A Gradual ReDiUal of
 s Business tn the South

Baltimore. Dec. is,--tgpscial.) )--Rsports from all parts of the South indicate grad ual revival of business conditions both in industrial and cemmercial lines.
 There ares also signs that railroads are beginning to spend money more freely for improvements. considerable amount of railroad work suspended during the panic of last year, is now being taken up and carried forward. though the aggregete is stiii small as compared with the need for railroad expansion and the improvement of existing iinea. The seaboard Air Line has just received authority to issue $4.eoo.- 900 of receivers certificates in order to car ry out improvement work along it's system from Norfolk to Florida, including rails. roadway improvement rolling stock and betterment of terminal facilities In Texas union depot. with freight terminal train sheds. etc, is planned for Dallas at an esti- mated cost. when carried out. of between s1.seo. 00e and s2.0o0ooo.
 More than s40e.0 900 is to be expended up- on railroad bettermsnts at Temple, Texas. including t2oo.ooo for freight yards, involy- Ing the laying of more than fifteen miles of track, and t75.oD0 for passenger station. About si5o,doo is to be spent upon railroad yards at Hot Springs Junetion. Plans for the building of a number of short lines and extensions are being worked up. Tbess improvements are some of the indications of q revival in construction activities of railroads in the south which are found also in plans for railroad lines between Mon roe, La. and Hope.

Telin Committee To Go Ahead With Hts work, That His Corpora 4fOn Hn Able To Care For
 Itself.

Washington, Dec, 18-'If you protect our competitors, you leave us aooVe protection and believe that the United States Steel Corporation. should make public it's affairs and submit to gov ernment control" was the remarkable declaration Of Judge p. Fl. Gray. chair man of the Board of Directors Of the United States Steel Corporation at the tariff hearing before the House ways and Means Committee today
 "ThIs is radical" he added, but re- member that am not speaking for the steel corporation in saying this"
 Judge Gary, like Charles M. SchWao who appeared before the committee on Tuesday was an admirable witness giving much information and sub' hitting to a severe cross examination. His testimony in substance showed that the tariff Is needed more as protection for the independent steel manufacturers than for the steel cor poration.
 clared that the reduction of the duty on certain steel products would com pei the steel companies to reduce the cost of labor. He said competitors of the steel corporation needed protec- tion but that the corporation could take care of itself.
 Suppose this committee were to wipe out the steel duty entirely; the United States Steel Corporation would still survivor" inquired Representative Champ Clark of Missouri.
 'I cannot say" replied Judge Gary, but am of the impression that if we did we would have & monopoly of the market in this country. I don't think we could make a reasonable and fair profit if the tariff Is put on that basis"

In some sections, particularly the South, holiday trade IS not so good as in 1907, The larger cen ters are doing well and armies of shop pers are in evidence. Small cities re- port demand shifting to cheaper lines. In regular retail business unseasonaDle warm weather has been drawbacN, particularly the Southwest and south as for sometime past. Wholesale trade is quieter and except for some hurry or- ders to sort up depleted stocks. joboers also report less doing. There are some orders for steel rails from railroads and tin plate mills are busleri
 There is more demand for lumber, some of this on account of railroad buy lng, with firmer prices for yellow pine. In the past week there have been evtd- enees of some lines of cotton goods, such as bleached fabrics and gray goods, being offered at concessions, a possible result of the casing in raw material but well known makes of cotton dress goods are firmly held ana closely sold up.

 Mir. Eustis told of the railroadinR days ip Nebraska in the 70s when the passenger rate was s cents per mile and the lawmakers had never dreamed of telling the transportation compa- nies what they should charge. To in- duee settlement of land given them by the government the railroads carried homeseekers and their goods to the country free of charge, said Mir. Eustis and later the roads of their own voli. tion reduced the passenger rate to 4 cents a mile.
