1t is n Powerful Combine Composed of
Big Concerns.
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 22.-Another steel
rail pool has been formed, more strong
ly fortified than the ono that wound up
its career recently.
The second pool was organized in
New York within the past few days at
a meeting OF the heads of five big con.
Germs. They are the CnrneQie Steel
Company, the Illinois Steel Company,
the Bethlehem Steel Company the
Cambria Iron and Steel Company and
the Lackawanna Iron and Steel Com
pany. These concerns have leased the
big new steel plant of the Pennsylyenia
Steel Company, ut sparrow's Point,
Md, and by this stroke have shut out
any possible competition. The new
pool has gone ahead OF the methods OF
the old one by fixing the price Of steel
rails at S24 a ton.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The iron orc
men have been defeated, and the men
who have combatted so valiantly to
keep this article off the free list wero
to-day informally notified by members
OF the ways and means committee that
it had been finally decided by the DEM
ocratic members that iron ore would
be placed on the free list. This is the
most important development Of the
day, as it leaves the iron ore men of
Alabama, Virginia and Michigan no
alternative but to carry their fight to
the floor OF the house. This they are
now threatening to do, and it is more
freely stated than ever that the new
tariff bill containing this new provision
will be opposed in the house by the
solid Democratic delegation from Ala.
bama and in the senate by Senators
Morgan and Pugh. The Western Iron
Ore Association, through President
George Il. Ely, Of Cleveland, Ohio, has
made protest to the committee. The
western iron ore men in their communt"
cation give history OF the develop.
ment Of the Lake Superior iron industry
and make an appeal for the retention OF
the present duty, not only in their own
interest, but in the interest Of the con-
sumer and the laboIing man, the letter
con ludes thus:
III, for while ahead. iron ore should
be any cheaper than it has been for two
years, 1t can only come through
materially lower wages, not only in
mining but on the docks, on the YES
seis and on the railroads that give it
transit to mills and furnaces and along
the line OF iuter.dependent industries."
The committee to-day concluded the
wool schedule OF the new tariff bill. The
measure provides for the admission
free Of duty Of all wools, hair Of the
camel, goat, alpaca and other like AMI
mails, and OF wool and hair on the skin,
top wastes and other wastes and rags
composed wholly or in part Of wool;
and also repeals what are known as
compensatory duties on woolen
goods, and reduces ad valorem
duties on such goods. It also
reppals the compensatory duty upon
carpets OF all kinds, rugs and mats, and
reduces the ad vaiorem duties thereon
from 40 per cent nd valorem to so per
cent. It also reduces the duties upon
certain qualities OF waste which has
been advanced beyond the condition OF
secured wool by the use Of machinery
or by the application Of labor to 25 per
cent ad valorem. The duty on shoddy,
mungo and certain other wastes 10 put
at SO per cent ad valorem.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Nov. 22.-At lao
o'clock this afternoon a special train OF
three coaches was started out OF the
William street yard for sayre Pa. A
new engineer, who had come here from
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy road,
was at the throttle, and forty.eight en-
giueera occupied the seats of the
coaches. Trainmaster Van Allen and
Travelling Engineer Mooney were on
hand to start them on the journey. The
train pulled out Of the yard quietly, and
a person not acquainted with the situa'
ton would have observed nothing uu-
usual about its passengers. 1t is not
doubted that the seventy.seven men
who went out on the regular train this
morning were all experienced en-
gineers. Thus it will be seen that
one hundred and twenty-five engineers
have gone east to-day. An old employe
was put in the cab with new Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy man to pilot him
over the road another old employe also
acted as conductor. 1t Ia stated that
the exodus of the Chicago, Burlington
& Quincy has been in the nature OF
crews rather than individuals. In
many instances conductors, engineer
and fireman and three brakemen, max
ing up regular freight crew on the
big western road, started for Buffalo in
a party and made application to be put
TO work on O train on the Lehigh.
They seem to be sober, steady men, &C.
customed to working together, and 80
far as consistent, it is said the Lehigh
people will comply with their request.
| One OF the new men made the following
statement To a reporter before the train
pulled out:
"Most OF US are men who went out on
the great Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
strike. Men from the eastern roads
who claim to be brotherhood men, and
some Of them from the Lehfgh, came
west and took our places. The CON-
pany gave them the preference over
such Of us as they took back. When
the strike was finally settled tho new
men we're given all the regular runs,
and we had to go on the rounds, first
in, first out. The company had about
twice as many men as they could use
when times were good. Things have
been very dull this fall and we were
lucky if we got in weeks work a
month. Many OF US did not get in four
days month; we could note make q
living. Just as soon as heard of the
strike I started for Buffalo. l guess
that is the same story OF all O., B. & @
