AN INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION.
A New Process of Steel Production That
Reduces the Cost Third.

PrTTsBURa. March 21.-Some few days
ago the great Carnegie iron works dis
charged some 300 men with the bland
excuse that they were not needed The
sequel is shown in the announcement
that Carnegie. Phipps s. Co. have intro
duced in their Homestead works new
process that promises to revolutionize
the process of making steel throughout
the world. The system is known as the
"Dirrell process" Its success is SO pro-
nounced that the management of the
prepare for general lowering of the
scale of furnace workers wages. This
announcement has met with bitter op-
position on the part of the men.
The system has been tested on the
steel armor plates now being turned out
at Homestead, and government experts
have pronounced the product good. The
Carnegies expect to keep a practical
monopoly OF the direct process, thus
controlling the steel trade. In the old
method OF making steel by the open
hearth system it was considered good
work to turn out two heats in twenty
four hours. With the new process, how
ever, four heats have been made at

managers say this will be improved
upon, while experts pronounce the pro-
duct superior to the old. So far as labor
is concerned, a heavy cut will be made.
The managers Of the mill say they will
soon be producing fine grade of steel
one-third cheaper than is done now.
The firm will soon add to the finishing
plant of the armor department gigantic
saw made of steel, weighing ll0 tons,
that will cut a nickel steel armor plate

NATIONAL SOLONS.
Matters That Will Occupy Atten-
/ ton the Present Week.
DISCUSSION ON THE SILVER BILL.

Tuesday, "Wednesday and Thursday
Will be Used by Advocates for and
Against Free silver in Presenting
Their Argumcnts-A Vote Ex-
pected This Week. ...
WASHINGTON, March el.-This week
will probably be the most exciting of
the present session of congress SO far as
the house is concerned. as tomorrow the
silver debate will begin, and a vote is
now expected to be reached on Thurs
day. Today is suspension day, and it is
supposed that several important bills
will be passed under the two-thirds rule.
Tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday
will be devoted to the consideration of
the Bland free coinage bill. On these
days the house will meet at i o'clock,
with recess from 5 until 8, and ad-
lourn at 10 p. m. unless a change in the
programme occurs. Friday private bills
will be considered, as usual, and on Sat
urday the private pension bills passed
last Friday night in committe of the
whole win be put through the house un-
der the order made last Saturday. The
free wool bill will be thus sidetracked
for over week. This bill and other
tariff measures will be taken up next
week, however, and considered without
interruption.
The pending special orders in the
senate are in regard to the repayment of
purchase money and fees paid on GER
tain entries of public lands, which is
opposed by Mr.. Berry, of Arkansas, and
has, therefore, been taken from the
morning hour so as to allow of more ex-
tended discussion than is permitted
under the five minute rule, and the res
olution with regard to the funding of
the West Virginia direct tax bill, upon
which Mr.. Morrill, is anxious to speak.
1t is not deemed probable, however, that
the aged senator from Vermont will be
sufficiently recovered from his recent
severe illness to be able TO take the floor
during the present week. For tomorrow
Mr.. Gibson, of Louisiana, has had as
signed his bill for permanent system
ofimprovent of the lower Mississippi, to
extend over a series of years. and to cost
about $15, 100000. To this plan Mr..
Allison has given notice of an intention
to move an amendment SO as to take in
the upper Mississippi. Mr.. Dolph and
Mr.. Mitchell desire to follow this meas
ure with bills for the improvement of
the Columbia river, Ore. The Indian
appropriation bill and District of Column
bia appropriation bill will be called up
for the senates action during the week.
