They had immemorially worked their
veins OF iron. from 40 per cent to so
per cent pure metal, in primitive lit
tie ferrerias, knowing nothing of
blast furnaces They scarcely believed the
Campanil ore to have value; SO it was
a good joke to fill up the English boat
with rubio refuse. which. they wern
convinced, the foolish foreigners could
not distinguish from it.
They did. The rubio stuff was put
into the English furnaces, worked and
produced iron of such superb character
that the purchasers hurried a secret
fleet to pick up permanent supplies
of it.
Such was the discovery of "Bilboa
iron" by Duranona, a man without NAL
ice naif. big-mouthed. who published
the news. SO that all his neighbors had
an squal chance. Duranona became ex-
hands, and all the strong men of that
first generation. With capital beyond
their dreams from selling easily mined
rubio without limit they had every
advantage over foreign syndicates. en-
gineerS and spectators. and the Span
ish mining laws aided them.
