NEW STEEL MERGER |

viii Rank Next to U. 5. Corpora
ton Capitalization To Be

NEW YORK, Dec. l.--'rho great steel
combination, undertaken by J. j.. Re-
plogle. It Is said. will rank second only
TO tho United States Steel Corporation.
II completed according to present plans.
II is probable that the new corpora
tlon will hsvc n capitalization OF be-
tween S2sO0OO.OOO and 500. 100000. Mr..
Replogle recently, took a LONG step
toward carrying oct his undertaking
when he became a prominent factor IN
tho affairs o. the Cambria Steel Com
pnny through the purchase Of large
block of its stock. The concerns that
Will be merged will probably be the
Cambria Steel Company. the YoJnGF-
l%Wn Sheet and Tube Company and per-
haps some other smaller concerns.
IL u not unlikely. however, that some
shipbuilding concern may be included
Ia the merger. II IL r1inored that thC
Newport News Shipbuildlng Company
the New York ShipbulldinR Company,
Engine Building and Dry Dock Com
pany might be included.
James A. Campbell, president OF the
youngstown Sheet and Tube Company,
was quoted yesterday as saying that
his company's stockholders would vote
on Tuesday upon the selling OF their
holding for $500 share to new cor
poration to be formed as a consolida.
uOn OF Jle cambria, idChlWdntld Aiio
Youngstown companies Mr.. Campbell
denied that there was an intention ot
including the Midvale Steel and ord
nance Corporation, the Pennsylvania
Company or the Maryland Steel Com
pany, although there had been some
talk Of inviting the Republic Iron and
Steel Company to join the merger.
John A Topping, president OF the Re
public Iron and Steel Company, au'
thorlzed the following statement: Mer-
ger rumors concerning the Republic IT.
| and Steel Company and other steel In
terests are without any foundation
whatever. Under existing conditions this
possibilities in this direction are moi
only remote, but, In my opinion, ths
period Is inopportune, considering tht
interests Of the Republic Steel and ireT
Company"
Mr.. Replogle, at the offices Of th'
American Vanadium Company, refused
to answer questions as to whether
thanking syndicate had been formed 4
finance the merger and as to what TIT
companies under consideration are.
Should the proposed $3.50, 100000 o.
/ $500 900 600 concern be formed II would
be a formidable rival Of the Steel Cor
poration and would be considerabl!
larger than the new Midvale Steel ant

Austria's delay in answering our
Ancona note Of November 1S is due
to the fact, we learn by cable from
a "well-informed source" that Aus
tria has searched the seas over in q
vain effort to find among any Of the
squadron Of her navy, or to find in
any place where the Austrian flag
flies over a boat, the submarine
which torpedoed the Ancona before
her passengers had been permitted
to leave the ship. But that missing
submarine may not be so deep a
mystery as it seems in Vienna.
Has Austria thought of searching
FOR her black sheep among some
other peoples fiocks? Has it oc-
Cured to the Austrian admiralty to
keep a sharp lookout for submarines
that may conveniently show the
Austrian colors on occasions, but fly
the German flag, say, as a steady
thing?
Here's a thought that may assist
the Vienna foreign Office in locating
the submarine which under the Aus
trian flag did the same old assassin's
work with the horrors Of which the
civilized world had become so ia
miliar under another flag.
