Expected Boom In Iron.

RegarjiIg the manufactured iron
trade the .duaridl World OF Chicago con.
tains tht following remarks: There
are some conditions that resemble the
days just brior to the boom OF last year.
There se4m TO be in the immediate fu.
ture, commencing with 1881, several gi.
gantic "a road projects growing out Of
the rival es OF the great railway mag.
mates, which are destined 10 give us
several trInk hines across the continent.
Apropos Ito this We learn that the
Northern Pacific has purchased $4,000
tons OF ails. The orders for these
were paid with various mills. The
indicatioIt all point to a tremendous
business n the next year. But it is
hoped an rather expected that prices
will not | allowed to rise to As high q
pitch "a before. In fact there are re-
straining Influences which will operate
to keep bI Ick the tide Of high prices.
Last seas u when prices went up manu-.
iacturs rs held their stock for a still
further Il Ivarce. This season they will
sell. 1t no part Of their purpose to let
prices ris, 30 high as to let in the foreign
iron and hey will fight against it. Be-
sides theII is good prospect for obtain
inx ore atIyery much cheaper rates than
last year. 1t will be remembered that
when theI,ontracts for ore we're made
last seasIn the stipulated price wa'
$3.50 pc ton delivered at Clevel' nd
and othe lake ports. But as manufat.
tured iroI fell the owners OF the mines
voluntarily reduced the price 10 50 500
10 90 per on. thereby making rebate
on validI contracts to the extent OF
S5.OOO,ONt A very competent Judge
indulyes In the prediction that ore will
next seastn be sold on an average of
s. 90 peIIton for red specular. and Soc
to 81 per Jon higher on Besscmer ores.
The prodhct of the mines last season
was aboul 1000. 900 tons, or very nearly
the amo,|nt estimated by the Industrial
World eaIly in the season. The chances
are that ,he production for next year
will not itll short OF that produced this,
but as il is not natural to expect as great
an effort 10 increase the output when
iron il low ~ as when it is high, there
may not bo quite 80 large an output IA
otherwise might be expected.
