The companies interested were no
titled at once by Clerk R. e. Hansen.
At this writing, Wednesday afternoon
none of the representatives have put
in an appearance, but more than like
ly the companies on the loss will turn
the matter over to a professional adj
juster, who will arrive in a day or
two and confer with the board, and
make the adjustment. There is little
salvage in sight and about the only
thing for the companies to do is to
pay the policies in full.
The school board have held several
conferences. since the fire and have
arrived at the conclusion that the
thing to do under the circumstances
is to build a modern and commodious
grade building. They will probably
visit Montevideo, Monticello and Min
neapolis, who it is generally reported
have the most practical, convenient
and modern buildings in the state. Of
course the construction of the new
building will necessarily mean anoth-
er bond issue, but there should be lit
tie trouble on this score. The men,
bers of the board are conservative and
safe business men and large taxpay-
ers, and after they have carefully con-
sidered the needs of the district the
Herald hopes and believes they will
be given what they ask for to con-
struct a building which will be cred
it to the city and district. -.
The problem of housing the grades
for the coming year is giving the
board considerable worry. The burn
ing of the building has developed the
fact that the school spirit in Sank
Centre is at high tide. This is best
illustrated by the fact that a well
known lady, without a child in school,
offered to turn over portion of her
home for the accommodation of one of
the grades. While the board appreci-
ate the motive of this generous offer
it will not be necessary to accept it.
The Herald understands that it will
be possible to accommodate several of
the grades in the basement or gym
nasium Of. the high school building;
it has also been suggested that the
basement of the Congregational
church be utilized; that some of the
grades can be cared for in the lower
rooms of Dubois building, etc. This
matter will not be definitely arranged
until Supt. Aygarn returns from his
vacation, but it can be readily under
stood that the board will desire to
house the children as close to the high
school building as possible. In this
connection it has been suggested, too
that the kindergarten grade be dis
pensed with for the coming year OF
until the new building is completed
The fire attracted large crowd OF
course, and most of them fingered un-
til it was under control. There were
no accidents. The kodak lovers took
snap shots galore of the blaze. The
Herald had hoped to secure asuitable
picture of the building while burning
for this story but was unable to do so

pacity Of the country will be raised sew
eral per cent. before the close Of the
year.
Sales for export were less heavy. but
the decrease in foreign business was fully
compensated for by the larger buying
for domestic account. In fact. the vol
ume OF business was kept within bounds
only by refusals Of the mills to accept
many OF the contracts offered for de.
livery after the frat of July. 1916. As
indicated on Sunday. the munition or
ders called for about $50. 600 tons OF
steel. and AN additional $4,000 tons was
made up OF miscellaneous products which
will eventually go into war service In
Europe.
Thu specific contracts for various prod
ucts hat came to the surface called
for approximately 100000 tons Of steel.
and railroad equipment orders pending
will alone call for 100000 tons addi-
tional. The rail mills booked orders
for an aggregate of $4,000 ton Of stand
ard and light sections. and the car and
locomotive shops together booked orderS
which will require the consumption Of
$4,000 tons OF rolled. forged and cast
steel. Railroad bridge orders were a
disappointment. but the fabricatlng shops
would And II dif1cult 70 execute heavy
contracts because OF the difficulty In
securing structural shapes.
The principal bridge orders included
1900 tons for the Chicago. Indianapolis
and Western 700 tons for the Chesapeake
and Ohio: $50 tons for the Southern
Railway. n 800 tons for the Pennsyl-
vania. The New York Central put out
an additional inquiry for a few hundred
tons OF bridge work. The principal
structural contracts pending include
$500 O n for an East River pier At
New York 5000 tons for the Mckeon
street pier at Philadelphia IS. 900 tons
for section 2 Of route 1922 OF the sub
way system. and 1000 ION for route
3, section 3 The tunnel under the East
River. OF course. will require a heavy
tonnage Of cast iron segments, as pre-
viously reported.
The buying Of pig iron was less heavy
in the lake territory. and fewer large
contracts for steel making iron were
placed in the Pittsbug section. but on the
eastern seaboard, especially In the Phil
adelphia district. there was considerable
activity. especially In low phosphorus and
low grade foundry iron. Probably the
most interesting development was the
necessity for larger purchases OF mall
leable foundry iron and strong coke
and charcoal grades to be used in the
manufacture Of car wheels. Prices ~
low phosphorus iron were up 81 to IS
per ton, with the tendency still sharply
upward. bu, gray iron advanced only
about soc. per ton.
