"Despite tho efforts of tho mother-In-law

PARIS, Mny U. (Now York World Ca
blegram Rpecl.il Telegram.) When the
question of the annual subsidies to the
French line, running from Havre to New
York, came up In the Chambers, a powerful
group will oppose the renewal of the mall
monopoly and recommend a division of the
subsidy between the Havre company and a
nuw line, which capitalists are ready to
establish from llrest to Now York If .is
surcd of tho government's partial support.
This would give France the shortest ten
crossing and benefit New York with
another lino of great steamers.
Advocates of the now enterprise usert
In their petition that tho Havro company
has alwoyn been behind tho lines of other
nations In speed, slzo and comfort of its
vessels.
"Even now," says tho petition, "It U
building new steamers of a typo considered
obsolete In Germany, Englnnd and Amor-
lea."
It Is also alleged that tho Havro company
so far has successfuly smothered all in
tending competitors by Its Inllucnco with
tho French Chambers and the New York
dock authorities. It Is declared that tralllc
between Now York and Franco has now
almost completely gone to tho American

WASHINGTON, May 11. Mr. Charles M.
Schwab, president of the United States
Steel corporation, wns before tho Industrial
commission toduy. He said that tho United
States Steel company controls eight com
panies by owning their stock, nnd that
while stops nro taken to insure the good
will and co-operation of all theso com
panies, each ono generally Is left to conduct
business In Its own way. As a rule, the
plan had been to take In only companies
which were not competitors, but It was true
that thero were rases In which two Insti
tutions of tho Bamo lino wero brought to
gether, and In such cases tho managers
wero expected to get together In making
their plans for sales.
Enumerating tho advantages of consolida
tlon, Mr. Schwab said they were found es
pecially In the plan of management
nd In tho utilization of all ores
owned. In this connection Mr. Schwab
says tho United States company owns
80 per cent of tho Iron ore of
tho country and ho expressed tho opinion
that theso ore deposits must constantly
grow In value because limited. Tho com
pany makes from 63 to 73 per cent of the
fcteel productH of tho northwest. Ho nlso
Bald thero had been no Incrcaso in tho prlco
of products since tho organization of tho
United Stntes company and that tho ten
dency was toward lower prices.
Discussing the tariff Mr. Schwab ox
pressed tho opinion that on articles of man
ufacture In which labor docs not enter as an
Important factor tho tariff might be re
moved, but In products In which luhor en
ters largely, such, for Instance, us tin plate
It would bo necessary either to reduco
wages or loso trade If tho tariff wero rc
moved. Ho thought that except on tho Pa
clflc tho removal of the tariff would not In
terferc with the production of steel rails
and billets.
ltx .lout a CIcurliiK Mourn-.
Ho ulso stated that his company owns
60,000 acres of Connellsvlll coking coal
land. and that In, Uslrpnmlnes thero nr
5OO,06o,00O,6oo tons of ore In" sight. Ho
thought a reasonable profit on this Iron
ore would be $2 a ton. Asked how long he
thought tho mines would bo able to meet
the demand, Mr. Schwab placed thu limit
on tho Iron oro nt thirty years und tho
coal at sixty. Each of tho constituent
companlcH, ho said, makes its own pur
chases and its own sales.
"In n word," he said, "(he United States
Steel corrporatlon Is a clearing house, to
which Its conBtltutent companies go for
information." Ho admitted that the com
pany sells many of Its products nt a lower
prlco In foreign markets than nt home
saying that this prnctlco Is followed to hold
the markets.
Discussing tho relation of capital to
labor, ho said, that whllo ho would not
undertake to outline tho latum policy ot
tho steel corporation, ho did not endorse
tho policy of tho labor organizations, a
in 'he interest of laboring man himself. Ho
did hone, however, to seo matters so ar
ranged Hint operatives could shrtro In th
profit of tho enterprise. Instead of being
a detriment, he considered the big corpora
tions as affording the best openings fo
labor and enterprise.
"Thjre were never such opportunities for
brains us today," ho Bald. "If I were
laboring man, as I onco was. I Bhould not
want to belong to a labor organization If
employed by a properly munaged corpora
tion, llko tho Btool company, for I would
not want to bo put on a lovel with tho
poorer workman In tho establishment. Thb
tendency Is to give tho highest possible

