LARGER ARMOR PLANTS.
Extensive Changes to Re Made at
Homestead and Bethlehem.

PITTSBURG. Oct 3-The enlarge
mcnt Of the Carnegie armOr plants,
which was decided upon before the or
ganization of the United States Steel
corporation was effected is shortly to
be made. The last big contract for
armor plate given by the government
amounted to over 10000 tons, and the
requirements We're for deliveries be-
yond the capacity of the only plants
OF the kind in the country. After
many conferences the officials of the
Carnegie company agreed to increase
the capacity of the Homestead plant
to meet the demands of the govern
ment.
The recent control of the Bethlehem
Steel company secured by President 9.
Nj. Schwab Is believed to mean that
these two arm0r plate concerns are to
be held by the United States Steel cor
poration. The enlargement that Is to
be made by the Bethlehem company
has been arranged. and 1t is understood
that work will be started on 1t stimuli
tanoo,lsly with that In Homestead.
The enlargement Of the Carnegie plant
will cost about $30O0.0OO. When the
" work is completed. the tonnage Of this
plant will be nearly doubled.
