THE STEEL MARKET.
Surprise on Learning That August
Imports Exceed Exports.

Steel authorities have been somewhat
surprised to learn that August exports as
officially reported were but 20 per cent.
smaller than in July and that imports
were actually greater than in the previous
month This showing is regarded as re-
markable In view OF the demoralized ship
ping conditions that followed the outbreak
of the war. The August tonnage exported
was s6.59o gross tons, as compared with
1890 tons In July. For the nrst six
months Of the year the average monthly
exports were l4l, 900 tons. comparing with
high record average OF $4,000 tons q
month maintained for Ave months during
1912.
Aside from wire products demand for
steel continues AT low ebb. and the num-
Der OF price reductions IL increasing. Il
is claimed that a comparatively small pro-
portion Of foreign Inquiries has developed
thus far into actual orders. though pro-
ducers are hopeful Of ultimately obtaining
good tonnages from this source. A num-
her OF orders for structural material have
been placed recently, none OF which. how
ever calls for any considerable tonnage
Mil operations continue at around 90 per
cent. OF capacity. and tho outlook Il for
an even lower rate before the end OF the
month unless demand picks up apprcci-
ably.
The Daily Iron Trade says Railroads
appear interested in their next years re-
duirements for steel rails, and orders now
being placed with mills are for that de-
livery Slightly increased activity de-
veTops in Eastern pig iron market. with
Buffalo sellers more aggressive but foun-
dry price is reported shaded at Pitts
burg Wire mills are well filled with or
ders for barbed wire mostly for foreign
shipment More offers for sliding scale
contracts appear In Conneilsville coke re-
glons."
William Jacks & Co, iron and steel
merchants OF Glasgow, write under date
OF October . as follows:
THE market has again been n quiet

shipments from Middlesbrough for

against ll7,sl4 tons for the same period

an Increase OF 2,ss7 tons for the week.
Business has been extremely quiet

WEEKLY REVIEWS OF TRADE.
New Conditions Add 10 Handicap
Caused by War.

Restricted trade is noted by the trade
journals.
Dur's Rericto says: "As regards i'm
mediate business. conditions as whole
are those of somewhat reduced trans
actions The harvesting OF the great
grain crops OF the West. that of wheat
being tho largest on record. and the mar
ketlng OF these at high prices. with con-
tinued heavy demand for export, makes
for an Agricultural prosperity that to
some extent is communicated to Western
Industries and trades In the East the
improving financial situation inspires con
fidence and aids the plans for handling
the great commerce which Is expected to
come TO this country.
Certain trades as for instance, the
shoe industry and some lines of dry
goods. show considerable activity due
largely TO the Increased foreign demand
occasioned by the war But the grea.
basic Industries OF iron and steel. cop
per and coal are operating at much be-
low normal and the building trades are
depressed. Warm weather moreover. has
been generally unfavorable to retail dis
tribution of seasonahle merchandise.
ut Is recognized. however. that these
conditions are but the temporary reflec-
tlon OF tho crisis in Europe and the bust
ness community is already beginning to
plan for the enhanced demand for Ameri-
can commodities that Is expected 20 fol-
low the cessation OF hostilites Fluan-
cial conditions slowly but steadily i'm
prove In particular the organization Of
the gold pool materially helping the IN
ternational exchange position of this
country"
Brddstreofs says Trade reports prc-
sent an admixturc OF continued i'll effects
OF the European war. warm weather. de-
preston I'm the Southern cotton crop stu
alton, high rates for money, although
there are some signs OF easing, hand to
mouth buying, very slow collections. re-
stricted Industrial outputs and close scan
ming OF credits Under The circumstances
the trade and industrial situation exhibits
very uneven appearance. and AT this
juncture export operations, largely OF war
supplies provide the chief dip TO "a con
cededly disappointing trade
Warm weather over n wide area has
prevented free distribution of seasona bic
goods by retail dealers. and this develop-
ment unfavorably reacts upon jobbing
trade. At the same time conservatism IL
so widespread as 10 heavily curtail buying
for future delivery. while dlfnculty in oh
tanning credit likewise provides an add
tional check rein"

Norfolk. Va, Feb. 21.-The British
steamer Riversdale, Captain Loflmer,
from Port Arthur, Texas, for Rotter"

was hard ashore near Little Island,
on the Virginia coast, about IL miles
south Of Cape Henry. where she
struck last night in a severe northest
gale. The Riversdale's crew was res
cued. It is believed that the teamer
can be f1Oated. ,
The severe storm of yesterday and
TODAY having for the most part dleo
down, the high seas on n coast TO-
day were abating.
The stranded vessel was coming in
