that waa the business OF tho. company

dental statement, which the comrnis-
sion construed into an admission that
the business was not profitable now.
The witness confessed that his COM
pany had very little regard for the well
fare Of rivals In business, saying that
prestige. ability. experience and wealth
would win in the long run in the strug-
gle, and that trusts were an example
OF the survival OF tho At.est in the

He declared that tho tariff enabled
the steel rail trust to mulct the people
to the extent OF 80 per ton and said in
cidentally that Mr.. Carnegie had not

friend Of labor and said that good men
In the employ Of the trust were paid 10
per cent moro than they could get else
where. He declared that his company
had not gone Into combination with
any OF the Independent refincrles. Re-
ports that such consolidation had
been effected were untrue.
Replying to question as to how he
could conduct business. Mt n loss and
still declare dividends, Mr.. Havemeyer
declared laughngly:
"One is an executive act and the 9TH

The witnesc expressed the opinion
that It would be a good plan to expose
the business books to a government In
spector. He closed with a protest
against what he called the tariff dis
ordinations against sugar, rclterat!ng
that 1t was due entirely to the feeling
against combinations In business. "rhc
