STEEL MERGER WAITS
I.ai-kawanna Not Definitely In $300,
000,000 Combine.
James A Campbell, president of the
Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company,
who is biso slated for the presidency
of the new $300,000,000 steel merger
now in process of formation, eon
yesterday with New York bankers and
others interested in the proponed com
ahich will include the Cambria
Steel Company and probably the 1
? Steel Company. Ns|
tbs latter company are still
lag,
Campbell eald that while only a
little more than 75 per cent of the
stockholders of the Youngitown Com?
pany had yet signified their approval of
the merger, he expect*1. ?cully
all would give their com?:
to learn whether any definite offer had
beer, made to the Lackawanna Steel
Companv were met with evasions by
those who are engineering the n ?
It was understood that a ortce i :
a share has been suggested, but appar
?'ure is not satisfactory to
the stockholders.
Dispatehss from Youngstown to the
il district yesterduy stated the
options taken on the Sheet and Tabs
?Company's stock give sellers the right
to reinvest all or any part of the cash
received in stock of the new ci i,
tion. It was atl ? icady bids
sre being made for these right? ranging
from $14 to $17 a share.
ON THE CONSOLIDATED.
The market on the Consolidated
Stock Exchange changed Its tone more
than once during the ?lay, but the final
tendency appeared to be upward. United
States Steel common, of which ll.tVjO

which has been more or less in evi?

rather a less optimistic view of peace
