WEEKLY IRON TRADE REVIEW.
MiddIcmen and Manufacturers Oner
CNncessinns tn Sccnre nnsinCss.

NEW YORK. Dec. 4-The Iron Age will to-
morrow say: The weakest spot in the iron trade
has been the billet market, in which middlemen,
crowded by the mills to specify, have been ofrer-
ing down to $3.50 at works for soft steel TO
place small quantities The steel works are
holding for 81 money. There Is still some
outside Bessemer offerings at prices lower than the
furnaces are willing TO accept.
In the finished iron and steel trades the pres
to sell is Increasing and lower prices are
freely made whenever good chance is offered
to capture business. The only line in whica some
good work is coming up Is in ship plates for lake
weaker. During the past week the southern
foundry iron producers have been losing ground
and concessions Of 80 cents from the established
prices freely made. Furnaces in the GENITAL
west, which proiuce foundry graies have dropped
off very fast and are taking business away.
CHICAGO, Dec. 4.-The Industrial World to-
morrow will say: With two or three exceptions
and those for finished material the pig iron
market continues quiet but far has lost none
at a basis of $li for No. foundry. Plates are
in good inquiry and several transactions in lots
of l,50O to $500 tons Will probably be closed be-
fore Christmas at about 81 10 The low price
Of sheets, Sc. .55 for No 81, is proving attractive
II buyers and some large contracts have been
closed. There is better inquiry for steel bill
let's and rods. The contest between buyers and
sellers bar iron is vigorous one and the
efforts OF buyers to break prices amounts almost
TO desperation. The mills. however, OF the asso-
citation have not yielded to pressure and are not

CAITLE-The situation In the cattle mar
ket was anything but favorable to the sell
ing interests. The receipts We're heavy at
all the market points and prospects We're
favorable for a large run tomorrow. chi
cago reported $4,000 cattle, with the market
generally 15c lower, and the reports from
Kansas City were no more favorable. IN
der such conditions the trade here could
hardly be expected to be either active or
satisfactory to the selling interests.
There were Ill loads of cattle In sight
this morning, and, while a considerable pro-
portion of the offerings of beef cattle was
made up of half-fat warmed-up stun,
there were some pretty good cattle on sale.
The market was very late to open and was
slow and unsatisfactory from start to I'm.
ish. The buyers were very bearlsh, and
the market upon the whole was 10c and
in some cases 15c lower At midday
good many cattle We're. still unsold but
the yards were cleared before the close.
Cows and heifers, which have been in
good demand and have sold at pretty nearly
steady prices for some time back, did not
escape the decline today. The buyers and
sellers were a long time coming together
on trading basis. and the market was
slow at a. decline of 5ql0c, but in the
end the offerings were all taken.
Stockers and feeders We're not in very
was not brisk. spectators did not have
many cattle on hand and there were no
more than enough cattle to go around The
result was the offerings were pretty, well
cleaned up. and. while prices were lower.
