MINERAL PRODUCTS. 15 According to present information, 1 there are strong indications that American steel is already needed abroad. Inquiries for steel products are being received by domestic manufacturers from con sumers in England, Scotland, Japan, and South America. Con sumers in England whose supply from Belgian mills has been cut off are placing orders for their immediate needs with American manufacturers. The demand for steel products on the Pacific coast became very active after the declaration of war; therefore the open ing of the Panama Canal becomes at once a factor of great impor tance to the steel industry and should result in the permanent trans ference to American mills of a large part of the Pacific trade hereto fore placed with mills in England, Germany, and Belgium. The United States has heretofore had only a fraction of the trade with South America in iron and steel and machinery, but our man ufacturers are now actively canvassing the possibilities of extending this trade, and the prospects for increasing our share of it are bright. MANGANESE. A serious phase of the interruption to commerce caused by the European war is the shutting off of the foreign supply of ferro manganese from the steel manufacturers of this country. The do mestic marketed production of ferromanganese and spiegeleisen in 1912 and 1913 was 227,939 long tons and 226,475 long tons, respec tively, and the imports of these alloys for those years were 100,152 long tons and 128,147 long tons, respectively, of which ferromanga nese constituted 99,137 tons in 1912 and 128,070 tons in 1913. The imports of these alloys therefore constituted 30.5 and 36 per cent, respectively, of the available supply in 1912 and 1913. England and Germany have furnished most of these imported alloys in recent years. By far the greater part of the ferromanganese produced in the United States is manufactured by steel companies for their own consumption, so that those manufacturers who have heretofore de pended on foreign supplies must either make arrangements to pur chase the needed alloys from other domestic companies or else enter the field as producers themselves. In either event much more ferro manganese may have to be manufactured in the United States if the foreign supplies are cut off for any considerable period. Added impetus has thus been given to certain projects which are under way for the utilization of the manganiferous iron ores of the Cuyuna Range, Minnesota, in the manufacture of high-manganese pig iron and ferromanganese at Dunbar blast furnaces in Pennsylvania. With regard to manganese ores, the situation presents features of still greater interest. Notwithstanding the abundant supplies of manganese in the United States, its domestic production has been relatively small, but the imports have been so large as to indicate a Iron Trade Review, Aug. 20, 1914 ; Iron Age, Aug. 20, 1914,
