J. W. Mcqueen, vice president of the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron company, has made arrangements to barge pig iron from the Sheffield and Florence furnaces of the Sloss company to points on the Ohio river opposite Paducah, Ky, and Cairo, H., for shipment to the markets of the northwest This will give the Sloss company a very much better rate than the railroads were willing to make, and will give the Sheffield and Florence furnaces a decided advantage in pig iron in the northwest territory.
 These furnaces will commence ship ping from 2O00 to 5000 tons month im- mediately over this barge line, and it is expected that the shipments will be in the neighborhood of 5000 tons a month in the near future.
