The Illinois Steel Com pany Alarmed.

The stock holders of the Illinois
Steel Co, will hold their annual meet
ing for the election of officers and to
transact other business, February 10
1t is rumored that u complete change OF
of management will take place. The
company lost one million dollars in 1896
at least 30 it raports, and change in
the management OF the concern may be
made il only for luck, although the
great loss is largely attributed to II gen
eral depression OF the irsn and steel
business the county over. Tho dicker
ing going on between Carnegie and
Rockefeller is causing great anxiety to
other steel companies, and the Illinois
Steel Co, is basing it's ability to with
stand a combine of those two big men
on its recuperative powers. AS one OF
the means toward accomplishing these
ends the wages OF the employees W ere re-
duced few weeks ago from 10 to 40

1T SMACkS OF SUSPICION.
May be Dark Laid Scheme at the
Bottom of the Proposed Iron
and Steel Works at
Port Angeles.

A joint stock company, composed OF
western Pennsylvania men, is being or
ganized to build gigantic iron and
steel plant at Port Angeles, fine har-
Dor on the Pacific coast, 80 miles north
OF Seattle, Wash. The company have
been Incorporated under the laws OF
Washington State, and is capitalized at
81, 800 900, half of which has been sub
scribsd. George NJ. Nimon, of Brad
dock, is president; Thomas J. Murphy,
Pittsburg, vice-president; NJ. Z George,
Mckeesport, secretary, and William j.
Weisser, Allegheny, treasurer. Great
bonuses have been oiferel this company.
1t will be given so acres Of land as a
site for the plant, ard 200 acres for a
town site, with right OF way for a rail
road, and 800 feet wharfage on Puget
Sound. Vice president Murphy has
Just returned from Port Angolos. He
says he found everything as represented
by its board of trade. The company
will open an office this week at 444
Fourth avenue, Pittsburg. The plant
will employ 1000 men. Work is to be.
gin as soon as the weather opens in the
spring. 1t is proposed to erect blast
furnace, 30 open hearth furnaces, bloom,
billet, bar, rod, wire and rail mill, tin
plate dippery and the necessary ma
chine shops, boiler works, etc. The cap
itsl stock is divided into shares at 800
each. 1t is proposed to get number
OF western Pennsylvania iron and steel
workers to take stock, and in the spring
go west and build the works, and then
bring their skill to bear in operating the
plant Pittsburg Dispatch.
All of which looks plausible enough
on the surface, but which sort OF sounds
when investigated, There is money
even in this day in starting up boom
town where big bonus is given, and
especially where there is such draw
ing card as a proposed iron and steel
works with which to tempt the unwary.
Iron and steel works companies have
made money out OF Just such schemes
before, and what has been done once
can be done again. But this is only the
bsginning OF the end. A joint stock
company is good thing sometimes, and
particularly so where the stockholders
are possessed Of about equal means.
But whom a lot OF western Psnnsyl-
vania iron and steel workers" are in
duced to buy stock and then 60 TO work
in the mill, depending upon the long
headed individuals who got up the
scheme to make success Of the bust
ness, they are playing with fire and will
be very lucky, indeed, il they don't get
their fingers burned.
Tho moneyed men Of the company
will, OF course, buy up all the available
land near the plant, as has been done
before, sell it at big prices, and then op-
crate tho steel works in whichever way
it will bring the most money. II these
same men think it best to freeze out the
little fellows what 10 there to prevent
them from doing sof II the works
should lie idle, would not poor stock
holder prefer selling his 500 share at a
great loss rather than hang on to an IN
certainty
No doubt the officers Of the company
arc all honest men, but il they don't
manage this old scheme in the cid way
it will b surpsising.

CUNNING crows.
fhs strAtsgsn They Adopted a. .
Hunters Camp

Hunters Camp.
There were an almighty lot of
crows around the hut we occupied,
and enc day brought out my gun
and shot into flock. All escaped my
shot except one which was lying on
the ground wounded. went to the
place and picked the wounded bird up
and found that it's left leg had been
broken by the shot. Taking the crow
to the hut l amputated the leg and
taking hot coal from the fire
burned the stump so that it would not
bleed. The bird was then allowed to
go at liberty, but instead of leaving
the vicinity OF the camp 1t hung
around and the boys would feed it
xith crumbs from the table, and it
Decame quite tame. 1t would come
f-mping into camp just like veteran
after his pension.
'.At about meal e,ue the crow
could be expected at first, but at last
Its visits became more frequent. One
Of fac boys limited that the bird We
were feeding was not the victim OF
my gun shot and in investigating this
theory We found out what great do
eeiver the crow is. Up the alley lead
ing to the spot where the bril- had
been in the habit of receiving its food
there hoped one day fine black
crow There was nothing about the
bird to show that it was not the same
one that had been the objert of our
bou nty so long. 1t only ha.' one leg
80 far as We could see.
"'l'll bot that amt our crow said
Charley.
"'Yes it .s, too. says; 1T has only
one leg
".You wait and see, says Charley,
and away he hurried and returned
with his gun. Raising it and taking
careful aim he fired and the bird
stretched over on the ground de.e.
We made an examination, and sure
enough, the bird had two legs as good
and sound as any bird flying. When
1t had come into our camp it had
hitched the other up under its wiag
10 as to deceive us and secure fool.
1t must have watched us feeding tho
wounded bird and saw an opportunity
Of securing food by initiating that ono.
All crows are 80 near alike there is
no identifying one, and the only way
we knew ours wac by the one log.
When such clever imitator attacked
VS. We were badly fooled. do not
know what became OF the real
wounded bird. 1t never showed ur
after the other was killed. / don't
know but that we had been feeding
the bogus bird for the real one for
weeks before we found out our mis-
take as it was. New York Sun.
