The idea may prevail that "Old Hickory" is costly. It is no.. In fact it is inexpensive, and, when you consider the style and com fort and durability-it never wears out-it is as cheap as you can buy. There is also distinc- tiveness about "Old Hickory" that breathes of history and TO- nance, of -bellum days.

IRON MARKET WITHOUT
 ANY SPECIAL FEATURE

The Birmingham iron market was with out special feature last week. The de- mand for small lots continues and the scarcity is as marked as ever. Buyers who need iron ore are willing to pay almost any price.
 One concern sold 400 tons of No 2 soft foundry for $1s.50 for August and September delivery. The railroads are supplying iron shippers with cars right along but coal shippers are complaining because they cannot get cars enough to take their output
 Extracts from Rogers, Brown & Co., s circular letter of Saturdays date fol- low:
 Cincinnati-The business of the past week has been remarkably good consid- ering the current conditions. Consider able interest has been manifested in iron for the last quarter of the year, and at the close Of the week the market seems to be firm on the basis of $500 cush Blrm- ingham for Southern No. ? foimdry. A number of the independent furnaces in the South express a willingness to soon consider business for the first three months of 1903 and 1t is supposed that within the next few weeks a large ton mage will be placed
 The scarcity of iron is likely to become almost a famine by reason of the an thracite strike in the East and the strikes in the Pocahontas, New River and Kan awha districts. The furnaces in Southern
 
 within the next few days. It is greatly to be desired that these disastrous strikes be brought to a close as quickly as possi- ble. It will take some time, however. for furnaces that have been banked to get
The Birmingham age-herald., 1902-06-16

back to their usual output. It also re- quires several days for coke ovens to be put into good condition after a stop page, and a perceptible period will elapse after the settlement of the strikes before there is a normal output of coke and pig iron.
 New York-Following the movement in the steel trade, interest in the pig iron market now begins to center in 1903 deliv- cries. The attitude of buyers has until now been indifferent touching next years business. the feeling being that many things may happen in the next seven months and that these are as likely to be in the buyers as in the sellers favor.
 Some of the largest consumers, how ever, begin to feel the need of securing raw materials to cover contracts which they are taking. hence some considerable contracts are finding their way on to fur mace books for January to June deliver ies. It Is significant that all such buying Is volunteered. the furnaces preferring to wait for some months before taking up next years business.
 One thing pig iron makers are assured of, and that is, higher cost all along the line Where the increase in cost of labor and materials will end, cannot now be foreseen. For this reason it is thought best to go slow on future commitments.
 Philadelphia-Owing to irregular supply of fuel many of the blast furnaces in the i.etigh, I.ebnnon and Susquehana valleys have made low grade iron for the past two weeks, so that there has been oonsid- erable gray forge. mottled and white made in excess of all previous calcula- tions and this has teen promptly moved and given to parties who might other wise have been compelled to shut down. Foreign metal from France, Germany and England Is still coming into this country, and not lors after It's arrival it is placed in the eupola of forge.

 NEW CASkET LOWERING DEVICE A SUCCESS.

The new automatic casket lowering de- vice received by the Erswell Go. last week has been operated several times by Mir s. R. Lippincott. the funeral director for the company and he reports that all who saw 1t were very much pleased. that it is success and does much to relieve one of the unpleasant features at the cemetery. MT Lippincott has used low ering device elsewhere for several years, this one, however. Is the first to be suc- cessfully operated in Birmingham. Mr. Lippincott is thoroughly up- p-to-date, an expert embalmer. having had 20 years ex- perience and shipped bodies to all parts of the United States and abroad He will introduce a number of new features which tend to relieve and obviate some of the annoyances of the past.
