L'. S. Steel Earnings.
Analysis of the recent nufilcd ton-
nage statement of the United States
Stu-l Corporation indicates that ship-
ments of steel during August Were
maintained at approximately the rate
prevailing for some time past. 011
that basis it is expected that net
earnings for the current quarter will
be as large as they were during the
second quarter, when they reached
847.858.181.3or about 84.63 a share
on the common stock. it is recalled
that shipments during the second
quarter represented a large percent-
age of old business placed before
prices Were advanced. The ship-
ments during the current quarter, on
the other hand.. represent an in-
creasingly larger proportion of busi-
ness ordered on thebasis of higher
prices. As an outcome the average
profit on current business will be lar-
ger per ton war! that for the first
and second quarters.

Frontcnac on the historic bluffs as
"the Baron of Renfrew and reti-
nnd prepared to start tomor-
row for the little ranch in the west
where he hopes to play cowboy for
a whole month.
Word has preceded the liner that
the Baron wanted none of the for-
malities due a. crown prince when
ur- reached the dominion. Neverthe-
lcss, crowds loaded the pier for
hours before the ship docked.
awaiting the opportunity to see and
cheer him.
“Baron Renfrew is still sleeping."
was the word passed ashore when
ship came in. The crowd awaited for
three hours until he came down
the plank. It contented itself with
cheering and flag-waving from a.
respectful distance. leaving little
work for the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way police. assigned to maintain or-
dcr and guard the visitor.
Official “'clcome
An automobile whisked the Prince
away to ills hotel where later an
official welcome was tendered by
Major O'Connor. aide-de-csmp to
Baron Byng. governor~generah This
call. with those made aboard the

That the Prince hasn't forgotten
all the American and Canadian
girls he left behind him after his of-
ficial .tour of the continent three
years ago was revealed by passen-
ger: he confided during. the voy-
age.
Often. said Justice Tessier of 5

naively remark: "I suppose many of
the girls I danced with are married
and settled down by mw."
