spots on the business horizon and the
continued quest of idle money for
profitable employment. The buying,
however, was selective and much of
the list was barely changed
1t was pointed out in some quarters
that owners of funds and brokers
have been favorably impressed with
the indications of relative stability

i to 442, new top for the year.
The hourly pace of trading was some
what faster than on Friday. TranSac-
tions totaled 57962O shares.

makers will share 1t.
Steel plate orders for 1880 tons
have either been placed or are about
to be, the review continued.
Canadian railroad orders and in
quiries are another strong factor. In
the building industry structural
awards for the week totaled 1915
tons, with several smaller orders
pending.
The So per cent rate Of the op-
Grating side of the steel industry Is
almost triple the rate a year ago,
Steel points out. Losses during the
week were registered in Eastern Penn

points to "a per cent; Pittsburgh,
point to IS per cent, and Birmingham
rose points to ASA per cent.

in August was up 1877 per cent to
q daily average of 56,767 tons and a
monthly total of 1,759,782 tons. AS
September opened, SO stacks were in
blast, a gain OF over the beginning
of August and the greatest number
for 1885. Since September at
least 3 more stacks have resumed.
Great Lakes shipments Of iron ore
for the season to September totaled
1886. 500 tons. topping the CORE
spending period Of 1884 by II per
cent.

up 4 cents to $124l, while the recent
adjustment in wire nails put the
finished steel composite at 40 cents
to s53.7o.

that, but he avoids the heavy traf-
