COKE TRADE is FLAT
IN WEST Virginia

B. Frank oyerholt, OF scOttdale, was
in town last evening on his way home
from a trip into the Falrmont district,
where he has coal interests. He re-
ports the coke business flat, but tins
coal business good. The latter has
materially improved and prices have
recently advanced Z cents per ton.
The business which is most active
in that section, however, he says is
the action being brought against the
United States Government for dam.
ages to riparian lands by the construc'
tion OF the upper MOhongahela river
locks. The dams have backed up the
water and inundated portions o.
ground. The cases have all been de
cided in favor Of the compliments in
the lower courts, and 1t is thought
that the claims will eventually be
paid in full.
The cases are practically all In the
hands OF single law firm, which Will,
1t is estimated, make a handsome for
tune in fees.-ConnellsVille Courier.

FAlRMoNT BUILDING AND
LOAN ASSOCIATION

One Of the Institutions that is help
ing Falrmont to build up is the Fair
mont Building and Loan Association,
which was organized during the past
winter.
Itrhad long been felt that Building
and Loan Association was badly neea'
ed in this community in order to en-
able the wage Garner to secure his own
home. The Building and Loan Asso.
.iation also provides the best method
yet discovered for the wage earnerto
save money, the small weekly pay
nents appealing to the person OF small
means. Being actively directed by
the strongest and best business men
Of the city 1t is not surprising that
the association has grown rapidly.
A statement Of its growth is as FOL

Chairman Stanley declared that the
committee would summon any one, be
| he president Of the United States, OF
j. Pierpoht Morgan, in order to ascer.
Itain how certain railroads owned by
the steel trust were able to declare
enormous dividends on small capitali-
cation. 1t Is probably former Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Mr. Morgan will be
asked to appear before the committee
when 1t holds sessions in New York.
"The chairman and this committee,
. said Mr.. Stanley, want to know how
i.and why certain railroads are able to
pay 100 or $50 per cent. dividends and
put $4,000, 900 Or S5i000,O0O into their
surplus when their capitalization is
only $4,000,0OO or $5,OOO,0OO. That
may be all right and it may not. We

other person within the puryiew Of

Summons for Roosevelt.
II think we ought to summon both
those persons" said Representative
Young, of Michigan, a member Of the
committee.
:1'You mean the ex-president of the
United States, don't you?" asked
Chairman Stanley.
yes, Of course Mr.. Young replied.
James Gayly former vice president
OF the steel corporation, is the only
corporation witness under subpoena
to appear here at present. Several
witnesses are to be heard and the
committee will then. adjourn until the
wool bill is passed and meet later in
New York. Several New York wit
nesses hive been told they would be
examined in New York.
Gayly Testifies.
The assertion that the formation Of
the United States Steel Corporation in
1901 had put an end to pools and
agreements intthe industry was made
by James Gayly today. Mr.. Gayly in
telling of conditions existing before
that date, denied that combinations or
agreemnts existed in the steel trade
today. Although at first opposed to
the plan, he now thoroughly approved
the understandings reached between
steel manufacturers at the conference
dinners inaugnrated by Judge E. H
Gary, head Of the corporation. E
Mr.. Gayley said that prior to 1901
there were agreements by which man:
ufaeturers were apportIoned certain
shares OF the steel business and
those who failed to get their allotted
share were taken care Of with a pro-
portion OF the genral profits.
