LA BELLE IRON WORKS The chief plant of the LaBelle Iron Works is located at Steubenville, Ohio, with others in the Pittsburgh vicin- ity and elsewhere. This corporation represents a capital investment of $20,000,000, divided equally between com- mon and preferred stock. It controls, through subsidiaries, ‘ts own iron ore supply, and largely its coal supply. It has also a by-product plant at which coke is manufactured. LaBelle products are varied, and among them may be enumerated pig iron, slabs, billets, sheet bars, universal plates, sheared plates, grooved plates, skelp, merchant pipe, line pipe, casing, tubing, black sheets, galvanized sheets, formed roofing and cut nails. The Company was originally established in 1852 and was incorporated under the laws of West Virginia in December, 1875. LOCKHART IRON & STEEL COMPANY The Lockhart Iron & Steel Company was incorporated in Pennsylvania on March 18, 1890, and is capitalized at $1,000,000, and has about 1,000 employees. Its plant is at McKees Rocks, and it manufactures high-grade iron, principally by the old-fashioned puddling process, together with a special quality of steel bars. MESTA MACHINE COMPANY The works of the Mesta Machine Company are at West Homestead, on the Monongahela River, about six miles from Pittsburgh. The plant covers more than “wenty acres, all of which are occupied by buildings, yards and equipments. The Company employs about 3,000 workmen, most of whom are skilled mechanics. All machinery is built within the plant from the raw materials, and the only limit as to size and weight of machinery built is that which the railroads can handle. Steel and iron castings weighing over 100 tons have been made in the foundries and finished in the machine shops. The Mesta Machine Company builds a more complete line of heavy machinery for iron and steel works than any other company in the United States. This line consists of gas and steam
