1907, and laid the situation before
him. The answer denies that
Messrs. Gary and Prick failed to dis
close to the President all the facts
bearing upon the proposed purchase
or the occasion for making the same
whihc were pertinent thereto, or
that they made any misstatement or
misleading statement of any sort or
character to the President regarding
the financial situation in New York
or regarding the wishes or attitude
of themselves or the Steel Corpora
ton with respect to the proposed
purchase 1t admits that the
President stated that he did not feel
1T to be his duty to prevent the pro-
posed transaction and say that in
reliance upon said statement Messrs
Gary and Frick returned to New
Yrtk, whereupon the purchase was
completed. The answer denies
that the Tennessee company was a
strong present or probable future
competitor of the steel Corporation
at the time Of ifs acquisition by the
latter,
Encouraged Competition.
| The answer says that "continu-
ously since the organization or the
Steel Corporation it has been the
declared and consistently followed
| policy OF said corporatin to encour-
Iage rather than to restrain the ut
most freedom Of trade and com
lmerce; to refrain from acts of OPP

hey constituted an attempt at mo-

If the Steel Corporation nor the said
corporation had any knowledge OF

Continuing the answer recites
that the steel Corporation made ali
it's purposes and the details Of its
organization public in a variety of
ways. and says that the attention OF
the officers of the United States gov
eminent was practically directed to
said organization at the time 1t was
effected. Only within few months
has any department or responsible
officer of the government criticized
the Steel Corporation as being q
combination in restraint Of trade, or

Has Cheapened Products.
The answer then sets forth that
the steel Corporation has cheapened
the production of steel to the con
sumer; that 1t has increased its for
eign trade from $S,000,000 in 100 /
| to $50, 10000 in 19i1; that it has
not suppressed competition; that thu
number of it's competitors in tbs
United States has largely Increased
lsince 1901, and that its stock has
been sold several times over and i
now held by multitude of small
/ investors in this and foreign coun
tries.
| The defendants then submit:
"That after asquiescing in the or
ganization of the Steel Corporation

for the government to insist in

The concluding portion Of the
answer is as follows.

lated or attempted or intended to
violate the Antitrust act or any
provisions thereof. And they par
ticularly deny that they are now

BRYAN'S FORECAST OF
WHAT G. O. p. WILL
DO AT CHICAGO

We have now approached near enough
to the Republican national convention
to forecast the action OF that body. EX-
President Roosevelt will, apparently,
have majority of the northern states,
while President Taft seems likely to
have a majority of the convention-in-
Guiding the southern delegates who
represent merely patronage and Doodle.
Mr.. Roosevelt has been careful to ar
range for contesting delegates from the
south-this was the first indication of his
intention to bolt. With a majority Of
the northern delegates he is in posi-
ton to have convention of his own in
case his contesting delegates are refused
admission.
The conclusion, therefore, is that Mr..
Roosevelt will be the nominee of the
regular convention or the nominee of a
a boiling convention. Get ready for his
candidacy-he is quite sure to rum
