guess at facts than to ascertain them dispute the
statement that the output Of pig iron has not
been controlled or in any sense monopolized by
any corporation. They imagine that the great

Pittsburg, has been giving details Of the output
actually controlled by all the great companies In
this and In other countries. AS its returns Of
the production during the first half OF 1890 were
surprisingly close TO the official figures finally
