STEEL TRADE STANDS STILL New Business Shows Nominal; Week One of the Poorest in Year. FINISHED BARS IN DEMAND Crop Outlook Encourages Implement Makers ; Railroad Buying Poor. Specifications for all lines of finished material In the iron and stel trade con tinue good in Chicago district, but the amount of new business is nominal in character, the week Just closed havin been one of the poorest of the year in that respect. Steel bars lead in activity among the finished lines, largely owing to the ex cellent crop outlook in the middle west with resultant orders from the manu facturers of agricultural lines. Bar iron has receded to its former price of $1.20. Chicago, and low prices on steel bars are still in evidence, notwithstand Ing the activity in this line. Tracn bolts have been shaded 50c a ton. Aside fnom an order for 1,200 tons of standard rails from the Illinois Steol company by the Canadian Pacific and the fact that the Chicago, Indianapolis and Louisville railway is taking prices on 1.000 gondolas, there is nothing special to note in railroad buying. ll Iron Market Stronger. In the pig Iron market an encourag Ing note is the fact that the foundries are not delaying In taking out the ton nage specified in their contracts and that practically al hold-over deliveries from the first half have been cleaned up.' Although southern furnaces con tinue to hold out for $10.20, Birming ham for future delivery, it is possible o uu,n iur ii..i.iCuilc on a $10.00 basis. jf urnaces are not particularly active in seeking business beyond the close of the year, although there is considerable Inquiry for next year. This is largely fourth quarter of thia year and the-first quarter of next year and for first j quarter delivery alone $11,000. In some ! cases $11.25 is asked. Northern Furnaces Show Weak. The comparatively weak position of the northern furnaces all those situat ed north of the Ohio river has a drag ging influence on the market at ths present time, as in the south stocks have ben largely reduced and a' good many stacks have blown out. North ern furnaces, on the other hand, are not only carrying heavy stock but are making more iron than they are selling at the present time. A number of propects of considerable siie are pending, but there is a slight lull in the structural steel market of the west at this time. Contracts re ported let this district last week will require about 3,000 tons of steel. In the Chicago scrap market lower prices are ruling. Market for, railroad wrought has settled down to $10".75, f. o. b. Chicago, with shafting quoted at $1 4.50 15.00, and iron car axles at $17.75 per net ton, a decline of 25c. Holdings of the Santa Fe railroad are j now estimated at 40.000 tons, with nj immediate indication of being reduced. GARY IS SILENT ON ROOSEVELT TESTIMONY Steel Trust Chairman Re turns From Europe and Asks First of Morgan. New Tork, Sept 18. Chairman E. H. Gary of the United States Steel Cor poration returned to America from his two months' vacation in Europe on the Lusitania yesterday. . "How is Mr. Morgan?" inquired Judge Gary, eagerly. "He seems to be all right," was the reply. "The whole world, and especially the American people, would like to know from you Just what was accomplished by the international conference of steel manufacturers at Brussels this Sum mer," Judge Gary was told. "Not a word on that subject now," he responded, with deprecatory gestures. "Everything that was said at the Brus sels conference was taken down in short hand and is now in print. Hasn't it been distributed to the press yet? It must be in our effices here. I'll see to that as soon as I get to ray desk." "You followed the testimony of the witnesses who succeeded you on the stand in the Congressional Steel Cor poration Inquiry after you left for Europe, didn't you, especially the testimony of ex-President Roosevelt?" the reporter asked. "I kept up withit pretty well and read what I suppose was most of Colonel RooseveU'a- atateme-nt." replied Judge Gary. He would not say what he thought of it. James A. Farrell, president' of the Steel Corporation, greeted his chief as soon as Judge Gary reached the Cunard

