Slump in Pig Iron Prices After Large Dump
Pittsburg June 26 Thirty five thousand tons of pig iron were dumped into an already bear market causing prices to fall from 25 50 to 23 50 a ton with indications of further declines. The Milliken Brothers failure led to cancellation of orders for fifteen thousand tons of Bessemer and twenty thousand tons of basic iron. Jones Laughlin bought five thousand tons at 23 50 a ton. The Milliken firm had been buying near 25 a ton, worsening the drop as finished product prices did not support raw iron at that level.
