Steel Business Is
Slumping Continuously

Leading iron and steel trade jour-
nails this week report q continued fall
ing off in the scale of operations in
these trades. A small increase in ex-
port business is not counted upon to
offset the decreasing domestic demand.
The Iron Age to-day says:
while the drift of the steel trade to
a lower scale of operations is still
unchecked. it is to be noted that the
reduction of working forces is very
slight from week to week. This gives
ground for the opinion that even a
small buying movement might bring
turn for the better. AS the belief
longer than has been commonly
thought, its disastrous effects on
American trade are more thought of,
with less disposition among steel man
ufacturers to count on large exports to
help out a home situation that was
bad before the war came.
"The course of the British iron in
dustry, for example, has been dis
appointing. Therer has been a cur
tailment of blast furnace, steel works
and rolling mill operations there, in
the face of the cutting off of imports
from Germany, which means that
little business can be done in England
by American steel companies. That
British steel exports have suffered
more than was looked for has caused
much uneasiness. Low prices have re-
suited. One British rail mill has
taken 10000 tons of Australian rails
and another 10000 tons for South
Africa, against keen competition from
Canada, and, presumably, from this
country.
"The Bridge Builders and Structural
Society reports that contracts taken by
the bridge and structural shops of the
country in September amounted tC
3S.5 per cent. of a months capacity
against 27.5 per cent. in August. Still
the first nine months of this year show
larger total than that of the frs
nine months of 1913"

Says "NeutrGl Belgium"
Accepted British Offer

Washington, D. c., oct. 15.-Count
Won Bernstorff, the German Ambas-
sador here, to-day issued the follow
ing statement:
Concerning the Anglo Belgian mill
tary agreement existing since 1906. a
formal denial has been issued by Eng
land which proves nothing. Docu-
ments are in the hands of the German
authorities and will be published in
full. The facts are that the so-called
neutrality concluded a military agree
ment with England which provided
for landing of British troops in this
neutral country Documents prove
that by it's own free will neutral Bel
GUM accepted the British offer and
decided to fight on the side of the
allies"

Cured His RUPTURE

: I was badly ruptured while lifting a
strunk several years ago. Doctors said
my only hope of cure was an oper-
alton. Trusses did me no good. Final
ly got hold of something that quickly
and completely cured me. Years have
passed and the rupture has never re-
turned, although 1 am doing hard work
az a carpenter. There was no oper-
alton, no lost time, no trouble. / have
nothing to sell, but will give full in
formation about how you may find a
complete cure without operation. if you
write to me- Eugene NJ. Pullen, Car
penter, 311A Marcellus Avenue Manas-
uuan, N. ]. Better cut out this notice
and show it to any others who are
ruptured-you may save life or at
least stop the misery of rupture and
the worry and danger of an operation.
