Still Marks the Condition of the Iron Market
at Philadelphia.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.1
PHILADELPHIA, July 10-There is only a
single assured fact about the iron market
its intense dullness. 1t causes no surprise,
however, as it was expected; indeed, the
situation may be said to be in better condi-
tion than had been anticipated. There is
such a diversity of opinion regarding the
immediate future that one would have to be
possessed of second sight to accurately
foretell how soon this period of inactivity is
to cease. There is very little accumulation
of the best brands of foundry irons, as their
manufacturers have closely watched the de-
mand and kept their output closely up to it,
Good mill irons are also fairly steady at
Sl4 750l5 co, delivered, but inferior grades
or brands are hard to move. Both sides are
very conservative, sellers showing no
urgency to sell (if concessions are demand
ed) and buyers not being willing to take at
present prices more than is required for i'm
mediate use. The few small sales that have
been reported were within this range

There are no indications of early activity or
any advance in price. Steel billetSsare also
inactive, but prices are steady to firm. Lit
tie or no business has been reported this
week, not on account of price so much as
the fact that consumers are fairly well sup
piled. There is little inquiry for muck bars,
consumers having sufficient stock to carry
them over the current month. Despite this,
however, holders are firm at SIG 75@27.00 at
their mills
