The domestic markets for steel aud steel

as raw steel, there Is the same steady going

Increasing Volume OF Pig Iron Demands
Steel Manufacture In Good Request.
From the middle OF the past week until Its
close there was q steady improvement In
demands for pig iron. During Friday and
Saturday the effect of the conditions In the
GOAL trade induced many consumers who had
held back from the market to place orders
for foundry iron. The buying movement
was general, East and West, and for the
most part was heavy. Many buyers are an
ticipatlng a hardening In prices. So far.
sales are made on the prices that have ruled
with the larger producers during the last
fortnight. The local market was particularly
good In the last days Of the last week. Orders
were quite numerous. as reported by the
several selling a~gencies-nVthing like the
sales of a weeks end In boom times, but good.
solid business in fair volume. For this week
antloipatlons Of iron sellers are for consider
able sales at firm prices. This view OF the
market is based upon the large number of
negotiations under consideration for lots
ranging from g, few carloads Ito 5000 tons.
Three local agencies are making prices for
one lot OF 10000 tons OF foundry iron. and
other important acquisitions are nearly ready
for submission to sellers.
Two vexatlous matters out Of the ordinary
annoy the iron trade-the coal strike and the
threatening labor troubles in the ore carrying
trade at the Great Lakes. As to both matters
the more experienced men in the iron and
steel trades look for q short life Of the coal
strike and an early settlement Of the Lake
troubles. Furnace operators who have very
large interests in coal mining Inform THE
SUN that no we'll informed person In the coal
regions believes that the strike will endure
over two months at the outside. As for the
labor troubles at the Great Lakes II Is the old
story OF the usual breaking out Of Fresh
Water Jacks grumblings, in which he is like
his brother. the whacker Of salt water. There's
always a general all around kick" by the
fresh water steamship crews just before the
opening of navigation. Advices from Buffalo.
Cleveland. Detroit and Chicago are that the
disputes will be adjusted within a few days.
and the season of ore carrying will begin in
tremendous volume. The coke trade con-
tinues in large volume. Seventy-two hour
prime coke Is held at 81. 85d 81. 25. Upper
and lower Connellsville are making about
400. 900 tons a week.
