that inasmuch as the government had

lacked further Jurisdiction. He sought
to prove this by citing that the house

committee should inquire into offences

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Stanley
investigating committee of the house
of representatives is in possession of
evidence, which has not yet been made
public, that is sufficient to convict the
steel trust of obtaining illegal rebates
from the railroads to the extent Of
millions of dollars. This information
comes to the writer direct from au-
thoritative sources.
Relating is crime punishable by a
penitentiary sentence.
This evidence has not become pub

committee has not had time to reach,
in public hearings, this feature of the
steel trusts wrong doing. But the
evidence has been in the hands IF the
investigators employed by the Stanley
committee for some time. In some way
the steel trust heads learned that this
evidence had been uncovered by the
investigating committees agents, and
ever since their discovery of this fact
they have been frantically trying to
bring the steel probe to a halt.
All the railroads which carry steel
trust materials and products from the
plants to connecting roads are owned
by the trust. Not an independent line
has a spur running into any of the
trusts plants. BY means of switch
