BUYING STILL SLOW
IN STEEL MARKET
Second Quarter Gets Rather
Poor Start-RevieW of
Other Metals.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 4.-The heavy
production and. large deliveries of steel
during March left the steel market at
the beginning of the second quarter in
rather unfavorable position. New buy
ing has been slow during the week, ex-
cept in few cases. and there is a no
ticeable disposition on the part of pro-
ducers to reduce their output to con-
form with the slackening demand. While
prices are showing a reactionary tend
ency. Pig iron was quiet, with demand
mostly for small lots. and prices were
easy owing to foreign competition
Copper Still Unsettled.
Copper unsettled. After selling off to
13i1 cents, prices stiffened up on rather
a sharp upturn in London. and some
business was reported at advances of IL
TO Il cent from the lowest. Demand
failed to broaden materially, however.
while London eased off again, and the
Improvement was barely maintained,
with sellers reported at the 13 IS cent
level at the end of the week. Exports
have shown a little more interest
around 1919 cents. but buyers generally
are holding. off. and are believed to have
their more immediate needs well COW
cred.
Tin continued its downward trend in
face of favorable monthly statistics, ow-
ing to easiness abroad and in copper.
Consumers bought moderately around
inside prices.
Review of Other Metals.
Lead sympathized with other markets
and eased little. but the situation is
generally regarded as healthy, and pres
ent prices preclude the likelihood of
importations of Mexican ore.
Zinc weakened early. but when pro-
ducers reduced offerings a better tone
developed. Demand was moderate.
Antimony held steady in face of a
light trade, mainly on bullish cables
from China.

QUICK TURN COMES
IN GRAIN MARKET
Wheat Prices Suddenly Swing
Upward - Corn Again
Above ST Per BuSheI.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, April fright about
face action in the wheat market and
in other grain took place today.
Wheat scored an advance of as much
as 5h a bushel, May rising to $1.43A
compared with $1.3SA at yesterdays
finish.
Part of the strength was associat ted
with indications that the United
States visible supply Monday would
show a material shrinkage and that
there would also prove to be nota-
BILE reduction in the amount of wheat
on ocean passage to Europe.
Selling Thought Too Heavy.
Upward swings in price were due
largely to belief that heavy selling
had been without regard to intrinsic
values and had been greatly over
done. 1t was pointed out that wheat
prices were down 33 per cent in 80
days, and oats 80 per cent. In some
quarters the opinion was expressed
that every kind of grain was on the
bargain counter and htat if any
grain could not be bought it would
not do to sell it,
Active buying of wheat develop ID
in the final hour and top figures of
the day were reached just before the
close On the upward rush of prices
the miximum gains were 5l2 cents for
wheat and AZ for corn. Corn in
particular attracted attention with a
jump back again to above 81 a bushel,
September reaching $l0l.

Stormtight is just as efficient for leakproofng
an entire roof surface as it is for stopping one
leak. If your roof is old and has seen its best
days, don't 60 to the trouble and expense OF re-
placing that roof. Just cover it with coat OF
Stormtight and you will have tight, new sur
face at very low cost. Stormtight searches out
the holes and cracks as though you poured molten
lead over the old roof. When the thick, adhesive
liquid sets, it forms one-piece continuous
coating. This coating is tough and rubberlike.
1t win not crack; it will not rot. 1t expands
and contracts with the surface underneath. 1t
enables you to forget your roofing troubles and
to postpone the need for reroofng for many,
many years.
A single application lasts a long time-how
long, we do not know. We have some roofs
here in Bellevie that were coated with Storm
tight in 1915 and so far not drop of rain has
leaked through. OF course, like many other
jobs, the more carefully you put Stormtight
on, the longer it will last. But even with

tight sticks fast even to a
wet roof. 1t spreads easily
on a cold one. On days
when the mercury flirts
with zero you can break
the ice from your roof and
proceed to make it Leak
proof.
The cost of Stormtight
is really very little. The
averope roof contains from

five to ten squares "a square is 100
square feet. Two to three dollars
worth of Stormtight covers
square, so your roof can probably
be made leakproof at a cost of from
ten to twenty-five dollars. A small
leak can sometimes be fired for ns
little as twenty-five cents, by the use
of a pound of Stormtight Plastic.
Stormtight is sold in one and five
gallon cans and in 64-gallon
drums. You can get it at many
good stores that sell paint, hard
ware, or builders supplies, and
some of the readers of this adver-
tisement UiH get it. They will act
on what they have read. They will
take advantage of the opportunity
which Science has given them. They
will make their roofs leakproof this
week. Will you be one of them?

EYELESS FISH ARE FOUND UNDER
 SAN ANTONIO

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, May 1.-The theory that lake exists under San Antonio, far beneath the level of the sea, is being investigated by scien- lists following the discovery of eye less fish in water pumped from 1 1,500 foot artesian we'll at a local packing plant.
 San Antonio is only 65ow feet above the level of the sea and the subter- ranean lake is believed to be $50 feet below the surface of the ocean. The fish removed from the we'll are white and resemble catfish. Their fins are powerful and we'll developed. Small bumps or pimples appear over the spots where their eyes should be, in- dicating that the specimens found are descended from normal fish-the eyes disappearing because darkness in the underground lake made sight useless.
 The specimens found thus far are about six inches in length. Larger ones are unable to pass through the pipe if they exist.
 It is estimated that the pressure beneath the surface under which the fish live is 779 pounds to the square inch. The fish expand and in many cases burst when they come to the surface.
 The underground lake is though to be narrow, as other artesian wells of the same depth in other parts of San Antonio have brought up no fish.
