There were shipped from Newfound land in 1909 about 1,110,019 tons of ore, of which about 697,068 tons sent to. Canada for use at Sydney. Since 1896, or during the past four teen years, we have imported 7,521, 086 tons of iron ore, chiefly from Newfoundland and the south shore of Lake Superior.

Very little pig iron has been ex ported from Canada. The quantit- jes exported during the past two Years were 5,065 tons, valued at 186, 778, in 1909; and 299 tons, valued at 10,614, in 1908. The figures for 1909 include ferro-silicon and other similar alloys. Considerable quantities of pig fron are however, imported. Dur- ing the calendar year 1909 the im- ports of ordinary pig iron were 147, 925 tons, valued at 1,798,172, and of pig, 313 tons, valued at 5,- 148,838, valued. at March, a statistics for 1909 show a falling off in imports in all clagses of ir n and steel goods.
