TRADE IS SEASONAL
IN STEEL INDUSTRY
Copper Advances Further
on Comparatively Small
Amount of Business.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August with few
exceptions new business in the steel
market during the week averaged
moderate and about seasonal. Rail-
roads placed some additional con-
tracts. and structural steel operations
continued fair. Inquiry from auto
mobile manufacturers was again dis
appointing. Some Western mills re-
ported a moderate gain in inquiry
for finished steel products, while
others showed no change from the
dullness Of July. Pig iron trade was
quiet and about unchanged.
Copper has shown a further adj
vance on a comparatively small
amount of business. Buyers for both
domestic and export account having
placed considerable business toward
the end of last month. have been
holding off, and it is believed in some
quarters that the advance from
recent low levels has been over rapid
The position of producing interests,
however, has evidently been strength
ened by recent sales, and prices have
held firmly at the 13 cent level for
eiectrolytic delivered at Connecticut
valley points.
Tin price movements were irregu
lar, and at the end of the week the
tendency was downward. Business
was larger, with consumers better
buyers on the setback.
Lead was advanced. but the con-
Stunning demand was somewhat
smaller, with the belief that many
buyers are covered for the time
being.
Zinc was quiet. Producers were

and were not pressing the market.
Anthony was steady. There was
