Commercial Notes.

One Beaumont saw mill shipped last week
| $4,000 feet Of lumber.
There arc more than 6l,0OO0OO acrcs of
lind In the Indian Territory, and ifoyon oone'
half of II was sown TO wheat II would yield
In ono year, Mt twenty bushels 10 the acre,
moro than 600O0O,0OO bushels.
New York adyices state that during the
past two weeks not less than 10000 tons OF
foreign steel rails have been contracted for,
Mt prices ranging from S73 10 SSl ut New
York. Several parcels of iron rails have
also been ordered. The prices named were
equivalent To S73 for heavy and $50 TO 500
for light sections, delivered at Nov York.
Tho foreign importOtions at New York
Inst week were the heaviest on record, Sl3,-
S79, 0l0, of which S6,032,807 were dry
goods Several delayed steamers came in
during the week, md tho cargocs of these
helped to make up this unprecedented total.
Iron, coffee, ten and sugar are among the
most conspicuous features.
The arrivals of foreign pig'iron at New
York for the week ending tho End inst, az
gregated l0,2SO tons, fully 5000 tons of
which has gone into store. There Is also
anoat considerable quantity of iron, and it
is expected TINT tho arrivals for some time
will be heavy; all of which, at a tlmc so IN
opportune as the present, when activity
seems for the moment to possess the Market
tends TO still further dcprcss prices.
The arrivals of finished iron from abroad
were heavy during the week ending March
., the number of bars being estimated at
nearly $4,000 to New York alone. The
amount of foreign iron in the market at
present Is larger than it has been for many
years, and its presence tends to weaken the
price of domestic iron. The card rate for re-
lined bar Mt New York is still quoted at de,
but 3,Sc more nearly represents the actual
figures at which sales are being made.
