Matthew Addy & Co.'s Cincinnati report for the current week says
 After the very large purchases of last month it is something of surprise to find that buying is continuing at a fair rate. The July sales by the southern furnaces were probably greater than was at first supposed At least B, ,00O tons were taken by two interests alone. The result of this free selling Is that southern iron is much firmer and prices have been ad- vanced from 50 cents to a dollar a ton. and in the second place the quantity of southern iron remaining free to sell has been much reduced. In fact, there are several furnaces that temporarily are out of the market. The July sales were made near the bottom of the market Prices were so attractive that buyers realized it would be difficult to 20 astrav in purchasing. As yet there has been no change in northern quotations, but tbe turn of the market is in favor of the f,r naces on this side of Mason and Dixon,s q line and they have been doing consdera be business.
 One noticeable thing is to be mentioned and that is the large reduction in the stocks of southern iron. This tells in a striking way the story of the gradual resumption of activity in the iron trade. Slowly we are getting back to normal conditions. Some branches of trade are running nearly full. others are not doing so well. but all are better than was the case a few months ago.
 Coke is particularly active. The strike of the coal miners in Birmingham has resulted in the blowing in of coke ovens in other parts of tN~ south to supply the Alabama HortsA

The letter deals with every point and Will De oA value to all those connected with the strike. On receiving 1t Governor Comer gave out this statement:
 q requested Judge Samuel D. weak lev to investigate the constitution ana laws of Alabama, and to advise me as to my powers and duties in reference to calling into service state troops to enforce the law and to preserve the neace. and further as to the powers of such troops when employed to aid the civil officers in maintaining the law. The written statement by Judge Weak lev has been furnished me and l pub fish if for the information of all con : cerned.
 Ut will be placed in the hands Of Sheriff Higdon and of the officer com manding the troops and they will be guided thereby. I wish to call atten- tion to the statement published in The Age-Herald few days ago of condi- tions in the district as set forth in tn e able report of Governor Thomas C.. Jones, who directed the state troops during the strike of 1894. The occur rences were most disastrous at that time and hurtful to the district and no good citizen would wish to see them repeated. The state will employ all proper means to prevent them and l shall endeavor to see that the laws are not violated"
