ANOTHER EFFORT
 TOWARD REVIVAL Of the Iron and Steel Market to
 Be Made. PLAN IS NOT YET DlVULGED Letters Have Been Sent Out Calling Another Meeting in New York
 Some Say Suspend
 Operations

Pittsburg, Pa., July 31-Another effort to revive the iron and steel market is to be made by the leading steel interests and the Bessemer Furnace Assoication. Since the failure to reach an agreement at the conference in Chicago last week repre- sentatives of several concerns have been in consultations and it has been decided to call another meeting to be held in New York next week. What plan to hold the market is now proposed has not been di- vulged, but it is likely that it will be sub- mitted by mail to the iron and steel men within the present week It is reported that a propoistion will be submitted to the steel companies for a proportionate reduction in the output of pig iron as compared with the capacity of the furnaces owned by the different concerns and that each curtail the production from 15 to 3 per cent, as the gathering may decide It is the senti- ment of most iron men now that the only way to hold the market and then prevent the continued accumulation of over-produc- tion is to suspend operations.
