Third St. RAILROAD NEVS P.R.R.TOSPEND BIG RELIEF FUND I Plans Under Way For Dis bursement of SIOO,OOO For Soldiers' Dependents Philadelphia, July 14. Plans for the spending of SIOO,OOO in relief work among the families of Pennsylvania Kailroad employes who have gone to th« border with the National Guard are being prepared by S. C. Long, gen eral manager of the company. It was said at the railroad's publicity bureau that the dispensing of the fund prob ably would be turned over to a com mittee, but that no program of organ ization or operation was ready for an nouncement. The Pennsylvania Railroad an nounced on June 19 that any employe who was a member of the National Guard or who was in any other way liable for military oi naval service would be given leave of absence from the day he was mustered in until he was mustered out. No provision was mads, however, for the paying of the salaries of the 803 citizen-soldiers who are employed on the Pennsylvania's lines east of Pittsburgh. It was to meet any cases of distress that may arise from the stopping of the pay envelope that the company's board of directors voted an appro priation of SIOO,OOO. Since the troops left for the border the company's offi cials have been collecting information concerning every one of their guards men employes. There is a tabulated list containing each guardsman's age, the difference between his pay In the army and in the company's service and the number and age of his dependents. Needs to Govern Distribution The SIOO,OOO fund will be distributed according to the needs indicated by the list and by investigation.

President E. G. Grace and other offi cials of the Bethlehem Steel Company, after an inspection of the recently ac quired Steelton and Maryland plants. President Grace announced that the BetllJhem company now employs 65,- 000 men and gave a nummary of the Improvement program for the various plants. Said he: Was Good Bargain "We have received more than we thought we would, and are well pleased with the organization and men employed. The properties will be designated as the Steelton Plant and Maryland Plant of the Bethlehem Company. Bethlehem will be featured In every way. Men are now busily engaged in changing the name on the rolling stock of the acquired proper tier to the Bethlehem Steel Company. "The invoices will all bear the name Bethlehem Steel Company. All of the orders for the different plants will be distributed from a central office, which, of course, will also be located at Bethlehem, with the executive, treasury, accounting, sales anct pur chasing departments. The manufac turing orders will be distributed from JULY 14, 1916. South Bethlehem. I might add, too, that the Improvement program for Bethlehem will continue, all reports to the contrary notwithstanding. Spending Million a Month "We are spending a million dollars a month at Bethlehem in extensions and will continue that policy as plan ned. The four blast furnaces that wc contemplate erecting in the Soucon plant will be built as quickly as pos sible, and they will be in keeping with the present style of furnace. These furnaces will cost $2,500 apiece. We have, however, some difficulty in se curing the help to carry along the contemplated Improvements. Seventy millions of dollars, all told, will be spent at the Steelton, Maryland and South Bethlehem plants, divided as follows: "Bethlehem, $30,000,000; Maryland, $30,000,000; Steelton, $10,000,000. "With the acquirement of the Steel ton and Maryland plants, the Beth lehem Steel Corporation interests em ploy 55,000 men, 25,000 of whom are employed at the plants at South Beth lehem and Redington. E. W. Wood, former president of the Maryland Steel Company, became general man ager of that plant, and Quincy Bent, former assistant to the president of tho Maryland Company, becomes gen era! manager of the Steelton plant. Business Never Better Asked how the steel business was In general, Mr. Grace was very optimis tic, and repeated the statement made two years ago, that the steel business was never better. "Just a few days ago," he said, "we receiv :d an order from the Russian government for 60,000 tons of seven ty-pound rails. Had wc the facilities, we could have received a much lar«r»r shure of the contract, but with the orders now on hand we will bo busy until June 15, 1917." With the new properties the Steel Company will have three rail mills in 11 continuous operation. The wonderful | growth of the Bethlehem Steel Cor poration is shown in comparative I statistics as follows: In 1911 the net manufacturing profit was $4,605,411, and in 1915 it was $28,782,784. The total Income in 1311 was $4,792,714, and In 1915 it was $24,821,008. Deaths and Funerals FRANK W. SHAFFNER Relatives in this city have received word of the death of Frank W.
