Washington, June 9.-The first
clash between the committees investi-
eating the United states steel corpora
tion and counsel for the corporation.
II. V. Lindbury. occurred today when
Percival Roberts. Jr. a director, was
former Vice President James Gayiey
of the corporation We're witnesses
both testifying that agreements as to
parcellng of output were made be-
tween steel manufacturers before the
corporation was formed.
The committee sought to show that
through the Gary dinners the prices
of steel products were maintained and
competition curtailed as effectively as
they were prior to the corporations
formation. by gentlcmen's agreements
made despite the Sherman antitrust
law.
Much of the examination of Mr.
Roberts dealt with an academic dis
cussion of j. p. Morgan's industrial
potentiality. though Morgan's name
was largely avoided. and with the sys-
TEN of interlocking directorates of the
corporation and other big industrial
enterprises.
WAS II the same spirit of phi
lanthropy that guided independent steel
manufacturers to make agreements be-
fore the organization of the United
States steel corporation" Representa-
tive Bcall asked Director Roberts, las
prompted the steel corporation to save
the nation In 1907 by taking over the
Tennessee Coal 4 Iron company?"
Mr.. Roberts was replying that he
did not believe philanthropy entered
into business when Attorney Lindbury
protested against the question.
II submit" said Mr. Lndbury. that
arguments between the questioner and
the witness are unseemly."
The form OF the question was
changed and Mr.. Roberts answered
that since the formation of the steel
corporation. business men In this
country had new ideals which governed
them to avert the destructive compe-
tition.
Il believe" he said, that through
the Gary dinners men In the steel
business have accomplished great re-
suits for the benefit OF all by the
application of good common American
sense. Example has a great deal to
do with the affairs OF this world"
With j. r. Morgan mind, though
not mentioning him by name, Chair
man Stanley asked:
rs there In the financial world today
man of infinite power and vast in
terests whose example Is regarded n
a way as the law by big business
men?"
NO replied Mr. Roberts. II think
there are certain ideals of cooperation
which govern US all. ideals that may
be personified In certain individuals"
rs there such an individual In
America" asked Mr. Stanley.
Yes, | think So"
Where does he reside?"
II think his name Is legion. At
least that Is the hope for the future
OF this country. u we destroy in
diy!iduals we surely will get into trou-
BILE"

MAYOR OF BUTTE WOULD LIKE
TO LEARN WHAT BECAME OF
BERGER RESOLUTION.
M'NAMARAS
Writes to Montana's Representatives
in Congress Asking That the Wis
reeted From Committee-Coneern
Estradition Of Alleged Dvnamiters.

Butte, June 9.-(Special)-Thc fol-
lowing letter. which Is sclf-explana-
tory, was sent to Montana's represent
atives In congress this morning by
Mayor l.. J. Duncan:
Butte. Mont, June .. 1911. Hon
Charles \. Pray, Washington. D. c.
Honorable Sir: ir:-Congressman Ber-
ger of Wisconsin introduced in the
house of representatives. some time
since, resolution calling for an in
vestigation of the methods by which
the Mcnamara brothers were taken
from the state of Indiana to the state
of California on criminal charge.
For some reason this resolution Is
being withheld.
Meanwhile, u great injustice. so II
is believed by many OF your con-
stituents of Montana. is being done to
the McNamaras. 1t Is my conviction.
and that OF IL very considerable body
of organized laboring men In Montana
that the suppression of Congressman
Berger's esolution Is intentional ana
designed to assist the enemies of or
ganized labor to deprive the McNa-
mara brothers of their just and legal
rights. and to strike foul blow
against them and the cause of organ
lied labor with which they are allied.
"Will you, or will you not. use your
voice and influence in congress to
bring Mr.. Bergers resolution out of
the committee and before the house,
where 1t may be acted on by congress?
I am sure no harm could come through
having such an investigation as the
said resolution calls for and l am
sure also that your efforts to have
such an investigation made would be
very gratifying to organized labor in
Montana.
Let the public know the truth about
this case. Less harm can come from
revelation of the truth concerning the
extradltion in question than from the
suspicious and the loss of confidence
In legal procedures and in the integ-
rity of lawmakers that are certain
to arise and spread by reason Of the
efforts. real or supposed. of congress
to suppress Congressman Berger's
resolution Yours respectfully,
LEWIS J. DUNCAN,
Mayor"

BY WASHINGTON
|NSURGENT
REPRESENTATIVE WARBURToN
SHOWS HOW CONGRESS is
NEGLEcTING REVENUE.

Washington, June 9.-Representativc
Warburton of Washington. a newly
elected republican insurgent. charged
congress today with letting millions
of dollars go to waste that II might
collect In internal revenue taxes on
liquor and tobacco. He attacked the
pending wool tariff revision offered
by the democrats, saying their plea
of needing revenue was not serious
argument for keeping high duties on
woolen goods.
Mr.. Warburton said the democrats
had been afraid to reduce the duties
on wool any further for fear of the
consequence at the next election II the
woolen industry was prostrated by
the removal of protection. He said
the democrats had been compelled to
adopt the republican doctrine of pro-
lection and excused themselves on
the ground Of needing revenue.
And In the meantime" said Mr.
Warburton. American people are
paying six times as much tax to the
government Oh sugar as they are OF
scent cigars: II times as much on
sugar as on 10-cent cigars: 80 times
as much on sugar as on 25-cent ci-
gars and so times as much on sugar
AZ on 5O-cent cigars"
Representative Peters % 'rassachu.
sets, democratic member of the
ways and means committee. said WOO
and woolen goods would have beer
made free but for the necessity OF
revenue. He said the duties had beer
placed as low as consistent with Sc.
curing enough revenue to run tn,
