner on
the porch of the family residence.
Mrs Cushman took the weapon in
her hands and asked her son which
chamber was loaded. She did not know
that the hammer was up, and as she
turned to address the boy her finger
pressed the trigger. The mother was
almost thrown to the floor by the
force of the explosion, but she regained
her feet in time to grasp the boy in
her arms as he fell. The shot in the
cartridge broke the bone in his leg and
lacerated the flesh.
A Del Sur physician gave emergency
treatment, and the father and mother
obtained the services of an automobile,
there being no railroad trains passing
toward Los Angeles at the time, and
the wounded boy was placed in it and
started for the California hospital in
this city. The ride of 100 miles, over
rough roads, many of which bore traces
of the winter rains, was made in a
remarkably short period, but it did not
get the suffering lad into the hospital
in time to save his life.
The shock and loss of blood caused
his death few minutes after he was
carried into the hospital Coroner Hart
we'll satisfied himself that the dis
charge of the gun was accidental and
signed a death certificate. Now the
hospital staff is endeavoring to save the
life of the grief mother.

ASKS COMMITMENT TO
PATTON INSANE ASYLUM
Woman StartIes Court by Declaring
Herself Mentally Deranged-lun-
acy Commission Is to Act

The question whether or not a woman
who frankly admits she has insane de-
lusions is so deranged in mind that she
must be committed to the asylum will
probably be submitted to the lunacy
commission for solution some time next
week. The woman is Emma Howe.
She startled Judge Wilbur yesterday by
demand that she be sent to the asy-
lum at Patton, asserting her belief that
she is insane.
1t is the first time in the history of
the local commission that a person has
appeared both as complaining witness
and defendant in an insanity case.
Mrs. Howe said she was obsessed with
the belief that men were following her.
81 know this is a delusion,' she told
Judge Wilbur, in whose court the ses-
sions of the lunacy commission are held.
But" she added, plaintively, II cannot
rid my mind of this idea, and L want
to go to Patton
Investigation shows that Mrs. Howe
was in the asylum about eight years
ago and was discharged as cured. She
was sent to the county hospital to
await the meeting of the next session
of the commission.

LYMAN CAGES SON
FINED FOR SPEEDING
Youth Pleads Guilty and Rolls Gold
Piece Across Desk to the
Clerk of the
Court

A. G. Gage, son of Lyman ]. Gage
of San Diego, formerly United States
secretary of the treasury, was pun
ished yesterday in the police court for
violating the traffic ordinance. The
young man, who is visiting in Los An
geles, was operating an automobile.
He transgressed the traffic ordinance
when he "cut corner" at First and
Main streets. Traffic Policeman Rich
ards witnessed the violation, and he
ordered young Gage to accompany him
to Police Judge Williams court.
"I am unacquainted with the traffic
regulations in Los Angeles" said the
prisoner. "and if I violated the ordi-
nance requiring a wide swing at the
intersections, 1 am guilty."
Gage, who wore the most expensive
automobile garments money could
purchase, rolled a $40 gold piece across
the bar to Clerk Simpson, and paid the
fine, SO, usually imposed in such cases.
Other automobilists who appeared
before Magistrate Williams yesterday
Harry Hoffman and M. Gilman. Each
was fined $50. w. B. Palmer wearer
of a special police star, pleaded he had
assisted in arresting violators of the
speed ordinance, and when it was
shown he was pursuing a "speeder'' at
the time Motorcycle Policemen Coe
and Gardner arrested him, he was
given a suspended fine of $25.
Milo Bekins, arrested January 26 on
a charge of violating the 30-mile sec
tion of the speed ordinance, pleaded not
guilty yesterday when he was ar
raigned. He asked for a jury trial and
it was set for April 5.

DECLARES ABRAMS DROVE
CAR AT TERRIFIC SPEED
Prosecution Will Examine One More
Witness in Manslaughter Case

With the exception of one witness
who will be called to the stand Monday,
the prosecution in the trial of Monte c.

for the killing of Isaac L. Lowman,

who was crossing Seventh street with
Lowman at the time of the accident;
e. R. Pendleton and DR.. William H.
Smith were the principal witnesses yes

Dr. Levin stated he could not esti-
mate the speed at which the Abrams
machine was going, but that it was
running at a higher rate than he had
ever witnessed before. DR.. Levin add
ed he was struck and slightly injured
by the second machine, which, he be-
lieved, was engaged in a speed contest
with the Abrams automobile. 81 was
thrown to the sidewalk and slightly in
jured, while by companion was carried
more than eighty feet" said the physi-
clan.
E. H. Pendleton was with DR.. Smith
