Trenton, N 1.-The governments
long planned suit to break up the so
called Steel Trust was begun here
Thursday In the United States Circuit
Court. 1t is the most sweeping anti
trust action ever brought by the De
partment Of Justice.
The government asks not only for
the dissolution of the United States
Steel Corporation. but for the dissolu-
ton Of all constituent or subsidiary
companies which are alleged to have
combined in violation of the Sherman
law to "maintainy OF attempt to main
tain monopoly of the steel business .
There are 1851 subsidiary corporations
named as defendants.
Is J. Piermont Morgan, John D. Rookie
Teller, Andrew Carnegie, Charles M
Schwab, George w. Perkins. E. H.
Gary, John d. Rockefeller, Jr., Henry
G. Frick, Charles Steele, James Gay
ley, William H. Moore, J. H. Moore,
Edmund G. Converse, Percival Rob
erts. Jr., Daniel G. Reid, Norman B.
Ream. P. Alb. Widener and william
P. Palmer are named individually as
defendants.
Sensational Charges.
The steel corporations lease of the
Great Northern Railways ore proper
ties which the directors of the steel
company Thursday formally decided
to cancel is alleged to be illegal. This
action of the directors was. taken but
few hours before the filing of the
bill The goaernment acknowledges
that it was advised Of the steel cor
poration's intention in this respect,
but states that under the terms of the
lease no cancellation would be effec-
tive until January /, 1915, and there
is no limit upon the amount Of ore
that can be taken out in the meantime.
Sensational allegations fairly topple
over each other in the governments
petition, which is an equity proceed
| ing praying for injunctionss to estop
continuance of the alleged monopoly
and such other relief as the court may
grant. The steel corporations acqui-
sition OF the Tennessee Coal and Iron
Company during the panic Of 1908 is
declared illegal and scathingly criti-
cised

Washington. Unable to do much
more than has been done toward
maintaining q naval force in the upper
reaches Of the Chinese rivers because
of the lack Of. Iight-draft gunboats,
Admiral Murdoch, commander-in-
chief OF the Asiatic station, has de-
cided to strengthen the American
naval representation at the deep
water treaty ports. Therefore, he has
ordered the coast defense ship Mont
Grey and the double-turreted monitor.
Monadnock to proceed at once from
Manila to the Chinese coast. The
Quiros, the last Of the small gun
boats left at Manila, also has been or
dered to China and viii probably go
up the Yangtse River. These addi=
tional ships are to look solely after.
the interests of Americans and
Foreigners.
Ambassador Bacon cabled from
Paris that the French government had
decided that 1t did not see the present
necessity for joint action of the for
eign naval forces In China. This was
doubtless fh reply to the state depart
ment's suggestion to various Ameri-
can Ambassadors and Minister'S that
they learn the purposes Of the govern
ments to which they were accredited
In dealing with the situation in China,
and the French response is exactly in
line with the desires of the State De
partment at this stage.
The State Department was informed
through the Chinese legation here Of
the appointment Of Yuan Shi Kai to
the supreme command of the military
movements In China, confirming the
press reports.
YuanEShi Kai, at whose instigation
negotiations between the government
and insurrectionists are about to be-

move to force acceptance OF his plans
for Infringing about peace
