Western Iron Works Preparing to Shut
Down.

CHICAGO, Oct 18.-The iron works, includ-
ing the blast furnaces at Leland and Frank
fort, near Milwaukee, will stop when their ore
stocks are exhausted. The proprietors say the
dullness in the iron trade, with q prospect of an
increase in stocks of iron, does not justify
continuance of work at present. The Lake
Superior and Menon.enee range furnaces are
reported to have largely increased their pro-
ductions. The current years output of ore
shows an enormous gain over 1881, and the
prospects favor accumulated stocks OF ore and
pig iron at the close of the year.
