JUDGE GARY DISCLAIMS
ALL MONOPOLY INTENTIONS
Declares That the United States Steel
Corporation Always Aimed to
Foster Competition.

New York, May 30.-Judge Ebert
II. Gary, chairman of the United States
Steel corporation and the man who
conducted many of the negotiations
which led to its organization, declared
on the witness stand Wednesday that
neither he nor the late j. p. Morgan
nor anybody else concerned had ever
during these negotiations discussed
the question of obtaining a monopoly
in the steel industry or Of suppressing
competition
Judge Gary was testifying as wit
ness for the defense in the suit to
dissolve the corporation under the
Sherman antitrust law.
He told in detail of the formation OF
the Illinois Steel company, Of the or.
ganization of the Federal Steel com
pany fioated by ]. P. Morgan. G Co..
which took over the Illinois company;
the Lorain Steel company and other
properties and of the acquisition of the
Federal by the United States Steel cor
poration.
The United States Steel corpora
ton grew" Mr.. Gary said. "out OF the
desire on the part Of the Federal Steel
company to obtain rounded out or
ganization for more economic produc-
ton and the development Of its export
trade"
The properties acquired by the Steel
company. he said, were worth more
than the s100.000.000 capitalization of
the corporation. On this point the
government has alleged that there was
$20,000,000 worth Of "watered" stock.

To the south of the city, where the

rushes down foaming and roaring

This charming spot was chosen for
the laying oul OF geological garden
ten years ago, wien its present direc-
tor, Lieut-Col MANI. commenced the
preliminary work. A few years later
the we'll known architect, Prof. Eman-
uel Won Seidl, took over the artistic
and architectural part OF the work.
The park has now been opened to tina
public for the last two years, not,
however. without having found much
trouble and opposition.
Coming to an open space In the
woods a herd OF buffaloes Is found.
Further along are stays from the
mountains of Asia and wild bears from
the forests Of Europe and India
In close vicinity of the buffaloes
from America are kept specimens of
the European bison from the swamps

the visitors from enjoying an unob-

give the impression of cages, have In

The wild sheep from the African

surroundings OF wood clad hills, and
It is extremely interesting TO watch
these animals climbing and jumping

A new feature of these geological
gardens is the lions terraces. Hero

In an old temple with columns and
walls and hidden corners can be seen

forms OF tigers haunting the ruins.

Prof Seidl. From the terraces of this
restaurant beautiful view over the
park cen be obtained. The background

ADOPT RECESS RESOLUTION
Senate Adopts Plan for Adjourning
Legislature from June IL to
January 10, 1914.

MadisOn.--The senate by a vote of
20 to IL has adopted Joint resolu-
ton introduced By Senator Scott call
ing for recess of the legislature from
June IL to January 10. The assembly
laid the resolution over until June 3
and fight is expected on the meas.
ure in that body. Followers of the
governor are said to be opposing any
move to adjourn at the present ses-
sion.
The Scott resolution enumerates a
number of reasons why an adjourn
ment would be advisable 1t states
that by June IL the session will al
ready have been longer than was the
expectation at the time OF converting,
and that only few important meas.
ures will remain for final considera-
ton at the proposed date of adjourn.

stated, will require several weeks
more of consideration by the commit.

and other subjects If a recess is TAX.
en-, is the contention. The appoint.
ment of special joint investigating
committees Is recommended, and 1t is
stipulated that no matters other than
reports from these committees and
privileged resolutions shall be consid-
cred at the January session except
upon unanimous consent of the mem
bers present
In some quarters the governors We
toes of the Hull marketing bill and
the women's suffrage referendum and
the defeat of the McGovern market
ing bill in the assembly are held to
have opened the way for the recess
plan. With tn ese important questions
removed from the schedule a smooth
er path for the champions of adjourn
ment is seen.
The defeat of the governors mar
keting bill by the assembly came after
four hours of debate, the vote stand
Ing 30 for and 81 against sending the
measure to engrossInent. Upon a mo-
ton to reconsider, the measure was
placed on the calendar for June 3 for
final action.
Under suspension of the rules, the
assembly passed the Hedding boxing
bill The measure provides for a
state commission to regulate boxing
bouts, the contests to be no-decision
affairs of not more than ten rounds
each, and three per cent of the pro.
ceeds must go to the state treasury.
The bill Is copy of the New York
law regulating boxing. Considerable
opposition to the bill developed, espe.
cially among rural members, who
characterized it as virtually legalizing
prize fights In Wisconsin.
The senate, by unanimous vote, has
confirmed Gov. McGovern's appoint
ment of Glenn. p. Host Milwaukee, as
state fire marshal. This action fol.
lowed defeat in ti,e assembly of a mo-
ton to reconsider the killing of the
bill proposing {. merger of the state
