Harvester Agents
Accused of Untruth
CHICAGO, Dec. 20. Testimony by olio
manufacturer of harvester machines that
representatives of the International Har
vester company had sought to lure awny
his customers by falso statements wus
given in tho hearing here todnv In the
Bovornmeht's suit to dlswOlvo the Inter
national company an an Illegal 'combina
tion. Copies of advertisements by com
panies alleged to havo been absorbed In
the International company, but who pro
claimed themselves ob "Independents,"
were Introduced in evidence by govern
ment counsel.
The testimony that his customers hod!
been taken from him by misrepresenta
tions was given by A. J. Glass, manager
of tho Adrlanlo Piatt company of PoUgh
kecpsle, N. Y. Mr. Glass said agents of
the International Han-ester company had
told his customers that tho Adrlanlo Piatt
company had been absorbed by tho Inter
national Harvester company and that
they might as well order from Iwadquar-
ters.
"We waited until wo were able to fasten
responsibility for two such statements on
International Harvester company agents
nnd then wo filed two suits for jio.000
each," said Mr. Glass. The International
"nrvestnr company officials
promptly
came around nnd apologized and oskod us
to tfrop tho suits. Vo agreed to do bo If
tVl,. ' ,,,, ,,.,,, . ., .. 1
tne wou'" reimburse to Us the expenses
tho suits had cost us up to that time
They did so and wo dropped tho suits,"
Mr. Glass' testimony as to the suit
met with objection from AVilllom D. Mc
Hugh, counsel for tho International Har
vester company.

Back of tho lack of proper terminal
