Steel Orders Drop
Untitled Tonnage Shows De.
crease of 673,48 Tons

Orders on the books of the United
States Steel Corporation decreased 673,-
481 tons during February. The monthly
untitled tonnage statement issued yes
terday showed orders of 6,010,787 tons
on February 28, compared with 6,684,-
26s tons on January 81.
The falling off in February indicates
that the inflow of new business was
not in sufficient volume to keep pace
with deliveries. According to d Wall
Street estimate about 60 per cent Of
the business done by the corporation
last month was on old standing orders
Untitled orders on the corporations
books at the close of November, the
month the armistice was signed. acgre-
gated S,124,663 TONS. The decrease in
untitled tonnage since that date
amounts to 2,133,S76 tons.
The high peak on untitled tonnage
Of the Steel Corporation was reached
iii April, 1917, when the enormous war
demands for steel raised the total of
orders to 12,l83 OS3 tons, or more than
twice the amount now on hand

Powder Profits Slump
Balance for Hercules Stock
Only S27.l4 a Share

Earnings of the Hercules Powder
Company fell off sharply in 1913, the
annual report issued yesterday shows,
the balance available for the 81, So
600 Of common stock being equivalent
to S27.14 a share, compared with SIG in
1917.
Gross receipts amounted to S45,556,-
O52, compared with $44,105,533 the
year before. The company paid S3,
992,629 in taxes and subscribed to
$780, 900 Liberty Loan bonds.
Additions and alterations to its
plants enabled the company to so in
crease its production of war materials
that at the end of December it had
manufactured and delivered a total
of 9O,000,000 pounds of smokeless pow
der for artillery use, including cor
dite, and 100000 pounds of TINT.
In November it was operating its own
plants at capacity of 100000 pounds
of smokeless powder and 100000
pounds OF INT month.
The margin of profit on the govern
ment business of the company was so
small that the company's operation of
the nitro plant did not contribute q
dollar of profit during 1918. There
remains only a small quantity of war
material still to be delivered.

Company Being Organized to
Protect Stock Exchange
Firms

large part of the stock of pro
posed 81 100000 company when would
insure employees of Stock Exchange
firms has been subscribed for. The
proposal of the formation of such a
company is the outgrowth of an invcs-
tigaton which special committee OF
the Association Of Stock Exchange
Firms, of which Arthur Upper is the
chairman, has made.
A special meeting OF the association
will be held in the Governors room
Of the Stock Exchange at 1880 o'clock
this afternoon for the purpose Of con-
sidering the report which has Decn
made by the committee.
The idea for the formation of
company, in which the members Of the
association would hold the stock, was
brought about because or rne large
earnings which the various insurance
companies have realized from insur-
ing employees Of Wall Street houses,
according to brokers. These earnings
have been out of all proportion with
the losses, it is said
Since the committee made its report
on December 10, of last year, it is
understood that the various companies
have made notifications in their con-
tracts. The whole situation will be
discussed this afternoon.

Unmourned

No tears were shed il, Wall Street
yesterday on receipt of the news that
John SHELTON Williams had resigned
rs director Of the railroad admins
tration's division of finance and pur-
chasos.
The opinion in important financial
quarters is that the task of meeting
the financial needs Of the railroads in
the present emergency will be much
easier of solution with Mr.. Williams
on the side lines. The bankers denied
that they had anything to do with Mr..
Williams's resignation. Since he as
sumed the task of arranging the finan-
cling Of the railroads needs the Con-
troiler Of the Currency has inaugu-
rated many novel methods of proceed
ure, among them the plan for g getti4g IT.; E
all the bankers, whether ldentliled with
the properties or not, TO bid on their
securities This worked all right un-
til one or two underwriting @ houses u ;f $
found it impossible to market readily
the securities taken by them for dis
tributiOn.

firmer yesterday. Old style May con-
tracts sold up to 22.12c or 72 points
net higher, and closed at % .75c, while
the new style May advanced to 23.23c
and closed TO 23.05c, with the general
advance of 35 to 94 points on the old
and of 80 and Go points on the new
contracts.
Trading consisted largely of trans
ferring from old to new style con-
tracts. A feature was strength Of
old style March delivery, which sold
up to 24.50c, or 102 points above the
closing price of Saturday, on covering
by those who had sold in expectation
cause greater weakness. The near
months were relatively firm in the
old style contracts. and the late
months in the new This was attrlb-
uted to the fact that trade interests
who had sold May and July contracts
as hedge against forward business
in spots were again very active buyers
of these deliveries against sales in the
sponding new style contracts
Fresh buying, inspired by the
weather or trade news, went into the
new contracts, and this was supposed
to account for the relative firmness
of the late new style months. At one
time during the day the two Mays
sold on practically even terms, but
