IN THE IRON WORLD.
Increased Product and Consumption
Reported.


Cleveland, O., Sept. 20-The Iron
Trade Review says to-day: The fact
that pig iron production has advanced so
rapidly in the past six weeks without
causing any accumulation of stocks. the
report for September showing that coke
iron on hand had further decreased in
August. has been taken as an index Of
considerably enlarged consumption. II Is
true that the weekly rate of pig iron pro
ductiOn Sept. l vas greater than in four
teen months, but most of the added coke
furnaces had not been long enough
IN blast on that date to AFFECT
stocks. There is no question that
production is now in excess of current de-
mand, ana IN Bessemer pig, which is be-
ing produced by more than four-fifths of
Mahoning and Shenandoah valleys, fur
Their weaking in price is noted. For de-
Hveries after this month there have been
sales as low as SLIPS, Pittsburg Steel
billets have shared in the decline and
$3.50 can be done for forward deliveries.
Here and there a fair amount of trading
is reported in foundry iron but the bulk
of the buying is of the small lot order for
quick shipment, and foundry men are not
unanimous as to distinct Improvement
Pipe founders are generally well supplied
with work and southern furnace men
have sold some round lots of iron on this
account There are evidences that
the low freights made some months ago
from southern points were prolonged to
certain northern territory after the gen
eral advance took place. While the rail-
roads have been freer buyers the past
month, their purchases are not of the
kind for which the iron trade has long
been waiting. Car shops are more active
and car-wheel founders have more to do,
though prices are at the lowest point. In
finished material there is sharp competi-
ton, and buyers are getting the advantage
of the anxiety of large producers to
keep up the present pace of operations.
In nearly every case the mills are deliver
ing more material than they are selling
and cut prices are inevitable. The hope
full phase of the situation is
the wide distribution of demand,
indicating that stocking up is
the general policy. Mills in Pitts
burg district and in the central west, in
GLIDING Chicago, seem for the time be ing
in better shape than those in the east,
though there is some indications that the
latter section is returning the attentions
western producers have been paying to
the cas- t.

DEMOCRACY VS.. PoPULIsM.
A Statement in Reply to Populist
Charges by Attorney General Ter.

A Statement in Reply to Populist
Charges by Attorney General Ter
rell.
Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 20-Tom Watson
and other populist speakers have been as
serting that the Democratic party in
Georgia has been extravagant in the
management of the government. To-day
Attorney General Terrell gives the fol-
lowing statement of facts, elfectually an
swering these charges:
The total appropriations for the sup
port of the state government and public
institutions for 1894, except for common
schools and pensions amount to
81, lis, 264. In this is included
500, 600 for the erection of an additional
building at the lunatic asylum. The
special taxes aggregate S69l, S46. De-
duct this amount, which is raised other
than by property taxation, from the above
amount of 81, lis, 264 and you will have
the necessary amount to be levied and
S423, AIS. The taxable property for
1894 is $427 100000. The rate neces-
sary to raise this amount of 1929, AIS is
99-l0O OF a mill, or a fraction over 80 cents
on the 81 ,000 The rate of taxation for
1894 as levied is 4. 81 mill or Si37 on the
thousand This is made necessary
by the appropriations for schools and
pensions. The appropriation for schools
is S9J6, 525 93, not including poll tax
To raise this amount it would be neces-
sary to levy a tax of 2.24 mills, or 81. 40 on
the thousand. The appropriation for pen
sions to soldiers ana widows is s460, 0O0
In order TO raise this amount it is neces-
! Sary to levy tax of .OS mills. or 81 0S on
! the thousand. To cover insOlyent lists and
TO pay tax receivers and collectors

/ thousand Is necessary. These aggregate
| rates make a total of 4. 81 mills or 81. 81 o n
/ the thousand. But for the appropriation
/ for common schools and pensions the tax
rate would be only SO cents on the
/ 81 900 Of property, which is far the
| lowest rate of any state in the union. II
! the appropriation for erecting additional
/ buildings at the luuatic asylum, which is
/ included in the above, had not been re.
/ quired by the act of 1898, this exceedingly
| low rate would have been about "a cents
on the thousand lower. In other words
the rate of - cents per thousand
would be sufficient to run the gov
eminent and meet all the APP
preparations, except the annex TO the
funds. The state of Kansas has popu-
list governor and a populist legislature,
The tax rate there for this year as shown
/ by the Kansas acts of 1898, is $40 mills,
S3.1O on the thousand. Nothing whatever
is appropriated in Kansas for common
schools and pensions. That state
has common school system sup
ported by district taxes, which is
an additional tax to the BIC
rate. Citizens are called upon by pop
ulist government to pay 1870 on the
thousand for what a democratic govern
ment in Georgia calls upon the citizens
here to pay 20 cents. If the people oil
