STORMY SESSION
IN STEEL HEARING.
Corporation Attorneys Threat
en- to Take Case Before
U. S. Court.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 49, S-Threats
by attorneys for the United States
Steel Corporation to stop the taking
of testimony In the governments dis
solution suit, and go at once before
the circuit judges, now sitting in
Philadelphia, to have them pass upon
the admissability of certain evidence,
marked a stormy session today be-
fore Examiner Henry P. Brown at
the reopening of the examiners hear
ings.
Objections were made by r. v.
Lindabury, attorney for the steel cor
poration, to evidence offered by Dr.
Francis Walker, United States dep
uty commissioner of corporations,
designed to show IAN artificial con-
troll of prices" of steel rails. Mr.
Lindabury declared he would ask p
suspension of the hearing until he
could have the court pass on the
evidence.
In the controversy DIR. Walker de-
clared Mr.. Lindabury had made
offensive references to him, and Jacob
M Dickson, the governments chief
counsel, declared the steel cor
poration's attorney was insulting
the witness. He demanded that the
hearing proceed. The dispute was
taken into conference of attorneys.
After a three weeks re-
cess Henry p. Brown, exam
iner appointed to take testimony
in the suit by the government be-
fore the New Jersey Federal Court to
dissolve the United States Steel Cor
poration as violative of the Sherman
antitrust law, today resumed hear
ings here.
DR.. Francis Walker, deputy COM
missioner of corporations, was the
first witness called by the govern
ment. He was questioned about data
gathered from reports and inyestiga-
tions of the steel corporation.
DR.. Walker first produced statistical
tables upon which the government
has based its steel reports and upon
which 1t is arriving at other conclu-
sions. The tables gave market prices
of iron and steel products, and had
been compiled largely from "authori-
tative" trade journals.

AMERICAN CAN IS
LOSER IN BIG SUIT
Must Pay Vulcan Company
Over $5oo,ooo by Jersey
Ruling. y
[From a stan Correspondent

TRENTON, Nov. 19.-The long It'll
cation in the suit of the Vulcan De-
timing Company against the Ameri-
can Can Company for the recovery of
the profits that accrued to the Ameri-
can through its wrongful use during
the years 1903 10 1907 of the Vulcan's
secret process Of detinning or recov-
ering tin from scrap tin is settled to-
day in favor of the Vulcan by the de-
cision of the Court of Errors and APP
peals, the highest New Jersey court.
Under the decision handed down
yesterday the Vulcan company will
recover from the American Can Com
pany between $525,O00 and s612, ,000
The American Can Company has had
set apart in its treasury fund suf-
ficient to satisfy this judgment.
Gummere Writes Decision.
In the decision, written by Chief
Justice Gummere, the decision of the
Court of Chancery and the report Of
the special master. ex-Chancellor
Magic, are upheld in all essentials.
The court dissented from the decision
of the lower court only in the matter
of allowing the American Can Com
pany credit for the value of its de-
timing plants that became useless,
of money for repairs. insurance and
taxation e tended, which the Court
of Chancery had refused to allow. The
court also allowed the Vulcan interest
compounded at per cent. on the
amount of its claims, which the lower
court had not permitted.
Henry Wollman and Robert FL Nc
Carter, formerly attorney general of
New Jersey. represented the Vulcan,
and Richard v. Lindabury and Sirnp-
son, Thatcher & Bartlett the Amer
lean Can.
The suit started five years aso,
when the Court of Errors and APP
peals of New Jersey permanently en-
joined the American from detinning.
The American had been using the
Vulcans secret process then for four
years. The American closed up Its
defining plants and stopped this
work The court held that the profits
made by the American in detinnins
rightfully belonged to the Vulcan as
trustee of the secret process.
