MUCH INTEREST IN
 PIG IRON TRADE More Activity Prevails With
 Decline In Prices ORDERS ARE INCREASING Plate Mills of Illinois Steel Company Will Resume Monday and struc-
 tural Business Shows Con-
 siderabIy More Activity.
ORDERS ARE INCREASING

Cleveland. O., May 6-(Special. 1.-The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say;
 Increased activity in some lines but usually at the exper-9 of prices and an intense interest in the pig iron situa- ton. especially in connection with the general meeting of pig iron manufacturers to be held in New York Thursday, have characterized the market during the past week. Our reports from Great Britain and Germany indicate the conditions Tn those countries are gradually getting worse, showing that the present oe- pression is common to the three great iron and steel producing nations.
 If is reported that a New York state concern has closed with a customer n the Pittsburg district for 1000 tons Of open hearth billets at about s per ton below the regular price. Pending the decision as to prices to be made at the New York meeting few sales of any consid- erable tonnage are reported. But many inuuiries are pending and some GOOD tons were sold in the Chicago district, h- cluding 1000 tons of malleable. We note the sale of 1000 tons to a Cleveland foun- dry at s14 45 valley. the iron to contain not less than 2.5 per cent silicon, which in ordinary times would be considered No. 1 iron.
 Shading of prices of both steel ana iron bars is reported at Chicago A slight improvement is noted in orders for plates and the plate mills of the Illinois steel company will resume next Monday wlth a prospect of being able to run for some fine Tn structural material considerable imnrovement has developed in the east and expenditures for school buildings and other public structural work in the city of New York will require heavy ton nages. In the Chicago district number of important enterprises are being heid up owing to the expectation Of lower prices of which there seems to be no prospects,.

Iron Aue Review.


 New York, May 6.-The Iron Age VIII say tomorrow:
 The decline in the volume of opera tions at the steel works in April. as com pared with March, is reflected in the pig iron production reports. The total output of the coke and anthracite fur- naces last month was 1,149,OoO tons In So days, compared with 1,I2S,OOO tons Tn March in 31 days. The decline IS que largely to the steel works furnace. m terest centers in the meeting of the pig iron and ore men in this city today. There is little prospect that anything tangible will be done as to prices of pig iron, al though the organization will probably con tinue for statistical purposes and data. The southern iron makers were together on Monday, but one company was not represented The eastern makers are holding a preliminary meeting, some or them being in favor of sufficient re- duction in the price to permit some metal to be marketed.
 good deal hinges on the attitude of the Lake or selling companies, who were together on Friday last. It is understood that the general feeling Is against any concession in the prices. There has been 4 little more activity in pig iron in the central west, buyers showing more inter est as the result of widespread reports of coming sharp reductions. The markets have weakened a little more but there is a. good deal of the resistance which grows out of despair.
 Structural work is coming out slowly, but in fair volume. In other lines con tracts which in other times would not be given out at one letting are coming ont piecemeal which creates the impress sion that there is less large work than the facts warrant

DOCTORS MISTAKES

their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid
ney disease, another from nervous pros
tration, another with pain here and there,
and in this way they present alike to
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to be such, prescribes
his pills and potions. In reality, they are
all only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The Physician, ignorant Of the

The South as q Dump.
Manufacturers, Record.l

Upon a background Of a discussion
Of "peonage"--a very misleading
word, by the way-a writer in the
Boston Transcript says: What can
be done to bring about better un.
derstanding between the laborer and
the South?" She then makes the
beautiful suggestion, recently origi-
mated by Miss Quackenbos after her
"peonage." investigations in the
South. to the effect that the South
ern farmers, manufacturers, railroad
companies, steamship lines, foreign
consuls and Federal officials co-ope-
rate In solving the. Southern labor
problem" The joke of the matter
lies in the fact that the Boston Tran
script writer, like Miss Quackenbos.
and like so many other philanthro-
pists in this direction, seems to think
that the solution Of the Southern la
hor problem turns upon the problem
OF Kidding certain congested commu-
mites Of the East Of an undesirable
population. The South, though, has
begun to apply the moral of the fa-
Bile OF the monkey and the hot chest
nuts. A better understanding be-
tween the laborer and the South will
be brought about by the South's alb
solutely disregarding the suggestions
Of Social settlement" workers in the
East, representatives of foreign
steamship companies anxious to add
to their revenues by relieving for
eign countries OF undesirable popu-
lation, or Of the authorities of such
foreign countries, all looking upon
the South as desirable dump.
