THE IRON AND STEEL TRADE
Expert Testimony as to Existing
Conditions.


Conditions.
NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The Iron Age
today says of conditions in the iron
trade:
The feature of the week has been
the heavy buying of pig iron, notably
for steel purposes. Some large sales of
Bessemer pig have been made in the
Valleys and the market has risen
squarely. A leading interest in the
market has purchased heavily of basic
iron. Birmingham, Virginia and eastern
and western Pennsylvania furnaces
have been sellers, the total quantity of
basic pig involved probably being not
far from 60, 900 to 10000 tons. In foun-
dry iron the cast iron pipe foundries
have been buying some round lots east
and west, and there is generally some
what better feeling.
In the wire rod market the burning
of New England mill has created quite
a gap. 1t is understood I'll at the works
had about $4,000 tons o, their books.
The leading wire interest report very
heavy business. During the first IA
days of this month specifications were
received carrying about 10000 tons of
products, as comp pared with about so, 900
tons for the whole of January.
A very large tonnage of structural
material keeps coming up. A leading
bridge concern has taken about 80, 900
tons in one week, including $4,000 tons
for bridges on the New York Central
road
In the Chicago district heavy tran
sactions are reported in iron and steel
bars, and the prices have again hard
ened after their brief spell of easing.
Very little is doing III any branch of
the export trade in the heavy lines of
iron and steel.

THIRTEEN MEN ENToMBED
Miners Penned In Pit Into Which
Water Rushes.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala, Feb. 21.-Thirteen
miners were entombed in the insane
hospital coal mines, two miles from
here, by 10 feet of water, yesterday
afternoon. Eleven others escaped be.
fore the rushing waters could hem them
in. The accident was due to the care
lessness of a miner who was digging
coal close to an abandoned shaft which
had been filled with water some time.
The wall was cut through and the
water poured in on the miners, all of
whom were negroes. There is large
force of hands at work pumping the
water out of the mines, but little pro-
gress is being made, as it fills up almost
as rapidly as it is pumped out
The fate of the entombed miners is
problematical, as it will take from "a to
48 hours to clear the mines. AT present
there appears practically no hope for
them unless there is some way by which
air can reach them.

American Expectation of Horses For
Foreign War Purposes.

Foreign War Purposes.
LONDON. Feb. 2l.-Sir Charles Dixie,
replying TO question as to whether
American permission to England to OBJ
tain supplies of horses for use in South
Africa was breach of neutrality, said,
"It is no breach of neutrality, but Il
Is perfectly competent to any govern
ment to allow horses to be exported
without committing an unfriendly act.
Some countries permit the export of
horses for war urposes-Turkey, for
instance. Others, like Austria Hungary,
have law against it, but where they
are friendly disposed toward either of
the belligerents such countries occa-
sionally wink at breach of this law.
austria Hungary has allowed us to
export horses to South Africa, and
there is no breach of neutrality involved.
1t Is q case of catch me If you can.
There are plenty of precedents for re-
fusing to allow horses TO be exported
for war purposes.
Several English and Welch members
of the house of commons who dtsap-
prove of the governments South Afri-

as unfair to the Beers, would not speak

Il think it miserable thing that the
great American republic should aid this
great monarchlal empire in crushing
these little South African republics by
supplying England with horses. We can
get no horses from France, Russia or
Germany, and there is no doubt that
assistance in the shape of horses given
under the aegis of the Washington
authorities has done irreparable damage
to the cause of Boer independence.
The British government could not COM

LESS THAN WAS EXPECTED
The Private Fortune of the Late
Queen Victoria.

LONDON, Feb. 21.-Since the death of
the queen speculation has been busy
guessing at the amount of the private
fortune her majesty left. The fact that
the royal will is not to go through the
ordinary channel for probate has given
rise to many absurd statements as to
the fabulous amounts bequeathed to
royal relatives. 1t has even been stated
that the reason for concealment was
the fear that the disclosure of sr3h an
enormous saving would reduce the civil
list in the future.
1t can now be stated on absolute re-
liable authority that the gross amount
of her 1najesty's private fortune, in
Guiding investments in real estate, cash
in bank and personal property, outside
of what rightfully belonged to the
crown, will not exceed G600, 900 ($8, ,00O,-
000) The bulk of this consists of CITY
property, in which her majesty had
quietly invested. The remainder stands
in the shade Of the cash balance on her
personal account in Coutts bank.
