P|G IRON MARKET
 |S ENCOURAGING Improvement of Last Week Aug mented By Heavy Sales TRYING To TEST PRICES
Pittsburg Has Made Big Sales of Foundry Coke While Sales of Structural Material Are Con-
 fined to Chicago District.

Cleveland, O., May Especial )-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
 News concerning the pig iron market from all parts of the country is much more encouraging than at any time since the panic last October. The Improvement noted last week has been followed by sales aggregatlng 10000 tons of basic at the east, 100000 tons at Milwaukee, 5000 tons to Chicago foundry. 40OO tons at Moline, Ill, and many smaller sales. In- quiries have been received in large vol ume and the feeling in the trade is dis tinctly better. F@
 A noteworthy feature of the new con dtions is the eagerness of brokers to place orders, many of them evidently coming to the conclusion that bottom prices have been reached. Of course 1t Is impossible to predict whether the i'm provement will continue. Many inquiries have no doubt been sent out to test prices, but the market has for the most part stood the tests very well.
 New life has also come to the coke mar ket. A Pittsburg interest has sold 30,000 tons of foundry coke for Il months de- livery, beginning June l. An inquiry for 30,00O tons of furnace coke from Wis consin company is about to be closed. Sales of structural material have been confined largely to the Chicago district, Sale Hotel tonnage. heretofore mentioned, have been sold within ten days.
 Taken as a whole the finished material market is very quiet, but there Is no ex- pectation that prices will be changed at the New York meeting this week.

IRON AGE REVIEW.
Inquiries for Pig Iron Have Been Nu-
 merous in All Markets.

New York, May 2O.-The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 A good deal of interest has developed in the pig iron market. The inquiries have been numerous in all markets but many of the buyers seem still imbued with the idea that 1t Is not safe to take hold at over S1O or $10.50 for No. foundry at Birmingham. It is a fact, however, that the Sloss- Sheffield Steel company, now the largest maker of merchant iron in the south, has placed a good deal of foun- dry iron estimated as high as 50,000 to 60,- GOO tons on the basis of BIO. 25 for No. 2 Birmingham. Of this over 10000 tons has been traced to various firms in the Chi cago district alone. The company now appears to have withdrawn from the market.
 There has been an active demand in the central west for bar and pig and from 20,- GOO to 25,00O tons have been placed in the Pittsburg. district. There are further in quiries, one of them being for 5000 tons per month for a year.
 Along the Atlantic coast interest has hroadened and some business has been done at further concessions in prices on foundry irons
 The steel trade shows very little change.
 A meeting of the representatives of the steel companies tomorrow is looked fo. ward to with some interest. The feeling is growing that prices of finished iron and steel are out of line with interme- diate products and that more business is being withheld awaiting a re-adjust- ment of prices than is generally assume l.
 Chicago reports quite a number of con- tracts for structural material. The ad- vance in copper is not taken very se- riously here.
 It is attributed to a speculative move ment in London.

MINNESOTA WINS PARTIAL
VICTORY OVER RAILROAD


st. Paul. July 11.-Judge Lewis to.
day filed I'm the district court his de.
cisinn In the case of the state of Min
nesota against the Great Northern
Railway company. In which the state
sought TO compel the company to pay
the 4 per cent gross earnings tax un-
der the state law of 1908.
The railway company had paid the
per cent gross earnings tax but
claimed that 1t was exempt from the
per cent atx under a law and agree
ment with the territorial legislature OF
May 20, 1887. by which II was 20 pay
a per cent tax in lieu of all other
claims of the kind by the state.
The old road OF the territorial days
vas known as the Minn6snta and Pa
cific. Since then the road has built
many lines and acquired others. Judge
Lewis finds that the original lines are
exempt under the charter and agree
ment from paying any greater tax than
3 per cent, but that the other lines
must pay { per cent.
