GARY PLANS LEGAL BATTLE IN ATTACK BY UNCLE SAM po ———_— Chairman Tells Small Shareholders Not to Get Scared and Sell Out—Bears Get Busy Again, but Stock Reaches 53 Before the Closing. Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the board of directors of the !uuted States Steel Corporation, to-day began a strong fight to defend the trust from the Government’s equity attack. The declaration of the chairman that the trust had never restrained trade or created a monopoly was backed openly by all of the public and private friends of the cor- poration, and in some quarters the good faith of the suit was attacked. It was the evident purpose of the head of the corporation to contend that the new trust fight is for political purposes. All of the inspired publications that came from trust sources made this line of fight clear. When Wall Street felt the pulse of Steel patient this morning after yesterday's excited race down the to- bor in silde it found the ticker pulsa- tions decidedly weak. The effect of the Government's suit for dissolution of the trust was not offset by the denials of Four Took Airship To See the Ponie Race at Belmont. the official charges made by Judge Elbert H.
