U. 5. Steel 10 Extend
Sales Of Surplus
Raw Materials
Company Is Expected
To Offer Limestone
And Coal

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-The United
States Steel Corp. is expected to
extend its new policy of selling
surplus raw materials in the open
market to coal and limestone, ac-
cording to reports in steel circles
today.
The departure from the previous
course of retaining its own raw
material supplies was marked last
week by sale of 10000 tons of iron
ore from the Mesabi Range in Min
nesota to the Ford Motor Co. by
the Oliver Iron Mining Co., a SUBJ
sidiary of United States Steel.
H. c. Frick Coke Co., coal mining
unit of the big steel company, was
said to have entered the market as
a seller to outside consumers. Ferro-
manganese and limestone may be
offered in the near future.
Reasons for the new policy went
unexplained, but it was pointed out
revenues of the corporation would
benefit.

$27,700, 900 OutIoy
During 1889
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-E. I. Du
Pont de Nemours & Co. spent ap-
proximately $27,700,000 on plant
construction in 1889, and larger eX-
penditures are contemplated for
1910, Lamot du Pont, president,
said.
In statement from his forthcom-
ing annual report to stockholders,
released today, Du Pont added:
Some go per cent of the total to
be expended in 1910 will be for ad-
ditional capacity required in the
manufacture of relatively new prod
uctS."
Referring to the new synthetic
product, nylon, Du Pont said:
Various manufacturers have been
supplied with yarn, made in the
pilot plant at the experimental sta
ton at Wilmington, for experimental
knitting, weaving and dyeing. Hosi-
cry manufacturers have made many
thousand pairs of nylon stocks, and
tests have confirmed their excellent
wearing qualities.

Index Of New Orders
Indicates Further
Industrial Lag
Compilation by United
Business Service Is
Announced
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BOSTON, Jan. 29.-As a further
aid in forecasting the trend Of pro-
duction, the United Business Service
has just announced a new monthly
index of new orders fof business in
general. This index, based on con-
fidential reports from many lead
ing firms in key industries through
out the country, shows changes In
the month-to-month flow OF in
coming business, which in the final
analysis determine future production
rates.
The index of new orders is
weighted composite figure based on
the year 1887 as 100. It covers the
steel, textile, automobile, electrical
equipment, chemical, machinery,
building materials, shoe and house,
hold equipment Cincluding furni-
ture) industries. Weightings used
make the index reasonably COM
parable to the Federal Reserve pro-
duction index. It is not adjusted
for seasonal variations, but does
make allowance for the number Of
working days in the month.
Had such an index OF new orders
been available in the spring of 1887
it would have given clear warning
of the impending business slump.
The new index did forecast several
months in advance the upturn in
1898, the mild setback early in 1889
and the marked upsurge during the
second half of the last year.
New order volumes have shown a
steady downtrend since the Septem-
Der buying wave, the index for De-
cember standing at 1859. compared
with 1902 in November and 1882
at the September peak. The index
for December, 1898, was 600 This
recent downtrend appears to presage
some further slackening Of produc-
tion activity over the next few
months.

Buying Power Held
0verstressed as
Recover Factor
Guaranty Trust Says
Business Confidence
More Important
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-"The be-
lief that business recessions are due
to failure of consumers purchas-
ing power is one of the least securely
founded economic notions prevalent
today" the Guaranty Trust Co. said
in its monthly survey today.
In a general discussion of Pres
ident Roosevelts recent budget
message which forecast deficit of
$1,716, 10000 for the coming fiscal
year, the survey said:
THE recession of 1887, according
to the Presidents message, was due
to a variety of causes, stemming in
the main from overoptimism which
led the Government to curtail its
net expenditures too sharply for
consumers purchasing power to
keep pace But most of the unem-
ployment that exists in times OF
economic adversely is found in the
industries and trades that depend
for their demand not on con-
sumers' purchasing power but on
business expansion.
This expansion, in turn. depends
on the confidence of business men
in their ability to expand profitably
Variations in consumers purchasing
power to appear to be primarily an
effect, rather than cause, of fuc-
tuations in business activity.
1T follows that efforts to
strengthen consumers purchasing
power by incurring deficits are mis-
directed, as far as the stimulation
of recovery and the prevention of
recession are concerned. Relief ex-
penditures may at times be neces-
sary from a humanitarian and a
political standpoint. They may even
succeed in maintaining a certain
minimum level of consumers pur-
chasing power, as long as Govern
ment credit and the value of the
currency hold out.
But as an economic expedient
designed to improve business condi-
tions they are beside the mark.
They strike at effects, not causes.
There is far less evidence to sup
port the view that the 1887 recess
sion was due to breakdown of
consumers purchasing power than
that it reflected a failure of capital
to flow freely into business expan-
sion in the face of the numerous
obstacles that had been placed in
the way of profitable enterprise"

sion firms in the Thomas W. Brahany.
country, with branch Offices in many
cities. The new combination was
designed to make one OF the lead
ing brokerage and underwriting or
ganizations in the financial district.
Under. the arrangement, effective
March 30, Charles E. Merrill, now
a special partner in E. A. Pierce g.
Co.. will become a senior partner
along with E. A. Pierce.
The new firm will be known as
Merrill Lynch, E. A. Pierce & Cas-
satt. 1t will have AZ Offices, mostly
branches, now conducted by the
Pierce wire system throughout the
country.
Cassatt has operated branches in
Pittsbm gh and Altoona. Pa.
Cities covered by the Pierce Offices
include Akron, Boston, Buffalo, Chi
cago, Denver, Detroit, Houston, Los
Angeles Milwaukee. New Orleans,
Minneapolis, Philadelphia, Portland,
Greg: San Francisco, Washington,
Seattle and San Antonio.
The Pierce organization has men,
bership in the New York Stock Ex-
change and other leading security
and commodity exchanges of the
country.
The other two firms do not have
stock exchange memberships.
The consolidation was seen in
stock exchange circles as another
step in the merging of brokerage
and investment houses to handle
the reduced volume of Wall Street
business.
Despite general industrial revival
last year, stock exchange dealings
in shares were the smallest in many
years. So far this year the turn
over has been smaller than it was
in the comparable 1899 period.
Cassatt g. Co. formerly was headed
by Robert Cassatt, son of Alexander
Cassatt, one-time president of the
Pennsylvania Railroad. T. Johnson
Ward now is president of the Cas-
satt organization.
Thomas w. Brahany, manager Of
the Washington Office Of E. A. Pierce
g. Co., stated today that Joseph H
Hines of this city, for the past Is
years member Of the firm Of E. A
Pierce & Co., will continue as part
ner in the new concern.
Mr.. Brahany added that so far as
he knows. there will be no changes
in the present personnel of the
local Office which is located in the
Transportation Building at Seven
teenth and H streets NV.
Ward, it was said, probably will
become partner ip the new setup.
The Merrill Lynch and Cassatt
organizations, it was noted, will sup
plement in the general investment
and underwriting field the Pierce
brokerage business.
The Merrill Lynch business was
founded in 1914 and is regarded as
pioneer in chain store financing.
Merrill acquired a financial interest
in the Pierce firm in 1880.
