FURNACES FIND IT EASY
 TO SELL PIG IRON AT SIG

to special conditions surrounding each transaction.
 New York-Iron market conditions show practically no change The feature of short supply. excess demand. practical wiping out of stocks in first hands, long forward reach of current business, steady but restricted importations, slightly im- proved car supply. etc, continue. Prices do not advance further mostly because of the settled purpose of all interests to keep them steady.
 It is inevitable that conditions like the present should lead to large expansions of plant. We have referred to blast furnace projects that have been taking shape since the beginning of the year. A review of these that may be regarded as now full ly settled warrants the statement that within three months. fifteen new fur naces will be in process of construction that will add, when completed, at least five thousand tons daily to the pig iron product of the country Seven of these are to be built by well known existing companies, and eight by new companies, capital for which is provided without public financing. All but two of these fur naces will be built In the North, and draw their supplies from Lake Superior ores and Pennsylvania or West Virginia coke IL VIII require dD average OI u year ana half to complete the furnaces, which are all of large capacity and most modern design It is fair to assume, therefore. that the builders do not look to the pres ent conditions, but to the future settled history of the iron trade of the country for their returns.
 Adding to this new capacity the con stant improvement of existing plants by addition of blowing and heating power, 1t is safe to say that we have already production well in sight of at least q 000,- 900 tons a year. It Is quite probable therefore, that consumers who can see their way through the next twelve or eighteen months will not have occasion to suffer again from scarcity of raw mate rials. It is quite likely that reports of current prosperity will invite promotion schemes for still further expansion of plant. In that event, the condition of survival of the Attest will the sooner re- turn.
 The New York Commercial of Saturday says: It Is said that very little pig iron is being sold for 1903 delivery. One pro- ducer today said that consumers appeared satisfied that blast furnacemen would not allow prices to get beyond reasonable bounds, and consequently were not in a hurry to place any business extending into next year.

 After dreaming of errors and lost games until eyes were red with hidden tears, Manager Haller and the other Coal ! Barons arose from their beds yesterday morning, regretful of the past days l work but more than ever determined to win from the Chattanooga aggregation today-and also tomorrow. Yesterday was spent in various ways l by the members of the two teams. Near 1 ly all the Chattanooga men lounged about the Florence Hotel and visited the parks while the Hallerites confined them selves to gossiping around the Metropoli- tan and work at the park. Long before o'clock one or two members of the team, who are yet not in thorough con- dition speeded themselves to West End and indulged in a workout before time for church.
 In talking of the work Saturday, Man planation of the errors, that the men were possibly over-anxious. Such nerv- ousness is sometimes due to not being in condition In such cases he orders his men to work harder.
 Discussing Smiths Work.
 The work of Smith in the box was the cause of much discussion yesterday. Ev- erybody was pleased with the wonderful speed the man from North Carolina ex- hibited More so were the fans pleased with his batting. Yet almost every fan felt that his giving down Saturday was due in part to this same hitting ability which caused him to have to run bases so speedily Added to the misplays, 1t seems nothing else will explain the change which came over him in the sev- enth and eighth. Up to that time the 1 visitors had been unable to do anything with him.
 It is possible that Billie" Smith the | new center fielder, will be in the game this afternoon He arrived in the city yesterday and joined the other members of the team He will go out for practice this morning and if he displays proper condition he will get in the game. It is believed he will strengthen the team won derfully.
 The two teams will go out this after noon, both filled with a determination to bring the others scalp back into camp. Manager Kreig will present the same line up as of Saturday with the single eXcep- ton of pitcher. In the box he will place Hopkins or Bruner. with the probabilities strongly in favor of the former. He is a left handler and halls from New Bed ford. Va. He is said to be the fastest man on the team with the possible ex- ception of Jack Dolan Many believe him even better than Dolan. Birming- ham has not faced a strong left-hand pitcher yet. Still the boys hit so well Saturday that little fear of the result Is felt

The only new feature in the local iron market last week was hardening of prices for quick delivery. Shipments con tinue brisk and there is very little iron on the yards The large companies still quote a SIP bases but other concerns re- port that they find it easy to sell round as well as small lots for s16.
 Extracts from Rogers, Brown & Co.'S circular follow:
 Cincinnati-The transactions in pig iron have been about on the level of the pre- ceding two weeks The demand is in ex- cess of supply and prices have been ad- vanced fifty cents per ton by number of furnaces, both North and South. The railroad companies are doing good work in the way of quick transportation and | the only embarrassment now is the in- adequacy of the Iron supply. Pittsburg-The present shortage of iron due on existing contracts is causing con- siderable trouble and no relief seems in sight before midsummer But few sellers of iron seem to take the slightest advant- age of the present situation and prices rule about where they belong. Ordinarily two or three ship loads of foreign metal coming into this port might make a change in the price of local brands but local furnaces seem pleased that their customers are able to seek temporary relief by applying to their neighbors across the water.
 Chicago-The history of the market for the past week. If reported in detail, would simply be a repetition of the conditions prevailing for some weeks back, Buyers are too busy filling their orders to keep very close watch on prices of pig iron Nearly everyone seems to have made sufficient purchases to supply their needs for the next three four months any way, and probably feel that since prices have reached their present high range they cannot go very much higher. and they prefer to take their chances on the possibility of a reaction. The wisdom of this course is not so apparent as to compel consideration General anxiety prevails in connection with delivery of material already purchased, and while with an exception here and there manu- facturers are receiving sufficient to keep them going, it is exceptional to find any stock accumulated.
 Prices are about the same, with varying figures for spot delivery iron according
