was very religious. The meals she
put up. however. were the limit for
badness. 1t was her habit, however,
to ask some guest to say grace at
each meal. One day a travelling man

STEEL TRUST
SUIT STILL
ON
JUDGE GARY TESTIFIES THAT IT IS
PERFECTLY PROPER TO SECURE
Agreement FROM SELLER NOT
TO GO into BUSINESS AGAIN.
METHODS OF STEEL
TRUST DISCLOSED

New York, n Y, June 11.--Judge
Ebert H. Gary. chairman of the Unit,
ed States Steel corporation. testified
today that he thought under some
circumstances" it was perfectly prop
err for a purchaser to enter into a
contract with seller that the latter
should not compete with the purchaser
after having sold out to him.
Judge Gary was under cross-exami
nation in the hearings of the suit to
dissolve the corporation.
Judge Jacob NJ. Dickinson, attorney
for the government after reading from
minutes of the finance committee of
the corporation in 1908 which set
forth that the corporation proposed
to purchase the Oliver ore properties
under condition that the owners keep
out of the ore business, asked the
witness if that came under his policy
of fostering competition.
That would depend upon circum.
stances" said the witness.
1T seems to me that if purchaser
OF any commodity or business should
secure as part of the contract, an
agreement from the seller that he
should not enter into competition with
him, that would be perfectly proper
and under many circumstances would
not restrain trade"

CURRENCY LEGISLATION
IS OPPOSED
SENATE BANKING AND CURRENCY CON-
MITTEE GOES ON RECORD AGAINST
ANY SUCH LEGISLATION THIS SESSION.

Washington, D. c., June 11.-At a
meeting of the senate banking and
currency committee today, Democrats
and Republicans expressed opposition
to an effort to put through currency
legislation at the special session and
we're confident that the introduction
of a bill in the senate would lead to
long debate retard the progress Of
the tariff bill and keep congress here
until November.
Senators Hitchcock, O'Gorman, and
Bristow showed opposition to such
legislation at this time. Chairman
Owen was of the opinion that bill
should be put through this summer.
He probably will bring in measure
within few weeks, but members OF
the committee declared today 1t
would be a personal bill, not repre-
senting the views of the whole COM
mittee and that it might not be re-
ported at this session.
One member of the committee said
that talks with members of Presi-
dent Wilson's cabinet had not CON
vinced him that presidential mess
age on currency was to be looked
for in the near future.
Chairman Owen called today'S
meeting to explain features of the
glass bill which probably will be in
troduced shortly and debated in the
house.
Some senators feel that the dis
cussion in the house will inform the
country and pave the way for action
in the senate next winter.

WAS there any state of insurrec-

declaration of martial law" asked
Mr., Belcher.
THE governor evidently thought
there was" said the witness.
General Elliott said that he knew
that Representative S. B. Davis, for
mer county prosecutor, had told Gov
ernor Glasscock that he could not
secure action in the courts to sub
due the riotious condition. This, he
said, was one of the reasons for
which the governor declared martial
law.
The witness said that his troops
had captured five or six machine
guns in the affected district. After
the first martial law period ended,
General Elliott said that members OF
the state militia, officers, and men
were employed by the coal operators
to act as watchmen or mine guards"
They remained as guards, he said
even after martial law was again de-
clared and the troops again took
charge of the field.
General Elliott told of the opera
ton of an armored train, on which
machine gun was mounted, which
made four trips up Paint and Cabin
creeks. He could not say who man

NATIONAL GOOD
ROADS CRUSADE
; Is PROMISED

Washington, June 11--A definite
start toward the development of a
comprehensive system of good roads
construction the country over will be
made at the present extra session
of congress, and legislation to carry
/ on the work will be enacted at the
general legislative session which con
venes in December.
This is the first time in the his
tory of the United States that such
task has been actually undertaken.
There have been, of course, good
road movements in the individual
states, and perhaps one would find in
the history of the original states an
instance or two where the federal
congress lent hand to construct a
road over which the mail could be
carried, but so far as an effort to pro-
vide a network of highways, which
will accord equal benefits to every
section of the inhabited area of this
country the about-to-be inaugurated
plan is the real beginning.
1t is the intention of the Demo
cratic leaders to create two commit
tees, one in the house and the other
in the senate, to be called the com
mittee on good roads. The house
committee will be composed of 21
members. All information and data
pertaining to the subject of roads will
be transferred to these committees
from the committees on postoffices
and post-roads, where it is now neat
ly pigeonholed.
In general, the course which the
committees of the house and sen
ate will follow in preparing plan
for system of good roads. will
center about the development of ri
raj mail routes on which the mail ca',
De carried expeditiously. These mail
routes will radiate from every posi-
office, except those which are in the
cities. and which will connect with an
other. so chat eventually magnificent
set of highways will be created. The
federal government will maintain eA-
pert supervision over the construc-
tion of these roads and the ex.
renditures Of money, by the bureau
which has the work in charge will
depend on the states acceptance Of
the scheme of development as out
lined by the government. engineers.
One of the plans that is being
pressed hard is the scheme devised
by former Secretary Jonathan Bourne
Of Oregon, now chairman of the
joint committee on federal aid in the
of post roads. He pro-
POSES an expenditure of three billion
billion for construction
and two billions for construction, e1
