The same state Of affairs that have existed
since tho beginning Of tho week, remained un-
changed yesterday. Only one light boat ar
rived at the wharf with small load Of freight
which it carried from Wheeling for the Gin
cinnati boat. Word was received from Davis
Island that tho wckets were being raised, and
by Sunday it Is expected that they will be up
II has been suggested by great many that the
dredge boats should be put to work now, that
the river Is down and clear out the
bars between Lock No. and the
Sixteenth street bridge. These bars are
directly in the channel and have
caused number Of boats TO ground within the
past few days and every boat that gets stuck
It makes the obstruction much larger. Several
bars have been turned up In the Ohio below
Davis Island since the water went down. Two
boats have already got caught here. From these
statements II seems that dredge boats could be
put to some practical use just now The river
was still falling slowly last night and the rails

stream as yet. 1t 10 expected, though, by to-
morrow that there will be about eight foot

plants wer8 heard on all sides about the bad
condition of the marking stone below Market

washed away, and were 1t not from the fact
that marks were erected by the rivermen, the

IRON TRADE REVIEW.
Prices Are Unchanged, but the hot
Wave Has Had the Effect of
CUTTING THE NUMBER OF SALES.
Settlement: Of the Southern Strike Has
Caused Resumption.
THE MARKETS BOTH EAST AND WEST

The situation is practically as II was Q
week ago. The intensely hot weather Of the
early part of the week had the effect oi
diminishing sales. Many of the workmen
at the pudding furnaces were knocked out
by heat At the Edgar Thomson works
almost dozen succumbed to hot weather,
and one died on Tuesday from the effects OF
heat. Demand IL uniformly light at this
season. While there Ia no material change
in prices, there are always holders at this
quiet time OF the year disposed to cut on
market rates, being forced 10 do so by their
necessities.
Said one OF our leading iron brokers yester-
day: ave are now having our regular mid
summer lull, and the transactions are light.
But there are always few at this season
who viii! cut prices in order to replenish
their treasures. Markets. however, are
steady at last weeks prices, and all signs
point TO better prices when trade revives, as
il will do in the next 30 days, according to
precedent"
Another said: "We are having q quiet
sort Of waiting market, and, while there is
is no telling what the future will bring, /
have little iears of a drop. The Mckees-
port trouble with iron workers announced in
to-dayis DISPATCH has had a depress-
ing influence in slight measure on trade
But the outlook is as good as it ordinarily
is at this time, and look for q revival and
active demand before the first of August"
Cut nails are steady aIprices OF last week.
Wire nails are active at a shade higher
prices than have prevailed of late. Rails
are in good demand. The Edgar Thomson
Works have orders on their books sufficient
TO absorb their entire product until fall.
Wire rods are very active at higher prices
than last week.

REVIVAL IN THE SOUTH,
The Settlement of the strike Has Caused a
Resumption of Operations.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THK DIsPATCRI
BIRMINGHAM, ALA, July ia general
strike Of the coal miners in this district having
been averted, to the surprise of everyone, the
furnaces are starting up again and there is
some revival of the iron trade. Anticipating a
strike half the furnaces in the district went out
of blast last week, and there was little or no
iron selling. The miners having signed the old
sliding scale the wage question is now settled
for another L months.
Furnace men are accepting all orders for July
delivery at the prices prevailing for the past
80 days but there is still disposition not to
make contra cts far ahead at present prices.
The feelinz that prices will advance within 30
or 60 days rs very general here.
No big orders have been received and few
contracts made since the first but enough
small orders for immediate shipment are
coming in to prevent an accumulation of sur
plus stock. None OF the furnaces in the dis
trict are selling their entire output now, but
they are satisfied to stack up somewhat in an
ticipation of better prices little later on.
The Mary Pratt furnaces owned by n COM
pany OF the same name. was recently sold TO n
new company called the Pratt Coal and Iron
Company. Some of the minority stockholders
Of the old company went into court aad OBJ
tanned temporary injunction preventing the
transfer of the property. The Mary Pratt has
been one of the most profitable furnaces In this
district. 1t has paid handsome dividends with
great regularity and the minority stockholders
are probably afraid that with increased capital
stock and largely increased expenses these div
idends would not continue TO be forthcoming.
