MIST A REFERENCE LIBRARY

A movement has been started by Mrs. France Byers, librarian of th East

Chicago and Indiana Harbor libraries.

looking: toward the acquisition of

reference library which will be a credit

to the Twin Cities.

To this end she has written to the

heads of the various industries located

in the two towns, asking them for

donations of reference books, or money

to purchase books which will be of

value to their employes, and to persons seeking employment In their plans. Works on mettalurgy, chemistry , and other kindred sciences are especially

desired for the library, and the llbrar

lan thought this might be a good

memoa or securing wnat woum be a

real reference library along: these lines. Thus far a number of letters have been received In response to the com

munications sent out by Mrs. Byers

some of them promising aid, others en

closing checks and still others saying

that the matter has been taken under

advisement. The Green Engineering

company was the first to respond with

a check, and the Interstate was th

first to promise help as soon as the matter could be brought properly to

the attention ofthe right parties.

Mrs. Byers is greatly encouraged and

hopes for good results from her batch of letters.

EAST CHICAGO

COUPLE WEDS

The marriage is announced of Mrs. Edith Wickey Davis and Mr Henry E. Zoeger, both of East Chicago. "While the close friends of the contracting parties knew of the event immediately after it happened, it will be news still to many of their friends and

acquaintances, although the wedding j was two days ago. The knot was tied in Chicago by Hev. R. H. Crowder of Indiana Harbor, the wedding being celebrated at the Hotel Sherman, in that city. Chicago was chosen because of the fact that the bride, . who has been far from well, ever since last spring, when she underwent an operation was advised that it was too mucji

of an undertaking for her to go to Crown Point for the license.

The wedding was a very quiet one

those present besides the contracting

parties being only members of the

New York, Aug. 11. New orders for rolled steel products came to the mills last week at the rate of 35 to 60 per cent, of total capacity. Specifications

on old contracts for steel plates.

shapes and bars were not sufficient to

keep up the general average. The tendency of prices was downward. Concessions were made on marine plates in the east; sheets continued easy, with more mills aggressive for business. Car shops and railroads bought some structural shapes and bars to cover old contracts, but new

buying or .railroad equipment was

light.

Rall orders were confined to miscellaneous small lots aggregating ten thousand, tons. Car orders were Insignificant and locomotive shops re

ceived orders for .only twenty-four en

gines, including ten for the Pere Mar

quette and eight, for the Cuban Central

railways. The Canadian Pacific, how

ever, asked for tenders on thirty en glnes and the Norfolk A Western rail

road on ten. The Lehigh Valley bougtft five hundred steel underframes, and the car builders are figuring on about

six thousand cars, including 3,600 for

the Northern Pacific. The rail In

qulries for 1914 rolling, are estimated at 600,000 tons, but few of euch con

tracts are expected to be closed In the

next sixty days. Bridge Orders reappointing.

Steel building anH bridge orders

were disappointing, the total calling for scarcely nine thousand tons of fabricated shapes. The July orders of

the United States Steel Corporation

subsldaries were 407.961 tons less than shipments, the latter being estimated

at 840,000 tons. Indicating new orders at the rate of 20,640 tons a day for the twenty-six active days in July. Unfilled orders, July 31, were 5,393,356 tons. Sale of pig iron aggregated about one hundred thousand tons in all sections, including about forty thousand tons additional of basic Iron at minimum prices. The higher prices asked for foundry iron confined new business within narrower Jlmits. The feature of the week was the numerous small sales. The July output was sharply curtailed by steel companies and merchant furnaces, but some of the decrease was due to the holidays early in the month.
