REBATES ON ORE SHIPMENTS
Methods of Steel Trust Subsidiaries
in Olden DAYS Disclosed.

NEW YORK, March 6.-Rebating on
ore transportation was one of the meth
DDS employed by present subsidiaries of
the United States Steel corporation to
obtain advantage over competitors in the
days just before Incorporation was or
ganized, according to evidence adduced
in the government suit to dissolve the
corporation as an illegal combination.
The evidence was ELECTED by counsel for
the government in support of its conten-
ton that the corporation has maintained
excessive freight rates on its ore-carrying
railroads and thereby secured an advan-
tage over Independent steel manufacture
ers.
The government counsel held that IL it
was pOssible for the ore-carrying rail-
roads to give rebates on the published
rates before the corporation was Or
panized, the maintenance of the same
published rates after II was organized
was unwarranted.

But in the face Of all obstacles the
movement has gone forward rapidly, the
few small, weak and scattered societies
of yesterday have grown into powerful
federated associations whose credit is
second only to that of the government
under which they exist, and which can
command unlimited funds for deposit and

But with all their expansion no one

WOMEN ON POLICE FORCE
WOULD BE TERROR TO VICE
Mrs. o. II. p. Belmont Gives Albany
Committee Pointers on Dealing
With Girh Delinquencies.

NEW YORK. March g. - Policewomen
would give material aid in stamping out
vice in New York. Mrs. o. III. p. Belmont
told the legislative committee investigat-
ing police conditions yesterday.
1.-THE appalling increasing traffic in
girls in Mrs. Belmont's opinion, was
sufficient reason why something should
be done to regulate the disorderly re-
sorts. and she declared that 'men, no
matter how worthy and upright they are,
are not qualified to deal with delinquent
girls without the help Of women
Mrs. Belmont expounded some of the
most striking opinions yet heard by the
legislative committee in her espOusal of
woman police officers. The city, she de-
clared. must be the protector of its girls
and young women
LAS the mother is the guardian Of the
children In the home" Mrs. Belmont said,
II believe that instead of eliminating this
good influence at a critical state in the
life of our children-the children Of the
nation-it should be extended into the
streets. and that the municipality should
nish motherly protection to girls in pub
lie places.
Women for Congested Sections.
II believe a force Of policewomen
should be assigned to the sections most
congested at night-not overlooking the
lonely Places
At the same time before the aldermanic
investigating committee, which also is
conducting probe into the affairs of the
police department, Gen. Theodore A.
Bingham, former police commissioner,
gave his views In regard to police con-
troll Gen. Bingham favored long term

Lesson of Unselfish Effort.

"Aguinaldo with his hemp weaving and
agriculture may be a less heroic figure
than the willy general who for SO long
eluded the American armies, just as clean
streets and city high schools somehow
make less noise in the concert of the pow
ers than the roar Of guns in Manila bay;
but when the real history of humanity is
written 1t can scarcely leave untold the
story of the unselfisr efforts Of America to
carry the light Of education to the Phil
