Steel Makers Consider Breaking
1901 Pool Agraement to Get
Easy Profit.
v .
CHICAGO, March 13.—Steel makers
are consldering informally but seriously
the possibility of advancing the pride
of rails after holding them -utlggny
through 4 pool agreement since 1904.
Producers admit that there |s still a
brofit in selling Bessemer rafls at S2B
and open hearth at S3O, But with Be§-
serer billets up to S3B and S4O a 4 ton,
the steel makers are buinning’ to de
bate whether they are morally nd to
proteet the railroads and forego an easy
profit of $lO to sls a .ton. { ,
In 1858 Bessemer rails sold at sl9 until
late in the year, when the pri¢e broke
to $16.75. During 1900 the price aver
aged about S3O a ton. The railroad in
torests, realizing that there could be no
widespread ?rosperity with the steel
producers selling below cost, agreed to
the uniform prices, ptices which have
proved to be materlally,higher than the
laws of supply and demand would have
fixed. Bessemer billets have been above
§2B but @ few times in the intervening
vears. Out of 168 months billets have
been above S2B but 33 months.
The rflillron.da and utility companies
would make a strong protest against
{he advance if it were announcsd,
However, the recent orders of rails and
the attempts of rallroad companies to
get their orders on the books of the
mills even for distant delivery indicates
the belief of the management of many
roads that rails may be advanced.

‘attributed to Carranza's notes to the

Velo'ped a steadier tone and nervousness
‘diminished on the announcement that

level.
After midday there was a general rush
to buy contracts, based on bullish spot

of lnst vear they will do as well as can
be expected
Despita the fact that the opening

o 16e g-r dozen highar on practically all
sizes than the opening quotations for
the 1915 pack, ths mo‘o this year ap
pear 1o have Atted buyers' ideas.
The advanee of the alze of the pack
over the previous season has been so
regular that buyers have been ahle to
sount with some precision on tha size of
the stook. The total foek for 1915 was
770,000 ?uc nn&mr 914 1t war 768,000

Weakness in Winnipeg Depress
ing Influence—Coarse Grains

—————
CHICAGO, March 13.—~There was &
general rush to sell wheat at the start
to-day and prices were down ¢ to 7ze.
The conspicuous weakness in Winnipeg
had a depressing influence on the local
market. The market was nervous and
the rally in c¢orn that followed the open-
Ing helped make a rally gn wheat.
Corn was off 4c at the outset, but
a few minutes after the opening local
shorts took the buying stde and prices
rallied to above Saturday’s close,
Oats were unchanged to Y%4c lower on
selling by local traders. There was a
fair volume of buginess.
Provisions were lower.
Wheat closed with losse of 1¢ to I%e,
corn was off l4¢ to 3¢ and there wera
losse in oats of e to B¢,
Cash saies here were: Wheat, 30,000
bushels, corn 50,000 bushels, oats 70,000
bushels.
Around the hottom prices reached for
wheat during the day there was excel
lent buying by investors and consequent
reaction, and prices gained I%c¢ to 2%ec.
Corn reacted sharply from the bottom
and ocats also displaved more strength
than during the morning, when all of the
Eralns were hammered downward un
necessarily,
Hog products were lower for lard,
while pork and ribs were higher. s
