IRON AND STEEL
 SLOWLY IMPROVE Improvement Extends to
 Raw Material FOUNDRY MOVEMENT Steadily Broadens and Good Con- tracts Are Noted---Most Sales
 Are Being Made in
 the East
FOUNDRY MOVEMENT

New York. July 2.-The improvement noted in finished steel products lo days ago was extended to raw materal-pis iron and coke-and to semi-finished steel last week. The volume of business in pig iron was the largest in two months' aggregating 100 tons. The largest con tracts were placed in the east.
 The greater activity was at the expense of prices, Buffalo furnaces dipping De- low SIS and eastern Pennsylvania furnaces shading s14 for No. 2 foundry. It is not able that a very little steelmaking iron was sold, but the foundry movement steadily broadened and contracts are now under negotiation for 100000 tons or more. Some of the targets melters of gray iron are in the market for long delivery, and many more small consigners are buying for early shipment.
 Contracts for foundry and furnace coke were placed in the east and central west calling for 25OO0 to 3Oo,00O tons shipments kto extend over six months to year. The larger orders for finished material quickened the mills and foundries so that the industry as a whole is operating Io per cent of capacity; the finishing mills generally have 70 to 75 per cent in com mission. June rail contracts aggregated 1SO,O00 tons: carshops booked orders Tor 4467 cars and 5000 more are under ne- gotiation; locomotive works for IA en- zines Steel orders were smaller, but the June contracts were the largest of the monthly record this year-12o,OO0 tons. There was more animation in the export field, including railroad and structural work for shipment to Central and South America Cuba and Porto Rico and the Dutch East Indies

BEAR|SH REPORT
 EXPECTED TODAY
Second Government Report of Season Will Start
 the Week

New Orleans, July 2.-The week in the cotton market will start in with
 the governments second report of the season on condition. A bearish repor'
 is expected, the average of opinion De-
 ing for figures of about S9, against SIS last month. Anything over sS.a
 will probably cause decline, unless
 the leading bull interests that nave been supporting the market in such determined manner of late put out buy ing orders regardless of what the fig ures are. Anything under SS.5 will probably cause an advance.
 Tuesday is a holiday and as the re- port on condition will not be issued until II o'clock, New Orleans time' the market will have only few hours or trading in which to discount it. It Is hardly to be expected that the report will be followed by much fresh trad ing, one way or another, unless 1t be of a manipulative character.
 The weather over Sunday will be watched anxiously for the Texas s1tu- ation is fast overshadowing everything else in importance. If rains fall In the west over Sunday the market will open lower but if no rains are seen it is probable that price changes Of importance will not take place on the opening and if reports of deteriorau ton in Oklahoma and Texas, such as came in last week, are received, it may be that bearish bureau figures may De robbed of much of their weight on the market
 With the bureau report and the hol- iday out of the way the trade Will set tie down to serious consideration or conditions in the western half of the belt. It is hardly probable that any thing but favorable reports will come from the central and eastern portions of the cotton belt, but it will take good rains to allay the anxiety already felt for the crop in many important eoun- ties of Texas and Oklahoma. If these rains fall the advantage will be with the bear side and the bulls will have to buy constantly to hold the market up. but if the drouth continues the bulls will be able to force prices up very cas- ily. no matter if a bearish condition report is issued on Monday The con- dition report will relate to June 70, and with continued drouth the con tention of the bulls will be that the condition of the crop has gone off ma terially since that date
