BIC STEEL MERGER
PRACTICALLY SURE
Youngstown Concern to Have
Book Value of $180,000,-
0OO-Stock Jumps.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, December 20.
Evidence of the appreciation of
financial and investment interests in
connection with the proposed pur-
chase of the Brier Hill Steel Com
pany by the Youngstown Sheet and
Tube Company was shown today in
tho enhanced prices of the stock of
both companies in local dealings.
Sheet and Tube stock sold at 73 yes
terday before the announcement by
James A Campbell, its president, that
the merger was likely to be consum-
mated. Today no stock could be OBJ
tanned under II. Brier Hill, which
sold at 1879 a few days ago, now can
not be obtained at IS.
The higher levels are said to be a
reflection of the general opinion in
steel circles here that the earning
uower of the combined properties will
be considerably increased by the
broadening of facilities and the
economy of overhead expense.
The enlarged sheet and tube prop
erty will be the largest Independent
company in the country, with the ex-
ception of the Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration. 1t will have a pig iron ca
pacity of 1,350,000 tons annually, and
steel production of 2,200,0 900 TONS with
facilities for making practically a
full line of finished steel products
The book value of the combination
will be approximately s1s0,00o,000.

L|BERTYS FIRM;
OTHER ISSUES GAIN
Bond Market Strong, With
Exception Of Heavy Sell
ing in St. PauIs.
BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, December 20.--The
railroad bond market was featured
today by another sinking spell in st.
Paul issues. Dealings were on large
scale, especially in the convertible
4las and the debenture As, and with
consequent declines in price. The SELL
ing seemed to come from two or three
sources. Probably the cut in the Great
Northern dividend further alarmed
holders of ST. Paul bonds already con-
cerned over the eteady decline in quo
tations.
New York CentraI's Gain.
New York Central 31.s gained a
half point. selling on 4.60 basis.
This is one of the very highest grade
railroad bonds on the list, secured by
first mortgage on the system from
New York>to Buffalo. AS rule only
savings banks and trustees are pur-
chasers of bonds like this one.
Northern Pacific prior lien As were
also firm Here again you have a
first mortgage on the system, selling
on about a ~ per cent basis.
Speculative issues to show a little
more strength included the Erie d.
IS and the Alton IS. The latter bond
has held very Rrm'y around its pres
ent price Of So or SO, Notwithstanding
the receivership. Missouri. Kansas
and Texas adjustments and Seaboard
Air Line adjustments were also up
a little.
International Mercantile Marine Gs
gained Il point. Because of the de-
preston in the shipping business and
the doubt about the dividend on the
preferred stock the bond has been
selling very low for a long time, al
though the security seems ample.
Foreign List Quiet.
There was no particular feature in
the foreign list. The United King
dom issues were heavy and Serbian
SIS lost n point. The explanation by
MIR. Lamont last night as to the i'm
possibility of "A German loan under
present conditions had no adverse
effect, however. as the reports earl
ier in the week that such a loan was
about to be negotiated had had no
favorable effect. Nor did the op-
position shown in Congress toward
the prohibition of tax exempt securi-
ties have any effect on the municipal
bond market. Tax exempt securities
We're still in great demand.
The liberty 3l.s We're active and
the liberty issues were firm. but the
advance was greatest in the tax ex-
empt issue.
