DETECTIVES BUSY
ON OWN INITIATIVE
O'Neal Declares Officers
Hunting Lacy in Dallas
for the Money in 1t

Montgomery, June 1S.-(Special.) )--Gov-
ernor O'Neal is wondering why detectives
who are, searching for Theo Lacy, abb
sconding chief clerk of the state convict
department, are keeping the public in
formed of their operations He thinks
that If they really want to find the miss
ing man they would say little, as Lacy S
friends will communicate with him about
their methods.
Referring to reports that detectives are
in Dallas county and searching about the
district where Lacy lived before he was
made an employe of the state, Governor
O'NeaI said he had not employed men to
stay in the county and that detectives
there now are working on their own
initiative In an effort to get the reward
offered for Lacys arrest.
"If they want to arrest Lacy why are
they giving cut the information SO it can
be conveyed to him?" asked Governor
ONeal when he was questioned about a
story in a Selma newspaper that de-
tectives had planned a thorough search
in Dallas county.

JAMES \. REED ON
THE STAND IN STEEL
CORPORATION SUIT
Explains Carnegie Com
pany's Reason for Big
Pig Iron Purchase

New York. June 1s.-1t was not with the
idea of maintaining prices in the face
of a falling market that the Carnegie
Steel company bought 5000 tons of pig
could not make all the iron 1t required,
according to James II. Reed of Pittsburg,
chairman of the Carnegie company who
testified today in the governments dis
solution suit against the United States
Steel corporation.
Nor did the American Sheet and Tin
Plate company cut prices in 1902. and put
80 per cent of its competitors out of busi-
ness" Mr.. Reed continued, although the
minutes of a directors meeting attributed
the contemplation of such cut and effect
to II. p. Bope in about those words.
Testifying as to the so-called Gary din
ners, which he said he attended, Mr.. Reed
declared that no private conference pre-
ceded them so far as he knew, and he
did not believe any were held. Referring
to the problems that faced the steel In
dustry In 1907, the witness said they werc

NEW DEVELOPMENT WORK
CALLED OFFICIALS EAST

The speculation in this district as to
the dissolution suit of the Tennessee Coal,
Iron and Railroad company from the
Steel corporation, which was printed
yesterday morning, was of unusual inter-
est in Birmingham industrial circles.
That the dissolution case now being heard
will last some months yet is the general
opinion.
The absence of President George G.
Crawford and Frank II. Crockard, vice
president, in New York may have an in
cidental connection with this case, but
it was understood yesterday that they
are also engaged on a development here
of considerable magnitude. 1t is said their
