NEW YORK. March 4.-Tbe plan for
a combination OF the steel wire rod and
nail manufacturers, which has been
under consideration for the past six
months. was practically consummated
:at a meeting held in the waldort-As-
toria hotel in this city to-day. The
combination will represent about $780,
1000 in capital. The name selected
for the combination Is "The American
Steel and Wire Company" q
The largest steel wire and rod COM
panies in the country TO the number OF
fifteen, VIII be in the combination. Only
FIVE concerns engaged In the nlanufac-
ture OF steel wire rod and nails
throughout the entire United States are
not! In the combination. Although Judge,
E. H. Gary, of Chicago. who Is the lead
ing man In the consolidation thus far.
would not consent, TO mention the names
OF the obdurate concerns, after the
meeting, he said, however, that they are
located in Oregon. Illinois, Ohio, Penn
.sylvania and New York.
There will be in oil about 10000 men
employed by the new concern, but as
the export trade OF steel wire rod and
nails is expected to be largely Increased
through the combination, 1t Is likely
that the number OF workmen will also
be increased very materially In the
future. The headquarters will be To-
Gated either In New York or Chicago.
1t Is possible that the choice OF these
two cities Will be made at the meeting
Tomorrow when some final legal ques-
tions relative to the new combination

Commenting upon the above. Mr..
Robert Wallace, president OF the Cieve-
land ship building company said:
Notwithstanding the difference In
wages between this country and Eu-
rope. there Is. believe. not the slight
est doubt but that modern steel or iron
vessels can be constructed In New
York or vicinity much cheaper than In
any foreign country. Owing to recent
great improvements in machinery used
In building boats. and the cheapness Of
steel the cost has been reduced until
there Is no longer o question as to our
ability to build ocean going vessels of
any class al a price which would defy
competition.
"I consider ship building yard in
New York or vicinity. backed by a.
company with ample capital, one of the
safest possible Investments and with as
surances OF large returns. iEtl
Il believe Il will only be q matter of
n short time when American ships will
be again supreme on the seas"
Mr.. Luther Allen, treasurer of the
Globe ship building company, said:
ship builders have realized for some,
time past that there is great field for.
the location OF a large. moderD,y equip
ped ship yard on the Atlantic coast In.
the vicinity OF New York. That such a
plant could construct sea going vessels
at less cost than is possible in Europe,
there Is little doubt. even taking ln.o
consideration the pauper wages paid
European workmen.
= "If we can sell steel rails and other
steel products to Europe such as is now
being done at profit. there Is no good
reason why we cannot successfully
compete with Europe IN ship building.
THE vessels OF the merchant marine
OF many foreign countries. however,
are granted subsidies, and until our
government extends a paternal hand in
the same direction for american ships,
the industry will labor under q disad-,
vantage" .5l5 -.
