November 5.-The legislature
session today adopted by
vote of both house a measure
ided BY Governor Frear, sub
,n,.,-s to congress a number of pro-
posed amendments to the organic act OF
Hawaii The amendments relate chiefly
to changes in the present land laws.

clude aliens from the privilege of home
stealing, and to create special COM

funds for the aid of demonstrating en-
ferprises

DULLNESS IN IRON TRADE WIDESPREAD Furnaces Adhere to Quotations
 But Tendency Weak PLANTS ARE STARTING UP Chicago Mills Report Encouraging ln- crease In Specifications on Bars.
 Effect of Tariff Agitation
 on Pig Market.
PLANTS ARE STARTING UP

Cleveland, O.. January 27.-(Special.) The Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
 Specification on some finished mate rial contracts, especially steel rails and bars, have increased, giving more ac- tivity to the mills, but for the most part the market is very dull.
 Reports of concessions on plates, sheet and structural material are more frequently heard. The Carnegie Steel company has started the first of its 12 new open hearth furnaces at the Ohio works, Youngstown, and will now be able to roll open hearth rails. The Illl- nois Steel company will start its No. l mill at South Chicago in few days, after a years idleness. The rail mill at Gary, in which trial run was recently made, will begin roll ing next month.
 The pig iron market is dull in all parts of the country, and while fur naces are as a rule adhering pretty well to quotations which have pre- vailed for some time, middle men are selling at lower prices. Some foun- dries are requesting that shipments be deferred, and on the whole the out look is not encourag ging. Competition in structural material is very keen, and concessions on prices are being more freely met. The principal new rail bus mess booked for the week was 5000 tons at Chicago and a like tonnage at Cleveland.
 The mills in the Chicago district re- port very encoura ging increase in specifications on bars. In plates and sheets conditions are not very satis factory and lower prices are common.
 The production of coke continues to i exceed the demand, and some very low prices are being made for prompt de- | livery.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-01-28

ished iron and steel which is regarded, however, as a potent drag.
 Aside from a lot of 5000 tons for the Nickel Plate, no sales of rails of con sequence have been made. The 10000 tons for the New York Central have not yet been allotted and the 10000 to 60,000 tons required for the Baltimore and Ohio are not booked. An inter- esting transaction has been concluded by the New Haven road, which will have 5000 tons of old 100-pound steel rails re-rolled by the plant of the McKenna Process company at Trem- ley Point, N. J.
 The pig iron markets are quiet throughout the whole country with tendency to weaken. Some smaller fur naces are offering metal at concessions varying from 25c to soc per ton.
 The old material markets have weak ened further
 The lighter lines are quiet.

Iron Aoe's Review.

New York. January 27.-The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
 The iron and steel trade is dull. and while it is recognized that January is usually a quiet month, there is keen disappointment at the manner in which new business has fattened out. Pend ing tariff revision usually is assigned as the principal cause. It Is the un- certainty in regard to prices for fin

company have. 50 per cent of it's sheet capacity, and 67 per cent of it's tin plate capacity in operation.
 large number of independent coke producers in the Connellsville district have been trying to get together to maintain the price of furnace coke at a minimum of $1.75 at the oven for standard coke
 The deadlock in copper continues and sales are light. Whether the pres ent nominal prices, IA A c for lake and 13%c for electrolytic, will stand the test of a serious trial of the market seems doubtful
