They make a specialty of cut No. 1 Scrap for crucibles for steel works. Both partners are native Alleghenians; and this fact, taken in connection with their prices being always put down to the lowest possible figure, has secured them a reputation and trade extending not only throughout this, but all the adjoining counties and Eastern Ohio. |
