The inside history of the Carnegie Steel Company, a romance of millions . During this time the plant was being operated as the AlleghenyBessemer Steel Company, the former owners not having yetclosed all the old transactions. By July this had been done;and the plant was taken into the consolidation of all the Car-negie works that formed the Carnegie Steel Company. Owing to the disturbing effects of the Homestead strike thetwo Duquesne furnaces, planned early in 1892, were not com-menced until November 5th, 1894. By August of the follow-ing year, 1, 700 men were at work on them; and the first onewas blown in on June 8th, 1896. On October 7th the second A WOXDERFCL RECORD i8i furnace went into blast. In May, 1897, a third furnace waslighted ; and a fourth followed in June. Three of these stacks are 100 feet high by 22 feet at thebosh. The fourth is the same height and a foot narrower. Fornearly four years they held the worlds record; as much as18, 809 tons of metal being produced by a single furnace in amonth.* Then the broom of supremacy, previously flaunted by. Uuquesiie furnaces. the Lucy, and then by the Edgar Thomson furnaces, passed toanother Carnegie stack, that known as Carrie No. 3. It is worthy of remark that when the Duquesne furnaceswere put in operation, with all their labor-saving appliances, they cut the cost of labor per ton of iron produced to one-halfthat prevailing elsewhere. The rivalry started thirty years ago by the Lucy and Isabellafurnaces still persists. Late in 1901 Carrie No. 3 made 790tons in twenty-four hours. A month or so later furnace No. 2of the National Steel Company at Youngstown, Ohio, produced In October, 189S, the output of these four furnaces was as follows: Nc.
