Progress of steel works and new mills across the region
The industry reports rapid progress with several new mills nearing operation this summer. Hainsworth Steel tests a 32-inch blooming mill while Homestead Mill adds four-high plate rolls. Duquesne Tube plans to begin by next July and coal gas plants may be erected as a backup. Mills at Park Bros. & Co. operate at full fuel, building boiler batteries and expanding land for a new mill. Pittsburg Locomotive Works and Monongahela Furnace face shutdowns amid coke scarcity. Clintes Rolling Mill and Edgar Thomson Works also adjust. Southside and Millvale plants idle or closing, with large manpower impacts and tight gas supply. Other firms report strong orders and deliveries, including boiler sales, casting work, and bridge contracts.
