STEEL STOCKS
SHOW ACTIVITY
BOOM rs FELT THROUGHOUT THE
COUNTRY, SHOWING REC
ORD STRENGTH.
Ia Belle Common Closed Saturday a.
5oas-steel Cooperation Direct
ors Meet This Week.

Active buying in all steel stocks
featured the last weeks sales in all
the stock markets OF the country. Is
pecially was this true in Wheeling.
La Belle common featured the selling,
gaining 1865 points for the week. IL
having opened last Monday at 40 and
closed Saturday at 56%. The total
sales for last week in this stock alone
We're 10000 shares. Speculation has
taken considerable La Belle out OF
wheeling. n there is probably less
OF this stock in Wheeling now thar
ever before.
Taking the steel industry in Sener.
al. it has been more than a decade
since such activity in this class has
been noted, as brokers are expert
menting at this time. Recent book
ings for contracts made public show
that during the last week 500. 900 tons
OF steel were contracted for. This in
cludes $4,000 ton for rails. cars. To-
ccmotives. bridge and structural work:
100000 ton for munition orders: 1O0.-
goo tons on wire contracts; $4,000
tons of fabricated steel. and $4,000
tons for marine work. II is estimated
that projectile orders from France and
Russia alone aggregate a value OF sfO.-
GOO. 900.
During the last week wire raised 81
a ton; and since last December rolled
steel products have raised 81 per ton.
Conditions throughout the country
show that fancy prices are being paid
for billets TO be rounded into shells
and ~projectiles. Bessemer sheet min
imums raised 81 20 S2.1O. and blue an
nealed sheets are strong at s1.6O for
Hessemer 10 gauge. The big event of
the coming week Is the quarterly meet
ing of the directors of the Steel Cor
poration. al which dividend action will
be taken. and the statement of the
September quarter earnings will be
made public. II IS certain that pre-
ferred dividends will be allowed. but
whether similar action will be taken
as to common Is a question.
To get back 20 the local market. all
stocks showed activity. Wheeling
Mold & Foundry enjoyed a slight but
steady rise. closing at 81. Wheeling
Steel & Iron closed at 127. and Hazel
Atlas closed at rs. La Belle pre-
ferred sold at 10. a slight increase.

GREAT FALLING OFF

ENORMOUSLY CTRTttLED.

Make Booze Have Idea That Pro-
hibition Is Really Expected 10 Pro-

The fact that great sections u the
United States now dry either under
absolute State prohibition or county
option is decreasing tho quantity OF
liquor drunk may be denied by aEen-
cies of the liquor interests bat tho
testimony Of the Wall Street Journal
an institution which certainly IS not
boosting prohibition, is to the ct
feet that the decrease in the manu-
facture Of wlliskey for January, 1919,
Is enormous. The distller.es do not
make whlshey 10 give away. they
make 1t TO sell. when the demand
for the product exists they naturally
try to have the supply manufactured
equal the probable demand. Still,
in the face Of facts which no one
can deny. the liquor agencies continue
to assert that prohibition does not
prohibit.
The Wall Street journal. however,
prints the following:
production OF whiskey IN Ken
tucky in January was 1,eS0,o00 gal
Ions. against 6.1oe,4bs gallons in Jan
uary. 1914: production OF Pennsyl-
vania was l.07s.s0s gallons in. Janu-
