VIII Suffer-Regrets Govern

Maenate's Advice.

New York.-After a day Of intense
excitement in the stock market with
especially heavy declines in the secur-
tiles of the United States Steel cor.
poration, Ebert II. Gary, chairman of
the board, issued a statement.
Il think 1t would be improper for
me at this time to make any COM
ments concerning the suit, except to
say that | regret that the department
OF justice felt called upon to institute
proceedings.
"If any harm results 1t will fall
upon the stockholders and employees
a%ggregating a large number, and any
loss to them must be deplored.
1T 10 a time for everyone to keep
cool, with a disposition to patiently
await results, knowing that in the end
Justice will be done to all interests.
II believe disclosure of all the facts
will show that the suit ought to be de-
cided in favor Of the corporation on
its merits and that the following facts
will be established:
Defended as Legal.
Il. That in the organization Of the
United States Steel corporation those
in charge had no intention of creating
a monopoly or of restraining trade.
20. That the corporation never has
had nor attempted to exercise a mo-
nopoly or to restrain trade.
"3. That the conduct of the affairs
OF the corporation has clearly and pos
itively negatived any effort or inten-
ton to violate any provision Of the
Sherman law.
~. That the existence Of the corpo-
ration has been Of benefit and not Of
injury to its employees, Its customers,
its competitors and the general pub
lie.
"5. That no misrepresentation was
made to the president relative to the
Tennessee Coal and Iron properties
and that the motive of those connect
ed with the purchase was to prevent
q threatened general financial disas-
ter, which would have adversely af-
fected the corporation as well as 9TH
ers."
The statement Is the result Of a
protracted conference, in which the
participants were Chairman Gary, J.
Pierpont Morgan, Charles Steele and
George F. Baker, directors Of the cor
poration, as we'll as several Of the
legal representatives. Other than
this, no word came from Chairman
Gary or any other official Of the cor
poration.
