Appeals from State taxes were heard this morning by Judge Kunkel in the case of the Commonwealth against the Filbert Paving and Construction Coin I pany, or Wilmington, Delaware, and! others. The Commonwealth was represented by Deputy Attorney General Fleit.

and Davies, while Congressman Olmsted and Mr. Stamm represented the defendant company. It was claimed by Mr. Fleitz that th defendant company Was engaged in the construction of cement floors and was chartered under the State of Delaware. An office was opened at 1 207 Sansom street, Philadelphia, and neceptrd contracts in this State.

It was claimed the company was liable to tax for this business, but Congressman Olmsted said the act under which the tax was levied stipulated "manufacturing corporations" and claimed this company is not a manufacturer. The Court will decide the case. Another case argued was that of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania against the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad Company. Three suits were involved but it was agreed upon by both sides that all should be tried as one. This case is to recover taxes for fifteen years, from 1885 to 1900, from owners of stock of the railroad company who reside in Pennsylvania.

The taxes ere levied under the acts of 1S87 18S9 and 1901. The Court will decide upon the right of the Commonwealth to tax. THE AUDITORIUM RINK.

United States Steel I Gainj comcY's REronT for IiKCOimS Kooktngs JCat'li Month Tivonty fivo Vrr Cent. Oor Month IVcccdins New York, March 21. The report of the United States Steel Corporation for year ended December 31 last shows gross receipts of $757,014,767, an increase over 1908 of 60,257, Sll. The cost of manufacturing and producing and operating expenses amounted to $564,166,177, an increase over the previous year of $47, 082,822. The earnings for the year 1907 after payment of general, ad ministratiye and selling expenses, interest charges and including a charge of $35,000,000 for ordinary repairs and maintenance were $160, 964, 673, an increase of $4,340,400.

Surplus Xet Income The surplus net income for the year after payment of appropriations for sinking funds, depreciation, replacement, interest on bonds and div idends was $69,179,836, an increase of $6,436,976. From this amount there was deducted $35,500,000 for new plants and construction and capital obligations, and $18,500,000 was set aside for construction of the plant at Gary, leaving a balance of surplus for the year of $1 5,179,836, an increase of $2,436,976. The report includes the operations of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad since November 1 only. The actual shipments of products of the United States Steel Corporation were 10,451,488 tons, a decrease of 410,937 tons. Exports for the year amounted to 1,014,082 tons of steel commodities, a decrease of 6 per but the gross receipts therefrom exceeded those of 1906 by 16 per cent.

Mention is made of the fact that the corporation has purchased a site for a new plant in St. Louis county, Minnesota, near Duluth. It is announced that $1,000,000 has been reserved from the employes' bonus fund for pensions. Concluding their report Chairman E. H.

Gary and President W. E. Corey say: "During the first six months of 1907 orders for steel products were received equaling substantially the maximum capacity of the mills. Subsequently there was a marked falling off in the new business offered. As a result the tonnage of unfilled orders on the books at December 31, 1907, was only 4,624,553 tons of all kinds of manufactured steel products.

In common with other lines of industry there was a material reduction in sales during the latter part of 1907. However, the bookings for January were twenty five per cent, better than December, and for February twenty five per cent, better than January. As this report goes to press the bookings per day are at least twenty five per cent, larger than those of February. The management express hopeful views of the future." PIIIU. CONFERENCE Appointments For Year AYill lie Announced 'Dicsdiiy.

By Associated Press. Philadelphia. March 21. Tabernacle Church, in which the Philadelphia Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church Is being held, was filled to overflowing to day when the session was called to order by Bishop Cranston. Hundreds of Methodists were drawn to the church, in a desire to learn the assignments of visiting clergymen to city pulpits for to morrow's services.

A large amount of routine business was taken up at to day's session and disposed of. It is said that unless the Shaffer investigation interferes with the program, the conference will be ready to adjourn on Tuesday, when the appointments for the ensuing year will be announced. Members of conference are awaiting with interest the bringing up of the question of clerical delegates to the General Conference to be held in Baltimore. It is the intention of the pastors, it is said, to demand that five of the seven delegates to be elected shall be active pastors. According to precedent, four of the seven delegates would be the presiding eldors of the conference.

A strong feeling against, this procedure has developed, and it is probable that at least three, and perhaps four of the delegates will be pastors not ''holding official positions in the conference. Two of the presiding elders at least will be selected. The lay conference selected its delegates yesterday.
