Reid testifies in government antitrust suit against U.S. Steel
Daniel Reid railroad financier and director in United States Steel testified as the first defendant witness in the government's suit. He described the tin plate trust forming in 1898 with the American Tin Plate company and other plants, noting wages were fixed by yearly meetings but prices were not set there. He said tin plants represented about 90 percent of the industry and discussed stock payments and capitalization as the case explored whether the tin plate companies watered stock and conspired to monopolize output.
