STEEL TRUST GETS

Schwab Testifies Carnegie Co. s
Good Front Deceived Rival
Concern to Pay.

NEW YORK, May 20.-Charles M.
Schwab resumed the witness stand
today for further examination by
government counsel in the suit TO
dissolve the United States Steel Cor
poration.
Before being questioned by Judge
Jacob NJ. Dickinson. the government
attorney. he. asked permission to cor
rect the testimony he had given yes
terday that the Illinois Steel Com
pany and the Carnegie Steel Com
pany. subsidiaries of the so-called
trust, were competitors before they
were absorbed. He said today that
the Illinois Company manufactured
"only small parts and was not in
reality a competitor of the Carnegie
Company.
The existence OF competition be-
tween these two concerns is one Of
the important points In the governs
ment's case against the corporatipn..
Judge Dickinson asked about cer-
tain pool agreements on rails in 1884,
The witness admitted that the Car
negIe Steel Company, of which he
was then president, had some agree
ments of that kind.
The government attorney then cad
a minute which set forth that L ag-
fish rail manufacturers proposed to
allot 100000 tons of rails to the Car
negle Company in England ami Cam
ada.
you say you never heard OF an in
ternational steel rail pool. What was
that?' he asked.
"Oh, that didn't appeal to US" Mr..
schwab said ut was not big enough.
/ never considered the prop osition.
Russia, Germany and France all
made rails and would have to be
dealt with in making such a POOL
There were pools going on all the
time, weren't there?n
Yes, all the time
But when the steel corporation
was formed they stopped"
They started to stop"
Another minute read by Judge
Dickinson indicated that the Carnegie
company had agreed to stay out of
the steel girder rail market for one
year for a consideration of 100000.
We stayed out chiefly because we
were not in condition to compete"
said Mr.. Schwab, but we put up a
good front and got the 100000"

POLICE TOLD TO ENFORCE
NEW GARBAGE ORDINANCE

Police precinct commanders were
ordered by the Board of Police Com
missioners yesterday afternoon to
rigidiy enforce the new garbage or
dinance, and, If necessary. to make
arrests. The action was taken by the

with the Board of Works, who placed
the responsibility for the insanitary
condition of the streets upon the
police.
The captains explained their mac
tivity by stating that they were short
on their quote of men, owing to the
numerous strikes in effect through
out the city, and said further that in
certain localities 1t would require the
constant vigilance of a policeman to
enforce the separating of garbage
and ashes. They were then instruct
ed to make arrests In the most fla
grant cases, provided other means
