But IS That RumOred Combination Of
Steel Companies = Fact or Not?
PHILADELPHIA, April 3.-James A.
Swank, general manager Of the American
Iron and Steel association, in response to
a request from the Associated Press for a
statement regarding the rumored combi-
nation of STEEL companies, said: Il have
no definite Information about a pooling
arrangement, but any arrangement among
manufacturers Is justifahle that secures a
fair reward for capital and labor and does
not unfairly advance prices. There is no
danger that prices will thus be advanced.
Our iron and steel manufacturers have
never yet taken undue advantage of their
customers. 1t is not for their interests to
do this, and they will not do so now, but
they ought not to be expected to continue
the ruinous policy Of giving their products
away and thus inviting additional fnan.
cial disaster for themselves and others
Better prices for iron and steel will bring
better times for every body
PHILADELPHIA, April NEARLY all of
tho leading manufacturers of steel billets,
rails, slabs and blooms, or their repre-.
sentatives, will meet in New York tonight
at the Hotel Savoy to perfect a combina-
ton for the control of the price and the
nature and quantity of the output in their
respective branches of the steel industry
Eighteen of the twenty-five large concerns
in this country are expected to be repro
sented at the meeting

Scene That BeggaEs Description.
The explosion occurred while Manager
Alexander was at dinner and the cause is
stated to be dry boiler. This version of
it is not. however, definite, as all con.
nected with the boiler and engine room
were killed except the chief engineer, and
he is too badly injured to make any state
:nent. After the wreck Of the plant by
the explosion fire seized the uins, but
this was suppressed by the fire depart
mont, not, however, until the bodies of
the killed had been badly charrel The
loss in dollars will reach $50, QUO, on which
there is adequate insurance in the Hart
ford Steam Boiler Insurance company.
About year ago the plant Of this oil mill
was entirely destroyed by fire, entailing .
loss Of something like $4,000, and it had
been rebuilt on such a scale as to make it
one OF the most extensive and complete in
the south. The scene attending the dis
aster beggars description. In addition to
the vast thrOng Of curious people there
were scores Of men, women and children
surging about the ruins in search for rela-
tives known to have been employed there,
most Of the latter being negroes. Their
grief was intense and added to the melan-
choly of the sit uation.
