IMPORTANT PIG
IRON DEVELOPMENT
Increase in Buying in East
ern Territory
PRODUCTION is GREAT
Tonnage Is 2,S15,336 Compared With
2,754,353 in April and January.
Iron Ore Movement
Breaks Records

Cleveland, O., June 4.-(Special)-Th
Iron Trade Review tomorrow Will say:
The most important development for d
number of weeks in the pig iron market
has been the very encouraging increase
in buying in eastern territory and much
more active inquiry in the east and in
the Pittsburg district. 1t seems that at
last many buyers have come to the con-
clusion that it is time to at least make
Il thorough investigation of market con-
dtions. The probability that there will
be an active buying movement is much
stronger New inquiry in Philadelphia
and New York districts is conservatively
estimated at about 10000 tons, of which
q, 900 tons have developed into orders.
The production of pig iron by the coke
and anthracite furnaces in May was the
greatest in the history of the trade, the
tonnage being 2,sl5ss6, compared with p.
754. 1853 tons in April and January of this
year, which have previously held the
records The number of active stacks on
May 81 was 2S5. a loss of Il compared
with the last day of April. the largest
loss in two years. The blowing out of
furnaces indicates that there will be a
The merchant furnaces made the principal
gain last month. but eight merchant
stacks We're blown out last month and

May was likewise a record breaking
month in the movement of iron ore, the
shipments from the Lake Superior re-
gion being 7,2S4212 tons, the greatest for
any May in the history of the lakes.
Owing to the unfavorable weather which
prevailed during a large part of the month
this showing is indeed remarkable. and
indicates that the fleet could easily handle
J0,000,000 tons during the season. The
only question is as to whether the trade
conditions will justify such heavy move
ment.
Agricultural implement manufacturers,
who have been hesitating about buying
bars are showing more disposition to con-
tract and one middle western concern
has closed with an independent maker
for 5000 tons for shipment for the year
beginning July /. 1918. Bar manufact-
| urers declare that reports of lower
price than / 40 are without foundation.
The declines in the quotations on bars
and plates have consisted of settling
down to the quotations which have long
been made by the leading interest. There
have been very few cancellations and
suspensions and consumption continues
very heavy.

given in the confession of Raymond
Raab, fifteen years old, who is under

Young Raab enumerates the build

stroyed with a $4,000 loss last De-
cember. Two persons then lost their

Raab had been suspected for some
time, as it was observed he was often
among the first on the scene of fire
when an alarm was sent in. He was
arrested and under severe questioning
confessed.
He started four fires last week, &C
cording to his confession. While en-
ployed in a store for one day he tried
to destroy it twice. He wanted to
"see the firemen come" he said. Las'
Monday he fired mattresses and paper
In a large furniture house, which suf.
