Everybody Now Looks For a

Pittsburg. Pa, July 2o.-The steel

and the developments of the next 2
hours are expected to have an import
ant bearing on the great struggle.
By Monday night the results of the
attempts of the combine officials to re-

the success or failure of this the out
come of the struggle will greatly de-

vessels of the German navy are fitted
for the use of this oil. and some of the

The advantages of ''masut'' over coal
are said to be a one-fourth greater heat

handling, very little smoke and the
ability to produce full power steam in
less time than with coal.
