He pointed to the fast that pickets were still on duty today 4 before the different plants and that they had succeeded in gettink twenty- three more men from going to work at'the new plant of the Remington company. Mr, Savage reiterated that he knew nothing: about the statement of J.

Mr. Keppler also sald that the pickets would be called off duty. ‘Await Gompers Arrival 1t was said by Mr. Savage and by # other heads of International unfon that the ¢oming of Samuel Gompers, President of the American Federation of Labor and the other leaders with whom' ne conferred in Washington ‘yesterddy, was awaited with interest. Many of the labor men thought that Mr, Gompers and his associates might take some action to bring the { strike to 2 successful close. A large body of policemen remain- ed -on guard before the new Reming- ton plant, and the shops of the Union Métallic Cartridge company today. Men and women with ‘signs of “don’t be a scab,” pinned across their ndts walked ihrough the streets.

The feeling crops out here and there that prices on export business apart from war requirements may be put up too fast. Thus far, while domestic demand has continued at the: high rate of June, there has been little indication that consumers are buying ta fore- stall pricé advances. The disposition still appears to digest first those al- ready made, It is estimated that more than 400,- 000 tons of steel for munitions, chief- 1y bars, is under negotiation, the plac- ing of much of it depending an deliv- eries. From 2 to 3 cents is asked for shrapnel bars, makers having realized that much of the early war, business went at prices much too low. Russia’s Needs. Russia’s further rail-requirements are variously estimated. In addition to 60,000 tons placed with the Lacka- wanna Steel company and 100,000 tons With ‘the Cambr:a’'Steel company, op- tions havé been taken in this country on round lots. West Australia has been asking for 10,000 tons of rails, and an independent steel company is credited with getting the business. An open-hearth steel is being taken up for other purposes, rail makers are feeling less and less the absence of railroad buying. In New York city the public service commission has bought from the Beth- lehem Steel company 35,500 tons of main rails and 2,400 tons of guard rails. Car Companies. Steel contracts from car companies have been a good sized factor in all districts lately, and much steel is being figured on for cars yvet to be let. Chi- cago reports 5,000 cars now being con- sidered by the Union Pacific and 8,000 by the New York Central. The B. & O. has closed for 2,000 freight and fifty passenger cars. The Steel Corporation’s . operations aré now at aboui 91 per cent of its ingot capacity, while the Carnegie Steel company is employing close to 95 per cent of such capacity. At Chicago the larger operations of the principal plants have been due to the transfer of orders tHat would naturally be rolled at Pittsburgh. The tightening of open-hearth steel is seen in an advance in billets and sheet bars at Pittsburgh to $22 and respectively. with Youngstown prices $1 less. . London cables that American steel companies are much less disposed to accept British orders for semi-finished steel. The structural situation in the East is rather better. Resides 35.000 tons for subways in iramediate prospect. in- cluding 11,000 tons on which bids were taken this week, .000 tons of general work is represented in active projects. Steel-making iron is stronger, the consumption of basic iron being the largest in “two years. In . Southern Ohio a 30,000-ton .sale of basic is re- parted. but active blast furndce capac- ity is increasing at the same time. ‘ City Items % H. H.
