F0UNDRYMEN PESSIMISTIC Birmingham, Xov. 3. (Special.) Southern pig iron manufacturers are In a more hopeful mood and it Is believed that before long there will be a decided improvement in the Southern metal mar- ket. A few sales of pig Iron are being made, and one company in the Birmingham district announced a day or two ago that an order for 10,000 tons had been booked for delivery In the first half of the- coming year. There has been some urgency noted on the part of con sumers for delivery on old orders.

The cast Iron pipemakers are getting ready for a heavier melt. While the general statement is that the pit iron market Is very quiet, there Is no sign of an early curtailment of pro duction. The accumulated stocks are far from being of such proportions as to cause alarm. The better grades of pig Iron still aro somewhat scarce. Lower grades are wanted by pipemakers and others, and all demands are being met promptly.

Steel operations in Alabama are still steady, with prospects of improvement In the near future. The works of the Tennessee Coal. Iron Railroad Com pany at Ensley, part of Greater Birming ham, aro being operated four days week, while tn plant of the Gulf States Steel Company at Gadsden Is doing better. There will bo need for a larger out put of steel before long. There will be need for a large quantity of steel billets at Ensley at the plant of the American Steel Wire Company.

There is hope that before tne turn or the year railroad estimates win he in hand. Foundrymen' and machine shoD pro prletors continue pessimistic anent the situation. tew straggling ortiers are being received from Cuba, Mexico and elsewhere with some work being done in the home territory. This has a more or less encouraging effect, Tiie scrap iron market is very ragged. A little charcoal Iron is still selling, but the make is at Its minimum.

The char coal iron prices are high, around J23 to $24.50 per ton. Coke Is In fairly good demand, with the production holding The Sloss-Shefileld Steel Iron Company has drawn its plans for 300 beehive coke ovens, the plant to be operated in the western part of Jefferson county, near Bessie Mines. J. C. Maben, president of the Si oss-Sheffield Steel Iron Company, favors the beehive ovens over the by-product plants.
