Congressman Herman P. Kop- plemann of Hartford, democratic candidate for reelection in the first Connecticut district, contin- ues to be the lowest spender of any of the nominees in this state for congress. Kopplemann has re- ceived $475 in contributions to date but has spent only $107 to further his campaign. No other major party candidate in Con- necticut has listed such small dis burSements. Richard F, Warren, union party candidate for con- gress in the fourth district, how ever, has underspent Kopplemann with campaign costing but $l03.
 Congressman James A. Shanley, running for reelection on the democratic ticket in the third dis- trict, is the only candidate of both major parties who has yet failed to file financial report with the clerk of the house of representa-

 Democrats of the state are con- ceding IT of the 267 seats in the house of representatives to the re- publicanS. This is because they have endorsed IT candidates for the house. Among the republicans receiving democratic endorsement was Town Chairman Martin J. Whelan of Wolcott. Two years ago the Wolcott democrats did not nominate anybody for the house, either. Neither did Woodbury. Charles G. Morris of Newtown, three tires democratic candidate for governor, is running for the house of representatives in his community.

Wise in Casting.
Mr.. Tuttle was, too, wise in his
casting. His Cleopatra, Yvonne Kush-
ner, was a plant adventures who
wore that lotus flower on her hair as
though she really meant business. His
Caesar, George Harrington, had a

magnificent speech over the dome OF
his elegantly bald head. His Britain

hit of the show and as played with
great success by Mannix Walker, was
more than reminiscent of Charles
Laughton in "RuggleS Of Red Gap

were beautifully played by Wade Rob-

"HOLlDAY" IS PRESENTED
BY ST. PAUL'S PLAYERS
Performance of Barry Drama
Stamps Company as Among
Best of Amateurs.

"HOLIDAY," Philip Barry's por-
trayal of love frustrated by di-
verse viewpoints, only to achieve later
q union of kindred spirits, was pre-
sented last evening by the st. Pauls
Players as their first production of the
season. Though possibly somewhat
less polished an effort than would
have been turned out by the So
called "semi-pro" local organizations,
the version offered proved quite ac-
ceptable and stamped the current
company as among the best of
'-simon-pure" amateur groups. Cap
able direction by Arthur S. Harvey,
jr., and the noteworthy sets of John
Meininger were combined with uni
formly intelligent reading.
Clarence Donohoe appeared to ad-
vantage in the role of Johnny Case,
who doesn't want to settle down and
amaSs a fortune-at least, not right
now. Charlotte Knott would have
been more convincing had she injected

the second place Director Tuttle has
taken certain local actors and plunked
them into Caesar and Cleopatra" with
amazingly pleasing results. And in the
third place-and most important Of
all-Mr. Tuttle has created what may
be considered smash hit along Wash
1ngton's Broadway.
Sets Attractively Modern.
This, Mr. Tuttle Che being the genius
Of the moment) has done, by hiring a
certain William Girvan to do sets
which are attractively modern without
being a blot on the eye. He has also
done it by admitting that the play is
the thing and not by inundating his
audience with entre-acts of coffee and
suggesting that the patrons are the
Caesars and the Cleopatras of what
ever they may see before them. He has
also done it by stern discipline, by good
lighting, and by short intermiSSiOnS.
And he has cinched the whole business
by creating an atmosphere of fun as
well as endeavor and by keeping his
followers in the best of humor from the
beginning to the end.
Thus it should be recorded that the
initial performance Of the newly
formed Washington Civic Theater was
a bowling success. 1t wasn't just a
formal success. 1t was specifically
bowling. And when Caesar jumped

STEEL |NGOT RATE
LIFTED SLIGHTLY
October Gain in Pig Iron
Output and Stronger
Scrap Price Cited.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the ASSOcldteQ freSS.
NEW YORK, November 4.-Iron Age
said today in its review of the steel
industry.
"A slight lifting of the rate Of steel
ingot production to 74i2 per cent; an
October increase of per cent in pig
iron output; a stronger scrap market,
with an advance of Is cents in heavy
melting steel at Chicago; stepping up
of automobile assemblies to more than
1000 a week, with further gains in
immediate prospect; an advance of 81
a ton in pig iron prices by an eastern
producer, which may be followed short
ly by competitors, and more active
buying of some steel products are pos
sible indicators that prediction I'M
certainty may soon be displaced by
renewed forward movement.
Major Areas Gain.
steel production has gained mod
erately at Pittsburgh and Chicago.
Several of the larger companies are
operating at fractionally higher rates
than last week. The tapering of new
business. principally in the heavier
products, which had affected schedules
at some mills. apparently has been
checked Moreover, this loss of ton
mage has been offset to a considerable
extent by larger releases of bars, sheets,
strip and wire by the automobile
makers.
The first announcement of expected
increases in pig iron prices comes
from a New England maker, whose
competition has been largely foreign
iron. The shortage of pig iron in Eu-
rope has restricted exports to this
country and Atlantic coast consumers
will be more dependent on domestic
supplies, which are none too plentiful.
Rail Orders Heavy.
indications of substantial purchases
Of rails and equipment by the rail-
roads are multiplying The Ensley
(Alabama) rail mill has started pro-
duction run that probably will last
five months on accumulated orders.
Other rail buying in substantial
amounts is expected within the next
few weeks. The Burlington road may
buy $3.50 freight cars and loco
motives. the Union Pacific 10 locomo-
tives, the Western Pacific 10 loco
motives and the New York Central may
order so engines instead of the so re-
Gently inquired for. A large Eastern
carrier is considering major car pro-
gram.
Pig iron production in October, as
estimated by the Iron Age from re-
ports on Monday. totaled 1892 1858
gross tons. compared with 2,730,293
tons in September. the daily rate hav-
ing been 96,547 tons. against 9l,010
tons in the previous month, a gain of
a little over per cent. The daily rate
was the highest since June, 1880. when
it was 97,804 tons. Furnaces in blast

HARDWARE SALES
SET NEW RECORD
October Volumes Advance
Far Above Year Ago in
Most Areas,
Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK, November 4.-October
in hardware sales has set another good
record in retail and wholesale volumes,
gaining substantially over its 1885
figures in almost all parts of the
country. A few sections reported that
too much mild and rainy weather
delayed the movement of Seasonable
lines. but it seems certain that Octo-
berS average gains over the same 1885
month were larger than the increases
in either August or September. This
means that the tide of betterment is
still rising. Hardware Age will say to-
morrow in its market report.
This has been the best season In a
number of years, for the sale of stoves
and ranges. A great variety of new
patterns in oil heaters and oil cook
stoves is offered. and these are grow
ing rapidly in popularity. Price levels
have been reasonable.
Wholesalers report that incoming
orders for holiday goods, including
toys and Winter sports items, are
Doth more numerous and for larger
quantities than last year. Sleds and
ice skates, whose retail volume is
largely gamble on the weather, have
been no exception in their liberal
early ordering. Last season brought
a general cleanup of dealers stocks
on these lines, and the clean slate
has helped toward this years good
start.
There continues to be a notable
demand for carpenters and me-
chanics' tools, not only from the
artisans themselves. but very largely
from the farmer and householder,
better times having lifted the demand
toward the better qualities.
