TO MAKE STEEL TUBES BY NEW PROCESS

SAVING WILL BE EFFECTED BY THIS. AND NOT
BY CONSOLIDATION.
Philadelphia. Dec. 31.-W w. Gibbs, who arrived
home to-day from Pittsburg, gave out a statement
regarding the report that he is interested in a
proposition to form combination of the steel tube
concerns in this country. He said:
i do not know of any steel tube combination. nor
am seeking to effect further consolidation of
steel tube interests since they practically
united in the National Tube Company, which owns
almost all of the important tube plants in the
United States. ] can ascribe the rumors of my
connection with a tube project only TO the fact
that am connected win a company in course of
formation which proposes to enter upon the bust
ness of manufacturing tubes under process which
is successful in England. and under which il is
claimed, far better results being obtained at a
big reduction in cost over the process in
in the United States.
Our experts are now on the way TO England to
observe personally the practical workings of the
process and as soon as the reports confirm the
ports of the English experts shall at
negotiate for the purchase Of three four large
works already in operation, suitable with Slight
alterations to the manufacture of tubing under the
new process. The necessary capital will be insured
and developments will probably come rapidly.

miles north of Aladdin, in the vicin-

found in the brush on Elkhorn Creek,
near Dents ranch, his hiding place
being made known to the sheriff by
Mr.. Dent, upon learning the terrible
crime with which Ward was
charged. The fugitive was asleep
when the sheriff came upon him,
and when aroused offered but Slight
resistance. He was taken to Dead
wood and placed in the county Jail
Sunday night. Excitement was at
fever heat when it was learned the
arch fiend was in custody, but no
violence resulted, and it is believed
Ward will be granted fair trial,

Rapid City Didn't VIII

The Rapid City running team
went down to Hot Springs to con-
test for the $3.50 purse hung up by
the citizens of that place for race
between Rapid City and Lead, much
speculation having been INDUCED in
as to the relative merits of the two
running teams. The race came off
on schedule time, and was pretty
exhibition of speed for a greater
portion Of the dis stance, until Rapid S
"spike, Frank Graves, seemingly
weakened, and slackened his
pace. Rapid was ahead until this
time, and it is believed would have
won without Graves if he could
have got out Of the way and not him
dered the rest of the team. AS 1T
was, Lead won by a very narrow
margin. This experience may lead
to the reconstruction of the Rapid
running team along different liues.
The boys feel a little sore over the
manner in which the race was lost.
