IRON AND STEEL MARKETS
ARE QUIETING DOWN.
Buyers Withdrawing Frim the Markets
TO Test Present Prices-Steel Hoop
Concerns Consolidate.

NE WY0RK. March S0.-In its review
Of trade conditions. the Iron Age says:
In many branches the iron and steel
markets have quleted down simewhat.
This is due In certain lines to the with
drawal of sellers pending the completion
of arrangements for a consolidation of
interests. In other branches 1t is due
to the fact that buyers do not share
the confidence of makers in the mainten-
ance of present prices and are beginning
to test them by withdrawal from the
market. Many are now buying from
hand to mouth.
In the foundry iron markets business
has quieted down considerably, although
reports from southern markets report a
further advance. Opinions vary greatly
as 10 the capacity becoming available
through the blowing in Of new plants.
There is no doubt that every means is
being exhausted to get idle furnaces into
line. In Bessemer pig the market has
now been reestablished by the sales Of
the association at sl45O valley furnace,
The report that the sale Of 1900 tons TO
the National Steel Company and others
had exhausted the supply from that
source is pronounced absurd.
There has been considerable move
ment lately in foreign and domestic

State and Navy Departments Are En-

WASHINGTON. March S-The serious
condition Of affairs in Samoa engaged the
attention OF officials throughout the day.
and there were conferences at the White
House between the president and secre-
tary Hay, and at the state department
between the secretary and the British
ambassador and Baron Won Sterner first
secretary OF the German embassy. but
Oh; OF it al not word OF additional In
formation wss contributed from any Of
iclal source.
The only authoritative siatemeu; came
from the navy department giving a
brief dispatch from Admiral Kautz. This
threw no light on the latest outbreak,
and, owing to the tangle of dates. 1t
served only 10 further involve the mys-
terry.
In view Of the fact that the fighting was
widespread and long-continued, and that
the foreign Offices at London and Berlin
had been officially advised OF the affair,
1t was regarded as somewhat strange
that the state and navy departments
should be entirely without information.
The demonstration in Samoa is regret
ted. but the opinion is expressed that
Kautz acted on what was his best judg-
ment and information. The state depart
ment Acknowledges that no o-r q
agreement can be reached under treaty
in which all three powers do not agree.
and hopes some settlement OF the diff
Guilty may be brought about when it be-
comes apparent present conditions cannot
exist indefinitely.
KautZ acted within his instructions,
and there is no doubt, with the facts now
at hand, that he will be sustained by the
United States government.

THE ADVANCE ON MALoLos.

Nebraskans, South Dakotans and Penn
sylvanlaus Under Heavy Fire.
MANILA. March SL-7:s5 p. m.-The
United States troops rested last night in
the jungle about a mile and a quarter
from Ma;olos, The days advance began
at O'Clock and covered a distance OF
about two and half miles beyond the
GulguInto river along the railroad. The
brunt OF the battle was on the right Of
the track where the enemy was appar-
entity concentrated.
The First Nebraska. the First South
Dakota and the Tenth Pennsylvania
regiments encountered them entrenched
on the border OF the woods and the
Americans, advancing across the open.
suffered terrific fire for half an hour.
Fcur men OF the Nebraska regiment were
killed ana 50 wounded. Ten men OF the
Dakota regiment were wounded and one
OF the Pennsylvanians was killed. The
Americans finally drove the FRipinos
back. Although there We're three lines
OF strong entertainments along the track.
the enemy made scarcely any defense
there. General Macarthur and his stan
were walking on the track abreast OF
the line, with everything quiet, when
suddenly they received shower Of
bullets from sharpshooters in the trees
and on house tops, but they were speed
lily dislodged,
The enemy's loss was apparently small,
the jungle aftordlng than such protection
that the Americans were unable to see
them, and in firing were guided only by
the sound OF the Fllipinos' shots The
American artillery was Handicapped for
the same reason. Last nights long line
OF camp fires made beautiful sight,
with the Twentieth Kansas regiment on
the left of Gulginto station and the
Pennsylvania regiment on the right be-
yond the river, The provision train was
delayed by broken bridges, but the
stores OF grain and tiocks OF ducks in the
locality furnished ample forage,
The hospital work is remarkably eff
acient, as 1t has been throughout the
whole campaign.
Teegraphers keep abreast Of the line
and maintain constant connection with
