of the Jobbers.
The United States Steel Corporation
has decided to go after the steel job
bling trade and the steel jobbers' profit
throughout the United States, and at
the same time deliver telling blow to
independent makers OF steel, according
to Pittsburg dispatch Its plan was
revealed recently through the letting
of contracts by the Carnegie Steel
Company for q mammoth warehouse
in the heart of the business section ,f
Pittsburg. The corporation will deal
directly with the small consumer Of
steel in any form. something the trust
has never before done.
The Pittsburg warehouse. which is to
be duplicated in Boston, New York,
Philadelphia, Chicago. Buffalo, Cincin-
natl, st. Louis, Omaha, New Orleans
and Dallas. will have power to run
cranes, cold saws. planes, punches, ETC..
SO that the small consumer. who has
hitherto bought from the jobber, can
have his material cut and fitted before
1t leaves the warehouse.
Independent, as well as trust-made
steel, has been handled by jobbers.
