WORK OF THE WORLD. ..

THE GREAT STEEL CRUST.

BY L. CHIOZZA MONEY, M.P.

1 have received some interesting particulars of the lands, railways, mines, etch now owged by the United States Steel Corporation, which controls about one-half of the entire iron and Keel industry of America, and has therefore as erent an undertaking as the entire iron and steel industry of the United Kingdom. The trust, through one or other of Its many subsidiary companies, possesses. 166,000, acres of coat lande, producing steam, gas, and coking costs of good quality. It has also 1,000 acro's of natural gas-producing lands, with 355 miles of pipe-lines to convey this valuable natural product. The railways owned by the various companies are of a total length of 1,270 miles-almost the length of the railways of Belgium. The lake fleet of the trust is com posed of yo steel ships, which, with barges, carried in 1909 nearly 12,000,000 tons of iron

TRUST RECORDS.

All the subsidiary companies or trusts which form the mammoth organiinilon welded by Morgan appear to be doing well In March, according to the Iron Age, 100 records were broken by the various companies. The Ame rican Sheet Plate Company produced 56,848 black sheets and 21,689 galvanised sheets the month, The Homestead Steel Works March production amounted to 463,915 tool The Duquesne Steel Works produced 327,644 tops; and so on, through a great mass of detail, These facts will help to convey some idea of the kingdom of industry which is concentrated under one management, and of the enormous power which is exercised by its managen. They are also useful as serving to remind us of the conditions under which industry must, Rooner or later, come to be carried on, I do not think we need fear these combinations, for the element of popular control must some day be introduced. When that comes about wo shall arrive at economic production and, abova all, steady and assured employment for the units of industry, It is clear, I think,,from the|| records of American trusts, that it is not beyond the powers of man to control and co-ordinate industry and business on a gigantic scale. When financial jugglery is divorced from com bination, and unnecessary competition elimi- sated, not to coerce the public, but for the ,public good, we shall arrive at a cheapness in

which there will be no element of nastiness.

NEW PIG-IRON RECORD."

Talking of iron, it is worthy of note that the American pig-iron production in March beat all records, reaching, for anthracite and coke pig-iron together, but not including charcoal iron, 2,165,632 tons, or at the rate of nearly 16,000,000 tons per annum, This is about three times the production of the United Kingdom.

"STEEL FAMINE,"

|

|

|

In spite of record productions, the American demand, stimulated by the San Francisco dis aller, has caused a scarcity of structural steel supplies, in America. Many new plants pro projected. The Indiana Steel Company, also a branch of the Morgan Trust, is to spend £15,000,000 on a new steel plant, which is to cover a square mile of area. The works are to make a new town, and the new town, not yet bait has been named "Garey," after the prescat chairman of the trust. The Iron Age says that the new undertaking will consist of 16 blast furnaces and 84 open hearth furnaces to "axy nothing of finishing mills, rail mill. structural mills, and plate milfs. Probably a larga bridge works will be added.

ON A LARGE SCALE.

I like the capacity of the Americans to thick in this large way. When, if ever, shall wo possess it? Our statesmen, our business men, are all terrified as 1000 as six figures ate men- tloned. The idea of spending £1,000,000 an swell-thought-out and complete undertaking would simply excite derision kere. We like to do these things a little bit at a time and with- out a definite plan. That is how, to naind a familiar instance, we tackle the problem of London traffic. We tinker it so slowly that traffic outgrows our plans even as they are made. The idea of boldly driving new roads and planning the London that must be appals. us. We let the thing drift ånd drift, and hour- ir it becomes more difficult,

A HISTORIC BUSINESS

THE INTERESTING STORY OF MUIX'S DIFFICULTIES.

London, April 19-To realize the sensation which has been created in England by crisis in the fortunes of the famous Meux Browery, in which Ford Avicabury, Lord Tweedmonth, Lord Essex, the uke of Roxburghe and number of other peers of the realm and Jargo stockholders, it must be known that is the oldest and most important brewery in London, and that it removal from Tottenham Court Road to the remote rubarb of Wandsworth, rendered necessary by the writing dows of the capital to the tune of $4,000,000, means the disappearence from the centre of Londor of one of the latter's most familiar landmarks. Founded before King George III. came to the throne, it reached the height of its fame at the nineteenth century, when Henry Meux, a cousin of the great Lord Brougham, made a striking appeal to popular attention and to popular thirst, by constructing a colossal vet, 22 feet high, and holding 1600 barrels of "Meux" The idea that a million people could have marched in single file past the vat and sach taken from it a pint of porter before the contents were exhausted struck popular fancy. In 1814 the vat burst, and the mighty tide of porter, pushing out into Tottenham Court Road and Oxford street, made tenement house walls collapse, swept people off theirfeet and drowned eight fortunate mortals, while hundreds were rendered hopelessly intoxicated by their immoderate drafts from the tidal wave of beer. The catastrophe was the talk of the town for weeks, and Parliament actually took cogniunce of the matter by paning a vale, authorising the return to Henry, Moux of the whole amount of the duty which he had paid on the porter thus lost. In 181 King William IV conferred a baronetcy upon Henry Meux, thus inaugurating the many titles which have since been conferred by the Crown upon what is known at the "Beerage." The only survivor of the Mens family is the widow of the late Sir Henry Meux, a rather eccentric dame, who formerly figured in the corps de- ballet of the Griety Theatre as Sucie Langdon. She is the largest individual owner of slack in the brewery. When her husband died he left everything to her, including his racehorses (which she continues to run under the game of Mr. Theobald), and Theobald's Park, a magni ficeat country seat near London, which is por trayed by Sir Walter Scott in his novel, "The Fartones of Nigel"
