dictate a rate thatif kept up for the
balance ofsthe ore year-that Is, to
May l. lS99-would yield total con-
siderably beyondd3.5OO,OO0 tons. the
estimated shipments for 1893. The
acquisitions OF the furnaces upon
dock stocks, which were very light
last year after the close of navigation
will be quite heavy this year, direct
shipments not having been possible
to the extent desired, owing to de-
ficient car service. Shipments of ore
east of the Alleghenies this year, esti-
mated early In the season at 100000
tons, have come close to l ZOO. 900 tons.
The bearing of these various factors
upon the ore trade of 1899 is already
being canvassed. Some increase i'm
mining wages for 1899 seems certain
Lake frieghts will naturally be some
what higher in view of the transfer
to the Atlantic Coast of boats capable
of carrying about 100000 tons in a
season. Yet the export trade in steel
and other considerations which have
been canvassed heretofore in connect
ion with the ore outlook, will limit
any advance that may come, toa nom
inal amount. Non-Bessemer proper
ties, in particular, will welcome an ur-
ward movement, for no one claims
