Especial to the Herald.)
 Plainville, Sept, 30.--According to General Manager Hawley the threat ened strike of spinners in the Plain vile branch of the Bristol Manufac- turing company failed to materialize today, the differences between the employees and the company having been adjusted at noon The twenty spinners employed in the mill had presented demands for an increase in the piece work price paid on certain goods and had threatened to walk out last night unless the company acced- ed to their wishes.
 They were pursuaded to remain at work until noon today pending the return from New York of General Manager Hawley. The latter held a conference with the men this noon and they returned to work when the o'clock whistles were sounded. MT. Hawley told the Herald that an ad- justment had been mad and there would be no strike. The mill is busy at the present time and strike of the spinners would practically cripple the plant.

New York, Sept. 30, Wall St., 10:30 "a. m.--Some abatement of the recent activity in war shares was observed at the irregular opening of today's mar ket, although several of that group, notably Continental Can, which rose 6 points to IA. and Lackawanna Steel, up to 2.1-4. to e2. were among the prominent features. Among the new issues attracting attention were Philadelphia company which rose 4 IA to s3, and United Railways, up 3-S to 25 1-4. Rock Island was con- spicuous among the railways, opening with 4,000 shares at 23 1-2 to 25 against yesterdays final quotation of 22 3-4 on announcement that recov- cry suits against the old directors were under way.

STEEL CONSUMPTION
 GREAT IN AMERICA
Home Use Increases Railroads
 Use Much

The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 Signs of increasing home consump- tion are plainer as the steel trade enters the last quarter of the year. The upward trend of prices is, if any thing, more marked, and inquiry for rolled steel for the first quarter of next year is broadening.
 The problem of the bar mills in making deliveries on home contracts and at the same time meeting the demands for war steel is growing more difficult. A Cleveland company closed this week with the Lackawana Steel company for 35,000 tons of bars, deliveries extending over twenty months. New orders for shell steel are coming out constantly. Addition al requirements for France that will come to the mills when the present French contracts are finished in Feb ruary amount to 300,00o tons.
 Railroads Busy.
 Railroad buying is becoming a real factor just as reports of car shortages are coming up in the Middle West. Orders have been placed this week for A,OO0 cars, chiefly for the New York Central. From 15,000 to 10000 cars arc under inquiry including 10000 for en important trunk line.
 The New York Central has ordered 120,0OO tons of rails for 1916, of which 55,0 tons went to the Illinois Steel company, 55,000 tons to the Lackawanna Steel company and 10.- coo tons to the Cambria Steel com pany. The Burlington placed 15,000 tons and the Sea board Air Line 5000 tons. The September rail bookings of the Steel Corporation have been about 10000 tons.
 Canada's Algoma mill, which has rot been heard from in the domestic rail market in months, has taken the Pore Marquette rail order for 17,000 tons. There were some special fea- lures in this specification. Canadian steel makers with large tonnage of profitable war steel crowding upon them, have sought to sublet some of their earlier export contracts in this country.
 Billets at Premium.
 Steel billets for rolling and forging are commanding premiums of $2 to $3 a ton for early delivery. In the Central West forging billets have sold up to $39 Pittsburg mill With the scarcity of steel so pronounced, new open-hearth capacity is being rushed to completion.
 Quite generally the large steel com- panies have advanced to 1.40c., Pitts burg, for bars, plates and shapes for this years delivery, and manufactur- ing consumers are closing for the early months of 1916 on that basis. One Eastern plate mill has put its price at, 1.45c., Pittsburg.
 Pig-iron buying is not heavy, but sellers are firm in holding for higher prices for 1916 deliveries. This week buying in mallable and other railroad supply lines has been more marked
