STEEL POOL PLANNED
ELEVEN FIRMS TO DIVIDE TRADE

Counsel for Big Corporation Repudi-

Not Signed.

Washington-A purported pooling

pany and ten other kindred concerns

admittedly illegal document supposed
ly long since destroyed-stirred the
meeting of the house steel trust" In
vestigating committee.
No sooner had the committee met
than Chairman Stanley put into the
records copy of the alleged agree
ment 1t first came to light through
Eugene Bonnewell an attorney. and
F. B. Kaufman, job printer, both
of Wayne, Pa, who acquainted Chair
man Stanley OF their Information.
Any steel company violating the
terms of the agreement, 1t is assert
ed, laid itself liable to heavy penalties
and fines of as much as $1,000 have
been imposed. Each firm was re-
quired to make monthly sworn state
ments relating to shipments, rolling
production, ETC., and any member who
shipped more than his apportioned
amount was required to pay fine on
each pound of such excess, the money
collected being divided among the
members who did not ship up to their
allotted share.
Section of the agreement. reads:
"All sales between parties to these
agreements shald be at full prices.
as provided in agreement B and all
shipments shall be reported by the
manufacturer, on which a pool tax will
be charged the same as outside par
ties, the purchaser also to report ship
ments OF all such materials 80 bought.
for which they shall claim and receive
credit"
Richard Lindabury. counsel for the
United States Steel corporation. pro-
tested against the introduction OF copy
OF the agreement because it was not
signed and because the date as
given was one year in advance Of the
formation of the United States Steel
corporation. Mr.. Lindabury said that
there was no such agreement In the
flles of the steel corporation and he
denied all knowledge of It, but the
copy Of the agreement as read was
placed in the committees report.

Amendments That Encountered Can.
ada Pact Quickly Swept Aside
When Time Comes for Decisive Ac-

Washington.-The Canadian reel
procity bill was passed by the senate
by vote of SO ayes and q nays. and
the business for which congress was
assembled In extraordinary session
was concluded.
President Taft did. not receive the
measure for signature before leaving
for Beverly as the house had ad-
tourned before the senate took the
final vote. and the engrossment of the
bill must take place while the branch
in which :. originated is in session.
Every amendment. was voted down
by larger majority than that by
which the original bill finally carried
in all cases where roll call was
had. On the final passage Fl Repub-
licans voted for the bill and "a against.
80 Democrats for 1t and 3 against.
The only. significant thing as to
votes on the various amendments was
the practically unanimous disposition
on the part Of friends OF the reciproc-
ity measure not 70 allow anything to
mar the agreement entered into be-
tween executive officials Of the Cana
dian and United States govern
ments.
Most Of the votes on amendments
on which there were roll calls ran
about 16 to 81. The highest votes OBJ
tanned in favor OF any amendments
were those on the Nelson cattle and
farm products proposition and the Nc
Cumber scheme to prevent elimination
Of the duties on grain In bond. The
former was defeated % to So and the
latter 21 to 81.
No big crowds filled the galleries
when the end came. but there were
many members Of the house on the
floor as the finish approached. There
was no oratory-just a series of roll
calls, which brought the main issue
to a vote.
