 MARKET LETTER
NO EVIDENCE OF WEAKNESS IN THE IRON MARKET FOR THE FAST WEEK-cokE MARKET IS EASIER.

Rogers, Brown & Co.'S Cincinnati mar ket report for the past week says:
 Aside from a considerable increase in in quiries, there have been no ne wdeYelop- ments of strength, nor have there been any new evidences of weakness in the iron market during the past week. Gen orally, the waiting attitude of buyers and sellers continues. and with 1t the attendent market dullness. In both east and west there has been distinct improvement in the matter of inquiries, and a fair per- centage of sales resulting confirms the views recently expressed as to early ac- tivity. The inquiries have been for vary ing quantities, small individually by mak- ing a total of about 5O,OO0 tons. This has practically all been for prompt or early delivery.
 Production, which has been put to the utmost for five month, should begin to drop off. F urnaces which have been run ming for some time will have to be re- paired and the physical strain will have it's effect by stacks going out of blast. There has been an unusually high percen- tage of total stacks in operation, which has already begun to decrease. It will daily become more necessary to reduce the strain or stop operation, both of which will reduce production. This will add strength to the situation, as consumption has not been far behind up to the present time and all trade reports and indications promise a continuance of consumption on the present plane at least Now it appears that reports of depression in the trade have been exaggerated. Producers who are pressing seriously for business are in the minority.
 Coke is easier but operations have been seriously hampered on account of violent storms and shipments are not moving as freely as they were last week.
