pingiat Intervals for some time. The
Association Of Iron Dealers were too
greedy in the beginning of the new
prosperity In the East, and endeav-
ored to make too large profits out of
the increased demand of trade
caused by,tAHH1S cs66kncs. The
1cepssapepee. was that a great many
eAteibf3ses 4elp through or were
spestpened owing, to the, exorbitant
charge for iron. NoRW'that the rate

level, we may expect to see fresh
impetus given to many industries no.
tabfy ~ ne construction ofrailfoatis.
The building of a number of rail-
roads have been postponed of late
on d" account Of Tie high price of
iron, which increased the cost not
only of making The track, but of
rolling stock and almost everything
connected with the business of rail-
reading. The work on these roads
will probably now or soon be COM
menced, since such large reduc-
ton idlthe cDst bis Occurred. In
regard to the Bodie extension of the
tEAf.R.sR itSvss.said syssqmqe
that Mr.. Mills, who had purchased
the iron before the sudden advance
came, could make more by selling
itet they high fgmes than he lex-
pected to make out of the road
when SUIT. TMsAAlAy Q or may not
have been true, as to the relative
amounts, but there is no question
that his profits would have been
enormous and immediate If he had
sold tAs ifonA ahdl ! iesal.pa he did.
At that time it was reported aud be-
.lieved by the majority that the
road would not ~ built; nov the
general impression amongst those
