THE STEEL MARKET.
Strength In Pig Iron Points to Inn
proyement In Conditions.

Aside from optimistic expressions Of
opinion regarding future developments in
the steel business by Judge Gary there
Is no perceptiole change In the steel In
dustry. Operations continue at about go
per cent OF capacity in all lines and
prices are easy. with consumers keep
ing pretty we'll out OF the market.
Sentiment In the Iron trade reflects i'm
provement. Pig iron Is the base OF man.
ufactured steel and the different forms of
finished material are directly affected by
its strength or weakness. AS the demand
for pig iron has quckened an improve
ment In steel products Is expected to fol-
low.
The strength In pig iron is the result
OF larger purchases by steel marufac-
turers. from which II Is argued that a
substantial betterment In steel conditions
Is looked for soon.
CLEvEIAED--The Daily Iron Trade
says: "Connellsville coke makers have
begun wholesale closing down OF works
and In past week blew out over 3,00C
ovens. showing operators are preparing
for duh summer. Illinois Central Is fig.
uring on 5000 cars"

w. j. Henry. secretary Of the meeting,
said that In his opinion the bankers or
Group should conduct the meeting as
Ihey saw lit and that New York had al
ready been subject TO enough criticism
in regard to banking Mr. Williamson
then said that he did not believe ma
sority of only four men should decide
such an important question and that the
members OF Group were not accustomed
20 taking chances in the banking world
and did not intend to do 80 In the meet
ing
Other members Of the group spoke for
and against Mr.. fireman until NJ C.
Elliott, secretary of the Federal Reserve
Bank Organization Committee, told the
members that the meeting had no legal
pigultcance as II had no part in the cleo
zion Of the directors of the bank.
Another vote was then taken on Mr..
Tr,nian's nomination, with the result that
he won by a vote " 20 to II. Mr. fireman
then refused the office. Two other candl-
dates. Y. q. Rigley and George Il. Merrill,

DROUTH DAMAGING TO
MONTGOMERY CROPS

Last week was an ideal one ior
farm work, and a great deal was
accomplished on many farms,
especially in tobacco, where
plows and hoes have been run.
ming from daylight until dark.
While tire are some fields of to-
bacco in the county that look
good and indicate good growth,
the majority of the fields are
very backward, and little start
has been made. The ground is
very dry and another good rain
is needed that will penetrate the
soil to good depth. Some to-
bacco men have become discour-
aged already, but is seems as if
this was a little early, as the
weed grows very rapidly every
where when it starts and a little
rain now and then will bring it
right along.
Wheat harvest is on and a
great deal of wheat, barley and
rye has ben threshed. There
were some fine wheat crops in
the county, and a field of twenty
acres belonging to Mr.. John T.
Woodford, averaged 80 bushels
per acre. Various other fields
