HOW IIE WAS ROBBED.
Bessemer's first invention was per-
fcrating machine which would prevent
frauds long pract!ced in the transferring
OF stamps from old documents to now
ones, form OF fraud through which the
British government had for years been
losing about 100000 year. The govern

which belch forth their shell at such tre-
mendous velocity and under such enor-
NOUS pressure. Bessemers first expert
ments were along the line OF hardenif 8
iron for gun uses. Prior to the Bessemtr
hardening process the method Of making
steel was tremendously expensive. Bars
of very pure refined wrought Iron were
subjected to intense heat in crucibles IN
contact with charcoal (cnrbon) from ten
to fourteen days In sugar loaf shaped
furnaces. In some the carbon fused with
the iron, converting 1t into steel. These
bars were melted and hammered to form
"tilt" or Shear" steel. or were melted
and cast, forming cast steel. These pro-
ducts are worth from $500 to $3.50 tom
The prohibtive cost and the difficulty OF
the task OF making any large piece Of
work In crucible cast steel were two con-
dtions that went to make the Bessemer
process successful.

Steel. In the estimation Of most people,

thare are dozens OF varieties. The steel
of the pocket knife is but distantly re-
lated to the steel OF the bridge, or the
steel Of the ship. They are alike In
name only. You cannot have very
strong steel without sacrificing some
toughness and duct!lity. Nor can you
have steel that Will yield and stretch
withou. fracturlng, unless you pay for
1t in the sacrifice of hardness and
strength. The variations between the
qualities of steel practically depend on
the amount of carbon present. The re-
suits are further affected by the amount
OF manganese sulphur silicon. and worst
Of all phosphorus present. Thus the steel
maker and the analytical chemist are. In

But neither from the viewpoint of enor-

Before Carnegie became interested IN

He had left his home In Scotland, which,

years old. Then he passed to the position
