STEEL TONNAGE
SHOWS INCREASE
Indication of Prosperity in o Gain
of 2O6, 296 Tons in Untitled
Business.

Now York Sept. 1.-THE United states
Steel corporation untitled tonnage figures
as of August 81 were published yester-
day, showing that there were orders for
e.16S,375 tons of steel on the books August
81, as compared with 5.957,O79 tons July 81.
an increase of 2O6,2e tons during the
month. The figures give one of the best
indications of the prosperity enjoyed by
the steel trade that have been SHOWN Tor
some time, as a large decrease in untitled
tonnage would not have been considered
Il bad sign In view of the large amount
of speculative business that was refused
during the month as we'll as many orders
that were turned away because of inabil-
ity to make deliveries as wanted.
The amount of business now on the
books of the Steel corporation Is equal
to about six months production at full
capacity. Coming after long period dur
Ing which there has been an almost unin-
terrupted increase each month In untitled
tonnage and also in view Of the high rate
at which deliveries have been made, an
| Increase in untitled tonnage with so much
| business already on the books bears out
I the statement that the present prosperity
In the steel industry will last for all OF
! 1913 at least.
AS compared with August, 1911, the un-
| filed tonnage statement showed an In
! crease OF 2.467.39O tons. The figures fol
August CT were the largest for the end
Of any month since September 81, 1907
The largest total ever shown. S.4S9,7lS tons
for December 81. 1906, represented a DIFF
ferent system Of compiling the untitled
tonnage figures and under the presen
system would be 100000 tons lower. Then
too. there was considerable business OF {
purely speculative character on the book!
In 1906 that does not figure In present fig
ures.
The following figures show the untitled
