Pig Iron Is Now Moving.
The long-expected and strike-de-layed buying of Bessemer pig iron has started at Cleveland. The United States Steel Corporation heads the list of buyers, and it comes from a reliable authority that this concern alone is taking every pound that it can lay its hands upon, leaving but little for the independent consumer. The price has not been told, but as the United States Steel Corporation fixed the last price at $15.25 in the valley it is altogether possible that it will make the same price upon the material whicn is now being sold.
