THE IRON MARKET
EASIER FEELING IN PIG IRON MARKET
SAYS IRON TRADE REVIEW

Cleveland, Ohio, April e:-The Iron Trade Re-
pears in the pig iron market Purchases Of
$4,000 tons OF Bessemer iron for April delivery
by the Steel corporation were made at $3.50
valley furnaces for the bulk of it., and $15.4O
at furnace for the balance, the Bessemer ASSOC
citation yielding FROM the stand taken one week
ago for SIG at furnace. These transactions
show the purpose of the largest interest to
hold prices in check and prevent repetition
of the unhealthy boom features of 1902. They
prevail in finished ma erial markets. tho 1t is
to be said that steel billets today slightly
iron can be had at $3.50 heretofore.

LUCKY MISTAKE
Grocer Sent Pkg. of Postum and Open
ed the Eyes of the Family.

A lady writes from Brookline. Mass. ::
IA package of Postum Coffee was sent
me, one day by mistake.
ST notified the grocer, but finding that
there was no coffee (the old kind) for
breakfast next morning, 1 prepared
some Postum. following the directions
very carefully.
sIt was an immediate success in my
family, and from that day We have used
it constantly, parents and children too
for my three rosy youngsters are allow
ed, to drink it freely at breakfast and
luncheon. They think it delicious, and
1 would have mutiny on my hands
should L omit the beloved beverage. My
husband used to have a very delicate
stomach while we were using coffee but
to our surprise his stomach has grown
strong and entirely well since we quit
coffee and have been on Postum.
Noting the good effects in my fam
ily / wrote to my sister, who was a
coffee topper, and after much persuasion
got her to try Postum. She was preJu-
diced. against it as first, but when she
presently found that all the ailments
that coffee gave her, left and she got
we'll quickly she became and remains a
thorough and enthusiastic Postum con-
vert, Her nerves, which had become
shattered by the use of coffee have
grown healthy again, and today she is
a new woman. thanks to Postum =
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich, and the "cause why" will
be found in the great little book 1.-THE
Road to WeIlville," which comes IN
each pkg.

Roads Entering Chicago Refuse to
Deal With Union Committees.
Chicago, Sept. 13.-Demands of freight
handlers union for an increase of 10
per cent in wages or an arbitration of
their demands and the demand xor a
conference were refused yesterday. The
general managers of the % railroads
centering in Chicago notified President
F'lannery of the union, that negotiations
were ended.
The news of the refusal of the gen
eral managers to grant the increase in
wages and the declination to hold a
conference was received angrily by the
men They Immediately arranged to
call a series of mass meetings to con-
slider the action of the roads.
At the meeting of the railway officials
there was little discussion as to what
the action of the railroads should be. The
meeting lasted only few moments,
and before adjournment the officials of
the railroads had pledged themselves not
to deal individually with any commit
tee of the freight handlers. 1t develop

ed after the meeting that the general
freight agents had communicated with
the freight handlers as individual en-
ployes and informed each of them that
the railroads were paying the highest
wages it was possible to pay. Not
withstanding feeling of confidence said
to have resulted after individual inter
views with employees that there will be
no strike, the railroad companies are
going ahead with preparations for one.
The preparations are precautionary. Cots
are being hauled to the freight houses,
and hundreds of men have been tenta-
lively hired to take the places of the
union men should they vote to strike.
Chief of Police Collins has been COM
municated with and he will furnish po-
lice protection to the freight houses.
The agreement which expired last
June and which the union is seeking to
reestablish with 10 per cent increase is
the one adopted as the basis of settle
ment of the big strike conducted by
former President Curran of the freight
handlers union.
