 ID THE STEEL TRUST

 Year.

New York, October 5.-E. H. Gary chairman of the board of directors of the United States Steel corporation, today announced that companies controlled by that corporation have acquired on roy atty basis the Hill ore lands In the north west. The price to be paid is $1.65 per ton delivered at the upper lake docks with an increase of 34c per ton each sue ceeding year. The minimum agreed to be mined is 75o, ,00O tons per year until It reaches S,25o 600 tons and thereafter con- tinues on that basis.
 The magnitude of this transaction and its effect on the properties concerned, as well as upon the iron and steel trade of the country, is indicated by the Tact that the Hill properties have been esti- mated to contain from 4O0,OOO,00O to 7O0,- O00,0O0 tons of ore.
 The properties included in this transac- ton are said to be second in importance and extent only to the Lake Superior iron mines already controlled by the Uni ted States Steel corporation, and 1t is said that this deal will furnish the steel corporation with supply of ore for the next fifty years.
 The Hill properties included within this lease are believed to comprise numper of properties owned in part by other ln- terests than those controlled by James I. Hill but the ownership of which was shared with his interests
