'Trust -Buster" Kellogg Admits He Was Special Counsel For Steel Corporation Subsidiaries. PICUL SUSiTTS TO THS Washington, Juno 13. Edwin F. Atkins acting head of- IHY American Sugar Redo ing Wlillo testifying to-day-be- i 'fore the House Speolul Hugar Committee, made the prediction that the sugar bill of lie American people would be materially 4educeduna.j)robttblu.j,csult of tariff tie- creases on raw nugur.

The witness ulsoj dec-lured that the placing of raw sugar or. the free list would drive many beet sugar producers of the United Blates nut of business, us well as crippling IOulHlana rune producers. Representative Madison, of Kan-nun, tried to get the witness to tlx a point to which the duty might be safely reduced, hut Mr. Atkins declined to do ho. ii The i tariff discussion occurred in connec- tlon with testimony regarding the prices of sugar about which Mr.

Atkins testified practically all the day. At the close of the session Chairman liardwlck announced the committee was through with. Mr. Atkins "for the present and to-morrow would hear Charles R. Ilcike, formerly Secrelary-of-the 1 American Sugar Refining Company.

The Cuban Profit. Mr. Madison led iir. Atkins to admit that in dollars and cents Cuba profited- practically nothing from the "favored nation" treaty with this country nu sugar importations. When Cuba had sugar to sell, the price went down so low that the differential was wiped out, but when that country had no sugar to sell, the differential was avall- able.

The "committee sought'to find out If the verniers sold reftnvd sugar any cheaper as a- result of the low prices attending the marketing of the Cub.m sugar crop. Mr. Atkins was nut sure and will fllo a state ment covering the point. Chairman Hard- wkk took the witness through a review of -sugar prices. Mr.

Atkins said thu differ 4 encea between thu coxl of the raw nugur and the selling price of refined sugar left the refiners ut present at R1 cents a hundred pounds to cover the cost of refining and proilts. Tills difference was only 71 cents In lsKi and cents In IsMT. in 1.HN8 after the organization of the American Sugar Company the difference rote to tl "Not so many sellers," suggested Mr. liardwlck. "Probably sonic bud gone out of business?" "Some," replied Mr.

Atkics, laconically. Difference Dropped. In tlm difference dropped to 72 rents. "That-Stop was duo to competition with tlie Pennsylvania rellncrlcs, wasn't It?" asked Mr. Hnrdwlrk.

probably," whs the resnnnse. In lsirj the amount cl.illn.-J by the. re- liners as prolli. It was shown, had risen to IU3. Mr.

liardwlck askid If the Pennsylvania retlnerlcs were no longer competing. "No," responded Mr. Atkins. The reduction nf ihe differential to ems In WSJ was explained on probably due lo a trade war irflween the American Sugar Refining Company and the Arbuckl.j refineries. When In the differential rose was madu to competitive snnea had bceu established by the American Sugar Company to control prices.

Mr. Atkins, who has been acting Jiead for but two years, declared that he was unable to answer this uucstlon from personal knowledge. California Refineries. Mr. Atkins declared, however, that the American Sugar Kellning Company owned practlnally a mujorlty of slock In the sugar refineries In California, and that it did not nltompt to compete- with them.

He gave us the reason for this abandonment of the coast business the freight rate difference of in. slsted. was the principal reason for the fall-use of competition. The witness said that per cent of the Western Sugar itellulng Company In California, was owned by the American Sugar Kenning Company, while the Spreckles family owned the other 30 per cent. Thc "American also owned 4u per rent in the Alamada 8ugnr Itcftning Company.

What the purpose of the jiurclmse of this stock was Mr. Atkins was unable to tell tke coinmiticu. The sugar tariff, according to Mr. Atkins, enables the Coast sugar refineries lo make a larger margin of profit than the Kastern refineries. The price of sugar Is the same on the and the Atlantic Coasts, but the Pacllle manufacturers are nlile to sell as far Kust as Chicago, while the Kastern refineries cannot ship further West than Kansas City and Omuhu, he said.

Free Raw Sugar. "The reason Is that the Pacific Coast has free raw sugar," said Mr. Atkins. "Tne refineries there get tho Hawaiian and Philippine sugars without duty, while we havo to pay $1 iU duty on each 1) pounds of Cuban sugar." "Then sugar ought to be lower on the Pacific Const?" asked representative "Yes." said Mr, Atkins, who added that he knew nothing of the conduct of the far Western companies. He did not know Mr.

Spreckles, he said, nor what Interest the latter had In various beet sugar companies of the West "I haven't been able lo get any Information from any of the companies In which we are largely Interested." said Mr. Atkins. "We are minority stockholders and they refuse to tell- us anything about their "TRTJST-BUSTER" KELLOGG Admits He Was Special Counsel For Steel Corporation Subsidiaries, racut. Mirtrca to tss sswruuia. Washington, June 18.

