BIG STEEL COMBINE.
The Anglo-American Scheme
is Working.
The Bethlehem Vckers- Maxim Combination 10
Build Another Great Steel Plant in
This Country.
(Bv the Associated Press)


New York, August 3O.-The Mail and
Express today says:
The filing of mortgage for $500 900
by the Bethlehem Steel Company with the
register of Hudson county. N. j., stat
ing that securities deposited Hereunder
included o,555 acres of land on the Hack
ensack meadows brought to light a very
important feature of the big Anglo Ameri-
can steel deal which is now in process of
formation.
SIN spite of denials it was
officially stated today that the
Bethlehem combination will go
through and the details of the big
new company have already been agreed
on. 1t can also be authoritatively an
nounced that it is the intention of this
combination TO build another large steel
plant in this country, in addition to the
Bethlehem plant, to be used chiefly for
manufacture of armor plates for warships,
which will be the speciality of the new
company.
where the new plant will be located it
is impossible to state at this time, but it
will, presumably, be somewhere within
easy reach of the mining regions, and it
is understood that great shipbuilding
plant will be located in the Hackensack
meadows.
Gas to why the Bethlehem Steel COM
pany should have bought so much land in
this vicinity, it was explained today by
one who is familiar with the steel deal
that ]. Pierpont Morgan is the prime fac
tor in the scheme and it was convenient
to place the ownership of the land in such
hands. The railroad in which Mr.. Nor
gan is interested. including the Reading,
Jersey Central and Erie, will at no distant
date want a large amount Of terminal
property not too far away from Jersey
city and the Hackensack land will meet
their requirements perfectly
