FOREIGN ORDERS FOR
SHELL STEEL HEAVY
Domestic Purchasing Lighter
Pig Iron Markets Dull.

A considerable amount Of she'll max
ing steel has been purchased and Is
under inquiry, but the trade papers
report a continued falling off Of domes-
tic buying. Pig iron markets are dull
and here and there are reports Of lower
prices.
"Thc Iron Age" says;
"ln the general tendency Of the do
mestic market to less activity the
heavy demand for war steel and for
plates becomes highly interesting. The
Steel Corporation has taken on the
largest single contract for shell forg-
inC5 yet let by the British Government,
from 100000 to 100000 tons being in
volved. Present inquiries on behalf
OF the Allies represent nearly 100000
tons more.
along with the sensational activity
I'm shell steel there is just now
sharper competition for forging and
machining work. A good many NUM-
tons plants have lately named prices
well below those at which expiring
contracts were taken"
"The Iron Trade Review" will say:
Activity in the buying side in the steel
market continues more restricted, but
there are no signs of weakness. Max
ers are obligated so heavily TO ship by
the Unprecedented volume of orders
on their books that they are glad of
the opportunity 10 apply their energies
more completely 20 production prob
lens. Some of the largest buyers of
steel plates in the country now have
taken up with the mills the matter
Of covering upon their requirements
for all Of next year. In view Of the
present remarkably high prices for
this product, this illustrates a conf
dence Of these buyers i'm the extended
prolongation OF present conditions.
"The pig iron market remains quiet,
but here and there buyers have been
closing for some tonnage for shipment
during the first half of next year. In
some cases, concessions from this
years prices have been granted by
the producers; in others. slight sd
vauces have been obtained"

Explanations.

Several explanations, most OF them
plausible enough, were offered IN the
commission house gossip Of the day
to account for the slowing down Of the
rails. Some persons laid it to just
n natural reaction" Others said
London had resumed selling of stocks
on finding the market more favorable
to liquidating operations. still an
other theory was that the speculative
element had once again given up hopes
of an early peace and for this reason
felt more favorably disposed toward
the war stocks and special issues. As
If these explanations were not sufi-
Gent another group Of stock market
dopesters figured out that possibly the
big interests" in the street had de
cided to put the soft pedal on the
bull movement pending the outcome Of
the Republican National Convention.
and had encouraged breaking the gea-
eral advance by holding back the rails

our largest customers after the war.
How payment for the tremendous
purchases of products, anticipated
rs TO be arranged is another matter.
Ludwig W. Schmidt. editor of the New
Yorker Handelsnachrichten," predicts,
however that with the ending OF hos
tilitics the Tcutons will probably buy
goods In the American market at the
rate OF $3.50. 100000 n year Before the
war she bought annually about $500
1000 and sold us Sl90,00000 600 worth
OF goods Among her purchases were
huge quantities OF cotton amounting
in tho year before the war to $780,
100000 All that traffic has, of course,
been interrupted. and exports 10 Ger
many I'm the first year Of the war fell
to less than S30O00,000. Mr.. Schmidt
says Germany needs good many raw
materials produced here. and "she will
like better TO buy here than some
where else" SO, he adds, the mer-
chants may come with very big orders
when the time OF peace approaches.
German shipping lines here already are
preparing 90 transport tho goods
bought, he says. and there will be no
difficulty In handling the big exports.

The Marine Dispute.

After so much fuss had been made
over the reported obstacles imposed by
the British government IN the way Of an
early reorganization Of the International
Mercantile Marine Company yesterday
the strength of the preferred stock i'm
market that was generally unsettled
attracted much attention. That issue,
at its high Of the day, made in the
afternoon, showed an advance of more
than 5 points from the low, ending
with a net gain of 3is points. The
common was also strong for o time. but
eased off at the close. According 10
bankers interested in the rehabllta-
ton Of the property. the differences that
have delayed the lifting Of the receiver
ship are limited TO local factions, and
while 10 is admitted that a contract ex-
ists between the British government
and the Marine company which guar
antees certain representation 10
British subjects on the board Of direc-
tors and safeguards the British gov
eminent interest in the ships, this
does not enter into the dispute that is
holding up the reorganization. 10 Is
pointed out that no attempt whatever
has been made TO pursue policy hos
tile 10 the British interests. On the
other hand, IL is admitted that the pre-
ferred and common stockholders are
still split over the terms Of issue Of
the proposed new securities Unofi-
cial figures appeared yesterday indicat-
ing that Marine earnings in April set
g now record.

GOLD MOVEMENT
NAY SOON CEASE
$2,OOG,OOO Consignment Is Be-
lieVed To Be Last for a Time.

With the receipt yesterday OF another
consignment Of $1,000 900 in gold bars
from Canada by j. p. Morgan & Co.
foreign exchange bankers predicted
that the present import movement Of
the yellow metal from the Bank of
EngIaud's reserve at Ottawa had about
ended. Since the gold influx to this
centre began about two weeks ago a
total of SlG.826,0OO has been sent from
across the border
One of the reasons advanced in for
eign exchange circles for the belief
that no more gold viii be shipped here
for the present was the apparent re-
sumption Of selling for European ac-
count IN the stock market This was
evidenced yesterday, they said, by the
check TO the rise On the railroad issues.
The recent hrmness in the rate Of ex-
change on London has also been pointed
to as an indication that gold imports
are nearing an end.

Waiting on the Convention.

No one can deny that Wall Street
is deeply interested in the outcome Of
the Chicago convention. Some Of the
more outspoken individuals in the
Street have pointed out for some time
past that there can be no prolonged
rise in the stock market until u IS
definitely known who the Republican
candidate is to be. A member Of q
prominent stock exchange house an
nounced this week "if the convention
viii nominate a good Republican, one
who will eliminate the uncertainty Of
splitting the ticket again, assuring
Republican victory in the fall, ! be
lieve we arc at the commencement or

WHEAT.

WHEAT.
The wheat market showed n strong upward
movement during the early part OF tho day.
and prices advanced lssM2c a bushel on re-
newed aggressive operations on the buying
side. On the advance however. there was
renewed selling. prompted 10 some extent by
pence rumors. which were apparently based
on reports that Chancellor Won Buelow was
coming 20 America. and at the close OF the
day values were easier, although maintaining
net gains OF i3N2.c. Unfavorable crop re-
ports were again circulated freely and had
considerable influence on the market, al
though 10 Is maintained that there was little
improvement IN the commercial situation,
and some authorities again expressed the
opinion that il would be difficult 10 maintain
values or create renewed bullish sentiment
until there u a better demand for tho cash
article. The Winnipeg market was closed
on account Of Victoria Day. but the late
quoted at Sl.I4ss, July at Sl.l3H and Oc-

CORN.
The corn market was firm early In the
day on covering in sympathy with the adj
vance In wheat and on evidences Of some
congestion IN the May position. but toward
the close there was partial reaction under
profit taking, and final quotations showed
net gains Of only "a &c. The weekly
,'catber and crop bulletin indicated some
unfavorable conditions in portions Of the
West and said that the growth had been
slow in all sections owing 20 unseasonably
low temperatures. In the local cash mar
ket No yellow corn was quoted at 64'se'
G 1 New York.
OATS.
Oats we're fairly steady early with the
other markets. but there was an absence Of
aggressive buying. and late In the day prices
