trades to-day the dron Age says:
Following the statement by the
leading producer one week ago that it
had raised the price of steel bars So
a ton, or to assoc. Pittsburgh, the
same interest has announced similar
advances in wire products and in con-
tract plates and structural shapes.
In a slow market-from the domes-
tic standpoint-these advances have
given little stimulus to buying.
manufacturing consumers of steel
are facing smaller demand for their
products, in view of high prices. I'M
plement makers count on a % per
cent. falling off in their sales and pos
sloly more. They contend that bars
should be reduced rather than ad-
vanced.
1t is understood that recent con-
tracts for bars for Europe provide that
the tull tonnage must be taken out
II not in bars, then in plates, shapes
or other products. A recommendation
proViso mas also been inserted in GER
tam contracts with buyers at home.

oars required for the large shell con-

nearly 100000, ,00O-has been bought,

CRIME WAVE HITS
BOROUGH; 1SHOT
Fight Over Woman Sends Man
to Hospital; Two Are
Robbed

A series of three crimes in which
valuab bles were taken or injury done to
the person, and several minor infrac-
uons of the peace have kept the

The most serious case occurred this
morning at 552 Iron alley, when in
an alleged fight over woman,
Charles Brown, colored, aged 5 years,
was shot in the chest near the heart
and he is now said to be in a serious
condition at the Harrisburg Hospital.
Browns assailant whose name he re-
fuses to divulge, made his escape and
up to noon had not been captured.
A holdup in which the victim was
knocked unconscious and relieved of
SS6 was reported to the police last
night. The victim was Ivan Kirin. re-
siding at $50 Frederick street and his
assailants are said to have been three
colored men, who after securing the
mans purse, made their escape.
Another robbery occurred on the
same section of Frederick street yes
terday when Woodson Rock, coolred,
while sleeping had a purse containing
SIS removed from an inside breast
pocket. Late yesterday afternoon a
colored man named Obercash, was ar
rested by Constable Glib, charged
with the theft.
George Shutter Hurt-George Shut
ter was slightly injured yesterday
when the team he was driving was
struck by an automobile truck owned
by Russ Brothers. ice cream manufac-
turers. The accident occurred on the
road between tho Elliott-Fisher Com
pany plant and the borough. Joseph
Brinton, who was also in the wagon,
escaped injury.
Steel Production Lessens.-In spite
of the hot weather during the month
Of July the production of steel at the
local plant was about 10 per cent. less
than that of June, an exceptionally
heavy month.
Now On BordCr.-KennethV Vanier, a
former resident of Cottage Hill, en-
ployed by the Packard Motor Com
pany. has been sent to Eagle Pass,
Texas, where he will have charge of
one of the trucks furnished by that
company for the government.

The structural outlook is not pron1is-

ness fabricating companies are resell
ing some of their steel. There are
reports both of work gong ahead be-
cause the realization or lower steel
prices may be a good while DELAYED
and of projects laid aside because the
expected reductions have not come.
Miss Rain Wins. - The popularity
contest which has been running in the
borough since July II to decide who is
the most popular girl, ended yester-
day. According to the official count
made, Miss Evelyn Rain won first
prize of either a gold watch or dia-
