Baltimore Sparrows Point to Expand Steel Works
The Maryland Steel Company at Sparrow's Point near Baltimore plans about 4 million dollars in improvements to bolster steel rail and shipbuilding output. A coke oven plant costing around 75 thousand dollars will produce 1000 to 1200 tons of coke daily, reducing reliance on distant Connellsville supplies. The project includes more jobs, 150 new dwellings, and potential further industrial additions as fuel supply questions gain practical attention amid oil developments in the South.
