New Uncertainties in Steel Situation


Events Of the week have brought
now uncertainties into the situation
after a month in which the output of
pig iron and steel were at the highest
rate since December, 1920. Hopes of
settlement of the coal strike have not
been raised by first contacts at Wash
ington and the strike of rail shop en-
ployes temporarily strengthens the will
of the miners to remain out.
".JNnc pig iron figures bear out all
that was said in that month Of gains be-
ing made at blast furnaces. For the
thirty days output was 2,3G1 .O2S tons,
or IS. 7O1 per day, against 2,30G.G70 in
the thirty -onc days Of May. or "a, 400
per day. Capacity Of the 1872 furnaces
active Oh July was 81, $40 tons per
day. against 1880 per day for 175
furnaces on June /.
Thus far there hns been no lessen
ing Of pressure upon steel mills for
early deliveries. Chicago mills in par
ticular have felt this urging. For
large company there last week was one
of the heaviest Of the year in new busi-
ness booked

ancient COINS
BROUGHT TO u. S.
Money Is Thought to Be
Among the First Coins
Minted

New York, November 3.-Thtrty
small gid coins of pure gold be-
lieved to be among the first minted
and possessing value estimated at
more than 100000 were brought
here today by George Horton, Amerl-
can consul general at Smyrna.
The coins were entrusted to Mr..
Horton after being unearthed in
April by American psychologists in
the buried ruins of saris, ancient
Lydian capital in Asia Miner
The coins are of the mihtage of
Crossus, the last king of Lydia, aud
the first great international banker,
whose name has been symbol of
wealth for nearly $500 years. They
were coined between 56l b. c., when
Croesus assembled the Lydian throne,
Cyrus, the Persian monarch. They
were unearthed In tomb and
thought by searchers to have been
hidden when Saris was besieged.
They are regarded as one of the
greatest discoveries in years because
previously but five of the same coin
age were known. These are in the
British museum. On one side of the
coins is bulIs head and on the
other q lions head. They are round
and four are somewhat wtrn.
1t is estimated that no fewer than
100000 tires will be produced in
the United States this year

olds in training are scheduled to face
the barrier tomorrow afternoon at
Old Hill Top in the two sections OF
the Pimlico futurity. Sixteen are
listed to start in each division OF the

ever, that the fields may be reduced
through scratches. but sufficient ba-
bies will parade in each to insure a
horse race from start to finish.
The double futurity" was made
possible when the Maryland Jockey
club learned that SO many owners
had a desire to try for the original
prize of $4,000. a conference of the
directors resulted in a split race.
The first four to finish in each di-
vision are booked to meet Tuesday

Alliance-Hueytown
Grid Battle Results
in a Scoreless Tie

One of the hardest fought prep
grid battles of the 1922 season was
staged on Hueytown's field yester-
day afternoon, when Alliance and
Hueytown batled to scoreless
tie in their annual football struggle.
The game was thriller from start
to finish. After Alliance kicked off
to Hueytown. the Gophers were held
for downs and Alliances machine
marched down the field to within six
inches of Hueytown's goal line. Here
the Gophers stopped further progress
with some courageous fighting and
Alliance was held for downs and the
Gophers punting out of danger. A
penalty stopped another Alliance
advance.
Straight football was used by Alli-
ance to buck over again after gain
and the Gophers were forced to bat
tie hard to hold their own. l.. Vines
threatened Hueytown's goal in the
third quarter. when he completed
forward pass, but was Jared loose
from the ball by hard tackle, pen
atty following. Alliances line held
like the proverbial stone wall when
in its own territory and Hueytown
could gain little In that direction.
No substitutions were made by
either teams. There were no out
standing stars. each member of each
team fighting with unexcelled de-
termination and playing splendid
football. A large and enthusiastic
crowd witnessed the game and each
team had Its share of faithful and
loyal "rooters.' Alliances line up:
Perry, center; L. Roberts, right
guard; Herd, left guard: Minor, left
tackle; Knight. right tackle: Daniels

Washington, November 9.--Econom-

@The prevailing prices of the chief
agricultural products, wheat corn

Brazil is in a state of collapse, ac-
.cording to Commercial Attache

fall of exchange during the past

pressed general imports, and the gov.

over all exchange transactions, has

correct the difficult suitaticn, he as
serted.
Decline in Sales
