Inc former banker, recently Daroled

THE DEMOCRATS
WITH CAUCUS DISPUTE
Minority Leader Mann Pro-
vokes Applause From His
Republican Colleagues.

Representative Mann of Illinois. minor
ity leader of the House. used the differ
ences of the democrats in the House over
the money trust inquiry as text for
few chiding remarks in the House
today.
The minority leader provoked applause
from his republican colleagues when he
quoted statements made by Chairman
Henry of the rules committee prior to the
money trust caucus. and referred to the
scrap the democrats had among them
selves.
THE gentleman from Texas, Mr.. Henry
worthy chairman of the rules commit
tee" said Mr. Mann. declared that when
he went into the caucus he would de-
mand that the doors be thrown open to
the press and public that all might hear
what he had to say on this question. He
also said that an 'emissary' had been
sent to him from the gentleman from
Alabama. tho esteemed majority leader,
Mr.. Understood, asking him to COM
promise on the money trust Inquiry.

Of doubt Of his S1irectness At one stage
Of the progress of these conferences In
New York. when the La Toilette men
were talking of taking his permission to
leave La Toilette and go to Roosevelt. the
question was raised whether Roosevelt
was even then candidate, and whether
even IL he were at this time he would be
q candidate all the time and under all
circumstances.
One of the conferees went off to ask
him. 1t was his answer which juStifies
my stating his candidacy as such an open
fact.
And there is good reason for doing SO.
The public and the leaders of the pro-
gressive campaigns all over the country
have the need and, the right to know now.
And he recognizes that himself at last,
also he recognizes the right of everybody
to know Just what he stands for. not
what he has stood for, but what he would
have the progressive party stand for.
For he has changed, since he was Presi-
dent, some of his ideas Of men and
things.
With these facts out. there remains
! only the difficult problem of avoiding
a bad split among the prosresstNes,
Such a split is likely. There is more
danger of a division among men OF
principles than among. lot OF party
machinists. 1t is easier to divide a
dollar equitably, or even a lot of Of
fees, than it is to divide a principle.
Stands for Principle.
And that is where La Toilette. stands.
His representatives represent him as
being out now, as from the beginning,
to see to it that~the progressive move
ment has progressive principles. not to
be nominated himself, not to nominate
any particular person, but to formulate
and establish certain principles that
will accomplish legislative and admin
istrative acts.
He let those persons that wished to
leave him. But he himself means to stay
in the field until his principles and ipur-
poses are assured of acceptance. The
unfulfilled purpose Of the New York con-
ferences, then, is to try and get from
Roosevelt and all others concerned a state
ment of principles which will enable La
Toilette and all others to get together to
work, not for Roosevelt, and not for La
Toilette, but for the future of the party
which is about to be born.

American Thread Company Loses
Suit Before British Court.

LONDON, February S.-The court of
appeals today confirmed the judgment
rendered by Justice Hamilton Of the
kings bench division of the high court of
justice February Is, 1911, declaring that
the American Thread Company, which is
incorporated under the laws of the state
Of New Jersey. is liable to an income tax
in Great Britain on profits amounting to
100000
At the trial Justice Hamilton held that
although the, mills and business of the
American Thread Company were in
America, the fact that most Of the COM
the directors in England were highly con-.
cerned with the direction of the COM

pressed much interest in an experiment

After all my work and the invest
ment of my fortune 1 never have taken
penny out of the industry and never
have paid a dividend. and if the pro-
posed tariff is to be the law l repeat
that l shall cash in" said the Witness
closing his general statement.
In reply to questions from members of
the committee Mr.. Schwab said that the
wages of steel workmen here are double
those of Great Britain and more than
double those of other European countries
In replying to Senator John Sharp Will
liams he caused a general laugh by ad-
dressing the Mississippi senator as my
dear fellow A moment later he de-
clined to enter into "a technical argu-
ment with Mr.. Williams.
Il do not know enough about the sub
ject to ask u technical question" said
the senator.
That is evident, said the witness ap-
parently without especial meaning
The witness admitted that he got less
for the steel exported than for that sold
here. AT times We even sell abroad al

cost of a large production is less than
that of small production; It was neces-
sary to maintain the output to keep the
machines going all the time
FOREIGN Comnetitiop
Speaking of foreign competition. Mr..
Schwab said that pig iron could be made
in China at $50 per ton. He said that
he was importing iron from that country
for his San Francisco works, rather than
ship. from the Bethlehem works. Steel
rails cost in this country from SD to
$23 per ton, and in Germany about SIS
or $19, the result being that with free
access to our markets Germany would
have decided advantage over rail manu-
facturers on the American seaboard

feel justified in taking money out of

Charles NJ. Schwab Of Bethlehem. Pa
was present to testify before the Sem
ate committee on finance, when that
COMMITTEES met today. in regard to the
probable effect of the House steel bill
on the steel business of this country.
but was not called to the stand until
II. L. Gitterman of New York had been
heard. MIR. Gitterman is a manufac-
turer of tin foil and bottle caps. and he
complained that even the present duties
are too low. He said, therefore, that
there should be an increase rather than
4 reduction of tariff duties.
Speaking of the effect of the Under
wood rates on the larger steel products
Mr.. Schwab said the conseG uences to the
steel business in the eastern states would
be serious. He undertook to correct err
roneous reports regarding his position.
"On numberless occasions l have stated
that with equal conditions, steel could
be made as cheaply in the United states
as in any other country he said. This
has been construed into a statement that
steel is mads as cheaply here as else
where. That (. have not said. and l do
not say. With the same conditions. espe-
cially with labor as cheap, we ask no pro-
lection, but the labor account weighs
heavily against us. Only 100 miles from
New York as We are, it costs as much
to put our steel there as 1T does to bring
it from Holland
Thinks Present Tariff Necessary.
He considered the present tariff rates
necessary to the prosperity of the steel
business. Most emphatically, / am OPP
posed to any reduction" he said.
Mr. Schwab went on to say that with
out protection he would not want any
financial interest in the steel business,
and he would regard as wasted the
S35.O09.OOO which recently had been in
vested in his business. He stated that
the average wages paid by his company
is S7SS per year. and he added that the
wages are still increasing. Mr.. Schwab
also said that more than half of the
49, coo employees of the Bethlehem works
are foreigners, and unskiiled. Senator
Stone sought to ascertain whether any
of the foreigners are brought to the
United States on contracts, but the wit
ness denied that such was the case.
Mr.. Schwab defended the seven-day-a-
week system of work in the steel indus
try, saying that 1t is the system through
out the world and q change could not be
made by any one manufacturer. 1t would
mean the addition of a seventh of the
force, which present conditions would not
