The street car force was notified at once and the planks were repaired before any accidents occurred. 13 an Unlucky Number. Thirteen might be a lucky number to some people, but to John Casey of 98 State street, who was arrested early this morning on a charge of drunkenness, it proved inlucky. Only yesterday Cosey had been arrested to appear in Judge Press's court to answer charges of surety of the peace, and after being found guilty he was put under peace bonds. Family troubles seem to be the cause of Casey's downfall, and thinking of no other way to drown his sorrows, Casey 3X1

STEEL BUSINESS HOLDS ITS OWN Strain in the Coke Situation RelievedNew York, June 18. The Iron Age says today: "Conditions in the steel trade favor a continuance throughout the summer of the present large scale of mill opera tions, with an advancing tendency in prices. 'Reports that an advance of $1 a ton on some of the heavier finished forms will be made July 1 may or may not represent the views of producers. They will at least be a stimulus to specifica tions in -June, which promises to show heavy shipments to save cancellations on low priced contracts expiring with this month. "Consumers have to reckon with some reduction of output in July and August, due to the heat; further, the losses of iron and steel works employe to rail road and other construction work pay ing higher wages, already a matter of some concern, will then be more se rious. Coke production In the summer Is apt to suffer from the same reason, "The strain in the coke situation has been relieved for a time at least, and prices for both prompt and contract furnace coke are lower. A sale of 15,000 tons a month in the last half has been made at $2.25 at oven and one of 6,000 tons a month at $2.15. Sales by an eastern dealer are reported at $2.10 for the second half. Sustained buying of rails has raised a question as to de nveries and it Is certain that some track work planned for summer months will go over to late fall, if It can be done at all this year. "Rail bookings thus far for 1912 are considerably larger than at this time last year. The Oregon Short line has taken 12,000 tons in the last week -and the St. Paul 15,000 tons additional. The Grand Trunk Western has placed 10,000 tons in this country and the Canadian Pacific is negotiating for 15.000 tons. New Baying of Sheets Feature. "New buying of sheets has been a feature, one manufacturing interest placing 10,000 tons and another 12,000 tons. The sheet mills of the leading producers have orders ahead for si months and its titiplate mills are book ed into December. Bar mills have two or three months' work ahead on pres ent specifications, and ' reinforced con erete work is still making large de mands. At Chicago bar Iron is $1 a ton higher. "Pittsburg and Chicago report that low prices by fabricators are less com mon. Bids have gona is -on 11,000 tons for the Adams Express company build ing, New .York, and.S.OOO. to 7,000 tons for the Chesapeake & Ohio coal pier at Newport News." Days News In Gary PLAYGROUXn FESTIVAL Nearly 3,000 pupils of the Gary public schools will participate In the second annual school play festival, to be held at the Jefferson school grounds. next Saturday afternoon and etvening, "Several numbers of the program will be regular physical work done dally at the different schools.
