Washington, Nov. 24.-Although there is a
good deal Of latent opposition among the leaders
OF Congress, particularly In the Senate, to the
proposition for the creation OF new Cabinet
portfolio. to be known the Department OF
Commerce II is generally regarded as highly
probable that the required legislation will be
enacted at the coming session. 1t is known that
the President will strongly recommend it in his
message and that the large manufacturing and
other business interests of the country. that
were represented in the National Reciprocity
Convention here this week, will send influential
delegations to Washington this winter to urge
Immediately favorable action upon it The SUD
ject has been discussed in some form by every
Congress for the last ten twelve years, SO
that il Is very we'll understood by the national
lawmakers.
However, there does not yet seem to be q
very we'll defined idea to what will be the
scope of the new departments authority and
functions. That 1t viii relieve the Treasury or
considerable work now peculiarly within the
sphere of that department is understood, espe-
cially with regard the collection and dissent

detail as TO foreign tariffs. the merchant marine

vice which now belongs to the State Depart

Commerce. Secretary Hay favors this as do
also those who favor putting the consular ser
vice under the Civil Service rule Then. again
the Agricultural Department may have some Oh
its rapidly growing work put upon the new oe-
partment especially that feature which touches
foreign matters like the esta enlistment OF AMI

1t is thought that the act creating the new
department will be passed at the early stage CT

FORMING NEW STEEL TRUST.
ITS CAPITAL TO BE $4,000. .ooo-TO BE
INCORPORATED SOON.

A member Of the law firm Of Blymyer. Hobbs
& Clarke, OF No. 81 Broadway. last night gave
out some information regarding the proposed
new steel trust which IS about 10 be formed IN
this city. The principal thing which he had to
announce that the capital Of the combina-
ton would be $3.50. .000. 600 II had been re-
ported that the capital was to be S25 600, 900 or
$50 900 OOO but he said that he was in a posi-
ton to know the exact amount. The trust was
20 include all branches OF the industry. From a
legal point Of view everything was advancing in
a satisfactory manner, and the company would
be shortly incorporated in Trenton. y. j. Will
lam H BlyTnyer, of the firm, 1t was stated. Is
now in the Ohio coal and iron district. and will
be in Pittsburg to-day.
When asked what the attitude Of the United
States Steel Corporation would be toward the
new company. the lawyer said:
..Oh they VIII take one side of the fence and
we will take the other. Prominent men in wan
Street have predicted that It would not be long
before there another steel trust. There s
ample room for two steel trusts in the country.
Last week a number of prominent steel ana
iron men, who are not connected with the
limited States Steel Corporation. were seen IN
the city Among these Mr.. Frick, Myron
c Wick and George D. Wick of Youngstown
Ohio: L. E. Cochran. director, and one or the
largest stockholders in the Republic steel ana
Iron Company; Willis King. of Jones & Laugh-
lin of Plttsburg, well as several promlhea'
furnace men. There is not much doubt that
their presence here can be explained by the la0'
that the steel trust is on the eve OF iho'
poration
II was also rumored last night that the west
Virginia Central and Pittsburg Railroad. which
is controlled by ex-senator Davis and Senator
Elkins Of West Virginia, and r. c hefens' ..
St Jouis and which covers the largest deposit
of coal in the West Virginia district not pos
sessed by the Pennsylvania Railroad COMPANY :
was negotiating to dispose of its coal mines to
the new trust II was said that this company
had been forced to sell suspend operations
owing to the discrimination of the Pennsylvania
and baltimore and Ohio railroad companies
Another story heard was that negota tons "eIe
on foot for the absorption of the Tennessee
Coal Iron and Railroad Company, and that TINS
was supposed TO account for the recent strength
ening of its stocks.
Several Ohio prominent in the Industry
are in the city to-day in connection with the
formation of the new company.
