Cfflfr REPORT 01)1

SMITH SAYS TRUST OWNS 75 PER CENT. OF ALL LAKE ORES. MUCH 'WATER' IS ELIMINATED Strength of United States Corporation Is Shown to Be Due to Its Ownership of Large Portion of Crude Product. Washington. President Taft made public lbs much discussed nnd long expected report on the United States Steel corporation snbmlttoU to him by tbe bureau of corporations. Signed ly Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner of corporations, tbe report makes no recommendations and Is almost wholly narrative In form. Mr. Smith declaros that restriction of competition was a prime object of tbe organizers of the steel corporation, or so-calltnl "trust." Capitalized at Jl.4p2.OOO.OO0. tho corporation, be asserts, hnd tangible property worth only JS2.000,000. By constant reinvestment of earnings, bowever, tho report points out, much ot the "water" in tbe company has been eliminated. The steel corporation now owns "5 per cent, of the lake ores, having recently coBcentratod Its efforts to securing these properties. On this point tbe report says: "Indeed, In so far as the steel corporation's position In the entire Iron and steel industries is of monopolistic character, it is chiefly through its control of ore holdings and tbe transportation of ore." , Discussing In detail how "the impending struggle of the giants" was averted almost over night by the formation of the great combination of combinations, taking In 160 subsidiary companies controlling (0 per cent of the total crude and linished stool production of the country, the report says: "Until 1S9S the bnlk or tho business was distributed among n very considerable number of concerns. There was sharp competition, modified by frequent pools of greater or less duration and effectiveness." Then came an era of great combinations, the report continues, with capitalizations ranging from J3O.0OO.O00 to J 100,000.000. mergers of mstny smaller companies, which, instead of olimlnat- ! ing competition, threatened to bring price cutting on a larger scale than ever (o:e. ln isoß.1900 there wero loreo great companies the Carnegie company. Federal Steel and National steei dominating the production ot crude and Eemi.aniShed products, and Blx concerns the American Steel and Wire. American Tin Plato. American ! IImh AmnrlMin Clnnl Vi. This was tho period when the "struggle of the giants" was Impending and when the formation of the United States Steel corporation was con- I ceivod and brought about. All nine of j the companies named were combined, 1 tnd later the Union Steel company, I the Clairton Steel company, and, ln 1007, tbe Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad company were taken over. The promoting syndicate putting the deal through netted JG2.6fiO.000 in cash. Tho commissioner finds that competilion, so tar as prices are concerneu. ' has been modified by the policy ot "co-ODeratlon" Inaugurated at the w "Gary dinners." about which so much has been said before the congressional steel Investigating committee. The present valuation ot the combine's tanglbl property Is placed at J1.1S7.0OO.000. as against J1.46S.OO0.000 outstanding securities, an increase of about J487.0OO.O00 in ptopcrty, while only nbout JCG.00O.OO0 bas been added to capitalization.
