Pig Iron aud Ore

are attracting the most attention. The ore
contracts for the year beginning June lst
have not yet been made, the ore men hav-
ing been in state of wait" that they
may note the effect of the new duties on
the pig iron market, and the furnacemen
have been delaying in the expectation of
securing reduction in price. They would
put up Kindly with S., but up to date the
ore interest has not given indications of
modifying the tender of the reduction to
50, which was made some time ago. The
demand for pig must begin soon, the mar
ket having undergone for two weeks past
the sniIeniug which follows considerable
inquiry. Naturally enough consumers are
inclined TO besriShness, inasmuch as they
have to meet certain reduction of duty.

Meeting of the Pig Iron Associat

Meeting of the Pig Iron Association.
PITTSBURGH, March 2l.-This morning
the regular monthly meeting OF the West
ern Pig Iron Association was held at the
manufacturers headquarters on Fourth
avenue. Although the attendance was
large but little time was occupied in the
deliberations, as the session lasted hardly
full hour. After adjournment, however,
an informal conference of some length was
had.
Those who gave the little information
allowable in regard to the meeting said that
merely routine business was transacted.
Trade was reported as Frightening some.
what with prices considerably tirmer than
those of few weeks since.
1t is said that measures will soon be
taken to arrange the basis of contracts for
the next year between the ore producers
ard the pig iron men, as at present there
is disposition among the latter TO bring
down the price of ore. A gentleman who
is in q position to know said that the fur
mace owners were inclined to shut down
until ore contracts can be made on more
favorable terms, but those concerned in
the meeting this morning state that the
subject was not broached.
Last year there were 100000 tons of ore
left ever on the docks from Lake Superior
mines This was almost 10 per cent of the
entire production of that region, which
was :. 800 600 tons. The ore men this year
say that they will only produce 1,5O0, 900
tons, as they do not intend to glut the
market again, but will let the stocks of ore
on hand be used up closely before they in.
crease the output.
Since the
Tariff Schedules
were settled as much as the passage of the
conference bill could settle them, the iron
and steel industries of this district have
taken on less cherries aspect than was
the case previously. There has heen con-
siderably more inquiry In the pest TWO
weeks, and, as stocks in the hands of manu-.
lecturers and jobbers are light, prices are
tirmer though unchanged. The anticipa.
tions during the pendency of the tariff in
final passage. The mills possessing a
good name with consumers are not
taking orders for assorted bars below q
two cent basis, and a fractional addition
for small orders. Steel is looking up, and
for the very good reason that it was so fat
that 1t could not look in any other direc-
tiou. Relative to rails il is authoritative

brief intermis,ion, he has given the best part
Of his energies to tic service. To his wis
dom, 10 his self.saciitice, to his large inilu-
encc in and beyond the State, the Institution
owes great part of its prosperity. How
