GLANCE AT THE MARKETS.
An Interesting Statement From the
Manufacturer.

This weeks issue of the Ohio Valley
Manufacturer contains the following report
Of market conditions, the first section I'M
der PittSburg date:
The holiday week was an unusually quiet
one in the iron and steel market. No bu-
siness of any consequence is expected UNI
til after the first of the year. Prices are
not likely to decline and when new bust
ness is offered it is predicted that still
higher rates than are now ruling will pre-
vail. The only transaction this week was
the sale of about 5000 tons of Bessemer
pig iron at s25. 1t is said that this price
was paid in the valley for the 1900 ton
order recently given by a large concern,
for iron to be delivered during the first
half Of next year.
The only line in the iron and steel in
dustry that continues in an unsatisfactory
condition is sheets. One large manufac-
turing concern has withdrawn all quota
tons and announces that it will make no
further quotations until trade improves.
Stock will be held until prices advance.
There is no immediate prospects for higher
rates in sheets and ne change in the sit
uaItion is expected until after the first of
the year. A general meeting of sheet
manufacturers is to be held early in Jam
uary, when the committee appointed to
prepare plans for a consolidation of the
interests will present its report.
1t is reported here that tin plate stocks
have been preatly reduced and that the
American Tin Plate Company contem-
plate starting the two large idle plants in
this city, the Star and Monongahela, early
next year An official announcement has
been made that orders for tin plate wifi
now be taken for the second quarter of
1900. This may result in the starting of
a number of the idle plants of the COM
biration all over the country.
The local mills are very busy rush
work or are closed down for repairs or
stock taking. Buyers as well as sellers
have withdrawn from the market this
week, and naturally the trade is very
quiet. However, it Is the lull that pre-
ceeds the storm.
Pif Iron.-The rate for Bessemer pig is
very firm at $24 and while a few sales are
reported the general impression that the
price will be advanced in less than 80 days.
Biilets.-With so many large orders
booked for delivery in the first four
months of 1900, sellers find few who are
willing to entertain any proposition at the
present price, $50 The trade seems con-
fident that lower rates will prevail.
Finished Material.-In sheet bars, sheet
steel, muck bars and skelp iron there is
little or nothing doing and prices are weak
and uncertain as to the near future. In
structural iron and steel the case is diff
ferent, so many large contracts still re-
naming to be filed that a firm market is
general
OH a;.a1 Ma ,,aO1 Of ,n11 a 81
ial that has been accumulated and brought
to the market has marked the enterprise
of the junk man, but he has overloaded the
market and must now abide his time or
sell cheap.

General Clarkes Condition.

General Clarke is now SO well ad-
vanced toward recovery that he sits up
and chats with his family with as good
spirits as if he had not been sick at all.
The reports that his aind has been al
fected by his sickness is simply oosh.
An APPEAL representative spent ht-
tsen minutes with him on Sunday and
he is the same Bob Clarke as ever and
his mind is as clear as a bell. He has
been reading the papers for several
DAYS past and is catching up on what
has transpired in the world while he
was 80 near TO the next and he takes
the keenest interest in everything that
is going on. He jokes with his friends,
exchanges repartee with his daughter,
Mrs. Roundtree, and has begun to en-
iOy life once more. For a couple OF
weeks past he has beer attended by
Mrs. Colby, the trained, army nurse,
who has done much toward assisting in
his restoration to health. He is gain
ing flesh and his appetite is improving.
There seems to be 40 doubt Of his
complete recovery.

Correct Data.

A few days ago the APPEAL pub
the remains of John p. Blackburn.
We were told the story by an old
timer, and evidently got it somewhat
mixed as the following has Deer handed
in as the correct data:
EDITOR APPEAL: Last week the
remains of John l.. Black burn were
removed from the old cemetery west of
town and placed in the lot beside hi.
daughter, Minnie, in the Masonic GEM
terry.
Mr.. Blackburn vas prominently
identified with the early history of Ne
vada. He was the first United States
Marshal Of Western Utah: assisted the
late Judge C~radlebaugh in holding the
first Court ever held in this district.
When the Territory of Nevada was
admitted he was elected Sheriff of the
County, which he served faithfully and
well. 1t was in the discharge Of his
official duty that he met his death.
He had warrants for the arrest OF
several Of the 'Mayfield Gang and
was in the act Of arresting Mayfield
when the knife was drawn and his life
taken. No weapon was drawn by him,
until the blow was inflicted. which was
in the back. MayfieId was arrested
and afterwards escaped frem the States
Prison.
All of this should be, and I dare say
Is, a matter of State or County
record.
Respectfully,
SARAH BLACKBURN FOSTER.
