Cut nails have not been made in Allegheny county, Pennsylvania, since 1890. PRODUCTION OF WIRE RODS. The production -of wire rods in the United States in 1894 amounted to 673,402 gross tons, against 537,272 tons in 1893, an increase of 136,130 tons. Nearly all wire rods are now made of steel. Pennsylvania made the largest quantity in 1894, with Ohio second, Illinois third, and Massachusetts fourth in production. Four other States, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Indiana, also rolled rods in both 1893 and 1894. The following table shows the production of wire rods by States during the past five years, in gross tons. States—Grow ton*. New England and New York..
