Domestic Orders for Steel
Show a Heavy Falling Off

NEW YORK, July S.-The June state
ment Of the United States Steel Cor
poration, to be issued Monday, is gen
orally expected to show unified orders
on the books of the subsidiary COM
panies at the close of the month
amounting approximately to $4,000
tons. This would mean a decrease of
about 100000 tons in orders booked
Shipments are estimated to have been
100000 tons, making the June book
ings approximately 100000 tons. AS
export business was about 100000 tons,
1t is evident that domestic buying has
fallen off heavily
Since the LIST of July new orders have
been coming to the mills at the rate of
rs to so per cent of capacity. The sig
niflcant feature, however is that speci-
fications against contracts have been
and continue to be heavy, permitting
the mills to operate as close to full
capacity as the supply of crude steel
will permit.
Work for Subsidiaries.
1t is an extraordinary fact that the
corporation subsidiaries have rolling
schedules which will keep the mills
next six months.

If l didn't think he would get from 15,OOO to 2O,OO0 plurality l wouldn't make this prop osition. Six weeks ago l thought the county would go for Hughes.

SECRET SERVICE BUSY
Examination Is to Be Made by Alienists to Determine if
 He Is Sane.

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 20.-Morris Diamond, German, aged 62, of Bay City, Michigan, was arrested here today and held for examination by alienists. The medical experts will determine if he is sane and if he is, serious charge will be placed against him.
 Several weeks ago President Will son received several threats by let ters. These letters stated that the President would be killed within a short time. The Secret Service De- partment was given the various dOc- uments, following a repetition of the threats and with the aid of the Post Office officials the letter writ ing was traced to Diamond.
 Diamond had then le1t ms nome at Bay City and was travelling slow ly towards the East. Several let ters were stamped at the various places at which he had stopped.
 Today Diamond admitted writing the letters. He said that he had received "a mysterious voice con- tinually from the air through the weather bureau and he finally de- cided that it was his duty to kill the President"
 Diamond talked rationalIy today but his examination will deter mine what will be done with him.

DepOSed General of the General Staff Gave a Warning to Officers
 on All Fronts.
CANYONS BADLY NEEDED
Great WaStage of Past Months Heavier than Production of the
 Factories.

LONDON, Sept. 2O.-Germany is wasting more guns than the pro- duchOn can keep up with and am- munitOn supplies are rapidly dwin- ding. This important announce ment was received by the war office today and came from General Doug las Haig, officer in charge of the Somme offensive.
 General Haig says that General yOn Falkenhayn, recently depOsed chief of the German general staff, six week ago directed letter to his officers declaring that the wastage of guns during the recent three months exceeded their production and also that ammunition supplies were decreasing to such an alarming extent to cause the greatest kind of worry.
 General Haig reported that one of these letter has been found by the British in capture of an i'm pOrtant position on the sOmme riy- CT.
 General von Falkenhayn's sigma ture was boldly written at the bot tom and the document urged the Germans on every front to con serve their supplies as the situation was acute.

London Indignant

LONDON, Sept. 2O.-The morning newspapers are indignant over the German coup at Kavala whereby the Greek army Corps surrendered.
 The Telegraph says:
 This is an outrage of charac- ter quite unique even in Germany's record. and certainly is unprece- dented in history. An entire Greek army crops has been literally kid mapped by the Germans and Bulgar- ians and packed off with the arms and equipment to Germany. The plot was matched in Berlin and car ried out by the Bulgarians
 "The story of this international crime. adorned with mendaclous ex- cuses put forward to account for it. comes from the Wolff Bureaud and is a mixture of truth and false hood.
 "The Wolff bureau states that communication between the Greek army corps and Athens was inter rupted by the Entente. The truth is that it was cut by the Bulgarians. The Wolff bureau states that the Greek commander, wishing to main tain neutrality. appealed to the Ger man commander for protection from the Entente. The truth is the fourth army corps surrendered only under the menace Of the Bulgariens. and only after 1t was surrounded and at tho mercy of the enemy"

SEEMS
 CERTAIN TO BE
 CALLED IN N. Y.
All Efforts to Avert the Big WaIkout, Slated for Tomorrow, Are
 in Vain.
RIOTS THROUGHOUT CITY

NEW YORK, Sept 2O.-As the day shortens 1t appears certain that general strike will be called here tomorrow in sympathy with the striking carmen. Every effort today to avert the threatened walk out was absolutely futile. President shont positively refused to reopen consideration of the traction em. ployer's demands. To date over half of the unions in New York City and vicinity have announced their inten- ton of striking. It is varlously es- timated that between 75.OO0 and 125,- 900 men will walk out tomorrow if the word is given.
 Today. following last nights riots, many of the cars were taken back to the barns and no attempt made to operate them.
 Munition factories at work on or ders of the Entente allies are likely to be affected by New York's street car strike. The machinists union is included in the trades organiZa- tions that next Monday may declare a strike in sympathy with the car men. It is said that 75 per cent. of the machinists have voted in fay- or of a sympathetic strike.
 Union leaders attach much inn portance to the action of the ma chinists, most of whom are employ ed at plants manufacturing munitions of war for the Entente allies.
 The effect of a strike in that trade, they say, would be a direct blow at the Morgan interests, the largest holders of stock in the h. terborough Rapid Transit Company.
 J. p. Morgan 6 Company are the fiscal agents of the British govern ment in this country.
