NEW YORK, January Looking

A. Farrell, president Of the United
States Steel Corporation, cast an ex-
perienced eye over the business horizon
and declared he did not see anything
about which to become panic-stricken.
Conditions have been critical, he adj
mitted. and confidence has been shaken.
But, he pointed out in an interview
with the Associated Press, there have
been other critical periods in the his
tory Of America and the world.
Recalls Former Depressions.
''In my life have witnessed a num-
Der Of major depressions, he said. In
each one the public believed we would
never recover. But we did. And, while
I cannot venture to say when we will
emerge from this one, there Is no doubt
that We will come out of it stronger
and better than we were before.
America has suffered with the rest
Of the world. In fact, there are econo-
mists who believe that our troubles
have been largely due to the unsettle-
ment abroad
The steel business has had its share
of adversely But that doesn't mean
the steel industry cannot right itself.
No one can tell when prosperity will
return in full measure There are for
eign problems that affect this countrys
welfare vitally. We are hoping that the
various outstanding questions will be
answered for the good Of all countries 1"
Mr.. Farrell, who is an authority on
foreign trade, estimated that Americas
exports dropped approximately 20 per
cent in 1881 under the total for 1880.
Stable prices, he said, are one of the
principal requisites to recovery.
At the same time, he added, there
must be an advance in commodity
market values If the present situation Is
to be alleviated. Quoting from a speech
he made last May, Mr.. Farrell said:
Higher Prices Aid Recovery.
when prices fall buyers withdraw
from the market 1t is rising prices
that stimulate buying and consumption

are unfair and uneconomic in charac-
ter, should be discountenanced

he met him last a number of years ago.

BAN ON CONVICT GOODS
PROPOSED IN NEW BILL
BY the hNsociated Press

By the Associated Press
A bill to eliminate flaws and "jokers"
from present law and make possible
protection Of American labor and in
oustry from competition of products of
convict, forced and indentureG labor"
has been introduced by Representative
Kendall of Pennsylvania.
Ihough not an amendment to the
tariff act, the bill makes possible and
practicable the carrying out of the
policy intended in section BOT of that
act
The measure, with other things,
would prohibit Importation of all goods
made by a business enterprise using
convict, forced or indentured labor and
would carry back to the producer the
penalty of exclusion formerly limited
to specific goods sought to be imported
and prevents his taking advantage of
general methods of production which
compete unfairly with American stand
ards.
1t also defines what is meant by
forced labor so as to circumyent
the subterfugeS by means Of which the
intent Of the law may now be evadad
In addition, it includes State trusts
and other producing units among those
whose goods can be barred and COM
prehensively includes goods, wares,
articles and merchandise mined, pro-
duced manufactured, transported han
died, loaded or unloaded" by persons
using involuntary labor wholly or in
part.

The report said general industrial
conditions during the year reflected
more or less closely the conditions in
the States, though the severity Of the
depression in Alaska was by no means
so acute. AS a result the mining in
dustry as a whole slowed down. and
the search for ore deposits and devel-
opment of mines was suspended or
materially curtailed.
The department explained that this
condition was the Inevitable outcome
''of the extremely low prices that pre-
vailed for all OF the mineral commodi-
ties except gold"
For instance" the department add
ed, the average selling price Of cop
per in 1881, according to the Bureau
Of Mines. was 8.3 cents pound as
against IS cents in 1890. Essentially
the same condition prevailed for silver
and lead, the prices for which were
respectively 29 cents an ounce and 3.8
cents pound in 1881 against 3siR
cents and cents in 1880.
Production Curtailed.
I'm fact. it is estimated that had
the amounts of these three metals
been sold at the prices that were
paid for them in $780, their combined
value WOulQ nave Deen over SI,UUU,OUU
greater than the amount stated in
these estimates. Not only are the low
prices paid for these metals reflected
in the value Of the minerals produced,
but also they had great, though in
determinate, effect on restricting pro-
duction and discouraging the under
taking Of new developments. In the
face of this general reduction the large
increase in the output of gold from
Alaska Is extremely encouraging"
Including the 1891 estimate, total
of S400 100000 in gold has been taken
from Alaska soil since the day the
first bit Of precious metal was discov-
cred. No notable new finds were made
during the year, the department re-
ported. A unique feature the report
pointed out, Of the operations Of the
Nabesna Mining Corporation was that
considerable amounts of gold were sent
by airplane from the mine 10 a point
where more usual means Of transporta-
ton was available.
Platinum Discoveries.
The platinum finds in the Goodnews
Bay district, 1t was reported, continued
. be encouraging. The price paid for
this metal has dropped 50 much, ac-
co-ding 10 the report, that it is now
less than twice that for the equivalent
weight Of gold, whereas a few years
ego it vas worth five or six times as
much.
