STEEL PRODUCT ADVANCES Tin Plate and Rivet Prices Marked Up; Contracts for Plates Under Market.

Athough official quotations have not shown any advances a number of independent tin plate product manufacturers have marked up the price to 13.60 a box, an advance of 10 cents a box above the market price. This is due to the strength of the market and the constantly, increasing demand for

this product. One ef the largest independent steel companies has advanced the price of struc-tural and boiler rivets $3 per ton to $1.80 par 100 pounds for structural and $1.90 for boiler rivets. The price of bolts and nuts will be advanced in the near future. An independent manufacturer in Pittsburg has taken a contract for 15,000 tons of plates at $1 a ton lower thnn the current market price. Many of the mills are gtttlng premiums of $1 a ton above the market price on plates.

The contract for the new building at

46-50 Broad street has been let to Post McCord, and the 5,000 tons of structural steel required will be furnished by the American Bridge Company. It is probable that the contract for the new building on the Equitable site will be let in a fey days, calling for about 35,000 tons of structural material. Bids will ba taken before the end of

the month for loO.OOO tons of structural steel for the B. R. T. subways while the Interborough requirements

of 90,000 tons will be before th

market soon. Another large contract 1 000,000 worth of engines, which is the

end some of its pasengers had trouble this morning at Calumet bridge in

Gary over the refusal of the conduc

tors to accept the red commutation

tickets. Similar trouble occurred yes

terday.

The company sells eight red tickets

for a quarter. They are good only during certain hours in the morning and evening and are designed for the

use of workmen. Ordinary commuta

tion tickets sell 6 for a quarter.

It appears that the company does not wish to accept red tickets for carrying passengers clear , from the steel mills to the Ridge road. Because

the red tickets were only honored as far as Calumet bridge a racket ensued

today that was necessary for a police

man to stop it.
