Stelco Holdings pursing bid for U.S. Steel, sources say

Article content

Stelco Holdings Inc., Canada’s biggest steelmaker, is pursuing a bid for United States Steel Corp., adding to a growing list of suitors for the iconic American company, according to people familiar with the matter.

Stelco is seeking to purchase the entire company as it looks to increase its portfolio of steelmaking assets and boost its share of the market for supplying metal to the automotive sector, the people said. Stelco is in talks with a potential partner on its bid, the people said, asking not to be identified because the details are private.

Article content

No final decision has been made and Stelco could opt against making a bid, the people said.

Stelco’s interest comes amid Pittsburgh-based U.S. Steel’s review of strategic alternatives, which has coincided with a rebuffed offer from rival Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. The battle for the company could spell the end of what was once the world’s biggest company.

U.S. Steel fell 0.6 per cent to close US$31.23 in New York trading Thursday, giving the company a market value of about US$7 billion. Stelco fell about one per cent to US$27.68, giving it a market value of about US$1.5 billion.

Representatives for Stelco and U.S. Steel declined to comment.

Stelco is the successor to U.S. Steel’s assets in Canada, which chief executive Alan Kestenbaum acquired out of bankruptcy in 2017.

Sussex author Slavens captures Nanticoke Indian history in new book ‘1742’

1742 book cover

A Colonial-era forest is depicted on the cover of ‘1742,’ a book by Christopher Slavens about the Nanticoke Indians’ struggle against the English.

Coastal Point • Submitted

Christopher Slavens is a Laurel resident who serves on the board of directors of the Laurel Historical Society and has researched the history of the Nanticoke Indians, upon whose native grounds and ancestral home much of modern-day Laurel rests. Today’s Trap Pond and local Broad Creek figure prominently in the related story of indigenous unrest and planned resistance.

In Slavens’ new book, “1742: The True Story of the Nanticoke Indians’ Plot to Unite the Tribes, Massacre the English, and Take Back the Eastern Shore,” he takes a deep dive into what historian C.A. Weslager called: “the most important single event in Indian history on the Delmarva Peninsula.” It’s the secret and untold story of a planned Indian revolt to re-capture native lands with an ill-fated tribal council to bring Native Americans together to fight the English.

“I am a local history buff, so it all started here with the location of these tribes,” said Slavens. “Quite a bit of the book deals with the Nanticoke reservation, which was in the town of Laurel in those days, and that is where I live. I then spread out to research other areas and other tribes.”

“The tribes used water to organize themselves. Every Indian village I am aware of from the 18th century historical period was located along a river or creek,” said Slavens. “They had Trap Pond here and Indian River up north, where two major arteries supported their way of life.”

“Broad Creek is the main waterway that goes through Laurel and is a tributary of the Nanticoke River,” he said. “Broad Creek actually flows through Trap Pond,…

H.S. Football: Wyoming Area holds off strong effort from Nanticoke Area

WEST PITTSTON — Wyoming Area combined three quick strikes on offense with repeated, sturdy defensive efforts Friday night to fight off an impressive performance by short-handed Nanticoke Area and remain undefeated with a 35-13 home-field victory in a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2 game.

The Warriors used the win on Military Appreciation Night to improve to 2-0 in the division and 4-0 overall.

Nanticoke Area held the ball for 16:44 of the 24 first-half minutes, but trailed 21-0 when Wyoming Area scored on three possessions that combined to last 1:02. Taking over in Trojans territory each time, the Warriors scored on possessions that lasted two plays, one play and one play.

The Warriors held on downs on a first-quarter drive that started at the Wyoming Area 4 and a second-quarter drive that advanced to their 5.

“If we didn’t stand on those two plays, we’re in a one-score game down the stretch,” Warriors coach Randy Spencer said.

Spencer was impressed that Nanticoke Area was in position to put up such a fight while at less than full strength.

Already going the bulk of the season without quarterback Payton Kepp for the second straight year, the Trojans also were without leading rusher Zack Fox, one of the WVC’s top running backs, Friday. Fox was in uniform, but without a helmet, watching the game from the sideline.

“I want to give all the credit in the world to Nanticoke Area tonight,” Spencer said. “They came in with one arm and two legs tied behind their backs with Payton being out earlier with the ACL – our thoughts and prayers go out to him – and also Fox not being able to play. Those are two really talented players who certainly would have made a…
