STEEL MEN In POOL
Combination That Was Planned
Could Not Be COnSum-
mated.

New York, Dee. i1.-After many
conferences the details of a pooling
agreement have been completed which
will include all the important manu-
facturers of steel plates. 1t was orig
inally intended to form a company
which would combine in one corpora
ton the manufacturers of steel plates
and would work in harmony with the
United States Steel Corporation The
capital as first decided upon was $50
100000, but this was reduced to So
OOO.OOO when it was found that the
Jones & Laughlin. Limited, would not
sell its plant TO the new concern.
The second plan has been aban-
doned Options which were given by
the Lukens Iron and Steel company
and the Carbon Steel company were
only to become operative i'm case Jones
X Laughlin. Limited. were included In
the deal The owners Of these two
companies adhered to strict inter
probation of the options. and in con-
sequence the proposed steel plate com
bination was abandoned.
The only solution of the dithculty
was the forming of Il pool, which Is
now intact In the matter OF prices.
for this year at least. the arrangement
is said to be satisfactory.
