STEEL BUYING STILL
IS HAND TO MOUTH
Purchasers Are Cautious-Copper
Demand Shows No Improvement.
Declines Are Reflected.
By the Associated Press


NEW YORK, April 10.-The volume
of new buying in the steel market
during the past week, while a trifie
smaller, kept up remarkably well, but
was again confined largely to prompt
delivery. Buyers were very cautious
about placing forward orders at pres
ent prluez. as pig iron was generally
lower with foreign iron selling at dis.
counts along the Atlantic Coast.
The demand for copper has shown
no improvement since the Easter
holidays abroad and further declines
In London have been reflected by the
domestic markets. Producing inter
ests generally are not pressing for
sales and appear hopeful that return
ing stability in the stock market may
be followed by a gool late Spring
business, but with buyers holding off
asking prices have been subject to
approximately the 17s cent level with
out materially stimulating interest.
Tin declined sharply in response to
the break In London, where pressure
was encountered, due to apprehension
over industrial conditions in England.
Producers and consumers bought
heavily on the decline tor deliveries
running into July. Spot metals
scarce. but futures offered freely.
Lead prices have been reduced fol-
lowing the break in foreign markets.
Offerings of outside metal continued
free, with buyers more cautious.
Zinc was easier, with prices hack
to the low level of the season, in SYM
pathy with the decline abroad and
the easier trend of other metals. De-
mand was light.
Antimony showed further losses for
spot. due to the continued apathy on
the part Of buyers.

yen strengthened materially on the
announcement of gold exports to this
country. Sterling exchange held firm

ped to around their extreme low levels
and then made partial recovery.
Dutch and Swiss currencies were
strong. but the so-called "silver ex.

Outside the financial markets, one
of the principal developments of the
