REBELLION IN STEEL BUSINESS
BRINGS ABOUT CONCESSIONS

New York. Dec. 27.-The rebellion in
the steel trade last week against the
policy of restricting competition and
maintaining rigid prices was expressed
in concessions of 81 per ton or more
in prices of steel bars, structural
shapes, plates. and steel pipe by some
of the Independents in the interior and
by exceptionally low prices on fabri
Gated steel in the eastern territory.
The holiday spirit however, was
against any important expansion in
business.
Place New Orders.
The railroads placed additional or
ders for equipment, including 13s loco
motives, 562 cars, as we'll as 500 min
ing cars and $4,000 tons of rails.
Bridge contracts were unusually light.
but some specifications were received
on contracts. Fabricated orders for
buildings aggregated only 5000 tons,
but bids were submitted on $4,000 tons,
including some government work, but
only small porto nof this is expected
to be closed this month.
Demand For Pig Iron.
The steel corporation has about IS
per cent of capacity active, sixty-four
furnaces being out and others banked.
Independent interests are pursuing the
same policy and some of the furnaces
banked may go out about the first of
the year
The demand for pig iron in all sec
lions has continued light Sales have
aggregated about 10000 tons, half of
which was in the territory east of the
Allegheny mountains. A fair tonnage
of foundry iron is withheld temporar-
lily. Prices have been irregular, but
with the cost limit crossed furnaces
are resisting any further decline

BOARD AND CITIZENS
TO CONFER THIS eve.

Tonight is the night that the com
mittee. which was selected at the re-
cent mass meeting, will meet with the
members of the board of education and
air their views as to what ought and
what ought not to be done regarding
the building of the new manual train
ing school.
The fact is pretty we'll established
that the people want a manual train
ing school. No one disputes that fact.
The people also want a school that
will eventually be the best in the re-
gion. They want it built by degrees.
The following will be the objections
that will be raised by the citizens COM
mittee in it's Interview with the board
tonight.
/. The contract with the architect
should have been let only after receiv-
ing competitive bids.
. 1t is not desirable that Caldwell
& Drake should build the new school.
The board should therefore re-adver-
tise for bids.
3. The cost of the building must be
kept down to $250,0o0.
There promises to be an interesting
ten minutes tonight at the meeting of
the school board when the committee
OF twenty five will make it's formal
protest to the board against the build
ing of the proposed industrial high
school.
The following constitute the commit
tee: W. c. Belman, Charles Friedrich

HAMMOND news
JIMMY HAD
THE DOPE o. K.

There was one man in Hammond
whom the census returns for this city
did not surprise While other people
were figuring Hammond's population
to be anywhere from twenty-fi five to
thirty thousand, James frost, bailiff of
the city court said not more than
twenty-five thousand-wait and see"
and today he says II told you So"
Jimmy's dope was based on what in
formation he had from the thirty and
sixty day polls, the vote that was taken
in Hammond at the time of the annexa-

ton with renewed talk of lower steel
and iron prices, it must be observed
that prices are already comparatively
low The average of the last several
years is above prevailing quotations.
Some further concessions are never
theless reported and the prospect of a
general reduction is more apparent
daily How far it will extend and what
its effects will be are problematical.
Chances Would BE Better.
If the stock market remains quiet or
has a sharp decline in the year, and
money continues to accumulate the
result of slackened trade, the likeli-
hood of railroad and industrial cor

steel market. irrespective of the set
Element of the trust cases before the
supreme court and the freight rate

General Reduction Probable.
A general reauctlon. IN iron and steel
prices probably would be followed by
reimbursement in wages. There have
been rumors that reductions soon will
be announced. but they have not been
confirmed. The number of idle work
men in the steel plants, coal mines, and
in the Conne1lsville coke regions and
on the railroads is increasing. Natur-
ally several months of idleness will
change the labor situation substantial
ly, though the coal miners. who have
been receiving the highest wages on
record have a contract running until
March 81, 1912.

It is estimated that at least 1000
of Gary's population spent Christmas
in a dozen states. That majority of
the boarding house, hotel and restau-

denced by the fact that the eating
places did less business Sunday than
on any other day in the year.

Returns from Thursdays con-

Enough is known, however. to
show that Dicpkson made sur

has not scored a small majority
over the vote Of both his opponents
combined, the margin is very nar-
row, and his election by a big ma

from the District, as far as it can
be obtained up to Friday after
