crop of the Pacific ocean Is to be harI
vested by powder company to oh
tam an ingredient used in making
ammunition for the warning nations
OF europe 1t was announced TODAY.
The statement is made that one of
the largest manufacturers of powder
in the United States has decided 10
spend a large sum in this enterprise
IN order to obtain the chloride Of
potash 1t needs to fill its war orders
ana which 1T can no longer obtain from

.SCHWAB CLOSES
P. S. co. DEAL
Merger of Bethlehem, Pennsyl-
vania Steel and Thomas
Iron Co. Imminent

Philadelphia, Oct. 15.-Negotiations
Company to the Bethlehem Steel Cor
.poration have. been concluded. The
terms passed upon by the directors of
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
! az their meeting on Wednesday met
! with the approval of Charles M.
! Schwab, president of the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation, This information
was obtained yesterday from one Of
the interests which is party to the
! transaction.
This morning the directors of the
PENNSYLVANIA company held a meeting
! a Broad Street Station to give their
| approval to the deal.
| After the Pennsylvania Railroad
| board meeting on Wednesday Vice
I President Tatnall went to the New
York residence of Schwab, and there,
In the presence of the latter's attorney,
the final agreement was reached.
The delay in putting through the
sale of the Pennsylvania Steel which
was framed up in detail on October 2
at a conference held in Broad Street
Station between Schwab, e. T. Stotes
bury, representing the steel company,
and Henry Tatnall, representing the
railroad company, has been due to
several reasons. First of all was the
difficulty of bringing Schwab to agree
TO terms suitable to the Pennsylvania
Railroad, which company, through
ownership of the Pennsylvania com
pany, holds large majority interest
III both the common and preferred
stocks of the Pennsylvania Steel Com
pany.
The next step was to satisfy the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
IRON company, which holds about one
third the amount of Pennsylvania Steel
stocks as does the Pennsylvania com
pany.
FURTHER delay was caused by the in
sistance of the Pennsylvania Railroad
that all the stockholders of the Penn.
SylNania Steel be given the opportunity
to sell their shares to the Bethlehem
on the same basis. When this was
hnally agreed upon the question came
up as to the guarantee of the securi-
ties OF the Bethlehem Steel Corpo-
ration to be given in exchange for the
PennsylVania Steel shares.
Original Terms
AS originally outlined the terms
were as follows: The Bethlehem was
TO pay par, or 500 share, for every
snare OF Pennsylvania Steel preferred,
and $50 share. or half of par, for
every snare of the common. Payment
was 10 be made in per cent bond.
but the bonds given for the common
STOCK were not to bear interest fol
five years.
Some minor changes in details may
nave taken place to satisfy the various
interests concerned. but the best in
formation is that the Bethlehem Steel
VIII take over Ill of the Pennsylvania
steel shares and deposit them in trust
as security for the new issue of bonds
put out to pay for these shares. In
lnaI case the new security would be a
collateral trust bond or certificate.
Actual transfer of the Pennsylvania
steel shares has rot yet been made TO
the Bethlehem, but the transaction will
De completed within few days. When
that is done. then the Cambria Steel
deal will be taken un for adiusfr,ant

Fusillade of Shots
The scuff1ing occasioned by the fight

committee room adjoining, but no ar

fired the first shot or who kept it up.
The setting of the affair was dra-
matte. At the intersection of King
and George streets, where is situated
the building where the committee was
to meet, a large crowd had gathered.
The demeanor of those there had led
the chief of police to place large
number of officers there. Up to the