PARIS, May 11. (New York World Cable
gram Special Telegram.)--J. Plerpont Mor
gan has suddenly changed lilt plans ami
will return to New York by tho ilrst of
the swift llneis. Tho World correspondent
learns that tho first thing Mr. Morgan saw
when ho 1 cached his Purls olllco yesturday
were tho cable dispatches describing
Thursday'!) ilnanclal panic lu Now York.
His comments resounded from tho ltisldo
olllco throughout tho building. Ho flow
Into a towering rage, It Is related, denounc
ing his New York partners, who had taken
ndvautago of his being away at Alx-les-Ilnlns
und nlmost beyond reach, to run
things lu their own way, tangling them-
kcIvcs up In a situation which he had par
ticularly warned them to avoid.
J. Plerpont Morgan did not go to bed
until 1 o'clock this morning. Ho was awuko
at 0 a. 111 because Important New ork
messages had been received. Ilo dictated
answers In bed. Ho got up at 7 o'clock,
left the hotel nt S:S0 nnd drovo to tho Hols
lo lloulognc. Whllo In that purk ho left
IiIb carriage and wnlkcd awhile. Then ho
sat down und seemed to bo lost In deep
thought.
The World correspondent, thinking tho
occasion favorable, ventured again to ask
for an Interview, but thu magnatu threat
ened annihilation nnd ro-entercd tho car
riage, which had been awaiting his pleasure.
Mr. Morgan arrived ot his Paris bank.
tho houuo of Morgan, Hnrjes & Co,, on
Uoulevnrd Hnussmau. at 10:30. Luncheon
was served In his olllco nt 1 p. in. At 1
p. ni. ho drove to his hotel, whero tho
World correspondent approached him.
Without Btopping his rapid walk .Mr. Mor
gan said;
I can't bo Interviewed now. I am leav
ing tomorrow morning for London and sull-
ln gon tho Teutonic fmin Liverpool Wednes
day, If thut may Interest you."
On en the Public .othlnn.
"But. Mr. Morgan." tho World cor
respondent protretcd. "you told, jno yestor-
"Mr Mrtrrratt't. fnHnnni l-rtrt ft I-rllnl.
"Don't you thluk," tho World cor
respondent asked, "that since you uro being
blamed for a panic that has ruined thou
sandH of people and disturbed a wholo na
tion, some statement Is due tho public?
I own thu public nothing," Mr. Morgan
retorted.
Won't you say whether you consider
yourself responslblo?"
"I will say nothing.
"Yesterday," urged tho correspondent,
you thought you might want to glvo ma
something for publication."
I have changed my mind," Mr. Morgan
replied. "If uny communication needs to
bo mado through tho nowspupcrs thoyil get
It In Now York. Good-night."
Then ho disappeared In tho hotel ele
vator. Despite his reticence, tho correspondent
Inferred from Mr. Morgau's general appear-
anco nnd demeanor thut things had been
finally adjusted so ub to give him less con
cern than his haggard looks and wild ways
during tho last two days betrayed.
After tho solitary drive and walk in tho
park early In the morning, during which
Mr. Morgan meditated hard. Often clinching
his hands und muttering lo himself, ho re
turned to his olllco nud worked hard nil
day, denying himself oven to his warmest
friends. Tonight, again, Hanker John Mun
roo called to beo If they could not dine to
gether, but Mr. Morgan barely sent nu cx
cuso, dining in his mom alone.
Tho hotel und bunk people, though well
used to Mr. Morgun' ways, declare they
never saw him In Mich n snarling mood as
ho has been In for theso two days. Ha
hod arranged before tho financial (lurry In
Now York to remain longer In Alx-Ica-Dalns.
