Structural Lines and Pipe Concerns Show eatest Activity. NEW YORK, March 7.—The Tron Ase says today: The outlook Is favorable for a moderate advance in bessemer ore, and there is little hope of any recovery in non- bessemer cres. As a matter of fact, sales of the latter have been made to eastern furnaces at figures lower than ever. This means there Js a_chance for a higher cost of bessemer pig, but little prospect, through producers’ necessities, in foundry grades. Only a rush in the demand can bring that about. The coke situation is puzzling. There s uneasiness as to renewed labor troubles, and some evidence that producers are maricuvering for an advance. The pur- chases of bessemer pig by the three leading Pittsburg concerns aré estimated at an ag- gregate of about 125,000 tons, which clears the market for some time to come. ‘A good deal of work s in sight in finished iron and steel. St. Louis has 4,000 cars to place. It s estimated thus far orders for 27,000 cars have been given out, which 1s & considerable improvement over last year. Tor structural work the outlook Is. quite pleasing with reference to tonnage. ' The Deluwire bridge of the Pennsylvania com- pany, involving upwards of 100,000 tons, is £oon to be given out. There is a prospect of a good deal of work in building iron. The Steel rafl trade continues” slow. Still, east- ern mills took about 117,000 tons, including 12,000 tons for a Georgia railroad. Activity in pipe contracts continues, the western mitfs Sweeping everything before them in their own territory. They took 5,600 tons for the East River Gas company, and 94,000 tons for Boston. Buffalo is in the market for 9,00 tons, and there are many small inquiries.

Princo of Wales’ ¥ucht Comes In Second in the Race. CANNES, March 7.—Under the influence of warm sunshine and’ a light breeze the yachts Britannia, Aflsa and Corsair started today In a race of the greatest interest to all yachtsmen, as enablihg them to form an idea of the ability of the méw cutter which may race at New York for the America's cup. Corsair got the besi of the start, with Aflsa at the tail end: The match was for prizes amounting to'£80; £25 and t4 for all yachts over 20 rating, held by Britannia. W. Fife, jr., the designer of the Allsa, and Ratsey, the famous English sailmaker, were on board the new cutter which, it is now stated, allows Britannia only one min- ute, twelve seconds, listead of two min- utes, as announced yesterday, To make the scene still ‘more attractive, soon after the big yachts ‘Started, a fleet of nine French war ships dppeared iif the roadstead, ‘and added vonsiderably to the attractions of the day, The prince of Wales with a party of friends was on the Britannia. The Corsair was soon left behind, and the race was be- tween the Ailsa and the Britannia, The latter had the lead at 1:25 p. m., when the Allsa passed her to the windward, and then had every prospect of winning the race. The times at the finish were: Adlsa, 2:21:22; Britannla, 2:24:08. Aflsa_won by 2:36 actual time, but she allows Britannia one minute, twelve seconds, and, therefore, the new cutter only wins by one minute, twenty-four. econds, corrected time. Mr. Henry> Allen's Amerlcan-built, 10- rater, Dakota, made a clever start in the race for her class, and eventually won the prize. OAPTALIN GLORL'S SIDE OF THE STORY. now Fitzsimmons Flew Too High and Spent All t Money They Mad, BALTIMORE, March 7.—Captain Glori gives his side of the existing trouble with mmons In about the following words: itzsimmons and I realized before the company was organized that if he could force Champlon Corbett to make a match with him it would make money for a show with which he was connected, When the time came for signing the articles of agreement and putting up the first stake deposit of $2,00 we had cleared $1,600 with our show already, of which, of course, was mine according to our partnership agreement. 1 then skirmished around and got @ friend to advance us $1,000, making the required sum for the first deposit. The show continued sccessfully, and there was not much trouble in gathering the $2,500. Meanwhile we reached 8t. Louis. Fitzsim- mons was throwing away all the money we made in the most reckless fashion. He was spending $60 (o 390 a week for hotel bills alone, He bought a diamond ring costing §360 and clothing worth $30. To aggravate matters, he had himself interviewed in sey- eral cities and stated that all of the money on deposit with the stakeholder for his match with Corbett was his alone. 1 spoke to him about this and his extravagance. Then it was that he turned on me and used cpithets that I could not afford to notice. He wanted me to break the agreement with him. This 1 consented to do if he would only refund me the $i50 which I had in the original stake, I got the richest cursing I ever heard for my pains. “Now comes a statement from Fitzsim- mons that he has dissolved the company, of which I am half owner, and formed a new one known, us the Martin Julien Specialty company.
