A heavy decline has recently taken
place in steel rails. prices having fallen
90 since Jan. l. This gives opportunity
for saving Of several hundred dollars
per mile in railroad construction. A good
story is told of jaw Gould in this connec-
ton. Last October he calculated that he
should need about 10000 tons of iron and
steel rails during the ensuing IL months.
He accordingly purchased that quantity.
A month or so ago. prices having begun
to 60 down, Mr.. Gould suddenly threw
10000 tons of his recent purchases on the
market. losing an average of $3.50 on
each ton sold. Immediately there was the
biggest sort of tumble in prices. and
Mr.. Gould was able to buy back his 49,
600 tons at from 81 to S5 less per ton than
he had paid last fall. a net profit of about
IS per ton through his late sales.
