FOUNDATION IS LAID
BY THE GOVERNMENT
Counsel Expect to Prove in
Steel Trust Suit That RooSe-
welt Was Deceived.
MAGNATE ON STAND
John A. Topping Tells of the
Value of Property of
Tennessee Company.
ON STAND

NEW YORK, May 15.-Taking the
testimony of John A. Topping, chair
man Of the Republic Iron & Steel com
panv. the government lawyers, IN the
suit to dissolve the United States steer
corporation under the Sherman law
laid the foundation today of evidence
by which they hope to prove that the
absorption of the Tennessee Coal "
Iron company in 1907 was illegal.
The government contends that TO ac-
ouire the company the corporation took
advantage of the financial dlihcuItles
in the banking firm of Moore d ochley,
the large holders of Tennessee stoch'
and that when President Roosevelt was
;nduced by Judge Gary and II. G. Frick
TO approve the TRANSACTION because IL
was the only way the firm could be
saved and the panic checked, the pres
ident was deceived.
Mr.. Topping, who was chairman OF
the Tennessee company at the tlihc'
gave testimony setting forth the value
of the company's properties nc blI
mingham. Ala. and what facilities 1t
possessed for the manufacture of steel
and pig iron that would make it
dangerous competitor Of the corpora
tion.
Great Advantages.
He said that owing to the character
of the ores and the proximity Of the
furnaces, il could manufacture steel
cheaper than any concern IN the coun-
try and that it was practically the
only concern equipped to make open
hearth rails, now in general use,
The corporation maintains that ow-
ing to high freight rates the company
could not successfully compete in the
northern markets.
Mr.. Topping was taken through the
details of the transactions leading up
to the acquisition of the Tennessee
company. in which he had share as
a member OF the syndicate of bnan-
ciers. including John W. Gates, Grant
B. Schley, Earl Oglesbay, Leonard G,
Hanna and others. After saying that
the syndicate originally had no inten-
tion of selling the property, the wit
lures for the sale Of his holdings to
Lewis Cass Ledyard, the lawyer, who
finally negotiated the deal for the cor
poration.
Exonerates Magnates.
"Did you hear or learn that Judge
Gary, Ledyard. II. C.. Frick or the steel
CORPORATION did anything to bring
about the situation that required the
sale Of this stock7' asked r. V. Lind
aburv of counsel for the defense.
~ did not and 1 do not now believe
ANYTHING like that was DONE" said
Mr.. Topping.
Mr.. Lindabury made by the witness
the point In rebuttal Of the govern
ment's contention that the Tennessee IS
property was valuable, that the other
Of the syndicate were suffi
cientlv wealthy to have taken the
Sehley holdings themselves if they had
had any desire to keep the property.
Bearing on the allegations Of the
government that there were price un-
among steel manufactur-
ers up to comparatively recent date,
Mr.. Topping testified to having notified
Judge Gary and other manufacturers
OF his intention, to cut the, price Of
bars a year before he publicly an
nounced the cut.

TAF I WILL NOT
LET UP At TACK
ON ROOSEVELT
President Is Thoroughly
Aroused as He Makes Speech
After Speech in Ohio in De-
fenSe of Administration.

~ ANDUSKY. Ohio, May 15.-Pres'
ident Taft will not let
up his attack on Colonel Roose-
Welt as long as nc is in the CAM
paign for denomination.
In several short speeches he made to
day MI Taft emphatically declared
thatit WAS not time now for Mr.. Roose-
welt to teach the doctrine of ''no per
soDsIities.
'.Mr. Roosevelt is now going about
Otio saying he will not condescend to
personalities with me-" Mr.. Taft shout
cd at Mansfield.
''If he had reached that conclusion
two months ago. / should not be here
10 talk to YOU at all. But having ap-
piled to me every name in the calendar
and now coming back to Ohio and fear
ing its effects, he says Lets have no
personalities.
In Ohio to Answer.
Il am here to answer the charges
that he is continuing to make, although
he docs not roar so loudly and docs
not use so many epithcts.'
Al Gallon the president said:
81 may be puzzle -wittcd, but / know
the difference between plain truth and
plain fiction. and there are some people
that ! don t think do He had been
talking about Mr.. Roosevelt.
Mr.. Taft spoke twelve times today,
including his night address here. He
started out with the handicap Of un-
usual hoarseness and Mt several towns
spoke only for few minutes.
DR.. Thomas H. Rhoades, the presi-
dent s physician, was hopeful tonight,
however, that a rest tomorrow in Cleve-
land would put the president In shape
TO take up his speech. making again
Friday.
Asks Square Deal.
Although the main theme of his talks
was his own administration, its effort
for good legislation and the necessity
for granting him square deal, he
brought in the name Of Mr. Roosevelt
time after time. s'You would think
from the way he talked that we were
very oppressed people. Well, / have
no doubt that there is room for improve
ment, but | think We are getting along
fairly well, and we are not In condi-
1ion Of dissolution so that we need a
capital operation in the form of Theo
dore Roosevelt for a third term" he
said at Marion.
All records for fast running on the
trip were broken on the journey from
Elyria to Sanduslly. The special train |
made the thirty-five miles In less than
thirty minutes.
The president departed tonight for
