Iron and Steel.

Since 1900 the number of iron and
steel establishments has decreased
from 669 to sos. At the same time
capital increased from $3.50, $40, 4s4
to $94S,6s9, $40; the average num-
Der of wage-earners, from 222, 607
to 242,74O; wages, from $3.50, $780,
33S to $141. ,9O6; the cost of
materials used, from 1922. 431, 701
10 $620,171,881; and the value of
products from $SO4,O34,918 to
1905, S54,152.. The tonnage produc-
ed in 1905 was 34,844,933, an in
crease of 1871 per cent. since 1900.
Each of the geographic divisions
shows a gain, whether measured by
investment of capital, by wage-earn-
ers employed, or by tonnage or value
of products. The New England
states reported 2S1,s0s tons of pro
ducts and $1S,65,45O value; the
Middle states, 19,1S9,532 tons of
products and s526,355|72 value;
the Southern states. 3,925,7S4 tons
of products and ST. ,O2s,747 value;
and the Western states, HAAS sos
tons of products and $2S9,5O4,1SS
value. At each census since 1880
the Middle states or division has
ranked first; the Western, second;
the Southern, third; ;and the New
England, fourth, with respect to pro-
ducts, whether measured by value
of uqantity, in the industry as
whole and in each of the branches.
In the case of each group of states
the rate of increase is greatest in the
steel works and rolling mill branch
of the industry Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Illinois, with value of pro-
ducts at $471, 22S,s44, S162,s59,124
and $S7,352,761, respectively, were
the leading states In 1906 as we'll as
in 1900 and 1890. These three
states combined had 69.s per cent
of the total capital and 1875 per
cent of the total value of products.
In the quantity of classified pro-
ducts also the same states rank the
highest.
The electric furnace does not fig
ure in the census of 1905 as a pro-
ducing agent in the iron and steel
industry. except in the manufacture
of certain of the ferroalloys-ferro-
