Washington. Feb .2S.-That the So
cial functions known as Gary din
ners" control absolutely all the prices
i'm the steel industry ami that the
United States steel corporation is in
restraint of trade through this price
control and its domination Of raw ma
terial. were the conclusions reported
to the Stanley steel committee Of the
house. today by Farquhar j. Mac
Rae, the committees expert account
ant.
MacRae's report was the result of n
detailed examination of the books of
the Steel trust, made while the
records were un'ler subpoena by the
committee. In several particulars,
the report contradicts testimony
given by officials OF the trust before
the committee.
The Gary dinners. the report says,
operate to maintain prices and eX-
clude competition.
"The arrangement is designed and
intended so to operate" II continues,
"an,, IT does so operate, as to steel
rails. although II is claimed that the
so-called independent companies can
cut prices without fear of penalty,
except the dishonor of declaring in
favor Cf the named prices and then
selling at some other price"
At the Cary dinners. representa-
tlves OF the steel corporation and In
depertlene concerns meet and agree
Ito reduce their production conform
ably 10 the estimate demand existing
1T can be no justification of the
cooperation of the participants in the
Gary dinners that no penalty at
taches to a violation of the declara-
tions mutually exchanged" the report
commented because. perforce the
antitrust act would prevent the en-
forcement of any penalty for reduc-
ing prices or exceeding ones share OF
the business"
The report drew the conclusion
that the Gary dinner agreements
were In reality just as binding on
steel manufacturers as the pool
agreements of the old days which
were legislated against in the Sher-
man act. A fabulous profit was made
ont of the formation of the Steel
trust by j. =. Morgan & Company
which framed the combination, the
report says the steel trust books
show. A total of $50. 100000 was paid

syndicate that organized the trust.

as is set forth in the reports OF the
| corporation officials. This amounts
to a net profit Of $13 a ton on finished
steel products
Eighty per cent. OF the steel l5ro-
ducing properties of the country are
dominated by the corporation, the
report says, although Il. II. Gary and
II. c. Frick told the president when
they absorbOl the Tennessee Coal &
Iron company in 1907 that the trust
controlled, and desired to control less
than sixty per cent. OF the steel busi-
ness
Even in making its profits. the re-
port charges, the steel corporation re-
strains competition by concentrating
the greater part OF It's profits in rs
operations on raw materials and
semi-nnished products, while conhn-
Ing the finished product plants TO a
low profit.
This operates, according to the re-
port to keep the price of raw matte
riais up to the advantage of the cor
poration, and the detriment of inde-
pendent competitors,
The report showed in detail the
dividends paid by the subsidiary COM
panles Of the Steel trust during the
first nine years of It's existence. The
total amount was $753,124.366.53.
The fact that the subsidiary compa-
nies operating in raw material made
greater dividends than the finished
products concerns was cited to show
that the corporations kept the price
Of raw material up to the embarass-
ment of competitors.

was presented in the conclusions of
lthe report.

viously competing corporations were

report sets forth ore owning and

combination of which eliminated
! competition in the sale OF pig iron
coal and coke companies, and other
formerly competing concerns.
The greater concerns in the iror
and steel trade, the report said, were
acquired at vastly inflated values. due
to the superior effect given tn,
merger by the elimination of the
, competition of these companies.
"Other acquisitions were made IL

said, "for which no explanation ap

Elva Raymond, the mother of the
children, lives in LaRue and at the
present time has possession of one
child. She did not appear at the
hearing.
Some time ago the mother caused
the arrest of her husband. Freeman
Todd Raymond Of Palnsville. Ohio. on
the charge OF non-support. He was
brought here and promised to support
his children.
While Raymond was here he re-
quested that Mr.. Ulsh be appointed
as guardian of his children as he did
nd. think their association with their
mother was the best thing for them.
An investigation Iby the probate Judge
showed that the allegations of the
husband were true.
