Although the conference at Chi cago recently (ailed to agree to reduce the output of pig iron, individuals have acted independently, and on August I only 240 furnaces were in blast, with a weekly capacity of 344.41b tons. This compares with a production of 383,41,) tons July I, by 284 furnaces, and 2(17,672 a year ago uy 107 plants. I'rcsent hg ures are the lowest since March, tSrjy, when the capacity was 2.28,105 tons. Fur nace stocks are 504,341 tons against 421. 038 July I. Reduction of capacity is larger in proportion than the recent ac cumulation of stocks. A smaller output of pig, with steadily increasing export and moderate activity in structural and finished material, promises to put thii industry on a more satisfactory basis Prices have steadied nn the lower level in most directions, but in some product the struggle is still on between buyer and sellers.
