AUGUST MOST PROSPEROUS
MONTH OF YEAR FOR STEEL
NEW YORK, Aug. 30.—Tomorrow the
steel companies will close the most pros
perous month of the year. Greater prog
ress toward higher prices, production and
hooking were made in August than at any
time since the improvement began i
Concept of opinion in manufacturing
circles is that activity will be carried well
into next year, with prospects that 1913
will be the best year in the history of the
steel industrt.
The showing of the stee,l companies in
the last quarter of the year will he ex
ceptionally favorable. It would not be at
all surprising if the United Staes Steel
Corporation reported earnings In excess
of $35,000,000 in that period.
