THEIR FIRST MEETING Tonight the newly elected committee men of Gary, Tolleston, Griffith and the rural district will meet at the Gary hotel at 7:30 o'clock to form the Calumet township central committee and to choose chairman and other officers. The feature of the meeting will be the contest over the chairmanship. Ma jor John MacFadden, the present "in( cumbent, and H. C Francis are out for the chairmanship and J. J. Kelley and two or three others are talked of as dark horses. Vice Chairman Peter Lamb, Gary's officer on the county central committee, will preside at the meeting. While Major MacFadden and Colonel Francis, each say that they have the chairmanship cinched, friends of both declare that the utmost harmony will prevai' In fact. ice Chairman Lamb and several others are said to have ransack ed old attics yesterday afternoon 'in search of hymn books containing har monjr songs. So surcharged with har mony la the atmosphere that If : any songs, are chanted tonight- th4 -t4 first one . will be 'The tie. thatj binds. - There -is a tendency among the lead

ers and those who will be candidates

for offices to let Francis and MacFadden run it out themselves and then for all to turn in and support the winner. The major has demonstrated that he is a master politician by his able management of the last campaign. On the other hand, Francis has done good work for the party and he has the reputation of sticking to, a thing once he gets after It and neither threats, promises or sledge hammers can dislodge him. Homer Bayonets the Major. Homer Carr. claiming to represent some of the leaders of the party who are standing by and not showing favoritism to either candidate, sprung some discordant notes by going out and advocating Impartiality personally and doing Just the opposite editorially. WILL SETTLE THE i QUESTION TONIGHT The precinct committeemen met last night in the office of City Clerk Walter L Spencer in the East Chicago city hall to elect officers for the coming ' campaign. All of the members but two were in attendance and they were present by proxy.G. Mack Foland was elected temporary chairman and Walter Spencer temporary secretary and after this had been accomplished. Judge George Reiland placed the name of C. L Kirk, last year's city chairman. In nomination to succeed himself. Mr. Kirk was unanimous elected, his election being followed by the nomination and election of Thomas O'Connell, vice chairman, to look after the campaign In. Indiana Harbor, Waltr Spencer secretary and C. E. Fowler, treasurer. Remarks were made by G. Mack Foland, Joseph Hartley and Ed O'Donnell in the course of which they felicitated each other and themselves and republicans generally on the harmony that prevails In the party's ranks In the Twin Cities. It-was decided that it is too early to decide on headquarters and too early to begin the active cam paign as the first registration Is not until May 1. filflST STEEL WAGES BELOW ACTUAL NEED Washington, Feb. 2. That 65 per cent, of the employes of the United States Steel Corporation In the Pitts burg district earn less than the actual cost of subsistence of the av erage American family In Pittsburg, was a calculation made at the steel trust hearing yesterday by Louis D Brandeis . 'The Associated Charities of Pitts burg have computed the cost of bare existence of a family of a husband, a wife an three children In that city" at $768 a year," said he. "By working twelve hours a day, 365 days a year. 65 per cent, of the steel workers there earn $1.60 less than the amount actual ly required for the bare cost of living." BnuadeU Make Retort. "How about other industries which pay an average of 16 cents an hour?" asked D. A. Reed, attorney for the steel corporation. - , "We are not here to extol your neigh bors. They are not under Investiga tion, you are." retorted Mr. Brandeis. Mr. Brandeis declared that in ten years the steel corporation had taken from the American people $650,000,000 in excess of a liberal profit on its Investment. ' "This enormous profit," he said, "has been used to grind down its employes to the misery of their present condi tion." ' Relief To Be Undertaken. When Mr. Brandeis had finished. At torney Reed, for A' a steel corporation. announced that a relief of Its workmen was about to be undertaken. "A committee of stockholders Is working on a plan to correct conditions which have been criticised," he said. "May I ask whether this was prompt ed by the company or a stockholder? Interrupted Mr. Brandeis. "It was proposed by Charles M. Ca bot of Boston," answered Mr. Reed. The committee then adjourned , to meet at the call of the chairman. Worse Than Slavery. Mr. Brandeis testified yesterday that conditions In- the steel industry, In so far as the workingmen were concern ed, were worse than those of slavery days. Tne steel laborers, he said, were worse off than slaves, as their condi tion of living was deplorable and the corporation did not take the personal interest In them that slave owners did in their human property. In his argument Brandeis said: "This corporation In ten years has taken away from the American people $650,000,000 in excess of a liberal re turn on the value of capital Involved. The horrible conditions among its em ployes-sare the result of a compulsory elimination from the rights of men of unionism. The employes have prac tically been bade slaves of the corpo ration. It Is a condition to oppression It Is alien to the rights of every Amer lean citizen. Moreover, the Condition Is not accidental." , Many Are illiterate. Brandeis pointed out'that 65 per cent of all the trust's employes were foreigners, and very few of them could read or write. He said he 'had been in formed that employes of the Pittsburg Steamship company had been compelled to throw their union cards overboard In order to keep their Jobs. "The steel corporation," he continu ed, "Is a dominant force in politics in milling towns. One employe t old me that he had been informed under threat of discharge that he must vote the trust ticket. There Is only one way to meet the situation: do not allow or ganizations to rise with the power of this corporation. There Is no hope for American democracy if you do.

