Another Fraction
To 53.4 Per Cent
Institute Report Cites
30.7 Per Cent Level
Of Year Ago
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK. Feb. Corporations
in the steel industry for the current
week will advance 0.6 Of / point to
53.4 per cent of capacity, compared
with 52.8 per cent last week. the
American Iron and Steel Institute
estimated today.
A month ago operations were at
the rate Of SIT per cent of capacity,
while year ago they were 30.7 per
cent.
The Steel Institute announced
that beginning this week the esti-
mate was based on revised capacity
for the industry of 1883 ,969 tons as
of December 81 last, compared with
the previous base of II ,O65 $40 tons
as of December 81, 1887. Figured on
the former base, this weeks operat-
ing rate would have shown a slightly
larger increase.
CLEVELAND, Feb. 6 (PD.-Ingot
production in the steel industry
reached SO per cent of capacity last
week-the years highest level-the
magazine Steel reported today.
The demand for finished steel i'm
proved in spots. it said, with busi-
ness generally well sustained. Addi-
tional orders for bars and railroad
materials were placed. but a con-
tinued quiet market in sheets and
strip was forecast since mills have
worked of heavy backlogs accumu-
lated last quarter and some con-
sumers are not Immediately in need
OF extra tonnage.
An improved outlet for heavy
steel in Eastern shipbuilding yards
was foreseen. however, along with
better demand for tinplate in the
approaching seasonal buying of
packers cans. Purchases by the
automotive and construction indus
tries continued on a conservative
basis last week, the publication said.

ported consolidated net income for
1898 of $50,19O,827 after charges,
compared with $88,O31 ,943 in 1887.

terment and Lammot du Pont, presi-
dent. said proportionate expendi-
