MEANING OF CONSOLIDATION
Iron Trade Review Comments on
Late Developments In Iron
Industry.

CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 1.-The Iron Trade
Review this week. commenting on the big
steel consolidation, says: II is n product
Of events in the iron and steel world rather
than an effort to control events. 1t is a
part OF the evolution in the iron industry
rather than an attempt to bring about a
revolution. II 1t has an appearance Of FIX
ing for aggression it is only on the theory
that war status is the surest means Of
preserving peace. When the Carnegie Steel
company became a miner Of ore on a large
scale and arranged with the Rockefeller in
terests for carrying its ore at low figure
huctuating only within narrow limits, the
cry Of monopoly went up; but no move ever
made in the history of iron and steel manu-
facture was more plainly the product Of an
intensely competitive regime. The Federal
Steel company IS one of the later results
of the entrance of the Carnegie Steel COM
pany upon the Mesaba and Gogeblc ranges
An immediate result was that ore contracts
at Chicago were written with the price
clause based on the mining cost of the Pitts
burg company and 1t was only a step from
such an arrangement to an organic union
Of the Illinois Steel company and the
company from which, because of common
stockholders, it made its largest purchases
of ore.
The prominence of Standard Oil stock
holders in the new deal has been construed
in some quarters as significant Of close
future relations between the two dominant
mining and transportation corporations OF
the Mesaba range. And it has been only
step from this inference to the conclusion
that the Standard Oil interest in the Lake
Superior consolidated mines and the Bes-
semer Steamship company might facilitate
an understanding between the important
Pittsburg customer of the two latter COM
panies and the new company. There is good
reason to doubt the correctness of any such
surmise. The indications are that the COM
petition in ore between the two leading in
terests Of the Mesaba range will be just as
intense as it has ever been.
The plans of the Federal Steel company
allow for the addition of other interests
whose inclusion would be mutually ad-
vantageous Should there be no outcome OF
the tentative effort toward further absorp-
tion, it is to be expected that outside moves
will be made, bringing other steel works and
ore producers into closer relations. The COM
ing year bids fair to see some interesting
events of this nature.

DOCTORS OF DENTAL SURGERY
officers for the Ensuing Year and Next
Place of Meeting Chosen at the
Morning Session,

With the election of officers and the Sc
lection of the place for holding the next
convention the National Dental association
mas about wound up its annual convention
lts hrst since the reorganization of the So
ciety Niagara Falls was chosen over Bos-
ton for the next years gathering.
Following are the officers for the ensuing
year: President, II. ]. Burkhardt of Bata-
via, N. Y; vice presidents, S. H. Guilford
of Philadelphia, for the east; T. E. Weeks
OF Minneapolis, for the west, and b. Holly
Smith of Baltimore, for the south; corre-
spending secretary, Mrs. E. E. Chase of
st. Louis; recording secretary, George II
Gushing OF Chicago; assistant recording
secretary, William E. Walker of Pass Chris
tian, Miss; treasurer, Henry w. Morgan Of
Nashville, Tenn. Drs. Smith, Chase, Cush-
ing, Walker and Morgan are all reelected
DR.. Gushing was for twenty years recording
secretary of the old society. He is now in
California.
Action has been deferred for one year on
the questions of uniform state laws cover
ing the status of dentists removing from
one state to another and congressional leg
islation by which it is being sought to have
dental patents confined to mechanical ap-
parati only, barring out processes and
methods.
A very interesting exposition from DR..
c. S. Case of Chicago, in the section of
orthodontia, on the principles of force and
anchorage in the movement of teeth was
listened to. Dr. Case had everything neces-
sary for complete ocular demonstration in
the shape of models and appliances. His
idea is that by means of pressure facial de-
tormities due to the defects of teeth can
be corrected.
A further elaboration by Dr. Case of his
process of curing dental defects by means
OF applied pressure took up most of the aft
ernoon, after which there were papers by
Drs. V. II. Jackson of New York and S. IL
Guilford of Pennsylvania in their respective
sections.
Drs. G. l, V. Brown, c. s. Butler and J.
Y. Crawford were elected on the executive
committee to fill the places left vacant by
Drs. c. n. Pierce, W. p. Dickinson ard
George Eubank.
The final adjournment was taken at )
o'clock.

Rockbud sat by a Stranger.

Joe Rockbud had an experience out OF the
ordinary Wednesday. He was passing Jeffer-
son square about midnight when stranger,
who had apparently been drinking, asked
him to sit down on bench beside him.
Rockbud sat down and Immediately the
stranger jumped up ana called for the po-
lice. officer Rector was at hand and the
stranger gave Rockbud into custody, charg-
ing him with being a pickpocket Rector
took Rockbud to the patrol box and had
just turned in the call to the station when
the stranger came up and began TO strike
the prisoner. He landed two heavy blows
on Rockbud's face before the officer could
interfere. When Rector let go Rockbud to
stop the onslaught of the stranger the pris-
oner took leg bail and made his escape.
The man who complained is said to be a
South Omaha business man who had had a
long and quite successful wrestle with sum-
mer drinks.

Propose to Start the Mills.

CLEVELAND, o., Sept. General Mana
ger Schuler of the American Steel and Wire
company issued an ultimatum to the strik-
ers at the American mill today, in which
he says: I'VE are going to run this mill
and we are going to run 1t full before long
The jobs are there If the old men want
them, and If they do not they must stand
aside and see others take their places. The
American Steel and Wire company is paying
more than its competitors for drawing wire
and the scale will remain as it is. We
will not compromise. We will not receive
a committee of the strikers, neither will We
submit to arbitration"
The strikers show no sign of weakening.
Indeed they claim to be more sanguine
than ever of ultimately winning out in the
struggle,

MORE GOLD STORIES NORTH
Rich Finds Reported on the Hoota-

South Twenty-Fourth street yiaduct


The ordinance introduced at the last
meeting of the city council declaring the
necessity for a viaduct over the railroad
tracks on South Twenty fourth street is
simply step taken toward the fulfllment
of a promise made years ago to the prop
erty owners on the thoroughfare-if the in
tention to force the railroads to erect such
structure is bona tide and not merely a
bluff
Some eight years ago the council declared
similar necessity. In preparation for the
structure South Twenty fourth street was
graded, the cuts in some instances being
many feet in depth and the fills about as
great Some Of the property owners waived
damages; others brought suit for damages
The legal cases were decided against the
property owners, the courts holding that
without paying damages when it proposed
to make such a public improvement as a
Yiaduct
After the grading was completed the rail-
roads fenced in the two ends of the street
so that their tracks could not be crossed.
They refused to station any fagman at the
crossing. Before the roads and the city
locked horns over the matter the Eleventh
street yladuct case had reached the supreme
court and matters were allowed to lie quies-
cent until a final determination of the uues-
tions in the case were rendered. Now that
the decision has been given, the ordinance
is the preliminary step toward the building
of the Yiaduct.
