reading Corneille in English is moved
to laughter or tears, and an italian
reading Dante in English scarcely re-
cognizes the divine poet.
Good TRANSACTIONS are rare. For
faithful rendering OF mere words much

edge OF the subtle shades of meaning
OF the words OF both languages is a
primary requisite. But more than
words are to be translated; thoughts,
portant than words. And II Is in this
that most translators are an oxem-
plification OF the old Italian epigram,
traduttore. traditore.
This is not to say that every trans
lator is a traitor. Among the cases

KENNEDY ON STAND
IN STEEL INQUIRY
Reduces Estimate of Number
of Tube Men Now in
the Combine.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, October 3.-As law
yers and witnesses in the suit of the
federal government, against the United
States Steel Corporation assembled this
morning, Jacob NJ. Dickinson, chief coun-
sci for the, government, announced that
Julian Kennedy would be recalled, and
after him the heads of machinery manu-
featuring companies would testify, with
view to ascertaining whether compa-
MES furnishing machinery to the cor
poration had refused to sell machines to
Independents.
Secured Additional Information.
Mr.. Kennedy was asked if he had testi-
fled before the Stanley committee that IS
or 80 per cent of the tube manufacturers
had gone into the United States Steel
Corporation, and that yesterday he said
1t was SO per cent. He said he had
secured additional information since he
testified in Washington. Mr. Kennedy
also said that the prices Of tubes had
come down since the formation of the
corporation.
Mr.. Dickinson, for the government, ask
ed Mr.. Kennedy if his opinion, as ex-
pressed on the stand yesterday. that the
corpora ton could crush it's competitors
was based on the fact that directors of
railroads. banks and other institutions
would benefit by the crushing of these
competitors.
Not in Making Product.
Counsel for the corporation objected to
this question. but Mr.. Kennedy finally re-
piled: II thing not. in the making of the
product. but in the selling Of it,
He explained his testimony further by
saying that he meant the corporation
would be able to put competitors out of
business because it could produce iron
and steel at less cost than its COM
petitors.
DO you think asked Mr. Dickinson,
that the railroads controlled by the
United States Steel Corporation have any
advantage over competitors by reason of
their ownership or control?'
Has Invested Outside.
MI Kennedy replied he did not know.
He said that since the organization Of
the steel corporation he had invested his
money In outside interests and had not
felt any apprehension over the probable
ity of the steel corporation ''wiping him
