THE STEEL MARKET.
Some Finished Products ouotea
Lower Than n Week Ago.

Steel billets are quoted at so cents per
ton less than a week age by the iron Age
and 81 less than q month ago The new
prices on bessemer and open hearth bill
let's at Pittsburg In $40 per ton and open
hearth sheet bars, Pittsburg. $50 per ton
Other prices are unchanged. The London
correspondent OF the Iron Age says;
"Cleveland iron Is quiet, but Arm on the
limited output. Continental steel gener-
ally shows an easier tendency, especially
bars. A rather better feeling has APP
peared for British steel. although the de-
mand for semi-fnished steel remains
slow.
THE Pig Iron Syndicate has given out
Its prices for the next quarter and has
made reductions more extensively than
had been expected In view OF Its recent
decision to leave prices unchanged. Hema-
lite and foundry iron were reduced vari-
ously ~ cents to SO cents a ton, Luxem-
burg foundry was reduced as to SO cents.
Sales at the reduced prices began in all
the various districts several days ago
THE production OF pig iron In May
amounted to 100000 metric tons. This
Is gain Of 10000 tons over April and
Is only $4,000 tons less than for May,
1913. For five months the make reached
7,756,s00 tons, which was only 209,500
tons less than a year ago The Imports
of iron ores In May amounted to 1.lS5,-
900 metric tons, or about $4,000 tons less
than year ago. The May export figures
for the leading classes of iron and steel
do not make favorable comparison with
those OF last year"
