New Tin Plate Orders.

A lot of new tin plate business is be-
ing booked. particularly for the food
pack, in addition to the tonnages al
ready contracted for. and which adds
to the congestion on the order BOOKS
Operations are somewhat hampered by
fuel shortages, although many plants
stili are on a 100 per cent. operating
schedule, Notwithstanding labor disturb
ances. Tin plate manufacturers gener-
ally are not much concerned over the
priority regulations which should send
coal their way, due to the TACT that
their output largely is for food pres
ervation. The market price is un-
changed at $4.15 per base box OF 100
pounds. Stock plate. however. Is SELL
ing under that figure. although some
makers claim to be getting the full mar
ket level.

LACK OF COAL CUTS
! STEEL PRODUCTION
Output Probably Is 15 to 20
Per Cent. Lower Than I'm
May and June.

Special Dispatch TO THE New YORK HERALD.
PITTSBURGH. Aug. 12.-Production of
pig iron and steel continues to decrease
as steel mills and by-product coke
ovens exhaust their stocks. They are
receiving coal at considerably lower
rates than in June because of trans
portation disability affecting non-union
coal fields. The rate of steel ingot pro-
duction is probably under 10000. 900
tons year, representing a decrease OF
Is to 20 per cent from the rate in
May and June.
1t is estimated in iron and steel cir
cles that there will be no increase in
coal and coke supplies for the industry
until at least three weeks after the
coal strike is settled because pref
erence must be given to certain con-
suners in the early distribution. 1t is
doubted. moreover whether at best
there can be more than a makeshift
settlement in the near future such a
settlement as would leave much TO be
done by way of restoring coal produc-
tion. The prospect, therefore, is that
pig iron and steel production will con-
tinue to decrease until some time in
September.
While the demand for steel products
liz not heavy in point OF tonnage. the de-
mand that exists is rather insistent. and
price does not stand in the way of or
ders being placed. Prices now quoted
are in a sense premium prices, the de-
livery being factor. but the majority OF
mills are indisposed 10 name lower
prices for late deliveries. Some con-
sumers of steel are running out of coal
and are forced to curtail their conSump-
ton of steel The behavior of the mar
ket at present suggests that the curtail-
ment In consumption is less important
than the curtailment in production. At
the same time no one is disposed to pre-
dict that the strength of the steel mar
ket will continue indefinitely

The squirt noted in the plate market
recently taken by tank makers con-
tinues. Oil companies, however, appear
able to wait for their manufacture and
are avoiding the consideration of stock
tanks that are being carried here and
there throughout the country. Deliv-
cries OF plates from the mills are getting
tighter and prices on fabricated plates
are growing stronger as it becomes more
and more difficult to obtain steel at
1.70c.: the full spread is 1.70c. to &C.,
base Pittsburgh. and any new business
for prompt delivery that is being taken
carries the maximum figure. Some quo
tations on fabricated work have been
withdrawn and higher bids submitted.
While sheet orders are not so heavy
as a month or two ago. they are still
sufficiently large to make 1t difficult
for mills to satisfy all customers. Un-
doubtedly large tonnages will be- carried
over into the fourth quarter. AS yet the
American Sheet and Tin Plate Company
has not announced its fourth quarter
price schedule. Operations are being
interfered with more and more by the
coal and railroad strikes. All kinds OF
sheets continue 10 DC Sought, ditHoubh
much of the specifying favors the full
finished and galvanized grades. How
ever, blue annealed still Is fairly popu-
lar and a steady movement of black
sheets Is noted.
Pressure is being made upon sheet
producers for deliveries. particularly by
the automotive industry. : Prices of the
leading interest remain unchanged at
2.40c. for blue annealed, 3.15c. for black,
4.15c for galvanized and 4.5oc. for auto
mobile sheets, base Pittsburgh. These
prices are largely nominal. however as
Il is difficult to book anything for near

present supply. AS an example the
engineer showed that the Panama
canal would be useless without the
artificial lake which keeps the canal
full of water. And Lake Michigan,
he said. is shrinking. Since the gov
eminent began to keep records, the
surface of the lake has been lowered
several inches. Half a century ago
the lake was said to be slightly less
that $40 feet above the surface of the
Atlantic ocean and is now said to be
little more than SIS feet above the
Atlantic. According to Mr.. Denison,
the greater part of this shrinkage has
taken place during the last Is years.

2-WAY SHIP CANAL

fRy Associated Press,

CHICAGO. H.. Aug IA two-way
ship canal between Lakes Superior
and Michigan, deep enough for ocean
steamers, could be built at reason
able cost and would divert to this
route and to Chicago at least seventy
five per cent of the tonnage which now
goes through Sault Ste Marie, accord

After surveying the territory through
which it was proposed TO build such
a canal, Mr.. Denison said that the
best place for the cutoff route would
be from point near Au Train, Mich,
