SCHWAB BEFORE COMMITTEE SAYS U. S. STEEL CORPORATION IS CHILD OF HIS OWN BRAIN. Witness Is Led Into General Discus sion on Tariff on Steel—Think« $28 a Ton Too Low. New York.—Charles M. Schwab, now a competitor of the United States Steel Corporation, Saturday revealed that corporation before the house com mittee of inquiry as a child of his own brain, reared by J. Pierpont Mor gan. Mr. Schwab pictured the steel cor poration as a legal organization not formed to curtail output, restrict com petition or maintain prices, but to develop the steel industry of America. Aside from reciting the inside history of the origin of the steel corporation, he gave the committee much informa tion relating to traffic mergers, ore properties and steel manufactures. The witness denied that the recent Brussels conference of steel manu facturers of the world, from which he returned recently, had anything to do with fixing prices. "I want to assure you," he said, "that at no time was the question of prices of division of business territory even mentioned. We were there to tell the exact truth." Representative Sterling of Illinois led Mr. Schwab into a general dis cussion of the tariff on steel, particu larly as to the relations of the busi ness in this country and Germany. "The real purpose of the tariff on steel," Mr. Sterling suggested, "is to protect you in the home market. You say you can mannfacture rails as cheaply as Germany and you still have the advantage in that they must trans port to our market?" in an "Yes, but Germany can now trans port to our Pacific coast for less than we can ship from Pittsburg te the coast," said Mr. Schwab. "I do not want to argue the tariff," he said, "but I can not for the life of me see any disadvantage to America from liberal protection. It seems to me to be a mistake to have the tariff po low that a foreign country can even reach our Pacific coast. That s not the practice of Germany, France, Austria or Italy or of any foreign coun try except England." "You could make rails for less than $28 a ton and still make some profit, couldn't you?" Mr. Beall inquired. "Oh, yes," was Mr. Schwab's reply, "but I think $28 a ton is too low. As a matter of fact, since I have been president of the Bethlehem Steel com pany we have never sold rails for less than $30. We have sold them as high as $55 a ton." Mr. Schwab was a willing witness on all points but one. When Mr. Beall asked him concern ing an option given before the steel corporation combine by Andrew Car negie on his steel plants to Judge W. H. Moore and H. C. Frick—a deal never consummated, to the financial loss of Mr. Moore and Mr. Frick Mr. Schwab said the option was se cured for some one whose name never had been mentioned. "Who was it?" asked Mr. Beall. "I prefer not to say." "Was it someone now engaged the steel business?" "Nothing can induce me to say more," Mr. Schwab answered. "It was a purely personal and private mat ter," he added. in Fatal Accident On Beach. Galveston, Tex.—Jolted from her seat in Captain J. W. Munn's racing automobile while speeding at the rate of sixty-five miles an hour and crush ed beneath the rear wheel as the ma chine sped over a riâe in the course, Dorothy Nichols Munn, aged 17 years, the adopted daughter of Captain and Mrs. Munn, was instantly killed on the beach speedway Tuesday.
