STEEL RAIL AGREEMENT.
Makers and Railways Settle Some
Points,

NEW YORK, December 19.-The manu-
facturers of steel rails and the repre-
sentatives of the railroads. who have
held conferences over period Of several
months req riding rail specifications. have
made considerable progress, it was learned
yesterday. toward an agreement on the
style of rail which is to serve as a stand
ard.
AS a preliminary to final agreement
certain features of the new rail have
been agreed upon. and these are likely to
govern the manufacture of rails until
an opportunity is had to formulate COM
plete specific tons.
One Of the things which has been agreed
upon tentatively. 1t was said yesterday
is that the present price of $2S ton will
govern rails manufactured with . per
cent discard of the ingot, and that for
each | per cent additional of discard 20
cents shall be added to the price of the
rails 1t has also been agreed that bet
ter results in the manufacture Of rails
can be had II the metal is more evenly
distributed between the head and the
base of the rail. The manufacturers, 1t
is said, have agreed to adopt such a modi-
f1catlon.
The committee appointed some time ago
by the American Railway Association to
agree upon a new rail is still at work,
and 1t Is it's intention to obtain further
expert advice before recording its final
decision. In railroad circles 1t was said
Yesterday that the chances are that this
committee will not have its full report
ready much before the date of the spring
meeting of the American Railway Asso-
citation.
