PRICES OF IRON
TAKE BIG JUMP
Talk of Coal Strike Causes
Scramble For Coke;
Steel in Demand
New York. Oct. 30. —The order of j
the soft coal miners' union for a j
strike of 500,000 workers November ■
1, whatever may yet be done to
avert actual stoppage, has sharply
accented the market conditions pro
duced by the steel strike, says the
Age to-day. Pig iron has been
bought on a large scale at advance
-iuiching $2 a ton and in some cases
■sere; a scramble for coke has sent
prices up $1 to $1.50: and in several
finished steel products, following
the recent advancing tendency, has
come an active demand that had
made the scarcity more general.
The Middle West has been (he
center of action In pig iron, and !
foundry and malleable irons have
been bought heavily. both for j
prompt delivery and for first and j
second quarters of 1920. One seller I
at Cleveland disposed of 100.000 |
tons in 10 days. Buffalo. Western j
Pennsylvania, northern and south- ,
era Ohio and Chicago merchant fur
naces have done most of the selling,
but a fair amount of Southern iron
has been taken.
That foundries have urgently
needed iron is shown by shipments
to unusual districts, as from Ohio
to Buffalo and New England, from
Virginia to the Middle West and
fromt Northern Ohio to Chicago.
Steel-making irons have not been
active, but a St. Louis melter bought
25,000 tons at Chicago for 1920 de
livery and 6,000 tons from au Ohio
furnace. An Eastern Pennsylvania
plate mill has also been a buyer of
basic.
