Agents rush about from ono mill to another begging, pleading, for mill products. A twenty-four hour dolay to Bhlpplng on the Uikcs Is estimated to havo cost $100,000, so groat Is tho demand for Iron ore. Buyers who used to have their own way when they wont cast find that tho manufacturers and wholesalers nro autocratic and, least of all things Inclined to mako concessions In pric es. Tlicro Is virtually no unemployed In tho manufacturing districts. A labor fnmluo Is prodlctcd. A few weeks ago, husluoBa men wore in doubt ns to tho (iimllty of the boom.
