An Increase OF 100 Per Cent in the
Price Of sc-np steel.
PITTsBURG Feb. 1O.-Owing to the in
crease in the production OF open-hearth
basic steel, scrap ste: has increased in
price 100 per cent during the last six
months and the shortage has become r
sore point with scrap metal dealers. The
railroad companies are reaping golden har-
vests, however. Many Of these are ex-
changing rails bought : $50 and less. Of
light weight, after several years use, for
heavier weight rails.
The Carnegie Steel Company during the
week cleaned up $50 600 in old rails
throughout the country al $50 a ton
These rails are shedred into lengths OF
about five or SIX feet mixed With pig
IRON and other scrap and charged into the
open-hearth furnaces. where the whole
mass is melted and made into open-hearth
steel This Is OF q superior quality 20
Bessemer steel, and the demand for il is
increasing. The price Of the TAO grades
Of steel have gradually been approaching
each other, and Open-hearJh steel finds a
reader market Rails are among the best
scrap materials that can be had.
a mill was recently started here to re-
roll old rails. The neck or part between
the iange and the head Of the rail is cut on
and made into steel for shoehorns- Il is
said that Massachusetts shoe -manufactur-
ers use 10000 tons Of material each year
for this purpose The hangs Of the rail
is rolled into merchant steel, the top
OF head OF the rail is rolled into wire
and made into nails, etc. These are but a
few OF the methods adopted to use old
rails, hence J-eir enhanced value from
