Hitting The

It's pretty safe to conJecture
 that nine out of ten Newfield
 Park customers would prefer to
 hold jobs as driving teams on Da-
 kota farms than to hold Gene
 McCann's berth as manager of
 the BridCeport~ Baseball Club.

 berry crop this season owing to
 the in-and-out performances of

 fans are asking themselves. There have been rumors at different times that harmony of the 1000 percent brand was absent owing to petty players, which is generally the rule when a ball team is hitting the skids,> but these reports have been discount eG, from time to time.
 One thing that is true. There
 is little knocking going on or
 attempts to pass the buck or duck the blame for the unsatisfactory
 showing of the team, among diff
 ferent players.
 Only recently the writer chanced to meet four members of the club sdngly versation drifted toward the Baseball channel and the present plight of the Bridgeport team. On each occasion the payer vas asked sl Prae pr, etically the
 
 with the team?' Here are the an- Swers:
 PLAYER NO. 1-The team can't hit when the bases are filled.
 There's also lot of bonehead baserunning that Gene McCann is
 not responsible for. PLAYER NO. 5The team
 day sIuggers. There's too many ! dumb bells on the team to win games. They arc told to do a thing, and they don't know how PLAYER NO. 3-It's a fourth or fifth place team. Won't be | any better until the club spends some money to buy a few good men. The team is playing at top ! speed now. No fault of Gene Mo Cann's.
 PLAYER NO. 4-Gfve us two | or three players like New Haven 1 and we'll win more games. Mo Cam tries to pull off a lot of fast | stuff, but the players fall down. 1 Instead of them getting roasted. | McCann gets it. The above dope is bonafide It's inside stuff. At the time there was no intentions of the writer to make use of the expressions of the four players in print, but the more we see l and hear Gene McCann banned by a l lot of igEora1nuses, those who blam e 1 him for the failure of inferior players 10 pull off plays on the bases, he plans, we believe it entirely proper to 1 open the door for the benefit of the baseball public. Give McCann intelligent ball players and the Bridgeport team will move up in the race. McCann is popular with his players and they stand by him Loyalty. Some l of them by their talk are known to be smartinG under the stinging criticism being heaped upon him for the fail ure of the Derbs to be higher up in the race.
 But. after all, it's all in the game.

STEEL INGOT OUTPUT
AT so P. G. CAPACITY
Current Rate of Production
Compares With 20 P. G.
Maximum in June.
PRICES STILL ADVANCING
Increased Costs Passed on to
Buyers and Are Likely
to Go Higher.

Special Dispatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
PITTSBURGH, Sept. "A change has
been wrought in the complexion OF the
pig iron and steel markets by the with
drawal of efforts to hold prices down,
and the advancing influences are being
allowed to take their natural course.
Manufacturers find 1t impossible to abb
sorb the effects of the labor situation.
and are passing increased production
costs on to the buyers. Purchasers OF
steel products are showing a conserva-
tive spirit. but are forced to make con-
tracts, in many cases, for nearby deliv-
cries, and are simply paying prices
asked. 1t Is recognized that prices will
break eventually, but as they are likely
to advance further before they decline,
consideration of that matter is left for
a later date.
The usual market on bars, shapes and
plates is $2.25, or about 20 per cent.
over the minimum of early in March.
Plates for prompt shipment are bring
ing $2.b0. The United States Steel Cor
poration Is said to be selling at under
$225, but can offer only late and uncer-
tain deliveries, being already well sold
up. In pipe the Steel Corporation has
followed the advance Of independents
printing its usual cards. while in wire
products there seems to have been a
similar following of independent ad-
vances without announcement.
A number of the steel companies with
their own coal mines that have signed
the wage scale of the United Mine
Workers expect to begin increasing their
steel production within the next ten days
or so, but at some points production is
likely to continue decreasing. 1t Is un-
safe to make any prediction as to when
steel production as whole will begin
increasing to an extent worth consider
ing. Production of coal and coke in the
Connellsville region has been increasing
in the past week or ten days, but not sc
rapidly as was expected when the heavy
wage advance was announced.

Tin Plate Demand sIackens.

