The iron and steel industry may
no longer need the Dingley Rates

business is in this country, it has
not in the past year beol able t,

chic Brown in the Engineering
Magazine" shows that at the pres
ant time the United States is turn
ing out more iron and steel than
England and Germany combined
and is obliged to import large guam
titles from Europe to meet the re
quirements of manufacturers. This
is a remarkable testimonial to the
prosperous conditions in this coun-
try. Several years ago it was as
sumed that our iron and steel mills
had overreachel the capacity OF
the home market and in 1900 we
exported 1922, OO0, 600 worth Of iron
and steel. The Steel Trust com
blned the great mills, but new mills
have been built and today we are
manufacturing more iron and steel
than ever before and still we are
not able to supply the home market
In 1886 we produced a little mora
than 5000, 600 tons Of steel aud ey-
ported $4l, 900, 900 worth. Iu 1909
We produced 10.0O0,O0O tons OF
steel and exported sl23, OJ0, 900
worth of iron and steel pro Iucts.
Last year We produced l3, 500, 900
tons of steel and it was not enuaI
to the home demand. Iu 1900 the
home consumption of iron and
steel was 95 per cent Of the pro iuG-,

Are Illegally Held by Mrs. and
Mr.. Kight.

\ suit in equity which promises inter-
esting developments has been filed in
the Supreme Court of the District by
Mrs. Marjorie Tate McManus and her
husband against Mrs. Emma y Kight.
Arthur {. Kight and the Commonwealth
Proyident Association of Philadelphia. to
compel Mrs. Kight. who IS agent for the
company. to surrender policy of insur-
ance for $1,000. It was issued through
Mrs Kight by the association last year

Mrs. McManus, who was his wife An
effort is being made TO require the asso-
citation to pay the sum mentioned
In the papers filed by Attorney Thomas
". Field. it is stated that the policy was
issued by the defendant company last
summer. through Mrs. kight; that all
dues and premiums were promptly paid
in fGiI and that the policy was in iull
force when Mr.. Tate died some months
ago. 1t is asserted that Mrs. Right has
had possession Of the policy since 1t was
taken out. aud that she refuses to sur
render it unless Mrs. McManus pays her
cne-third the amount due under the pol
icy. She claims that Mrs. Kight retains
the policy tor the purpose OF wrongfully

is Mrs. Rights son. has been assisting
her.
Mrs. McIanus further states that the
association agreed TO pay her the loss

death and the receipt by it of the proofs
thereof: but that. although the time has
expired without any objection 10 the
proofs by the association. it has neglect
ed to assign any specific reason for not

sion Of the policy and, hold it pending
the suit and to require Mrs Kight to
deliver it forthwith to such officer and
Mrs. McManus also prays that final
decree may be passed directing the de
livery of the policy to her. and awarding
her recovery against the association
for the full sum due her under it.

dersOn yesterday. and he passed an order
/ requiring Mrs. Kight 10 show cause on

FAULT OF ANOTHER
LAID At HBR DOOR
Wrong Woman Blamed for
Trouble at the G.. P. O.
Miss Jordan Had No Connection With
Recent l. -ident in
presSEoom.

Recent inquiries regarding the case of
the woman press feeder at the Govern
ment Printing Office who refused, to
work few weeks ago because she could
not wear her hair dressed in exactly the
style she wished have brought to light
the fact that the young lady concerned
in the matter was not Miss Lula D..
Jordan, but another press feeder en-
ployed in the same department.
The statement made at the time that
Miss Jordan was the party concerned in
the trouble has been found TO he er-
roneous. Miss Jordan is under the i'm
preston that her name was given to the
reporter as the offending press feeder by
some one having a grudge against her.
The young woman who caused the trou-
bic has been found. and Miss Jordan
has been oxoDerated from all implica-
tion in the disturbance
II has been further learned that Miss
Jordan was not obliged to leave her
boarding house. but did so on account of
a disagreement over personal matter.
The young woman who was actually
concerned in the affair has not reported
for work since the trouble occurred al
though it was stated last night by Mr.
Henry c. Mcfarland. foreman of the
pressroom. that her position is sti1 open
to her whenever she appears with her
hair differently arranged. There is at
present no intention of striking her
name from the rolls.
