Brighter Prospects for YOungstINn Iron
Workers va
YOUNGSTOWN, Nov. 1s-The Andrews
Bros. Company's blast furnace, in the
eastern part Of the city, was blown In
Thursday, after shut down OF two
months. 1t is expected TO be making
iron to-day. This furnace turns out only
good pig iron. Over 200 men will be
given employment The Youngstown
Carriage and Wagon works, on West
Boardman street, employing about 100
men, will resume operations December
/, after long shut down. The Youngs-
town Bridge Company has received
several large orders, and the expected
shut down will thus be averted. The
Andrews Bros. Company has announced
that on Monday morning II will start
its finishing mills, regardless Of the
Amalgamated association. The COM
pany expects, also, TO have its sheet
mill in operation within week. Quite
surprise has been created here by
an announcement from President
Carey, OF the Finishers' union, that he
will come to this city soon to be a heat
er at the Mahoning Valley Iron Com
pany's mill. Carey said he would
move his family here from Pittsburgh
and become permanent resident.
