Steel and Pig
 Iron Markets
The Iron Age says:

The Iron Age says:
 The first week in the new year has brought blast furnace and steel works operation to the verge of complete demoralization. Western blizzards have made vastly worse what has been for weeks a serious situation and en- bargoes on shipments have made con- ditions at rolling mills almost hope less.
 Scores of blast furnaces have been banked in the Pittsburgh. 1Oungs- town, Wheeling, Cleveland and Chi cago districts. Steel works in the same territories have been able to operate at but 50 to 75 per cent of capacity. The East, while spared fresh snow blockades, has had record low temperatures and so little fuel has been delivered to steel plants that working schedules have gone to pieces. Never has the industry been so generally crippled or with so poor prospect of any early return to normal conditions.
 December pig iron statistics show the sharp cutting down of production in the second half of the month, and the January showing will doubtless be worse. The total of coke and anthra- cite iron last month was 2,882,919 tons, or 92,997 tons a day, against B. 205,794 tons in November, or 106, 859 tons a day. Capacity active Jan. was only 93,500 tons a day. against 106,953 tons on Dec. 1. and only 324 furnaces were in blast Jan. 1, loss of 24 in the month.
 So far as the market is concerned, the relation of supply and demand growing out of the serious operating conditions is second ndary to question of governm ent price fixing. Reasoning that price changes will almost cer- tainly be downward, buyers find no reason for contracting except that of getting a none too certain place on rolling mill schedules, and sellers are not making haste to write contracts that are likely to be revised from without.
 Among questions raised by buyers is this: If there are new prices April l 1 will they apply to deliveries carried 1 beyond that date. even though con- l tracted to be made in the first quarter? ? An authoritative answer is that they 1 will.
 While Washington assurance is given that no price changes are con- templated that will reduce steel pro- duction by going below costs of small producers, there is an evident purpose to reduce prices obtained by integrat- ed companies. By the Pomerene bill 1 or in some other way a government control is aimed at that will take over all output, but at different prices tc

BONDS OF RUSSIA
 BREAK ()IQ STREET
Drop Nine Points on RuIll0rS of
 Debt Population

Wall Street-Industrials including the more popular war issues, yielded l to 1 1-2 points in the early trading g today. Shippings, coppers and oils reacted to a like extent Steels were subjected to marked pressure and the loss of 1 1-2 points in American Can was attributed to the company's new financing. Rails were irregular. Lib erty bonds showed slight improvement.
 Stocks continued dropping during the afternoon, rails joining.
 Tho few gains included motor ac- cessories, Peoples Gas, Wells Fargo Express and United Cigar Stores. Bonds were extremely variable, French government 1-2's rising a substantial fraction, while OH the curb Russian government 1-2 and 1-2's broke [ and respectively on reports from Pctrograd that these issues may be cancelled.
 Trading was even more quiet during the mid season. The list was inclined to improve under lead of industrials and shippings. A few specialties made noteworthy gains, including the tobacco group. Liggett and Meyers ad vancing 25 points on one sale.
 Closing-Coppers and shippings sustained the list for a time but the market yielded again later on re- newed pressure against steels and

different producers. The market price would then be an average and not at a level fixed by the costs of high cost plants. In the face of such a pro pOSal the steel trade has modified it's first feeling of satisfaction with the recent official action on present prices.
 Lake Superior ore producers, who make sales for an entire year, are or ganizing a protest against a possible revision of their 1918 contracts. Thus far considerable reservations of ore have been made at Cleveland, but ac- tual sales are deferred until prices can be definitely fixed.
 Hundreds of thousands of tons of export steel is piled up at Eastern ports awaiting shipment, and large sales for export could be put through if bottoms could be. had. In wire a 50,000-ton inquiry has been up, but could not be entertained. The gov ernn1ent is seeking 5o,oOo tons of open-hearth rerolling billets for shipment abroad.
 The Canadian Pacific Railroad has inquired for 85,oOO tons of 85-lb. rails Quotations on this business have gone as high as $70 for Bessemer, and $73 for open hearth rails. A Canadian mill is the natural destination of this order, but there is a possibility of it's division.
 With rail, car and locomotive buy ing for the railroads now a matter of government initiative, some orders for all three may be expected. Price fixing of rails is thus an early prob ability. It appears that rail mill space is not thoroughly pre-ennpted for the next eight Or nine months, though the larger systems covered for 1918 long ago.
 The interesting thing in cars is that, forced to accept uniform designs for the sake of output, the railroads will realize no small saving in reduced inventories through interchangeah bill ity.
 Any expectation of increased quan- titles of tank plate becoming available through rejections of plates failing to meet ship specifications will not likey be realized, as normally they are not exceptionally large, and slight modifi- cations have meanwhile been made in requirements. The reduction of earlier estimates of cargo ships that can be built represents 500, ,000 to 750,- coo tons of plates counted on as re- quired for shipyards that could not go into cars and locom otives.

one doubts the cruelty of the Germans
to French civilians let him visit
Domain. During three years the Ger
mans allowed the people of Denain
three dead army mules for fresh
meat. All horses. cows, cattle and
poultry were requisitioned, as were
the crops. The penalty imposed on
citizens for harvesting their own
grain was 80 marks ($20), including
seizure of the grain. The owners
could not pick fruit from their own
trees and could not gather their own
vegetables except under severe re-
strictions.
