The Iron Room in Wall
Street.

The old saw that iron is more
precious metal than gold was the in
vention of a philosopher of slow mind
and limited foresight 1t is perfectly
obvious that if mankind were forced
to an ultimate choice, it would cleave
to iron and let The gold slide. A say
ing which everybody instantly per-
ceives to be true is interesting only to
commonplace minds.
What the old thinkers did not see is
the now visible probability that IAN
iron room, the eqIivalen' of the old
Gold Room of the civil war days, will
shortly be opened in connection with
the New York Stock Exchange, where
Iron" in it's various states will be
daily bought, sold, and quoted precise
ly like stocks, cotton, wheat and oil.
From our Unconditional contempor-
ary-The Iron Age---we quote a para
graph which reads like an unconscious
prophecy of the days when iron stocks
and futures, puts and calls, will be IA
miliar features of the days business
in Wall street:
The excitement in the iron market
is growing and is spreading. A very
large tonnage of pig iron is being
placed for 1900 delivery, at advancing
prices. The bulk of the sales are for
the first six months, but a number of
important orders have been placed for
delivery far into the second half of
1900 the Southern furnaces leading
in these transactions. Evidence is ac-
cumulating that very large tonnage
! of untitled orders will be carried over
into next year, not alone in steel rails,
but also in structural material, plates,
and other forms of finished iron and
steel. In other words, the impetus of
the current enormous demand will
surely carry us over the usually slack
winter period"
Iron, by reason of its rapid and
| large advance in price during the past
six months has awakened speculative
interest already. Its probable future
price enteres into the calculations of
every buyer and seller of Stock Ex-
change securities. The purchases for
| future delivery which The Iron Age
announces however, are dou tless
business transactions. A contractor
who knows that he is going to need a
thousand tons of structural steel in
1900 might think it prudent to place
his orders now; just as financier
would lay up time money against the
probability of high rates on due day.
.-ut the next step is the buying of iron
on speculative account for future de-
livery or the selling thereof with like
intent to take advantage of next
months or next years market. All
the other steps will follow in their due
succession until a gentleman anywhere
in New York, just arisen and pajam-
aed, may telephone his broker any
kind of order about iron, just as he
does now or may about Sugar "TO-
bacco," "Whiskey or Gas. New

THE streets are tolerable clean since

this matter out TO one man who will

cleaning them less often and at a
more expensive rate. If the town
will not buy a street sweeper then let's
let some one buy it who will and give
him the contract for keeping every
thing clean.

be over within week.
THE high wind that was promised
us by the forecast on Tuesday came
at night and some Of it was felt on
Tuesday but it was not as strong as
expected. Occasionally at this season
of the year there are wind storms that
are very destructive of property
That the storm this time was gentle
is a matter Of congratulation.

A GREAT deal of petty thieving
has been going on around town and
in the country. People are losing
lots of their chickens and turkeys.
The thieves are said to pick the

the merchants in town. Some very
bold robberies in this line are re-
ported. 1t would be well to sleep
with the shot gun close at hand and
pepper the first scoundrel that comes
after chickens.
THE Indian show last night drew
a fairly large audience and they lik-
