THE STEEL ASSOCIATION.
Efforts Being Made to Continue the
Combination.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-There is every
reason to believe that report will be
submitted early next week by the spe
cial committee appointed at the recent
meeting of the American Bessemer
Steel Association held in this city to
see what could be done toward smooth
ing over the serious differences of
opinion among some of the big steel
manufacturers. Dispatches from the
West intimate that arrangements have
practically been made for a continual
ton of the combination, the dissolution
Of which was threatened by the with
drawal of the Bellaire Steel Company
Oh Ohio.
The Carnegie, Pennsylvania, Mary
land and Illinois Steel Companies were
conspicuously interested in the recent
meeting and it is believed that through
their efforts a harmonious arrangement
has been made with the Bellaire Steel
Company Some important develop
ments are expected at the meeting
which has been called for next week
by Secretary Griscornb. Whether the
meeting will be held in this city or in
Pittsburg has not been made public
Even though the breach in the ranks
Of the American Bessemer Steel Asso-
citation be closed UP it is not consid-
cred likely that any attempt to advance
the price of steel billets will be made.
The present condition of the steel mar
ket is not favorable to high prices and
the existing price of SIT per ton for
steel billets is about all that the market
will stand. The makers of steel rails
are putting down their prices in order

STOCKTON TURNER.
Training Hard for His Fight With
Billy Lewis.

One of the Stockton papers has this
to say of Charley Turner, the colored
pugiliSt, who is to meet Billy Lewis
of this city in the ring here on the
18th:
Charley Turner the colored pugiliSt,
arrived here yesterday morning, and is
now in training for his fight with Billy
Lewis at Sacramento on the 18th or
next month. He is being trained by
Joe Ruiz at the Athletic Clubs house.
where he punches the bag and spars
TO keep his muscles in good trim. Ev-
cry morning he takes a run along the
railroad to French Camp and back, to
give him lung power
Turner is looking very much better
than when he left here and went to
San Francisco His recent training
for re-entrance in the ring has become
apparent in his physique, but it re-
mains to be seen whether he is equal
to what he was some ten years ago.
He is now 80 years old, having attained
the limit generally placed on pugilists
by those best acquainted with ring
contests. His opponent has much the
advantage of him in this respect. being
but 81 or 30 years of age, while the
weight OF the Two Is ABOUT equal
THE fight is to be a ten-round con-
test, 10 per cent. of the money to go
to the man making the most points
and the remainder to the loser. 1t is
not generally known that Turner and
Lewis had a battle i'm Nevada, Op-
site Grass Valley, some ten or eleven
years ago, but that is a fact. Turner
knocked his man out in eight rounds,
but those who knew him then and
have heard of Lewis triulnphs In the
East since that time do not place
much Importance in that circumstance,
especially as the coming fight is to be
a ten-round go.
Lewis was nothing but an amateur
when he fought Turner in Nevada, and
was only about 21 years old. Since
then he has developed wonderfully and
has beaten many middleweights in the
East. He is now ait his best as far
as years are concerned, while Turner
has reached the limit, as already
stated"
The Stockton paper Is considerably
off in some things 1t is not ten years,
but about six, since Turner came into
note as a, fighter, and less than five
years ago Lewis was but a beginner.

Big MINING CORPORATION.
SIXTEEN HUNDRED ACRES OF
GOLD TIMES EMBRACED INIT.
The Claims Are in the Richest Part of
the Black Hills, and Work Will
Begin at Once.

NEW YORK Jan. 3.-Sixteen hun
dred acres of gold mines, embracing 80
claims in the richest part of the Black
Hills, have been transferred to a new
mlnang and smelling company in which
prominent New Workers and Philadel-
phians are interested.
The corporation, under the title of
the Edgemont and Union Hill Smelling
company, came into legal existence
early last night at it's general office in
She Corporation Trust Company's build
2ng In Jersey City, by executing it's ar
tlcles of incorporation and electing a
Board of Directors, which immediately
selected the officers of the corporation
When this had been done the deeds to
the property, which were previously ex-
ecuted, We're formally delivered and
conveyed the mining claims to the cor
poration-
r. E. Pattison, former Governor of
pennsylvania, was elected President of
the company; J. T. Searles of New York
Vioe-President; J. w. Westley, Superin-
tendent of the Corn Exchange National
Bank of Philadelphia, Treasurer, and
Thomas Bradley of Philadelphia, Secre-
fary. These men are in the directory
together with j. T. Andrus, John Daw-
son, j. Edward Masten, William K
Kurtz of New York and c. A. Fletcher
Joseph F. Crater, W. W. Frasier, Philip
s. Horty, David Jones, c. S. Middleton
and Francis G. Cradle of philadelphia
The capital stock of the corporation is
S3,500.0O0 and is owned entirely by the
men named
The claims now owned by the COM
pany are in the Bear Buttes Mining Dis
trict, near the new town of Union Hill,
about six miles from Deadwood and
eight miles from the famous Home
stake mine.
Arrangements have already been
made for the beginning of mining oper-
ations on large scale at once. Three
hundred miners are now on the ground,
a smelter to cost 100000 has been or
dered at Edgemont and the large
smelter now at Galena, few miles dis
tant, has been contracted for Beside
this contract has been made for the
construction of a 400-ton stamp mill at
Union Hill on the grounds of the COM
pany.
For the lighting of the company's g
town of Union Hill an electric plant is
now being put in which will also furnish
power for running the drills in the
mines and for operating a railroad for
the transportation of ore. This road is
now located and will be completed be-
fore spring and form a connection with
the Burlington system. All that was
waited for before putting the arrange
rnents into active operation was tele-
graphic notification of the actual incor-
poratiOn.
