ARTIFICIAL WINTER
To Be Made For Use in the Manufac-
ture of Pig Iron

Fittsburg, May 29.-Preparations are
being made by the United States Steel
corporation for the erection of a refrig
Grating plant at the Lucy furnaces Of
the Carnegie company, which will prob
ably figure largely in revolutionary re-
ductiOns in the cost of making pig iron.
The plane, while an experimental one,
will be built on a commercial basis and
will cost in the neighborhood Of 800, 900.
The idea is to deprive the air Of a large
percentage Of its moisture by precipitat-
ing and freezing the water before the
blast is sent in to the furnace Blast
furnace owners have found that in win
ter, when the air is cold, dry and crisp,
they can make pig iron more cheaply
than in summer. when the air is filed
with moisture.
The experiment win be watched with
interest by all blast furnace men.

A DAY
Will Be Assessed Against China
After June 1.

Washington. May 29.-The department
of state has been informed reliably thai
the Chinese government has issued a de-
cree agreeing to pay an indemnity of
100000, 600 taels, equivalent to about
1881, ,000, 900 at the present rate of ex-
change. It is known now that the whole
subject Of indemnity will be closed up
before the end of the present month. II
that is not done and evacuation is not
under way on a large scale. then the
Chinese government must be assessed
$1,000 900 each day after June I next, to
compensate the powers for the mainten-
ance of their military forces in China
Under this whip the Chinese government
has been forced to yield It is not known
that the powers have agreed on the
form and extent of guarantee. but now
that the amount of indemnity Is fixed
not much difficulty is expected on this
score
The United States government has not
taken part in the selection of a military
Count Won Waldersee in the supreme
command at Pekin. Having dispensed
with our military force in China, the
United States is not concerned in the
personality of the military chief Our
legation guard will not owe allegiance
or obedience to any foreign commander,
but will be answerable solely to the
United States minister, or charge. In
the event of common peril, the several
legation guards may unite for the COM
mon defense in which case they may Sc
1ect their own leader as they did during
the defense of the legations last year.