STEEL TRDST SAYS IT BROKE (10 LAW Trenton. X. J., Feb. 2. Denial of al leged violations of the anti-trust law Is made by the United States Steel Corporation. Its subsidiaries, and directors In their answers to- the government's dissolution suit. The answers were filed Thursday morning in the United States district court here. Five separate an swers will be filed among thirty-three defendants. The effect of Its organization, the corporation declares, has been to cheapen production, effect economies, and increase foreign trade from $8,000,000 to $60,000,000 annually within ten years. So long has the government acquiesced in its existence, the answer says, that it is now toow late, as a matter of equity. to Insist that its organization was Illegal. Nothing; Withheld from Rooeevelt. Nothing was withheld from President Roosevelt by Messrs. Gary and Frick on Nov. 1, 1907, the answer says, when they sought his consent to the corporation's proposed purchase of the Tennes see Coal, Iron and Railroad company; nor were the Gary dinners productive of agreements to regulate prices. The answers made public Wednesday night are those of the steel corporation, Andrew Carnegie. John D. Rockefeller, Sr., John D. Rockefeller Jr. and Edmund C Converse. The Rockefellers made a joint answer. The Messrs. Rockefeller deny that they had an active part in the forma tion or management of the corporation. the elder Rockefeller declaring he has had no immediate relation to the iron or steel business since 1901. Carnegie Kntera Denial. Mr. Carnegie says he had no part in the plans for organizing the corporation and no voice, direct or advisory. In Its management. He admitted selling the Carnegie Steel company to the United States Steel Corporation, but denies that the acquisition by the Car negie company of Us subsidiaries was in restraint of trade. The answer of Edmund C. Converse, a director of the united states Steel Corporation, Is similar to the corpora tion's answer. s Each of the defendants prays that the be dismissed. The answers filed yesterday with group of land and mining companies those filed Monday by the Minnesota and five individuals named as trustees will complete the answers from all fifty-six defendants named in the suit. The next step will be the filing of repli cations by the government which must be done within thirty days unless an extension of time Is granted. After that a commissioner will be appointed to take testimony. " IN STEEL AND IRON MARKETS Active Buying of Southern Metal. A leading cast Iron pipe Interest has purchased 36,000 tons of southern Iron on a basis of 19.25. Birmingham, for forge and $9.50 for No. S, according to the Iron Trade Review. More southern makers are asking $10.25 and f 10.60 for No. 2 foundry, but find It difficult to sell at new prices. Ten-dollar Iron still is obtainable. The Eastern Steel company. Pottsville, Pa., which recently leased the two Warwick furnaces at Pottstown, is now Inquiring for 150,000 tons of Lake Superior Iron ores. Extremely low prices are being made by fabricators, which Indicates that concessions are obtainable on plain material. The St. Louis Southwestern railway has let the contract for a 335foot draw span, 692 tons, to the Wisconsin Bridge and Iron company. This structure will be erected at Clarendon, Ark. . The Grand Trunk system, it is understood, has-ordered 10,000 tons of Standard sections from the Illinois

Steel company in addition to the tonnage reported previously. The same maker has taken 2,500 tons from the

Chicago Junction railway. In general, however, the railways continue to show hesitation in placing business. Car builders are quoting higher nrices and car buvlne has fallen off accordingly. The Grand Trunk has ordered 500 automobile cars. The Illinois Central is In the market for 100 coaches. The St. Paul ' Is under stood to be in the market for from 500 to 1,000 box cars and 600 refrigerator cars Heavy buying of cast iron pipe and In turn the placing of large pig iron or ders by pipe foundries have caused a stiffening in the price of southern iron. according to the Iron Age. Chicago Is making large demands on cast Iron pipe works. In the last week the city has placed 6.000 tons and the Peoples Gas comnanv haa bonsrht 20.000 tona

Next week the city win open bids for in the mbtrth, then, used as a handle. 25,000 tons. The pipe trade Is muchiThw miVa -i.. u-i., ,.v. m-l

more active than at this time; last year. NEW COMMITTEES.

Numerous offers have been made to the management for the use of the dance hall by several clubs, but as their credentials did not come up to Mr. Hall's standard, they were refused. The hall will continue to be Gary's leading place of its kind. FRANK HAAS TO LEAVE LAPORTE Frank Maas has decided that, In or der to properly han&le the Immense volume of real estate business which he has worked up In Gary, he should make his residence, there and conse quently will dispose of hig Monroe , street property at once and move to Gary.

Rumblings of some kind that emanate from the south part of the 'city are declared to result , from activities on the part of Alderman M. X. Cast'eman, who Is now said to , be planning revenge for the failure In the courts to oust him. . . Another meeting of the Gary common council Is to be held on next Monday night. Failure of Aldermen Hess, Rowley and Feuer to get through legislation for Impeachment rules- on Wednesday night and yesterday's triumph, in the court haa given -Castle-man new ambition, and. now scalp-taking may be expected.. , Eooajntrle Work Basket. v Thar are workbags made ot turtles.
