NEXT YEAR WILL BE
BOOMER IN STEEL
Company Believes Improve
ment Coming Soon.

NEW YORK, April 1S.-President
Felton, Of the Pennsylvania Steel
Company says:
ssfS5S...sWhile the general outlook in the
iron and steel trade continues en-
3couraging, as matter of fact the
situation has been quieted during the
last ten days more than it was pre-
svionsly. We expected that orders for
railroad material, which are still with
held, would have been forthcoming
by this time. The best opinion
among steel men, however, is that
the decided improvement in the trade
is likely to come very soon and that
in all proba 1905 will prove an
other boom year
The conservative head Of an impor-
tant railroad says:
system I control needs new
rails and track supplies in greater
chase under present conditions, so
we are simply using new rails where
we are forced to, and postponlns
bridge building and other improve
ments as much as possible. There
are many other roads just as impor-
Ttant as ours that are doing the same
thing Economy in expenditures for
sreIaying, extensions or general i'm
$provements, must be followed until
conditions improve. The stock mar
5kets is directly responsible for the
great falling off in consumption of
iron and steel by the railroads.
