STEEL KINGS DENY CHARGES
FIVE SEPARATE ANSWERS FILED
BY SO DEFENDANTS.
Declare Main Effect Of Organization
Has Been to Effect
Economies.

Trenton, N. j., Feb. Absolute de.
NAL of alleged violations of the anti
trust law is made by the United States
Steel corporations, it's subsidiaries
and directors, in their answers filed
in the United States district court
here, to the governments dissolution
suit. Five separate answers were
filed, among them SO defendants.
The effect Of it's organization, the
corporation declares, has been to
cheaper production, effect economies
and increase foreign trade from S.
100000 to $6O,O0O,OOO annually within
ten years.
So long has the government acqui-
esced in it's existence. the answer
says, that it is now too late, as
matter of equity, to insist that it's
organization was illegal.
Nothing was withheld from Presi-
dent Roosevelt by Messrs. Gary and
Prick on Nov 4. 1907, the answer
says, when they sought his consent
to the corporations proposed pur-
chase of the Tennessee Coal, Iron &
Railway company. Nor were the So
called Gary dinners productive Of
agreements to regulate prices.
The answers are those of the Steel
corporation, Andrew Carnegie, John
D. Rockefeller, Jr., and Edmund G.
Converse. The Rockefellers made a
Joint answer.
The Messrs. Rockefeller deny that
they had an active part in the forma-
ton or management of the corpora
ton, the elder Rockefeller declaring
that he has had no immediate rela-
ton to the iron or steel business
since 1901.
Mr.. Carnegie says he had no part in
the plans for organizing the corpora
ton and no voice, direct or advisory,
ing the Carnegie Steel Company to
the United States Steel Corporation,
but denies that the acquisition by the
Carnegie Company of its subsidiaries
was in restraint of trade.
The answer of Edmund G. Converse,
director of the United States Steel
Corporation, is similar to the corpora
TONS answer.
Each of the defendants prays that
the suit be dismissed.
The answers filed with those filed
by the Minnesota group of land and
mining companies and five individuals
named as trustees, complete the an
swers from all Sc defendants named
in the suit. The next step will be the
filing of replications by the govern
ment, which must be done within 80
days, unless an extension of time is
granted. After that commissioner
will be appointed to take Testimony.
