STEEL TRUSTS ANSWER.
Reply is Filed to the Suit Designed te
Prevent the $2oo,coo,ooo Bond
Conversion Plan

Newark n. j., July 1.-THE answer of
the United States steel corporation to the
suit designed to prevent the 5000, 10000
bond conversion plan, brought by j. As
pinwall Hodge, William FL. Curtis and
Bernard Smith was filed today. The suit
is based on the contention that the cor
poration's assets are not equal to the
amount of preferred stock therefore it
cannot proceed as intended under the act
of 1902. The answer, which is supported
by the affidavit of Charles Schwab, states
the assets will amount TO the entire stock
and bonds, common and preferred, or
more than $l,4oo ,o0t,co0 Schwab in his AFT
1idavit maintains his position is such as to
give him knowledge of the actual worth
Of the properties, and lists his estimates
of their value He says, among other
things that the earnings of the corpora
ton during the fifteen months of it's eX-
istencc have been in excess of 10 per cent
of the entire capital stock.

ii WAS q. COMPROMISE

Chicago, July 17.--By agreements
reached between four railroads and
their employees, the great strike of the
freight handlers and Transfers that
has paralyxed the industries of Chicago
for q week is apparently broken.
majority of the strikers are expected to
retrhh to work today.
BY Thursday, according to the pres.
ent outlook, there will be few evidences
of the strike.
Some of the more radical unionists
may refuse to accept the terms az
cepted by representative committees,
but apparently they will be able to
WELD but little influence with the ma
jorty of the strikers.
1t is possible, however, that the radi-
calls may prevent the strike from being
called off ut a mass meeting of the
freight handlers called for today.
Upon the action at this meeting will
depend the attitude of the striking
teamsters. Their national president,
Al Young, ordered them back TO work
today, but If the freight handlers re-
fuse to declare the strike off officially
| some of the Transfers may refuse to
| work.
The four railroads that entered into
, q greements With their men last night
We're the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern, the Chicago and Northwest
ern, the Nickel Plate and the Illinois
Central OF the four, the Northwest
! ern and the Illinois Central accepted
the proposition made upon advice OF
the teamsters' board of arbitration.
The Nickel Plate and TIE Lake Shore
succeeded in getting their men to sign
the scale presented by the railroads
! July 1.
i Consequently neither the freight
handlers nor the railroads claim a vic
| tory. AS the employees of the Lake
Shore were the first TO sign, however,
the railroads are expressing the great
est satisfaction over the break in the
| strike.
The freight handlers will return to
work without having obtained recog-
milton of their union, time and a half
| for overtime or the adjustment of the
, probation period.
On the other hand the freight hand
lers have obtained increase in pay,

procured by the truckers.

The fact remain. however, that the
