Toronto, Feb. 81, l904.-American
iron and steel products are still be-
ing offered on this side of the line at
prices which cause dismay among Ca
madam manufacturers of like goods
A notable example is the cut in steel
bars These are quoted for the Ca
madam trade at Pittsburg Sc ton be-

States Nor is this the only induce
ment Besides the concession offered
b- the manufacturers of TIE bars there
is the additional advantage of low

wishing to place aa order for steel
bars. has. let us suppose. a bid from

one from Il Pittshurg steel mill. The

The Pennsylvania Steel company is
one Of the f1ye or SIX members Of the
steel rail pool. which has held the price
of steel rails in this country firmly at
$2S ton for three years This trust is
protected cy a duty OF S1Sf a ton on
foreign RATS This duty added to its
Montreal price shows that the trust
lacks just 81 cents a ton of getting the
full benefit Of the tariff in this country
This is cutting pretty close to the tariff
line. 1t Is not unlikely that the trust
is cutting entirely up to the tariff line
on sales in other parts of Canada or OF
the world
The tariff is great blessing to some
people, but not to those on the outside
