and executive officers OF transcontinental
lines 10 be held here August T. The plan
now under consideration comprises the
abandonment Of the present method Of
meeting water competition on the Pacific
coast so far as class rate business Is
concerned and substantial increase In
rates.
Since the interstate commerce commits
sion issued It's new ruling In the inter
mountain cases, reducing rates to Spo-
kane and other intermediate points the
roads are said TO have been seeking a
means Of overcoming the loss OF revenue
caused by the cuts.
Class rates were not involved in the in

only high grade commodities the railroads

Tennessee Coal and Iron Com
pany Has Holdings Valued
at $200,O00,0O0.
REAL REASON FOR ITS
PURCHASE BY THE TRUST
Steel Corporation Hearing Is
Continued Before Senate
Committee.

NEW YORK, Aug THAT the ore
and coal holdings acquired by the
United States Steel corporation in the
absorption of the Tennessee Coal and
Iron company in 1907 have valuation
of S200,000,000 was estimated from fig.
ures on the mineral holdings of the Ten
nessee company given today to the
house steel committee These figures
were compiled by expert engineers.
In acquiring the Tennessee company
the United States Steel corporation eI-
changed per cent second bonds valued
at $29, 100000, the transaction having
been brought about to prevent the col
lapse Of the New York brokerage firm
of Moore & Schley, which had made
excessive loans with Tennessee Coal
and Iron stock as collateral.
Since the beg of the inquiry
into that deal, Representative Stanley
and other members of the house COM
mittee have sought to develop evidence
panic and danger to Moore & Schley
was not the prime motive for the
merger, but that it was desire on the
part of the steel corporation to acquire
the Tennessee corporation and its vast
mineral deposits of the Birmingham dis.
trict.
Heard Testimony.
In furtherance of that idea, notwith.
standing the determined declarations of
witness after witness who participated
in the exchange, that the suggestion Of
conspiracy was preposterous, the COM
mittoe heard today the testimony of
G. c. Perrin. Walter Moore and W. M.
Given, expert engineers who appraised
the deposits of the Birmingham field
in 1904.
These men declared that the ore de-
posits of that region and their proxim-
ity to coal deposits estimated at nearly
1000, 100000 tons, make that territory
almost unparalleled from an ore pro-
ducing standpoint. Ore royalties of 35
cents ton on more than 4O0,0Oo,0oo
tons in that region acquired by the
steel corporation from the Tennessee
company, and coal deposits aggregating
more than 1,600000,000 tons, were
given by the experts as basis upon
which members of the committee com
pute that these properties alone are
worth 5000, 100000. OF the available
ore in all the region, the estimated
holdings of the Tennessee Coal and
Iron company are given as from so to
70 per cent.
The experts agreed that pig iron
could be produced there S4 ton
cheaper than in the Pittsburg district
and 50 a ton less than any other place
in the world
