Tw o discoveries have lately been
announced that will serve to relieve
apprehension that the rapid increase
of the United States Steel Corpora
tion in the Lake Superior mining
region will eveutually give that
corporation
monopoly not only
of the chief ore supply of the coun
try, but o f steel manufacturing in
its various branches. The Milwau
kee Evening Wisconsin says: “ E x
periment has demonstrated that a
hitherto refractory iron ore of which
there are billions o f tons in North
ern Minnesota can be smelt in an
ordinary cupalo and converted into
pig iron that can be polished like
steel and that will produce a steele
better than Bessemer because it
gives the same tensile strength with
only one third the weight A chem.
ist and assayer is quoted as saying
that the ore can be smelted as
cheaply as hematite.”
The other discovery is reported
as having been made by a Virginia
man, who claims to have found
new process for making steel, of
which be Bays: “ This process will
make a better steel at a cost of about
two cents a pound than any steel I
have ever seen— even the material
that retails at 90 cents a pound.
By its use old steel tools, even those
that havo been burned *nd are
supposedly worthless, can be made
as good as the finest grade.
Just
by hand work I can transform 200
pounds of steel a day from 10-cents
steel to 50-cents steel.”
Such discoveries as these will
beat any trust on earth.
