The dt e was accelerated by bear drives. which accompanied rumors of import- ant changes in the personnel of the corporation's officers. Opening prices for steel common and preferred were the lowest reached since May 9. 1901. Later when the steel shares rallied. the new five per cent. bonds declined to 83. a drop of 1%. per cent. A mem- ber of the executive committee of the l'nltcd States Steel corporation is air— thority for the statement that the schedule of prices of finished iron and steel products for 1904 will show" no changes from that of this yctir. This applies to prices of steel rails aiul bil- lets.
