The Irnn Market.

PITTsBURG, January 3l.-The improving
tendency In some branches OF the iron and
steel trade noted last week was apparent
throughout the present week, though
neither the movement in nor prices OF fin
ished materials underwent any marked
changes. From Chicago the reports were
excellent, indicating activity in steel rails
and general track supplies The Illinois
steel works, it was said, would start up
next week with fresh orders for steel
rails aggregating more than 100000
tons. An Eastern mill, 1t was also
reported, had secured an order
for several thousand tons from the Central
railroad OF Georgia on basis Of $50 at the
mill The railroads are evidently in the
market, but they are holding of TO test the
strength Of the mills. There was a fair
degree Of activity here in manufactured
iron, wrought iron pipe, structural iron,
merchant steel, nails and old material, at
about unchanged prices, though some con-
cessions were made in manufactured iron,
and nails were shade higher. Wire rods
were again quoted higher, but others re-
manned as previously reported.
Pig iron was weak and lower, notwth-
standing the largely decreased production.
"Thus far" says an authority, "the shut
ting down of so many of the valley fur
naces has had but little effect upon prices !;
i'm fact, they are lower than before. The
trouble comes from furnace men whose

AT the annual meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the Bellaire Nail Works, on Satur-
dav. two new members were chosen on the
Board of Directors. This action was a
surprise, especially when the two retiring
members are among the oldest on the
Board. VIM. Sharp, at present manager
of the Nail factory, and Edward Jones,
manager of the blast furnace, are the two
retired. Their places were filled by the
selection of c. w. Brockunier, OF Wheel
ing, and Frederick Seabright, OF this city
The change, we learn, was made at the
instance of some Of the stockholders
who thought it advisable not TO
have any of the managers about the
works on the board. The company made
an excellent showing for the past year.
The dividends amounted TO 10 per cent,
and we are informed that the reserve fund
is about one-third of million dollars. The
policy persued by the management, while
not TO the liking Of all the stockholders,
has been conservative and careful, and as
"A consequence has resulted favorably in the

likely that the present clerical force will be
retained.
