EXPORT MOVEMENT
INDICATED IN STEEL
BeIIigerents in Europe Will Be
Forced to Call on Ameri-
can Plants.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


PITTSBURGH. Pa. September 26.-
The definite refusal by investors to
finance large projects-railrcad. in
dustrial or even municipal, state or
institutional and quasi public-during
the remainder of the year, has put a
quietus on hopes for an Improvement
in the domestic demand for steel dur
ing the remaining months of 1914. The
only encouraging feature of the mar
ket at the close Of the week is the in
dication of an export movement.
At the opening of the European war
steel manufacturers generally anti
cipated that the first call for emere-
ency shipments for export would come
from neutral countries whose supplies
of steel, usually drawn from Europe,
had been interrupted by the industrial
paralysis in England and on the con-
tinent. Reliable reports in the steel
trade in the past few days, however,
Indicate that the early emergency In
quiries for export shipments have been
IN large proportion of cases from
the countries at war.
VIII Call for Large Quantities.
Some of these are for contraband
goods; more are for plates. bars, wire
Ao0S anu "iEc pTOOuCtS, rails ana even
structural materials and machinery. II
Is becoming evident that the belliRer-
ents in the European conflict will be
forced to call on America for much
larger tonnages of steel than was an
ticipated in the first flush of hostilities
On the other hand, demand for emer-
gency shipments to neutral countries
including South American ports-has
not reached the total forecasted at the
opening or the war. Conditions in neu-
.Iai countries. as respects the financing
OF large operations. are less satisfac-
tory than those in the United States
ana many South American and Asiatic
projects. both private and govern
nshta!' are held up Indefinitely.
Great Britain is asking for billets and
sheet bars in excess of 100, 900 tons, on
wnicn contracts probably will be
Closed within a week. Wire rods.
sheets and bars also are in demand, An
emergency rail order involving 1900
tons Tor Australia has been transferred
from British to American mills. Re-
ports are current in sales circles in
Ptttsburgh that France and Russia are
taking considerable supplies of steel
from American mills-nearly all of it
contraband-in addition to orders for
horseshoes for Russia and wire for
France. to which publicity was given
In press dispatches during the week.
Tentative inquiries are said to have
been received by Pittsburgh mills from
German sources as we'll, though re-
ports of these inquiries naturally are

MINOR|TYS MELODY
AIMED AT DEMOCRATS
Majority Members Will Be Afraid
to Go Home, Declares Rep
resentative Lenroot.
speaker, dear, listen here,


I'm afraid to go home in the dark"
That's what the buoyant republicans
of the House were humming at their
ancient enemies. the democrats. yes
terday afternoon after Representative
Irvine Lenroot of Wisconsin sat down
after making a ten-minute. eighty
horsepower speech, In which he gave
in plain language, just what he and the
other republicans think about the
democratic program of legislation. It
was conceded to be one of the gems Of
an afternoon given over to a field day
Of old-fashioned oratory, principally on
the subject of the Jones Philippine in
dependence bill Mr. Lenroot, however.
used his time in criticIsing the whole
democratic layout. including the war
tax bill. the ship purchase bill and the
proposal to enact currency laws for the
express beneft of the southern cotton
farmers.
There was a popular song a few
years ago." said the Wisconsin man,
(which was called Inn Afraid to Go
Home in the Dark Mr.. Speaker, I am
inclined to think that every democrat
who voted for the war tax bill will be
much safer here after that perform
ance."
Republicans Give Voice.
The republicans whooped and yelled
Mr.. Lenroot continued:
Indeed. doubt II there Is a demo-
crat who voted for that bill who is
not ashamed to face his constituents
from any platform in this campaign"
Representative Lenroot also discussed
on the floor rumor which has been
going the rounds of the cloakrooms
that the Philippine independence bill
has been rushed to the front to act as a
buffer to stave on the ship purchase
bill. which democrats do not want en-
acted.
Permit me to say" he declared. "that
1t Is my judgment that this bill Is not
presented at this time with any idea Of
Its becoming law. There is another
now.
1T has been generally understood
understood In the committee on rules
that In what were supposed to be the
closing days of this session emergency
legislation as determined by the ad-
minist-ation should have the right of
way. way and 1t was expected that all that
character of legislation would be con-
sidered before this Philippine bill
would be presented at all"
Measure Is Privileged.
Representative Lenroot reminded the
House that the cona-nittee on rules has
reported out a resolution making the
ship purchase bill. with its $50, ,000, 900
bond issue. privileged.
Now why was not that legislation
brought on Immediately following the
war tax bill? There was good reason
for it It would have been embafrass-
ing for the democrats. after passing the
war tax bill on the claim Of the Presi-
dent that we could not sell bonds for
the purpose of taking care OF the
Treasury because it would disturb the
money market. to bring on Immediate
ly after that bill had been put out Of
the way the ship purchase bill. pro-
viding for the sale of $4,000, 600 of
bonds to buy ships"
Mr.. Lenroot expressed the opinion
that the long debate which he said the
democrats hoped for on the Philippine
bill would get the bond matter out of
the public mind by the time the ship
purchase bill is considered, If it is
brought up at all.

MYSTERIES
(Pocatello Tribune)

Wayne Braley, the young man who
was seriously injured about three
weeks ago, by being struck across the
side of the head in some mysterious
manner, is out of the hospital, and
DIR. Wooley pronounces him in first
class condition, and the wound that
resulted from two operations, made
necessary to relieve cerebral hem
orhage will hardly be noticeable when
thoroughly healed.
The young man, whose parents re-
side at Blackfoot and who is a
nephew of Jesse Jones of this city,
is at loss to account for the exact
manner in which the affair occurred.
He was crossing the tracks, about
noon on the day it happened, and
states that he noticed two men behind
him. Shortly afterward he heard a
sharp report, similar to the snap of
pistol or the breaking of paper
bag. He realized that he had been
struck on the right side of the head,
but was not knocked out, and kept on
his way. Later he returned to his
home and it was not long until
numbness struck the left side Of his
body, all Of which Indicated to sur
egeons that something was wrong with
the right side Of his head. He was
taken to the hospital.
One operation was made ON the
evening of the oath and the blood
clot on the brain was relieved, and
small particles of fractured bone
were removed. Another operation

ed, After that time the young man
rapidly recovered and the temporary
paralysis left him.
He has tried to figure various So
lutions to the problem and does not
know whether some enemy struck
him with leather covered blackjack
and the conclusion caused the report
he thought he heard, or whether some
flying missile hit him, and as far as
he is concerned the case is shrouded
in mystery. And at that, he had
very fortunate escape.
