IRON TRADE REVIEW.
Local Transactions Light and the
Market Favors Buyers.
PRICES OUT OF ALL PROPORTION.
Slight Change for the Better Noted in
the Southern Field.
REPORTS FROM THE LEADING CENTERs

The situation is practically as 1t was a
week ago. Transactions are light and mar
kets remain in buyers favor. In the Ma
honing and Shenango Valleys about 25
furnaces have shut down in the past week
or two, for the reason that to run is to lose
money at present prices of raw materials.
The few that are still running manufacture
their own coke. There is no question that
at present prices of pig iron the manufac-
turer is loser. SAID one OF our leading
brokers: "The only question is as to the
extent of the loss, since it is absolutely GER
tain that iron cannot be produced without loss
at present prices"
Steel rails and nails have not been as dull for
several years as they are at present. The
stringency of money markets has, no doubt,
much to do with dallness of trade in iron and
steel lines. IL is certain that the cash buyer
would find producers in either line ready TO
shade somewhat on our quotations. All along
the line of iron and steel products trade is
very slow, and there are no signs of improve
ment in sight. Some dealers report slight i'm
provement in tone of markets over last week.
Following are values as reported by leading
iron brokers:

Bear ATTACKS meet Win more resistance,
but Nearly All Changes Are Slight
Losses-Lead and New England
.-a Eac1r Score Advances.
NEW YORK, Jan. l6.-The stock market to-
day was still less active. but on the whole dis
played greater resistance to the hammering
operations of the bears than yesterday. and
while most stocks are lower tonight, the losses
are in most cases insignificant fractions, while
few material advances were scored.
The outlook for the days operations seems to
indicate that the silver scare will not be of long
duration. There was in the afternoon per-
ceptible easing up in the foreign exchange
markets. and the fears that gold would have to
be exported in the near future were ALA yed for
the present, the foreign buying of the fore
noon also helping to bring about this state of
feeling. The heavy drives at values were made
with the special object of uncovering some
large orders which were believed 10 exist, but
the selling met demand In those stocks which
completely foiled the attempts.
In the early trading, after generally weak
opening, New England and Chicago Gas be-
came strong features, and the strength in these
properties, with the marked demand for foreign
houses, helped to rally the list sharply before
the close of the first hour. The foreigners
however, becoming satisfied, the hammering
operations were renewed with vigor and prices
yielded all along the line Missouri Paciic the
Wizards, Sugar Retineries and Lackawanna

There was another drive at the list in the
afternoon, which forced prices Off still farther
and, at the lowest points, declines from last
night extending TO 2per cent were shown. The
general list, however. was only slightly
changed and with the easier condition of
foreign exchange and the most pronounced
ease in the money market. the shorts went into
cover in the last hour, with the result of nearly
wiping out the losses. The industrials were
prominent in the late rise. Lead in particular.
The market closed active and strong at
slightly under first prices. The final changes
are generally for small losses. but the only
marked declines were Wheeling and Lake Erie,
2; Sugar, ~. and Union Pacific ! per cent,
while Lead is up lN and New England.
The dealings in railroad bonds were still
moderate, but the heaviness in stocks were
communicated to this branch of the market to-
day. and most OF the changes of note are in the
direction of lower figures. The transactions
