The Iron Ore Market.

Ine mcst Important development
OF the week was the demand 81 She
mango valley furnace workers for one
and half days pay for Sunday labor
and double pay on legal holidays.
The usual thirty DAYS notice was
given. At New Castle the furnace
men answered by giving the men I'M
til next Monday TO withdraw their
demand. The time is the most inop-
perfume the men Gould have chosen.
and it may turn out that they will
bring about the very condition that
is desired for the health of the mar.
ket, but that no deliberately attempt
ed combination could produce. The
advance. which means about five per
cent additional labor cost on every
ton OF iron, has been uniformly re-
fused. and it remains to be seen
whether the men viii go out. No de-
mdnd has been made as vet in the
Mahoning valley. There has been
some accumulation Of stocks in No
vember, but there will be partial
counteracting Of the weakness in
Bessemer by the changing Of two or
three valley stacks TO foundry and
kmill irons. The price has gone below
sl2 in the valley on speculative Bes-
semer, a sale OF 1000 tons being re-
ported at sIl.90. In foundry irons
there is somewhat more inquiry. and
the end OF old contracts is az hand,
but buyers are waiting until January.
We hear Of sI3.25 sales Of No. 2 in the
valley. with sl4 maintained by sellers.
on No. l. \ sale Of No. 3 was made
at sl2.5e valley furnace.-Iron Trade

The Concert.

The Rebecca Mckenzie Concert
company held the boards at the Opera,
house last "Wednesday evening. Not
as large crowd was present as the
merits of the company deserved but
the enthusiasm was unhounded and
the performers We're forced TO respond
to numerous encorers.
Miss Mckenzie is vocalist whose
ability is superior to any vino has
grared Ely's stage with their
presence. Her Scottish ballads were
particularly fascinating. Miss Elsie
Fellows, in her violin selections, was
the fayorite of the audience. Her
touch and manner Of handling the
king OF instruments was grand and
Miss Fellows was the recipient OF
much applause Miss Bertha O'Reilly
substantiated the fact that she was
master On the piano by the various
choice selections rendered. Alto
gether, this was one Of the finest
concerts our people have ever had the
pleasure of enjoying and should Miss
Mckenzie and her estimable company
ever appear here again no doubt the
Opera house would not be adequate
to accommodate the audience.

An Unprincipied Job.

Some poor. miserable, despicable
coward. whose supply Of gray matter
would not make a spoonful, during
Friday poisoned the large nlastiff
dog owned by Manager Pengilly. and
it is claimed. also tried his nefafious
calling on the mastif owned by Man
ayer Stgrteyaat. Mr.. Pengilly's dog
was found Saturday morning on the
street near the Exchange hotel dead.
while the other conquered the dread
foe and still lives. From al indica-
tons. powdered glass had been fed
the dogs by some unprincipled wretch.
To take spite on a dumb animal for
some real or imaginary wrong in
fiieted BY its master is an act to low
for the iInps Of hades. The party or
parties who did the intellectual n
piece OF work had better bide low or
they may hear something drop Tar
and feathers is none too good. There
is no man living. but what would
rather see his dog shot. than to LesiI
of its being tortured in the manner
shown Saturday.

local product at interior points.
Mitchell s Mcclure and the B. B.

Dunn-s Review.

Business is still sluggish. as if
gorged by excessive indulgence Of the
appetite for buying when prices were
advancing. Ii nearly every branch
stocks not yet distributed to con-
sumers stand in the way Of new
orders, and competition Of produc-
ing force largely exceeding the present
demand puts down prices, that decline
retarding purchases yet more After
the holidays men look for a larger
demand whether large enough To
support ali the producing force
awakened to activity by the abnormal
rush Of buyers last summer remains
