said to-day:
The Injunction proceedings in New York
concerning contracts for furnishing the
education building relate only TO the fur
niture for the offices and workrooms ana
TO the cases in the state museum. II is
impossible for me to say even approx
matelv how much money is involved, but
I have not supposed that more than one
half of the 100000 appropriated for the
building would be required for that pur-
pose The furniture for the large and more
public rooms is being designed by the
architects. and upon their designs and
specifications bids will be asked That
has nothing to do with the matter now
I'm court.
As To the office furniture about which
my procedure IL questioned. it was be-
ucved that Il would be fairer 10 manu-

perfectly open and no one has objected

GREAT DEMAND FOR
MERCHANT BARS At MILLS

manufacturers and other large users of
steel bars had bought heavily early in
1909. when prices were low, and the
merchant mills were not able to sake
shipments that would satisfy the de-
mand during the first quarter of 1910.
Structural material also commanded
premiums for prompt shipment during
the first quarter of the year. The plate
mills did not get far behind in de-
liveries. The wire mills were taxed to
their full capacity. but chiefly because
there had been heavy speculative buy
ing by jobbers during the preceding
six months, when there a steady
advance in wire prices.
In the fall of 1909 rail contracts ~ese
taken for 1910 delivery to cover six
months rolling at the new Gary mill
and nine months at the South Works of
the Illinois Steel Company. During the
first quarter of 1910 additional con-
, tracts were booked which practically
covered the capacity for 1910 of the
South Works on Bessemer rails and
the available capacity at Gary. While
the Gary rail mill can roll a much
larger tonnage. it has ony been operat-
ed at 10000 tons per month, as all the
finishing departments of the Illinois
Z steel Company needed DllletS ana about
half of the hotel metal produced at
Gary was apportioned to the billet mill.
During the first half of 1910 there
was an actual shortage of crude steel
in the Chicago district. and none OF
the mills here would sell billets. A
few old established forging plants OBJ
tanned their supplies from local steel
| works. but buyers who relied upon the
Z nnan market had dRnand or
| casional offerings from Eastern mills
An Indiana plant which uses rolling
billets, and is located a short distance
from Gary. purchased 10000 tons OF
rolling billets from seaboard mill
