J. MrRae an expert accountant.
The Mcliae report reaches the eor-
elision that the Steel Corporatloi
orerates in restrain of trade and pre
vents competition through a manipu
lation cf rl op through the Infiu
en e of the so-called "'5ary dinner.'
by control of raw materials and
through a sMm of interim klni dim-tors
In various companies. It al
so tends to -ontraJict bophj of II"
tesMmocy given by stee' trust offi
cials.
' Some of the figures dealt with in
the report av- startling. It In shown
that J. P. Morgan & Co received ap-
proximated fiO.Oou.eOii In can re-
fits for organizing the bli s'eel com-
bine and that the net profits of the
concern for the first nine years of Its
exirtin.-e were more than a billion
dollars.
Steel Corporation offbinls object-
ed tn producing theii books before
the committee In this city but con-
sented to place them freely at tin
disposal of i t expert to be named by
the committee. Mr. McRae made a
thorough sitiy of the books nnd min
utes and In his repot t to the com
mltts he pointed oct the.e salient
features
That J. P. Morgan A Co.. hend'w?

were $I.O'!.fiKj.:iR0. on nn e-iulxa-lent
of approximately $13 a tn on
