United States Steel corporation.
Present at its birth, he described
how it was the natural outcome of
what he described as the refusal of
Andrew Carnegie to be bound by the
gentleman's agreement that marked
the early days of open competition in
the steel business.
He also told of millions lost and
created almost in a breath; how the
Carnegie mills, appraised at $780,

$500, 900, almost within the time
required to make the transfer to the

by Mr.. Morgan and other financial

upheaval, because it had loaned too
much money on the stock Of the Ten
nessee company.
Plans, the witness said, made by
Mr.. Carnegie in 1899 and 1900 to
circle his steel interests with a
railroad of his own and compete with
the National Tube company, organ
lied by Mr.. Morgan, by the erection
of tube works in Ohio, were factors
that lead to the birth OF the steel
combine.
Mr.. Gates revealed how Mr.. Nor
gan, alarmed by Mr.. Carnegie's plans
had sought the advice of himself and
James j. Hill; how Charles Schwab,
who he said was the only man who
had influence with Mr.. Carnegie, was
called in to suggest a way to "stop
Carnegie" and how the pioneer steel
king, was curbed, though greatly to
his financial gain.
He explained that the steel business
was threatened with several demor-
alizing forces when Carnegie's plans
became known, and that Mr.. Morgan,
became alarmed, fearing that Carne-
gle would demoralize both railroad
interests and steel prices.

PROTEST on TREATY
PROF. CHAMBsRLAIN, BANKER
SIMMONS AND SOME REAL
FORMERS ARE HEARD BY
SENATE COMMITTEE.

Washington, D. C.-Both the Ca
madam Pacific Railway company an6
the Hudson Bay Trading compan,
were given attention by 4. E. Cham.
berlain, of Brookings, S. D., when he
resumed his remarks before the sen.
ate committee on finance. To these
two corporations, which he designat.
ed as "mOnstrous," he ascribed much
of the responsibility, SO far as Can
ada is concerned, for the negotiation
of the proposed Canadian reciprocal
pact. He said: These two COM
panies own millions of acres of land
which will increase in value $40 per
acre the moment this. treaty is rati-
fed" In closing Mr.. Chamberlain
said: "Only during the last few
years have the Dakota. and Minneso-
ia farmers, under the protective pol
icy. been able to fix fair price for
their products. If the reciprocity
measure is passed they will again be
at the mercy of the other fellows"
The proposed reciprocal treaty is
an affront to the American farmer"
declared E. j. Mather, OF Groton, who
was introduced to the committee by
Senator Crawford, as "a real farm
er, who is here On his o,,s, initiative
and at his own expense.
Mr.. Mather spoke for only few
minutes, and after declaring that
President Taft was mistaken in say
ing that reciprocity would not injure
the farmer, he closed by asking the
committee to read thoroughly the
testimony of the northwestern farm
ers before reaching conclusion on
the measure. Another Groton farm
er, A. w. Krueger, explained that he
believed in "brotherly love-" but only
to sensible degree. Eve are told,"
said Farmer Kruger, chat we
should love our neighbors as our
selves, but we are not told except in
the matter of Canadian reciprocity,
to love them better than ourselves"
During the last few years." said
Mr.. j. C. Simmons, banker and farm
er of Aberdeen, "the farmers have
prospered under the republican pro-
tective policy. But now, after fol-
lowing that policy successfully for
years, it is to be swept away, leaving
the farmer without any protection at
ALL"
Mr.. Simmons said that he did not
believe it was good business policy
to aim such blow as the Canadian
pact does at one-third of the popula-.
tion of the country.
M. P. .Beebe, of Ipswich, asserted
that he anticipated loss of $685.
600 yearly for ten years in rentals

predicted the return of the panic con-
ditions of 1898.
w. H. Lyon, of Sioux Falls, clos
ed the protest of the South Dakota
delegation by calling upon the COM
mittee to disregard it's personal re-
gard for President Taft and its politi- |
cal leaning and consider the pro-
posed treaty merely upon its own
merits

The endorsements are far more nu-
merous and stronger IN quality than
the protests. The appointment will
undoubtedly be confirmed. The
president took ample time and the
most thorough examin,tion and in
quiry was made by bosh the attorney
general and the president concern
ing all the candidates named and the
environment and qualifications of
each. No point can be raised before

Relating how Carnegie had been
forced to abandon plans for extend
ing his steel business, Mr.. Gates
frankly admitted the combination
was formed to throttle competition
and that when John D. Rockefeller
had sought to enter the steel busi-
ness, deal was put through which
forced him to sell out for forty cents
on the dollar. Characterizing Mr..

The plan was to kill Madero on a

ter this Will Joen was to get $780,

Mexico City, Mexico.-Measures
for the ultimate disposition of the
insurrecto army and for payment of
the cost of the war were the first mat
ters to which the new created execu-
tive devoted his official attention.
President De la Barra proposes to
dissolve at once the revolutionary
forces, using portion of them to
augment the ranks of the rurales, or
ganized by General Diaz. The re-
mainder will be given assistance to
get employment or to return to their
homes. and all will be paid off as
though they were being mustered out
of the regular army.
Diplomats estimate the war has
cost not less than s2o,OOO,OOo, gold,
and that perhaps one tenth of this is
due to damages sustained by foreign
ers.
half of this amount is said by au-
thorities to be resultant from losses
sustained by Americans. In the le-
cations, foreigners already have be-
gun filing claims although the great
er part remains to come in. The
claims of China will be remarkable
for the number of persons demanding
