CRITICIZE

RAILS MADE IN GARY IlltS

. In his wire from Wall Street last, night John Parr, financial representative of the Chicago Journal takes up the question of the quality of the stee! rails turned out at the Gary plant and handles the subject in quite a sensational way. He says: "Much more Is likely to be heard on the subject, of steel rails. The railroad people are very sore over the efforts of the Steel people to put the blame for the increasing defectiveness of rails upon them and retort that the trouble with rails and the cause of so much rail breakage are bad mlU practices. The Steel people contend that they can not make better rails at $28 a ton and the railroad people retort that the price of 28 Is already high, and that in present contrast with other steel prices it is unfalrly high. Further, they allege thst rav(is rolled at certain of the trust tnllli.

especially at the mil's of the. Gary plant, are highly unsatisfactory. n oiling Too Fast. "Indeed, there are steel people who admit that at the Gary plant the rolling practice is too fast to make good rails, and that the steel trust has laid itself open there to a big loss. The steel trust in its dealings with the railroads, reserves the right to roll

rails in any of its mills, whereas, at first, tbe buyers could specify the mills from which they wanted the rails. And owing to the extent to which the same financial interests dominate both the steel industry and the railroads, many

of the railroads are helpless It seems a technical subject, and yet, there is a

large life hazard in it for the public

It is the public that travels and pays

the toll In life for the defectiveness of rails. Other questions aside,, it seems clear enough that the steel companies

are producing worse rails at a higher

price than before the trust was formed. The railroads rest their main

contention upon that fact. Stlffer Competition.

"Not only ' is the Steel corporation on the defensive morally, politically

and economically, but it is about to

have to deal with a more formidable

kind of competition. The movement

of the independents to Invade the for eign markets Is very interesting

years, and at times became so bad I would become unconscious. I have been found in that condition many times. Physicians did not seem to be able to do me any good.

I believe I have at last found the remedy that suits my case." Thousands of people are sufferers from habitual constipation and while possibly realizing something of the danger of this condition, yet neglect too long" to employ proper curative measures until serious illness often results.
