BIG YEAR In IRON.
All Branches Of the Business start
or With q Whoop.

New York. Jan. 24.-The Iron age to-
day gays Of conditions In the iron trade
The principal event Of the week has
been the closing OF contracts for the
the Carnegie Steel company. at $1x so,
to which further lot Of $4,000 tons win
probably be added. Another large COM
pany has purchased $4,000 tons. but
burg interests have taken from 10000
to 10000 tons more. The deliveries run
over the first half Of the year.
1T is understood that In every cass
the iron is needed TO cover deficiency in
tho mark Of their own furnace plants.
Aside from the fact that these purchases
indicate how heavy the steel works are
melting metal. they clear the situation
in a branch in which there was most
nervousness.
whether there VIII be any labor
trouble in the valleys, as threatened. is
doubtful. The impression prevails that
work viii go on quietly at the reduction
offered by the furnace companies. So
Tar as foundry irons are concerned, the
market has shown further signs Of
weakness notably in the western dis
tributing centers. the volume Of bust
ness being fair.
1.-THE steel rail makers decided not to
make the proposed advance last week.
A good tonnage was booked, prominent
among the orders being that Of the Bal
timore a. Ohio railroad for $4,000 tons,
distributed to a number Of different
mills
Chicago reports an export sale of 10000
tons OF steel rails and there have been
representatives in New York Of some
large inquiries from Russia which, how
ever, has been impossible to trace to any
reliable source. The billet markers
have not advanced prices but intima-
tions are thrown out that there may be
an advance of 81 per ton later on.
Tt is reported that the tonnage being
booked is increasing
In the plate trade the announcement
ton to make prompt and early delivery
The majority of mills are months be-
hind. The placing of four very large
boats with a Delaware ship yard holds
out the promise Of further large ton
mage.
Among the large structural contracts
placed is one of about 5000 tons for q
bridge at Pittsburg. a number or
smaller orders have also been taken.
Everything points to very large con-
sumption by the building trade thisyear.
The amount of municipal work, too, is
likely to be large. The opinion Is ex-
pressed in cast iron pipe trade that this
will be the better year for production.
The leading interest in the wire in
dustry reports that the volume Of bust
ness is very large and that all the plants
are running full.
So far as the exports Of iron and steel
are concerned, the reports OF a number
Of the large producers indicate that a
heavy falling off must be looked for
ward to. The unsettled field condition
in Great Britain has cut off a large
even for export have almost disappeared.
The letters OF leading foreign producers
received recently here are very blue as
to the outlook.

The literary and musical entertain

the very worst boys, with capable care
can be placed on 2 high plane OF USE
At the train the visitors were met BY
the Reform school band and escorted
to the institution Here the crowd was
swelled TO 175 by the neighbors and PEG

WANT new TIMBER.
More Available Candidate For
Mayor is Wanted.

The question al to whom the law and
order people shall support for the Office
OF mayor is still in doubt. The com
mittee which met at the Y. ". c. a
rooms last evening postponed the selec-
ton Of a candidate until next Wednes-
day night The motion to that effect
was made by J. w. Gleed and was sup
ported by nearly all the members.
This action resulted largely from the
influence OF the Woman's League rep
reservations who all along have advoca-
ted that plenty or time should be taken
in the selection Of a candidate. On the
other hand. those favoring the cand;-
dacy Of J. w. +. Hughes have desired
that the matter BE- settled at once. The
action at last nights meeting may,
therefore, be taken as anti-HuEhes.
There seems to be a strong sentiment
for soma one else besides either Mr..
Hughes or Mr.. Nettels. The sickness of
the latteri has served to prevent his
candidacy being pushed as it would
have been otherwise. No names are
mentioned however in connection with
the dark horse talk
nj. T. Campbell, president and w. C
Ralston. secretary were the officers for
last nights meeting, There were only

nittee present, d. J. Hathaway and DR..

AT FIRST GLANCE.
II Would Appear That Local Remedies
Would be Best for Cure Of catarrh.

It would seem at first glance that
catarTh being a disease of the mucous
membrane that salves, sprays, etc. be-
ing applied directly to the membranes
of the nose and throat, would be the
most rational treatment, but this has
been proven not to be true.
The mucous membrane is made and
repaired from the blood and catarrh
is a blood disease and any remedy to
make 9. permanent cure must act on
the blood, and when the blood is puri-
fed from catarrhal poison the secretions
from the mucous membrane will be-
come natural and healthy.
In this climate, thousands Of people
seem scarcely ever free from some form
OF catarrh; it gets better at times, but
each winter becomes gradually deeper
seated and after a time the sufferer re-
signs himself to it as necessary evil
Catarrh cures are almost as numerous
as catarrh sufferers. but are nearly all
so fnconyenient and ineffective as to
render their use a nuisance nearly as
annoying as eatarrh itself ANYONE who
has used douches, sprays and powders
viii bear witness to their inconvenience
and failure to really cure.
There are a number Of excellent in
ternal remedies for catarrh, but prob
ably the best and certainly the safest is
a new remedy, composed Of Eucalyptol
Hydrastis, SanguInaria and other val
liable catarrh specifics
This remedy is in tablet form pleas
ant to the taste and sold by druggists
under the name OF Staurt's Catarrh
Tablets and anyone suffering from
catarrh may use these tablets with abb
solute assurance that they contain no
cocaine, opiate nor any poisonous min
eraI whatever.
a leading druggist in Albany speak
ing of catarrh cures says: 7 have sold
various catarrh cures for years, but have
never sold any which gave such general
satisfaction as Staurts Catarrh Tab
let's They contain IN q pleasant. con-
centrated form all the best and latest
catarrh remedies, and catarrh sufferers
who have used douches, sprays and
saIves have been astonished at the quick
relief and permanent results obtained
after a weeks use Of Stuartss Catarrh
Tablets" All druggists sell 1Hll-sized
packages for 80 cents.
