Change in Situation-Other
Metals Reviewed.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, July 19.-There has
been little sporadic buying of steel,
but not of sufficient volume to fndi-
cate any important change in the
situation at large. Production has
continued at it's recent low percent
age and buyers have displayed no dis
position to make purchases in ex-
cess of their Immediate or nearby re-
qulrements. Prices have been some
what irregular, and the undertone of
the market was easy. There was a
little better demand for pig iron, es-
pecial1y in the west, but prices were
easy and the buying was not con-
Sidered general
After several weeks of dullness the
copper market developed consider
ably more activity, and prices as
sumed a firmer tone. Producers are
asking 121a cents for electrolytic land
refused bids under this level The
demand has been both for domestic
use and for export. but has been con-
fined largely to small lots. The buy
ing was inspired by a favorab Bile view
of the international financial situa-
tion and the statistical position, as
stocks of refined in America de-
creased 10000 pounds during June
and production in North and South
America fell off 21,000,0O0 pounds.
Tin continued its upward price
trend, with consumers as well as
dealers showing more buying inter
est. Larger straits shipments Were
in prospect, but sellers remained
firm in their views.
Lead was unchanged, but firmer
The demand for prompt shipment was
good, with more activity in the elec.
trical industry.
There was more inquiry for zinc
and as offers were small the market
was firm.
Anthony showed steadier tone
owing to firmness in China, where
values were affected by the floods
and a better demand from Europe.

Household Pet

4AVO0OAhOA1 All THOUGHT the idea wass when you went over to your summer
 cottage for a preliminary week that it was for rest" remonstrated the Greenlawn fan meeting his friend from Sunset Park looking all haggard and worn. You said you needed to catch your breath and you look as though you had been having hard run {" I.te
 If you think l look bad you should see Imogene," the Sunset Park man told him triumphantly. But she can't say a aword, because it was entirely her idea that it would be a kind thing to take along the family pet cat, which doesn't know it's a cat at all, being treated like a heather idol or a sultan or grand siwash of some feline utopia.
 A pair of misguided squirrels had picked out an inner porch beam to make home and raise family this year. We:found it out after l had got on the porch screens and pOppa sQuir- rel came racing home over the roof with a mouthful Of nuts for the ba- bies and his wife and found wires in- tervening. 'Momma ! he shrieked, 'are you all right? What's happened? cant get in!' NJ think the world has come to an endp momma chattered back. II can't get out! I'm starving 1! Little Icko is starving and little Nut shell and little Pee-Wee and their sis ters Hickory, Dickory and Dock !! Come to us
 They schattered and .shrieked till in self-defense and not wishing to murder a batch of infants wholesale, I unfasten- ed one screen, and, yelling defiance at me, pdppa squirrel flashed in, up, over

and into the hollow beam, where the whole family talked at once..
 N'You can't leave that screen that way Imogene said firmly. 'Pekoe'1l go out. If he gets out he'll be killed by the thirteen collie dogs owned round here. or. the chickens or lions and bears in the woods. Put it back onr
 Would you believe it, I had to watch for hours till we were sure poppa and momma were inside and then fasten the screen, and as it was late went to bed. Just as I was falling into a much-needed slumber Imogene clutched me awake. Out on the porch were scamperings, squealings, chatterings, He's got a squirrel 7 she moaned. Go stop himr
 Out on the porch I plunged into the marathon, grabbed the cat, who swore at me with claws and tail, apd l was up six times that night, and in the morning, after a grand time, Pekoe curled up comfortably licking his whis- kers, and went to sleep for the rest of the. day. We couldn't get the squirrels out, and nighttime resolved itself into dog-watches. When he tired of squirrel chasing Pekoe caught mice. That is an entirely proper thing for a cat to do, but he carried his mince into the living room by the tail and stood in front of me to be commended and admired, the mouse meantime having one eye on. my ankle. We would implore him to take his mice away and he would, putting them on our bed, in bureau drawer or a coat pocket or some such place. Sometimes when we found them they were completely dead and again they weren't.
 When Pekoe didn't catch mice he woke' us up scrambling up the inside of the fireplace chimney in his endeavor to get outside and see the world. Once I had to climb the roof at midnight and if hadn't had a piece of wire netting handy expect Imogene would have insisted on my sitting on top of the chimney al night so she would feel sure the cat was safe inside the house.
 "He caught bugs, too. We never realized the varieties of beetles, flying things, moths, ants and spiders that surrounded us till Pekoe begun chasing them. Most of them fly by night, and we would lie awake hearing things crash as our little pet romped in the dark,
 
 ing or on the floor was all one to him. When he grew tired of playing with them he generally brought them in and made us a present of them, arranging them neatly on the floor where we would step on them upon arising. "When there was nothing else to do he chased the baby squirrels, which were too young and foolish to be afraid of him. If those squirrels hadn't suddenly all moved out one day when I had left the screen off and Imogene was holding Pekoe by main force, l think they would have had to send the ann bulance for us. As it was we have been resting up since we got back to the rush of the great city, where there is nothing to disturb our siumbers. As for Pekoe, he came back greatly re freshed and toned up by his little va cation trip. Yes, it did him lots of good, we feel! l"
 Well, I'll be darned!' said the Greenlawn. man in immense disgust. "I hope you two never decide on an elephant for pie P.
