THE IRON TRADE.
At the weekly meeting at Wolverhampton
on Wednesday, the reports showed that the im-
proving state of the iron trade was well main-
tained. There is now a sufficient demand for
\ all but heavy work to keep the men pretty fully
employed, and there is every confidence that
better prices will be soon forthcoming than
have been long enjoyed. The pig-iroa trade is
active, and prices are stiffening.
