Terre Haute, Ind, April li.---When
II. c. Frick, the steel trust magnate,
reversed the action of his associates in
the United States Steel company some
weeks ago and turned down the offer
they had accepted of the Dering COM
pany's coal mining properties, he per
haps thought the Rock Island crowd,
which was behind the Dering company,
would have TO come to his terms, but
they have just completed a deal by
which they Tlace under one control
thirty Of the best mines in Indiana and
Illinois.
The Dering company has fourteen
mines, three of which are in Vermillion
county. H., and two in Franklin county
The others are in Indiana. The Ham,
mond company has four mines in the
Danville district, which were what
was once known as the Kelley proper
ties The Dering company also was
operating two mines near Pana, Ill. /,
which are known as the Burnwell CON-
pany mines. The Oak Hill compsny's
four mines in Vermillion county, Ind,
also TO be in the deal.
The steel trust has been taking OPP
tons on coal lands in the Illinois-Indi-
ana field and wanted the developed
mines because it is the nearest coal to
the Gary plant, whose furnaces will
consume even more than the output of
the thirty mines now taken under con-
troll by Hammond. The trust has made
contract for 800 tons daily with the
Clinton company, which has some
mines in the Vermillion county. Ind. Il,

Decidedly the light of the future is the one gen.

chiefly generated by means of the arc and
incandescent materials, such as the Edison
