PHILADELPHIA, April 24-The improve
ment in the iron market noted a week ago con-
tinues, and while it is far from being in
healthy and settled condition, the manufact-
urers are gradually regaining confidence and
feel more encouraged than they did at the be-
ginning of the presen: month. But for the
labor troubles which seem to be increasing
rather than diminishing, there is no doubt that
much of the present general depression would
be thrown off, and once this troublesome ele-
ment is removed 4 portion of the activity so
marked in 1890 will be regained. There is one
point which generally conceded, namely;
operators cannot afford to pay existing wages
at the present prices they receive for their
products; the former must either be reduced,
or the latter advanced. or else g long stoppage
viii be experienced the coming summer. The
pig iron market is undoubtedly in a better con-
ditIOn than it was week ago, both as to activ-
Ity and frmness in price. Standard Pennsyl-

CHIcAGO-The Wheat market was unsettled
and nervous To-day, and was subject to fire.
duent and sharp fluctuations. Uncertainty as
TO the situation out of conflicting cables made
operators cautious. The net result of the
days tradings was a loss in value of about 1c
in the July option, 11ac in April and May. July,
the ruling option, opened at 81 093IGl 101s,
against 81 105s91 1011 At the close yesterday.
and soon touched 81 O95s A bear syndicate,
which attempted to break prices, was brought
up with a round turn. While the syndicate
did not come to grief, it nevertheless was
frightened enough TO lie still for some time.
After going to 81 09aa July rallied quickly TO
81 10I. but was loaded with a large lot of prop
erty put out, and the market broke to 81 O915.
At the last the bears plucked up courage for
anot her raid. and their sales broke the price to
81 09% Toward the close, July rallied to 81 IL
cables reporting higher Berlin markets, and
dispatch saying RoumaDia would prohibit
exports of maize because OF depleted stocks
there. Just before the close, there was another
break, and the market closed easy az 81 Os5sQ
l 091S.
A successful raid was started in corn. July
was broken from 6734c down to 661sc, but was
tuned up to 66c on liberal purchases.
There was free selling of long oats, which
caused break of aG7Sc. Prices hardened
little later in the day, but were 1l9ssc lower at
the close.
The opening in the provision market was
rather firm on the reported 1rmness of hogs at
the stock yards. bnt speedily weakened on free
selling, and. after fluctuating frequently within
moderate range. closed with loss of l59I715c

Gossip About Electric.
Business in local stocks on call yesterday
was narrow in range and small in volume.
The active interests we're Westinghouse Elec-
trio, Second Avenue Electric. Philadelphia
Gas, Peoples Natural Gas and Switch and
Signal. Total sales we're 1856 shares.
The feeling at the opening favored higher
prices, but it was not supported by results,
and sentiment drifted the other way though
figures remained about the same. Philadel-
phia Gas closed fraction under the opening,
in which it had the company of Electric. The
latter sold here at 1877 and 1874. closing at 1875.
The last sale at BUston was at 1875, closing
offered at lSH. 1t was handled very gingerly
at both places. fractions about held their
own, and the miners scarcely budCed.
There was some talk about the meeting of
stockholders of the Electric and Manufacture
ing Company next Tuesday. Some were OF
opinion that the long-looked-for statement or
MIR. Westine house would be made at that time,
duty he owed 10 the stockholders. 1t was
also hinted that new deal in the management
would be made, but as the company permits no
news of this kind TO escape, nothing definite
can be said on this point. 1t is an old story
anyhow. Considerable dissatisfaction was ex-
pressed with the manner in which the BOOKS
were closed, cutting off transfers until next
Wednesday. 1t was said that no formal notice
of this was given.
New Y ork was firm at the opening but weak
ened toward noon on announcement that 81
ESQ., 600 gold had been ordered for shipment to-
day. There was rally later in the day. Lead
Trust was down q fraction from the highest of
the day before. Panhandle, both preferred
and common, closed better than the opening.

HAS TOUCHED BOTTOM.
The Market at Chicago Is Expected to
Improve Before Long.

