Fsti- mates of early car contracts have gone as high as 160.000. In actual orders 2,300 cars for the Santa Fe is the larzest item, and the has placed 1,000 boX cars. Three Western roads are about to buy 1,000 cars ach. and the !. & N. and Southern cific will build 1,000 box cars esch in their own shops. In locomotive o ders. 100, 2 good beainning has been made. Canadian ro are also ne- gotiating for new rolling stock The favorable decision in the Steel corporation suit. tho h received with much satisfaction, has not been a market factor. The main considera- on throughout the trade has been the probable effect on mill deliveries to nen-railroad buy and on prices, of the orders the railroads will place. There is a zood deal of uncertainty as 1o the amount of cquipment the roads can finance al once. The buyirg of finished steel by the railroads for car repairs and other purposes will be considerable. The Pennsylvania took about 10,000 tons of plates, shapes and bars last week. paying 3.50c to 4c for plates and {c for bars. Prompt shipment on certain railroad purchases being made which may mean that deliver: {roubles of some other buyers will not improve. Naturally specifications on $47 rails. are going promptly to the mills. while those on $37 rails are held back. Opposin developme: ds o views are coming out on ts in the next three months. 1t known that some in- dependent mills have no large hook- ings ahead, but much hinges on the rate at which transportation can be untangled. There is questioning of the Lizh prices established for certain products; at the same time, the rigid attitude of sellers remains. Car supply has not improved in the Central Wes Tn the Pittsburgh dis- trict it has s reely reached 65 per cent. At Youngstown output of fin- ishing mills fell to 60 per cent from the same canse. Pig iron production las at the highest rate sinc 1919. The total for the days was 8,879 tons. or 102,720 tons per . as against 5,015,181 tons in Jun- 64 tons per day. In 1919 was 105,006 tons is month was ¥February, active blast furnaces net zain of 14 in the past month. The capacity of these furnaces is 104,580 tons per day, which compares with 99,465 tons per day for 280 furnaces on Feb. 1. Sur- prisingly. in view of the recent ob- stacles to stecl works operation, pig iron production March 1 was at the rate of more than 358.000,000 tons per vear, or close to the average for 1917 and 1915, Some accumulation of pig iron at steel works is thus in- dicated. The reports of sales of basic pig iron at Pittsburgh by steel companies at less {han the recent level of $43 Valley, have been confirmed, as se eral thousand tons went at $11.50, Valley, but other sales have been made at §43. The weakness in the basic market is attributed to de- creased demand due to the steel plants not being able to work at capacity There is a strong feeling in the Pit burgh district that piz iron prices will not be higher in the near future. In the East the pig iron market is strong, with some tendency in the Philadel- phia district toward higher quotation New labor troubles, together with lack of raw terials and shortage of cars have created conditions in the steel trade of Great Britain similar to those in th country. English steel m are unwilling sellers at any price. The majority of Welsh steel workers ave on strike for a 40 per cent wage advance. The tin-plate industry is particularly threatened owing to the culting off of supplies of bars. Workers are demanding 6 holr shifts and labor already in- sufficient. Output will be reduced 20 to 25 per cent if present demands are enforced. LOCAL STOCK MARKET QUOTED numbered : is Richter Eddy & Co., Mgr.) l (Furnished Stanley K.
