FOR ELIMINATION
OF M|DDLEMAN
Stock Company Plans to Encour-

Cost of Living.
Especial to The Times Dispatch.]


New York, June s.--A new and COM
prehensivc plan for the elimination of
the middleman, the Encouragement of
the producer and the reduction Of the
cost OF living for the consumer Is an
nounced by the National Cooperative
Company, recently incorporated in Del
aware for s5o.Oo0,OO0. ito be owned,
controlled and operated by the people
of the United States and for their BEN
eft only"
The objects of the company are to
retail meats. their usual by-products
and general farm products. at prices
stripped of the profits Of trusts and
middlemen. in its own retail shops in
the large cities; to establish cold sto-
rage plants at centres which are avail
able for receiving, accommodating, as
sorting and distributing general farm
products the idea being not to with
hold products for higher prices. but to
keep an even supply available for pur-
chasers; to establish abattoirs in the
large live stock centres for handling
cattel sheep, lambs, calves. hogs and
their by-products and their distribu
ton direct to the retail shops; to es-
tablish factories for canning various
kinds of meats and farm products and
the making Of soups. The retail shops
can be put in complete working order
within three months after sites are Sc
cured. 1t will take from eight months
to n year to build the large packing
plants after foundations are laid. but
three plants now available are to be
obtained with which to make a start.
The concern is a stock company.

JAMES. GAYLEY
. AGAIN TEST|F|ES IN
STEEL TRUSTPROBE
Cites Number of Ore Prop
critics Taken Over by the
COrpOrati0n-In Touch
With Bessemer

New York, March 6.-James Gayley,
formerly vice president of the United
States Steel corporation, continued his
testimony today in hearings of the gov
eminent suit to dissolve the corpora
ton as an illegal combination.
Mr.. Gayley testified that he had
recommended the purchase of the
Champion Iron mines by the Steel cor
poration in 1902. in order that it might
not be taken over by competitors. The
Union Sharon Steel company subse-
quently acquired by the so-called trust
was after the property at the time.
Witness cited number of other ore
properties taken over by the corpora
ton, some with the payment of large
cash bonus, besides the royalties on
the ore.
Returning to the days before the for
nation of the corporation Mr.. Gayley
said that it was to the interest of the
Carnegie Steel company to keep the
price of iron ore high and that he
kept in touch" with the Bessemer Ore
association with this purpose in view
THE higher the ore, the higher the
pig iron; the higher the pig iron the
higher the price of steel" he explained
Mr.. Gayley said that ore dealers In 1899
all agreed to advance the price 81 q
ton. In 1900, according to the minutes
of the Carnegie company, Mr.. Gayley
presented to the ore association a
proposition not to sell surplus ore to
which they seemed favorably disposed.
WAS this arrangement carried out?"
the government attorney inquired
Il don't recall that 1t got beyond the
talking stage" witness answered.
The ore association Gayley continued.
came to the Steel corporation in 1904
and wanted 1t to buy 1880 900 tons of
ore to prevent decentralization of the
market. The corporation refused TO do
this he said but advised the association
not to sell for less than IS ton. The
corporation, Mr.. Gayley explained, did
not want to see the price of ore re-
duced as this would reduce the price
of steel The association, however, sold
very much lower than $5 a ton
Questioned concerning various steel
mills taken over by the Carnegie Steel
company, Mr.. Gayley said Andrew Car
negie was "in error" when he wrote in

UCHDEVELOPMENT
IN THE SOUTHEAST
WOOdall Talks of Work Be
ing Done-Compliments
Birmingham

Having broken in February It's own
record for a month in the matter ol
building permit valuations and pesuh
upon the establishment of a new high
record for the tallest building In the
south, Birmingham seems to Intend TO
lead also in the amount of street paw
ing this year. said Walter J. Woodail,
editor of the Industrial Index, who,
with his brother. w. c. Woodais ousi-
ness manager of that publication 1s IN
the city
THE amount of paving for which
contracts have been awarded recently
and which is definitely planned In cities
of the southeast is remarkable, MI;
Woodau continued ut Is one or the
features of the great and widespread
development that is in progress In TINS
section. Paving is not eoniineo 10
cities. for in Florida counties supseah-
itial roads of brick are being con-
structed and 1t is of interest that BIZ
mingham made brick are used IN mucn
of this work.
.'The growth and upbuilding in Bir-
mingham are almost wonderful and
would be wholly so if the birmingham
spirit and the magnificent resources
back of Birmingham were not taken
into account No city. in the south Is
growing more rapidly or more sun
stantially than is Birmingham. l. nus
office buildings and other structures
that would be credita BILE to any city IN
the country. and the continued IN
crease of it's population Is demon
a,,1x nv fba constant 1eTec-
tion of numerous residences but per-
haps even more notably by the build
ing of more and more splendid apart
ment houses.
"But. as rapid as is the growth OF
Birmingham now, there are ample rea-
sons for the belief that It's greater
growth has just begun. -.
Iron and coal deposits help TO give
birmingham unusual resources-re-
sources such as few cities possess. 1t
Is one of the chief and most prosper
GUS and progressive cities in the south
east-as industrial and construction
reports show constantly-and 1t Will
have a large share in the greater de-
upon which this section has
entered
sThe southeast is the last great un-
developed section of the country. 1t
possesses as many advantages and re-
sources as any section "a the eouii'is
ever possessed, and some which no
other section ever enjoyed. The devel-
opment of these resources has but
fairly begun, and with this beginning
the attention of the country Is fixed
upon this section as never before. More
are buying lands and
more capital is being invested in the
southeast, by far, than ever before.
The opening of the Panama canal will
give increased impetus to the develop
ment of the southeast and this section
will receive as far-reaching benefit
from the markets which that water
way will develop as will any part or
the country Birmingham, as one OF
the great industrial and commercial
centers of the southeast, can but have
a large share in the bright prospects
that have dawned upon this section
