IRON MARKET DULL
BIRMINGHAM DISTRICT REPORTS
 BUT FEW SALES.
Quotations For Pig Iron Are Weak and the Prices Are Not COnduc- tive To Bringing About
 Much Business.

Birming ham, Feb. 2s.-(Special)-- There are some who believe that there will be change for the better In the very near future while many others do not look for any material change for some time. not until the special ses- sion of Congress has met and has defi- nitely decided to do what 1t intends to in regards to the tariff.
 The Southern pig iron market is very dull. There are but few sales being made and what are being reported are of such small proportion that they are not to be given any great considers ton. The quotations for pig iron are
 weak. $12.5O for No. ? foundry iron. being given as the price. There are rumors that some concessions are be- ing made on this quotation but no ad- mission is to be heard. The price. any way. is not conducive to bringing about any Business.
 The production in this State still holds up. When the of1cial figures for the month are given out, it will be shown that the make in February equalled almost those of January, when tho months record for quite a while was broken. There Is but little, If any accumulation of pig iron to be noticed on furnace yards, which shows that
 there is a steady movement of the pro- duct on old orders. The new busi- ness that is coming in Is of such insig | nificance that 1t is hardly considered. The cast iron pipe makers are still the friends of the pig iron manufacturers
 in tho Birmingham district and in the | south. The pipe people have plenty | of orders in hand and others in sight
 and the melt is as big as 1t ever was. | The product continues to move out | In all directions, too. The United States
 Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry, has just
 moved another train load of pipe on
 the Cuba order. and there Is a consid-
 erable proportion of the business yet | to be filled.
 The foundries and machine shops in
 the Southern territory appear to have
 some little business on hand but not
 to any great extent.
 Iron and steel men in the South are watching with interest the war be- | tween the steel corporation and the in dependents and are hoping that some good will follow fin this direction. Ex- actly how this can come about cannot
 be stated though in some circles 1t is
 believed that there will be an awak- | on by the war
 The reorganized Southern Steel and Iron Company. tsouthern Steel Com pany) will shortly get possession of the properties through legal steps. application to be made in the next few days in the Federal courts in that di- rection. Petitions filed in the interest of an injunction against the reorgan- ized company have been denied and 1t is hardly believed the former officials will have much chance.
 The coal and coke trade in Alabama is exceedinly dull. Several mines have closed down or are running on very slack time. There is no prospect of an improvement either in the near future. The summer promises to be dull as far as coal goes unless there is a decided change in conditions
