James, Mr. Morgan and every other
man. whether he -be a "bull" in Walt street or a common thug somewhere, else, is obeying- the law as'lt Is written. I'm an old-fashioned Jeffersonian Democrat and I am asking no new thing no proposing no panaceas. Just follow the law that'n my creed." " "But how about the trust probe?" the congressman was asked. "And
how long will It last?" Depends Oa Corporation. "If the steel company gives us the Information as readily as Mr. Gary offered' It, It will be a matter of only a few months after the hearing is reopened Oct. 1." he replied. "But If it palavers around and hedges on turning over its books, which it has not done so far.
the probe may go on for several years."

"The Idea of taking up Gary's piar. of government supervision of corporations Is like thinking one could leap from the roof of one of these skyscrapers and stop at the fifth floor," said the congressman. "It can't be done. The result would be complete srovernment ownership within a short time. And to that I,' personally, am radically oposed. I believe in competi

COMPANY SHADES PRICES OF STEEL
Big Corporation Meets Competitors, Encouraging Movement in Trade.
It comes from an authoritative source that the United States. Steel corporation is shading in prices, contrary to public announcement, and is in consequence getting a larger volume of orders. This appears to be one of the few encouraging things in the general
outlook .at this t
corporation is
along moderately competitive lines, and
getting- it, will have a. beneficial
fluence on sentiment when the amount of unfilled tonnage' is reported. . There Is no suggestion of a price war. but competitors have" lor a long time been adapting their prices more nearly to the demand than has the Steel corporation. A little unbending should do no harm, but on the contrary ,
encourage a movement In trade.
It Is reported from Chicago that railroads centering in that city have com
pleted preparations for handling a
heavy volume of passenger traffic with
in the next two months, due to two fevers colonists and hay. ; Indiana, It is said. Is among the first contributors
to both classes. , .
. Hay .fever already is gripping Its .victims, and th annual exodus to climates . where "'kerchoos" are un-r known is under way. Indiana passenger traffic men report . an increase in
business to Northern points. The "col
onist fever." it is declared will . not
reach its height until , about Sept. ,18
, when special colonist .rates to Pacific
.coast points will be in force.
i Several western roads already have announced special colonist rates, and ! the usual demand is expected. During i the colonist period last spring Jt was estimated, that, fully 90.00 ' persons ! took: advantage of the ' low fares to
to reach points on the Pacific slope, and I the ; record this fall is expected to
; eclipse that total by a wide margin.
1 Extra tourist slteprs will b rrandled on regular trains on at least one of the leading roads operating between Chicago and Omaha. At Omaha the
sleepers will be assembled into special j colonist trains, which will be operated I on fast schedules. First-class limited
' trains, it is said, will not make better time than the colonist flyers. A feat-
ttre of the latter will be reduced rates
for dining car service.