Astoria

AGITATION IS STARTED ANEW Revival of the city market question is to be taken up by the Gary Commer. cial club. The market move, which was backed by the times, ana wnicn was to be taken up by the city council a month ago was dropped when Mayor Knoots went west. Tha Commercial club is now to lend a hand to the newspaper support, ana the question will be taken up at the next meeting. Officials of the club are now getting public market data from Des Moines, Dayton, South Bend, Columbus, Indianapolis and Baltimore. One member of the club proposes that either Washington or Massachu setts street be used for the market. "Two blocks of the -stroet could be used for the stalls, which would be built in one side," said he. "Have the market open on certain days from 4 to 10. Follow the plan in other cities where the market idea has been successful and tne e8t of livlns wm be If we attract farmers to Gary they will bring their produce here. What's more before they leave they will spend hundreds of dollars with our merchants." ' WAS NOT MISS GERMAN (Special to The Times. ) Indiana Harbor, Sept. 18. Through misinformation The Times on Saturday made the announcement that Officer John Lazar had married Miss Mollle German, the young woman for whose hand Officer Lazar had been a suitor and whose marriage with a rival he had frustrated two weeks ago. when Miss German and the rival eloped to Crown Point. Officer Lazar' s bride was not Miss German btu Miss Mary Christin, and the knot was tied by Judge Nicholson In Crown Point in the presence of a num ber of friends of the contracting par ties. There were two automobile loads that went over on the business of mar rylng the popular officer and his pretty bride. One of the machines was that of Fred Gastel and had in it besides Mr. Gastel, Officer John German and his wife. Officer Lazar and Miss Christiu. The other was the car of Otto Seehase and was occupied by Mr. Seehase, Ser geants Frank Barker and William Hughes and Constable L. W. Sarec The arrest of the bunch for speeding was a frame up. After th knot was tie.-i the avitna re turMd th way thev had come, tha one I wnloh the brid and ernom was spat. ed, however, being highly and suggest ively decorated. Cficer Lazar and his bride are not satisfied to let:their nuptials go with civil marriage, but will "have a church celebration next- Saturday, when they will invite their friends' and a general high time will bu Indulged in." The bride has been living at the Harbor hotel in company with her mother and an uncle, John Christin. MASSACHUSETTS LABOR FEDERATION Haverhill, Mass., Sept. 18. Repre sentatives of the various trades unions throughout the state, and In large numbers, were assembled In this city, when the Massachusetts branch of the American Federation of Labor opened Its annual convention. The convention will continue its sessions until all of its business is concluded, which will probably be late in the week. CYCLE SPILL INJURE RIDERS Kenosha, Wis., Sept. 18. Hugo An derson of Waukegan and R. Buist of Racine are both in the Kenosha hospital as a result of injuries received in the motorcycle meet here yesterday. Buist and Anderson both spilled while rac ing. Buist escaped with bad bruises. but it is feared that Anderson Is in ternally injured. He was unconsciou : for several hours after the accident. SMALLEST MAN' DEAD London, Ont., Sept. IS. The famous "Little Russian Prince," smallest man In the world, dropped dead today In i the Grand Trunk waiting room here. He was 36 years old, 27 inches high land weighed 46 V4 pounds. He had bee I ill a year with heart trouble. Th body was sent to New Orleans for burial. t The 'prince' was in Gary during June, 1910. during the Eagle's carnival He attracted much attention during "hi visit here, he was "arrested" and taken to the police station in the auto patrol and "fined" by Mayor Knotts sitting 1 tha city court.

IN AND AROUND Q A R V

Capt. Phipps Better. CapC Samuel Phipps, chief of the American Bridge company's private police department, is able to be around again. In the auto accident at Ambridge avenue nine days ago the capJain sustained a broken arm and internal injuries. His subordinate, William Hilty, at patrolman, was instantly killed when a South Shore limited car struck an auto in which they were riding. . Whiskers Has More Trouble George Walters, the little German stone mason, who wanted Al Burke arrested because he trimmed his whiskers, claiming that they got . Into his (Walters) beer and were germ carriers, Js meeting with much trouble. When CUyvJudge Wildermuth didn't Sive Walters a warrant quick enough

he intimated that the court was a

grafter. Thereupon the Judge got down from the bench and Jcicked "whiskers" out of the court room. He returned again, but got no warrant. , He says that he will apply to Justice Huber for the warrant. . To Fix Tax Levy. Gary's common council will meet tonight and the principal business that w-ill come before it wil be the fixing of the levy for the ensuing year. It Is expected that the city levy will be 1.60. This amount will bring the city government $300,000 for 1912. Completion of the budget estimates made by department heads show that ! about $25,000 a month or $1,000 per working day -wil be Tequired to conduct the city of Gary for next month. Usually this amount is greater and the chances are that the city will spend about $350,000 before the year 1912 is passed. Declines to Discuss It. .William C Crolius. Gary's democratic politician returned to Gary last evening after a four months' vacation spent at his summer home at Delavan Lake, i Wis. His family will follow him In a few days. He Is making arrangements for a pecial meeting of the Thomas Jefferson Democratic club which will be held at the Gary hotel on Tuesday evening. eptember 19. Mr. Crolius declined to discuss the Gary bribery cases wherein his chief rival. Mayor Knotts, vjs the central figure. Young's New Idea. Hereafter cornerstone laying of all public buildings in Gary will be accompanied by the placing In the receptacle a roll of Gary moving picture films.. This will show another gen eration what Gary looked like In 1911. The idea is that of Vernon Young;, manager of the Orpheum theatre. A Sad Death. Rolland. the two year old son of Mr. and Mrs. John Blackburn, is dead at 635 Madison street, where the mother is visiting. .Mri Blackburn is in To ronto. I APPLIES FOR FRANCHISE The application of the Indianapolis, Chicago and Meridian (interurban) arilway company for a franchise in Gary will be taken up by the Gary board of public worksc today. Application for franchise rights In Gary was filed with City Clerk Moose on Saturday by At torney William Dunn, local counsel for the road.

The proposed route is from Indian-i apolis to Valparaiso, Gary, Hammond and Chicago" Via Montlcello. THE TIMES IS TRTIXO HARD TO MERIT THE SUCCESS IT HAS ACHIEVED.
