Liverpool was better than due and
the opening here was steady at an

siderable scattering liquidation of De-
cember. Notwithstanding the better
opening tone in the stock market,
there seemed to be little less con-
fidence in the prospects for railroad
strike settlement, which probably in
creased the disposition to liquidate

Steady selling was felt by cotton in
the early trading today and prices
lost 19 to 81 points by the end of the
first half-hour of business, Decem-

apparently came mainly from pro-

DECLARES DIVIDENDS.
Steel Earnings Are Smallest Re-
ported Since March, 1915.

NEW YORK. October 25.-Total
earnings of the United States Steel
Corporation for the third quarter of
the current year, announced after
today's meeting of the directors,
dwindled to s1s,s1S,06s This is the
smallest total of any quarter since
March, 1915. when the earnings fell
to $12,457.S09, and no dividends were
paid on the common stock.
Regular dividends of 1A per cent
on the preferred and IN per cent on
the common were declared, but no
part of the common dividend was
earned and only $1.5S of the $1.75
due on the preferred was available
after payment of interest on out
standing bonds. &
To meet these dividend payments
the directors drew on the corpora
tion's undivided surplus to the extent
of $6,965,504, against the $4,571, ,668
taken from the surplus in the previ-
GUS quarter to make up the deficit in
the common dividend.
Chairman Ebert H. Gary declined
to forecast conditions in the steel
industry, but today's statement in
dicated a turn for the better, August
earnings far exceeding those of July,
with further, though moderate,
gain for September.