Improve Before Long
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DrsPATcH.i
CHICAGO, April 24.-Rogers, Brown and
Merwin say: Several additional sales of large
size were made in this market of Lake Su
perior charcoal, on the basis of prices reported
a week ago. 1t has been claimed by various
parties that figures of SIG "a. Chicago. have
been made, covering deliveries during the last
six months of presen: year. Explanation
of these exceedingly low prices is that several
furnaces nt this class have piled up heavy
stocks and have reached the point where they
have been obliged to unload. A number of the
leading companies, however, have declined to
meet prices quoted. preferrIng to hold their
metal Indefinitely and take chances on better
prices later in the summer. Two three
stacks have blown out already in consequence
Of low market. and a number of Others are cer-
tain to stop unless prices materially improve.
Ii is evident that the low figures now being
named on certain brand, cannot long exist, and
large consumers In this district, realizing this
are anticipating their wants and buying part OF
their stock much ahead of their usual time.
Local coke irons continue active and some
good sized sales are reported in this direction
Southern cokt brands remain quiet and are
held at unchanged prices The feeling is gen.
orally gaining ground that the market has
touched bottom as to prices and that an i'm
prnvement VIII occur as soon as the usual
spring and summer buying becomes general.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
SCoTTDALE, April A.-The coke trade dis
plays signs of marked improvement. Over
"a 600 tons were sent out last week. and the in
dications are that that amount will be even
surpassed this week. Coke producers are re-
gaining confidence. and more vim is noticeable
in their actions. With an abundant supply of
cars and plenty of motive power shipments are
hurried through to their destination. The
strike continues and over 12 400 ovens are idle
in consequence. The active list is estimated at
over 35U0.
Big efforts are being made to fire more
ovens. The Frick Company has its Jimtown
and Sterling plants iull and its MOrewood,
Leisenring No. 2, Leith, Davidson, Kyle and
Adelaide plants in partial resumption. The
Mcclure Company has Its Painter plant In
partial resumption, and Coalbrook is running
full. Whitney continues in partial operation.
while Cora and Chester are full. There are no
changes in the operations at Cochran's three
plants, and Rainey and the three independents.
Sherick, Percy and Hogsett, are working in
full. The shipments last week aggregated
l,Si3 cars and averaged almost 224 cars day.
The following was the record of shipments: To
points west Of Pittshurg, 7S4 cars; to Pitisburg
and river iIppies, 440 cars; to points east of
Pttsburg, l50 cars: total, ,3i3 cars. Prices are

furnaces. The directors fell in with the
scheme, and while some details remain to be
perfected, Mr.. Hillman. very cautious man,
announces it will go through all right and the
steel mill will be built. The only effort to
make steel IN this district was bv the Hender-
son Company. which constructed two SO-lon
furnaces. The experiment tailed from want OF
money, and on account OF the smallness OF the
plant the furnaces are idle. Renewed attempts
are being made to procure more capital and
start them up again.
Some apprehensIons are beginning to be felt
here as TO results when the coal mining scale
comes to be arranged in July next. One con-
tention by the operators during the recent
strike was that the scales in existence were
contracts till July. and there are indications
that the miners will call for an increase when
the scales are renewed

BUFFALO. April A-Rocers Brown Co.
say: Although it cannot be said that there
has been any radical change of feeling among
consumers of nlg iron in this territory during
the past few days, yet there certainly is to be
seen returning confidence. 1t is difficnlt to
tell why this Is so, but as the conditions of the
market are practically unchanged il is only
fair To assume that 1t IS due to a better outlook
for trade. The general run of buying still con.
tlnues to be of a haud-;o-mouth character. i'll
dIcating small stocks in foundry yards. Care
ful investigation confirms this theory. 1t has
bcen quite common OF late to find large
foundnes without more than ten days supply
of pig iron on hand, where formerly the same
foundrieS carried from 500 to 1000 tons as a re-
serve. This unusual action augments the
stock held at the furnaces, the total of whosr
tonnage is supposed to show the condition of
the iron trade TO the country. while stocks in
the yards of thousands of consumers are left
out. 1t is easy to see that should any reaction
now occur, it would be all the more violent on
this account
