New York. May ie.-Ihe formal
announcement. made after the close
OF business Thursday. regarding the
merger OF the Bethlehem and the
Laekawanna steel companies. had
the effect OF advancing prices rapidly
today Tor the shares OF both COM
psnies. From the low price OF Thurs
day Laekawsnns Steel had advanced
AZ today's highest. 2l,i points. and
Bethlehem Steel 81.
Until the terms on which new
Bethlehem stock Is 10 be exchanged
for existing Laekswanna Steel shares
have been officially given out, il will
not be possible TO say how lar the
advance in the purchased shares is
warranted. II Is Wall streets habit
10 make such calculations OH the
basis OF existing. market values and
the ratio in which one OF the stocks
is TO be exchanged for another. and
reports OF what the ratio OF exchange
would be were the ground Tor TO-
days rise in the Lackawanna Steel
shares.
Such computation doubtless gives
an idea OF the eSten, TO which a pur.
chasing company has or has not bid
above the open market for the prop
crty acquired. /, usually ignores.
hswever, one somewhat essential ele-
ment in the calculation; the effect OH
the value OF the purchasing COM
pany's existing shares and its large
prospective issue OF new stock 10
make the purchase.

power plant is operating beautifully
and the result is brilliant and steady
light.
1t seems that the operating ex-
penses of the plant will be less than
was at first thought as the 100 horse
power engine does not reouil. as
much fuef as was at first thought if
would.
This plant will furnish power for
the Dig pumps that are to supply the
town with water. The well is now
about 23O feet deep and an abundant
supply Of water may be found at any
time. When this is done Chesterfield
Will be well supplied with both pure
water and good electric current