A slight decrease in tin plate business
has been noticed this week. Several in
quiries are out. the general run of these
involving only 10, 900 base boxes. Some
Independent producers can see produc-
tion through September and are not par
ticularly anxious to consider business
beyond the present until they can get a
line on what production costs will be.
The price Of $4.75 on production plate
generally is firm, but some doubt exists
as to whether this price will be con-
tinued despite the fact that there Is
some slackening noticed in the demand
Whether or not the resumption of a
few independent steel companies coal
mines will result in easier sheet bar pro-
duction is matter OF conjecture. but
already independent tin plate makers
are endeavoring to get prices on higher
ground In view of the fact that their
next supply of sheet bars will be con-
siderably higher than their most recent
purchases. Stock tin plate Is available
at $3.50, although some makers will not
change their position from the s4.75
price. Operation is slightly lower than
last week. being in the neighborhood OF
about so per cent.
The leading pipe interest-National
Tube Coompany-has brought it's prices
on all grades of pipe up to those of the
independents. equivalent to an advance
of Sc a ton on standard black pipe and
81 a ton on galvanized pipe. oil coun-
try goods and line pipe also were in
creased In proportion. The decrease in
crude oil prices. owing to large produc-
tlon. has led oil producers to turn their
product into storage. and while demand
for oil country goods has shrunken some
what the slack In this direction has been
49, 4. ff,s. 1lt.r MI.
The demand for buttweld pipe continues
TO be insistent. Large pipe, 10 inch and
over, also has been advanced Sc ton.
Approximately 10000 tons of line pipe
was placed In this district this week by
large oil concern.

Car Shortage In Expected.
Steel ingot production Is now at a rate

rate this year, attained last June. 1t is
doubtful whether such a rate will be
reached again this year, as car shortage
10 regarded as certain to develop before
full movement Of coal is attained
Sheet consumers were hesitating a
few weeks ago to place tonnage, but
their disposition has changed in the
past few days with the placing of ton
mage at several mills in excess of capa-
city. Independent prices on black
sheets range from 3.40c. to assoc. and
on galvanized from 4.40c to 4.50c. with
good sized orders being entered at the
minimum prices. The maximum figures,
however. have applied on fairly good
run of orders. although the tonnage
involved III not particularly large. The
leading interest continues to quote 3.35c
on black sheets and 4.35c on galvanized,
with full finished automobile sheets held
at 4.70c, althouglson the latter independ-
ent makers are asking SO ton higher.
Blue annealed sheets are finn at 2.50c
TO 2.65c, the former indicating the Steel
Corporations level and the latter that
of the independents.
The sheet market is strong and will
continue so In view of the price that
makers will be compelled to pay for
fourth quarter sheets bars. said to be
IN the neighborhood of $40. This de-
LSsnds on the resumption OF operations
t.t certain coal mines to relieve tho
shortage of semi-finished steel. The
sheet mills in this district and the
valleys are busy. and shipments are
very fair, but mills say suitable rail-
road equipment is becoming scarcer. so
that consumers are urging shipment in
most any sort of car that will bring
them sheets. And that Is the way some
of them are getting material most ur-
gently needed.
The New York herald., 1922-09-03
Pig Iron Is Scarce.

The complexion of the pig iron market
has changed considerably. Pig iron has
become so very scarce that relatively
fancy prices are generally expected TO
rule. for the prospects are that produce
tion will be resumed very slowly. On
sales OF small lots bessemer pig iron has
advanced In the past week from $40 10
S32, valley. Basic iron presents no de-
fined market. The last indicated sales
prices were on the basis of S2s but IL is
certain that none could be had now at
less than $50. Foundry appears TO be
quotable at s33, and mallcablc iron at
S33 also.
Prices of cold punched or hexagon
nuts have been advanced from $3.50 TO
81 off list. and small rivets have been
advanced TO 40 off list for less than car
load lots. and 20 and 3 off list for car
load quantities. While business appears
on firmer basis at present. no greater
demand for nuts, bolts and rivets exists
than has prevailed during the past two
months. Unsettled prices on semi-fn-
ished materials have given rise to the
assertion that prices In the nut. bolt
and rivet market may change overnight
at any time,
