The Cnnibrln Steel Compnnj still has

While no Information tould be had re

which are usuallv well Infoimed tint the
Mldvnle Steel Companj will put out nn
additional Issue of stock, which will bo
offered to stockholders for subscription In
order to provide funs for the pnjment
of Cambria It was regarded as probable
that If n new lsue of stock Is decided 1

It was polntrd out, however, that It Is
(tultp possible Ihev wilt hive the privi

of thp Mldvnlp compnnv
It was pointed out that acquisition of
the Cambria property has placed the Mid

that It now has coal and Iron mines and
