FRICK SAID TO HOLD OPTION
ON CAMBRIA HAJOItHT STOCK
Will Combine With Penna. Steel Co.,
Say Chandler Brothers.
The long rumored deal whereby tha
Pennsylvania Railroad would dispose of
its majority holdings of Cambria $teel
stock and also ot Its Pennsylvania Steel
shares was crystallized today When Chan
dler Brothers & Co. came out with a cir
cular announcing; that Henry C Frlck, al
ready a large owner ot Cambria, haiL-op-talncd
art option' on the Pennsylvania
Itallroad'a block, and that he proposed to
combine the two big ateel companies.
The announcement, in part. Is as fol
lows: "The principal owners of the Cambria
Steel Company have plans to make that
company one of the largest steel produc
ers in tho United States. H. C. Frlck la
a large owner ot the stock, and ho has
obtained an option on the holding of
the Pennsylvania Itallroad, by which the
controlling Interest in the company iff
held. It is the purpose of Mr. Frlck and
his associates to combine the Cambria
with the Pennsylvania Steel Company, of
which, also, a controlling Interest la at
present held by the Pennsylvania Hall
road. The combination would give theM
Cambria an Interest in shipbuilding, as
with the Pennsylvania Steel Company
would be acquired control of the Jlary
land Steel Company, which has a ship
building plant at Its works at Sparrow's
Point; and It Is understood that it la1 tha
intention, when tho merger Is fOfmOd,, to
develop the shipbuilding end of the busi
ness on a much larger scale than It Is
conducted now."
No confirmation of the deal could be
had from officials of the Pennsylvania
Railroad.
