«. S. STEEL TRUST TO PAY ITS INJURED WORKMEN Families of Employees Killed Will Ba Pensioned, and Age and Disabil ity Pensions Promised. New York, N. Y., April 19.—The United States Steel Corporation, fol lowing Its recent announcement of a general increase in the wages, came out with nnother announcement of equal Importance to its employees, more particularly to those who are directly engaged In its plants. The corporation has decided to putin force at once a system of pensions and disability payments for depend ents of those killed while in Its em ploy and of disability payments for the injured. Subsidiary companies have for years paid benefits to the families of men killed and to injured workmen, which, Judge Gary said, have amount ed to more than $1,000,000 a year, but the new plan involves no contribution from the men themselves, and is more comprehensive and systematic. A pension system for superanuated and disabled employees is also under consideration, and will be putin force soon. This action was looked upon in Wall Street as another move in the steel corporation's policy of keeping its men loyal and circumventing So cialistic and labor union arguments. All the concessions together, it is thought in the Street, will have the effect of disarming 1 the Central Fed eration of Labor, which has been im portuning the Washington authorities against the Steel Trust, and at the same time, it is predicted, will fore stall employers' liability legislation. The Steel Corporation announced its voluntary decision to increase the wages of its £OO,OOO employees, the added expenditure for tliis purpose being about $9,000,000 a year. It also declared against Sunday work and said that arrangements must be made through which at least 21 hours' continuous rest each week should be afforded employees in the manufac turing plants. The International Harvester Com pany, the dominant interests in which are the same as those in the Steel Corporation, decided this week to in sure its employees in all of its plants against accidents.

Three of the men were hemmed in a corner and burned to death, while the other three made their way to a barred window, to which they clung with streams of wa ter playing on them from the outside. Soon after reaching the window the roof fell in. Ladders were put up from the outside, and lowered Inside, and the men were pulled out with ropes. The other dead firemen were caught by the same back draft as they were working at rne otner ena oi me" building, and were carried down by the roof when it fell in.
