Lewistown Businessmen Will Show
Progress of Campaign With
Electric Ladder
Special to The Telegraph
Lewistown, Pa., Sept. 21.—Business
4nen of Lewistown have pledged
themselves to raise $30,000 to help
support the Lewistown Hospital. The
campaign committee has decided up
on a novel means for recording the
amounts received daily. Big clocks and
thermometers have been used for this
purpose in other places, but Lewis
town has originated a new idea. There
is at the present time in course of
construction a great white ladder, 18
feet in height and three feet wide
which will be used. The ladder has
thirty steps and each step indicates
SI,OOO. It will be electrically lighted,
white lights indicating the thousands
up to $5,000, which will be indicated
by two red lights. Thereafter all the
amounts except the SIO,OOO, $15,000,
$20,000, $25,000 and $30,000 will be
designated by white lights, those nam
ed to be displayed in red. At the
foot of tne ladder that is being plac
ed against the Odd Fellows building,
there will be a small man bearing a
small white flag reading, "Watch us
climb."
Each day at a certain hour to be
announced later this man will climb a
rung or two higher, according to the
reports of the committee. When he
has reached the top rung, the whistles
will blow, church bells will ring and
there will be a big celebration in com
memoration of the success of under
taking.

Pittsburgh Steel Plants
Ran at 60 Per Cent. Capacity
Special to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, Sept. 21.—1n tli« grad
ual reduction of running time In the
Pittsburgh district and the West, dur
ing the week just ended, there was
the threat that the average production
in finished steel would not be much
better than half time at the opening
of tlie month. Operations in Pitts
burgh district plants at the close, of
the week were at about 60 per cent,
of maximum capacity, while opera
tions further west, and in the lake
regions were slightly less. Eastern
and Southern plants showed a decided
falling off in tonnage. average
output in the finished steel Industry
for the country was about 55 per cent,
of maximum capacity.
It is confidently believed, however,
that the European war has had its
maximum effect on the American
metal industries, and that demand will
gain slowly with the opening of the
new quarter.
As an illustration of the low condi
tion of stocks among consumers of
heavy tonnage products, one of the
trunk line railroads with terminals
here has not In stock a single section
of standard rail for replacement of
main line track. This company usual
ly carries 10,000 tons of standard rails
In stock at its Pittsburgh terminal.
