GIGANTIC RIVAL
 OF STEEL TRUST
Special from United Press


 New York; May 26.-A real rival to the United States Steel corporation comprising most of the independent steel and iron companies in the United States combined with a capitalization of S750, 900 is to be formed at once according ito usually well informed Wall street sources. The plans con- template the formation of a holding company which will take over not only the principal independent steel com panies but several industrial compan- ies of recognized strength. Those who are back of the move include a lead ing firm of brokers and PittSburgerS. Wall street men prominent in such matters are not yet sure of their ground and decline to make any state ment.
 An estimate of the value of the in dependent properties included in the combination is $400, 100000. It is de- clared that the new combinatio does not propose to fight the steel trust but to harmonize the steel trade and do away with "cut threat competition.''

COWLES ASKS BUSINESS MEN
 FOR HEARING
Secretary of Postal Progress League Resents Statements of Burroughs Made Before Association.
He Will Open New England Campaign in Bridgeport - Demands Local Service on Rural Routes With all Mail in One Glass and Other Postal Reforms.

James L. Cowles, a Yale man and Secretary of the Postal Progress Lea gue, was in this city to-day to arrange for the presentation of his ideas on Postal Reform to the people of Bridge port and if possible to the Bridgeport Business Mems Association. MT Cowles' desire to be heard by the bus mess men is especially due to the re- marks made by. MT. Burroughs ot Cleveland, O., upon the subject of pos tai progress, in which Cow1es and ihis work were referred to.
 Mir. Cowles said this morning:
 "Upon the Postal Service more than upon anything else does the general economic as well as the social and po- liticaI development of the country de pend.''
 .'Thus spoke the Postal Commission CT in the 18th Congress in its report of Jan. 2S, 1907.
 "A while ago a certain gentleman named Burroughs of Cleveland, Ohio speaking before the Business Mems Association of Bridgeport, undertook false.
 .dThe Postoffice, he held was a great mistake the extension of it's merchan- disc service would be a grievous in jury.
 II hold the views of the Postal Com mittee of the 59th Congress, and I pray the people of Bridgeport to give me a hearing on this postal program.

s'God Save the King,'' Rang Out from the Wildly Excited Populace That Fairly Mob bed the Reigning Monarch in the Most Enthusiastic Demonstrations of Approval ==Skeets Martin Thrown from His Mount and Horse Badly Injured Though Jockey Escaped Unhurt.

to the weighing room, the acclaim at this bit of, democracy being ear-split- ting. His Majesty, despite all of the efforts of the police and the attaches of the course, was fairly mObbed by the crowd and his immaculate costume showed the effect. But through it all he wore the smile that has endeared him to his subjects and it was plain that he appreciated it all.
 Finally after the horses had left the track the crowd jammed itself in front Of the Royal box and with their Maj esties and the other occupants of the stand on their feet, with the mighty roar, someone started God Save the King" Along the rail and through the crowd the national anthem swept like fire. men, women and children joining in the song.
 Sir Martin started the favorite in the betting, his odds being driven to to 1 before the starting gate went up. Minoru was then to 2 with even money offered that he would not be one at the finish. Jockey Martin was thrown clear off his mount when Sir Martin went down and was unhurt, but it is feared the big American colt is badly injured. Veterinaries have been sent for to examine him.
 The preliminaries. leading up to this great turf event, this morning, will be found on page of the Farmer.
