Ga- ry appeared today as the second wit- ness in the inquiry being conducted by the “Steel trust” investizating com- mittee of the house. During his exam- ination he offered to lay all facts con- cerning the United States Steel cor- poration and to “stand or fall on the record.” denied that he was planning a trust to control steel products and the prices of stesl -throughout the worid; and frankly admitted that the stael corporation has absolute domi- nation of its subsidiary companies. Mr, Gary's examination will be con- tinued tomorrow, when the committes will seek to learn from him further facts relating to the taking over b the Stesl corporation of the Tennessee Coal and Iron company. Today Mr. Gary surprised the commitfee with the | statement that before its absorption the Tennessee company, while nomi- “independent of all other com- panies, was verr dependent so far as getting a livelihood was concerned,” a remark which he quickly asked to have expunged from the record on the xround that he had “no business to make it.” This remark, hewever, serveda to forecast that tomorrew Mr. Gary may make rtatements not in aceordance with the testimony given by John W. Gates as to the kighly prosperous con- dition of the Tennessce Cual and Iron company at the time of the “forced sale” to the Steel corperation. Mr. Gary toid the committee that the Ten- nessee Coal amd Tron company still owes the Steel corporation $10,167,000 for money advanced.

The Hyde Park branch of the wo- man’s organization argued that as s Frances Willard was the founder and crganizer of the Woman's Chn tian Temperance union and had been honored by the city of Chicago in naming the school for her, “the placing of Miss Rced in charge of that par- ticular school was an insult directed at the orzanizatien and at weman- hood in general.” The commitiee of the beard of edu- cation report that thers was nothing upon which the petition of the temper- ance union could be granted, but it reported a rule to guide teachers in \the future.

WILL EMBARASS DEMOCRATS President Taft Tries to Smooth the Way for Them and Presents a Plan Which Meets With Favor. Washington, June 1.—The crisis in the fight in the senate on Canadian reciprocity is expected when the dem- ocratic farmers’ free list bill is offercd as an amendment to the bill carrying the agreement into effect. That such an amendment will be*offersd for the urpose of embarrassing the democrat- c supporters of reciprocity seems cer- tain. President Holding Daily Conferences. It is toward this critical contingenay that President Taft gust now is devot- ing his attention. He is holding daily conferences at the White House in an effort to keep republican and demo- cratic senators alike in line for the pact. Believes It Will Pass Senate. President Taft is certain that the reciprocity bill -will pass the senate by a comfortable majority if it can be brought to 2 final vote without amend- ment. He feels that the test for the true friends of reciprocity will come with the proposed amendments to be offered from the floor. Be Reported by Finance Com- mittee. r. Taft has recently had assurances that the bill will be reported by the finance committee without amendment and without recommendation. This is what he greatly desires. Amendment Would Kill Bill. The president feels that any amend- ment in the senate will defeat the bi!l and he believes that to b2 the purpose of some senators who have proposed amendments. The proposed Root, Lodge and Nelson amendments have brought the president into sharp con- flict with these senators, but he has not hesitated to express his views re- garding them. Taft Trying to Help Democrats. Fully cognizant of the fact that he must depend upon the almost solid vote of the demccrats in the senate to carry the reciprocity bill through, President Taft has been endeavoring to devise a means to help them out of the dilemma that will be presented when they are asked to vote for or against the free list bill as a rider o the reciprocity measure. Don’t Want Free List Bill Stifled. Some democratic senators have told the president frankly they would vote against the free list amendment if they could be assured that the “stand pat’ republicans would not stifie in com- mittee the free list bill as it came from the hous: and thus deprive the southern democratic senators of the epportunity in open senate properiy to record their votes on the measure. Taft Suggests a Way Out. President Taft fully appreciates ths position in which the senate democrats find themselves, but he thinks he has found a solution of the problem. He has suggested that a motlon by the democrats that ths finance committea be discharged from corsideration of the free list bill and that it be put upon iis passage would serve the pur- pose of the democrats in making their attitude a perfectly clear ons, and ha has further expressed confidence in the fairness of the American people to recognize the purpoje of those who would attempt the free list method of defeating reciprocity. May Be Demooratic Solutien. The plan as outtned has by broadly discussed among democratic senators and it is said that they be- lieve with other friends of recipreciry that it is an acceptable soluton of the difficulty.
