pany, the million-dollar concern in
which Jerome r. Congleton, Archibald
T.. Slingerland and Raymond 7. Per
rim, all of this city, are Interested, will

will manufacture the Sterling type
writer, which is q small machine, used
by students. clergymen and others who
do home t%ypewriting occasionally.
The institution comes from South
Dakota, where it has been manufactur-
ing the machines, but beeause of the
Infusion of Eastern capital it will do
most, if not all, its manufacturing in
Newark. The reorganization of the

possible to manufacture on a larger
scale. Alfred p. Sloan, formerly of Ben,

following letter signed by c. W. Wet

Merritt in November, 1893, when they
we're business associates:
NEW YORK, Nov. %. 1898.
John d. Rockefeller, ESQ, &c Broad
way, New York:
My dear sir: In view of the rumors
that have become current rejecting
upon your treatment of the interests
of the Merritts and myself in the
Missabe enterprise, I feel thai it is due
to you that I should write you, giving
you my personal assurance of the in
justice of such minors
when in December last / concluded
an arrangement with the Merritts and
the associates to assist them in the
extension of the Duluth, Missabe and
Northern Railway Company, my OBJ
iect was simply to secure the trans
portation of the Missabe ores for the
American Steel Barge Company.
The bitter al ticks made by the
Minnesota Iron Company last January
and February upon the contracts,
which l had concluded. made it neces-
rsry in order to protect all interests,
that an investment should be made in
the stock of the railway company, and
that further advances for this pur-
pose should be made to the Merritts.
This contest for The control of the rail-
Wy threw No into most intimate as
sociati.n with the Merritts; and my
Investigations Immediately impressed
upon rle the gre value of the inter
ests which they controlled and the
almost unlimit-G opportunities for
profit which lay open to the barge
company, if i maintained clo7e rela-
tions with the Nissabe Railway and the
mines tributary to j..
II felt that the best service l could
render to the Morritts was to bring
them into close association with you;
and thi. | sought earnestly and sue
cessfally 20 acc lplish.
II am distressed beyond measure
that any question of this kind should
have arisen and equally anxious to do
anything that / can to set it at rest.
Yours very truly,
&c. w. WETMORE''
II have carefully read the above state
ment of facts signed by Mr.. Wetmore
and very cheerfully certify ID their
accuracy.

BIG DITCH TO

OCTOBER, 1912

Washington D. d. Feb 16-Col.
George w. Goethals, chief engineer Of
the Panama canal said today the ca
nal would be completed BY septem-
Der /, 1912, at cost Of ss6ooOO.OOO
This is two years ahead Of all ear.
lier estimates for completion Of the
canal and fully $5O,Ooo.OOO less than
many engineers have figured as the
total cost.
Because Of the early completion Of
the canal Colonel Goethals urged the
house committee on commerce to pre-
pare legislation under which can be
fixed shiEping tolls for passage Of
vessls through the waterway
Colonel Goethals could not say what
would be fair charge, but thought
81 per net ton a vessel would be a
heavy tax on vessels using the canal
but would give the trans-continental
railroads competition on freight from
New York to San Francisco.
It is essential, Colonel Goethals
holds, that the government control
the coal supply stations, so as to pre-
vent private interests by monopoliza
tion Of this supply directly to con
troll the operation Of the canal through
their rates for fuel
Negotiations are already under way
by certain coal companies, he said
to secure the coal lands.
