Tho chairman of the Foreign Trade Council Is James A Knrrell. presldt-nt of tho United States Steel Corporation. Mr. Johnson declared yesterday that the new committee will represent the Government In .o-operntlng with the National Trodo Council. The chairman of the committee had not beerf-plckcd. he mid, nor did he know when It would meet to organize. Coincident with the news of the fore going plans quite a stir was created mons Eastern steel men by Inquiries foi steel for export and the realization that the Pacific coast Is buying the domestic production. Heretofore structural ma terial for Ran Francisco wae brought across the Pacific, but the war has halted this and the supply is now being taken from United States mills. So far the foreign Inquiries have not developed into anything sufficiently tan gible to be called a demand, but never theless they are looked upon by steel men as highly encouraging. A decrease Is shown In sales for September so far as compared to the last half of August, but It is believed there will be a gain In the remainder of the month that will put the output ahead of AuKUtt. Interest also has been awakened in plK Iron by the foreign inquiries, but it Is believed there will he no activity In this line untl sfel shows Improvement A furnace man nave It as his opinion that either prospects of peace or of a long war would stimulate the steel trade 1 Of all the letters only four remain. Tho Tlmmons glrlb tore them up as soon as thev arrived anil said nothlnir about thm. Finally, Irritated, It 1h believed, by the failure to mouse the girls to showing thry had received the letters, tho mysteri ous writer addressed Mr. Tlmmons. The first note reached him In December nnd the second In January. Both warned him that his daughters should be watched and contained vicious nci.usatlons. For somo time Tlmmons tried unsuc cessfully to find who was writing the letters, nnd then offered the reward of SCO. That failed, nnd he turned to the postal Inspectors. At flmt It wn believed that the letters were Inspired by Jealousy, and on that assumption several Sharon Hill young womn were flosely watched. When sus plc on fell on Mls Stahl, however, that theory was discarded. ThT has never been "a man in the case." according to the Investigators. A youth who was boarding with the Stohls was sent nwny the day after McVlcar questlonod their daughter. In order that suspicion could not be attached to her thiough h's presence. It Is said he called twice at the Tlmmons home. "I am old enough to be his mother, anyway," Miss Stahl declared when his name was hrmichi into the questioning. Tho case Is a mystery to Mr. Tlm mons. the father of the girls, who re ceived the letters OFFERED REWARD FOR AUTHORS, Mr. Tlmmons offered a reward of I'M when he first learned the letters were coming Into his house, but efforts of private detectives to find who was writ ing them were futile. In May he appealed to the postal In spectors, and Mathew McVlcar set out to learn the Identity of the writer. "It was a process of elimination that led us to suspect Miss Shaw," said Mc Vlcar today. A list of persons who might have wiltten the letters was prepared, but It was cut down until only Miss Stahl remained. This was last May. The evidence on which Miss Stahl was hold yesterday was secured by McVlcar 011 June 1. That day he went to see Miss Stahl at her home. Miss Stahl Is a woman of XI. She and her mother and a younger brotner have lived In a small double house at Sharon Hill for ten years. The accused woman Is a dress maker, often employed by wealthy Phlla delphlans and residents of the suburbs. McVlcar found Miss Stahl at home and told her she was suspected of having written the letters to the Tlmmons girls. Sh denied It. "Wh, Just to prove that those letters wero not mlno I'll wtlte you a specimen," she told McVlcar. He had her copy two of the notes sent to Miss Helen Tlmmons. Stlss Stnhl was very nervous while Mc Vlcar questioned her, he says, and denied repeatedly that fide had had any hand In the poison pen letters.
