Steel Trust Report and Tariff Critique by Missouri Leaders
A quarterly report on the steel trust notes three month and annual carpings totaling 26 764 643 and 9147 066 572 respectively. It argues the trust is overvalued with bonds of 364 400 000 and a $1 400 000 000 incorporation, claims profits come from protective tariffs, and denounces trusts as robbery. The piece questions New York public ownership talk and urges principled party declarations.
