IN THE IRON AND STEEL WORLD.


The United States Steel Corporation
is not to be limited to American con
Germs if it is true, as stated, that Mr..
Morgan is engaged in negotiations
whereby eighty-fve plants of the
German Wire and Nail Association are
to come under the control of the new
corporation. Mr.. Morgan is said to
have picked out the German nail in
dustry as his first field of European
expansion, because it is the only
branch of the iron trade sufficiently
organized to be assimilated at me
mouthful. 1t is said that the export
trade of the German nail works, whose
annual output is 200, 900 tons, has been
practically ruined by American COM
petition.
1t is stated also that British manu-
facturers of iron and steel are greatly
alarmed over the enormous growth OF
the American steel industry in the las.
three or four years. The organization
of Mr.. Morgan's billion-dollar steel cor
poration has again stirred them up.
and an exodus of Sheffield firms is
threatened. At the annual meeting of
the great steel firm of William Jessup
& Sons at Sheffield on March IL, it
was decided to establish works for
the manufacture of crucible steel in
the United States and to abandon that
branch of the business in Great Brit
ain. The firm has found it a no
longer compete with the Americans.
American products are now con-
sidered superior to those of Sheffield.
and the American manufacturers car
undersell the British mills, fotwith-
standing that they pay a higher rate
of wages to all classes of their en-
ployes. Raw material car be obtained
here more cheaply and more readily,
fuel is much cheaper and the Ameri-
cans have labor-saving machinery that
does away with many of the hand pro-
cesses which are still in use in Shelf
field.
Another development that has scared
the Europeans is the report that the
United States Steel Corporation is TO
build a feet of cargo steamers similar
to that owned by the Standard Oil
Company, to carry its products to for
eign lands.
Notwithstanding this, and the pros
pect of the United States Steel Cor
poration dominating the whole world
in iron and steel. a large percentage
of the investors in iron and steel
shares in this country take no stock
literally and figuratively, in the new
corporation. According to the Ameri-
can Manufacturer, an effort to ascer-
tain what Pittsburg investors are
doing in regard to the exchange of the
old steel shares for those of the new
concern disclosed a remarkable diver
sity of opinion, some conservative peo-
pie having already exchanged their
holdings, while others utterly decline
to become shareholders in the United
States Steel Corporation, and are SELL
ing out to invest in something else.
The head of one of the largest bro
kerage houses and one of the oldest
H1ttsburg members Of the New York
Exchange, said: Il had investments of
my own in National Steel preferred

and Marriage.
Special to the Register.
PARKERSBURG, w. Va, March b.
The fact became known to-day that Lem
uel r. Via, a prominent young lawyer
here, had been married since the second
of last December, since which time the
fact had been carefully guarded so that
not even the parents of the young lad
knew of the marriage. They had been
sw~eethearts for some time, their introduce
ton being romantic and their love having
grown up at first sight. Mr.. Via was a
student at Columbian Law School, in
Washington, and Miss Lily Osborne, of
Leesburg, Va, sent him a bouquet on his
winning an oratorical prize. Later he met
her and fell in love with her. They were
married in Washington last December,
and kept the fact quiet ever since till to-
day, when Mr.. Via arrived here with his
bride.

Among tho miscellaneous sources
from which the United States govern
tn. cox.n, ment derives rev.
,., enue few are more
interesting t h n
the Conscience fund" 1t is not, in a
strict sense, a fund, but is the money re-
ceived from persons who are troubled
because they have defrauded the gov
srnment at some time, and desire, in a
spirit of penitence, to make restitu-
ton. Sums large and small are sent.
Usually aietter accompanies the remit
tance, explaining the nature of the
fraud, but rarely is the writer's name
signed. Uncle Sam makes acknowl-
edgment of all receipts from this
source in the Washington newspapers.
Some of the letters which are queer
~ expressed get into the newspapers
and create an impression that a contri-
button TO the conscience fund implies
eccentricity on the part of the sender.
An examination of the letters on file
at the treasury department would dis
pute the error. No one can read them
without becoming convinced of the
sturdy penitence which prompts them.
A clergyman is often the medium
through whom those make restitution
who, under his ministration, have been
led TO see the error of their ways The
largest amount in the history of the
fund-Sl4, O00-came through an Eng
lish clergyman. 1t was sent to make
good the penitent's frauds upon our
customs laws. One poor fellow who
had taken two loads of wood from a
government timber reservation, in
sending payment therefor, added:
"Let him that stole steal no more"
Conscience fund receipts, in the 80
years that they have been kept in sep
arate account, amount to $500, 900.
They aroused for current expenses like
any of the other moneys of the treas
ury.