"Trust Buster" Frank B. Kellogg, who was special counsel ef the Department of Justice In the prosecution of tho Btandard Oil Company, today admitted to the Stanley Steel Trust Investigating Committee that for years he companies of the t'nlted States Steel Corporation In Minnesota, Ho also added that be had po apolog ie to make for thla connection. Chairman Stanley (aid the committee would lumraon any one be he the. President of the United States or J. Plerpont Morgan 4n order to ascertain how certain railroad owned by Steel Trust were able to declare enormous divldenda on small capltalliation.

It la probable former President Roosevelt and Mr. Morgan will be asked to appear before the committee when it holds sessions in New York. Mr. Kellogg referred to a letter ha had sent to the committee In which he explained that he and his firm, Davis, Kellogg It Severance, had for years represented the Du-lulh and Iron Range Railroad and the Du-luth, Mesaba and Northern Railroad, sub- I miliary companies since 1U01 of the Bteel Corporation. Denying that while acting as "There has been a good deal said." Mr.

Kellogg told the committee, "about my connection with the Government and with the lary companion- to the Steel Coriwratlon They wereTurely local. They did not concern the Steel Corporation as an organisation. "Just prior to 1906 I argued some mineral rights rases In Minnesota and presented a bill for This, I believe, was approved by the Bteel Corporation In 1H07. Since llt07 I have given my time to the Government in the Btandard Cdl and a few other cases until they were concluded, and I have done little, If any, other business." jameaMtn yiey, former ice r-resiaenr-t the Bteel Corporation, who was also a witness and will continue to-morrow, is the only corporation witness under subpoena to-appeaf here-at-present; Several Western witnesses are to he heard, and the committee then probably will adjourn over until the wool bill is passed and meet later in New York. Several New York witnesses huve been, told they would be examined in New York.

Mr. Gayluy made the assertion that the formation of the Steel Corporation In 1101 put un end to pools and agreements In that Industry. He also denied that combination of agreements existed to-day in the steel trade. Prior to 10U1, Mr. Oayley averred, there wero agreements by which manufacturers were apportioned certain shares of the steel, business and those who failed to get their allotted share were taken care of with a proportion of the general prortts.

Mr. Gayley also declared that for a lonff time before 1WT the price of steel rails was practically uniform at (28 a ton. It repre as an equltabale price. He said a fraternal feeling had always existed between rail-makers because of a desire to produce the best possible rails. Ha slso admitted that previous to Usui agreements were made between the various manufacturers regarding other steel products.

In which the Carnegie Steel Company participated. These agreements provided fines tot! violations. When asked-who could explain the agreements and fines Mr. Gayley said he presumed Charles M. Schwab, the President, and K.

A. Peacock, the Vice President of the Carnegie Company, could Icll. COST OF PRODUCING Yellow Pine Increased 88 Per Cent in TJecadeT Says Lumberman Kansas City, Juno 13.

Mr. Gursucli admitted there was such a list, but said It was merely a business guide for members. Ho said he did not "recall ever sending out lists blacklisting wholesalers. Charles 8. Keith, President of the Central Coal and Coke Company, of this city, was the only other witness examined.

He startled hi hearers with the statement that the cost of producing yellow pine had Increased SW per cent from 1WS to VMm. He ald It was the supply and demand, and not the price list Issued by the Yellow Pine Manufacturers' Association, that controlled prices. Ho said the only curtailment of output recommended by the association was that of U4. mentioned yesterday by U. A.

Inig. of the Ing-IIell Lumber Company. Keith explained there were other business rensori for a company curtailing Its output. For instance, he said, that in the company could not get transportation facilities to handle Its regular output and was forced to curtail It rather than pay labor to cut timber that couMnot be shipped. Mr.

Keith denied there was any agree- to 75 cents, ihe witness agreed. It might1 nient to llx or control the price of yellow have been that President llavemeyer. of Pine, or tn limit competition In the state of Iliu American, and tho A buck lea had reached an agreement.

Mr. Kdwards said: "It is you women who must remedy these conditions, and the Consumers', League is the best agency through which to work. It Is the consumer who holds the balance of power in the economic world to-day, and the responsibility for sweat shops, fire-trap factories and overworked glrjs rests on the consumer. Kmployers will listen to you, their customers, for without you they could not exist." Tho speaker had found little boys who worked 17 hours per day In shoe-shlnlng shops, and tho speeding-up system had wrecked the health of some young girls of id.

The report of the Bubway Committee, submitted to the Board of Estimate to-day, proposes a compromise by which both Interboro Rapid Transit Company, which operates the present subway, and the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, which has control of most of the lines In Brooklyn, must -make concessions to the city. The Interboro will have to permit the Brooklyn Company's Invasion of Manhattan, and the Brooklyn Company will have to give New Yorkers a five-cent fare to the great pleasure grounds at Coney Island.
