Journal of Commerce It ia authoritative
ly stated thatthonegotlationa looking to
tho formation of a big stool plato com

also stated that there is llttlo likelihood
at preterit of the projection being revived
The proposed combine was to have a
capital of f25.000.000 to 50,C00,000 aud
and it waB generally supposed nt the I
tlmo tlio negotiations wero in progress f
that tho combination was being organ-1
ized In the Interest of tho United Sutci
Steel Corporation.
This viow of tho cftBo was strength
ened by tho fact that an announcement
was made that Prosidont Schwab.of that
concern, was giving his counsel and
guidanco to tho formation of tho trust.
Tho plants that wero booked to enter
tho trust wero tho Tidewater Steel Com
pany, tho Lukona Iron t Steel Com
pany, tlio Worth HroB., and tho Central
Iron & Steol Company.
When tlio combination was proposed
it was said tliat tlio project was prima,
rily taken up eo as to provont a diBrup
tion of tho pool through prico cutting.
which, it was argued, would result in it
trade war, which would soon effect tho
whole steel industry.
In any event, tlio fact should not bo'

land, two torpedo boat destroyers , for
which they paid 70,000, not Including
artillery, says tho Buona Vista, Argen
tina correspondent of tho Herald.
Tho purchase of theso vessels ia con
sidered hero aa being a violation of tho

sult of Chile's uction lias decided to pur
chaso n battleship of 11,000 tona and baa

publlca until a decision ou tho boundary

Government, to which it has boon re
ferred for arbitration. It ia understood
thut tho Chilean Govornmont wishos to

Nkw Youk, Dee, 4. The financial edl
tor ot tho London Times, in discussing
the forolgn credit of the United States,
dwells upon tho fact that, in aplto of the
largo apparont balanco of trade in favor
of tho Unitod Sta'es against Kuropo, tho
balance has really been tho other way,
because of the borrowing operations ne
cessitated by tho enormous consolidation
and othor schemes In process of execu
tion by American capitalists, says the
London correspondent of tho Now York
Times.
Tho United States, says tho articlo,
owes less abroad than it did but It la still
a debtor country and must remain so for
many years to come, temporary appear
ances to the contrary notwithstanding.
Thero.'ore, New York exchange, except
for a brief poriod, haa been in favor of
London,
Tho writer reviews the conditions pro.
coding and following tho Wall Street
panic last Spring. The article proceeds
"Kndoavora were mado to keep up the
dolusion that the rise had been only
temporarily checked and that it would
soon be resumed, The great prosperity
of tho United States waa pointed to aa
evidence that prices would go much
higher and tho belief that the
United Slates was wealthy in the
eonso that 'tho United Kingdom
and Franco are wealthy, In the possess
Ion of large quantities of cash or securi
ties readily convertible into cash waa
upheld. It does not seem to have oc
curred to those who hold those views
that no nation, however prosperous, can
pass over in two or three years from a
state of being largely dependent on mon
ey borrowed from abroad lo one of being
a large lender to foreign countries."
