SINGLE ROAD AND OOPPER MINE General Counsel Steele and Managing “WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.~The Interesting spectacie of the Morgan-Guggenhsim syn- dicate, through legal representatives ap poaring before a corfgressional committee to justity it operations in the devetopment of Industries in Alaska, today packed the room of the senate committes on terri- torles, It wam denled that the syndicate had a monopoly of any industrial interest Senator Beveridge recontly received a letter from J. P. Morgan & Co., asking permission’ to serid representatives to ans- wer ‘“exaggerated reports printed in the magazines and newspapers of the work of the syndlcate formed by that company and the Messrs. Guggenheym.” The permission was given and today John N. Steele, gen- eral counsel for the syndicate, and Stephen Birch, the managing difector, appeared. Mr, Birch was put on the stand and his story drawn out by Mr. Steele. It resulted in festimany to the effedt that all ef the money spent in the enormous development of Alaskan resources had been furnished by the syndicate itselt; that the Morgan- Guggénhitem syndieate had not fssued a single bond or & share of stock; that the syndicate had never recelved anything from the government in tire Way of money, grants of land or spectal rights. Ovns Sing! Raflroad. It was testifiéd further that the syndi- eate owned one rallroad and had no inter- ohe copper mine and had no Interest in any other and owned no coal lands at all. Testimony was given about the nego- tlationa for the Cunningham claims, but it was sald these hinged upoh patents being issued for the claims and that these nego- tiations had come to nothing. The rallroad owned by the syndicate {s now 102 miles long and is to be extended to 19 miles. Both Messrs. Steele and Birch insisted | that there was no truth in reports that | the syndicate had or was seeking a monop- | oly of railroads, steamship lines, fisheries, | copper mines and coal lands in ‘Alaska, They denled with great emphasis that they | were trying to ‘‘gobble up Alaska” or that Delegate Wickersham had ever been au- thorized to act u & lobbyist for the syndi- cate.

Counsel for Secretary Ballinger drew from the witness the fact that up to the | time Mr. Balllnger went out of office as land commissioner in March, 1908, there had | been no evidence of fraud in the Alaska coal cases presented to the department. The Cunningham ‘“journal” which con- tained evidence of an alleged agreement, Glavis, sald, had not been found at that time. However, the witness, doclared that | Mr. Ballinger, in his opinlon, had not acted as & man would If the property had been his own Instead of the government's.
