If you went to Pittsburg and talked
to some of the real iron men-not the
SPECTATORS in the stock market-you
would get some idea of how scarce iron
is. You simply cannot get spot iron.
Predictions of the importation of for
eign foundry iron have been realized,
and in addition to five thousand tons of
No. MiddIesborough which has just
arrived, five cargoes are on the water.
These importations are the natural re-
suit of the high spot prices, which have
reached SIS to s19, Birmingham, for i'm
mediate delivery, against $13 last June,
and corresponding increases in the
price of Bessemer. The demand where
the scarcity of raw material is almost
as acute as on this side, will, it is ex-
pected. result in a rise in the European
prices If American buyers continue
their activity, which will quickly put
foreign iron to a -rohibitive level, and
thus automatically check the export
movement Fol this reason American
producers do not look for a record
breaking Importation.

was presented at the National Theater
last night by Herbert Kelcey and Enie

The play follows the novel closely. The
first act discloses Molly Randolph and
her aunt. Miss Kedison. in a broken
down automobile. Their chauffeur has
been sent to a neigh5oring village to
secure supplies. and while the ladies are
waiting his return they are attacked by
family of peasants. who demand an

been killed. John Winston. an English
nobleman who is also touring France In

Edward Harrigan in His Own Play,
"Old Lavender"


Edward Harrigan, dramatist, was a
great success in the title role of bis
own play. "Old Lavender" which is tne
Offering at the Majestic Theater this
week. The popularity of the play and
the player was demonstrated by the
presence of large audiences at the mat
inee and night performances yester-
day.
The play is clean. wholesome, and
elevating and gives the author-actor
excellent opportunity to depict with
much forcefulness a type Of character
of which much Is heard but
which is seldom seen in real life.
The plot is simple; developed. IL is the
story of a man who slave to drink
and though steeped in poverty never
loses self-respect or succumbs to the
temptation TO be dishonest.
Old Lavender is the outcast brother
Of Philip CogsweII. a New York bank
