of the year iO1 $50 tons of domestic pig.ron and
lGl iDi tons of icrcign pig Iron The total sup
ply was D. ISIS gross tons At the close of the
year we had on hand lSS 800 gross tons of domes.
tic pig .irou and 1858 tons of foreign pir-
iron, which being deducted from the total sup
ply gives us i,9s2,5Gi gross tons as the probable
consumption of the year. In the annual re-
port for the year lsSO published In July 1881 the
consumption OF lSS0was placed at B. 800 as gross

for that year that were taken above for ISL An
