I'm the same time Bessemer pig iron
has declined from $3.50 and SO to SO,
the present price Of No. ! foundry pig
being $50 to S24. Bar iron in December
was firm at q cents, while now TINS

, 1t is very pertinently asked by an ex-
change, however, whether the decline
in iron Is not Indicative Of heaithiul re-
action rather than premonitory OF an
approaching storm. 1t might not De
difficult to show that american steel
rails at $45 a ton afford handsome
margin for. profit. Inasmuch as they
enjoy protection of s2s per ton, 1t Is
altogether probable that still further
decline would improve the trad with
out cutting down profits TO a damaging
extent.
The same fact no doubt Is depressing
other branches of trade. Prices were
inflated last year in consequence OF the
partial failure of crops, and they have
not teen restored to a basis in harmony
with a more fruitful season andanabun-
dant stock in all lines of production
What is felt as depression in business
is simply a pause, awaiting An adjust
ment of the markets to the change con-
ditions. When there is drop in prices
business will move forward.
The pernicious attempt to give politl
cal significance to the unsatisfactory
condition of some lines of trade does mo-
and will not be entertained. The oeS
answer to it is the fact that the people
have shown in q manner not to be mis-
taken, that the statement has no holt

citations were answered as they should

ONE Of the most important results of
Tuesdays victory, so far as the Demo-
cratic party is concerned, consists in the
fact that in the next House there will
be q majority Of Democratic States.
The significance of this result lies in
this: In case there should be three
candidates for President in 1884, and
the electoral vote should be divided
among them, 50 that no one would have
clear majority over all, the House
will by constitutional provision, be
called upon to elect 3 President. This
is done by each State casting one vote,
and that vote is determined by the del
egation from that State in the House.
In addition to the reliably Democratic
STAGES, there will this time be New
York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio,
California, Connecticut, Michigan, aud
probably Wisconsin and Illinois. In
case there should be q Stalwart aud
Half-breed candidate for the Presidency.
two years hence, and no election by the
people, the House would proceed to
choose Democrat.

GAS is to have another opponent, it
seems. The electric light is not to have
the field Of opposition all to itself. A
company with large resources has re-
Gently been organized to make gas by
the decomposition of steam and liquid
hydrO-carbon on highly heated lime.
The operation produces almost pure
hydrogen, which, being carburetted, re-
suits in gas Of between 3Oand 5Ocandle
power. The Process, which was discov-
cred by 8 French chemist and improved
by Polish one, is ssidto be economical,
and 1t is hoped that the new gas will
supercede coal for running engines, and
possibly in domestic heating and cook
cry. 1t is made without coal oil being
used in its preparation. 1t is to be test
ed in New York by one or more gas
companies, and lift comes up to expec-
tatiOns, it will take the place of the
ordinary article.

We referred, yesterday, to the alleged
depression which seems to affect the
iron trade at the present time. The
chief fact in support Of this statement
is apparently founded upon the condi-
ton Of the steel rail interest.
The decline in steel rails is compared
with the period in December a year
ago, when they sold for $50 per ton;
since then the price has steadily fallen,
