Just then the boat capsized and we were all plunged Into the wat er. uusning was the only one near me, and he said, "For God's sake save me!' I swam with him towards shore and told him to w.de to the beach, but he keeled over.. I then carried him In. My mouth was full of the dirty water and lt was choking me.

June 26. The Iron Age says: "The amount of business going on the books of the steel companies is more than would be looked for in view of the policy of so many buyers to avoid contracting beyond what is ab solutely necosary. "The railroad in particular, owing to present restrictions on their financial plans, are for the most part limiting their Iron and steel buying to the reI newal of contracts for supplies required ny tneir every day operations. Some of these are Just now coming in for the seconi half of the year. "There are some rail inquiry, but new bridge and car work has fallen off. At Pittsburgh actual orders for plates, bars, and steel pipe have been larger thus far in June than in tho first twenty-five days of May, and this statement is put forward as about the extent of encouraging information from that market. "Our Chicago report says that in structural shapes, bars, and sheets the buying the last week has been heavier than in sixty days. But at Chicago implement companies have not yet bought bars to the expected amount, though at Cleveland bar business from such companies has recently bten more active. Consumers have not ceased to urge deliveries." That must Is clear, and the way in which jobbers stocks are being drawn down also Indicates sustained consumption. Thirty days more may anewer the question whether these job bers will again place large orders with Jthe mills. "Thus far weakness in prices of finllshed material, apart from an almost I complete , disappearance of premiums. is chiefly in sheets, wire products and rivets. In semi-finished steel prices are I easier In the east "In eastern districts the structural steel situation has quited down, and work recently let shows a more ag gressive attitude by some fabicators. 'Pig iron prices have settled to point at which more buyers are attrac ted. The situation as to houthern Iron is not entirely clear. Business has been done at $10.50, Birmingham, for No. 2, and there are rumors of something lower by tired holders of warrants That a considerable tonnage bas been quietly closed is not unlikely, and a large interest in the Chicago district is again Indicated as a probable buyer.'

At the Yc-ungstown. Ohio, works the open hearth department will continue on rails." The upper and lower mills are crowded with orders. Most of the large orders during the last week came from the Pacific coast and from the middle west, railroad orders in the main being of small volume. Steel plates and sheets continue easy and wire products are irregular. The pig Iron market remains dull. Price concessions of from 25 to 60 cents per ton have failed to attract buyers to the market. More furnaces have been . blown in and an advance in prices is looked for during the next month. .Consumers, however, are? inclined to believe that lower quotations will be reached and are holding out of the market. The Pennsylvania Steel company works at Steelton has heavy orders on hand and many of the mills are late on their shipments.
