NEW YORK. June 25.—The market for steel is dull and easy. Mills are running at only about per cent capacity and, with competition Keen for what few orders are being placed, ing resorted to. Buyers are very cautious and are not anticipating their needs. At the same time, while stocks are not accumulating at the mills, as production is reduced, they are fully adequate, and there is con- siderable selling by second hands, which includes government holdings here and abroad. Pig iron is also quiet, with order: { confined to very small lots for imme- | diate use Prices arc irregular and | the market displays a weak appear- ance. Copper Continues Dall. Copper has been dull and easier. The rather better’ inquiry reported to- ward the end of last week failed to develop any actual business of im- | portance. The continuance of the | British coal strike and uncertainty of exchange rates still hold cxport business in check. A somewhat simi- lar influence on domestic business has probably been exercised by the | unsettled ruling of the grain, securi- ties and cotton markets, and buyers generally are operating only from hand to mouth. Meadwhile, some little pressure to sell for spot or prompt shipment has developed with dealers and some of the small producers, shading shipmént to about 12.75 ta, 13 for these positions. The “iarger | producers are not meeting this com- petition, but are considered practical- ly out of the market, and quotations for the third quarter now range from | 13 to 13.50 for electrolytic. Review of Other Metals, Tin lost a cent during the week, but subsequently steadied a little on better London advyices. Lead was lower, the importations of and continued slack demand offsetting firm London cables. In the zinc market there was con- tinued inaction among consumers and operators despite the easier price level. The East St. Louis quotation of 4.35 Is the lowest touched since 1908. ° Antimony was weakened by recent heavy arrivals and more en route, while demand shows no signs of re- viving. WOULD LIMIT PHILIPPINE DEBT TO FIFTY MILLION; Acting Governor Urges This -Amount Instead of $30,000,000 Provided for in Bill. MANILA, P. I, June 24—A debt limit of $50,000,000 for the Philippine government is advocated by Acting | Governor General Charles E. Yeater, inStead of the $30.000,000 provided for in the bill recently passed by the House and sent to the Senate. Mr. Yeater cabled the War Department today, urging that the bill be amended. Originally, the law permitted only $15,000,000 indebtedness. The amount was_increased to $30,000,000 by the House on representations of finan- cial urgency. ; “The bill.which passed the House provides for rectification of our- ex- changes,” said the governor general, “but we need $20,000.000 additionai to extend cash logns to the Philippine mational .banks.” —_— SELECT CLARKSBURG, W.

NEW YORK, June 25.—Liquidation | and professional pressure this week | caused more losses and low records ! in the financial and commodity mar- | Kets. Almost every rally in stocks was a signal for increased pressure and ! lower quotations, until many shares, | which figured in the table of averages, | were 75 10 200 points below maximum g quotations of the hysterical war period. Attention was temporarily divert- ed from Mexican Petroleum and other spectacular features by a break in United States Steel, whose heaviness was accompanied by more pessimistic reports fgom leading industrial cen- ters. Lixperts See No Improvement. Save in a few cases, including the textile trade, the business outlook, as viewed by conservative authori- ties, showed no improvement. Slower collections were reported by com- mercial agencies. with further con- traction of buying power. Sharp declines in exports last month —in many instances a drop of 50 per cent as compared with May, 1920— had a vital bearing on banking insti- tutions organized to handle post-war foreign trade, and the pioneer organi- zation of that character announced voluntary liquidation. Lowering of the British bank rate, despite adverse industrial and eco- nomic conditions abroad, hardly af- fected the international money mar- ket. All foreign exchanges were low- er here, with fewer dealings than any time since the extensive reaction in sterling bills. Domestic money rates eased. Traders expressed belief that local and in- terior banks would offer time funds more liberally in the year's third quarter. S —_— LIVE STOCK MARKETS.
