STEEL MILLS SLACKeN
Operation Now at 65 Per Cent
Gut in Price of Pipe.

Authorities IN the iron and steer traces
report decreased buying has reduced steel
mill operation to ~ per cent OF capacity
or less Buying continues light. with the
tendency OF prices illustrated i'm n cut OF
81 r ton i'm standard steel pipe. Some i'm
pulse is hoped for from the stimulus to
armament programmes arising from hos
tilities in Mexico.
The iron Age" will say to-day: The
driving up Of new business i'm most forms
of rolled products has been telling fur
Their on the steel works operations. ana
the average OF employed capacity is now
probably g. per cent OF under. on new
business buyers are manpuvrng for eN-
treme concessions. but sellers take much
the same attitude as IN November and
December-that the tonnage coming out
is too small to provoke savage cuts.
The tendency or prices is recognized
i'm the announcement of 81 ton reduc-
ton in standard steel pipe of the Ma
tional Tube Company This is return
t. the prices prevailing tcfore the adj
vance OF February ..
Adjustment of capacity to demand IS
bringing down the pig iron output Of the
steel companies Most of them accumu-
lated pig iron IN March and more fur
naces are likely 60 90 out soJn II demand
does not pick up. Several stoppages on
the merchant list are planned also.
The pig iron situation will be consid-
cred at n meeting OF furnace companies
i'm New York April 3D. Makers in the
valley and Lake Lric districts apart from
Buffalo footed rr 5000 tons greater ship
mcuts in March than in February and
pulled down stocks moro than 10000 tons.
But new business is distressiugly small.
aud there have been cases Of both low
and high quotations producing the same
effect-the putting off of purchases.
The Iron Trade Review viii say.
The steel trade was stimulated sharply
Immediately following the declaration of
war against Spain, and while present
conditions offer little parallel with that
time, the general view j. held that the
industry IS likely to gain som" impulse
from the weeks historic developments.
Generally. the trade movement IN the in
dustry mas remained sluggish and apart
from some mild broadening in season
able lines has shown some small inn
provement Railroad buying continues 10

LAD RISKS LIFE
TO SAVE CHILD
Thirteen Year Old Leaps
Into River and Drags
Out Little Girl.
STRUGGLES FIFTEEN
MINUTES IN WATER
Young Hero Hurries Away and
Does Not Learn Till Later
of Babes Death.

In tho East River near the old Wall
st. ferry slip at the foot Of Montague
ST.. Brooklyn. last night, thirteen year
old William Simpson struggled i'm the
water for fifteen minutes to save the
life Of nve-year- Ruth Miller, ana
brought her ashore. The little girl died
a few minutes afterward.
William was playing ball with some
boys a block and a half away from
the old ferry site at O'Clock last even
ing when screams came from the dIrec-
ton OF the water The boys ran to the
high wall at the waterfront and saw
the head of the Miller child bobbing in
the water twenty feet from shore.
Screaming on the wall was Annie
cullen. about the same age as the
Miller baby
The Simpson boy clambcrcd over the
wall and began O. work his way down
to the water level Hall way he lost
his grip and fell eight feet, landing on
his back in the water Then he struck
seen the child's head.
AS the Miller child came 10 the sur
face young Simpson grabbed her skirt
and started back for the wall. The
swirl OF the tide carried him and his
burden among some old ferry piles. He
seized a protruding spike and held on
until he could get strength enough TO
start for landing place.
George Miller, an older brother OF the
little girl, ran for a rope, and with the
help of a policeman lassoed the young
swimmer drawing him ashore. Some
one in the crowd that had collected
sent a call for an ambulance 70 the
Brooklyn Hospital and DR.. Heyman
arrived just as the rescue was made.
The Miller child was breathing feebly
when she was taken from the water
but died within a few minutes The
Simpson boy had hurried away as soon
as he was pulled out and it was not
until late last night that he found that
his labors had been in vain. He told
his mother simply that he Fad pulled
i kid out Of the water
The Simpson boy does not look mora
than ten wears old. He is q pupil at
Public school - and attends ST.
Charles's Roman Catholic Church. He
is the Youngest Of a family Of four,

ROYAL THEATER

With an Edison, a Biograph drama and late Pathe Weekly, to say noth- ing of a swell Vitagraph reel, the Royal Theater claims that they have one of the most varied and all togeth- CT interesting program that has been seen here in many days.
 The Edison reel presents Sallie Crute, one of the stars of the com pany, who is featured in "Tle Coun- terfeiters.' while the Biograph reeI offers the best dramatic effort of the company in "The Ethics of the Pro fessioa," that will more than inter- est members of the local egal call ing. It is the Vitagraph reel you will dote on, for pretty Lillian Walker, the girl with the dimples," is seen, supported by Earl Williams and Rose Tapley, in "Eye's Daughter" a story cf studio life
 Don't overlook the fact that Pathe has a very excellent reel on this pro 2ram. It is their regular Weekly, with it's worldwide views and Vera Cruz pictorial specials. This is pro- gram that will more than please the most exacting patron.

NEW CENTRAL THEATER

Before it is too late, permit us to call your attention to the first of Q series of Alice Joyce features, Nina of the Theater,' which comes Mon- day.
 And now for today's big show, and it is some program. There is another of the famous Harold McGrath series, "The Adventures of Kathlyn," and those of you who have witnessed the previous productions of this now most noted feature will be more than inter- ested in this one when you realize that among the famous thrillers is a spectacular reproduction of vol canos eruption, which is most faith fully produced. Kathly1 has had many experiences but nothing like you will see today.
 Sidney Drew is also featured in an excellent two reeI comedy, "Too Many Husbands" supported by the full Vitagraph star cast. This is one of the best comedies that Drew has ever appeared in. If you want to wit ness a real show, see this one here today.
The Sentinel=record., 1914-06-12
STAR THEATER

Here is a brief synopsis of the two reel feature, "A Tragedy of the Orient" by the Broncho Company:
 Osako Matsumoto, head of an an cient family of Tokyo, stopped to shameful means for breaking off the proposed marriage between his son, Kato, and Kissmoia, the adopted daughter of General Hirata.
 The General owed his prominence mainly to Matsumoto. When Kiss moia learned from his lips that she was of inferior birth and Hiratas daughter only by adoption, she left the palace broken-hearted and joined the Geisha girls.
 Secretly Kato was not displeased at the turn things had taken. With the aid of a marriage broker, it would no longer be difficult to at- tain the object of his desire.
 Tom Arnold was the newly ap- pointed agent of the Japanese steam ship Company. He fell in love with Kissmoia, and she with him. They were married.
 Kissmoia knew who was the real cause of her husbands death. She, too, was capable of revenge. Kato received a note from her saying that she had made mistake in marrying a foreigner, and that now he was dead, she longed to go to Kato. They met, and as he was about to take her in his arms, drawing her hand from under her gorgeous robes, she plGnged a dagger into his breast.
 Tanning Husband is tine Mia iestie feature, with one extra reel.

LYRIC THEATER

"On the Verge of War" 1O1 Bison in three parts.
 There are two compelling features in this big three-reel photoplay which combine in creating a breathless sus- pense. An officer or the United States navy is preapring maps to be used in military manoeuvres ill south ern waters, while an agent of southern republic is using all the cunning of his race to get possession of these plans.
 The services of a hypnotist, q modern Svengali who wields his power over q defenseless girl to fill his own pockets, are enlisted by the intriguing spy. The plot is intense, the action vrile and rapid, resulting in a combination of romance and sen sation seldom attained in motion pie ture dramas. Considering the white hot interest that is centered on the Mexican situation at the present time by the American people, this play should have a double meaning.
