The Iron Trade Review say : The week has been one of decided activity In the Iron trade and with the Improvement in demand has come some advance in prices this being mot marked in southern pig iron. Whether because of the steel corporation's pur chases, or because of other signs of a supposed turning point a number of Important consumers of forge and foundry Iron have been on the mar ket and large transactions have result ed. Some of this business was done at 9 at furnace for southern number two, but 19.25 Is now the common min imum of southern sellers, while within a day or two $9.50 has returned as the firm quotation of some furnaces. The week's business for the Southern Com pany was 55.000 tons and another was not far behind. The heavy pig iron buying and the developments of the week In certain finished products have begotten a much more hopeful feeling throughout the trade, which the com ing of the season for building oper ations has done much to Increase. The steel corporations, besttemer pig Iron purchases, and options, are closely entlmated at J70.000 tons, of which about 90,000 tons Is iron actually taken. Outside buying of bessemer and the week's business !n forge iron bring the total up to 200,000 tons. The options a re to be expected on the 10th of March and April. Pittsburg district pipe works have been In the market for gray forge iron, about45,000 tons being taken by two interests. A cast iron pipe foundry has been a buyer of forge and other Irons to the extent of 12.000 tons of foundry grades. A number of consumers of foundry iron In the Chicago district and 'the central west have been In the market In the week and the buying movement has been broad and well sustained. While 37.75 at southern furnaces has been touched on gray forge, 8 is now the minimum, and In the Pittsburg district northern forge ias advanced to 313, whllp central western furnaces that have shaded 312 at furnace for number two foun-lry in recent weeks are no on a $12.50 basis. ' The March 1 report from blast furn- nces using Lake Superior ores reflects the steady Increase in production In February. There were 113 furnaces in and 60 out on March 1, while of 166 reporting on February 1, 99 were ac tive and C7 were idle. The steel cor poration hod four-fifths of Its furnace capacity active on March 1 as against two thirds on February 1. The Pittsburg dietrlct seconds the more active condition pig iron with a oheerful report concerning finished material, though heavy products are still mch behind the lighter forms. authorities are again pressing the Chi nese to insifit on the departure of the Russian gunboat Madjur from his har bor, says a dispatch to the American from Shanghai.
