IRON TRADE SHOWS
 VERY STRONG TONE
FURTHER ADVANCE IN NORTH ERN PIG HAS TAKEN PLACE DURING THE PAST WEEK-BEs. sEMER IRON ADVANCES.

Cleveian, O., December Actual de- velopments from week to week as well as the well founded expectation that 1905 is to be year of large consumption of iron and steel in the United tsates, says the Iron Trade Review. give very strong tone to the market In the past week | furthers advance in northern pig iron has taken place and bar Iron is from S4 to g higher while old material has advanced in all markets.
 A largo machinery interest in the Pitts burg districu has bought 12.ooO tons of pig iron at an advance over last weeks price and central western pipe works price and Central Western Pipe works have taken 10000 to 25.0Oo tons. some of this iroa being on the basis of s15 at fur mace fJr northern No. B. Northern fur- naces have all put up prices in the week and at tl6 now asked for No ? at central western furnaces. are in some markets on a party with SIS No. 2 Birmingham. Southern sellers who held for s1350 are thus 5 cents above the northern price in many localities, but are nevertheless holding firm and intimating that their price will be s14 in the near future
 Besssmer iron has advanced to S15S and sl55O at central western furnaces. Coke prices continue to advance and a factor in the Connellsville market Is long time contract for Lackawanna steel company indicating that no large de- pendenee will be put on it's own mines and ovens for many months.
 A steel bar meeting will occur early in December and an advance of g ton is a practical certainty. Plates and shapes will come up for consideration before the middle O. December and an advance of $2 to S4 will be made in both.
 Bar iron advanced g a ton further and sf55 iPtisburg is now the price of the leading producer. High scrap made the position of iron rolling mills far from comfortable at the old price for their product.
 Among the advances expected which may @ effective by the time this re- view Is read is one of $2 to s4 on wire goods and s2 a ton on wire nails. Another advance in merchant pipe is also looked fos.

WILL TEST THE MATTER.
Decision as to Validity of Court Will Be Sought.

Huntsville, December 1.-tSpecial.)- Judge D. ". Speake of the circuit court has decided that the acts of Judge Paul Speake. while holding the court of the Sixteenth circuit during the regular terms are legal, just as the acts of any super numerary judge would have been. On the other hand, the court holds that his acts during special terms of the outlawed Sixteenth circuit are null and void
 This matter will no doubt be taken be- fore the supreme court for decision In the case of HaisIey vs. Grayson, in which the defendant has entered a motion to dismiss on the grounds that no legal trial of the case has been had. despite the fact that a verdict was rendered for the piintif in Judge Paul Speake's court and an ap- peal taken by the defendant.

 lures should be conseryatively made, yet they should be adequate to the needs of an expanding commerce
 While the tariff question Is an old one, 1t is of continual and vital inter- est. Ii must not be overthrown or sur rendered, either by ignorance or preJu- dice; it must be maintained by educa- tloni by intelligent discussion. The tariff issue was sharply presented in the plat forms of the republican and democratic parties n the recent campaign The re- publican party stood squarely by its pro tective policy. while the democratic party drnounced protection as a rob bery.' The republican party insisted that rates ,f duty should be readjusted only when ctsiditions have changed that the public rtsrest demands their alteration;' while tue democratic party favored re- vision and a gradual reduction of the tarlf.' Republican alterations are to be made ssien necessary along protective lines. while democratic revision means the elimination of the protective prin- ciple.
 Necessary Alterations to Be Made.
 The l.publican party has revised tar if schedules in the past when revision was essertial, and 1t will not be silent in the future to subject them to careful scrutiny and alteration so that our pros pective system may be just in its opera tion. Whenever change of schedules is essential to the public interests, the al- iteration will be made; it will be made advisedly. 1t will be made with full knowledge, not in response to mere sem timent. hut agreeably to sound economy necessity Any other policy, Is obviously unwise md disturbing fin it's tendency.
 The republican party adheres to the doctrine of commercial reciprocity, that recipfoety which tends to expand our commerce, and to develop American in- dustry in the interest of American la bor and American capital It holds to that reciprocity which Is the hand maid en of protection. but not to that which is but another form of free trade. and which Is hostile to the protective sys- tenn.
 President Mckinley has been quoted by enemies of protection as favor1ng the democratic system of reciprocity. The text of his last great speech gives denial to such pretensions. His utterances were entirely free from ambiguity. No one could misunderstand them who did not desire to do so. He distinctly favored
