STILL NOTHING DEFINITE
Concerning the Big Steel Combine.
Many Rumors Are Afoat.

NEW YORK, February 13.-Confer-
ences for the purpose of discussing the
Carnegie-M Morgan steel deal are still
held daily in this city, several import
ant meetings occurring to-day. No Off
cial announcements were made, but
there was the usual stock of Wall street
and hotel rumors One of these rumoIs
was to the effect that President Charles
M. Schwab, of the Carnegie Steel Com
pany, would certainly be made the head
of the new steel combination. Those
best qualified to talk regarding this
matter were, howver, still silent. 1t is
generally believed among steel men in
terested that some form of an official
statement, outlining the policy of the
new combination will be given out this
week.
Perhaps the most authoritative
statement given out to-day was that
made by Judge D. G. Reid, leading
factor in the so-called Moore Steel
companies"
while | cannot give the details of
the meeting, | will say that everything
is running along smoothly, and We
shall be able to make complete an
nouncementS in few days"
From this it is inferred that the SEN
timent of the majority of the stock
holders in all four of these companies
favor the combination and that the
present delay is merely occasioned by
discussion of the details.
PITTSBURG. Pa, February 13.-The
new features to-day in the Carnegie
Morgan negotiations according to the
Pittsburg Leader are that the deal will
be closed Friday; that President C. NJ
Schwab will be the head of the new
company to be formed and that An
drew Carnegie is to receive a sum
larger than has been given in any Of
the many accounts sent out from New
York
The intelligence was brought to Pitts
burg by a we'll known bankers, who
has been in New York for several days,
and late this afternoon the statement
that Mr.. Schwab has been chosen pres
ident was confirmed in telegram from
a gentleman participating in the con-
ference at New York.
