.MESABA ORE PRICES
An Advance is Advocated and May
Be Made.
THREAT OF MORE LABOR TROUBLE
Bessemer and Basic Iron Scarce-The
Metal Trade I'm an Unset
tied State.

New York, Jan. 9.--The Iron Age In tts
current issue will say:
Hardly have the first signs appeared that
there may be an Improvement in the supply
Of coke, when the news comes Of possible
labor trouble IN the Wallston coal district.
which would seriously embarrass q number
of blast furnaces. the majority OF which run
on foundry iron. So far as the Connellsville
and West Virginia districts are concerned.
there seems to be a probability that ship
ments soon will become better. AS yet the
prices of ore have not been settled. It seems,
however, that an advance ranging from 8
to 10 percent on certain Mesaba ores Is ur-
gently advocated and may be accepted. The
buying Of foundry pig continues on q good
scale and Is widely distributed. The price
of southern iron, which has been held at
$12 for No. 2 Birmingham by the majority
of the sellers, is now established for all Of
them In the Chicago district the makers
Of malleable iron castings and other founders
have been turning to charcoal to relieve the
scarcity Of coke iron, and as result Of the
sale made. the price Of charcoal iron has ad-
vanced.
The scarcity OF Bessenier and basic iron
In the central west continues. Further pur-
chases Of basic have been made outside OF
that territory for delivery here. Some little
business has been done in imported Besse-
mer pig An interesting transaction is the
sale OF Z4,UUO tons OF SpleSeleln at ABOUT pa,
duty paid Little is doing in the steel market.
We hear Of occasional small lots Of billets,
but the movement does not possess signif-
canoe. Domestic wire rods are hrmer, owing
to scarcity. In the wire trade there Is q
growing probability that the outside makers
Of wire nails will get together and put an
end to the cutting of prices which has been
going on for some time. In other branches
Of the industry the new mills are becoming
more aggressive. Indications of this are ap-
pearing in the sheet and pipe trades.
The outlook for structural iron continues
excellent. Large requirements are constantly
making their appearance in all parts OF the
country The makers of bars. notably In the
west are crowded with Inquiries and are SELL
ing freely. There has been, moreover, less
trouble about securing prompt delivery. Re-
ports are current that the Mexican rail or
ders have been taken by German makers. It
rs likely, however, that at least part OF
them will be secured by American and Eng
lish producers.
The metal trade is generally in an unset
| tied state. The official copper prices are
being cut by outside producers and the trade
seems still convinced that the last Of the
cuts have not yet come. Tin has had a fur
| Their drop and is not particularly Arm.
