In 1899 when,Judge Moore was try
ing to raise the money to buy out
Carnegie it was deemed advisable to
give certain capitalists an interior
glimpse of the steel trade. President
Schwab of the Carnegie Company
wrote:
“I know positively that England can
not produce pig iron at actual cost for
less than $11.50 a ton and cannot put
pig iron into a rail with most efficient
works for less than $7.50 a ton. This
would make rails at net cost to them
of $19....We can make rails for less
than sl2 a ton, leaving a nice margin
on foreign business. Besides this, for-

When the Steel Trust was formed
we heard a good deal about the impor
tant reduction in cost of production
that it would be able to make by
coordinating all the plants, saving
freights, and the like. But there has
been no reduction in cost to the con
sumer. Year after year the rail pool
has held the price of that staple prod
uct firmly at S2B a ton.
From 1901 to 1906 domestic pro
duction of pig iron increased 9,500,000
tons, or sixty per cent. This might
cheapen the cost of production, but the
selling price of pig iron has increased
about twenty-five per cent. You may
think that you are not a consumer of

steel rails and pig iron. But you are.
You pay for every pound of it.
Last year (1906) the Trust’s net
profits “after deducting the cost of
ordinary repairs, renewals, and main
tenance of plants, and interest on
bonds and fixed charges of subsidiary
companies,” amounted to $156,619,111.
It could have paid a dividend of twen
ty per cent on that half-million bogus
common stock. That it chose to pay
only two per cent and to spend the
remainder in building new plants does
not in the least alter the proposition.
This course, in fact, is simply the
shrewdest way of bolstering up the bo
gus stock.
The bolstering is mighty expensive
to the public. But it must be done.
Otherwise thousands of more or less
innocent persons who have bought the
spurious stuff; banks that have lent
money on it, and the inevitable cue
of “widows and orphans” will suf
fer.
But “shoving the queer,” by no
means a specialty of the “industrials,”
is practiced almost as extensively and
with rather more uniform success in
tho railroad field.
