NEW YORK. October 1s.-In the
steel market quite an active business
developed in railroad materials dur
ing the week which resulted in good
sales OF rails. plates and shapes.
Otherwise the demand was rather
disappointing, with an evident show
of hesitation on the part of buyers.
which was attributed to a feeling of
uncertainty relative to price move
ments and some nervousness regard
ing political developments. The
undertone was barely steady, and in
some directions price concessions
were experienced. The market for
pig iron was steady, with only
moderate volume of new business.
Copper has been firm. A better
export demand resulted in slight ad
vances, but domestic consumers are
hesitating because of the political
uncertainty. Producers. however. APP
pear to be optimistic over the future.
and some speculative interest has de-
Vefoped in the first quarter of next
year. While most producers are ask
ing EXC. copper is still available AT

Tin ruled steady. with fair de
mand from consumers for nearby
deliveries. 4 liberal decrease in the
worlds visible is expected this month.
Lead has moved into consumption
at fair rate as indicated by the heavy
deliveries on contract, and the UNDER
tone was frmer.
Zinc also acted firmer owing to an
increased domestic consuming de-
mand
Anthony was higher owing to the
continued light offerings from China
