Sims, the A. P. A. lecturer was mobbed
at Kaukauna. The mob Of 1000 peo-

CLHvKkAND, Jan. 90.-The Iron Trade
Review this week says: While the gem
sral impression still prevails that indus
try IL ON the road to improvement, and
that the iron trade b responding to the
movement in other Lines, IL u still din
cult to marshal specific indications Of
bettermsnt. In none Of the primary
markets for iron has there been any CON
siderable buying in the week just clos
ing. The plight Of the ore trade,
to begin with, has been emphasized by
the failure of an important 0ogsbic
producer, and the protests now moving
to Washington from all over the Lake
Superior region sre strongly reinforced
by this demonstration that the iron ore
producers Of the country cannot stand an
added finger weight of competition.
In pig iron there u little disposition on
either side Of the market to make q
move. The expectation is general
among pig iron producers that a better
demand is just ahead, and most of them
are cautious about forcing matters.

it Is, no matter how mary other terms
are applied to it,"

Warden Wolfer to apply to the district
