Steel Company, “’liich “’111 Have to
Come In.
New York, Feb. 8.——The Moore Broth—
ers of Chicago, whose genius for or--
ganization. resulted in the formation
of the tin plate trust, are now engageq
in effecting the most gigantic consoli-
dation of financial interests ever at—
tempted.‘ Tliis is a combination of all
the iron, steel and tin companies in
the country with a capital of four hun-
dred million dollars. ‘
When the Federal Steel Company
was organized by Judge Gary of Chi-
cago, backed by the resources of J. P.
Morgan & Co. of this city, its two hun-
dred million dollars of authorized capi—
The company
issued less than one hundred million of
its authorized capital, however. and
the story went around that Andrew
Carnegie, the only considerable iron
power not in the trust, would be invit-
ed -to take the other one hundred mil-
lion dollars of Federal steel stock in
exchange for his enormous steel'and
iron 'works in Pennsylvania. Mr. Car-
negie, however, was in no hurry- to
embrace the trust, and at first, it is
said, he flirted with the Federal Steel
people a little, Then finding that they
were buying up some iron mines and
negotiating for the entire product of
others he himself entered ’the field or
active competition for iron ore.
In this way, it is alleged, he found
the Moores of Chicago very useful, as
the tin plate trust had already made
many contracts with owners'of iron
,mines. Accordingly a practical alli-
ance was formed between the tin plate
people and Mr. Carnegie. The method
of the organizers was first to make
arrangements for the entire product of
a mine for a period of two or three
.years. Then having thus removed the
.min-e from the ranks of their enemies,
.they next proceeded to secure, if pos—
,1 sible, a. controlling interest in it by the
purchase of securities- The result of
this activity has been a great develop-
ment of iron mining and few; if any,
mines in this country, except in Birm-
. ingham, Ala, which are not under the
cOntrol of either the Federal Steel trust
or Carnegie and, the tin plate trust.
Now Mr. Carnegie is prepared for
the organization of a four hundred
million dollar steel and iron company
to turn the tables on the Federal Steel
company. He permits them to come in
or stay out, as they please, but wheth-
ier they come in or stay out. Andrew
'Carnegie and the tin plate trust will
be the formidable interests with which
they will have to deal, either as friends
or foes. In other words, instead of be-
ing absorbed by the Federal Steel Com—
pany, Mr. Carnegie proposes to do the
absorbing himself.

The call, which explains more in do.
(nil the prospective work of the gath—
ering, is in part as follows: “ImpreSs.-
ed with the necessity for a thorough
reorganization of our state militia ser-
vice as discussed by members of the
National HarbOr Defence Convention
at Tampa in 1896, I have deemed it
proper to issue a call for a national
convention in this interest to assemble
at Tampa, Fla., on the 8th day of
February, 1899. The object of this
convention will be to ‘discuss and sug-
‘ gest methods for placing state troops
on the most effective footing. Ques-
tions relating to arms, equipment, tac—
tics, clothing, food and transportation
will be considered and discussed by
experts. Special attention will be
,given to the subject of camp sites, san-
itation, and all precautionary measures
that modern science can suggest to in-
sure the comfort and health of troops.
Boston Suit; Stopped Again,
Boston, Feb. 8.-For the second time
!the city teaming fraud case has been
taken from a jury.’ The first time it
was because of a newspaper headline.
Yesterday it was because Assistant
District ‘Attorney McLaughlin charged
that Charles H. Milliken, a juryman,
had received money as a bribe in_ the
course of the trial. Mr. McLaughlin
produced'witnesses in support of his
assertion and Judge 'Bond took the

How to Wash Velveteen.
Velveteen, it treated right, washes
to perfection. Fill an enameled—not
zinc—bath three parts full or hot wa-
ter, then shred in finely as much
white curl soap as will make a very
soapy lather; take the material to be
washed—if a dress, it should be un-=
picked, though this is not absolutely
necessary—and shake it backwards?
rind forwards in the water until the
latter becomes dirty. ‘ 1‘;
The velveteen must not be rubbed,j
merely shaken to and fro through the:
suds. When the water begins to cool 2
throw it away and repeat the same
process, shredded soap and all with
some fresh water, and while you are'
preparing the second lot of lather,
hang the dress or- material over a
clothesline; do not leave it in a heap
Repeat the shaking until the dress is
thoroughly cleansed. Then rinse out
several times in tepid, and finally, in ‘
:old water. 'Do not wring it. Stretch
it out, if in the material across two_
clotheslines: it‘ a dress, pin it out to;
its full extent by the hem, using for;
the purpose pins. not clothes pegs. 4
It will take :l day or two to dry, and ‘
when dry should simply be stretched
and knocked betweeni’the hands to
misc the pile. or it can be ironed on'

it is only velveteen. not. ve‘vet. which

Quaker Courtship.
‘Tfartha, doest thee love me?” asked
a Quaker youth of one at whose
shrine his heart’s fondest feeling had
been offered up.
“Why, Seth," answered she, “We
are commanded to love one another.
are we not?”
“All, Martha, but doest thou regard
me with that feeling the world calls
love?”
- “I hardly know what to tell thee.
Seth. I have tried to bestow my love
on all; but I have sometimes thought.
perhaps, that thee was getting more
than thy share.”
